Gu Changge also said with a smile that Land of Celestial Suffering would be the first to be impacted. If possible, they should sever ties with them.

 

Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, Fairy Cai Yun, and the others were astounded upon hearing that. For some reason, they felt their backs turning cold.

 

They were wondering if Gu Changge was trying to signal something by saying so.

 

The Forces behind them indeed intended to sever ties with Land of Celestial Suffering, but no official order had been given.

 

“We’re not powerful enough to be of any use. When there’s chaos by then, those Dao Realm experts will deal with the matter. It’s pointless for us to worry.” Zi Yunchuan guffawed to shatter the solemn atmosphere.

 

“You have a point, Brother Yunchuan.” The others nodded while smiling.

 

They stopped talking about this matter and continued drinking wine. Moments later, the sounds of the zither from another place also stopped.

 

This surprised Zhao Tianfan, who had been attentively listening to the music. He was curious about the woman whose zither skills were just as great as those of Fairy Cai Yun. When the music stopped, he suggested going over to look for the woman.

 

“The woman who can play such music must be extraordinary.”

 

Zi Yunchuan and the others were curious as well, so they agreed to it.

 

However, not sooner had they left the room than some loud noise was heard coming from a nearby place.

 

“I’ve paid a huge price to purchase you. Even if I make you bed a guest, you’re supposed to do it, not to mention that I’m only asking you to drink with a guest. Do you think you can be a performer forever just because I’ve agreed to it? It’s your honour that the guest is interested in you. Yet, you’re pretty bold tonight. Not only did you push the guest’s wine cup away, but you also stopped playing the zither and ran out of the room. It’s fine that you refuse to play the zither. Go and bed the guest and make him happy. Don’t make me tie you up and send you to his room!” The middle-aged woman ferociously chastised the young lady.

 

These people did not expect to see such a scene. When they caught sight of what the middle-aged woman was holding, they were surprised. It was apparently a gift from a guest. Since they were all knowledgeable and experienced people, they could naturally recognise that it was a Sacred Phoenix Heart Stone.

 

Given their identities, it was not difficult for them to get a Sacred Phoenix Heart Stone, but they too would not easily give it away so easily.

 

It was, after all, material that could be used to make an Immortal Emperor Artifact, so it was invaluable. Sometimes, even Dao Realm experts would seek it out.

 

“Is she the one who played the amazing music?”

 

“There’s nothing special about her.”

 

Zhao Tianfan and the others were surprised to see the slender young woman who had fallen to the ground. She hung her head low as her hair concealed her face.

 

They initially thought the other party was a prodigy just like Fairy Cai Yun. Much to their surprise, she was only an ordinary performer in the Waterfront Chamber.

 

They were initially curious about her, but that was no longer the case.

 

The person who could easily give out a Sacred Phoenix Heart Stone surely came from a powerful background. As such, they would rather not offend him.

 

Although they were not afraid, they would not want to affront the other party over such a minor matter.

 

Therefore, Zhao Tianfan, Ming Ying, Fairy Cai Yun, and the others decided to steer clear of the matter and watch a good show from a distance.

 

Some guests stepped out of the other rooms. They were disciples of powerful Sects, and they were there to watch a good show.

 

[Why do I find her familiar? It’s as if I’ve seen her before.] Zi Yunchuan furrowed his brows. He caught sight of the woman looking in his direction, but he just ignored her. Such a matter frequently happened in the Waterfront Chamber. It was not rare at all.

 

“Brother Gu…”

 

Just then, Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, and the others were shocked to see Gu Changge going over there.

 

It never crossed their minds that Gu Changge would interfere in such a matter. They were rooted to the spot at that moment.

 

“Don’t force her to drink with a guest when she refuses to.” Gu Changge said. His voice was gentle, and his movements were slow.

 

He went over and bent his back to help the woman up. He could feel that the woman tensed up the moment he came into contact with her.

 

Her anxiety was only temporary. Although the woman in white clothes was seen with her eyelashes trembling, she did not turn down his kindness.

 

Gu Changge released the woman as soon as she got to her feet. He never did anything inappropriate.

 

After that, he took out a clean handkerchief, motioning for the woman to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

 

The veil that covered her face had been dyed red with blood.

 

The middle-aged woman did not hold back her strength when she furiously slapped the woman. That was why the white-clothed woman found it difficult to get up after falling to the ground.

 

“T-Thanks, sir.”

 

The white-clothed woman was startled when she saw the clean handkerchief. Her eyelashes trembled as though she was a terrified fawn. She took the handkerchief and thanked the man.

 

“S-Sir…” The ferocious middle-aged woman did not expect that someone would interfere in the matter to help Yi Yi at this point. Her face was stiff, and she stammered.

 

At that moment, she was rooted to the spot, not knowing what to do.

 

She had been managing the Waterfront Chamber for years, she had good observational skills.

 

Just now, she had heard how surprised Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, and the others were.

 

She knew that this young man in white clothes who was handsome and elegant was with them.

 

Naturally, she could recognise Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, and the others. Fairy Cai Yun was the descendant of an important figure from the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion. Her identity was noble.

 

She could not afford to offend any one of them.

 

In the other rooms, the disciples of the Major Forces, who were there to watch a good, show were surprised as well.

 

No one had expected that someone would lend this young lady a helping hand.

 

“He’s with Zi Yunchuan and the others. It’s rumoured that Zi Yunchuan was very polite to him.”

 

These people were astounded while looking at Gu Changge. Things were developing in a way that astonished them.
