"In na, so many people already consider you to be Ruyi’s man! You say you’re helping her fend off coveting gazes.
Yes, you’re right!
But at the sa ti, she’s taken on the title of being your woman, which ans she’s cut all her own paths as well!
With you as the eldest son of the Gu Family and the leader of the Brotherhood, even if there are good n who like Ruyi, who would dare approach her?"
Gu Jinjia gritted his teeth and fell silent.
It was obvious that Chen Yan knew deep down that what was being said was true.
"Over the years, the brothers in the Brotherhood have tried to match us up, overtly and covertly, many tis." Gu Jinjia shook his head slowly: "In my heart, I just feel guilty towards Ruyi’s sister."
"Stop it, you’re just being cowardly." Chen Yan rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, cowardly if you like." Gu Jinjia said in a low voice: "In another three months, it will be the anniversary of Jixiang’s death. After this year’s anniversary, I intend to resolve these feelings and be with Ruyi properly, and marry her into the Gu Family."
Pausing, Gu Jinjia looked at Chen Yan: "After I get married, I can’t keep being this Loose Cultivator big brother outside. I’m a son of the Gu Family, and I have to bear the family responsibilities. After this, I have to serve in the War Departnt; the Three Platforms, Eight Passes, and Sixteen Towns—I have to join the military in one of these places."
He looked at Chen Yan: "I’m going off-topic... but when I get married, you and the brothers must co! I’m after all the eldest son of the Gu Family, by then, the whole White Jade City will be thoroughly lively..."
Chen Yan was stunned for a mont.
Go... to this uncle’s banquet?
Go to the Gu Family?
Damn! Wouldn’t that an running into Young Lady Gu!
Though I know Gu Qingyi would never do anything to harm ...
But once I show up in front of Gu Qingyi! Doesn’t that an the secret of how I "smuggle" into the Domain Realm would be revealed to her!
Thinking of this, Chen Yan changed the subject: "Brother Jin Jia, you didn’t just bring over tonight to talk about your love life, did you?"
Gu Jinjia laughed heartily, waved his hand, poured Chen Yan a bowl of tea, then put away the smile and said solemnly: "I heard when I got back that you took the White Beast back to Snow Cliff Pass!"
Chen Yan glanced at Gu Jinjia: "When we were stealing the Divine Tree Juice, didn’t you already see with it?"
Gu Jinjia was silent for a mont, seeming to contemplate his words, and slowly said: "Back when we were seizing the Divine Tree Juice, I was shocked to see you had actually recruited the White Beast.
But the White Beast had been appearing near Evil Land Mountain for many years; it would occasionally show up and participate in our fights against the Fierce Beast Race.
So people had previously received help from the White Beast, so I just thought it had appeared suddenly again like in the past, intervening in the battle.
Afterwards we t in the forest and fled together, but the White Beast wasn’t with you, so I thought that it helping you was maybe a re coincidence—sothing that had happened before.
But when I ca back this ti and heard that you actually took the White Beast back with you, I was greatly shocked."
As he spoke, Gu Jinjia’s face darkened, and he said slowly: "Brother, I won’t ask you what thods you used to subdue the White Beast.
But... you shouldn’t have taken it back to Snow Cliff Pass! You have no idea how precious it really is!"
Chen Yan felt a stir in his heart but deliberately remained calm, saying: "I know, a Spiritual Immortal Beast."
Gu Jinjia chuckled, yet the smile didn’t seem relaxed.
"The White Beast is not an ordinary Spiritual Immortal Beast..."
