n“Has the head of the Gu family forgotten? The three-day deadline is up,” Gu Qingluan reminded.

nGu Zhicheng snorted dismissively. “What three-day deadline?’

n“It seems that with age, the head of the Gu family has become forgetful,” Gu

nQingluan chuckled lightly. “Su Lie, please remind him.”

nStepping forward, Su Lie spoke. “Head of the Gu family, today is the day you were supposed to vacate Jun Mansion. If you need assistance, my comrades can lend a hand.”

n“This is the Gu family! Who are you to tell us to leave? We won’t budge!” Gu Zhicheng retorted, wearing an unyielding expression.

nAnticipating their resistance, Gu Qingluan had exhausted her patience over the course of three days.

n“Su Lie, take action,” she commanded firmly.

n‘Yes!” Su Lie nodded and gestured, prompting dozens of subordinates to charge towards Rongde Hall.

n“How dare you! Get out of here!” Gu Zhicheng saw the approaching figures and waved his sleeve in a dismissive manner.

nA surge of profound power rippled outward, creating waves like the sea.

nThe henchmen leaped to avoid the force and swiftly vaulted over the courtyard gate, breaching the walls.

nObserving Gu Qingluan audaciously sending people to invade the courtyard, Gu Zhicheng seethed with anger, his whiskers trembling. “You insolent girl! Since you insist on defying me, don’t expect me to show any familial mercy!”

nHe turned to the middle-aged man standing beside him and respectfully bowed. “Brother Li, I apologize for this situation. I ask for your help in dealing with this disobedient girl.”

nGu Qingluan had just noticed the presence of the middle-aged man by Gu Zhicheng’s side.

nHis eyes emanated a sharp yet restrained gaze, dressed in a simple black robe. His face exhibited determination, and a compelling aura surrounded him.

nSurname Li… Could it be Li Tianhao, the current head of the Li family?

nRecalling her memories, Gu Qingluan confirmed his identity as Li Tianhao.

nShe smiled softly. ‘This is a private dispute between the Gu and Jun families.

nHead of the Li family, are you truly determined to intervene?”

nLi Tianhao calmly regarded her. “The Gu and Li families have had a long-standing friendship, and you and I can be considered as uncle and niece. Allow me to advise you to show mercy when given the chance. The blood of the Gu family runs through your veins, an unchangeable fact. Despite any grudges or enmity, we are still family. Why create unnecessary hostility and provide outsiders with amusement?”

n“Gu Qingluan died five years ago!” Gu Qingluan smiled coldly.

nThe people present did not understand what she meant and thought that she had been heartbroken back then.

n“Is there no room for negotiation?” Li Tianhao asked.

n“If the head of the Li family leaves now, I will still address you as Uncle Li when we meet in the future. Otherwise, we will be enemies!’ Gu Qingluan declared.

nLi Tianhao let out a soft sigh. “So stubborn!”

nGritting his teeth, Gu Zhicheng said, “Li, stop wasting your words on her. I have tried to reason with her and appeal to her emotions multiple times in the past few days, as you have witnessed. No matter how much I say, it’s just a waste of breath. ”

nLi Tianhao walked to the bottom of the steps. “I’ll give you three moves.”

nGu Qingluan raised an eyebrow. ‘Thank you, Lord Li!”

nWithout hesitation, she made her move since he had offered. Li Tianhao’s expression slightly tensed.

nIn a battle between masters, the true extent of their skills becomes evident. Initially thinking that Gu Zhicheng’s description was exaggerated, Li Tianhao had to admit that Gu Qingluan was indeed formidable.

nHe realized that he needed to be careful; a slight oversight could lead to his defeat.

nBang!

nLi Tianhao intercepted Gu Qingluan’s hand.

n“One move.’

n“Lord Li, you truly live up to being an expert in the Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Realm. Much stronger than someone here,” Gu Qingluan lightly implied, casting a meaningful glance at a certain man beside her.

nGu Zhicheng understood the underlying meaning of her words, and his face immediately darkened.

nLi Tianhao replied, “You are also impressive!”

nHis Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Realm cultivation was no secret, so he wasn’t surprised when Gu Qingluan mentioned it.

n“Prepare yourself, Lord Li!”

nGu Qingluan smiled faintly. Her fist clenched as she aimed for Li Tianhao’s face.

nHer punch was unstoppable.

nThe sound of air being shattered caused Li Tianhao’s expression to change.

n“You…”

nHe swiftly evaded.

nA strand of his hair was swept away by the force of her punch, instantly severed into two pieces.

n‘You are also an expert in the Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Realm!”

nLi Tianhao landed not far away. His eyes filled with astonishment as he looked at Gu Qingluan..
