Chapter 272: Petty Formation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After giving her instructions, Gu Qingluan flew directly towards the Gu Residence.

Upon reaching the entrance of the Gu Residence, Gu Qingluan was stopped.

The Gu Residence activated its defensive formation.

Seeing her, the servants of the Gu Residence hurried inside to report to Wang Shi.

Wang Shi was so shocked that she accidentally knocked over a teacup. “Who… Who did you say has come?”

“The First Lady! The First Lady is standing outside the main gate right now.”

“She must have found out! She’s here for revenge! What should I do? What should I do?” Wang Shi panicked and paced around.

“Madam, didn’t you have the defensive formation activated? She definitely can’t get in.” Nanny Lin consoled.

“What do you know? Do you think we can prevent her from coming in forever?” Wang Shi glared at her.

Wang Shi handed the ‘knife’ to the Fifth Prince, thinking she would witness a confrontation between them. However, that one prince couldn’t even touch Gu Qingluan, and instead, he was killed by her.

When the servants who were sent to gather information returned with the news, Wang Shi became even more fearful. She immediately ordered the activation of the Gu family’s defensive formation.

The defensive formation was not meant to be activated on regular days, as it consumed a considerable amount of Xuanling Stones. It was only to be used in times of life and death for the family.

Taking advantage of Gu Zhicheng’s seclusion in cultivation, Wang Shi activated the defensive formation.

If the Gu family were still as powerful as before, the defensive formation might have held for a while. But now that the Gu family was so impoverished, there were very few Xuanling Stones and Spiritual Beast Inner Cores left. The formation wouldn’t last long.

Once the Xuanling Stones powering the defensive formation were depleted, no one would be able to stop Gu Qingluan!

Wang Shi’s face turned pale, and she exclaimed in anger, “Is the royal family just going to watch as Gu Qingluan kills a prince without even questioning her?”

She thought that since the royal family had a Saint, they would take action if the Fifth Prince was defeated by Gu Qingluan.

Yet, the royal family didn’t even lift a finger!

“What should we do now?”

Even Nanny Lin’s expression had changed.

Maid Ningxiang spoke, “Madam, Miss shouldn’t dare to do anything reckless. After all, no matter what, you’re her legitimate mother. If she harms you, the world will know about her actions.”

“She even dared to strike her own father, so what wouldn’t she dare to do?”

Ningxiang fell silent.

Ever since the first lady disappeared for a few years and returned, she was truly different from before.

No one could predict what she might do.

Now that she was standing at their doorstep, there was nowhere for them to run.

At this moment, Wang Shi regretted deeply. If she had known, she wouldn’t have provoked Gu Qingluan.

No, she couldn’t just sit here waiting for death.

As she was planning to leave, a figure suddenly flew in.

Wang Shi couldn’t dodge in time and was knocked down to the ground.

“Madam!” Nanny Lin and Ningxiang exclaimed in shock and hurried over to help her.

The one who had collided with Wang Shi was Steward Wang. This caused both of them to exclaim in surprise.

Wang Shi exclaimed in anger, “You…”

Her words came to a halt, her face contorted with fear, as if she had seen a ghost.

“Madam, how have you been lately?”

Gu Qingluan walked in from outside the main gate, dressed in white and exuding an elegant smile. Her jet-black eyes seemed to be adorned with stars, capturing everyone’s attention.

Wang Shi, however, couldn’t control her trembling.

“What… What do you want to do? No, how did you get in?”

Didn’t she activate the defensive formation?

How could Gu Qingluan possibly get in?

“Madam, did you really think a mere small formation could stop me?” Gu Qingluan asked, bewildered.

A mere small formation?

Hearing the description from the other party, Wang Shi nearly spat out blood.

Was that really just a mere small formation? That was the defensive formation arranged by a formation master that the Gu family had hired.. Even a Saint wouldn’t be able to break through it!
