As it was, Dongfang Yu never mentioned about her background after she was married into the Gu family. Just because Gu Tian was the legendary genius at that time; with his protection, old man Gu did not dare to humiliate Dongfang Yu.
When he heard that, the Second Master Gu involuntarily lowered his head. After all, his older brother Gu Tian’s death had something to do with him.
“General, sir.”
At that moment, a voice quickly reached in. It was followed by the Gu family’s slave running in from the outside and breathed heavily, “Master, young master Dongfang has come for a visit.”
Dongfang family?
Old man Gu blanked out for a while but immediately sat upright and excitedly said, “What did you say? The young master of the Dongfang family came for a visit?”
Even though the Dongfang family’s status was not as powerful as the Weapon Refining Sect but they came really close. Now that the Gu family had just offended the Weapon Refining Sect, if they could get the Dongfang family to back them up, even then the Weapon Refining Sect would need to consider their actions.
Furthermore, this relationship between the Dongfang family would benefit him in many ways.
“Hurry! Let him in quickly!”
Old man Gu hurriedly calm himself down when he thought about it and replied in a surprised manner.
Just as his voice died down, a soft chuckled came from the outside. When the crowd lifted their heads and looked towards that direction, all they saw was a flurry of silk clothing entering the room. The man was waving the folded fan in his hand, and his jade-like eminent face hung a warm smile.
“General Gu, I hope you forgive me for my sudden visit.”
Old man Gu swiftly got to his feet. His chrysanthemum-liked wrinkled face was filled with a flattering smile, his behavior was as though he could not wait to be Dongfang Shaoze’s lackey.
“Young master Dongfang, what business do you have to grace us with your wonderful presence?”
“Oh,” Dongfang Shaoze arched his brows slightly as he purposely dragged on his voice, with a surprised tone he said, “You don’t know the purpose of me visiting you, General?”
“Well…”
Old man Gu was a little confused, he looked questioningly at Dongfang Shaoze, “This old man really doesn’t understand why Dongfang Shaoze would visit.”
“You see,” Dongfang Shaoze raised the corner of his lips, opened his folded fan and said, “I myself have been good friends with both Gu Tian and his wife for many years now. It’s just that after many years of closing off for training, I haven’t seen them for quite some time and after coming out from that, I heard that they were dead.”
Dongfang Shaoze shook his head in regret.
His regret was not an act but it came from the heart. No matter whether it was for Gu Tian or his own sister, he only had admiration and respect for them. It was so unfortunate that two geniuses such as those two had fallen just like that…
“Sister Yu and I were sworn as sister and brother that year. I, as a brother, couldn’t see them in their final moments so I was wondering whether General Gu could bring me to my sister’s memorial site?”
If it wasn’t for the hostility of those in the Dongfang family, Dongfang Shaoze would have caused a scene at the Gu’s household and would not have only used his identity as a sworn brother to show up here…

Nonetheless, now that he could finally address her as ‘sister’ in front of the Gu family, that would count as a proof of her identity.
Old man Gu was stunned and hesitantly said, “Even though they’ve passed away, no bodies were found. So…”
“There are no bodies but there must be cenotaphs, could I go and pay them a visit?”
General Gu’s face gradually became unpleasant but he could not give Dongfang Shaoze an answer.
That bitch actually hid the fact that she was sworn as siblings with the young master of the Dongfang family. If he had known about that the Dongfang family had their back, how could the Gu household cripple to this stage?
