The relationship between Gu Shenwei and Shangguan Yushi became very subtle. As it appeared, one of them was a master, while another was a slave; one stood high, the other kept a low profile. But when no one was paying attention, they looked at each other with deep hatred.
They did not fight publicly anymore, as their battle was now fought through the Ninth Young Master, Shangguan Ru. After all, they had the same purpose: flattering Supreme King's favorite girl.
Gu Shenwen became the most welcomed sparring boy again. Every morning he followed the twins, playing everywhere and using every chance he could speak to try to imbue the idea to Shangguan Ru that one had to be a killer first so that she could learn the best Kung Fu of Gloden Roc Fort.
The idea was just what Shangguan Ru thought. She was only twelve after the festival, not qualified to take part in the family issues, so she was curious about the killer as well as others.
