466: Ask the mother-in-law to come out and suppress Chu Nan

Gu Qing saw that the situation was excellent, and his depressed mood improved.

If all went well, the rumors about him would soon be covered up.

Thinking this, Gu Qing used God King Walking Through Time, arriving in Tianlong Domain in an instant, then used Starlight Escape to stealthily infiltrate the Shi family.

He saw Chu Nan, who had a cold and arrogant expression, looking as if everyone else was drunk and he alone was sober.

Gu Qing was speechless.

He couldn't understand what Chu Nan, a useless son-in-law, was pretending to be.

Even if Chu Nan was incredibly powerful, even if Chu Nan was an Immortal King, wasn't he still being suppressed and humiliated by Shu Miaohua, a Heavenly God Realm expert, and various servants?

So what exactly was Chu Nan pretending to be?

Never mind, the protagonist's thought process is always so peculiar.

Gu Qing was too lazy to investigate; in his eyes, Chu Nan was just a big leek, with a staggering 2.2 million points of destiny.

Chu Nan was the protagonist with the highest destiny and cultivation he had ever encountered.

Since he was idle anyway, he might as well act as a Cao thief for a couple of days.

He would probe Chu Nan's background and harvest some of his destiny, to make sure Chu Nan's destiny wasn't too high and difficult to kill.

If Chu Nan escaped, all his efforts would be in vain.

After all, he was a fated protagonist at the Immortal King realm, so he must have some tricks up his sleeve; it's always better to be cautious.

Thinking this, Gu Qing put on his mask, sent a message to Shi Jingqiong, asking her to come out and receive him.

He communicated with the system in his mind: "System, harvest a little less of Chu Nan's destiny, try not to let him notice."

"Host, he is proficient in..."

"Mother, be sensible. Can't you stop making your son worry all the time? Your son believes Mother definitely has a way to deceive the heavens."

System "..."

"Turn off system broadcast."

Gu Qing silently chanted, then stepped out of the void, his posture tall and straight, exuding a noble aura, as if he were a born royal.

"Ah!!!"

Shi Jingqiong, who was discussing commerce association matters in the reception hall, received Gu Qing's message and suddenly exclaimed.

Her expression was joyful, and she stood up, Excited.

After so many years, her little man had finally come to visit her; he hadn't forgotten her.

"President..."

"What happened?"

Everyone looked puzzled, not understanding why Shi Jingqiong, who was usually dignified, steady, incredibly capable, and unflappable in the face of disaster, suddenly lost her composure.

Could it be that the Shi family had suffered a major upheaval?

Shi Jingqiong was the Shi family patriarch and also the president of the Shi family's Tianbao Commerce Association.

She wielded great power within the Shi family, and it was said she had a connection with Gu Qing, always deeply cooperating with the Starry Sky Commerce Association.

Therefore, after the Shi family's Old Ancestor passed away, the family not only did not decline but became even more prosperous.

Under Shi Jingqiong's leadership, the Shi family almost doubled its assets, and for a family of their size, doubling assets meant an astronomical sum.

Shi Jingqiong could be said to possess both power and beauty; even when facing Long Tianyu, the Dragon Emperor of the Tianlong Dynasty, an Immortal King late-stage powerhouse, she could converse with ease.

Shi Jingqiong's status was extremely noble; everyone wanted to gain her connections and get involved with Gu Qing.

It was precisely because of this that Shi Jingqiong was coveted by Long Tianyu, who wanted to bring her into his harem.

There were also other Immortal Kings who likewise wanted to take this temptress, Shi Jingqiong.

However, Shi Jingqiong had always refused them with various excuses.

Now that Shi Jingqiong was so flustered, could it be that an Immortal King giant was going to forcibly marry her?

Or had the cooperation with the Starry Sky Commerce Association encountered problems?

It didn't look like it.

Shi Jingqiong's excitement seemed more like good news had arrived.

"Nothing!"

Shi Jingqiong realized her gaffe, immediately reined in her excitement, restored her usual calm wisdom, and said with a faint smile.

"A distinguished guest has arrived; today's meeting ends here."

"Yes, President."

Everyone was overjoyed.

Someone who could be considered a distinguished guest by Shi Jingqiong, and who made her so excited, was likely someone from the Boundless Divine Sect.

As long as they latched onto the Boundless Divine Sect's leg, their Shi family would only become more prosperous.

Shi Jingqiong, accompanied by a few beautiful young women, stepped out briskly to greet him.

"Qing Gongzi, welcome!" Shi Jingqiong's voice was melodious and pleasant, like heavenly music.

Her lotus-like face held a smile, her posture graceful and elegant; every gesture and smile exuded a myriad of charms, breathtakingly beautiful.

Chu Nan, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, was stunned by Shi Jingqiong's beautiful and ethereal smile, gazing at her infatuatedly.

After being married to Shi Jingqiong for so many years, Shi Jingqiong had never smiled at him like this.

Beautiful, too beautiful!

His wife was simply a reincarnated celestial fairy.

No, even celestial fairies weren't as beautiful as his wife.

Thinking this, Chu Nan's mouth curled into a self-satisfied smile.

"Hm!"

Gu Qing responded indifferently, then turned to look at the self-satisfied Chu Nan and asked, "What are you smiling about?"

Chu Nan's smile instantly froze, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, then he shrugged nonchalantly and said faintly.

"This young master, what I smile about is none of your business. Aren't you being a bit too meddlesome?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was first stunned, then their eyes blazed with anger.

This useless fellow, did he not know that this was a distinguished guest whom even Mrs. had to come out to greet?

Was he someone Chu Nan could offend?

Everyone glared angrily at Chu Nan.

Especially the gate guards; if it weren't for the rules, they would have rushed up and hacked Chu Nan to death.

"Indeed, it has nothing to do with me."

Gu Qing smiled indifferently and said, "I guess you must be proud that you have such a beautiful wife as Miss Shi, right? What a pity..."

At the end, Gu Qing shook his head with a look of regret, silently adding in his heart, 'It's a pity your celestial fairy wife is already mine.'

'You can continue to be self-satisfied and fantasize here.'

"Hmph!" Everyone heard this and immediately looked at Chu Nan with disdain, their eyes filled with contempt and disgust.

A mere useless person who couldn't cultivate, yet he dared to fantasize about Shi Jingqiong; using 'toad' wasn't enough to describe Chu Nan's deluded fantasies.

Chu Nan's face suddenly turned ugly.

Having his thoughts guessed wasn't scary, but having them exposed in public was.

"What are you doing here? Go back quickly, there's nothing for you here."

Shi Jingqiong said sternly to Chu Nan.

Chu Nan heard this and immediately smiled.

His celestial fairy wife was indeed different from these snobbish ants.

She was always protecting him, afraid he would be retaliated against by Gu Qing.

But... Chu Nan's mouth curved upwards, but his wife might never know that he, Chu Nan, was a heaven-defying War God, who had already attained the Immortal King Dao Fruit.

He also held a mysterious and powerful force in his hands; half of the reason Shi Jingqiong's business was going so smoothly was due to his efforts.

It was he who secretly escorted the Tianbao Commerce Association, having his subordinates openly and secretly send various cooperation opportunities.

Powerful as he was, he didn't need his wife's protection at all.

This 'Qing Gongzi' fellow, to him, was just an insignificant small fry whom he could crush with a flick of his hand.

However, his wife protecting him so much still warmed his heart.

His seemingly sternly scolding wife, at this moment, looked utterly adorable in his eyes.

Chu Nan's mouth curved wildly upwards, and he left happily.

Of course, he didn't fully leave; he just hid in the shadows.

Last time, this 'Qing Gongzi' escaped; this time, Chu Nan decided to personally act and crush Qing Gongzi.

A dragon has reverse scales; touching them means death.

Last time, Qing Gongzi constantly tripped him up in front of his beautiful Mother-in-law, causing him much suffering.

Those things weren't much, but the crucial point was that his stunningly beautiful Mother-in-law still hadn't forgiven him and tormented him in various ways every day.

Such a great grudge, Chu Nan wanted to avenge it every moment.

"Qing Gongzi, please follow me!"

Shi Jingqiong made a gesture of invitation, inviting him to her back garden, and ordered all the servants to leave.

"Wait!"

Gu Qing stopped Shi Jingqiong, who was about to pounce on him. Chu Nan was still watching from the shadows, and the system's messages about harvesting destiny hadn't stopped.

How could he miss such a good opportunity to harvest destiny?

"Chu Nan is still secretly peeking. Let your Mother come over and keep a close eye on him, and torment him well!" Gu Qing transmitted.

With Shu Miaohua, that tigress, making a move, she would definitely be able to suppress Chu Nan.

And he, only needed to chat and flirt with Shi Jingqiong here, enjoying the romantic scenery... wouldn't destiny just pour in?

When Chu Nan's destiny couldn't be harvested anymore, it wouldn't be too late for him to kill Chu Nan.

Speaking of which, Chu Nan's Mother-in-law seemed to also be his Mother-in-law; inviting his Mother-in-law to suppress the protagonist was perfectly fine.

"Alright, alright!"

Shi Jingqiong blinked her beautiful eyes, somewhat not understanding what was the point of Gu Qing tormenting Chu Nan?

If he disliked Chu Nan, wouldn't it be better to just kill him?

Why bother adding to his own troubles?

Gu Qing wasn't some pervert who enjoyed tormenting people either.

However, Gu Qing was her kept 'little man'—though it was her unilateral keeping.

Whatever her 'little man' said, that's what it was.

"Chu Nan, get out here!"

Shu Miaohua's voice arrived before she did.

Her melodious voice was filled with anger.

Chu Nan's cold and indifferent eyes, upon hearing his Mother-in-law arrive, immediately flinched in fright.

He immediately stepped out of the spatial rift, standing on the bluestone path, Chu Nan trembled, meekly lowering his head.

He was secretly smug.

His acting was simply superb; even his shrewd Mother-in-law hadn't noticed anything suspicious after all these years.

However... Chu Nan was somewhat puzzled. Why was his Mother-in-law looking for him now?

He knew that he had pulled all the weeds in the garden, and all the exotic flowers and plants were neatly trimmed.

Even the bluestone path was wiped clean.

And the servants' latrines, he had cleaned them too.

Thinking this, Chu Nan became even angrier at "Qing Gongzi."

The Shi family had dedicated servants to tend the garden, and the bluestones on the path were actually treasures, engraved with array patterns, so why would they need wiping?

The servants' latrines were even more absurd.

They were all Immortal Sages, so how could they have bodily waste?

Yet, his Mother-in-law, to torment him, specifically brought back some mortals, tormenting him in various ways every day.

It was all Qing Gongzi's fault; if he hadn't been tricked last time, he wouldn't have been tormented by his Mother-in-law like this.

His Mother-in-law wouldn't still refuse to forgive him.

If it weren't for Qing Gongzi's instigation, he would still be happily bringing his incomparably beautiful Mother-in-law foot-washing water every day.

To see his noble and elegant Mother-in-law every day, what a carefree and divine life that would be.
