"Gu girl, this is his retribution. Let it be as you have suggested."
Even though he did not like Xia Qi and had always wanted to punish him; when that moment arrived he felt a pinch in his heart. But when he thought of everything Xia Qi had done, he hardened his resolve.
As his father, he had been ready to forgive Xia Qi regardless of what he had done as long as he was willing to change.
But there was one thing that he simply could not forgive — the slaughter of one's own kin!
Especially since he was the cause behind the disappearance of his precious grandchild.
So, no matter what Gu Ruoyun had planned to do to him, he would have no objections...
"Good. Honorable Poison Master, I will need your help in this. Next, I'll let him go in and accompany Lingxiao, seeing as he's been wanting to obtain him so much. So let's give him this opportunity."
Gu Ruoyun looked at Xia Qi's pale white face and spoke steadily.
"Little girl, just tell me what to do when the time comes."
Hi guys, I've realized that "secret chamber" sounds way cooler than "secret room" (which was used in previous chapters), so I'll be using that from now on. We'll be changing any mention of "secret room" in previous chapters soon!
Side note: I can't help but pity Xia Qi. I mean, at the end of the day, all he really wanted was his father's love. At least, that's how I see it. :,(
