Everyone was delighted when they saw Yun Tian come out, but then they noticed that Gu Lan was actually clinging to his arm.
"Master, I want to as well!"
As Huang Ying spoke, she hurried over and hugged Yun Tian's other arm. The others were also itching to move, hoping to find another free spot on him. Seeing things taking a bad turn, Yun Tian hastily said,
"Let's hurry and go, or we'll miss it."
With that, he ran off without waiting for them.
The women seethed inwardly as they watched Yun Tian flee.
At the Gu Family estate.
Nie Li and the others had also followed Gu Bei to the Gu Family gathering. Gu Bei had invited them to watch the fun.
Just as Nie Li and the others arrived, that idiot Gu Heng popped up again, saying he wanted to send someone to spar with Gu Bei. The cultivation Gu Bei displayed publicly was at the peak of the Earthly Mandate realm, whereas Gu Kuan, whom Gu Heng sent out, was at the Heavenly Mandate realm. He was plainly looking to teach Gu Bei a lesson.
Gu Bei thought it over. Nie Li had just told him that he should reveal some of his strength to contend for the position of family head, so he agreed.
They stepped onto the platform. The moment the match began, Gu Kuan held nothing back, charging straight in with a killing move. Gu Bei, meanwhile, seemed to reach his limit every time, his steps unsteady. Just when it looked as though he would be struck, he slipped out of the way by a split second. Everyone could only put it down to good luck.
While the fight was in full swing, Yun Tian and his companions appeared right beside Nie Li's group.
