Chapter 290: The Backer Has Arrived
Upon seeing Luo Xian, the Grand Elder at the tenth level of the Mahayana realm, they all stood up and respectfully bowed to Gu Heng.
Liu Changfeng and Madam Liu turned pale and quickly stood up, no longer daring to sit there and stare at Gu Heng.
"We were blind and did not know that Senior Gu had graced our humble abode. We have truly been impolite!"
Liu Changfeng hurriedly bowed and kowtowed, feeling apprehensive.
Lady Liu quickly bowed as well.
Their expressions were completely different from before.
Liu Yu remained calm and composed, having anticipated this scene. She simply said, "Father, Mother, Young Master Gu doesn't like being called 'senior.' He feels it makes him look too... old, right?" As she spoke, she turned to look at Gu Heng.
"Miss Liu Yu and I have only met twice, yet she understands my thoughts very well."
Gu Heng smiled and said, "That's true. Please don't call me senior. I'm just living a mortal life now, not some senior or expert. You can call me 'Young Master' and I'll accept it."
"In that case, I was being presumptuous..."
Seeing that Gu Heng wasn't putting on airs, Liu Changfeng naturally couldn't continue to act so humble and submissive.
After all, Liu Changfeng never expected that with so many things happening in the capital of Yan today, their Liu residence would actually welcome two important figures one after another!
Moreover, they all have some connection with Liu Yu, no matter how deep or shallow!
Even a brief, close encounter could be a huge windfall for the Liu family.
Not to mention, Yu Yinzi is still quite determined to marry Liu Yu. To be honest, Liu Changfeng is tempted to kneel down before this son-in-law.
Such great thighs are hard to find even with a lantern.
However, Liu Yu still seemed hesitant...
To say hesitant would be an understatement.
She simply didn't want to give herself to that Yu Yinzi!
Gu Heng sat down directly next to Liu Yu, picked up a cup of tea, but put it down after taking a sip; the taste was really not good.
However, he has already achieved the effect he wanted.
With Elder Xiao Tang here, things are much easier. After all, I had just scared him at noon today, forcing him to go on stage and play a tune, which made Elder Xiao Tang quite embarrassed.
They had just met at noon, and he certainly couldn't possibly know that Gu Heng was now a genuine mortal.
He still believed himself to be a powerful expert at the first level of the Saint Realm. Moreover, Xiao Tang was considered to be on Yu Yinzi's side, so his words were more credible.
Didn't you see that Yu Yinzi's guards immediately lowered their stance?
Liu Yu's parents also treated him with utmost respect.
To be honest, Gu Heng wasn't used to others adopting such a humble attitude.
He was even more curious about what would happen if these people discovered they were actually bowing deeply to a mortal…
That would be really fun, wouldn't it?
"...How strange."
Yu Yinzi's gaze lingered on Gu Heng for a long time, filled with many questions.
"Strange, she never mentioned having any connection with any reclusive senior at the Saintly Realm. Could it be that she only met him recently?" "This guy better not interfere with my good time."
He stared at Gu Heng, and Gu Heng stared back at him. However, Gu Heng did not intend to guess what Guan Yuyinzi was thinking; he simply used his "eagle eyes" skill.
The familiar fiery red special effects reappeared around the eyes.
"Name: Yuyinzi"
Age: 27
Cultivation Level: Nascent Soul Stage 6
"The Holy Son of Thousand Sound Valley, the only son of the Valley Master of Thousand Sound Valley, was born from his mother's womb through a special evil method. He possesses the "Demon Sound Body" that can steal 'sound sense'. He is wicked and extremely treacherous and vicious. He has an extremely abnormal possessive desire for women who are good at music."
"Note: This object has no meaning to be alive."
Gu Heng's gaze toward Yu Yinzi subtly shifted.
Oh dear, the system really doesn't give this young man who can play the piano much face, even clearly stating that "there is no meaning to living".
These don't count as hints.
That's already made it clear.
Moreover, the system let Gu Heng know that he had calculated correctly.
That Yu Yinzi is really wicked!
He was forcibly conceived through abnormal means. Regardless of whether it was some kind of evil magic or not, Gu Heng already felt that this person was definitely not a good person when he saw Yu Yinzi's face.
Now, Gu Heng is 100% certain that Yu Yinzi has no normal romantic feelings for Liu Yu, but rather a "distorted possessiveness." No wonder Liu Yu was so happy when she saw him and Bai Feier.
She definitely didn't want to give herself to Yu Yinzi.
It seemed that "lighting the red thread" was inevitable. Even if it wasn't for the system's reward, he naturally couldn't watch Bai Feier's best friend fall into the tiger's den and be unable to recover. Gu Heng silently turned his gaze to the Grand Elder of Thousand Sound Valley.
Name: Luo Xian
Age: 3,744 years old
Cultivation Level: Mahayana Stage Ten
"The Grand Elder of Qianyin Valley is in love with the deceased wife of the Valley Master of Qianyin Valley. The two have been at odds for a long time. The birth of Yuyinzi led to the death of her mother, which left him with great hatred for the Valley Master of Qianyin Valley and her only son. He has the idea of assassinating the Valley Master of Qianyin Valley and seizing the position."
"Note: This object is very ordinary."
Gu Heng smiled subtly.
It seems that this elder is also someone troubled by love.
However, this is not quite the same as the pain of separation that Jiang Lingyun and Jian Xuan experienced. Is this considered the hatred of having one's wife stolen?
Although Gu Heng had discerned that there was likely some untold grudge between Yu Yinzi and Luo Xian, he didn't yet know how to take advantage of it.
But having the secret in hand is like having a ticking time bomb that can be used at any time.
"Sharp Eyes" has only one more target to examine...
Gu Heng then turned his gaze to Liu Yu's retreating figure.
Name: Liu Yu
Age: 18
Cultivation Level: Nascent Soul Stage 1
"The eldest daughter of the Liu family in the Sun Flame Dynasty, she is quiet and unassuming, possesses the 'Body of Ten Thousand Sounds' (first awakening), has excellent comprehension, despises those who love martial arts and fighting, and has a great fondness for men who share her love of music."
Note: This object is extremely special!
Gu Heng no longer feels anything about the word "extremely special".
However, Liu Yu didn't seem to care whether she was special or not. Compared to Yu Yinzi, she was at least quite likable.
He began to plot how to ruin the marriage between the two.
"Heh, it seems the Liu residence is going to be quite lively today."
Yu Yinzi smiled calmly as he saw two "backers" suddenly appear beside Liu Yu. He brushed his hand across the strings of the zither, producing a series of light and melodious notes.
Then, he looked up at Liu Yu, and a chilling glint flashed deep within his gentle eyes.
"Junior sister, our marriage has already been arranged, but you seem to still have some dissatisfaction with it."
"Could you please tell me why?"
"..."
Liu Yu looked up at him, but before she could speak, Liu Changfeng, who was beside her, began to persuade her with a slightly anxious expression.
"Yes, daughter, the Holy Son is a rare top genius in the Eastern Frontier. If you become his Daoist partner, your life will be much easier from now on!"
"Just say yes already!"
