Lan Qingyan's Displeasure

The sun shone brightly, hanging high in the sky and casting strands of warm light across the lands of the Extreme North. The climate had become somewhat less frigid.

Lan Qingyan wore a turquoise qipao that wrapped around her voluptuous body. She looked dignified and proper, her gentle, obedient face adorned with light makeup. Her full lips had even been painted with pale blue lipstick, and her every gesture was elegant, noble, and graceful.

She had the servants take Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er to the dining hall for breakfast first, while she went to have Gu Shenggo's breakfast.

The beautiful woman walked to the door and raised her snow-white hand to push it open.

The instant the door opened, Lan Qingyan smelled an overwhelmingly lewd scent, making her instinctively cover her delicate nose with a hand.

But her expression changed slightly. That scent was far too familiar. Seeing the clothes scattered across the floor, she instantly guessed what had happened.

Lan Qingyan strode quickly to the bedside on her shapely legs. Her pupils contracted at once, and her face changed dramatically as she saw the scene she had feared most.

Those two slutty foxes, Hu Yun and Bai Yujie, lay together in Gu Shenggo's arms. They had already awakened at the sound of the door opening, and when they turned to see Lan Qingyan standing by the bed, both wore smug smiles.

Gu Shenggo slowly woke as well. He held Hu Yun and Bai Yujie in both arms, showing not the slightest embarrassment at being seen by Lan Qingyan enjoying himself with other women.

After all, his relationship with Lan Qingyan had been a transaction from the very beginning.

"Master, you're awake."

Seeing him awaken, the beautiful, mature women in Gu Shenggo's arms gazed at him with sultry eyes, their faces steeped in springtime desire. Their scarlet lips parted slightly, and in sweet, seductive, tingling voices, they called him Master.

Yet Gu Shenggo simply got up, his expression indifferent, and pushed away the beautiful mature woman and the seductive young woman in his arms, looking utterly like a man who had no intention of acknowledging them.

He stepped on Hu Yun's voluptuous, plump body as he got out of bed, showing not the slightest tenderness toward women.

Though Gu Shenggo had stepped on her as he climbed down from the bed, a trace of pain showed on Hu Yun's mature, glamorous face. Yet she voiced no complaint and maintained her ingratiating smile.

After all, winning the favor of an expert who was about to become a Titled Douluo and becoming his forbidden possession was a tremendous blessing to women like them.

On the Douluo Continent, the strong were revered. The weak either thought of ways to grow stronger or chose to cling to the strong.

Lan Qingyan watched Gu Shenggo leave the room, then looked at Hu Yun and Bai Yujie on the bed. She felt deeply displeased, yet she could not act. It would be bad if she made Mr. Gu unhappy.

"Humph! Two slutty foxes."

The beautiful woman snorted coldly. Not wanting to see them any longer, she turned and swayed her plump hips as she went after Gu Shenggo.

In the corridor, Gu Shenggo stretched his waist. He had not stopped all night. Though he was a little tired, he had enjoyed himself greatly.

Fun was fun, but business came first.

Tomorrow, he would head to the Extreme North Ice Plain to find the Three Kings of the Extreme North. However, the Extreme North Ice Plain was even larger than the Star Dou Great Forest. Finding them would not be easy, so he needed to think of a way.

As Gu Shenggo pondered this, crisp footsteps from high heels striking the floor sounded behind him. He turned around and saw the beautiful woman approaching with an alluring smile.

Lan Qingyan walked up to Gu Shenggo on her voluptuous legs and nestled directly into his embrace. A hint of tenderness showed on her noble, dignified face. Her voice was soft and gentle as her pale blue lips parted.

"Mr. Gu, if you need someone to serve you at night, you can come to me. There was no need to seek out those two slutty foxes."

"They offered themselves to me. It would have been impolite not to accept."

Gu Shenggo wrapped an arm around Lan Qingyan's voluptuous waist. It was soft without being overly fleshy, and it felt quite good—better even than that beautiful mature woman Hu Yun. That was the benefit of living in luxury; she had taken excellent care of herself.

Lan Qingyan had wanted to say that Gu Shenggo could have refused them, but considering that what was done was done, she knew saying more would only make him unhappy.

She continued, "Then how about I serve you tonight, Mr. Gu?"

"No need. Tomorrow, I plan to leave for the Extreme North Ice Plain."

Gu Shenggo looked at the noble beautiful woman in his arms and shook his head in refusal. Though he was lustful and promiscuous, he still knew his limits.

Lan Qingyan was somewhat disappointed. But upon hearing that Gu Shenggo was going to the Extreme North Ice Plain, she remembered that her daughter had already reached ten levels of Soul Power and could just happen to hunt for her first Soul Ring. She asked softly, "Sir, can you take Bing'er with you tomorrow to hunt Soul Beasts? She has already reached ten levels of Soul Power."

Gu Shenggo shook his head again. He was going to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and bringing Shui Bing'er along would be troublesome.

"No. I'm going to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. Taking Bing'er along would be too dangerous."

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? Are you truly going to do that?"

Hearing Gu Shenggo mention hunting a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast again, shock flashed through Lan Qingyan's beautiful eyes.

When she had heard him mention it before, she had thought he was joking. She had not expected him to truly intend to hunt one.

"Prepare the most detailed map of Soul Beast distribution in the Extreme North Ice Plain for me. I will depart tomorrow."

Gu Shenggo instructed Lan Qingyan. Having a map was better than searching blindly. The beautiful woman nodded, though hunting a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was far too dangerous. She had never even seen one herself and had only heard of them.

After dismissing Lan Qingyan, Gu Shenggo went to the dining hall for breakfast.

"Good morning, Uncle Gu!"

"Good morning, Uncle Gu!"

In the dining hall, two delicate blue-haired little girls sat together eating breakfast. When they saw Gu Shenggo, they greeted him in their sweet, childish voices.

Gu Shenggo walked up to the two little girls and raised a hand to pat their little heads. Looking at their adorable appearances, an idea arose in his heart.

He would teach them the Sword Heart Art.

The Sword Heart Art was most suitable for women to cultivate. Men could at most cultivate it to Wuchen, while women could cultivate it to Taixu.

The two little girls were at exactly the right age to cultivate the Sword Heart Art. Their hearts were pure, making them suited to tempering a sword heart.

"Bing'er, Yue'er, Uncle Gu has a miraculous mental cultivation method for cultivating Soul Power. Do you want to learn it? As long as you cultivate this method, you will certainly become Titled Douluo in the future."

Gu Shenggo smiled and spoke gently to the two little girls. Upon hearing that they could become Titled Douluo through cultivation, both showed eager expressions.

However, Shui Bing'er was clever and quick-witted. After thinking for a moment, she opened her little mouth and spoke in a clear, childish voice.

"Uncle Gu, can I ask Mother? If she agrees, Bing'er will cultivate it."

Seeing her sister say that she wanted to ask their mother, Shui Yue'er also said that she wanted to ask her mother.

Gu Shenggo nodded in agreement and told the two little girls to ask their mother first.

After breakfast, Gu Shenggo returned to his room. Bai Yujie had already left because she was concerned about her daughter, leaving only Hu Yun lying in bed, waiting for Gu Shenggo to continue enjoying himself.

But Gu Shenggo, having already eaten his fill last night, no longer had any appetite to sample Hu Yun again. Looking at her beautiful, seductive appearance, he said indifferently, "I'm tired of you. Leave this place."

Upon hearing this, disappointment appeared on the beautiful mature woman's glamorous, seductive face. But she did not dare defy Gu Shenggo and could only obediently get up from the bed, put on her clothes, and leave the room.

(Sigh... everyone understands. I got my license checked.)
