Bab 72: Chapter 72: Gilding the Lily

"Patriarch, the messenger from the Purgatory Sect likely came to deliver a final ultimatum."

Gu Chaoyang clasped his hands and said, "Whatever decision you make, Patriarch, our Gu family is ready to leave Red Wind City at any time, willing to advance or retreat together with you."

"News from the family head?"

Gu Jinlai looked at him.

Gu Chaoyang nodded solemnly.

"I understand."

Gu Jinlai uttered.

Compared to the dead silence when he first arrived in Lingxiao City, the city was now regaining some vitality.

On the streets, one could see the bustling flow of pedestrians and merchants.

Inns and stores had reopened, welcoming and sending off customers.
