"Are you questioning us?"

Long Aotian looked like he was asking for help, and Yu Wenmo asked back in a tough manner.

Their eyes met, both of them looked cold and stern, and they refused to give in to each other.

And after he spoke, Feng Yunsu also stood behind Yu Wenmo, looking at him with the same serious expression.

Facing Long Aotian, they are now united.

Long Aotian soon realized this. His deep gaze swept over the two people and finally landed on Gu Linqiao standing in the corner.

In Gu Linqiao's eyes, he saw full of anger.

That kind of anger was not directed at him, nor was it because of his previous questioning. Instead, it was more like the incompetent rage after being deceived, and he was right on the muzzle of the gun.

"I'm not questioning, I just sounded a little anxious. You should be aware of the family's situation now, so please forgive me."

Long Aotian softened his tone, but this was not forgiven by Gu Linqiao.

Because Gu Linqiao knew that he only temporarily surrendered because he didn't know the truth.

If he and Elder Qiu really reached some kind of agreement, and if the agreement was not good for him, he would definitely take action.

The aristocratic family does need to find opportunities in desperate situations, but it will not let tigers become troubles.

"Master Long Pavilion, you came to question me in a hurry, so I also want to ask you, if I say that there is no bullshit agreement between us and Elder Qiu, do you believe me?"

Gu Linqiao stared at Long Aotian with a burning gaze, so intense that Long Aotian could not lie.

He didn't answer, but silence was the answer.

Gu Linqiao said again, "Master Long Pavilion, it is true that I went to see Elder Qiu for a personal matter, but this has nothing to do with your Long family, it only has to do with Zhao Liquan. When I say this, do you feel at ease?"

"You lied to me!"

Long Aotian said seriously, "You have met Elder Yi!"

"How did you know?"

Yu Wenmo frowned and asked, as soon as he said this, he admitted that what Long Aotian said was true.

Long Aotian said word by word, "Although I don't have superpowers, I know every move of superpower monks, and you can't hide this from me."

Hearing this, Gu Linqiao and others' hearts sank. No wonder Elder Yi wanted to break away from the control of the family.

The control the aristocratic family has over the supernatural monks is really terrifying. It is equivalent to pressing a silent monitor on them to monitor their every move at any time.

Although they are respectfully called elders, they live in the shadow of the family members all the time.

"Although I don't know how you know, the reason we went to see Elder Yi was also because of Zhao Liquan and has nothing to do with the Long family."

Gu Linqiao had no intention of telling the truth. It was not yet clear whether Long Aotian was an enemy or a friend, so some truths could not be told to him.

Moreover, what Elder Yi planned was exactly what Long Aotian didn't want.

Long Aotian could tell from Gu Linqiao's expression that she didn't want to explain too much at the moment, and she would feel bored even if she said more. "If this is the case, then I would like to sincerely remind you that Elder Yi is the culprit who makes the family uneasy. He cannot be trusted."

What he said was conclusive. Gu Linqiao just looked at him and did not react. Feng Yun, who had been silent all this time, said solemnly, "Thank you, Lord Long Pavilion, for reminding us. We will be careful. There are just some things that need to be answered by Elder Yi." , so we must see him.”

Long Aotian looked at him deeply, and then said, "I just remind you not to be deceived by Elder Yi. I have no other intention."

Gu Linqiao didn't believe what he said and asked, "Does Elder Qiu know that you are so guarded against him?"

Long Aotian was asked back. He paused for a moment, and then said, "I'm not guarding him, I'm doing this to save him." A dark color flashed in his eyes when he paused.

Gu Linqiao saw clearly, so he knew he was lying.

But at this time, Long Aotian said again, "The aristocratic families have decided to join forces. You'd better not get close to Elder Yi anymore, because no matter what he promises you, it will only be lies in the end."

He looked serious, so this was not advice but a warning.

"The Helian family cannot tolerate Elder Yi. It will be a matter of time before we break up. You are not strong enough now. It is best not to lie in this muddy water."

Gu Linqiao asked, "Have you... already joined forces with the Helian family?"

"No."

After Long Aotian finished speaking, he turned around and left without saying any more.

The door to the library closed, and Yu Wenmo immediately asked in confusion, "What does he mean?"

Feng Yun said in a solemn voice, "The Helian family is fighting among themselves, and Long Aotian has joined forces with other families to try to take advantage of them. As for whether to deal with Elder Yi or destroy the Helian family, we don't know."

Gu Linqiao agreed with Feng Yunsu's counterargument and said, "The Helian family should also know that they have evil intentions, so they will not join forces with them, let alone deal with Elder Yi easily. They are all stalling for time."

Yu Wenmo looked like he suddenly understood, "This also gave Elder Yi an opportunity to take advantage of, so he told us all the truth."

Hearing this, Feng Yunsu glanced at him but did not ask any further questions.

Gu Linqiao, on the other hand, stared at Yu Wenmo with an unclear expression.

Facing her eyes, Yu Wenmo smiled slightly, looked at her calmly, and signaled her to relax.

Feng Yunsu had a panoramic view of the movements between the two.

Yu Wenmo took the initiative to mention the truth told by Elder Yi, and then Gu Linqiao showed this expression, so this matter involved something that Gu Linqiao didn't want to say.

Feng Yunsu pretended not to see it, and then excused himself to wash up.

As soon as he went upstairs, Yu Wenmo said, "You don't have to be so nervous. Let him know what he should know. If you keep everything in your heart and speculate on the worst consequences, it will be detrimental to your cultivation."

"What we have to do now is to seize the time to practice, otherwise when someone pinches our necks and takes advantage of us, we will have no power to fight back."

Gu Linqiao said in an annoyed tone, "I know everything you said..."

Yu Wenmo didn't wait for her to finish her words, "You all know it, but you are afraid, so you need others to help you make decisions."

"Yu Wenmo!"

Gu Linqiao subconsciously raised his voice, and it was laced with anger.

Yu Wenmo answered with a smile, "Before Long Aotian came, I was just as confused as you, but the moment he came, I figured it out. No matter in the past or in the future, only this moment is the real me. ,Do you understand it?"

Hearing this, Gu Linqiao's eyes became complicated. She subconsciously glanced upstairs. The door behind the bookshelf was closed, but that didn't mean that Feng Yunsu couldn't hear what they just said.

Gu Linqiao only glanced at it, and then lowered her eyes. She whispered, "Actually, you haven't figured it out either. You are just forcing me to make a decision."

Yu Wenmo said nothing.

Gu Linqiao took a deep breath, then walked upstairs.

"Okay, then I will do as you wish!"

Being timid is indeed not her current character. What Yu Wenmo said just now is right. She is the real her now, and she cannot tolerate being so indecisive.
