Gu Qingluan anticipated his move and swiftly avoided it.

Gu Zhicheng lunged, but his target was now empty. He sneered. “Do you think you can bring me down like this? I am a Saint! Let’s see who can accuse me!”

His sharp gaze pierced toward Shuntian Preference’s Magistrate.

The Magistrate of Shuntian Preference turned pale, beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead.

Gu Qingluan didn’t expect the Magistrate to have the courage to act against Gu Zhicheng. She turned to Qi Tianyou

With a stern expression, Qi Tianyou commanded, “Gu Family Head, you are flaunting your power! The one you poisoned was the birth mother of the Guardian Princess of the Nation. With solid evidence now, you won’t escape justice. Guards! Detain Gu Zhicheng!”

Gu Zhicheng’s eyes gleamed with a sharp and blade-like intensity. He swiftly waved his sleeve, releasing a powerful burst of mysterious energy directly at the Crown Prince.

As the Crown Prince held a prestigious status, only he could divert Gu Qingluan’s attention, allowing Gu Zhicheng a chance to escape.

However, Gu Qingluan paid no attention to Qi Tianyou. In a flash, she intercepted Gu Zhicheng, her palm emitting a white radiance, and aimed her attack at his chest.

Gu Zhicheng’s expression changed suddenly, and he hastily stepped back. He summoned his most cherished weapon and simultaneously dodged while launching a counterattack.

He had never been a match for Gu Qingluan in the first place, and now the disparity was even more pronounced.

A mocking smile curved on Gu Qingluan’s lips. She unleashed her Golden Silkworm Thread from her fingertips, snaring Gu Zhicheng’s weapon, and pulling it back toward her. Simultaneously, she dashed forward, swiftly closing the distance. Her hand clenched into a fist, aimed directly at his face.

Yanked in by her, Gu Zhicheng swiftly sensed the force of her incoming punch.

He had no time to think; he released his weapon immediately and backpedaled.

Gu Qingluan tossed his weapon back at him.

The freed Golden Silkworm Thread, like golden lightning, closed in on Gu Zhicheng again.

Distracted by defending against his own weapon’s attack, Gu Zhicheng didn’t notice. He was ensnared once more by the Golden Silkworm Thread, and his arcane power rapidly drained from his body.

With a forceful tug, Gu Zhicheng was dragged to the center of the hall, landing sprawled on his back.

The people from Shuntian Preference had already retreated to the corner, their expressions filled with disbelief as they witnessed the head of the Gu Family Head in such a humiliating state.

Wasn’t the Gu Family Head a Saint?

Was this all he had to offer?

He was too weak!

Gu Zhicheng heard the gasps of astonishment around him. He didn’t need to look to know what they were thinking.

He despised Gu Qingluan for embarrassing him in such a way. His face flushed red with anger.

As he fought to get back on his feet, his arms remained firmly bound to his body. The more he wriggled, the more the Golden Silkworm Thread constricted around him, inflicting excruciating pain. His once expressive face contorted in agony, resembling that of a tormented soul.

After Gu Qingluan had subdued him, she didn’t even spare him a glance. She turned to Qi Tianyou and asked, “Your Highness, are you hurt?”

Qi Tianyou shook his head. “Thanks to Mr. Lan, I’m fine. There’s no harm done.”

Gu Qingluan nodded in approval. When Gu Zhicheng tried to escape, she remembered that Feng Tianlan was sitting right next to the Crown Prince, which was why she immediately chased after him without hesitation.

She turned her gaze towards Feng Tianlan.

Feng Tianlan gave her a playful grin.

In an instant, Gu Qingluan recalled something he had said not long ago.

He’d support and back her up.

To be honest, he wasn’t too bad at it.

Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but smile at him, her lips curling slightly. Then, without checking Feng Tianlan’s reaction, she shifted her gaze elsewhere, inadvertently missing the brief spark in his eyes, shining as brightly as stars.

“You stubborn girl, release me now! Have you forgotten what you promised the Old Master? Do you want to go back on your word?” Gu Zhicheng shouted.

“Tsk, you still can’t grasp the situation even now! You’ve been lucky to survive this long. It must be because the Grim Reapers have been slacking off, so they didn’t take you with them.” Gu Qingluan flicked her fingers, and a spirit pill shot toward his mouth. “Because you’re a devoted couple, I’ll show some generosity and allow you to face both the good and bad times together, both of you as mute…”

“Stop!” A sudden shout interrupted her..
