Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: 048 You’re in trouble now (2/2)
“Are you serious?”
Gu Yang was shocked, “I didn’t intentionally target her. Can her Daoist heart be shattered so easily? Is it as fragile as glass?”
Ling Ling heard a strange term and asked, “Glass heart? What is that?”
She didn’t know about glass?
Gu Yang had an idea. Now that he thought about it, he had never seen any glass products since he transmigrated.
He suddenly saw a road to wealth. Glass manufacture is definitely an essential skill for a transmigrator…
No, now is not the time to think about this.
It’s the Sword Palace we’re talking about, a giant entity even more formidable than the Lin family that dominates Jiangzhou. The Sword Palace’s master himself is a cultivator in the Divine Power Realm.
Disabling his close disciple is a big grudge indeed.
Gu Yang asked half in hope, “Is there any way to rectify this?”
“Yes, you can allow her to kill you. This would naturally help her rebuild her Daoist heart, and further improve her cultivation.”
In Gu Yang’s eyes flickered a murderous intent, “Or else, find a deserted location and do in both of them.”
Ling Ling said solemnly, “The old man with Xu Ruomei is a second-grade Sword Slave.”
Second grade…
Never mind, he probably wouldn’t be able to block even one of the man’s sword strikes.
It made sense, too. With a disciple of the Sword Palace master herself going on walks without anyone to protect her? That would be unreasonable. Gu Yang was somewhat shocked, “A second-grade cultivator is a Sword Slave?”
Ling Ling explained, “In the Sword Palace, disciples who remain in the second-rank after fifty years of age can only stay if they decide to become Sword Slaves, serving the Sacred Sword in the palace for life.”
“Of course, you don’t have to worry too much. As long as Xu Ruomei is alive, the Sword Slave won’t attack you. She will handle this matter herself.”
Gu Yang understood what she meant, “So you’re saying, if Xu Ruomei dies, he will take action to get rid of me?”
“Not only would he kill you, but he would also kill your entire family.”
Ling Ling’s words shattered his last bit of hope.
It seemed that the world did not have those famous, rule-abiding sects from the novels.
This was indeed an unprovoked disaster.
Gu Yang couldn’t help but sigh, knowing he had gotten himself into yet another mess.
Counting with his fingers, he had cultivated a handful of enemies within a month of leaving his home. The Liu family, the fifth prince, the Shen family, and now the Sword Palace…
Compared to the others, Liu family seemed to be the weakest.
Therefore, a life simulator is not omnipotent.
In the last simulation, he and Ling Ling teamed up to easily deal with Tian Fei. This situation did not occur at all.
But this time, his strength had increased significantly and he was eager to show off his strongest saber intent. But who knew that it would bring him such a big trouble.
A single variable completely altered the trajectory of his future.
This was a lesson indeed.
After Gu Yang got home, he called over Zhang Xiao Hai, “Contact the Fang Family and the Heavenly Dragon Gang to see if they have any interest in Tian’s trade business and warehouse.”
Zhang Xiao Hai was taken aback and asked for clarification, “Ah? Young Master, you mean…”
“Starting tomorrow, Tian’s trade business and warehouse will be under my control. I plan to sell them.”
Gu Yang originally planned to keep the trade business for a steady income stream. But now, things have changed and his immediate need to increase his power had him resorting to cashing in..
