Chapter 190: Scumbag Family Members

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Dad, my arcane power, my arcane power is gone!” Gu Jinrong grabbed his father’s hand, his emotions flaring, his voice hoarse.

Gu Zhixin’s expression slightly changed, trying to reassure him, “Don’t worry, you will be cured, you’ve only temporarily lost your arcane power.”

Gu Jinrong shook his head, almost going mad. “It won’t come back! It’s gone forever!”

The poison was given to him by Yue’er, and he knew its properties very well.

He lost his cultivation!

He would be a cripple from now on!

“It will come back, trust me, 1 will find the best doctor to detoxify you.” Gu Zhixin felt heartache watching his son’s frantic appearance.

“Tsk, you seem very clear about the fact that your arcane power can’t be restored!”

A clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out.

It was the First Lady of the Gu family!

She walked towards Gu Jinrong with a slight smile on her lips, a smile that could easily captivate anyone.

But Gu Jinrong, upon meeting her gaze, felt immense fear from the depths of his heart, instinctively retreating backward.

Gu Zhixin opened his arms, shielding his son, and expressed deep resentment towards the woman who scared his son.

“Gu Qingluan, you wicked woman, don’t come any closer!”

Swish!

A chilling light flashed, shooting towards Gu Zhixin.

He couldn’t avoid it in time, and the arcane power grazed his cheek, instantly drawing blood.

Gu Xiaonan stood next to Gu Qingluan, his typically cheerful countenance now frozen in ice-cold seriousness. “Those who insult my mother shall be punished!”

Gu Zhixin was so angry that he staggered backward.

Little brat, how dare he threaten him!

Gu Zhixin was infuriated and raised his hand to strike back, but caught a glimpse of Gu Qingluan’s unwavering smile, and his heart tightened.

He knew that hitting her was tantamount to seeking death.

He suppressed the raging fury inside him.

Clenching his fists, he could only glare at them with anger but dared not utter a word.

Gu Qingluan said lazily, “Step aside!”

“What do you want to do?”

“Kill.”

The words “kill” were uttered with utter frankness, as if she was telling someone that she wanted to have a meal, without any attempt to conceal it.

Gu Zhixin was shocked. “You dare!”

Gu Qingluan glanced at him, “Or should 1 kill you first?”

Her eyes exuded killing intent.

She meant it!

This woman had gone insane!

She actually dared to kill in public!

Gu Zhixin recalled Gu Qingluan’s ruthless methods, and a chill ran down his spine.

Instinctively, he wanted to dodge and escape!

But he couldn’t.

His son was in no condition to move right now. If he ran away, what would happen to his son?

Who could save them?

Gu Zhixin thought of Gu Zhicheng, hoping for his help.

Naturally, Gu Zhicheng couldn’t just stand by and watch them being killed by Gu Qingluan.

Seeing the Crown Prince remain silent, Gu Zhicheng cleared his throat and tried to persuade them.

The gist of his words was that they were all family, and they shouldn’t harm each other.

Gu Qingluan retorted sarcastically, “Family? Those who poisoned my son and tried to harm him are nothing but a bunch of scumbag family members!”

Gu Zhicheng was taken aback.

Even using foul language, it was evident that she was extremely furious.

Gu Qingluan glanced at him, her voice light and breezy, “If you wish to assist them, feel free to do so, but from this moment onward, there will be no more ties between us!”

She knew exactly what Gu Zhicheng cared most about.

To get on board with the Island of No Return, he could abandon his pride, let alone others.

Are siblings more important than pride?

Gu Zhicheng’s pupils shrank rapidly, and his breathing became heavier, “You…”

After careful consideration, he gritted his teeth and gave in. “Fine, I won’t stop you from seeking revenge, but I hope you spare Rong’er’s life. He is already a cripple; there’s no need to exterminate him completely and carry the burden of harming your own kin.”

“Elder Brother!” Gu Zhixin looked at him incredulously.

What did Elder Brother mean by this?

Did he just compromise with Gu Qingluan?

Would he stop helping them?

But they were his own nephew and niece!
