patreon.com/StarMoon10 for Advance Chapter “In short, I will not allow anyone to trample and abuse the young miss!” Upon learning that the young miss’s chastity was still intact, Gu Yao seemed to breathe a huge sigh of relief.
Following Gu Zhen’s words, he also took the opportunity to put away his sword, threw out a not-very-convincing harsh remark, and prepared to turn and leave.
“Wait.” Having just heard the conversation between the two and roughly understood the whole situation, the cold-faced Gu Hua spoke.
As the chief of the Elder Council, he could not allow any internal strife within the clan.
“Since you have already fought, the four of us will speak clearly today to avoid future suspicions that harm both others and ourselves.” The always silent Gu Xing spoke.
This Gu Xing was the direct son of the previous previous generation clan leader.
He was rigid, honest, and kind, always ready to help.
He had given much guidance and help to the younger generations in the clan and was a great good person in the Ancient Clan.
Although he only had three-star battle saint cultivation, his foundation was extremely solid.
His family-inherited techniques followed the path of great skill appearing clumsy, pure solid brute force.
In a real fight, even the five-star battle saint Gu Hua might not gain any advantage against him.
Gu Xing had just passed one thousand years old.
He had a happy family, married young, and had two sons and one daughter, all inheriting his honest and kind character.
In the clan, he did not compete or fight, worked steadily, helped when there was difficulty, and reached when there was trouble.
Any Ancient Clan member who mentioned the Gu Xing family would give a thumbs up and praise them.
After the Double Emperor War, Gu Xing was strongly pushed into the Elder Seat by the clan.
Out of his own lack of interest in fame and profit, Gu Xing spoke very little in the Elder Council and mostly followed the crowd.
But whenever he opened his golden mouth, out of deep respect for Gu Xing’s character, the other three saints would mostly listen to his opinions.
Seeing Gu Xing speak, the four knew that today they must speak clearly.
Gu Zhen sighed, quickly pondering in his heart the prepared rhetoric he had calculated a thousand times so that the other three could accept it.
Gu Yao put away his green water black sword first, flew back to the council hall entrance, used his cultivation to quickly repair the broken door and tables and chairs.
Upon careful reflection, the earlier fight was indeed somewhat improper, but the young miss was his bottom line, and no one could cross it.
The four returned to the table in the council hall and sat down again.
At this time, Gu Hua spoke coldly: “You two both know the effects and power of the Soul Locking Emperor Array.
Have you also tried the two methods Soul Emperor mentioned?” “The first time I went, it took about eleven hours.
Using my own battle energy to guide the young miss’s into the array was quite inefficient, but it was indeed effective.” Upon hearing Gu Hua, Gu Yao spoke first.
The first time in his life he had such intimate contact with the person he loved, he had been overly stimulated upon returning.
He dreamed of Xun’er’s figure every night and had been in a daze for several days before recovering.
He secretly hoped in his heart that the young miss belonged only to him, Gu Yao, and had indeed not revealed his thoughts to the other three after returning.
Only when he could not help but draw his sword against Gu Zhen earlier did he sort it out and reveal the key points.
“What about you?” Gu Hua looked at Gu Zhen sinisterly.
“I, I…
ahem…
ahem…
you all know me.
Soul Emperor’s second method is indeed effective.
After the young miss has…
has…
physical reactions, her battle energy does drop sharply…” After coughing dryly a few times, Gu Zhen decided to tell the truth.
Everyone present was an old fox who had cultivated for hundreds of years.
Being frank would be more convincing.
Gu Zhen paused, then continued: “I know what I did was truly presumptuous toward a beauty.
You probably also know that I have always admired the young miss.
Soul Emperor’s move is extremely vicious, pointing straight at what I desire in my heart.
But I, Gu Zhen, a dignified Ancient Clan Elder and three-star battle saint, although I act romantically, am definitely not some lecherous flower-plucking villain.
I have never forced anyone in my life.
Back then, the saintesses of the Flame Clan and Spirit Clan…
uh…
uh…
never mind.” Speaking of the two saintesses of the Flame Clan and Spirit Clan, Gu Zhen could not help but recall being chased all over the world by Gu Yuan in the clan and choked for a moment.
“In short, it is true that I disrespected the young miss, but I have also made plans.
When the young miss wakes up, I will tell her everything without deception.
At that time, I, Gu Zhen, will end my own life before the young miss, without a second word.” Gu Zhen’s words were said with great vigor and grandeur, quite skilled.
Even Gu Yao could not help but look at him a few more times, nodding in his heart to this frank and responsible clansman.
Little did he know that Gu Zhen had prepared a full set of rhetoric long ago, refined thousands of times in his mind, just waiting to explain to them.
He knew that when the young miss really woke up, with Xun’er’s temperament and the current situation of the Ancient Clan, it was absolutely impossible for her to let Gu Zhen actually commit suicide.
This feeling of righteous grandeur at others’ expense was truly wonderful.
“I agree.
As Gu Zhen said, I also saw early on that Soul Emperor’s move was to cause internal strife among us four.
Thinking about it now, it is truly terrifying.
Playing with people’s hearts is the specialty of the Soul Clan.
We must not fall into his trap and kill each other.” As expected, Gu Hua strongly supported Gu Zhen.
“Since Gu Zhen said the young miss still has the Heavenly Flame protecting her, her chastity is temporarily safe.
Then what we do to wake the young miss is also an emergency measure.
When the young miss wakes up, for the sake of the young miss and the Ancient Clan, and the future great war with Soul Emperor, we had no choice.
Afterward, the four of us will each go to Qing Ning Small Building to plead guilty and accept punishment.” Gu Hua was worthy of being cunning and insidious.
He immediately read Gu Zhen’s thoughts, added a grandiose reason to the dark act of disgracing the beauty, and made it unquestionable.
