455: Gu's plan

As an Emperor Family, the Gu Family was fully capable of squeezing out Su Changqing's last bit of value.

Upon hearing this, the Elders exchanged glances.

Since that was the case, they had nothing more to say.

The Grand Elder nodded.

If that were the case, he could accept it.

"Moreover, looking at Su Changqing's demeanor today, he is extremely satisfied with the conditions offered by my Gu Family, which indicates he also has weaknesses. Once he and Huanmeng have a child, he will no longer be able to extricate himself."

Gu Tianxing chuckled, calculating his gains.

"The Family Head is far-sighted."

The Grand Elder stopped speaking, smiled and nodded, then sat down.

........

On the other side, inside Su Changqing's residence.

Gu Huanmeng pushed the door open and saw Su Changqing cultivating on the bed. She smiled softly and said:

"Su Gongzi is truly diligent, no wonder he has achieved so much in such a short time. He is truly an unparalleled Prodigy."

Su Changqing opened his eyes. Facing Gu Huanmeng's flattery, the corner of his mouth curved slightly upwards. He then got off the bed and walked to Gu Huanmeng's side.

"Fairy Huanmeng overpraises me."

Gu Huanmeng said gently:

"This is Su Gongzi's first time visiting my Gu Family. How about this young lady takes Young Master out for a stroll?"

"Alright."

Su Changqing naturally wouldn't refuse.

Soon, the two left the courtyard.

Along the way, Gu Huanmeng introduced various buildings of the Gu Family to Su Changqing.

The entire Small World was the Gu Family's territory.

Soon, the two walked to the Gu Family's training ground.

This place occupied a vast area, surrounded by Gu Family Disciples, each with strong cultivation, the weakest being True Immortal cultivation.

These were all young Prodigies of the Gu Family.

Outside, they would definitely be famous Prodigies.

It must be said that the Gu Family's Immortal Emperor Bloodline truly had something special.

Just then, several figures walked towards them.

"Huanmeng, is this the so-called Immortal Realm Prodigy that the Family Head mentioned?"

The leading man spoke with an unkind expression.

"Cousin Gu Xuan, he is Su Changqing, and also the husband my father chose for me."

As she spoke, Gu Huanmeng's pretty face flushed shyly, and she then moved closer to Su Changqing.

Seeing this, Gu Xuan's expression turned quite ugly.

All this time, he had a certain admiration for his cousin, and with his ability as the Family's number one Prodigy, he was fully capable of marrying Gu Huanmeng.

But he never expected that Gu Tianxing would marry Gu Huanmeng to such an unknown young man like Su Changqing.

What kind of damn number one Prodigy?

I am a dignified Emperor Family!

"Young man, with just your Immortal Lord Late Stage, you dare to call yourself the number one Prodigy of the Immortal Realm? Is there no one left in the Immortal Realm?"

"If you have the guts, let's have a match today and I'll show you what the might of an Emperor Family is!"

Coldness emanated from Gu Xuan's eyes.

He was an Immortal Venerable Early Stage fighter, the Gu Family's number one Prodigy, and his true combat power was even stronger than those Immortal Venerable Middle Stage practitioners.

Ever since he started cultivating, he had always been the Gu Family's number one Prodigy, possessing a special Physique, and his cultivation speed was even more outstanding. At a young age, he had already stepped into the Immortal Reverent Realm, which was simply incomparable to any random person.

However, before Su Changqing could speak, Gu Huanmeng, who was beside him, spoke first:

"Brother Changqing is a guest of my Gu Family. Cousin Gu Xuan, are you trying to slap my Gu Family's face by doing this?"

This sudden act of protectiveness made Su Changqing's heart feel warm... like hell.

Perhaps others couldn't tell, but how could Su Changqing not understand such obvious 'tea art' behavior?

Calling her a 'green tea' wouldn't be an exaggeration.

This action seemed to be protecting Su Changqing, but in reality, it was a more subtle way of provoking conflict between Gu Xuan and Su Changqing, thereby making them fight.

The purpose of such a move was very clear.

Firstly, it was to make Gu Huanmeng stand on Su Changqing's side, to win Su Changqing's favor.

Secondly, this was probably the Gu Family's test.

They wanted to see if Su Changqing's talent and combat power were truly as terrifying as rumored, and this Gu Family's number one Prodigy, Gu Xuan, was the best touchstone.

As long as Su Changqing easily defeated the opponent, he would be acknowledged by the Gu Family.

A plan to kill two birds with one stone.

As expected, Gu Xuan was enraged.

His face was terribly gloomy as he pointed at Su Changqing and said:

"You, surnamed Su, what kind of ability is it to cower behind a woman? If you have the guts, stand out and compete with me!"

The corner of Su Changqing's mouth curled slightly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

An idiot is an idiot.

However... he didn't mind giving this idiot and these fools from the Gu Family a lesson.

Su Changqing smiled and wrapped his arm around Gu Huanmeng's soft slender waist, then squeezed the edge of her right hip firmly.

Hmm... not bad.

The feeling was very good.

This action made Gu Huanmeng's pretty face blush, but she stood calmly beside Su Changqing, without any thought of leaving, and even felt a faint sense of joy in her heart.

After all, this was enough to prove her charm.

But Su Changqing's actions made Gu Xuan and the Gu Family Disciples even more furious. Their eyes glowed with anger.

Gu Huanmeng was the Gu Family's favored daughter, the object of pursuit for countless Disciples, yet she was humiliated by Su Changqing in such a public manner.

This was simply... going too far!

"Alright, I can compete with you, but I don't like to compete with people for free."

Su Changqing said unhurriedly.

Gu Xuan was already worked up. He snorted:

"Speak, what do you want to compete for!"

Su Changqing said with a smile:

"When competing with me, it's not about what I want to compete for, but what you have. All your valuable possessions. If I win, the items are mine. If I lose, I'll give you double."

After speaking, Su Changqing explored the lower edge of Gu Huanmeng's body again, then squeezed it once more.

Hmm... very smooth.

This scene instantly enraged Gu Xuan and the Gu Family Disciples.

"Alright, I'll gamble with you!!!"

With that, Gu Xuan began to count all the cultivation resources on his person, two spatial rings full to the brim.

Seeing this, the surrounding Gu Family Disciples all took out their long-treasured cultivation resources, vowing to bankrupt Su Changqing.

In an instant, thousands of Gu Family Disciples placed their bets.

Before Su Changqing, there were already dozens of spatial rings filled with countless resources.

"Is this all? Do you dare to gamble!"

Gu Xuan said coldly, a hint of killing intent flickering in his eyes.

As long as Su Changqing dared to step onto the arena with him, he would make sure Su Changqing died without a complete corpse today.

"Of course."

Looking at the countless cultivation resources before him, Su Changqing's face was calm, but his heart was already blooming with joy.

So many cultivation resources, it was probably even more abundant than the Immortal Wind Sect's Sect treasury.

This trip was truly not in vain.

The Gu Family still had many good people.

"Then let's go to the arena!"

Gu Xuan's eyes were fixed on Su Changqing's hand on Gu Huanmeng, wishing he could chop it off right now.

"Alright, no problem."

Su Changqing said with a smile.
