Chapter 374: Chapter 374: The Unfriendly Gu Cangyue

A day later, when Zhu Fei fully awoke from his coma, he was shocked to discover that all the injuries on his body had completely healed.

His heart was struck with great surprise.

Without further thought, Zhu Fei immediately rose from the ’bed’ and went straight toward the door of his room.

He wanted to find Gu Youlan.

On one hand, he needed to confirm Gu Youlan’s current condition, and on the other, he needed to understand his current circumstances, as well as what exactly had happened before.

...

"Young Master Zhu, the Pavilion Master instructed me to bring you to him as soon as you woke up; he has something to ask you."

As soon as Zhu Fei opened the door of his room, a female disciple standing outside greeted him with a smile.

Zhu Fei was startled at first, but he quickly understood that the Pavilion Master the female disciple referred to must be Gu Cangyue, the Pavilion Master of Treasure Pavilion.

He thought for a while and did not refuse, nodding and saying, "Okay, then I’ll trouble you to lead the way, Sister."

"Hehe, Young Master Zhu, there is no need for politeness. Since you are a friend of our young mistress, you are an honored guest of Treasure Pavilion. Please follow me," the female disciple said with a slight smile, extending her hand in a welcoming gesture before leading the way.

...

"May I ask Sister, how is our young mistress doing now? And where is she at the moment?"

On the way, worried about Gu Youlan’s condition, Zhu Fei finally couldn’t hold back and asked.

The female disciple paused, surprised by Zhu Fei’s question, but in the end, she replied, "The young mistress is currently with the Pavilion Master. Young Master Zhu, you will see her as soon as you get there. Do you have any other matters to discuss with our young mistress?"

Hearing that Gu Youlan was with Gu Cangyue eased Zhu Fei’s anxious heart slightly.

He smiled at the female disciple and shook his head, saying, "Nothing in particular, I was just asking."

While they were talking, they arrived at a door.

The female disciple pushed the door open, reported inside, and then smiled at Zhu Fei, "Young Master Zhu, the Pavilion Master and the young mistress are inside. They invite you to enter."

Zhu Fei nodded and without hesitation, stepped inside.

It was an extremely spacious hall, adorned with ancient beams and painted rafters, furnished with many rare and exotic calligraphy and paintings.

In the middle, a purple incense burner wafted threads of incense smoke, creating a feeling of refreshment and delight upon smelling it.

Zhu Fei knew it was Spirit Clearing Incense, which could help cultivators clear their Divine Sense. It had an excellent reputation among the lower ranks of the Cultivation World.

However, he clearly had no mind to pay attention to these details.

In fact, the moment Zhu Fei entered the hall, all his attention was immediately focused on Gu Youlan, who was in front of him.

As usual, Gu Youlan was dressed in a black outfit today, her perfect beauty and figure unchanged, her face still wearing an affable smile.

The only thing that had changed was her hair.

What used to be dark, waterfall-like tresses had now completely turned white.

Zhu Fei immediately realized that the change in Gu Youlan’s hair color was undoubtedly related to her using her own blood to heal his wounds the day before.

As soon as he thought of this, a nameless pain surged in Zhu Fei’s heart, and his facial expression became slightly stiff.

He really wanted to ask Gu Youlan why she had helped him like that yesterday.

But when the words reached his lips, he stifled them back.

The reason was nothing other than the current environment not being suitable for asking.

"You’re Zhu Fei?"

At this moment, Gu Cangyue, who was sitting beside Gu Youlan, suddenly gazed at Zhu Fei with an authoritative demeanor.

His face was expressionless, and the tone of his voice carried a subtle, invisible pressure.

This made Zhu Fei’s heart immediately furrow with concern.

He felt that Gu Cangyue seemed somewhat displeased with him.

As for why he was displeased, Zhu Fei could somewhat guess, it was probably related to the changes in Gu Youlan today.

But no matter what, Zhu Fei, in his past life, was ultimately a sovereign ruler. Even though his temperament may have slightly changed now, he still found Gu Cangyue’s manner of questioning somewhat unacceptable.

"Yes, I am Zhu Fei. May I ask what business the senior has sought me out for? Please speak plainly."

Without waiting for Gu Cangyue to speak, Zhu Fei gave a slight bow with his fist and then found a seat for himself to sit down.

Seeing Zhu Fei behave in this way, Gu Youlan immediately raised her delicate eyebrows, and a slight smile formed on her lips once again.

"Hmph, what arrogance. Do you really think that escaping from Black Crow Daoist’s clutches means you can disregard everyone?" Gu Cangyue’s face revealed a cold smile.

He didn’t wait for Zhu Fei to speak; an immensely overwhelming pressure suddenly descended, falling squarely upon Zhu Fei!

"Young man, I sought you out today for one thing only, and I hope you will answer my question truthfully."

Gu Cangyue stood up abruptly, his eyes sharply sweeping towards Zhu Fei, as if he wanted to see through all of Zhu Fei’s secrets with this gesture.

At this point, how could Zhu Fei not know that Gu Cangyue was not harboring any good intentions by summoning him, that he really just wanted to cause him trouble?

Realizing this, Zhu Fei’s demeanor also became abruptly colder.

Ignoring the oppressive aura from Gu Cangyue, he turned his head and said directly, "Master Gu, if you have any questions, just ask them. If I can answer, I naturally will."

The implication was clear—if there were questions he did not wish to answer, he naturally would not.

Moreover, the change in address from ’senior’ to ’Master Gu’ also showed how displeased Zhu Fei was with Gu Cangyue’s current attitude.

"Haha, young man, you’ve got guts. Fine, I’ll ask you now—what exactly is your relationship with my daughter You Lan? Why did you risk your life to come to Treasure Pavilion?"

The moment Gu Cangyue asked this, Gu Youlan’s expression immediately changed.

Without any suspense, Gu Youlan stood up from her seat and said calmly to Gu Cangyue,

"If I remember correctly, you just said you called Zhu Fei over to ask him about the situation with Black Crow, didn’t you? How did it suddenly turn to the matter of our relationship?"

Gu Cangyue seemingly did not expect such a strong reaction from his daughter; he was momentarily taken aback before becoming furiously angry.

He slapped the armrest and glared at Gu Youlan, "Gu Youlan, what kind of attitude is this? Is this how you talk to your own father?"

Gu Youlan was equally unyielding, her tone cold as she retorted, "What attitude? I should be asking you, what is your attitude? What relationship I have with Zhu Fei, how is it your concern?"
