Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

After sneering for a while, Nangong Jin regained his normal expression and said to his men, "Let everyone come back and have a good rest."

"Young Prince, we and others are willing to be punished." The subordinate was so scared that he knelt down and said.

Nangong Jin waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. With his ability, if you can really keep an eye on him, I would find it strange. It would be normal for him to run away."

"This……"

"Okay, go down!" Nangong Jin didn't want to say anything more, just waved his hand coldly and gave the order.

The subordinate immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him quickly, and left.

After he left, Nangong Jin asked the two maids who had helped him dress up to leave, then he stood up and went to the study.

When Nangong Jin arrived at the study, Nangong Song was sitting behind the desk drinking morning tea. Seeing his son coming, he smiled and said, "Gu Chan ran away, right?"

"It seems that you have expected it, Dad." Nangong Song said as he sat opposite him.

Nangong Jin laughed, "Let's go have breakfast! After breakfast, we can lead our troops to the Seven Stars Gate and search it thoroughly. We just can't find a suitable reason to search the Seven Stars Gate, and now is the perfect time."

"Dad, how could you have expected that she would go to the Seven Stars Gate after escaping?" Nangong Jin asked curiously.

Last night, Nangong Song said that if Gu Chan wanted to escape, she would definitely escape to the Seven Star Gate first, so all they had to do today was wait for the opportunity.

On the contrary, if Gu Chan had not run away, she would have been able to marry him.

Anyway, no matter whether Gu Chan escapes or not, the result will be good for both of them, father and son.

This shows how foolproof their chess game is.

Nangong Song said indifferently, "Gu Chan's godfather is Shen Sanfeng, the former richest man in the border area, and Shen Sanfeng's eldest grandson and eldest granddaughter are now learning skills at the Seven Stars Gate. Logically, these two should call Gu Chan "Second Uncle", so if Gu Chan wants to escape, he will definitely flee to the Seven Stars Gate."

"It seems that your information, Dad, is indeed much more complete than mine." Nangong Jin said with a smile.

"Boy, you are still young and have a lot to learn. As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Now we have to capture Gu Chan and take over the Seven Stars Gate. We have to prepare everything. I can only say that Gu Chan's sudden arrival has created a breakthrough for us to take over the Seven Stars Gate." Nangong Song said with a gloomy face.

After saying that, he slapped the desk with such force that it cracked on the spot.

Nangong Jin's face changed slightly, and it was not until then that he completely understood that his father had made up his mind this time. He must seize this opportunity to completely resolve the Seven Stars Sect!

On the other side, at the foot of Qixing Mountain, west of Nancheng.

Gu Chan, who had been escaping all night, didn't know at this moment that she had become a spear for the Nanxian King and his son to deal with the Qixing Gate. After leading everyone to escape to the foot of the mountain, she waved her hand and said, "The people from the Xianwang Mansion didn't catch up with us. Let's take a rest first, eat something to restore our strength, and then we will slowly climb the mountain to the Qixing Gate."

"Yes, boss." Everyone said in unison.

Then everyone found a place to sit down, ate their dry food and drank water.

Half an hour later, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, and then they climbed the mountain with Gu Chan, heading towards the Seven Star Gate on the top of the mountain.

It was almost noon when Gu Chan and others slowly came to the huge sect gate on the top of the mountain.

Gu Chan stopped and looked up, and found that the Seven Stars Sect was indeed an extremely powerful sect in South City. Not only was it built on the top of a mountain, it was also as large as half a football field. From the outside, it looked like a large Taoist temple, but it was indeed much more magnificent than any Taoist temple.

Just look at the signboard above the sect's main gate. The three large characters "Seven Star Gate" are all plated in gold, which shows how wealthy this sect is.

When the disciple guarding the gate saw that Gu Chan had come with all his men, he quickly ran into the sect to report.

After a while, Bai Zhuo went out to greet them in person with a smile on his face.

When the two sides met, Bai Zhuo looked at Gu Chan and the others and said jokingly, "You've been running all night! Are you tired now?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? We didn't sleep last night, and we could only climb up the mountain on foot. The carriage couldn't come up. It's already noon. Do you think we are tired?" Gu Chan said unhappily.

"Hahaha……"

Bai Zhuo couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Then, smiling, he led Gu Chan and the others into the main hall of the sect's outer courtyard, and instructed the sect's disciples to bring them fragrant tea and delicious dishes as a treat.

After Gu Chan and the others had eaten and drunk their fill, the leader of the Seven Star Sect, Qi Xing Ba, slowly walked in from outside the hall.

Gu Chan looked up and found that Qi Xingba was actually a bald man. He was tall, fat, and had big ears. He looked so funny that she almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Qi Xingba glared at her coldly and immediately walked to the first seat and sat down.

Bai Zhuo said quickly, "Master, this is the shopkeeper Gu Chan who came from Zhongyuan City. These are his men. They escaped here overnight."

"I heard that the young prince wants to marry you today. Are you sick too and have the same special hobbies as him?" Qixingba asked curiously.

Gu Chan curled her lips helplessly and could only explain the details again.

But unlike Bai Zhuo's reaction last night, Qi Xingba's face suddenly turned gloomy after listening to Gu Chan's explanation. He touched his chin and said, "No, this father and son are always smart and never make mistakes. They definitely wouldn't make such a big joke just because of a fairy leading the way. I think there must be some conspiracy behind this."

"Conspiracy? What conspiracy?" Gu Chan was confused.

To be honest, from yesterday till now, she has never thought about it in this regard.

And to put it bluntly, this was her first time in Nancheng and she had just met Nangong Jin yesterday. It would be impossible for King Nanxian and the young prince to have any conspiracy against her!

So at this moment, Gu Chan was completely dumbfounded and had no idea what was going on.

But just when she was confused, a disciple of the Seven Star Sect ran in from outside the hall and said in a panic, "Master, something terrible has happened."

"Why are you so panicked?" Qixingba said coldly.

"King Nanxian and the young prince have led 5,000 soldiers and horses to the foot of Qixing Mountain and blocked all the roads leading up the mountain. Now they have led their troops up the mountain and are heading towards our sect." The disciple said anxiously.

Qi Xingba was startled, and immediately stood up and shouted angrily, "Quick, gather all the disciples to protect the mountain gate, and don't let them break into the sect."

"Yes, Master." The disciple responded and left hurriedly.

Soon, hundreds of disciples of the Seven Stars Sect, led by Bai Zhuo, were guarding the sect's gate.

At this time in the hall, Gu Chan and others were completely confused and had no idea what was going on.
