Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The disgraceful matters of the Gu family were exposed in front of so many people, and Gu Hongkang’s face didn’t look too good. He glared at his son and Wang Shi with irritation.
Then, he tried to reason with Gu Qingluan, “In the past, the Gu family owed you, although it’s a bit late to say this, but I still want to apologize to you, Qingluan. We can’t change the past, but we should focus on the present and the future. Your father has made mistakes, and we can make him change. Carrying the label of patricide wouldn’t be in your best interest, nor would it benefit your son, would it?”
Gu Zhicheng furrowed his brow and suppressed the urge to argue.
His survival depended on his father, and if he ruined his father’s plans, he would be the one in trouble.
Gu Qingluan looked coldly at them and replied, “We can discuss other matters, but there’s no room for negotiation on this issue.”
“You…” Gu Hongkang didn’t expect that he had calmly tried to persuade her, and she didn’t show him any respect. He almost lost his temper.
Gu Zhicheng couldn’t help but speak up, “Do you really want my life? Don’t be too arrogant! Do you think nobody can control you?”
Gu Qingluan disdainfully glanced at him and then turned to Gu Hongkang, “Old Master, even if the Gu family were to lose its current Patriarch, the position is easily replaceable. Are you sure you want to put the Gu family in jeopardy for him?”
Gu Zhicheng was infuriated by her gaze. “Don’t think you can threaten my father! The Gu family has centuries of heritage. Do you really believe you can disrupt it? Father, she’s so stubborn. Why waste words on her? Give her a lesson, and let’s see if she dares to be arrogant again!”
Gu Hongkang was on the verge of tears because of his son’s stupidity.
This fool, if the Gu family could handle Gu Qingluan, why should he waste so many words on her?
Couldn’t he understand this by now?
At this point, Gu Hongkang stood still and remained silent with a deep, contemplative look.
Suddenly, Gu Zhicheng had a foreboding feeling.
Could it be that his father was considering Gu Qingluan’s proposal?
He hurriedly said, “Father, I am a Saint, the head of the Gu family! How many people in the world can become Saints? I am in the prime of my life, and my future achievements are limitless. I will lead the Gu family to unprecedented glory!”
Indeed, his son becoming a Saint before him was a cause for celebration.
If it weren’t for Gu Qingluan’s interference, Gu Hongkang would have been overjoyed upon his return.
However, Gu Qingluan…
A complex, inscrutable light flickered in Gu Hongkang’s eyes.
Ignoring Gu Qingluan’s personal strength, just considering the backing behind her, the Gu family couldn’t compare.
After a long while, Gu Hongkang spoke, “Killing him doesn’t solve much. It’s better to let him live and atone for his actions. You won’t have to carry the label of patricide, and you’ll avoid unnecessary trouble.”
Gu Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief. After all, his father wouldn’t harm him.
Gu Qingluan’s eyes flickered, and she asked slowly, “Atonement? How will he atone?”
“I will strip him of his cultivation, and he’ll spend every day in the ancestral hall, burning incense and kneeling, confessing his sins to your mother. What do you think about that?”
“Dad?” Gu Zhicheng, who had just lowered his guard, immediately tensed up, staring at his father in disbelief.
Strip his cultivation?
Had his father gone mad?
He was a Saint!
One of the top figures in Cloud Plains Continent.
Gu Qingluan glanced at Gu Zhicheng, who looked as if he had swallowed a fly, and chuckled lightly, “Well, that’s one way to do it. I can agree with that. Please, Old Master, go ahead.”
A Saint’s lifespan was several times longer than that of an ordinary person.
Making him fall from the heights of the cultivation world to the lowest point would indeed be more painful than death.
Without his cultivation, Gu Zhicheng wouldn’t be able to make waves.
With his father closely watching, even if he had the Gu family as a backing, he wouldn’t be able to make any underhanded moves anymore.
Then, he would have to repent daily in the ancestral hall.
If her mother learned about this from the afterlife, she should find solace in this.
Gu Zhicheng couldn’t contain his anger any longer and shouted, “Gu Qingluan, shut up!”
“Quiet! Zhicheng, you’ve created your own troubles; you must bear the consequences. Don’t remain stubborn!” Gu Hongkang sternly remarked and then walked away with a solemn expression..
