137: C137 To the Cold House

C137 To the Cold House

Just when Gu Yuan was ready to make his move with a murderous look in his eyes, the two elders turned pale with fright.

Leng Xue who had been silent at the side suddenly spoke out: "He is a member of my Leng Family, if you want revenge, come to my Leng Family, you can scram now."

Leng Xue's words stunned the two elders for a moment. Then, as if they had received amnesty, they hurriedly dragged Qin Shou and ran, completely ignoring Qin Shou's suicidal clamor.

Gu Yuan looked at Leng Xue in surprise, ignoring Qin Shou and the other two who were running away.

Feeling Gu Yuan's probing gaze, the usually cold Leng Xue suddenly became unnatural. As if she didn't dare to look Gu Yuan in the eye, she could only lower her head slightly and avoid Gu Yuan's gaze, at the same time she said: "You only offended them because you helped me, so even though Qin Family are difficult to deal with, I'm not afraid. Moreover, it's they who are unreasonable first."

Gu Yuan understood that Leng Xue was disguising herself to help him.

"Thank you."

Hearing Gu Yuan's words of thanks, Leng Xue nodded her head, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I wonder what young master's plans are for next, why don't you visit my Leng Family for a few days first."

Gu Yuan was a bit hesitant in the face of Leng Xue's invitation. However, when he thought of Qin Shou's resentful gaze when he left, he still agreed.

Right now, Gu Yuan needed time to develop and should not cause too much trouble. Since Leng Xue was willing to help him settle his Qin Family, Gu Yuan naturally would not refuse.

The two of them walked out of the inn, towards the Leng Family.

Speaking of which, this city was only a city with relatively remote Black Turtle Empire, and was not the core region.

Qin Family and Leng Family were also not here, it was just that the two families had properties in the city, and because of some other reasons, Qin Shou and Leng Xue had appeared here.

Leng Xue had previously given him the impression that the other party would be a person who didn't like to talk. At the very least, he wouldn't talk too much with someone he wasn't familiar with.

Along the way, Leng Xue seemed to be very talkative. She took the initiative to tell Gu Yuan about the four noble families and also told him the reason why they were here.

"Relic?"

Leng Xue nodded and said, "Rumor has it that it's an ancient ruin that suddenly appeared. However, it seems like the relic's level isn't high, and I suspect that it was left behind by the Nascent Soul or Exemplary stage Cultivator."

"Outgoing stage?" Is it the level of strength after the Nascent Soul Stage? "

Facing another new term, Gu Yuan showed his ignorance once again.

After talking to Gu Yuan and questioning him a few times along the way, Leng Xue was completely sure that Gu Yuan didn't come from a big force. It was very possible that he was from a small family, or even just a commoner who had fortuitous encounters.

Otherwise, he wouldn't not even know some basic knowledge.

This also made Leng Xue more surprised by Gu Yuan's talent in cultivation. Although she still didn't know what level Gu Yuan had reached, but seeing that he was able to defeat two Aurous Core stage experts in one shot, it could be seen that he was at least stronger than her.

It was a young man who was even younger than him, but whose strength was also higher than his!

Stealthily glancing at Gu Yuan's handsome face, Leng Xue blushed again. Luckily, there was white sand covering her face so Gu Yuan didn't see it.

Leng Xue couldn't help but think back to the time at the inn when Gu Yuan sent the two old men flying with a single blow. Looking down from the second floor at the handsome figure, Leng Xue's heartbeat started to quicken.

Seeing that Leng Xue suddenly lowered her head as she walked, talking to him as if she didn't hear him, thinking that he had suffered some kind of injury in the inn, Gu Yuan asked, "Are you alright?"

"Ah!" "Nothing, nothing." Leng Xue was shocked by Gu Yuan's voice and hurriedly replied.

Seeing Leng Xue's panicked look, Gu Yuan felt that Leng Xue was weird. She gave him a different impression than before, but Gu Yuan didn't know why. He scratched his head and ignored her.

Very quickly, the two of them reached the Leng Family located in the city.

Even though it was only a place that resembled a courtyard house, and even Gu Yuan suspected that no one from the Leng Family would come here to stay often, this house was still extremely spacious, no weaker than the Gu family which possessed the Qiuyun City back then.

This was only a house with casual Leng Family, which showed how rich and powerful the Leng Family was.0

This time, because of the appearance of the ruins, the four great families all came. What Gu Yuan noticed was that the cultivation sects also participated, and only the Five Elements Sect, which was a top sect like the Mighty Heavenly Sword Sect, came. Most of the other sects came from first-rate cultivation sects, so their overall strength was only comparable to the four great clans.

The reason why the top sects only came to the Five Elements Sect was because it was rumored that this relic was left behind by a senior who was proficient in Five Elements magic.

There were three people sent by Leng Family this time, one of them was Leng Xue's family's uncle, Leng Xiu, whose strength was at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, and the other one was called Leng Ning, Leng Xue's half-sister. His talent was also not bad, he was five years younger than Leng Xue, but had the strength of an early Jindan Stage.

During this exploration event, every clan sent out talented or promising juniors, led by one or two elders, to train their juniors.

Of course, Qin Shou was an exception.

With Leng Xue's introduction, Gu Yuan met Leng Xiu and Leng Xue's sister Leng Ning.

The people of Leng Family, because of their cultivation technique, gave off a relatively cold feeling. Leng Xiu was a middle-aged man with a stern face, and perhaps it was because of his age that Leng Ning was not so cold, but instead quite lively.

Seeing her older sister suddenly bring back a man who was about the same age as her and was quite good-looking, she naturally began to size him up with curiosity.

As Leng Xue repeated what had happened in the tavern to Leng Xiu, Leng Xiu's originally cold face became even gloomier. Finally, he slammed the table and cursed: "You're courting death!"

Even Leng Ning was flushed with anger.

"Hmph, this Qin Shou ate the heart of a bear and guts of a leopard, and actually dared to hit my sister's attention. No, this matter can't be let go like this. I'm going to get even with that Qin Shou."

After speaking, Leng Ning stood up to leave, but was held down by Leng Xue.

Seeing how Leng Ning's face was filled with rage, as if she was fearless and determined to avenge her sister, Gu Yuan suddenly felt that this little girl was extremely adorable.

Qin Family has sent two experts this time, and one of them is even stronger than me. If we make a move, we will be at a disadvantage, and we will first explore the ruins, and when we return, we will definitely find justice. "

Leng Xue nodded. This was exactly what she was thinking. Besides, Qin Shou was just a useless playboy in her eyes. With her personality, she couldn't be bothered to argue with him.

After Leng Xiu said this, he looked towards Gu Yuan. His face was no longer as cold as before, but a lot more relaxed as he said, "Thank you, Young Hero, for saving me earlier."

Gu Yuan smiled and said, "It's alright, that Qin Shou is indeed going too far. If it was anyone else, they would not stand idly by."
