863: Chapter 863: Reduced to a Hostage 863: Chapter 863: Reduced to a Hostage As agreed, Gu Ling made a weekly visit to Qian Feng to report her cultivation progress and to see if Qian Feng would impart any new knowledge to her, depending on the situation.
It must be said that Gu Ling’s talent was astonishing; she had already learned how to gather supernatural power, albeit at a basic level.
Yet, this progress, this talent, made Qian Feng extrely envious.
More than once, Qian Feng had said that if she had Gu Ling’s talent back in ancient tis, she would have been invincible under the heavens, united the world, and then swept away all the stinking n, allowing won to take power.
Now, seeing Gu Ling, Qian Feng’s hopes were reignited.
She hoped that Gu Ling could carry on her dream and strive for it for the rest of her life.
Gu Ling expressed that she would not let Qian Feng’s cultivation go to waste, but at the sa ti, she also indicated that won’s status in the family was on the rise nowadays, and their status in society was already decent.
To continue raising won’s status in society would be leaving no room for n to live.
Qian Feng didn’t care; at least she wanted to give it a try in her view.
Now, Gu Ling had reached the mid-mountain villa area, eagerly looking forward to getting more guidance from Qian Feng today.
But as she was about to approach Qian Feng’s residence, a sudden sensation of danger overwheld her.
“How could this be!” Gu Ling trusted her instincts, as they had never been wrong before.
Gu Ling knew she couldn’t go any further; she imdiately turned around and ran downhill.
But after only a few steps, she sensed danger on the path leading down the mountain as well.
Now she was trapped, with no safe passage forward or backward.
Gu Ling beca anxious, wondering what was happening.
At that mont, a faint voice sounded from behind Gu Ling, “Xiaoling, since you’ve co, why are you leaving?”
“Sister Qian Feng!” Gu Ling turned around and saw Qian Feng with an expressionless face.
For so reason, Gu Ling felt nervous, and her heartbeat began to quicken.
“Alright, co with .” Having said that, Qian Feng grabbed Gu Ling’s hand and forcibly led her towards the villa.
The closer they got to the villa, the more dangerous it felt.
However, Gu Ling didn’t sense any danger from Qian Feng, which was odd because the villa was where Qian Feng lived.
“Why?
Why?” Gu Ling wondered.
If this dangerous feeling didn’t co from Qian Feng, who else inside the villa could an her harm?
Could it be Qian Ying, Qian Xue, or Ning Qi?
But they all obeyed Qian Feng.
Suddenly, Gu Ling thought of soone, and her face paled instantly.
She quickly pulled out her phone, but didn’t grip it firmly, and it dropped.
In a panic, she blurted out, “Sister Qian Feng, I just rembered sothing.
I have to go.
I’ll co back another day.”
Qian Feng naturally knew that Gu Ling had realized sothing, but she held onto Gu Ling’s arm tightly, then with a forceful swing and a gust of wind, she ushered Gu Ling into the villa.
Thus, Gu Ling fell onto the floor of the villa’s hall, landing with a painful thud on her buttocks, which oddly pleased her.
Then she protested, “Sister Qian Feng, what on earth are you doing?
Why are you so violent?”
“Sorry, Xiaoling, to trouble you like this.” After finishing her apology, Qian Feng glanced at the stairs with a solemn expression.
Gu Ling noticed Qian Feng’s expression was off and looked toward the stairs, only to see a familiar face descending.
“Sister Qian Ye, is that you?” Gu Ling panicked, wanting to run, but saw Qian Ying and Qian Xue blocking the door, quashing any thoughts of escape.
“Xiaoling, we haven’t seen each other for so long.
Why do you want to run away as soon as you see ?
This hurts my feelings,” Qian Ye said while gently tidying Gu Ling’s disheveled hair, displaying a very gentle, considerate, and friendly deanor.
However, Gu Ling knew Qian Ye was no good person and asked, “What do you want to do?”
Qian Ye smiled faintly, “My request is actually very simple.
I love this era too much and I’m too fond of all of you friends.
I want to stay, but your brother is such a stubborn man, insisting on sending back.
Tell , if I look exactly like Lin Xi, and Lin Xi is my reincarnated self, we’re basically the sa person, why does he have to swap back with Lin Xi?”
Gu Ling showed a disdainful expression, “Because Sister Lin Xi loves my brother, is willing to marry him, and has done so much for him.
Can you do that?”
“Whatever Lin Xi can do, I can do too,” Qian Ye said without hesitation, instantly perplexing Gu Ling.
Soon, Gu Ling ca to her senses and vehently rejected the notion, “Even if my brother is willing to accept it, I’m not happy.
In my heart, my sister-in-law can only be Sister Lin Xi.
Wouldn’t it be better for you to go back to the ancient tis and be a queen?
Haven’t you heard the saying ‘better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix’?”
Upon hearing this, Qian Ye’s face darkened, “Alright, enough with the nonsense.
Since you don’t accept , and neither does Gu Fan, let’s be direct.
We’ll trade you for Gu Fan’s space-ti door, or else…”
“Or what, you’ll hurt ?” Gu Ling looked incredulous, and Qian Ye snorted coldly, “If Gu Fan doesn’t cooperate, Xiaoling, don’t bla .
You’re so young, you haven’t even been in love yet.”
To this, Gu Ling still looked unconvinced, “You want to hurt ?
Go ahead.
Sister Qian Feng won’t allow it.”
Qian Ye was unconcerned, “Today, it was Qian Feng who helped capture you.
Whom do you think Qian Feng will side with?”
“If Sister Qian Feng intended to harm , I would have sensed the danger when she approached earlier.
But I didn’t, which ans Sister Qian Feng won’t harm , nor will she allow others to do so.” After saying this, Gu Ling glanced at Qian Feng with interest, and Qian Feng, maintaining her silence, seed to agree.
“Sisters of Shennv Xuanhui shall not harm each other; that’s a rule you and Sister Qian Feng agreed upon.
And you know better than I do how severe the punishnt is for breaking this rule,” Gu Ling said confidently, even looking at Qian Ye with a provocative glint in her eye.
However, Qian Ye’s lips curled into a sinister smile, “You guess correctly, Gu Ling.
Although Qian Feng agreed to help catch you, she does not approve of hurting you.
Even if Gu Fan won’t trade you for the space-ti door, I can’t harm you.
But the thing is, Gu Fan doesn’t know this, and he will worry, he will be scared.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Ling’s heart sank; she knew the gravity of the situation and that she needed to inform Gu Fan as soon as possible.
However, her phone had been left outside, and all contact with the outside world was completely cut off.
“Well then, Gu Ling, you should rest in seclusion for the next few days.” Having said that, Qian Feng signaled with her eyes for Qian Xue to take Gu Ling to the basent.
Seeing this, Qian Ye felt displeased, “Big sister, you really do care about this Gu Ling.”
In response, Qian Feng didn’t say anything but simply turned and walked away.
For so reason, she felt a bit of dislike for Qian Ye.
