This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Luo Xiao took Ye Feng and Huo Yu back to his residence, after which he summoned a local servant to bring in warm water so that he could wash up. From his reaction, no one could see what he was thinking, and the servant, who had been instructed to keep an eye on this young master, had no idea of what was going on as well.
The servants that were on call at Luo Xiao’s courtyard all came from Madam Gu’s hands. They were under her control, and although both Patriarch Gu and Gu Tianhu were overly kind and respectful towards Luo Xiao, she did not share this opinion.
However, she was a woman who controlled the back of the house, and she had no interest in entangling with this nephew that had appeared out of nowhere. Although she felt uncomfortable whenever she witnessed how her husband and son almost fawned upon this young man, she still understood that she could not do anything against him without a good reason.
It was also because of this that the servants were informed to be extra observant. If they found anything detrimental towards the Gu family, they would then speak up right away, so that she could cut the roots and throw him out of the family as soon as possible.
These small steps did not cause Luo Xiao any annoyance. He understood that Madam Gu did not like him, but as long as she did not do anything that crossed his bottom line, he would just pretend that she did not exist.
Luo Xiao had matured during the time he had been cultivating. He understood many things that had puzzled him before, and he also realized that there was no need to pay any attention to unimportant people.
Madam Gu did not like him, and many of the Gu family members shared this dislike, but to him, it did not matter. The Gu family belonged to Jiang Yao’s forces and he was merely using their place as a temporary residence and also as a way to gain a fake identity.
In a way, now that he was disliked, it was more believable for others. No one would, logically, be happy when a distant relative came to grab a piece of their share of resources.
It was also because of this that Luo Xiao closed one eye whenever they were showing dislike and annoyance. However, this was only as long as they did not try to push his limits.
“Ye Chao is waiting in the study.”
As Luo Xiao finished washing, Ye Feng walked past him, ready to inform the servants of their next tasks. As they slipped past one another, Ye Feng’s voice sounded right next to Luo Xiao’s ear, giving him a message that no one else could hear.
Although they were not going to care about the dislike some members of the Gu family had towards him, they still had to keep a finger on the pulse and know exactly what was going on in the Gu family at any time. This was also why Ye Chao had left upon returning to the Gu Manor, as he had to visit the various families to understand the current situation and take precautions in case someone wanted to target them.
Luo Xiao did not show any signs of having heard the message, but Ye Feng knew that he had taken note. The young man slowly went to his living quarters where he rested for a short while before moving towards the study.
Because of the late return from their trip outside, many servants were still moving around in the courtyard, so Luo Xiao was being careful in everything he did. This, in itself, was great training for him, as he understood that the world he was about to enter, the upper realms, was not a place where you could be naive or gentle.
Only with brutal strength and a cunning mind would he be able to stand by the side of his lover to face all challenges that would come their way.
Luo Xiao calmly entered his study. He sat down at the desk and began to read a few letters placed on the tabletop. He did not seem to be in a hurry, but slowly began to grind the ink as if he was going to write a letter in return.
Luo Xiao was well aware that Ye Chao was currently present within the room, but since the guard had not shown himself, it meant that someone else was also paying attention to his every move, and thus he kept moving forward calmly as if this was his original purpose.
The letters he was dealing with were not important at all either. They were sent from a few shopkeepers in control of some stores that were running in his name. These shops had been prepared by Jiang Yao before Luo Xiao arrived at the Gu family, with the intention of making him have a few stores that could be used as an excuse and cover for his financial situation and freedom.
Everything had been prepared in advance, and Luo Xiao just had to pretend to be Gu Tianyu until his strength was enough to enter the Higher Realms.
That being said, Luo Xiao had no intention of staying in the Gu family for a long time. The main reason for his current visit was to have his identity known by the Gu family, and to tell the world that he existed. In this way, he would be able to roam the entire Tiandi Continent without having to fear for his true identity being found out.
