Chapter 3655 Don’t judge a person by appearance
Inside a bedroom in the Gu Family residence, a Middle-aged Man stood with his hands behind his back, his expression terribly grim.
Before him were two sickbeds, surrounded by over a dozen doctors, all looking solemn and apprehensive.
"How is it? Can my sons' injuries be cured or not?"
The Middle-aged Man was Gu Qingya, the head of the Gu Family. Lying on the beds were Gu Jinnian and Gu Qianzhou, who had been crippled by Ye Bufan.
Among the many doctors, a white-haired old man was the leader.
"Family Head, the young masters' injuries are truly too severe. We are powerless!"
They were just ordinary doctors, and Gu Jinnian had been completely severed, leaving them utterly helpless. They could only provide simple wound treatment.
"Useless! All of you are useless! What good is it to me to keep you?"
Gu Qingya only had this one son, and now he had become a eunuch. It would be false to say he wasn't furious.
He raised his hand and swept it, and a violent surge of Qi directly knocked everyone out of the room.
Gu Jinnian lay on the bed, originally holding onto a sliver of hope. Hearing that he was destined to become a eunuch, his expression immediately turned ferocious and enraged.
"Father, you must avenge us! You must destroy the Luo Family! You must kill that pretty boy!
And send that little slut to a brothel, let them all die a horrible death…"
This guy was utterly enraged. As the young family head of the Gu Family, he had always been accustomed to acting domineeringly. When had he ever suffered such a great loss?
The most crucial thing was that he had now completely become a cripple. What about all those beautiful women snatched into the family? How could he continue to act recklessly in the future?
Gu Qianzhou also had a venomous expression: "Big Brother, you are now a Great Luo Immortal. Destroying the Luo Family is as easy as turning over your hand. You must avenge us!"
It turned out that just two hours earlier, Gu Qingya had emerged from his seclusion, Undergoing Tribulation successfully, and Breaking through the Bottleneck of Great Supreme Immortal, becoming a Great Luo Immortal in one fell swoop.
Originally, this was an extremely joyous occasion, but he didn't expect to return and find his younger brother and son in such a state.
Although he was furious, he was, after all, a family head, and his cunning was terrifying. He quickly suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Alright, don't say anything more for now. This revenge must be taken, but not now. The Luo Family cannot be touched for the time being."
"Father, why? You should go and destroy the Luo Family now, kill that pretty boy and that little slut!"
Gu Jinnian's face was filled with resentment and unwillingness, wishing he could dismember Ye Bufan right now.
"What do you know?"
Gu Qingya said, "Now that my Gu Family has the assistance of an Eighth-Rank Immortal Pill Master, our strength is rapidly increasing. But no matter what, there's still a certain gap with Dragon Head Mountain.
If we were to destroy the Luo Family at this time, it would be equivalent to personally destroying the Three Families Alliance. What would be the consequence?"
"This…"
Upon hearing him say this, both Gu Qianzhou and Gu Jinnian's expressions froze, as if they had thought of something.
Gu Qingya continued, "If the Luo Family is destroyed, then there will be no arena battle for the Three Families Alliance.
At that time, my Gu Family would directly face Dragon Head Mountain to compete for the Immortal Herb Valley's resources. Do you think, with our current strength, how much chance of winning do we have?"
Gu Qianzhou hesitated, "There's no chance of winning at all."
For so many years, he naturally knew the strength of the three families very well: the Luo Family was the weakest, and Dragon Head Mountain was the strongest.
Even if the Gu Family's strength had improved now, they were still not a match.
"So the Luo Family must be destroyed, but now is not the time. It must wait until after the Three Families Alliance."
Gu Qingya's eyes gleamed, "According to the current development momentum of my Gu Family, in the next hundred years, we will be able to completely crush Dragon Head Mountain. At that time, Immortal Herb Valley will belong solely to my family."
He spoke with reason, but Gu Jinnian was filled with unwillingness.
"But, Father, are we just going to swallow this insult?"
"Who said we are going to tolerate it? This debt must be settled with the Luo Family."
Gu Qingya's expression was sinister, his face ferocious.
"Revenge doesn't necessarily mean attacking the Luo Family. It can also be done on the Three Families Alliance arena.
At that time, during the family head's battle, I will crush that little slut's bones one by one, completely getting this revenge for you.
The others are the same. As long as you encounter anyone from the Luo Family, beat them to death. Don't show them any mercy!"
Gu Jinnian shouted hatefully, "And that Ye, as long as he steps onto the arena, he must not be allowed to leave alive. He must be dismembered!"
Gu Qingya's Killing Intent surged: "Don't worry, those who offend my Gu Family will never have a good end!"
Early the next morning, inside the Dragon King Palace, Luo Bingyan sat cross-legged, completely unclothed, Cultivating.
Her skin was as clear as jade, her face was peerlessly beautiful, and her aura was cold and elegant. She looked like a jade figure carved from beautiful jade.
Ye Bufan stood beside her. Even though he was accustomed to seeing beautiful women, he was still amazed by the beauty before him.
Facing such a perfect woman, no man could control the admiration in his heart, which was one of the reasons he ultimately chose to accept her.
Recalling the scenes from last night, a smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth, and a thought popped into his mind: one cannot judge a book by its cover.
Whether it was him or others, they had previously viewed Luo Bingyan as an extremely cold woman, seemingly devoid of emotions, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was detached from worldly affairs.
Yet, it was such a woman who made him feel an unprecedented passion. This sensation of going from ice to fire, a dual sensation of ice and fire, still left him with endless aftertaste.
Just then, the long eyelashes of the woman behind him fluttered, and then she slowly opened her beautiful eyes.
At this moment, her aura was many times stronger than before, having steadily reached the Early Stage of Great Luo Immortal.
This was also the power of Ye Bufan's Dual Cultivation technique; her Realm was essentially the same as his current strength.
Although she had just Broken through, there was no instability in her aura like other Cultivators, and she had completely stabilized her footing.
Feeling the power within her, Luo Bingyan looked at the man before her, her expression complex, containing gratitude, shyness, and admiration. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
At the same time, she secretly rejoiced, fortunate that she had acted decisively enough to finally possess such a perfect Dao Companion.
If there had been the slightest hesitation yesterday, perhaps the outcome would have been completely different.
"How do you feel?"
Ye Bufan asked the woman.
"You… why do you ask me such a question?"
Luo Bingyan clearly misunderstood, not only were her cheeks flushed, but her entire body was covered in a blush.
"Uh…"
Ye Bufan was stunned for a moment, then smiled playfully, "I was asking about your Cultivation. Is there a problem with that?"
"You…"
Luo Bingyan became even more uncontrollably shy. She grabbed her clothes and put them back on, but her expression and aura had changed; she was no longer the aloof Fairy she had been before.
"Alright, it's about time. Let's go out."
Ye Bufan led Luo Bingyan, and with a thought, they left the Dragon King Palace and returned to the previous room.
After accepting this woman, he had new plans.
Although the Luo Family was weak now, he wanted to use it as a foothold to develop his own power.
With himself, the Ancient Medical Sect Legacy holder, in charge, it would be difficult for the Luo Family not to become powerful. They would surely gain a firm footing in the Middle Heaven Region, similar to the Liuguang Sword Sect in the Lower Heaven Region.
This would both help Luo Bingyan and establish a foundation for himself.
With his own core group, whether it was searching for the three Spirit Medicine for the Bodhi Rebirth Pill or news of Lu Banxia, everything would be much simpler.
