The carriage appeared much more luxurious than the carriages of ordinary aristocratic families. It was entirely dark green, with a deep green flag inserted on the top of the carriage, embroidered with green bamboo. It represented the Tianji Sect
“Junior Sister is still kind as always. Unfortunately, Su Qian isn’t worthy of Junior Sister’s trust.” The man’s voice resounded through the sky, causing everyone present to look in his direction at the same time. In the end, they saw a handsome Young Master striding down from the carriage.
“Senior Brother Luoyang.” Su Yunxian bowed at Gu Luoyang and said softly and weakly, “Senior Brother, there is still some time before Ancestor’s funeral procession. I believe Seventh Sister will definitely come.”
“My dear Junior Sister, you’re truly too naive.” Gu Luoyang walked in front of Su Yunxian and tried to persuade her, “1 know that you value sisterhood, but I’m worried that you’ll hold on to hope and wait for Su Qian. Therefore, when I left, I specifically sent someone to find out about Su Qian’s situation. I learned that Su Qian had gone out with her two children, they headed out of the city and went boating by the lake.”
Gu Luoyang’s voice was so loud that it seemed as if he was afraid that the people present couldn’t hear it. It instantly traveled far away, causing everyone to be stunned.
On the day of their Ancestor’s funeral, Su Qian not only wasn’t grieving, but she also didn’t come. And yet she had taken her children out for leisurely boating?!
Everyone wore expressions of disbelief. They could not believe what they had heard.
“How could this be? How could Seventh Sister do such a thing? We’re family after all.” Su Yunxian seemed to be stunned, standing rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.
“Junior Sister, why don’t you understand? Su Qian stole your Su family’s inheritance and angered your Su family’s Ancestor to death. She’s a heartless thing!” Gu Luoyang’s words immediately garnered everyone’s agreement.
Feng Tianjiao and Yan Chen hadn’t expected to hear everyone criticizing Su Qian as soon as they arrived.
Feng Tianjiao’s anger surged from her heart. She lifted open the curtain of the carriage and jumped down. She pointed at Gu Luoyang and scolded him angrily, “Gu Luoyang, as a grown man, you’re good at nothing else, but you’re quite skilled at meddling in other people’s affairs. 1 would’ve thought you were a dog under Su Yunxian, considering how hard you’re trying to help her.”
Feng Tianjiao’s delicate voice sounded innocent, but what she said was more piercing than a knife. Everyone was stunned and looked at Feng Tianjiao in unison. They could not believe that such a pure-looking girl could say such unpleasant words.
Su Yunxian rolled her eyes and looked at Feng Tianjiao in confusion.
Wasn’t this the granddaughter of the Vice Sect Master of the Xuanyun Sect? Her status was noble, known for being a mischievous girl in the Xuanyun Sect. Why would she speak up for Su Qian today?
Gu Luoyang couldn’t think too much about it. He originally wanted to use Su Qian’s matter to leave a good impression in Su Yunxian’s heart. Who would have expected that Feng Tianjiao wouldn’t give him face? It infuriated him and his aura swept toward Feng Tianjiao. “Are you courting death? How dare you call me a dog?”
Gu Luoyang was a peak third-rank expert. His aura was far from ordinary, and he charged straight at Feng Tianjiao aggressively.
Feng Tianjiao’s heart tightened. An even more powerful aura came from the carriage behind her. It was like a ferocious beast that instantly shattered Gu Luoyang’s attack. The remaining shockwaves quietly spread, causing everyone’s faces to turn pale.
“Fifth-rank expert…?” Su Chenghua was shocked by the aura and found it hard to breathe. He watched in disbelief as the young man got out of the carriage..
