A constant stream of people was coming and go around the tavern, with a great noise and bustle, carriages and horses thronged the gate. Some people were here for the auction, while some were just here to see the fun for an auction of this scale was very rare.

The government had to send a troop to maintain order, “People, let’s make it clear. The admission fee is one hundred taels of silver, the on-lookers please excuse yourselves and make way for them who have paid the admission fee!”

Hearing that, numerous people shook their heads and stepped back reluctantly. As much as they wanted to stay close and watch the auction, they were strapped for cash. One hundred taels of silver was an astronomical figure for plain folks.

Soon there was a clear way by the gate and the people who had paid admission fee strutted to the tavern amid the admiring glances.

Luo Qianqian, Murong Yun, Su Liancheng, Lin Zimo, Feng Qing and Guang Yao went to a private room at the top level. And of course they had paid good price for the best private room in the tavern, one thousand taels of silver for each person!

Luo Qianqian looked out of the window only to find a few familiar faces.

“Murong Yun, come here, the Gus are here!”

Luo Qianqian didn’t know many people from the Gu Village, but she could recognize the two persons downstairs, Gu Lina and her father — the First Elder!

Guang Yao trembled with anger on seeing them, “The Gu people!” with that he pounded on the table, but clearly he had forgotten that Lin Zimo had been treating him and he was able to wield about one third of his Internal Chi, the table shattered into pieces on the floor.

Seeing that, Luo Qianqian recalled how Guang Yao tried his best to avoid seeing the Gu people last time he went to visit her and Murong Yun, she just thought Guang Yao was still adjusting himself to a new place but now she changed her mind.

“Guang Yao, why do you hate them so much?” Luo Qianqian was a bit confused.

‘I hate them too, but I have a solid reason, that Gu Lina tried to seduce Murong Yun!’ thought Luo Qianqian.

Guang Yao stared at the First Elder and clenched his fists, “Sister, it’s them who has killed my family! We have been standing aloof from worldly success, but the Gus hunt us down and tortured us! My parents kicked me out of our home to protect me from being tortured. The Gus are responsible for my condition as well, my wounds and my controlled Internal Chi.”

Guang Yao’s eyes dimmed as he recalled what the Gus had done to him and his family. He and his family would have had led a happy life it it weren’t the Gus. He couldn’t believe the length those scums would go to satisfy their own greed.

Luo Qianqian now felt even more touched by Guang Yao, Guang Yao had visited her and Murong Yun in Gu Village, he controlled himself and suppressed his indignation for her in front of his sworn enemies.

“Guang Yao… …” Luo Qianqian patted Guang Yao’s shoulder gently, “Are you all right?”

Luo Qianqian was also lost in thought, she wondered who Guang Yao was, ‘He must be from a big family too, otherwise the Gus wouldn’t hunt him and his family down.’

But Luo Qianqian didn’t pursue this topic any further because she didn’t want touch Guang Yao’s sore spot. She also had noticed Murong Yun and Su Liancheng exchanged a look subtly, it looked like they were well aware of the ins and outs of the matter.

“Sister, they need to have a taste of their own medicine, they didn’t kill my family directly, but my family all died because of them!” emotions welled up inside Guang Yao.

He had endure humiliation and bore all kinds of disgrace because he couldn’t fight back, but now he refused to lay low as he was getting his Internal Chi back slowly.

“Guang Yao, I understand your pain. The Gus are so greedy and they have hurt your family, and they have paid a price for that, they have suffered a heavy loss as you had seen last time when you visited me in their village. Plus now isn’t the time to revenge yourself, you are not at your peak and we don’t have a thorough plan. Why not wait till we have a plan?”

Luo Qianqian felt so torn, the Gus were Imperial Noble Consort’s maiden family and she saw Guang Yao like a baby brother… …

Guang Yao thought what Luo Qianqian said through, he knew what Luo Qianqian said was right, he wasn’t able to revenge himself yet, it wasn’t wise to confront them yet. He took a look at Luo Qianqian, then he took a look at Murong Yun, he knew he had put Luo Qianqian in an awkward position.

“Sister, don’t worry about me, I won’t act on rash impulse.” Guang Yao looked grim.

Su Liancheng chimed in to lighten up the atmosphere, “Everything is all right, I will ask the busboy to bring a new table.”

Guang Yao kept staring outside of the window, no one knew what he had in mind.

Luo Qianqian sat close to Murong Yun, she watched attentively downstairs as well, soon she had found some more familiar faces.

“Are those the Liangs! Great!” Luo Qianqian sprang to her feet and exclaimed, ‘Here comes my pocketbook!’

Guang Yao was surprised to see Luo Qianqian’s reaction, “Is there enmity between you?”

Luo Qianqian shook her head and checked whether she had brought the passing token that Liang Ao gave her, great, it was in her sleeve.

“Ha, no enmity, but they owe me money.”

“Money? How come they owe you money?” Guang Yao was confused.

Su Liancheng struck three fingers, “Take a guess.”

“Three thousand taels?”

“Nope, Old Mo, it’s your turn, take a guess.”

“Thirty thousand?”

“Nope! Three hundred thousand taels!” Luo Qianqian said proudly.

Lin Zimo spew the tea in his mouth with shock, poor Su Liancheng almost got wet.

“How come?”

Su Liancheng nudged Feng Qing, “You explain.”

Feng Qing told them what happened in Monster Forest.

Guang Yao found that rather cheerful, “It serves them well! Those ungrateful people, they tried to use you as human shield after you saved them! They deserve more severe punishment!”
