466 Brother Jiu Takes Action (1)

“You know each other?” The Little Commandery Princess frowned.

Yu Wan looked at Senior Yue and saw him stand up. He walked up to the Great Gu Master of the Queen Manor and said in a daze, “It’s been ten years since we last met. I didn’t expect the two of us to meet like this.”

A complicated look flashed across the Gu Master’s eyes. “Eldest Senior Brother.”

It would be difficult for the Little Commandery Princess to believe if Senior Yue unilaterally recognized Gu Master Meng, but since Gu Master Meng agreed to it, she had no choice but to believe it.

What kind of ill fate was this? The reinforcements the other party brought were actually the senior brother of their Gu Master?

The same doubts flashed across Yu Wan’s mind. She never expected that the Gu Master Helian Beiming casually hired would be involved with the Queen Manor.

Now, she liked to look at Yan Jiuchao when she had nothing to do. Sometimes, she just wanted to look, and sometimes, she would ask him for his opinion. For example, at this moment, her face was filled with a sentence—Who do you think will win?

Yan Jiuchao snorted in disdain.

Yu Wan : “…”

What did this mean…

Senior Yue said politely, “Junior Brother Meng seems to have been doing well these few years.”

Gu Master Meng said with a trace of confidence, “Although you inherited Master’s mantle, I also said that I’ll become a Great Gu Master sooner or later.”

Senior Yue smiled. “It seems that Junior Brother Meng did it. I congratulate you here.”

Compared to his senior brother, Gu Master Meng was a little unsmiling. “I haven’t forgotten your care for me. I once sent someone to write a letter to you, inviting you to follow me into the Queen’s Manor to serve Her Highness. I wonder if you haven’t received my letter.”

Senior Yue smiled and said, “I received the letter. I appreciate your good intentions, but everyone has their own ambitions. I’m used to being carefree and can’t follow the rules of a rich family.”

Gu Master Meng said seriously, “With your potential, you will definitely be able to make a huge breakthrough in Gu techniques with the help of Her Highness.”

The Little Commandery Princess walked over with a rare polite expression. “So you’re Lord Meng’s senior brother. Nice to meet you! I’m…”

Just as she was about to say that she was the commandery princess of the Queen Manor, she suddenly remembered that she was traveling incognito. She quickly changed her words and said, “I’m from the Queen Manor. Are you interested in being an esteemed guest of our Queen Manor? The Queen Manor can provide you with the best herbs, the best conditions, and endless wealth. I understand that you’re a Great Gu Master with a noble status, but in the entire world, other than the palace, there’s no place more esteemed than the Queen Manor.”

Senior Yue had long learned from Helian Beiming that the thorn he had encountered this time was the Little Commandery Princess. He could guess who this person was. He saw through it but did not expose her. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for your praise, Young Master. I’ll still say the same thing. Everyone has their own ambitions.”

The Little Commandery Princess pursed her lips. She only invited him because of Gu Master Meng, but he actually didn’t appreciate it? The Little Commandery Princess could not persuade Senior Yue and angrily found a seat.

The seat she found happened to be on the other side of Yan Jiuchao. When she turned around, she saw Yan Jiuchao’s impeccable side profile. This was the first time she had seen a man who was better-looking than Brother Sheng. She was immediately stunned.

However, she was interrupted by Dong Xian’er, who was late.

Dong Xian’er was not lying when she said that she was going to touch up her makeup. She had indeed put on clear and energetic makeup. However, she was still wearing a veil, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes. The peach-colored eye shadow at the end of her eyes was just right, neither thick nor light, making her eyes look even more charming.

She was wearing an apricot-pink dress and was so beautiful that she did not look like a prostitute at all. She was like a different person from the enchanting woman who danced barefoot that night. However, the moment she spoke, everyone could tell that it was her.

She said with a smile, “Everyone is here? Sorry to keep you waiting. These are…” Her puzzled gaze swept across the two Great Gu Masters.

“This is the Queen Manor’s Great Gu Master Meng!” The Little Commandery Princess puffed up her chest.

Dong Xian’er bowed slowly. “Great Gu Master Meng, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“This is Great Gu Master Yue,” Yu Wan introduced, not mentioning that he was invited by Helian Beiming.

“Greetings, Great Gu Master Yue.” Dong Xian’er also smiled and bowed to Senior Yue. Then, her gaze passed Yu Wan and landed on Yan Jiuchao’s face. “Yo, what a handsome young master. Are you the one who went to Paramount with Young Master Yan last time? I couldn’t see you clearly from afar, but you’re actually quite a handsome young master.”

Yu Wan had thought of an excuse on the way and immediately said, “He’s my friend. He’s here to watch the fun!”

Yan Jiuchao: “Tsk~”

Yu Wan turned around and gave him a sharp look. You’re not allowed to expose me! Young Master Yan turned his face away. Yu Wan did not know if it was her imagination, but she felt that his gaze just now was a little aggrieved.

Dong Xian’er smiled and asked about the identities of Jiang Hai and the others. Yu Wan only said that they were guards and did not say anything else.

Dong Xian’er said, “Since the two Great Gu Masters are here, why don’t we start? I’ll give the Red Lingzhi to whoever’s Gu technique is better.”

She said give, not sell. In other words, she would not take a single cent.

“Are there any other conditions?” Yu Wan asked.

Dong Xian’er smiled and shook her head. “Young Master Yan, do you think I’m in a hurry to find a Gu Master because I have some shameful motive? Can’t I do it because I admire a Gu Master? Do you know that although the Capital is big and I have money, it’s rare for me to meet the legendary Great Gu Master?”

These words were true. The people of Nanzhao believed in the Gu God, just like how the people of the Central Plains were willing to spend a lot of money to see the top scholar. Dong Xian’er’s request to see the Gu Master in exchange for a lingzhi seemed to make sense in every way.

But was it really that simple?

As if seeing Yu Wan’s suspicion, Dong Xian’er spread her hands. “There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me.”

Whether she believed it or not was another matter. The most important thing now was to obtain the medicinal primer.

“Then let’s start,” Yu Wan said.

In Nanzhao, there would be sparring between Gu techniques. Overall, there were two types. One was the sparring of Gu worms, and the other was the sparring of Gu techniques. The sparring of Gu worms was similar to fighting chickens and beasts. They would put their respective Gu worms into a jar and let them fight each other. It was enough for them to let the Gu worms kill each other. The winner would be the one who survived in the end. If it was a sparring of Gu techniques, the range of it would be wide. It was said that when a person’s Gu technique was cultivated to the extreme, they could control the ten thousand worms of the world for their own use.

Of course, that was a rumor. No one had really seen it. Yu Wan and the others were all laymen. The competition was decided by the two Great Gu Masters. After some discussion, the two of them decided to fight Gu and win two out of three rounds.

Yu Wan did not dare to get too close, afraid that her little Gu would affect the Gu of both sides. This effect was not targeted. They were bound together for good or ill.

Yu Wan gave Qing Yan a look. Qing Yan understood and walked over to help Senior Yue and asked, “Senior Yue, what’s your chances of winning?”

Senior Yue thought for a while. “Although he’s my junior brother, Master once praised him as a rare genius when he was alive. If it weren’t for his impetuous personality and the need to train, he would have inherited the mantle, not me.”

Qing Yan hurriedly said, “Senior Yue, there’s no need to be so humble.”

Senior Yue shook his head. “It’s not that I’m too humble. Back then, we were both in the same sect, so his Gu technique is not inferior to mine. All these years, he has entered the Queen Manor. The conditions that the Queen Manor can create for him are much better than the sect, so I think his Gu technique must have improved greatly again.”

“Senior Yue, you mean… you’ll lose?” They couldn’t lose. If they lost, the medicinal primer would be gone!

Senior Yue smiled. “Don’t worry. Although I’m not talented, I took care of him many years ago. Today, he’ll return this favor to me.”

Great Gu Master Meng did not fit in since he was young, but he had outstanding talent. Those people both hated and envied him, and secretly made things difficult for him. As the eldest senior brother, Senior Yue had helped Great Gu Master Meng out of trouble more than once. Great Gu Master Meng’s family was poor, and when his mother was seriously ill, it was also Senior Yue who paid for him to buy medicine. This was also why Great Gu Master Meng wrote to his eldest senior brother after he made a name for himself and invited him to the Capital to enjoy life.

Although Qing Yan did not know what kind of personality Great Gu Master Meng had, looking at his arrogant appearance, he was probably not a good person. To be able to make him invite him to enjoy life, it could only be said that he owed Senior Yue a lot.

In that case, Qing Yan was relieved. Qing Yan gestured to Yu Wan that victory was in their hands. Yu Wan nodded to herself and patiently watched the competition.

As expected, Senior Yue won the first round.

The Little Commandery Princess stood up and said in disbelief, “How did this happen? Aren’t you very powerful? Why can’t you even compare to a commoner?”

Great Gu Master Meng said perfunctorily, “He’s my senior brother. If his Gu technique is worse than mine, he won’t inherit my master’s mantle.”

“I don’t care! In short, you have to win for me! If you dare to lose, I’ll…” The Little Commandery Princess was halfway through threatening him when she glanced at the gazes around her and snorted coldly. “In short, you have to win!”

They could not throw a game too obviously. So in the second round, Great Gu Master Meng regained the upper hand.

The Little Commandery Princess raised her eyebrows and smiled smugly at Yu Wan. “I told you, the lingzhi is mine!”

Yu Wan smiled faintly and said, “There’s still one more round. Don’t speak too early.”

Yan Jiuchao did not like to look at insects and strolled around the manor. As he strolled, he bumped into someone.

An acquaintance.
