Chapter 365: Mo Yang and Gang 4

Qi Qingyao entered the side hall and sat down. After waiting for no longer than half an hour, Gu Shanshan arrived, followed by Xiao Wuji and Gu Cheng behind her.
Qi Qingyao stepped forward and got straight to the point. “Shanshan, I need your help with something.”
Gu Shanshan was very happy to see Qi Qingyao. “What happened at your house the other day scared me to death. My brother said you were taken away by the State Preceptor! I’ve been so worried over the past few days. I didn’t expect you to come here, but if there’s anything you need, just let me know. I consider you a friend of mine, so I’ll definitely help.”
The chubby girl with her small round face patted her chest with a proud expression that said ‘I’m so great’.
Qi Qingyao said, “The grand master from Eastern Ling was here, right? They took my daughter away.”
“Ah!!”
Gu Shanshan’s jaw almost dropped to the floor. As soon as she turned her head, she met Gu Cheng’s gaze and shouted, “Brother!!!”
Gu Cheng, “???”
Gu Shanshan said, “A grand master showed up and took Erniuniu away from Yaoyao’s family! Don’t you two know Uncle Pang? Contact him! He should be the one who came to Qingzhou City this time! Ask him to return Erniu.”
Gu Cheng asked with a calm expression, “Is it Pang Juan who came?”
“I don’t know.” Xiao Wuji shook his head.
Gu Cheng looked at Qi Qingyao, who looked anxious, and then at Gu Shanshan, who looked like she was going to cry in front of him if he dared not help. Gu Cheng said, “Even if I knew it was him, we have no way to speak to him. There is no method of contacting him!”
Gu Shanshan’s face was full of disdain. She said, “But I can’t sit by and just watch my goddaughter die in the hands of Pang Juan.”
Qi Qingyao, “???”
Since when was she your goddaughter?
Never mind.
She would not ask that question right now.
Gu Cheng consoled his sister and said, “Don’t worry. At any rate, a grand master is still a grand master, so he’ll have to take his reputation into account. Even if he came up with the idea of catching a little girl as bait as a last resort, she would only be bait. He would never hurt her.”
Qi Qingyao asked seriously, “Can you guarantee me that?”
Gu Cheng sighed and said, “Why don’t you think about it? We’re talking about a grand master, not some third-rate street killer. If he dared to kill a little girl today for no good reason, would he have any dignity left once the news is spread all over the continent tomorrow? He can forget about having rotten eggs thrown at him when he goes out, as he’ll be so despised he’ll become worthless.”
It sounded very reasonable. “But because this matter is about finding another grand master, he’ll be seen as an enemy! Who knows if your grand master will go crazy?” Qi Qingyao said.
Gu Cheng said, “Rest assured, a grand master can become a grand master not just because of their strength, but also because of their sense of honor.”
Xiao Wuji nodded in agreement with Gu Cheng’s words.
The words may have seemed like nothing on the surface, but they calmed Qi Qingyao’s anxious heart.
It turned out that a grand master also had to be someone who was particular about honor.
Qi Qingyao let out a huge sigh of relief.
She then turned around and walked out.
Gu Shanshan hurriedly asked, “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to the koi temple again,” Qi Qingyao said.
Gu Shanshan muttered, “Is it useful to pray at this point?”
Qi Qingyao looked back with a bright smile. “It’s useful in a place like Qingzhou City.”
Gu Shanshan said, “Then I’ll go with you.”
“I’ll go with you guys.” Gu Cheng was worried about his silly little sister hanging around Qi Qingyao, who was currently as anxious as a headless fly.
“She’s a target now, so I’ll go as well.” Xiao Wuji was a little curious about whether it was Southern Ming’s grand master who had taken Erniu away, or… Eastern Ling’s.
He was a little excited watching things unfold.
