Bab 204: The Gu Family’s Methods

Luo Xiao followed the pair of servants that led him towards the main hall. He knew perfectly well that the situation he was about to encounter would be delicate, and the possibilities of being disdained and hated were rather strong.

The earlier meeting with the younger generation of the Gu family outside the city walls made it clear that his arrival was not something that they were looking forward to. However, for now, he had to stay with this identity and face the criticism it brought. This was, after all, the best way to stay alive and not drag Jiang Yao down with him while he still kept increasing his strength.
