The biggest gossip among the various ethnic groups recently still comes from the Su.

Oh, it's still that Yuan Liang from Su who just made his appearance not long ago.

The other day, they beat the Prince of Beihai half to death, but at least it was his fault, and Su Zhanli was still in charge.

After all, it was later rumored that the Crown Prince of Beihai had deceived Princess Su's feelings.

This claim was later accepted by many people, but there was no evidence to support it.

Moreover, Su Xiaoyuanliang didn't fare well that time either; he was also seriously injured and had to recuperate for a long time.

Beihai and Yousu had a rather unpleasant falling out over this incident. Even though it was their own family member who was more seriously injured, Beihai still had to go to Yousu's house to apologize.

Logically speaking, the Celestial Clan and the North Sea are related by marriage, so they should be on the North Sea's side.

However, the Heavenly Realm's Lord Qingyan made three trips a day to Yousu, and Lord Duheng couldn't stop him.

At first, Su's partner didn't give her a friendly look, but later she was allowed to enter. During that time, the two seemed to have a good relationship.

For some reason, the two of them broke up again this time. Yuan Liang from You Su was stabbed right at You Su's doorstep while carrying his natal spirit sword.

He even stabbed someone in the heart with a sword, aiming to kill them.

Many people witnessed Qingyan Shenjun being taken back to the Heavenly Palace by the little fairy boy.

Large patches of blood flowed from his chest, staining his entire garment red as if it were free.

Lord Qingyan was completely lifeless, as if he had been pulled out of a pool of blood, and was still unconscious.

If it weren't for the quick thinking and swift action of Lord Duheng in feeding the person the celestial clan's treasured elixir, the person would have almost died.

Logically speaking, since Lord Qingyan was so badly injured, he should have sought an explanation from Shang Su, but the Heavenly Clan remained silent.

It was as if nothing had happened.

This unusual attitude makes people wonder if Qing Yan has also done something to offend You Su, which is why they are seeking revenge.

However, Yuan Liang from You Su only recently came out to show his face, and no matter how much the onlookers racked their brains, they couldn't find any trace of their interaction before that banquet.

Like a badger in a melon patch, it jumps around, but you just can't figure out how to eat the melon.

Some even wanted Gu Yao to start a course, titled—"On How I Could Escape Unscathed After Offending Two Powerful Clans: A Few Things I Did."

In any case, Gu Yao escaped unscathed once again, further solidifying his image as a ruthless and fierce person.

Listening to these gossips, Gu Yao simply chuckled, showing no emotion whatsoever.

Looking at Gu Yao's calm expression, the magpie spirit felt nothing but admiration.

He truly deserves to be called a virtuous leader of the Su family.

No wonder he's a ruthless character who's recently emerged.

The magpie spirit silently gave Gu Yao a thumbs up.

However, as someone who is always active in the gossip world, he couldn't understand this matter either, and was very anxious and wanted to ask the person in front of him.

But he didn't dare.

It's not that I'm cowardly, it's just... well, it's just that I'm a little bit following my heart.

After all, this job is easy and well-paid, making it a dream job for many.

He didn't want to upset his employer and have another bird steal his job.

Absolutely not!

But he really wanted to know...

The truth about the melon is right in front of us, yet we can't ask.

It was so uncomfortable.

The magpie spirit felt that birds could never be happy.

Gu Yao stared at the little magpie pacing back and forth on the table, its gaze fixed on him with such fervor.

After several pauses before speaking, Gu Yao knew what he wanted to ask.

He frowned and put down his teacup.

The teapot contained more tea leaves than usual, yet the tea still had no flavor whatsoever.

Gu Yao sighed, not paying much attention, as if he had expected it.

He simply stopped adding tea to his cup.

He turned to look at the little magpie, a smile in his eyes, "Little magpie, what do you want to ask? I'll give you a chance."

The magpie was excited but still cautious. It flew to Gu Yao's shoulder, wanting to confirm again, "Really? Really? Then if I asked a question that displeased Your Highness, Your Highness must not find another bird to replace me."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yao thought of Lin Daiyu's literary works, "Is it just for me, or do all the other girls have it?"

The main problem is that this "other bird" has such a strong, overpowering smell.

Gu Yao raised his hand and gently flicked the magpie spirit's head, making the person—oops, the bird—a little dizzy.

Looking at the magpie spirit's adorable, swaying appearance, Gu Yao smiled with a smug look on his face, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Ask whatever you want now, I won't send you away."

Upon hearing this, the magpie spirit's dizziness and leg pain subsided, and even her heart... cough cough, her heart was still beating.

He leaned close to Gu Yao's ear, constantly alert to the possibility of eavesdroppers, as if he were feeling somewhat guilty.

After all these years of gathering information, this was the first time he had actually stepped in front of the person in question, so he was still quite inexperienced.

Adhering to the principle of not wanting to be taken advantage of, the magpie spirit asked the two questions that she most wanted to ask.

"Your Highness, you beat the Crown Prince of Beihai last time because he deceived the Princess's feelings? And this time you stabbed Lord Qingyan with a sword, what is the reason?"

Gu Yao rested his chin on his hand, leaning against the soft couch, as if deep in thought.

Looking at Gu Yao's expressionless face, the magpie spirit felt uneasy, wondering if there was anything inappropriate about the question she had just asked.

There shouldn't be anything that's really upsetting... right?

Just as the magpie spirit was feeling uneasy, wondering if they should just give up, Gu Yao spoke up.

He shifted his posture, casually fiddling with the vase on the table, his expression indifferent. "Well, how should I put it? In a sense, that bastard Xunyan did get beaten up by me because he deceived my second sister's feelings."

However, what he did most was his collaboration with the Celestial Clan to cause trouble for You Su.

Gu Yao would never say the last sentence.

Hearing Gu Yao's affirmation, the magpie spirit was excited and waited for Gu Yao's answer to the second question.

What brings the most joy to onlookers is seeing the person involved personally expose the truth behind the story.

Isn't this joyful?

Guaranteed authentic first-hand melons.

Gu Yao did not disappoint the magpie spirit's expectations. After a pause, he continued, "As for why I stabbed Qing Yan, it was purely because I disliked him and had a grudge against him. The reason why the Heavenly Clan did not make trouble was simply because they felt guilty."

The magpie spirit's eyes gleamed with gossip, eager to know more.

But he knew that too much of a good thing could be bad, and that this was enough.

Gu Yao was unwilling to say more; he simply didn't want to talk about it.

He naturally wouldn't press the matter further.

As a qualified employee, you need to learn to read your boss's expression and observe his emotions.

Make the best next step.

With Gu Yao's stamp of approval, he could confidently say that the Celestial Clan and the North Sea owed Su a debt when he went out to spread the news.

The magpie, satisfied with its work, saw that Gu Yao had no intention of continuing, so it quickly changed the subject and started telling Gu Yao some trivial gossip about various ethnic groups.

Gu Yao's eyes showed approval; this magpie spirit was truly too clever.

He listened to these trivial matters, and found them somewhat amusing.
