Chapter 49 Marriage Proposal
After seeing that his little wife liked this sword, Gu Yu was immediately relieved, thinking it was fortunate that there weren’t too many mistakes.
If, because of the monster’s concealment, the gift-giving ended badly…
Gu Yu felt he would have ended the monster with a single sword, so it wouldn’t see the rising sun tomorrow.
“Yu, the current color, I like it very much! It’s too beautiful, is this the true color of Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice?”
Fondling the long sword, Mengyao then asked curiously, not knowing that Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice had such a beautiful color!
She also thought… it was bright red as if blood was flowing, and Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice was originally red.
“Yes, previously, because the monster killed too many people and also absorbed a lot of human blood, the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice turned red, covering its original color.”
“So that’s how it is, but didn’t the monster say before… that carrying Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice can absorb malevolent energy and prevent deviating from the correct path?”
“Those were all lies made up by the monster to deceive us. I have already placed it in the Space Spring Water. I believe after a period of purification, it will also recover its original appearance.”
As Gu Yu replied to his little wife’s questions, he remembered the monster that was still in the Space. He immediately decided to ignore it, as it wouldn’t die anytime soon anyway.
Besides, he was still angry! He didn’t want to forgive the monster so quickly, in case it relapsed into old habits.
…
Afterwards, to avoid delaying their return home, Gu Yu and his party didn’t waste too much time. Instead, they hurried towards Lian Town.
It would have been better if there were no obnoxious guys on the road, so Mengyao could try out the new sword’s power.
However, they did test it on animals and found that after purification by the Space Spring Water, the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice was no longer as violent and cruel as before.
But when attacking, it would freeze a layer around the wound, making the opponent’s body stiff and slowing down their attack speed.
Thinking about the new sword’s power made Mengyao even more eager to return home, so she could have more time to research.
Gu Yu felt the same. He thought about Zituan, who was still lying in the Space. To this day, he didn’t know her specific condition.
Whether she was alive or already dead?
Everything awaited his exploration…
Xi Yang, on the other hand, was thinking that after returning, he would ask Gu Yu to write a letter to the Capital Alliance, asking when Little Red could come over.
Before, in Tianxiang Town, besides worrying about Gu Qingheng and Tang Lian, he also had reluctance towards Little Red, which made Xi Yang unwilling to die.
He hadn’t even married and had children with Little Red, how could he die young so soon!
When he married Little Red, he would have to ask Gu Laoda to give him a big red envelope.
Thus, with this belief, Xi Yang waited for Gu Yu and Mengyao to arrive!
However, among the four, the one who least wanted to go home was Gu Qingheng.
Once home, he would surely be forced to practice martial arts with Zhuo Fei, and then they would become muscular men…
Ah, he couldn’t even imagine that scene!
Although Gu Qingheng later tried to resist his sister, it had no effect.
Instead, Mengyao repeatedly warned him not to have any侥幸 and to practice martial arts!
Thus, some were happy, and some were worried.
After arriving in Lian Town, covered in dust, they finally reached home!
“Hoo! It’s good to be home. Even the air feels sweet.”
“Brother-in-law, you’re exaggerating. It’s not that the air is sweet, it’s just that there are vendors selling sugar-roasted chestnuts nearby.”
“Qingheng, you kid, you’re ruining the mood.”
“What mood? As soon as I think about practicing martial arts when I get home, I want to cry.”
Ignoring his little brother-in-law, who looked like he was about to cry, Gu Yu immediately got off the carriage. Looking at the bustling street in front of him, he couldn’t help but sigh that home was indeed the best!
Although it was also leisurely and carefree in the Tang Sect, it was not as comfortable as being at home.
As expected, he was a homebody…
“Yu, should we go back to Yang Family Village immediately?”
“No, let’s go and see Qingshan Academy first. We haven’t been back for so long, I don’t know what Director Qingshan’s relationship with Ruan Zhongjing and Lu Xing is like… Director Qingshan just found his son, perhaps the relationship won’t be too smooth.”
“Okay, let’s go to Qingshan Academy first, and then go home.”
Seeing Gu Yu get off the carriage, Mengyao didn’t continue riding her horse. Instead, she nimbly dismounted, led the horse to Gu Yu’s side, and asked where they were going next.
When she heard they were going to Qingshan Academy, Mengyao didn’t object, her decision would be based on Gu Yu’s.
Moreover, Mengyao was also very worried about Director Qingshan’s situation…
After all, he was her brother’s teacher, and Mengyao was very grateful to Director Qingshan!
Gu Qingheng naturally did not object to the decision to go to Qingshan Academy, so Gu Yu and his party quickly headed towards the academy.
“Oh my, I heard that Director Qingshan found his son who had been missing for many years. That’s truly cause for celebration!”
“Not only that, but it is said that his son was a child prodigy from a young age, and he is even smarter now! Moreover, he is handsome, and many prominent families in town have sent matchmakers to propose marriage. I wonder which one he will fancy.”
“Perhaps he won’t fancy any of them! After all, he was brought back from the Capital, so his standards must be very high. How could he fancy girls from our town.”
“What’s wrong with the town girls? The famous Gu Mengyao, the Cavalry Lieutenant, is also from our Lian Town!”
“Don’t argue with me, I’m just stating facts.”
“But I think Director Qingshan’s son should stay in Lian Town, after all, he has to inherit his father’s business.”
When Gu Yu and the others arrived at Qingshan Academy, they saw many people gathered at the entrance, which immediately made Gu Yu curious. He wondered what had happened!
Listening, it was related to Ruan Zhongjing???
However, considering his age was just right, and he was also good-looking, and now with the title of Director Qingshan’s son… it was understandable that matchmakers would flock to him. If he were unmarried, he would also be swarmed.
Hmm… perhaps, after all, he wasn’t bad-looking either, although he seemed a bit lazy and loved to sleep in…
“Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I found out. It turns out Ruan Zhongjing is proposing marriage.”
“Proposing marriage???”
Just as Gu Yu was in doubt, Gu Qingheng had already squeezed into the crowd. Within a few minutes, he returned, saying with gossip-filled expression.
Gu Qingheng was always good at mixing in such bustling scenes and easily obtained the information he wanted.
Hearing this, Gu Yu’s eyes were immediately filled with shock. He thought, it’s only been a short while since they last met, why is he already proposing marriage???
