Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1408 - 1407: Princess or Emperor?

Gu Qiaoqiao wasn’t afraid, just worried about hurting the people outside the private room, so she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Go ahead, what’s the matter?"

"Gu Qiaoqiao, does your Gu Family have a ’Hundred Miles of Mountains Map’?" Ouyang Rong asked, holding back her anger.

Hundred Miles of Mountains Map, why is it the Hundred Miles of Mountains Map again?

Gu Qiaoqiao gazed at Ouyang Rong and then slowly nodded.

This is not a secret, and there’s no need to hide it.

"I’m not talking about the one your family displays on the outside; I mean the original, the one in the secret chamber. That’s the one I want," Ouyang Rong said proudly.

"Oh, are you planning to buy it?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked with a frown.

"Buy it, who said I’m planning to spend money on it?" Ouyang Rong seemed surprised and arrogantly said, "Let’s leave it at this today, deliver that Hundred Miles of Mountains Map to me by tomorrow morning."

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao almost wanted to look up to the sky and laugh heartily three times. What’s up with this woman? She doesn’t dress outdated, nor does she talk like an old-timer, yet her thinking is so incomprehensible?

Who does Ouyang Rong think she is?

A princess or an emperor?

"I’m really sorry, but that’s a request we cannot fulfill. The Hundred Miles of Mountains Map is a Gu Family heirloom, not something for sale, let alone for giving away," Gu Qiaoqiao coldly rejected.

"Gu Qiaoqiao, don’t be unaware of what’s good for you," Ouyang Rong scolded, pointing at Gu Qiaoqiao.

"Ouyang Rong, don’t be too arrogant. What era do you think we’re in? To still put on the airs of a Royal Princess, who are you showing off for? Who will give you any regard?" Gu Qiaoqiao hated it when people pointed at her, so she retaliated unreservedly.

With people like her, you can’t be polite at all. If you show her respect, she won’t respect you back and will treat you like an ant.

Ouyang Rong was so furious that her face turned pale. No one had ever treated her like this before. Suddenly, she stretched out her hand, and a sharp beam of light shot towards Gu Qiaoqiao.

However, Gu Qiaoqiao was always on guard. With a casual gesture, an Ice Arrow Talisman shot like a sharp sword at the beam, colliding with it and exploding loudly.

San Qi looked at Gu Qiaoqiao and then at his own Miss, clenching his fist helplessly. This was not his intention; how did a conversation turn into a fight?

Ouyang Rong was stunned, not expecting Gu Qiaoqiao to react so fast.

She said furiously, "Gu Qiaoqiao, don’t ignore a toast only to drink a forfeit."

"I’ve never seen a robber be so righteous. What on earth has happened to the world, why do some people always covet things that aren’t theirs? When they see nice things, they want to claim them; how shameless is that?"

Gu Qiaoqiao mocked unreservedly.

"Gu Qiaoqiao, aren’t you afraid of the consequences of offending me?"

"Ouyang Rong, the consequence of not offending you is that I have to give you what you want, right?"

Without waiting for Ouyang Rong to speak, Gu Qiaoqiao continued with a sharp tone, "Ouyang Rong, I don’t care about your background or identity, but I warn you, this is the land of Huaxia, there are laws here. Don’t think you can stand above others, or that you can easily manipulate other people’s lives. Be careful not to lift a stone only to drop it on your own foot!"

Gu Qiaoqiao’s voice was neither high nor low, but it was powerful and resounding.

"Gu Qiaoqiao, aren’t you scared I might destroy your Gu Family?" Ouyang Rong threatened, furious.

"Ouyang Rong, let me tell you as well, there are too many people coveting the Gu Family, but by now you should know the outcome," Gu Qiaoqiao said forcefully.

"What are you relying on, just those hands? I’ll cut them off and see what you can do without them." Ouyang Rong was nearly hysterical with rage.

No one had ever treated her like this before.

"What are you relying on, your so-called Sect Leader father, or your seemingly inexhaustible Spirit Talismans? Without those, what do you have? Want to chop off my hands, do you have the ability?"

Gu Qiaoqiao spoke rapidly, her sharp gaze fixed on Ouyang Rong. Though this was only their second encounter, she didn’t like this person at all, as she was arrogant to the extreme. Before Ouyang Rong could react, Gu Qiaoqiao warned again, "Ouyang Rong, even people in the Mystic Sect are controlled by the Heavenly Dao Rules. I advise you not to provoke the Gu Family, or you will definitely regret it."

Ouyang Rong, enraged, laughed instead, pointing at Gu Qiaoqiao, "Fine, fine, fine, remember what you said today, and let’s see who ends up regretting it."

Gu Qiaoqiao smiled coldly, unmoved. She glanced at the two people in the room, pushed open the door, and turned to leave the private room.

Since they’ve turned against each other, there’s no need for politeness anymore.

Even the Mystic Sect has its rules, and here, Ouyang Rong cannot act recklessly.

Yet despite this, Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart sank.

She couldn’t help but doubt heaven, why is it? Just when she felt life had become a bit peaceful, it was disrupted again, this time more fiercely than ever.

This Ouyang Rong obviously does whatever it takes, how did the Gu Family become her target?

Hundred Miles of Mountains Map!

A flash of insight struck Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind as she stood at the entrance of Lijing Ho, under the starlit sky. She remembered He Shan, it seemed Old Thief He was also determined to get this ’Hundred Miles of Mountains Map.’ So what secret does this map hold?

Why do so many people covet it?

Gu Qiaoqiao looked at her right hand, focusing on her middle finger, an eerie thought re-emerged. What does the pattern on her middle finger have to do with that mountain?

Gu Qiaoqiao spaced out at the entrance for a while, then got into a car. Brother Li San asked, "Qiaoqiao, are you going home?"

This ’home’ referred to the Qin Family.

Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head, "Not returning to the Qin Family today, go to Gu Garden..."

Brother Li San nodded, stepped on the gas, and turned the steering wheel towards Gu Garden.

Upon reaching Gu Garden, Gu Qiaoqiao had already calmed down. Having experienced a lot, she knew how to handle certain matters. After chatting with her family for a while, Gu Qiaoqiao called Old Patriarch and Xiao Wen to the study and recounted the earlier events in detail.

The Old Patriarch wasn’t very clear about matters of the Mystic Sect, and Xiao Wen, with his father and the Mystic Sect in the Central Plains, had little contact. Nevertheless, they both knew this matter was not trivial.

Xiao Wen asked, "Old Patriarch, what secret does the ’Hundred Miles of Mountains Map’ hold?"

Gu Qingfeng shook his head, his face full of contemplation, "I’ve never heard of any secrets hidden within the ’Hundred Miles of Mountains Map.’"
