Chapter 931: Why Are You Guys So Worried When I’m Just Going There to Play?

The mention of the formula prompted Gu Si to ask with a sly smile, “You know the formula too. Why don’t you just share it with my sister?”

Gu Xian gave Gu Si a patient and kind look. “If I do that, I won’t live much longer. I’d rather be able to spend time with my niece and nephew.”

The power balance on Jijing Island was only maintained through the Head Elder and Huo Zhi’s painstaking efforts. Although the Head Elder thought highly of Leng Xuan and put her in an important position because she was the most outstanding member of Jijing Island’s younger generation, he needed to keep Gu Xian alive for backup. The formula, thus, became Gu Xian’s bargaining chip and trump card.

Gu Si had already expected this answer. Putting one leg across his knee, he laughed. “So what?”

Gu Xian returned his attention to Gu Mang and spoke sincerely as though he were genuinely concerned about her safety. “The Elders’ Association has increased the assessment’s difficulty. Be careful. You’ll only have a say if you manage to take over Base 102, Gu Mang.”

Gu Si narrowed his eyes.

…

Gu Xian left not long after that.

That afternoon, Gu Mang received a call from the Elders’ Association saying that she could only take one person into Base 102 with her and that they would be scanned for weapons before entering. The ban on carrying weapons was to prevent her from destroying Base 102 like back then.

Jiangsui was the most highly skilled person among Gu Mang’s trusted aides, so it made sense that she would take him to Base 102 with her. However, just when she was about to head upstairs after sorting things out, Bai Sui called her.

“Young Lady.” Bai Sui went up to her and bowed his head slightly as she stopped and looked over. “I’m better at fighting than Jiangsui.”

Gu Mang lifted her eyebrows slightly. “So?”

“I’d like to enter Base 102 with you.” Bai Sui’s face was tense as he spoke. “If you don’t believe me, I can arrange a duel with Jiangsui right now.”

When Gu Mang did not give him a reply, Jiangsui laughed. “Do you think it’s possible that Gu Mang would choose to take a newbie like you over me?”

Bai Sui looked up and met Gu Mang’s eyes squarely. “I’ll go to Base 102 with you, Young Lady.”

Jiangsui let out a sigh as he walked over and slung an arm around Bai Sui’s shoulders. “Wake up. Gu Mang won’t—”

“Sure,” said Gu Mang all of a sudden.

Jiangsui stared at Gu Mang in disbelief. “Gu Mang?”

What the hell?!?Even Gu Si and Yu Mufeng were taken aback by her decision.

Gu Mang then sidestepped Bai Sui and headed upstairs, leaving behind a group of people staring dumbly at her.

…

Huo Zhi dropped by the villa at dinnertime.

“Gu Xian came to see you?” Huo Zhi looked at Gu Mang, who was slowly eating her meal at the head of the table. When she did not even bat an eyelid at his question, he asked, “Did he tell you that the Head Elder has upped the assessment’s difficulty?”

Gu Mang pretended not to hear him as she picked up some green veggies for herself.

When Huo Zhi noticed that she was holding the chopsticks with her left hand, he said, “It’s not too late to withdraw now. Just give up on the assessment and I’ll help you settle the rest.”

“Why are you guys so worried when I’m just going there to play?” Gu Mang let out a careless laugh as she propped her chin up with her hand.

Huo Zhi frowned. “Don’t put up a front. The fact that you’re eating with your left hand shows that your right hand hasn’t healed.”

When he found out that the Head Elder had tampered with the assessment’s difficulty, he had wanted to go look for the Head Elder straight away, but he received a call from Old Master Gu warning him not to interfere.

The help he could give Gu Mang was limited, so he thought it was best if she made the decision to give up. It might be a cowardly decision, but it could at least guarantee her her life.. It was better than being a lab rat for the rest of her life.
