Gu Luolin's arrogance was a stark contrast to the Demon Emperor and co.'s silence.
Ye Zichen couldn't tell what the Demon Emperor was thinking, but Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang could tell from their words that their fear was ingrained into their bones.
The young lady of the Gu family's main line of descent, the beloved daughter of two half-step transcendents.
Even if they ate a bear's heart or a leopard's gall, they really wouldn't dare to touch a single hair of hers.
What they got in return was not peace, but Gu Luolin's relentless pressure. Her words of kneeling and apologizing caused the Demon Emperor and co.'s faces to turn green.
The Demon Emperor, Jiao Hai, and Qiu Guang were all respected figures in the God, Yao, and Demon Races.
Kneeling and apologizing to a ferocious beast was the same as stepping on their heads and trampling on their dignity.
Ye Zichen glanced at Iron Tan, who had a pipe in his mouth. From his expression, he didn't seem to have any intention of fighting.
Thus, Ye Zichen decided to ignore him and looked at Gu Luolin and the Demon Emperor with interest.
Obviously, in terms of fun, their place was more interesting.
The Demon Emperor, Jiao Hai, and Qiu Guang kneeling and apologizing was a rare sight.
"Miss Gu, we have offended you before. This divine artifact armor is ranked in the top hundred of the divine artifact rankings. This string of beads is also a divine artifact in the top hundred of the divine artifact rankings. It has the effect of calming the mind. "
After a long silence, Jiao Hai walked in front of Gu Luolin with the set of armor and beads.
"Take it as Jiao Hai apologizing to you. Please accept it!"
Qiu Guang cursed in his heart. Jiao Hai is so cunning!
Kneeling and apologizing would hurt their dignity. Since they didn't dare to provoke her, the best way to resolve this was naturally to compensate her.
"Miss Gu, this is a set of wings. They are pure white and transparent, perfect for you to wear."
Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang carefully held the treasures in their hands. They were filled with hope that Gu Luolin would accept their gifts.
Gu Luolin also walked over with a smile, while Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang smiled apologetically.
Gu Luolin swung her hand and knocked the treasures in their hands onto the ground. Her young and tender little face was filled with disdain.
"Who do you think I am? You want to use these pieces of trash to settle things? You're thinking too simply. "
All of a sudden, Ye Zichen felt a surge of air in his chest, causing him to cough a few times.
Look at him!
The treasures taken out by Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang were obviously supreme treasures, but they were trash to Gu Luolin.
Poverty truly limited one's imagination. To be honest, if Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang apologized to Ye Zichen with this, he would have accepted the treasures a long time ago.
In any case, he wasn't injured, so getting these treasures for free was actually quite profitable!
Of course, Gu Luolin was merely seeking justice for the Great Condor. Ye Zichen wasn't that close to the Great Condor, so he didn't know what sort of position the Great Condor held in Gu Luolin's heart.
If Yang Jian or the Great Sage were the ones injured, Ye Zichen probably wouldn't have agreed either.
Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang's faces turned ugly when their supreme treasures were knocked out of their hands. The unsightly expressions on their faces were not because of resentment, but because of an even stronger fear that shrouded their hearts.
Would they dare to have a grudge against Miss Gu? "You want to bribe me with a set of lousy armor, a lousy magic bead, and a lousy pair of wings? Please think carefully about who I am! I'll tell you one more time. My name is Gu Luolin, my father is Gu Xuande, and my mother is Qingli! Even if you treat these treasures as treasures as servants of the Gu family, I don't care about them at all.
I don't even care about the maidservants, yet you want to give me this trash? Are you trying to disgust me? Or do you really think that the Gu family is just that, and that you can just give us trash? "
As soon as Gu Luolin finished speaking, Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang knelt onto the ground.
"Miss Gu, we have no intention of looking down on the Gu family. No matter what, the Gu family has always been a transcendent existence. "
They knelt!
In the end, Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang still knelt on the ground. Gu Luolin smirked, then kicked their shoulders a few times.
Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang didn't dare take even half a step back.
"Although both of them gave me trash, at least they had the heart to do so. You …. What do you think you are? You're just standing there like a statue. I told you to kneel. Do you not understand what I'm saying? "
Suddenly, Gu Luolin's gaze landed on Kui Lin.
As far as Ye Zichen could remember, Gu Luolin was the first person to dare speak to Kui Lin like this.
When Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang heard such aggressive and provocative words, they could only silently mourn for Kui Lin. However, they didn't even dare look him in the eye.
Kneeling and begging for mercy had already caused them to lose all face. If they met Kui Lin's gaze ….
They might as well find a rock and smash their heads against it!
Kui Lin clenched his fists tightly within his sleeves.
He really had the urge to strangle this little girl who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and was only relying on her family background to vent the hatred in his heart.
However, he didn't dare take the risk!
Half-step transcendence, even if it was only half a step, was still a height he couldn't hope to reach.
If Gu Luolin crushed the jade slip his father had left him the moment he attacked, then he'd be nothing more than a chicken or a stray dog. He wouldn't even have a chance to resist before he was obliterated.
Ten thousand years of cultivation would be destroyed in a single day!
Kneel!
It was also impossible for him to do so!
No matter what, he was the emperor of the demon race. Even if Gu Luolin was a direct descendant of the Gu Family, he had to maintain his dignity.
If he knelt and begged for mercy, that would mean the Gu Family had trampled over the entire demon race. "What are you doing? You're clenching your fists under your sleeves. Do you want to attack me?" Gu Luolin didn't fear Kui Lin's attack at all. She lifted her head and walked right in front of him, her eyelids drooping as she snorted. "If you're angry, don't hold it in. It'll be bad if you get sick from holding it in. If you want to attack me, do it now.
That is, if you're not afraid my father will annihilate your entire family. "
As she spoke, a crystalline jade slip appeared in Gu Luolin's hands. She fiddled with it.
When they saw it, Jiao Hai, Qiu Guang, and the Demon Emperor's pupils constricted.
They hadn't expected Gu Luolin to be serious. She really did have Gu Xuande's jade slip.
"Come on, hit me! Come on, hit me!" Gu Luolin inched closer and closer to Kui Lin, her hands clenching the jade slip. "You'd best kill me now. Of course, even if you do, I'll crush the slip and my father will rush over. What's more, your entire demon race will be buried with him. "
"Miss Gu, you really know how to joke."
"Don't you know full well whether or not I'm telling the truth?"
Gu Luolin jabbed Kui Lin in the chest a few times. Jiao Hai, Qiu Guang, and the others could sense the change in Kui Lin's aura. They were terrified he'd really attack Gu Luolin in a fit of rage and drag them down with him.
"Demon Emperor, that's the young lady of the Gu Family!"
"Demon Emperor, endure it. Don't use violence on her. If you can't handle it, just apologize!"
… …
Several transmissions exploded in the Demon Emperor's sea of consciousness. Gu Luolin's words merely infuriated Kui Lin, but their cowardice infuriated him to the point of trembling.
Kui Lin regretted teaming up with them. He'd thought his allies were all elites with vast resources and connections in the Three Realms.
Given their strength, they wouldn't be much weaker than Ye Zichen's alliance.
And yet, they'd been so frightened by a direct descendant of the Gu Family. Even if the Gu Family was transcendent, with their cowardice, how could they possibly accomplish anything great?
Even if they obtained transcendence's good fortune, if the Gu Family scared them into submission, they'd have no choice but to obediently hand it over!
"Shut up, you bunch of trash!"
Kui Lin cursed, not even using his divine sense to communicate.
Gu Luolin was clearly startled. Her hands trembled, and she pursed her lips as if she were about to cry.
Ye Zichen hurried over and patted her on the shoulder. Kui Lin's expression shifted as he looked at Ye Zichen and Gu Luolin.
"Miss Gu, Star Lord Ye, I, Kui Lin, admit defeat this time. I, Kui Lin, don't want the treasures here anymore! But don't think you've won anything. The mountains never change, and the rivers never stop flowing. We'll meet again! "
Kui Lin cupped his hands in respect, then transformed into a cloud of demonic energy that merged with heaven and earth. As for his subordinates, he'd left them behind.
Jiao Hai, Qiu Guang, and Tie Tan looked at each other in bewilderment. They hadn't expected Kui Lin to be so disloyal. He'd abandoned them just like that.
"Big White, let's go after him!"
"Screech!"
Big Condor wanted to chase after them, but Ye Zichen pulled Gu Luolin back.
"What are you chasing for? Do you know where he went? Just go after him. Besides, he's a Demon Emperor. He needs to save face. "
"He scared me half to death just now. Hmph, let him run. When I get back, I'll tell my parents!" Gu Luolin pouted pitifully.
At the end of the day, Gu Luolin was still a child.
Ye Zichen patted her on the head, then glanced at Tie Tan, who didn't know what to do.
"What are you just standing there for? Get on your knees and apologize to Big Condor! Are you sure you want to run with Kui Lin? "
Tie Tan wanted to run, but when he remembered that Gu Luolin was watching, he didn't dare!
He gnashed his teeth and walked up to Gu Luolin and Ye Zichen. When he saw his comrades kneeling on the ground, he thought about it for a moment and knelt as well.
"Miss Gu, Star Lord Ye, I apologize for my offense!"
"What kind of brains do you have? Didn't Gu Luolin tell you to apologize to Big Condor?" said Ye Zichen speechlessly.
"Who told you to call me by my name? You're my nephew!" shouted Gu Luolin.
"Fine, fine, fine. You're the boss, you're the boss!"
Ye Zichen looked helpless, but the kneeling subordinates' hearts were in turmoil.
Ye Zichen's identity as the Star Lord alone was already difficult enough to deal with. From what Gu Luolin said, he was also a member of the Gu Family?
Then they recalled Ye Zichen's surname!
If they looked at Ye the other way around, wouldn't that make him Gu?
Jiao Hai and the others couldn't help but gulp. They really hoped that their worries were unnecessary. Ye Zichen's surname was Ye, and he had nothing to do with the Gu Family.
