Chapter 659 - Encountering The Gu Family (1/2)
”Where the fuck is that bitch, Min Li?! We have been waiting here for almost a week! She should be here by now!” Gu Tao shouted in an angry voice when he lost his patience.
”Do you think we were fooled by the Min Family?” He then asked his father, who was sitting beside him inside the carriage.
”That's not possible. He wouldn't lie about something like this. It would only damage his family's reputation, and you know how much we value our face. Furthermore, this is Min Li that we're talking about. They wouldn't sacrifice their family's reputation for her. Why do you think they sold her to us in the first place?”
”That makes sense… However, that doesn't change the fact that Min Li isn't here. We came here immediately after leaving the Min Family, so there's no way that we'd missed her.” Gu Tao said.
”That's also not possible. I had spoken to the people here. None of them have seen Min Li, and she's one eye-catching girl.”
”Then how long are we going to wait? We cannot stay here forever, not to mention that wedding that is supposed to be in three days!” Gu Tao sighed out loud.
”There's nothing we can do but wait.”
It was at this moment the Gu Family noticed a group of individuals approaching their direction, and all but one of them were kingdom-toppling beauties.
However, Gu Tao only had one person in his eyes— a young lady with a familiar face!
”Wow, so that is the Stairway to Heaven, huh? It's much grander than I'd anticipated.” Yuan mumbled in awe as he gazed upon the massive staircase that hovered in the air not far in the distance.
There were only a total of 9 steps on this staircase, but it was so massive that it filled the sky and seemed like it was created for giants, and there was a beautiful golden door at the end of the ninth step.
”I have never seen such a big staircase before. It's almost as though it was created for giants.” Chu Liuxiang mumbled in a dazed voice.
”Speaking of giants… Do they exist in the cultivation world?” Yuan asked.
”They do.” Feng Yuxiang nodded.
”However, they only exist in the upper heavens now.”
”Have you seen one before?” Meixiu asked her.
”I have met a few when I was still living up there. They're all incredibly powerful beings with unrivaled strength. They are also born with near-indestructible bodies.”
”I want to meet one now.” Yuan smiled.
”By the way, that's not the real Stairway to Heaven.” Feng Yuxiang suddenly said.
”Then where is the real one?”
”It's inside that golden door,” she said.
”Is that so…”
”Yuan…” Min Li suddenly tucked his robes.
”Hm? What's the matter?”
”Do you see that large carriage in front of us? It's the Gu Family,” she said with a worried frown.
”Gu Family? The family you were supposed to marry into?” Yuan asked for confirmation.
