Volume 1: The Rebirth of the Owl Demon Chapter 373: Different Ways
"That's natural."
Hearing Gu Qingyang suddenly say this, Luo Hongchen did not show any displeasure. He just smiled, but his smile was more wild.
Of course, from the perspective of a bystander, Luo Hongchen is indeed qualified to laugh like this. Because he is the founder of the glorious Luo family.
Gu Qingyang clearly remembered that Luo Hongchen had created the Tianshui Trade Road in his previous life, which took the lead in running through the entire Central Continent, and then the Great Wasteland.
Since the establishment of Tianshui Trading Road, commerce in the entire wilderness world has begun to become prosperous, and trade between bone cultivators has begun to increase.
Since then, many forces have been able to adapt to the general trend and rise from the gradually prosperous age because they have grasped the opportunity properly.
However, other forces and other bone cultivators, in the wave driven by Luo Hongchen, could only get some petty profits at most.
And Luo Hongchen himself, as well as the Luo family behind him, are the biggest beneficiaries.
Moreover, the wilderness world has indeed become a bit better because of his influence.
Therefore, no matter which life he was in, Gu Qingyang never looked down upon this young man with peerless business talent.
Of course, in this life, Tianshui Business Road may not have been created by Luo Hongchen, or it may have just been created.
However, as long as the history of this life is the same as that of the previous life, then it won't be long before the Luo family rises to the sky and becomes a blockbuster.
"pity--"
The smile on Gu Qingyang's face disappeared. The moment the smile disappeared, he suddenly spoke. But he did not say a few complete sentences.
From beginning to end, the only thing Gu Qingyang said was these two words. And his words made Luo Hongchen stop laughing wantonly?
Originally, Luo Hongchen kept laughing after he said that sentence, because at that moment he thought Gu Qingyang was an extremely smart person.
Based on his own investigation and various information given to him by Luo Shuixian, he knew how extraordinary Gu Qingyang's talent was.
This was also the reason why he treated Gu Qingyang with such courtesy when he first came up. The Luo family was already glorious and wealthy, and they no longer needed anything else.
When it comes to financial resources, he doesn't have to look outside.
But this is the world of bone cultivators, not the world of mortals. Although the saying that money can make the world go round is also applicable in the world of bone cultivators.
However, in the world of bone cultivation, the people who can truly stand at the top are those who have reached the sixteenth level of cultivation from beginning to end.
As the head of the Luo family, he certainly knows the strength of his family. The current Luo family is indeed comparable to half a super cult.
As a family based on business ethics, to be able to achieve such results is considered the ultimate.
But just reaching this point, just making the family strong to this point is not enough.
Because, if he can't make the family go further, then his family will always be a piece of fat in the eyes of others.
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
His Luo family is not a common man, but the value of his Luo family's territory is countless times greater than that of the so-called wall jade.
It is easy to conquer a country, but difficult to defend it.
Luo Hongchen believed that if he waited until one day in the future, when his Luo family could no longer grow, some people would be unable to bear it.
Perhaps the Luo family is like a peach tree in the eyes of some people. When the tree is still in the process of blooming and bearing fruit, no one will touch it.
But once all the peach blossoms have withered, the tree is also full of fruits. I wonder, can those who have been guarding the tree really endure it?
The answer to this question requires no thought.
Luo Hongchen had already guessed that such a scene would definitely occur in the future.
Even when that day comes, the scene will be countless times more terrifying than he expected.
He couldn't accept that kind of thing, so a lot of preparations needed to be made in advance.
If he is thinking about the future of the Luo family, then he should not just focus on developing business. He also needs to find good people and talents for the family.
And Gu Qingyang is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. In his opinion, Gu Qingyang has a good temperament, coupled with such talent.
In addition, now is the moment when Gu Qingyang needs help the most.
If he were Gu Qingyang, he wouldn't know how to refuse the conditions offered by the Luo family.
Let me ask, what is the ultimate ideal of a man’s life?
Ambitious hegemony?
Beauty in your arms?
Supreme cultivation?
…
Based on Gu Qingyang's own conditions, and with the support of his Luo family along the way, he believed that Gu Qingyang would definitely have the possibility to win the Sixteenth Realm.
And if it were true that the Luo family would be able to have the protection of such a powerful person like those super orthodox ones.
So it can be said that the Luo family completed the transformation from a business family to a spiritual force in the blink of an eye.
What's more, now, all he needs is a nod from Gu Qingyang. His biological sister, Luo Shuixian, such a peerless beauty, will become his wife.
He will become the uncle of the Luo family.
All the Luo family's cultivation resources will be poured into him endlessly, and he will become a noble person with a noble status, and he is also expected to become a strong man.
Therefore, he really couldn't think of any other reasons that could support Gu Qingyang's rejection of this marriage that no man could refuse.
Therefore, when Gu Qingyang said that pity, his expression really changed. But he was not angry, but really surprised.
"Brother, stop talking-"
"Qingyang is such a person. Maybe the two of us are just suitable to be friends. Fate, fate, if we want to come together, both of them are indispensable."
"Maybe there really is something wrong between me and him. Brother, why don't we just let this matter go?"
"Darcissus, listen to your brother."
"Brother will make the decision for you."
…
Seeing Gu Qingyang fall into silence, Luo Shuixian's beautiful eyes also turned gloomy. She knew that today's matter would probably not end well.
She has been with Gu Qingyang for a long time, and she knows Gu Qingyang well. She knows that Gu Qingyang is not the kind of person who hesitates.
If Gu Qingyang really wants something, then he will definitely try his best to get it instead of always hesitating.
But now, how could Gu Qingyang have any intention of agreeing to this matter?
Although she had been with Gu Qingyang for less than a year, it was only a relatively long time.
However, can she still not know what Gu Qingyang’s thoughts are?
It was precisely because she had seen through this that her eyes became gloomy. She was really sad and helpless.
Before she met Gu Qingyang, she always thought that the most outstanding man in the world should be someone like her brother.
Deciding on the life and death of others while talking and laughing.
The success or failure of the war is determined by strategizing.
Over the years, many bone cultivating forces have been wiped out, and many bone cultivating wars have suddenly broken out. Behind all of this, there is the shadow of her brother.
Even though her brother was born weak and sick, and his cultivation level was not very high, there were definitely countless people in this wild world who were deeply afraid of her brother.
Those people are like this, not because of other reasons, they are really just because of the intimidation brought by the name Luo Hongchen.
However, Gu Qingyang was different.
She once encountered a killing situation, and she still clearly remembers it, just when she thought the final result of that killing situation would be the same as before.
There was such a person who emerged from her world with an extremely powerful attitude and cleared all obstacles for her with his absolute strength.
It was also from that moment that she, who had originally decided to be obsessed with business, began to have a different interest in the so-called bone repair.
Therefore, she agreed to her brother's request.
She went to Shenlu Academy, and what she didn't expect was that she would meet Gu Qingyang again in Shenlu Academy.
At this point, she began to pay special attention to Gu Qingyang. She really wanted to know more about this young man, because he was special.
Before meeting Gu Qingyang, she had met young geniuses from many forces.
She knew that those people were also very powerful, but no one had ever opened the door to another world for her in such a way as Gu Qingyang.
If anything, her brother is the representative of peerless resourcefulness in her mind.
Then, Gu Qingyang is an incarnation of a person with absolute strength in her mind.
Gu Qingyang made her see another kind of power, which made her have a different kind of interest in another world.
This was the true origin of her relationship with Gu Qingyang, not to mention that after that, Gu Qingyang made her see many different things.
Especially Shenhuang and his party.
In the mysterious realm of the gods, perhaps in the eyes of others, Gu Qingyang is an out-and-out peerless devil.
The so-called evildoers, unforgivable, despicable and shameless...these are the comments those people made about Gu Qingyang.
But in her opinion, Gu Qingyang is a person who keeps his promises, a person who will not care about his own life and death for the life and death of those around him.
In fact, throughout the ages, in the eyes of the Luo family, every human being has a price to match.
And in the mysterious realm of the gods, Gu Qingyang once said something that shocked her the most.
"My life is worthless."
Just this sentence made her full of curiosity about Gu Qingyang's past.
She really wanted to know what kind of person could be so ignorant of his own life and death.
Could it be that this other person's life is life, but his life can't be counted as life? Why!
Although the current Gu Qingyang is only at the fifth level, in her mind, Gu Qingyang's image is really perfect.
Mysterious, powerful, and measured... She couldn't figure out how such a charming man could be casually called a big devil.
However, just when Gu Qingyang said those regretful words, she suddenly became sober.
At that moment, she remembered that night many years ago.
She clearly remembered that that night, the girl named Yelan Yaoge said a lot of words to her that were incomprehensible to her.
However, today, when she thought of that night again, she could somewhat understand what Yelan Yaoge wanted to express.
So, she spoke.
She probably guessed that due to various reasons, she and Gu Qingyang might still be just like she said, but they were just destined to have no connection.
To be honest, she was unwilling, helpless and sad because she really couldn't figure out what was hindering them.
"Brother Luo, I understand what you mean."
"I also understand what Narcissus means."
"But people like me are almost destined to die alone. I have lost too much along the way."
"Don't say you are with me, even if you are following me, you are almost destined to not end well."
"I know that in your impression, as a bone cultivator, generally speaking, the ideal of a bone cultivator is to become a strong person."
"I am the same person."
"But I am not just this person, I have other thoughts in my heart. My enemies are not just the creatures on the ground."
Having said this, Gu Qingyang, who suddenly spoke, fell silent again. At the same time, cyan light patterns began to appear on his body.
In just an instant, these light patterns shone on his body, looking extremely bright and giving people an enchanting sense of beauty.
"You can take a closer look, this is my true face. I am a sinner, a person of great sin appointed by God in your mouth."
"In the mysterious realm of the gods, everyone has obviously been exposed to such inheritance, but why was it that I was the only one who got the inheritance in the end?"
"Is it because of my character?"
"I'm here to tell you the truth. Mind is just one of all factors. The real reason is that I am already guilty of heaven!"
"The sky was meant to kill me. People like me can survive if they are lucky. If they are not lucky, they will be destroyed step by step."
"If Narcissus is really with me, she will not be happy. Can she withstand all kinds of killings unleashed by the sky?"
"She, and your Luo family, can you withstand the wrath of heaven? Accepting me means accepting my sin and leading to destruction."
"When that time comes, your glory will disappear, and everything in the Luo family may turn into dust."
"For me, it's not worth it—"
"Hahahahahahaha——"
…
Gu Qingyang said these words extremely seriously and clearly. Luo Hongchen fell silent.
From this moment on, this man who had created many legends in the business world felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness for the first time.
He could feel the aura of sin emanating from those cyan light patterns, and that feeling of being intolerable to heaven and earth really impressed him deeply.
It was precisely for this reason, combined with the information he had received before, that he was willing to believe that everything Gu Qingyang said was true.
However, this also means that there will be no result between Gu Qingyang and his sister.
Everything was just as Gu Qingyang said, there was no way he would abandon the Luo family.
He has given everything he has for the Luo family. Whether it is marriage or other things, he has given up everything.
Luo Shuixian can probably be regarded as the only person on the chessboard of his life who cannot be regarded as a pawn.
He can give up everything for the Luo family.
But only for his biological sister, he would not do anything to persecute her in the slightest. Because she is his sister and his blood relative.
However, after seeing Gu Qingyang like this, he probably guessed the final outcome of today's matter.
Gu Qingyang and Narcissus will never end.
Luo Hongchen deeply realized that Gu Qingyang was different from the two brothers and sisters. They were completely from two different worlds.
If they, brother and sister, are more like mortals than bone cultivators, then Gu Qingyang is a bone cultivator who is pure to the core.
The two brothers and sisters can give up everything for the Luo family, and Gu Qingyang can also give up everything for his practice!
This is their difference.
He could imagine what he and the Luo family might face in a few years if Luo Shuixian really married Gu Qingyang.
Soon, a scene appeared in his mind. It was the scene of Luo Shuixian dying in Gu Qingyang's arms, which was extremely clear.
Although such a thing has never happened, let alone a fact, he can already think of it because of his understanding of Gu Qingyang.
"I understand, I understand——"
"It's time and destiny."
"But brother Qingyang, even though I, Luo Hongchen, already know all this, I, Luo Hongchen, still have the guts to make an unmerciful request."
"I hope that Brother Qingyang can give me a promise. In the future, when Brother Qingyang has traveled across the wilderness and fulfilled his ideal."
"I hope Brother Qingyang can come to Luo's house again, not just to see me, but just to see my sister."
"In the eyes of others, her life may be extremely luxurious, with endless glory and wealth."
"But her life can actually be seen at a glance. She will also be extremely lonely."
"Even if you are not her man, I hope you can continue to be friends with her."
"People like us may annihilate our emotions. However, the emotional moments in our lives also really exist."
"Please forgive me, I am selfish."
"Please accept my request. If you need my help in any other way in the future, you can also ask it."
"As long as I am alive, the Luo family will always be your ally. As long as Narcissus is alive, she will always be waiting for you."
…
Luo Hongchen was silent for a long time. After a long time, he slowly took out several pills and swallowed them all in one breath.
After taking the medicine, he spoke and expressed his thoughts in a passionate voice. And his words made Gu Qingyang's expression become extremely serious.
