Return of the King, Dominating the City

His appearance immediately quieted the square.

Although he was naturally calm, everyone who looked at him had expressions full of awe.

The calm voice that had just called Gu Zi over was from Gu Hong.

"Grandfather."

Gu Zi exclaimed excitedly and ran over to Gu Hong, her face full of smiles, "Grandfather, I haven’t seen you for so long. I missed you so much. Did you miss me?"

Gu Hong didn’t reply, just smiled slightly, his aged face showing a look of affection.

Then he gave Gu Dou a look, and Gu Dou crouched down to unlock the iron chains on Gu Zi’s feet with a key.

"Gu Zi, you’ve had enough fun this time."

Gu Dou said grumpily.

Gu Zi stuck out her tongue and approached, wrapping her father’s arm, and joked, "Dad, without me taking you, did you lose terribly in LOL these days?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Dou glanced at Gu Hong, looking embarrassed, quickly shook his head, and said, "What LOL? I don’t know."

Clearly, Gu Dou also played LOL but didn’t dare let Gu Hong know.

Seeing this, Song Yun laughed, this family was quite interesting.

"Come over, grandfather, dad, let me introduce you to my friend."

Gu Zi pulled Gu Hong and Gu Dou, intending to walk towards Song Yun.

Gu Hong held her shoulder and smiled, "We can talk about these things later. Grandfather hasn’t seen you for such a long time and wants to chat with you, let’s go."

After saying this, Gu Hong, without further ado, pulled Gu Zi forward.

The group from Gu Village, about twenty people, quickly followed.

Gu Village’s status was special; they didn’t need to wait in the square, as the high-level officials of the Changshan Sect personally escorted them to a separate courtyard.

Moreover, the Changshan Sect Leader would also come over and chat with Gu Hong later.

As she walked forward, Gu Zi glanced back at Song Yun, winked, and mouthed: "I’ll come find you later."

Song Yun nodded and suddenly noticed Gu Dou also staring at him.

Gu Dou’s gaze was somewhat unfriendly, snorted angrily, as if Song Yun had eloped with his daughter, full of anger.

Song Yun felt innocent; I was tricked by your daughter, you think I wanted to take her away?

But what Song Yun didn’t know was that Gu Dou was upset because after Song Yun took Gu Zi away, he kept losing in LOL, dropping from Diamond to Silver.

Song Yun looked away, only to meet the gaze of a high-level official from the Changshan Sect leading Gu Village. The person was observing Song Yun, as if evaluating a returning junior.

As Song Yun looked over, the person smiled and nodded at him, very friendly.

I don’t even know you, what are you smiling about?

Song Yun felt puzzled but still smiled back and nodded in return.

After Gu Village left, the originally silent square returned to its bustling state.

"Haha, that guy was feeling proud just now, but it seems Elder Gu Dou doesn’t like him; he can forget about winning Miss Gu Zi’s heart."

"Elder Gu Dou has a fiery temper; if he provokes him, he’s in for a beating."

"Hehe, looks like we might have another chance."

"I’d love to see that guy get beaten up; he’ll probably beg Elder Gu Dou for forgiveness."

Those jealous of Song Yun looked at him with schadenfreude.

However, Song Yun ignored them; at this moment, he was pondering why the high-level official from the Changshan Sect would greet him.

Even though the person hadn’t revealed their aura, making it impossible to discern their level.

But being able to lead the people from Gu Village meant at least an SS-level peak, perhaps even SSS-level.

This person, when did Song Yun get acquainted with them?

"Really strange, did they see me somewhere before?"

Song Yun shook his head, not pondering further.

Just then, the noise in the square suddenly quieted, and everyone’s gaze turned towards the east.

There, a girl in a red tracksuit was quickly walking towards the center.

She had skin fairer than snow, red lips and white teeth, a refined nose, and elegant eyebrows, truly a super beauty.

Her face bore a smile as if she’d seen an old friend.

"It’s Dongfang Yun!"

"Gu Zi just left, and now Dongfang Yun arrives; they are the two most beautiful women in the Ancient Martial World. Just seeing them today makes me content."

"What’s she here for? With her status, she shouldn’t be here to guide us, right?"

"Hurry, choose me, arrange my accommodations."

At this moment, the young men present hoped Dongfang Yun was here to guide them.

The women present showed envious expressions.

As for being jealous of Dongfang Yun, they couldn’t compare.

Then, an unexpected scene unfolded; Dongfang Yun actually walked up to the man who had been with Gu Zi.

The two exchanged smiles, as if sharing a romantic exchange.

Instantly, all the men glared at Song Yun; if earlier it was jealousy, now it was anger; Song Yun immediately became the target of everyone’s resentment.

Why were both beauties drawn to Song Yun?

"Long time no see, you’re getting more and more beautiful."

Upon seeing Dongfang Yun, Song Yun immediately praised her.

Dongfang Yun smiled softly, her face slightly red, then sternly said, "You’re still so unserious. By the way, I’ve signed you up for the competition; don’t embarrass us."

"Don’t worry, I won’t lose too embarrassingly."

Song Yun chuckled, signaled to Dongfang Yun, and said, "Come over here, I have something for you."

"What is it?"

Dongfang Yun looked puzzled, hesitated a bit, and followed Song Yun to the corner.

They reached a corner of the building, looking like a couple avoiding the crowd.
