Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl - Chapter 386 - Chapter 386: Chapter 386: The Pinnacle of Acting

Chapter 386: Chapter 386: The Pinnacle of Acting
Of course, Jiang Xiaobai had no idea what Gu Ning’s real strength was.

He just wanted to bluff for the sake of it.

After all, if Gu Ning was truly a master of the Tribulation Period, no one knew his specific realm, at least no one knew now.

But his bluff was convincing enough!

Considering the current situation, everyone firmly believed that Jiang Xiaobai was part of a mysterious power. Based on this, everything he said seemed believable.

Especially since Gu Ning’s strength was indeed a mystery.

So, when Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, Gu Leng was immediately sober. He subconsciously looked at Gu Ning, but his reasoning told him not to!

Despite being excited, Gu Leng managed to control himself. He knew he needed to keep calm.

To win Jiang Xiaobai’s favor, he had to provide a different kind of experience.

From Gu Leng’s point of view, the disciples of such terrifying powers like Jiang Xiaobai were often surrounded by people who flatter and bootlick.

To change Jiang Xiaobai’s view, Gu Leng had to keep his cool.

“If that’s the case, then thank you, brother!”

“Come, let’s drink another round!”

Both men drained their glasses. Jiang Xiaobai put his glass back on the table with a thud and wiped his mouth.

He seemed to be drunk, but his mind was as clear as a mirror.

“Well played, Gu Leng, trying to play hard to get with me, huh?”

“Too bad, if I was that foolish, your Gu family would have killed me long ago.”

Jiang Xiaobai sneered inwardly.

Anyway, he was just acting. His words were all lies. Why should he worry?

Soon after, it was Jiang Xiaobai’s turn to boast.

For a moment, all the people were dumbfounded by his tall tales, Gu Ning, who had been silent all along, also pulled up the corner of her mouth slightly.

Finally, she couldn’t help but smack Jiang Xiaobai on the back of his head.

“That’s enough, you need to stop saying nonsense when you’re drunk,” Gu Ning said displeasingly. However, this reaction made the others feel that Gu Ning was warning Jiang Xiaobai.

This only reinforced their belief that the Void Prince was someone with a powerful background.

“Um, I understand, master.”

With his face flushed red, Jiang Xiaobai, clasping his head, looked wronged.

“Ahem, Brother Bai, you have indeed drunk a bit too much today. Perhaps you should listen to your master and rest first.”

“Later tonight, if you wish to leave Qing Luan City, just let me know where you want to go. My Gu family has a super teleportation array in the auction house. It can transport you anywhere in the Northern State!”

Gu Leng advised Jiang Xiaobai with a dry voice.

Jiang Xiaobai nodded: “Okay, don’t worry, brother. I’ll keep your contact token. You can contact me directly in the future.”

With that, he stood up and staggered back to his room. Gu Ning followed, remaining expressionless and not even granting the others a single glance.

Once the two had left, the others in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Their hearts had been pounding earlier due to Jiang Xiaobai’s words.

They were shocked by his threats to kidnap the patriarch of the Gu family if Gu Leng didn’t become the Saint Son.

Or his blunt insults directed at the Gu family.

The amount of hostility he displayed towards GuBei seemed quite massive. An offhand comment from Gu Leng was enough to make Jiang Xiaobai declare war on GuBei.

If it hadn’t been for someone stopping him, he would’ve even knelt before Gu Ning and begged her to kill GuBei remotely, etc.

After hearing such horrifying words, they all had goosebumps and were extremely terrified.

However, it also confirmed that Jiang Xiaobai indeed had a huge background.

Even though he had offered to help Gu Leng before, Gu Leng had still declined.

After witnessing Jiang Xiaobai’s capability, Gu Leng had a big scheme in mind. Becoming the Saint Son of the Gu family seemed insignificant; he aspired to reach greater heights!

The Saint Son of the Gu Family?

That’s nothing!

“Congratulations, Young Master Gu Leng, to have won the favor of such an influential figure like Bai. We are really envious,” Qiu Zixuan was the first to regain her composure, followed by flattering remarks from Liang Cheng and the others.

Su Lan approached Gu Leng seductively with a fetching smile, presenting herself as cute and dependent.

“Gu Leng, your future is looking up. There’s no need to worry about GuBei anymore~”

“When the time comes, Brother Gu Leng, don’t forget about me.”

Her alluring voice made everyone’s bones tremble.

While everyone was disgusted by Su Lan’s behavior, Gu Leng didn’t seem to mind.

“Well done, thank you all. But everything is still uncertain. Let’s not spread this.”

Gu Leng was warning everyone not to blabber about it.

Everyone nodded and promised to keep their mouths shut.

Even though the important guest, Jiang Xiaobai, had left, the feast became even more lively.

Gu Leng ordered a few more bottles of wine, deciding to drink till he dropped!

On the other hand, as soon as Jiang Xiaobai and Gu Ning entered a room, he became completely sober.

His Pill Refining skill was not for show. He could easily dissolve the influence of the alcohol by taking a pill.

Just as he was ready to laugh heartily, his brows furrowed abruptly, causing him to glower at the door on the left.

Gu Ning also looked over with her eyes narrowed.

The Blood Warrior, who was originally standing there, had shifted its position! Now, it was beside the window, still motionless. This change in position didn’t suggest someone had sneaked in, did it?

Anyone who participated in the auction would know that Jiang Xiaobai belonged to a top-level power and had a master of the Tribulation Period by his side. Anyone who dared to steal from him was courting death!

Moreover, there was no sign of anyone entering the room. It was clear that the Blood Warrior had moved on its own.

“I knew it. The Gu family couldn’t possibly be so generous as to part with such a powerful weapon.”

Jiang Xiaobai sneered inwardly, realizing he could not stay in Qing Luan City any longer.

Are you kidding? Although the Gu family might not find out for a while, the Blood Warrior beside him was like a time bomb.

It could explode at any moment. If something did happen, Jiang Xiaobai would be in great danger.

With the Gu family’s stronghold around, trying to study the Blood Warrior could lead to trouble.

“It’s time to go. Otherwise, master, if you don’t help me out, I could end up killed by this Blood Warrior.”

Jiang Xiaobai casually took the puppy from Gu Ning’s arms, putting it on his shoulder. Looking at the confused expression in the puppy’s half-closed eyes, Gu Ning asked indifferently, “What’s your intention with this Blood Warrior?”

“You want to study how the Gu family cultivates these Blood Warriors?”
