Chapter 44 Attending the Banquet Alone
Chapter 44 Attending the Banquet Alone
Li Gui's frail body flipped three and a half times in the air before falling to the ground, questioning his existence.
"You...you actually dared to hit me?"
"You bastard, I'll fight you to the death!"
"Heavenly Gang Boy Skill"
"Boom!"
Li Gui unleashed a domineering force that swept through the entire sales hall, and Huang Changhe and the others were all forced back by this force.
"Mr. Gu, be careful. Li Gui practices the Heavenly Gang Boy Skill passed down by Eunuch Cao in ancient times. His strength is extremely terrifying."
"He is Li Wenlong's capable subordinate."
"Hmph, Huang Changhe, you talk too much."
"Kid, you're scared now, aren't you?"
"I, Li Guijie, have been practicing the Heavenly Gang Boy Skill for eighty years, and my strength has long surpassed that of Eunuch Cao."
"I won't be satisfied until I break your legs today."
"Heh, then you give it a try."
"court death."
The next second, Li Gui leaped into the air, his true energy covering his entire body, and then struck Gu Lingchen's chest with a palm.
Facing Li Gui's attack, Gu Lingchen's lips curled up slightly. Any one of the ten Celestial Masters of Longhu Mountain could easily defeat Li Gui.
Gu Lingchen didn't take him seriously at all.
He slightly raised his hand and swung it horizontally.
"Boom!"
An invisible force sent Li Gui flying, spitting out blood and questioning his existence.
"Impossible, impossible."
"My Heavenly Gang Child Skill is invincible."
"You actually..."
"Pfft~"
"Alright, go back and tell that guy surnamed Li that if he wants to die, I'll grant his wish."
"Good, good, kid, you've got guts."
"We'll be waiting for you at the Longquan Hotel tonight."
Clutching his chest, Li Gui fled in panic...
Gurgle.
Huang Changhe's throat bobbed; Li Gui's strength was almost the same as his.
They were like ants in front of Gu Lingchen.
He was even more grateful that he hadn't been blinded by hatred that day.
"Mr. Gu, are you going to the Longquan Hotel tonight?"
"Longquan Hotel is owned by the Li family; this is probably a trap."
"It is said that the Li family is now very close to the Situ family in Yanjing. I do not recommend that you attend the banquet, Mr. Gu."
"It's alright, Patriarch Huang, you don't need to worry about me."
"A bunch of clowns."
"If they don't know what's good for them, I don't mind making the Li family disappear from the world completely."
A chill ran from my toes to the top of my head.
Huang Changhe felt he had seen an opportunity.
An opportunity to absorb the Li family.
"Master Huang, thank you for today."
"Qianxue, Xiaoxiao, let's go back."
That evening, Su Qianxue and Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to start packing their luggage, filled with anticipation at the thought of moving into the big villa soon.
Inside Su Qianxue's room, the two lay on the bed, filled with anticipation for the future.
"Xiaoxiao, do you think Gu Lingchen was really my lover from a past life?"
"Then I must have been a really good person in my past life to have met someone as good as him."
"Oh my, Qianxue, you were just worried about Gu Lingchen, and now you're all swooning over him?"
"Actually, I think that regardless of whether it is true or not, I have seen how good Gu Lingchen is to you."
"Qianxue, tell me the truth, have you already fallen for him?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qianxue blushed and her heart began to race.
"I…."
"I have no idea."
"Xiaoxiao, but I'm happy whenever I see him. I feel a sense of security that I've never felt before when I'm with him."
I really want to see him, and I really want to be with him.
"I want to know everything about him."
"Do you think this means you've fallen for him?"
"Well, Qianxue, are you really that clueless, or are you just pretending?"
"Isn't that obvious enough?"
"You've fallen hopelessly in love with her."
"Oh? Really?"
Su Qianxue, wearing a white nightgown, buried her head in the blanket and remained silent for a moment before mustering her courage to say, "That's right, I also feel like I've fallen for him."
"Oh no... what should we do, Xiaoxiao?"
"But we've only known each other for a few days."
"How could I be so easily captivated by him? Wouldn't that make me seem unreserved?"
Holding a piglet, Su Qianxue rolled around on her pink sheets, trying to hide her nervousness.
"But Xiaoxiao, Gu Lingchen said he would find a way to help me remember all my memories from my past life."
"I'm really looking forward to that day."
"How did we meet in our past life?"
What else have we been through together?
"Hmm..." Tang Xiaoxiao replied, "In the past, I would never have believed in the existence of past lives or reincarnations."
"But with Gu Lingchen's appearance, everything seems possible."
"Qianxue, no matter what, even if you can't remember your past life in the future."
"I also hope that you won't let Gu Lingchen down."
"Even though we've only known each other for a short time, I feel that he's truly giving his all to protect and love you."
At this point, both Su Qianxue and Tang Xiaoxiao's eyes reddened.
So much has happened these past few days that neither of them can believe what would have happened to them if it weren't for Gu Lingchen.
"Okay, Xiaoxiao, I understand."
"After we move to the villa, I'm going to cook him delicious food every day after school..."
.......
Longquan Hotel is located in Longquan Mountain Villa in the southwest area of Jiangzhou City.
This is the most successful investment project of the Li family in Jiangzhou.
Longquan Mountain Villa is a comprehensive commercial center integrating tourism, vacation, leisure and entertainment, hotel accommodation, and high-end residential buildings.
It is the place where Jiangzhou's top officials like to gather the most.
If you don't make a reservation three days in advance, there are no seats available at Longquan Hotel.
The prices inside are certainly not low.
The Longquan Hotel was never established to serve ordinary people.
In a private room on the third floor, Li Wenlong, Li Jie, Li Jie's mother Tang Hui, Li Jie's sister and brother-in-law, and others were all present.
Near the private room, dozens of bodyguards from the Li family, as well as powerful members of the Li family, were hidden.
In the next private room, an elderly man dressed in a reddish-brown Tang suit sat cross-legged with a guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument) in front of him.
He was the only person in the private room, making it exceptionally quiet.
Standing at the door of the private room, Li Gui recounted his encounter with Gu Lingchen that afternoon in detail.
"Oh."
"Li Gui, you are a face of my Li family."
"Looks like this kid isn't giving me any face at all."
"This is a healing pill called the Rejuvenation Pill, sent by the Situ family. Take it and go heal your injuries."
"A Rejuvenation Pill?"
"Yes, yes, patriarch."
"Thank you, Master."
Holding a yellowish-brown pill in his hand, Li Gui was extremely excited.
He certainly knew about the Situ family's Rejuvenation Pill, which was made from many kinds of precious medicinal herbs and natural resources.
Not only does it have excellent healing effects, it also helps martial arts practitioners cultivate their skills.
There are no more than five people in the entire Huaxia region who practice alchemy.
The Situ family has two such members.
Those who master alchemy are sought after by every martial arts family.
"Master, they've arrived."
"He was all alone."
A bodyguard entered the private room and told Li Wenlong that Gu Lingchen had arrived near Longquan Manor.
"Dad, I didn't expect him to actually dare to come alone. Let me go and give this kid a hard time first."
"I want to see just how capable this Gu Lingchen really is."
"They even dare to bully my brother-in-law, the Mad Dragon..."
