Chapter 323: Who’s The Person You Can’t Offend The Most

Many people would feel the chill creeping up their spines if he directed this look at them.

However, Zhuge Yan’s expression remained unchanged, smiling politely at him instead. “Mr. Jiang.”

Gu Xiqiaio had been thinking of the things that she would need to talk to Zhuge Yan, and hadn’t noticed that Jiang Shuxuan had arrived. Hearing his words only did she notice that the man was indeed here. She turned to look at him. “Brother Jiang?” Had he already resolved the matters in the ancient martial arts world?

“Hello.” Jiang Shuxuan nodded towards Zhuge Yan, but you could tell from his tone that he wasn’t very happy.

Zhuge Yan didn’t take it to heart, and only continued smiling. He turned his gaze towards Gu Xiqiao. “We’ll talk next time then.”

Gu Xiqiao rubbed her temples, nodding. “Yeah, I’ll see you.” She’d have to find another chance to talk to him about the ‘calamity’ and ‘turning point’.

She waved at him, then walked to Jiang Shuxuan’s side. She flashed him a smile and her snow-white face seemingly glowing when she looked at him.

Jiang Shuxuan’s expression didn’t change much, but he nodded lightly at Zhuge Yan, then led her away without another word, his eyes still dark and cold.

Zhuge Yan watched the two leave, before the smile slid off his face, eventually letting out a sigh.

“Wei Xi, is everything packed?” He suddenly asked.

Wei Xi jumped out from behind the door. “Yes, everything is packed, Young Master. But why did you want to suddenly want to go to the ancient martial arts world?”

“The second elder invited me.” Zhuge Yan squeezed the cup in his hand. “I predicted that a calamiity would befall Jiang Shuxuan. If he should one day fall, wouldn’t my chance come then?” Since it was about a fickle thing like fate, who knows?

Chance? What chance? Wei Xi blinked, once again feeling like she couldn’t keep up with what Zhuge Yan was thinking.

“Go and let Chenyan know, get him to bring his luggage and come with us.” Zhuge Yan turned to walk into the villa, suddenly recalling this matter.

Although she didn’t understand why Zhuge Yan was going to bring Wei Chenyan with him, Wei Xi proceeded to carry out his instructions.

“What’s with your expression, Brother Jiang?” Gu Xiqiao poked Jiang Shuxuan’s arm.

Jiang Shuxuan’s face was still dark. “Are you close to that person just now?” And she even played chess with him! And helped him with growing flowers! Flowers! Jiang Shuxuan felt like he had a repeater in his heart, repeating all the words that he thought of.

“Not really.” Gu Xiqiao shook her head, smiling at him.

Jiang Shuxuan breathed a sigh of relief, but still took Gu Xiqiao’s hands, squeezing it tightly.

“Yi Bing, what were the main points that the elders were talking about just now?” Gu Xiqiao turned her gaze to Yi Bing, who was following behind Jiang Shuxuan.

Yi Bing told her everything that happened, word for word, without leaving out anything. He also handed her a bunch of documents. “These are the things that need to be dealt with.”

These were papers that Yi Tong had asked him to hand to Gu Xiqiao, and though Yi Tong didn’t look overly reliable usually, he was really responsible when it came to the bigger matters.

Although Yi Bing didn’t really understand Yi Tong’s meanings, he still brought it over as requested.

“Feng Jiu?” Gu Xiqiao flipped through the papers that she received, narrowing her eyes. She muttered the name again under her breath, and filed the name away for later. “Yi Bing, for the matter in Fairy Lake, go and find the military in this state and they’ll tell you how to settle it... amongst other things.”

Gu Xiqiao pulled out a piece of paper and pen from her pocket, writing all the things that needed to be settled, and gave it to Yi Bing. “Once the things are done, we’ll head back to the ancient martial arts world today.”

Yi Bing took the piece of paper. His eyes widened in surprise and thought that these were things that obviously needed to be settled before they left. It was a list of things to settle the aftermath of Mingzhou, and every method listed down was detailed and concise. It would not have been much different than what Jiang Shuxuan would have instructed them to do.

He had initially thought that they would have to stay in Mingzhou for a few more days, but he didn’t think they’d be able to leave today.

This was the first time Yi Bing had seen Gu Xiqiao behave in such a serious manner. Her calmness and precise handling of things made all doubt disappear from his heart.

He had been worried that with Jiang Shuxuan’s memory loss, the ancient martial arts world would be shaken.

But he had been worried for nothing, Gu Xiqiao had once again surprised him!

“Understood, Miss Gu!” Yi Bing said loudly, leaving excitedly with the paper in hand.

Gu Xiqiao watched him leave before taking Jiang Shuxuan back. Although they didn’t have anything to pack, shoving everything into her inventory, she still had other things to handle.

“Little Hua, you won’t be coming back with me to the capital this time. There are still a lot of things in the Hua family waiting for you to deal with.” Gu Xiqiao had found Hua Youlin, informing him of this.

Hua Youlin was disappointed, but he quickly gathered himself together. “Sister Gu, I’ll head to the capital to look for you as soon as I can.”

“Yeah, I’ll be waiting for you.” Gu Xiqiao rubbed his head gently, her eyes flickering to the other members of the Hua family. “If anyone bullies you, let me know.”

Hua Youlin nodded his head rigorously.

The other members of the Hua family who had all witnessed Gu Xiqiao’s brutality. “...” Who the heck would dare to provoke you? It’s not like they didn’t value their lives!

Then some of them looked at Hua Youlin with little admiration in their eyes.

“Sister Gu, thank you.” Hua Youlin said these words solemnly. He knew that he wouldn’t be standing here, alive, if it weren’t for her.

“Silly.” Gu Xiqiao smiled. “Alright, I’m leaving now.”

Jiang Shuxuan was leaning at the door, waiting for her. He didn’t go in, and while he waited for Gu Xiqiao, he received a call.

Caller: Little Psycho.

Little Psycho? Jiang Shuxuan frowned, there weren’t many numbers on this phone, so it should be someone he knew, and so he took the call. “Little Psycho?”

Shu Chen, who was on the other side of the call: “... I’m your mother!”

Jiang Shuxuan hung up the phone.

Gu Xiqiao came out just as he did, and she asked, “Who was that, Brother Jiang?”

“A liar.” Jiang Shuxuan grabbed her hands, and seeing her doubtful eyes on him, he elaborated, “The name in my phone is ‘Little Psycho’, but she said she’s my mother, so I hung up.”

“...” Gu Xiqiao struggled to open her mouth, and she finally managed to say, “That was really your mother, Brother Jiang.”

Jiang Shuxuan: “...” Then why he heck did he save her number as ‘Little Psycho’?

Gu Xiqiao took his phone from him, and gave Shu Chen a call, giving her a brief summary of what was happening.

Shu Chen was silent for a while, before finally saying, “We’ll talk when you both get home.”

Gu Xiqiao hung up the phone as Jiang Shuxuan watched silently from her side. She gave him a gentle smile, reassuring him, “Don’t worry, it’s fine. Let’s go back first.”

Jiang Shuxuan was comforted immediately, and followed her back.

***

At the same time, Feng Jiu and the great elder were still in a stalemate.

“Great Elder, I don’t care about things in the ancient martial arts world, but what about the internet?” Feng Jiu looked at the great elder, trying to reach a compromise with him. “When things heat up like this, we can’t control the direction in which the winds will blow, especially on the internet where things go viral instantly. It will cause a bigger rebound if anything happens.”

This was Feng Jiu’s biggest worry. In this world, there was no scarier thing than the terrifying speed of new spreading on the internet.

“The internet?” The great elder raised his head, his voice surprised.

Feng Jiu nodded helplessly. “It’s now going viral on the internet, those pictures of your fights have been exposed. How will I explain it to the netizens?”

“I don’t think you need any explanations.” The second elder, who had been basically eating popcorn while he watched the show played out, brushed off Feng Jiu’s concern easily. “Don’t worry, there’ll be someone who’ll take care of this matter for you.”

Take care of it? How the heck will you ‘take care of it’? Feng Jiu said sarcastically in his mind.

He was just so tired of talking to a bunch of stubborn old people! Did they think that the internet was child’s play? Those keyboard warriors could kill people with one sentence, and even if you contacted the original poster to delete their post, it would still spring up somewhere else like bamboo shoots after a rain.

He tried to emphasize this point, and explained the pros and cons to the elders, and finally sighed. “The netizens should be demanding explanations from the country right now, tell me, what should I do?”

At this time, Yi Tong came in from outside, holding a phone in his hands. “Miss Gu has already resolved the matter.”

“Resolved? How was that possible!” Feng Jiu retorted immediately. No one here knew the horrors of the internet better than him, how could it be resolved just by saying the words?

Yi Tong didn’t bother saying anything else, thrusting the phone into his hands.

This person was one of Jiang Shuxuan’s capable subordinates. Feng Jiu didn’t dare to offend him, so he took the phone and looked at the screen. Initially, he had an extremely impatient look on his face, but as he read what was on the screen, he froze.

“I’ve always been an undercover agent sent by Jupiter, now I’ll officially announce that I’ll destroy the earth ”

“OP, you’re nuts, getting my goddess to actually say that she’s an alien from Mars ”

Feng Jiu swiped through several pages of the comments, and they were all along the same lines. The uproar and turmoil that didn’t even have time to sprout had been chopped down and burned before it started.

Weren’t you guys all still questioning it all in the morning?!

Wasn’t this turn of events a little too fast?!

And finally, he realized that the source of the change came from an account named ‘For A Millenium’. Who was this person? The one Weibo that she posted was even more powerful than a Weibo from their officials on Weibo? And there were even so many celebrities who reposted and forwarded it?

Feng Jiu felt his view of the world shatter in that instance!

Forget about Li Yu and Song Guanjing reposting her Weibo, why was it that those famous painters, medical scientists, entrepreneurs... even the professors of A University reposted it?!

“This is Miss Gu’s Weibo,” Yi Tong explained as he took back his phone, flashing a smile at Feng Jiu. “Fortunately for you, Mr. Feng Jiu, you still held some apprehensions towards the ancient martial arts world, and questioned them first. If you had gone straight for Miss Gu, everything would have been too late for you then.”

Once Yi Tong said his piece, he left.

“What did he mean by that?” Feng Jiu was still looking shell shocked, unable to pull himself together.

The great elder gave a sympathetic glance at Feng Jiu. “It’s just as he said.” Then the old man left. He had been going round and round in circles for half a day with this man, but it was all for naught in the end, his words were not as good as Gu Xiqiao’s one sentence in Weibo! Really!

The second elder took a sip of his tea, then patted Feng Jiu on the shoulder. “Mingzhou was initially meant for a dead end. If it weren’t for Miss Gu, not a single soul would be alive there right now. I wanted to remind you of that fact, but you didn’t look in my direction at all. Well, good for you. You’ve offended the one woman in the ancient martial arts world that no one can afford to offend.”

Feng Jiu was already shocked when he heard the first part of the second elder’s sentence, and was even more shocked when he heard the latter part, and couldn’t help but fall into a contemplative silence. “Isn’t Miss Jiang Tong the woman that you can’t afford to offend most?”

“Jiang Tong?” The second elder shook his head. “Jiang Tong has been sent to a cell by Miss Gu, the kind that is never expected to be freed from.”

Feng Jiu’s heart jumped, and he was afraid for a moment it was going to crash out of his chest. He had been avoiding the people that were dangerous and he could ill afford to offend in the ancient martial arts world, but he didn’t expect he would just land himself in hot water with just one wrong move. Thinking back to Jiang Shuxuan’s reaction just now, he finally slumped down in his chair. “... Why didn’t you tell me earlier.”

“I gave you so many looks, and it was all useless like showing them to dogs.” The second elder let out a long sigh. “If she were to just play with the economy a little, the country you’re watching over would tremble and shake three times over from the impact.”

“Don’t try to scare me.” Feng Jiu could already feel all his energy draining from his body.

“Whether or not I’m scaring you, you’ll know it in a few days.” The second elder shook his head, then stood up to leave.

Feng Jiu was still slumped down in his chair, a blank look on his face. He pulled out his own phone, going back to Gu Xiqiao’s Weibo to read her profile. Medical, economical, academic, arts...

He could feel his heart trembling the more he read. All of these people were quite influential in their own field...

What kind of monster had he offended?

“Did you tell him?” The great elder was standing outside, waiting for the second elder to come out.

“He and I both know the matters of the secular world the best.” The second elder thought for a bit, thinking that maybe he was taking a little joy in the others misfortune. “I didn’t expect Miss Gu to move so fast though.”

The great elder gave a weird look at the second elder. “Your tone when you speak of Miss Gu is so respectful now?” Wasn’t he still so skeptical not long ago?

“That’s because we never had close contact.” The second elder clicked his tongue. “Are we leaving today?”

“Yes, Yi Tong and the others have arranged everything,” The great elder said, then he let out a sigh.

“Why are you sighing?” The second elder asked, eyeing the great elder.

“The Peace Squad, do you know what they’re doing?” The great elder didn’t wait for the second elder’s response before continuing, “They’re training! Gods! Go to the back and look at them, they’re cultivating like mad men, they’re working so hard even though they’re already so strong!”

“...” The second elder closed his mouth, afraid that he’d explode the moment he said something.

The group of people from the ancient martial arts world came majestically, and left in the same grand manner.

Before they left, the great elder pulled Jiang Shuxuan aside to exchange a few more words with him. Gu Xiqiao leaned against a tree at the intersection, waiting for him to come out.

As she waited, she played with her phone.

“Miss Gu.” Mo Li was at first going to leave on the flying ark, but there were so many people on it, and so she came down. She didn’t expect that she would see Gu Xiqiao, and she rushed over to greet her. “Why haven’t you left yet?”

“Waiting for someone.” Gu Xiqiao kept her phone away.

Mo Li thought that she was waiting for the Peace Squad, and didn’t ask further. She smiled instead. “Do you know who was the person who saved you that night?”

Hearing these words, Gu Xiqiao narrowed her eyes slightly.

“It’s my brother!” Mo Li said in a low voice, mysteriously. “I’m sure you don’t know him, but I’m telling you, he’s amazing! Of course, you’re also amazing...”

“Your brother?” Gu Xiqiao raised her head, why didn’t she know that he had a younger sister?

“Yes, my brother!” Mo Li said proudly. “But he’s a bit on the cold side, you’ll understand when you meet him.”

“Is that so.” Gu Xiqiao was silent for a moment, before spitting out the words.

She lowered her head, speaking in her mind. “Lil system, I want all the information about Mo Li.”

Jiji, who was talking to some people from the Peace Squad, froze in its place.

“What’s up?” Wu Hongwen looked at it. “Still thinking of asking Er Qiao to give you a tall and mighty body?”

“I’m busy, don’t disturb me.” Jiji gave Wu Hongwen a glance, then focused on searching for the information Gu Xiqiao had asked for in the virtual space.

Mo Li was still chatting away when Gu Xiqiao received the message from Jiji.

A cold chill suddenly fell on the area, and Mo Li stopped talking abruptly, turning around.

Behind them, a tall, imposing figure was walking calmly towards them. The light was behind his back, and the shadows were casted over his front, making it impossible to see his face, but you could still clearly feel the cold aura that the figure exuded.

Even under the sun, you could feel the chills.

“Brother?” Mo Li was taken aback for a moment, not expecting to see him here.

After being stunned, she shivered a little. Probably thinking back to how scary Jiang Shuxuan had been this morning.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Gu Xiqiao from the corner of her eyes. It seemed that the other was also looking at Jiang Shuxuan in a trance, and Mo Li smiled. She sighed a little, just another person dazzled by her brother’s beauty. Sadly, her brother didn’t have a heart.

Back then, countless amazing women had also fallen for his appearance...

Mo Li felt herself thinking too far back, and she turned around to say something to Gu Xiqiao, but before she could, she saw the man coming to a stop not far from them.

“Brother?” Mo Li asked in surprise, did he finally accept that she was his sister?

Jiang Shuxuan was not looking at her, both his eyes were on Gu Xiqiao. His voice was flat as he said, “Let’s go.”

He was talking to Gu Xiqiao!

Mo Li was shocked. She looked at Jiang Shuxuan, then back at Gu Xiqiao, and she couldn’t react for a moment.

WTF?

How did these two know each other?

Why were they together?

And they looked very close!

But how was that possible?!

Mo Li was probably the one who was most aware of Jiang Shuxuan’s identity and position, and it was because she was aware that she was in a state of disbelief. So she looked at Jiang Shuxuan. “Are you crazy, do you want to be the cause of her death?!”
