Gu Qingluan lowered her gaze, hiding her emotions behind her long and thick eyelashes. “Spare my life?”

“In the future, you must obey my every command! If I tell you to go east, you must never go west!” Gu Zhicheng’s tone softened slightly. “After all, you are my daughter. If you obediently follow my instructions, I may show leniency for the mistakes you have made.”

“Father, that’s not fair!”

Gu Si’er couldn’t contain herself and rushed forward.

“Father, Gu Qingluan has made numerous mistakes. We can’t forgive her so easily!’

Gu Qin’er couldn’t stop her and let out a sigh, hiding herself more discreetly behind the artificial mountain.

Gu Qingluan burst into laughter.

‘What’s so funny?” Gu Si’er glared at her with resentment. If looks could kill, Gu Qingluan would have been dead a thousand times over.

Her gaze casually swept across Gu Si’er’s face. “The ugly crown is acting like a fool, how amusing.”

Although Gu Si’er’s injuries were healing rapidly, there were still visible scars on her face.

This remark was a blatant mockery.

It struck at the core of Gu Si’er’s heart.

Her anger twisted her face, making her appear even more ferocious.

“You despicable person!”

Gu Si’er maintained a trace of composure and turned to Gu Zhicheng, using a coquettish tone. “Father, look at her! She shows no remorse! You mustn’t easily forgive her! She needs to face greater hardships to truly learn her lesson!’

Gu Zhicheng’s face darkened as he scolded, “Gu Qingluan, how dare you speak of your younger sister like that! Apologize to her immediately! ‘

Gu Si’er looked smugly at her. “Did you hear that? Apologize to me! I want you to kneel down and apologize!”

“If you enjoy kneeling, then kneel with gusto!”

With a clear flick of his finger, a sharp Qi blade shot out, finding its mark on Gu Si’er’s knees. She cried out in pain as her legs gave way uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face.

“You wicked child! How dare you harm your younger sister! If I don’t teach you a lesson today, I won’t stand for it!” Gu Zhicheng’s anger burned hot, his face flushed with indignation at her audacious act of attacking him directly.

He prepared to consume the Zengxuan Pill.

“I advise you against eating it, or you will regret it,” Gu Qingluan nonchalantly twirled her fingers through her hair, her words carrying a weighty implication.

Thinking she was afraid, Gu Zhicheng let out a scornful laugh. Without hesitation, he swallowed the Zengxuan Pill.

In an instant, a surge of energy spread outwards. Gu Zhicheng believed the medicine was taking effect, his eyebrows relaxing as he activated his profound power.

“Puff!”

A loud noise erupted, filling the air with a putrid stench.

Everyone’s expressions changed, hastily covering their noses as they retreated in horror.

Having anticipated this, Gu Qingluan had already flown far away.

“It stinks!”

“So foul! Goodness! How can it be so repulsive?”

“It seems… it seems like the lord farted!’

Gu Zhicheng, enveloped in the foul odor, turned pale, and upon hearing their discussions, he was consumed with anger, almost passing out from fury.

“Silence!”

At Gu Zhicheng’s roar, everyone fell into a frightening silence.

“Pfft!

However, at that moment, laughter erupted from someone.

Due to the eerie silence surrounding them, the laughter sounded particularly Jarring.

Gu Zhicheng immediately turned his head, his eyes piercing like daggers at the source of the laughter.

Gu Qingluan!

“Shut up! No laughing allowed!”

Just as he finished speaking, another “pfft” sound reverberated, and the foul odor permeated the air once more.

Those closer to the source turned pale, their discomfort evident, yet they restrained their reactions, their faces reddening from the effort of suppressing their repulsion.

Gu Zhicheng’s face darkened like coal.

“Old Master, did you consume something contaminated?” Wang Shi asked cautiously.

What kind of food could produce such a repugnant stench? It was toxic!

Wait a minute, the Zengxuan Pill he had just swallowed….
