She had a vague feeling that if this Old Madam decided to lay hands on her, she wouldn’t have any chance to resist!
She might not even be able to escape!
This was an aura, no words were needed!
Great!
Getting the brunt of her anger!
And from such a formidable figure, no less!
After quickly analyzing the pros and cons, Gu Changsheng thought she’d better play it safe. At the very least, this Old Madam Zuoqiu was obviously a big boss not to be trifled with, and she couldn’t afford to be foolish!
"Haha, Elder Sister Zuoqiu, Wu Xi the old chap has a keen eye, this Immortal Lady really is a talent among talents, not unworthy of your beloved granddaughter!"
On the side of the viewing terrace, as Old Madam Zuoqiu’s unfriendly gaze made the atmosphere awkward, Zhuge Qian, with a smile on his old face, broke the ice.
Granddaughter!
ntioning the granddaughter again!
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng instantly puffed up with anger!
She couldn’t help but ntally lay into this old man from the Zhuge Family!
Old Grand Master!
Why would you bring that up!
Earlier, when Dugu Jieao ntioned her granddaughter in front of Old Madam Zuoqiu, she blew up right there, in front of all the Hidden World Clan Elders, without any concern for the occasion! It was so fierce that even Gu Changsheng took a hard look!
And now of all tis?
Clearly, this Old Madam Zuoqiu did not fancy her, though she didn’t know why. Already feeling the brunt of her anger, Gu Changsheng truly didn’t want to beco cannon fodder!
Smile!
Gu Changsheng forced an awkward smile on her half-masked face.
She couldn’t help but pray in her heart, please, old lady, don’t lose it! And if you have to, fine! Just take it out on that old man Zhuge across from you!
He’s the one who said it; from start to finish, Gu Changsheng hadn’t said a single extra word besides greetings!
Don’t take it out on , don’t make collateral damage!
"Hmph!" Just as Gu Changsheng was silently praying, Old Madam Zuoqiu at the head gave a cold snort, her shrewd old eyes fixed on Gu Changsheng, and said in a deep voice, "Since Wu Xi the old chap sent you, why doesn’t he dare co out himself? Where is he hiding?"
"Uh..." Gu Changsheng felt a chill down her spine being addressed as ’that old chap,’ the dical Immortal Old Man, with his white hair and beard. Despite being called an old chap, he was pretending youthful vigor, definitely earning a ten out of ten!
But this also indirectly proved that the Old Madam Zuoqiu before her was definitely a Master of the Transformative Realm, and had found a host to reincarnate!
Otherwise, looking about the sa age as the dical Immortal Old Man, how could she openly consider herself his elder?
"Well... I don’t know!" Gu Changsheng still had to answer Old Madam Zuoqiu’s question.
"Don’t know? Is it because he knows I’d be here, so he’s hiding? That brat! I want to see how long he can hide!" She gave her dragon-head cane a tap, visibly showing her hatred.
Gu Changsheng’s heart jumped at the sight, turning her head and casting a bitter glance at her own son.
Damn, that dical Immortal Old Man really is an unbeatable troublemaker!
Just what did he do to offend the old lady? Did he steal her man or snatch her lover? Just look at how deep her hatred runs!
"A perfectly good person, not sothing to hide from, why act so mysteriously? Take the mask off your face, it’s an eyesore to my old lady!" However, Old Madam Zuoqiu quickly turned her words, snorting coldly again.
Below, Gu Changsheng heard this, her eyes twitched with bitter amusent, lifting her head with drooping corners of her mouth, she timidly asked, "Can I not take it off?"
She couldn’t take it off; taking it off would risk exposing her identity!
She didn’t want the whole world to know that she, an illustrious Southern Emperor, had infiltrated a Hidden World Clan for so fun!
How embarrassing would that be!
"You want a beating?" Old Madam Zuoqiu retorted with a stern voice.
Gu Changsheng heard this and sweated nervously!
Old lady, could you not be so intense?
If you’re that intense, does my father know?
anwhile, Elders next door were hesitating about whether to set aside their pride to uncover the curtain above them. Hearing Old Madam Zuoqiu’s shout made them ecstatically pleased!
Old Madam Zuoqiu’s wrath was well-deserved!
She should indeed properly deal with this arrogant Immortal Lady!
Let’s see if she dares to defy the dignity of the Hidden World Clan again!
"Calm down! Calm down! Granny, calm down! Can we talk this over without resorting to threats?" Gu Changsheng stretched out both hands, gesturing for peace, speaking in a sulking tone.
What did she ever do to deserve this?
If she had known there was such a difficult Buddha among the Elders of the Hidden World Clan, Gu Changsheng swore, she wouldn’t dare co here to participate in any ridiculous early elimination round, even at the risk of her life!
Now look what happened!
She hadn’t even dealt with the weak yet, but she was being treated as one!
Her pride was oh-so-trampled now!
"Elder Sister Zuoqiu, don’t be angry, don’t be angry, let’s talk it over nicely!" Zhuge Qian saw this and had to step in to diate. He knew that any matter involving dicine King Valley would set Old Madam Zuoqiu off, and here they were!
Luckily, he had followed along!
In this world, besides Zhuge Qian, the in-law of the Zuoqiu family, there’s really no one else daring enough to bring up those old stories in front of Old Lady Zuoqiu, the firecracker!
"Hmph!" Old Lady Zuoqiu snorted at this, giving Zhuge Qian so face, her anger subsiding slightly, but still relentless as she looked at Gu Changsheng and said, "Take off the mask, let this old lady see what you really look like!"
"Old Lady, I can’t... I’m really ugly..." Gu Changsheng lowered her head.
Damn it, this really can’t be taken off!
"Are you going to take it off or not?" Old Lady Zuoqiu gave her a sidelong glance.
"I really can’t take it off, it’ll scare people..." Gu Changsheng was sweating inside; damn, she was telling the truth!
She really, really didn’t want to scare anyone!
After leaving the Heavenly Palace, she had fled her marriage all the way to Linyuan City, it made no sense to reveal her true self in broad daylight like this!
What would everyone in the world think of her?
How awkward would that be!
"Take it off! If you really look that frightening, don’t even think about entering dicine King Valley! I, this old lady, am the first to disagree!" Old Lady Zuoqiu spoke with a determined face.
"Why?" Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, imdiately widened her eyes.
Why?
Why can’t soone who looks scary enter dicine King Valley, the garden and dical yard she’s been dreaming about for so long?
"I’m afraid you’ll scare people!"
Old Lady Zuoqiu’s answer nearly made Gu Changsheng spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Damn it!
Where on earth did this Old Lady Zuoqiu co from, this Buddha?
Here just to ruin things?
"Old Lady, elder, can we not be so serious?" Gu Changsheng was truly defeated by this old lady, drooping her face, defending the mask on her face with a sowhat resolute stance!
Dear heavens, it can’t be taken off!
At the very least, it can’t be taken off under such humiliating circumstances!
Won’t soone help her?
"Youngster! Why are you so dilatory in your actions? I, this old lady, only asked you to take off your mask, not your life. Why are you hesitating so much?" The fierce Old Lady Zuoqiu, seemingly not in a good mood, tapped her Dragon Head Cane, urging again.
Why?
Why?
You don’t have to bully like this!
Why are you so fixated on my mask, doing this when you’re bored?! My mask is innocent!
Gu Changsheng was sweating profusely inside!
She’d never t such a difficult old lady before, leaving her utterly helpless!
Sneakily turning her head, glancing outside the platform, Gu Changsheng pursed her lips; on this wide stage, given the distance, Gu Changsheng was sure that if she dared to run, the old lady would definitely use her cane to drag her back!
This is the intuition of a master!
And Gu Changsheng trusted her instincts!
So, running away wasn’t an option, but with so many eyes watching, asking her to take off her mask was genuinely difficult...
What to do?
It had been a while since Gu Changsheng encountered such a helpless situation, she really thought the heavens wouldn’t answer her plea!
The heavens won’t answer?
Thinking of this, a light flashed in Gu Changsheng’s eyes!
She slapped her forehead, a look of sudden realization on her face, and with a fawning smile, she said to Old Lady Zuoqiu, "How about, Old Lady, I summon the dical Immortal Old Man for you? You two can talk face to face?"
Just stop giving a hard ti!
I’m innocent!
Damn it, she called out to the heavens in vain, but she could call the dical Immortal Old Man!
Clearly, Old Lady Zuoqiu was venting her anger at her because of that unkind old dical Immortal; in this situation, selling out a teammate was a must! And with no hesitation!
Upon hearing Gu Changsheng ntion Wu Xi, Old Lady Zuoqiu’s old eyes indeed lit up, her face almost twisted with hatred, promptly tapping her Dragon Head Cane, "Good! You call that old rascal here, I, this old lady, will stop giving you a hard ti!"
What a tone of bestowing a favor, should I feel grateful?
Gu Changsheng pouted, "Alright, alright, I’ll call him! Wait here!"
Isn’t it just the Spirit Attracting Technique?
You get better with practice, the third and fourth ti it becos second nature, this being only her second ti using it, it’s at least easier than the first!
After biting her fingertip, with Old Lady Zuoqiu’s consent, Gu Changsheng used the Spirit Attracting Technique without the slightest hesitation!
dical Immortal Old Man, sorry, but there’s an enemy of yours waiting for you here!
Please co!
Gu Changsheng silently prayed for the dical Immortal Old Man in her heart, this wasn’t her fault, who knew Old Lady Zuoqiu would be so difficult? In such cases, it’s better for a teammate to fall than her!
