As a matter of fact, Zhou Fan didn't harbor any hostility toward the Gu Family. In fact, he even had a little friendship with the Gu Family's patriarch, Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan said helplessly to the Gu Family's patriarch. Speaking of which, he gazed at the stunned Gu Family's patriarch and let out a sigh.
"You have to know that lust is a knife above the character. Your Gu Family should have been able to achieve meteoric success by saving the woman in the portrait. But it's a pity that because of Gu Le's lust, this great opportunity turned into a disaster. Sigh …"
Zhou Fan was a very upright person. Although he yearned for a higher status and had a strong yearning for power, Zhou Fan would never use such despicable means to achieve his goals. Therefore, Zhou Fan lamented about the Gu Family's misfortune.
If the woman hidden in the Zhou Family was really Qin Shuirou, then the Gu Family's actions could be said to be shooting themselves in the foot.
If the Gu Family only saved Qin Shuirou's life and didn't give Qin Shuirou's beauty, then this matter alone would be enough to make the Gu Family achieve meteoric success. One must know that this kindness meant a lot to Xiao Chen.
On the other hand, to the Gu Family, a casual reward from Xiao Chen or a word from Xiao Chen would be enough to make the Gu Family the most powerful family in the entire Bai Mo Continent. Even Baimo Shengzong would have to be courteous to the Gu Family.
However, it was a pity that such a great opportunity was completely ruined because of the word 'beauty'.
Putting aside whether or not the Gu Family could receive Xiao Chen's gratitude, this matter of snatching away the Gu Family's love might cause the entire Gu Family to fall into hell instantly.
Upon hearing Zhou Fan's words, the Gu Family's patriarch fell into silence. At the same time, a white-haired old man entered the main hall.
This old man was the ancestor of the Gu Clan. With the appearance of the ancestor of the Gu Clan, the atmosphere became a little strange.
After greeting Zhou Fan, the Gu family ancestor did not say much. The three of them waited in the front hall for a moment. Very quickly, a Baimo Shengzong disciple, who had left earlier, hurriedly returned. Upon seeing this, Zhou Fan asked in a deep voice.
"How is it?"
"It has been confirmed." Hearing this, the disciple seriously nodded his head and replied.
After confirming Qin Shuirou's identity, Zhou Fan gazed at the Gu Family Patriarch with a complicated expression. At the same time, the disciple hesitated for a few moments and continued. "But …"
"But what?" Zhou Fan asked.
Hearing this disciple's words, it seemed that there were still some secrets to this matter. In this regard, Zhou Fan did not waste any more time with the Gu family's ancestor and directly followed the disciple to the backyard.
Now that Qin Shuirou's identity had been confirmed, it was naturally the most important thing. As for the Gu Family, when the time came, he would report the truth to the Sacred Palace and let Holy Son Xiao Chen make the decision himself.
Along the way out of the front hall and on the way to the backyard, Zhou Fan asked. "What's the matter?"
"Elder, that … that woman won't go with us and won't let us hurt Gu Le. She has already injured several of our disciples." Hearing this, the disciple truthfully replied.
It turned out that when these disciples found Qin Shuirou, she and Gu Le were hiding in the backyard of the Gu Family's mansion. When the disciples rushed into the courtyard, Gu Le's expression changed drastically. However, just as they confirmed Qin Shuirou's identity, Qin Shuirou attacked and injured several of them.
Otherwise, they would hurt Gu Le and she would not leave with them. In addition to Qin Shuirou's strength and identity, Baimo Shengzong's disciples were somewhat helpless. They could not defeat him, but they did not dare to hurt him. After all, although these disciples did not know Qin Shuirou's specific identity, they knew that this was a person that Baimo Shengzong could not afford to offend.
In the end, it was Qin Shuirou who jumped out to stop them. Hearing this, Zhou Fan frowned slightly and whispered to himself. "Amnesia?"
From the disciple's description, Qin Shuirou did not seem to remember the past at all. It seemed that he was quite protective of Gu Le. Combined with the previous information, Zhou Fan guessed that Qin Shuirou might have amnesia.
This made sense. However, since Qin Shuirou was so protective of Gu Le, then it was very likely that after Qin Shuirou hinted, Gu Le deliberately instilled a lot of false memories in him, including some unmarried wife and so on.
It had to be said that Zhou Fan was indeed a meticulous person. Just based on the information in his hands, he quickly guessed the ins and outs of the matter, and it was not far from the truth.
Thinking of Gu Le's actions, if it was true, then the Gu Family would be in big trouble. Zhou Fan sighed helplessly. He thought that Gu Le was just lustful, but he didn't expect her to be so bold.
Towards Qin Shuirou and Gu Le. Soon, Zhou Fan realized a problem. Since Qin Shuirou was so protective of Gu Le, did something happen between the two of them? If something had happened between Gu Le and Qin Shuirou, then ….
He didn't dare to imagine. If that was the case, what would the Holy Son Xiao Chen do if he knew about it?
Thinking of this, Zhou Fan couldn't help but quicken his footsteps. A hint of urgency appeared in his eyes. He thought that everything would be over as long as he found Qin Shuirou, but who would have thought that Gu Le would be so bold?
He hurried to the courtyard where Qin Shuirou and Gu Le were. As soon as he entered, Zhou Fan saw several disciples of Baimo Shengzong lying on the ground. Although they weren't dead, they were seriously injured and unconscious.
In the middle of the courtyard stood a young man and a young woman. The young woman was naturally Qin ShuiRou. At this moment, Qin ShuiRou stood in front of Gu Le, while Gu Le looked at Zhou Fan, who was walking over in a hurry, with a complicated expression.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Fan sighed helplessly. Qin Shuirou was indeed protecting Gu Le. He didn't know if anything had happened between the two of them.
At the same time, Qin Shuirou saw Zhou Fan coming over and said with a cold expression.
"I don't care who you are. Disappear immediately, or die."
A faint killing intent surged in his heart. At this moment, Qin Shuirou was as cold as usual, as if he was an iceberg.
Hearing Qin Shuirou's words, Zhou Fan bowed and said respectfully.
"I'm Zhou Fan. Greetings, Madam. We're here to look for Madam."
Zhou Fan didn't dare to call Qin Shuirou by his name, so he called him Madam. Hearing this, Qin Shuirou's eyes flashed with a strange light. "Madam? Who are you? Do you know my identity? "
Qin Shuirou had lost his memory, but he wasn't stupid. Zhou Fan's words were obviously telling him that he knew his past and identity, and that he was here to look for him. Therefore, the coldness on Qin Shuirou's face eased a little, and he asked expectantly.
