Auntie … Aunt?
Ye Zichen couldn't help but frown as he looked at the girl, who had raised her chin and placed her hands on her hips as if she wanted to call Ye Zichen "Auntie".
"Miss, this is not the way to take advantage of others."
She looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. In the Upper Three Realms, one's age couldn't be determined just by looking at one's face, but Ye Zichen was certain that she was no older than a hundred.
No matter what, Ye Zichen had lived for more than a hundred years. Wasn't calling this girl aunt a joke?
"Who took advantage of you? I'm your aunt." The young girl stared at him seriously. "Your mother is Ye Rong, right?"
"Indeed!"
"I am the youngest daughter of the Gu family, Gu Luolin. According to your mother's seniority in the Gu family, you should call me aunt. "
The girl pouted, looking very excited.
The Gu family hadn't had any descendants for nearly a hundred years, and she had always been the youngest daughter in the Gu family. Even though Ye Rong had returned to the Gu Clan as the Lord of Seven Stars and was the same generation as her, she still had to call Ye Rong clan sister.
Ever since she was young, her biggest dream had been to become an elder. When she found out that Ye Rong had a son, she was overjoyed. She kept clamoring for Ye Rong to bring him back so that she could take a good look at her eldest nephew. However, Ye Rong never took Ye Zichen back, nor did she use the surname Gu in front of others.
She had never imagined that she would meet her eldest nephew in this mausoleum.
Gu Luolin couldn't stop smiling, while her eyes shone with joy. She sat obediently on the hay, waiting for Ye Zichen to call her aunt …
"You said that you are from the Gu family, and my mother returned to the Gu family?"
"Yeah!"
"I know that my mother is a member of the Gu Family, but that's a lower plane within a lower plane. How can the Gu Family here be the same as the Gu Family over there?"
"I don't know about that. In short, Father said that Sister Ye Rong is a member of the Gu family. She's my elder sister."
From the tone of Gu Luolin's speech, she seemed to be an inexperienced young girl. To say that she had lived for nearly a hundred years was really overestimating her. Perhaps the current state of fifteen or sixteen was her true age.
Ye Zichen tilted his head and looked at Gu Luolin. Ye Zichen understood her thoughts very well.
It was a typical child's desire to become an adult as soon as possible.
When he saw her expectant expression, Ye Zichen couldn't help but sigh.
"Since my mother is your elder sister, then even if I want to call you, shouldn't I call you Aunty? Aunty is a form of address from the father's generation."
"Ah? Really? "
Gu Luolin blinked her eyes innocently, then chuckled.
"Everything's fine now. Hurry up and call me Aunty. Hurry up …"
Gu Luolin kept urging him. She sat upright on the hay and occasionally made a few gestures, as if she was recalling the way the elders of the clan sat when they first met her.
Ye Zichen glanced at her, then ignored her.
Calling her Aunt Xuan Ji was a matter of course. She was Ye Rong's close friend, and regardless of age or cultivation, she was worthy of being called Aunt.
Gu Luolin...
She looked like a little girl. Besides, if Ye Zichen called her Aunt, wouldn't that be admitting he was a member of the Gu Family?
He hadn't forgotten the white-robed Gu Zichen's predicament. Ye Zichen had sworn that no matter what, he wouldn't enter the Gu Family. If he did, everything would repeat itself, so he wanted to change history. The Gu Family …. No matter what, he wouldn't enter.
He wouldn't use the surname 'Gu'.
"Hey, what are you doing? Hurry up and call me Aunty. Hurry up!" shouted Gu Luolin.
Ye Zichen raised his hand and rapped Gu Luolin on the head. Gu Luolin couldn't help but recall how her clansmen had always treated her like this back in the clan.
"No rapping on the head. You'll make me stupid."
Gu Luolin subconsciously blurted out these words. As soon as she finished speaking, she covered her small mouth with her hand and immediately put on an angry expression like that of an elder.
"Impudent!"
"Seriously, little girl. It's so much better to be a junior, yet you insist on being an elder. Don't even think about calling me Aunty. There are so many members of the Gu Family. My mother might have recognized the wrong family. Or maybe your family saw that my mother was the Lord of Seven Stars and wanted to get close to her, "said Ye Zichen.
"Bullshit!"
Gu Luolin shouted in her lolita voice. It was clear that she was furious.
"We're the only Gu Family in the entire God, Yao, and Demon Realm. Everyone knows our status. Lord of Seven Stars …. Even the Emperor Star would find it difficult to gain our approval. We know how to get close to you. Hurry up and apologize!"
A lolita was a lolita. Even when she was angry, there was a hint of cuteness in her tone.
Ye Zichen grinned at the furious Gu Luolin. Just as he was about to say something, an image suddenly flashed through his mind. He looked solemnly at Gu Luolin.
"You said the Gu Family is the only one?"
Gu Luolin sensed Ye Zichen's solemn expression. Even the inexperienced Gu Luolin's heart trembled.
"That's right. What about it?"
"Is the Gu Family famous among the Gods, Yao, and Demons?" asked Ye Zichen. "Of course. Although our Gu Family doesn't occupy a Divine Mountain as our foundation, our reputation is far greater than that of the other Sacred Clans. I wouldn't dare say I know all of them. Those supremes and diviners are too weak to know about us, but I dare say they know all of the rulers and above!
Gu Luolin lifted her chin and snorted proudly.
All rulers and above knew about us!
Ye Zichen's brows sank. He rested his chin on his right hand, and his eyes flashed with thought.
When Gu Luolin saw his solemn expression, she tilted her head to the side.
"What is it?"
"Are you sure you know everything?"
"Why wouldn't I be sure? All rulers and above know about our Gu Family. There are quite a few Hegemons who, after becoming a Hegemon, would go to the Gu Clan to let us know that they have become a Hegemon. "
Ye Zichen's expression grew increasingly solemn. At the same time, he took out a cigarette and lit it.
Those familiar with Ye Zichen all knew that whenever he lit a cigarette, it meant that something extremely grave was weighing on his mind.
"Ahem …. What's that …."
"Shush," Ye Zichen squinted his eyes. Ye Zichen squinted his eyes, then took out a few lollipops and chucked them to Gu Luolin's side. "Go play on the side."
Gu Luolin had definitely never seen a lollipop before. She was infuriated when a junior scolded her like that!
She glared at Ye Zichen and wanted to scold him, but when she saw his solemn expression, she didn't want to disturb him and get scolded. In the end, she could only purse her lips and pick up the lollipop on the ground.
Gu Luolin's nose twitched. Just the smell alone was enough to make her gulp.
She tore open the packaging and put it in her mouth ….
"So sweet!"
Gu Luolin, who was slightly angry earlier, immediately revealed a happy smile. Then, she stopped bothering Ye Zichen, and obediently ran to the dry grass in the cave to lick her lollipop. She even carefully put away the other lollipops so that she could eat them slowly in the future.
…
"Could it be him?"
Ye Zichen's eyes flashed with sharpness as he sat at the entrance of the cave and chucked cigarette after cigarette.
Gu Luolin's words truly caused him to think of some very serious questions. He had felt that these questions were very strange before, but after Gu Luolin said them, he felt that it was even more strange.
"But he didn't go up the mountain. What is his purpose in doing this?"
Only Ye Zichen himself knew who the "he" Ye Zichen mentioned was.
Gu Luolin, who licked the lollipop, only knew that she could hear Ye Zichen muttering something that she didn't understand as she sat on the grass.
It was just like how the seniors in the clan would always say things that she didn't understand. "You're clearly my nephew, but you don't call me little aunty. So rude," Gu Luolin pouted and muttered. Gu Luolin pouted and muttered. However, her little mouth was sparkling and translucent from the lollipop. Licking the lollipop, Gu Luolin's mood became much better. She snorted and said, "For its sake, I won't blame you for being ignorant.
Polite junior! "
"Who exactly is he!?"
Ye Zichen was still immersed in his own thoughts. That person's actions continuously flashed through his mind like a movie.
The more he thought about it, the more obvious that person's strangeness was, and the more he couldn't find a reasonable explanation.
"Could it be that he did it on purpose? Or does he really not know? If it really is him, then it would be very hard for him to do it in secret, right? "
Ye Zichen frowned deeply, while he only smoked a few cigarettes from the entire pack.
"Screech!"
All of a sudden, a sharp, yet slightly sorrowful cry sounded out from afar. The cry was very familiar, it was like the cry of the eagle from before.
"Da Bai!"
Gu Luolin's reaction was much more determined than Ye Zichen's. She had stayed with the eagle for a long time, so she knew very well whether the cry belonged to the eagle or not.
She instantly stood up from the grass. At the same time, Ye Zichen also suppressed his previous thoughts.
Ye Zichen asked when he saw Gu Luolin's anxious expression.
"What happened?"
"Da Bai is in danger," Gu Luolin's face was filled with anxiety. Gu Luolin's little face was filled with anxiety. Then, she ran towards the entrance of the cave. "I have to hurry over and help it."
"…"
Hearing that, Ye Zichen's heart tensed up, and he grabbed her arm.
"My dear lady, stop messing around. Do you think we're on dry land? This is a cliff, and below us is a ten thousand feet cliff! If we fall down from here, forget about meat pancakes, we won't even have any meat left! "
"Dear lady?" Gu Luolin blinked. "Haha, you admit that I'm your senior, right?"
“？？？”
Ye Zichen was completely confused.
Since when did words like 'dear lady' and 'little ancestor' become used to address someone's senior?
Why didn't Ye Zichen know that?
It was clearly similar to tone particles. People often used it in the Modern Realm, and Ye Zichen had encountered quite a few Gods, Yao, and Demons.
But when it came to Gu Luolin …
She's truly inexperienced!
That was the only way Ye Zichen could understand it!
