The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

She turned her head slightly to look at Gu Jianmen, who had walked up to her. Gu Jianmen was just as his name suggested! He was like a sword, sharp and piercing. His expression and the look in his eyes were telling the story.

Especially those eyes!

"Give you face? How much is your face worth?"

Despite his sharp and outspoken nature, Helian Yun Shen still ignored Gu Jianmen's request to give him face, which made Gu Jianmen frown.

He paused for a few seconds before speaking.

"Meng Sha and I are good friends. Could you please put this matter aside for Meng Sha's sake? There are some things I want to handle personally, and I hope Young Master Helian can grant my wish."

Hearing him speak like that, Helian Yun Shen thought to himself.

'Looks like this guy I have is no ordinary person! This mess with the Gu family might be related to him.'

Thinking of this, he released his grip on Third Master Gu's neck.

Having been choked and suspended in mid-air, Third Master Gu finally landed, breathing in the fresh air. His eyes, however, held fear and a hint of malice as he looked at Helian Yun Shen.

They were ruthless but dared not show it directly.

"Someone, please give Young Master Helian a seat!"

Gu Jianmen gave instructions to the servants of the Gu family, and the servants, upon hearing Gu Jianmen's order, brought chairs and placed them in the hall, specifically in a relatively forward position.

Since they were being so friendly, Helian Yun Shen did not refuse.

He sat down with a slight smile on his face, ready to watch the show that was about to begin.

Meanwhile, on Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng's side...

The two felt awkward because no one paid attention to them while they were just standing there. They thought they were the main characters in this play, but they didn't expect that someone else would steal the spotlight before they even started.

"Since you two are talking about kidnapping a bride, but it's not for yourselves, could you please explain again to me who you're kidnapping the bride for?"

After all, as the groom, I should know this.

Gu Jianmen spoke to the two in a very gentle and easygoing manner, but his sharp and assertive demeanor made it difficult for them to feel any warmth or kindness.

"noob!"

"Okay, son."

Upon hearing Baili Dongjun's words, Xiaobai replied politely and humbly. He then played his whistle, and the glass beast responded to the sound.

They brought Gu Luoli's coffin out of the deep pool and placed it directly in front of the two of them.

Looking at the coffin, Yan Bietian felt a sense of foreboding.

Seeing his precarious situation, Baili Dongjun addressed everyone.

"We're here to steal Gu Luoli's bride."

These words caused an uproar, and the guests began to discuss them amongst themselves. Upon hearing their conversation, Yan Bietian knew that the situation had deviated from his initial expectations.

At the same time, their words were an insult to the Yan family!

For a young lady of the prestigious Yan family to marry a dead person is an insult to the Yan family.

"Such an insult to my Yan family, even if you are the grandson of the Marquis of Zhenxi, I will teach you what it means to be arrogant and ignorant."

After saying that, he ordered his men to attack Baili Dongjun.

"Cough cough!!"

A few light coughs immediately stopped the person who was about to make a move. Turning to look at Helian Yun Shen, who had just coughed, cold sweat broke out on their forehead.

She was terrified that she would be killed by the Phantom Prince.

"Young Master Huanyin, this matter has nothing to do with you. How can I, as the head of the Yan family, tolerate such an insult to the Yan family!"

"If we continue to tolerate this, won't it make the Yan family a laughingstock in the Southwest?"

Yan Bietian, with an air of righteousness, spoke to Helian Yunshen.

Hopefully, Helian Yun Shen won't make a move.

Seeing this, Baili Dongjun and the other two breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Huan Yin Gongzi was there again, otherwise it would have been another tough battle.

“Master Yan, we must not take the life of the grandson of the Marquis of Zhenxi. If this man suffers even the slightest loss, it will put the Yan family directly in the hands of the Marquis of Zhenxi.”

"Doesn't the Yan family head know very well what kind of person the Marquis of Zhenxi is?"

Yuexi, disguised as Huixi Jun's nephew, could not stand idly by. This was the person with the innate martial vein they had been longing for; if he were injured, wouldn't their entire journey have been in vain?

He then stood up and tried to persuade Yan Bietian.

Yan Bietian heard Yaoyue's (Yuexi's) advice and was also wary of the strength of the Zhenxi Marquis's Mansion, as well as Helian Yunshen sitting there.

"Is this how the Yan family's reputation is to be humiliated?"

Although he didn't really want to kill Baili Dongjun, he was still very unwilling to give up.

After speaking, he turned his gaze to Helian Yun Shen. Under Yan Bie Tian's stare, Helian Yun Shen stroked his chin and thought carefully.

"That depends on what the two newlyweds think. If they're willing, there's nothing I can do. Besides, the Yan family mainly feels it's not good for their reputation, so they'll arrange a levirate marriage."

It's acceptable for Young Master Gu Jianmen of Lingyun to marry his sister-in-law.

After all, such things do happen.

"this?"

Hearing Helian Yunshen's words, Yan Bietian and the Gu family hesitated. The custom of levirate marriage did exist, but it was generally practiced among ordinary people.

Their family is very superstitious about levirate marriage.

"I'm willing to take care of my sister-in-law in place of my older brother!"

Gu Jianmen knew very well that Yan Liuli admired his brother, and that given her personality, she would agree to marry his brother without hesitation. So he preemptively agreed.

We need to move on quickly so he can get on with what he's supposed to do.

"Patriarch Yan, you see that Young Master Lingyun doesn't mind. You should listen to Miss Yan's thoughts then!"

May I? "

When he said the last three words, "Can I?", Helian Yun Shen toyed with the folding fan in his hand, his eyes slightly narrowed. His voice was very soft, but Yan Bie Tian could hear the unyielding tone in his words.

"Then let them have their own ideas!"

Although it's not good for the Yan family's reputation, compared to their own plans and ideas, they can just endure it.

Nothing is more important than allowing the Yan family to dominate the Southwest region.

When Yan Liuli uttered the words "I am willing to marry Gu Luoli" without hesitation, it was clear that she acquiesced to Helian Yunshen's proposal.

Upon seeing this, Sikong Changfeng kicked open the lid of the coffin, revealing that Gu Luoli inside had been dressed in a bright red groom's suit.

Gu Jianmen quickened his pace and arrived at the coffin. When Third Master Gu saw Gu Jianmen's actions, his heart tightened.

Helian Yun Shen took in all of his nervous behavior.

'Just as I suspected, this old man is definitely up to something. The show I've been waiting for is finally about to begin; I just don't know how exciting it will be.'

A smile played on his lips as Helian Yun Shen withdrew his gaze. He silently watched Sikong Changfeng and the others, the moment he saw his elder brother's corpse.

A murderous glint flashed in Gu Jianmen's eyes.

She slowly raised her head to look at Master Gu, her voice cold and questioning.

"Third Uncle, Yan Bietian, don't you owe me an explanation?"
