Immortality Through Array Formations-Chapter 1462 - 796: Hundred Flowers

Gu Changhuai immediately looked at Mo Hua with disdain and said unhappily, "Weren’t you going to leave? Why aren’t you leaving now?"

"I’m tired from walking, need to rest for a while." Mo Hua looked innocent.

"Go rest somewhere else." Gu Changhuai frowned.

"I can’t walk anymore..."

Mo Hua cast his clear, spirited gaze towards Elder Gu Hong nearby.

Elder Gu Hong’s heart softened instantly and she reproached Gu Changhuai, saying:

"This child is just resting for a moment, what’s it to you? You’re rushing him away for this? Such a small-minded, bad-tempered person—no wonder you’re this old and still can’t find a Dao companion."

After reprimanding him, Elder Gu Hong smiled at Mo Hua and said:

"Don’t mind your Uncle Gu, that’s just how he is. Stay here as you wish, rest wherever you like, I dare anyone to chase you away!"

Mo Hua grinned, "Thank you, Elder Gu Hong."

Gu Changhuai couldn’t stand it anymore and stood up, saying, "Fine, then I’ll leave."

But just as he got up, Elder Gu Hong pressed him down with a palm and said, "Where are you running off to? I haven’t finished talking yet."

Gu Changhuai couldn’t move.

Mo Hua watched with a schadenfreude expression.

Elder Gu Hong said, "I used to hurry you, and you always said you were busy with Daoist Court. I didn’t want to nag too much, but now I’ve heard from your Court Leader over there..."

Gu Changhuai frowned, "Aunt, you know our Court Leader?"

"Of course," Elder Gu Hong said, "I introduced the Dao companion for his youngest son; after it worked out, he personally came to thank me. How could I not know him?"

Gu Changhuai was at a loss for words.

"Don’t interrupt," Elder Gu Hong continued, "where was I?"

Mo Hua quietly reminded, "The Court Leader said..."

Elder Gu Hong remembered, "Right, your Court Leader told me in secret, saying your work lacked prioritization, and unknowingly offended someone. It seems someone is secretly plotting against you. He couldn’t figure it out, so he suppressed you for a while, preventing you from handling cases..."

At this point, Elder Gu Hong sighed, "Working at Daoist Court won’t be smooth sailing, ups and downs are common. Don’t be troubled by a temporary setback."

"Moreover, you could say this is a good thing..."

Elder Gu Hong fixed her gaze intensely on Gu Changhuai, "Now that you have time, hurry up and go on a date!"

Gu Changhuai felt a headache and remained silent.

"Why don’t you get it, child?"

Elder Gu Hong shook her head, took out a portrait, and pushed it in front of Gu Changhuai.

Gu Changhuai looked coldly, not even glancing.

"Look at it." Elder Gu Hong glared and said.

Gu Changhuai reluctantly glanced at it, but after one look, turned his head away dismissively.

Curious, Mo Hua also leaned over and peeped.

Elder Gu Hong, seeing Gu Changhuai’s lack of sense, was a bit angry and turned to ask Mo Hua, "How is it, isn’t she beautiful?"

Mo Hua scrutinized it.

The portrait indeed depicted a very beautiful woman, with a flower-like, jade-like appearance, her face resembling a peach blossom with curved eyebrows.

In terms of appearance alone, she could indeed be considered stunning.

However, the heavy makeup made her look somewhat seductive.

And in Mo Hua’s eyes, she’s not as beautiful as Little Mistress.

Mo Hua nodded, "Beautiful."

Elder Gu Hong beamed with happiness, "You have an eye for beauty, unlike your Uncle Gu, as indifferent as a stone."

Mo Hua pondered for a moment, suddenly remembering something, and asked:

"Elder, is this the person you previously introduced to Uncle Gu, the flower-like, jade-like, heavenly immortal Inner Gate Instructor from Hundred Flower Valley?"

Elder Gu Hong was a bit surprised and nodded, "You actually remember, yes, that’s the girl..."

"Later, I made careful inquiries, this girl’s name is Hua Ruyu, she’s from the direct lineage of the Hua family in Hundred Flower Valley. Though her line is somewhat distant, she’s definitely of direct lineage, her bloodline is fine..."

After speaking, she was somewhat disgruntled, "Changhuai, this Supervisor, all day fighting, coupled with his bad temper, those direct-lineage daughters from bloodline-perfect, high-status families definitely wouldn’t marry him."

"This is already the best I could find, not needing to marry far away, right within the Qianxue State Boundary, in one of the Twelve Streams, Hundred Flower Valley. A Daoist Court Supervisor, an Inner Gate Instructor, maybe she might even become an Inner Gate Elder in the future; how well-matched they’ll be..."

"Indeed..." Mo Hua nodded.

"Moreover, the appearance is good too..." Elder Gu Hong emphasized again.

Gu Changhuai calmly replied, "Aunt, don’t judge by appearances alone. It’s hard to know the heart, people who look good aren’t necessarily nice."

Elder Gu Hong, exasperated, immediately said, "Then look in the mirror, check your own appearance, are you not something nice either?"

Gu Changhuai was rendered speechless.

Elder Gu Hong pointed at Mo Hua, "And look at Mo Hua, such a handsome and adorable child, isn’t he nice?"

Gu Changhuai muttered, "He’s not really ’nice’ either..."

Elder Gu Hong almost wanted to pinch his ear, "You’re already a grown-up, still badmouthing children."

Mo Hua quietly reminded, "Elder, let’s focus on the main issue; my matters are not important."

"Look, Mo Hua is so generous!"

Elder Gu Hong commented again on Gu Changhuai and then looked at Mo Hua, her expression gentle, unable to help but sigh, "If Changhuai were half as sensible as you, I’d be satisfied."

"He’s over ten times your age, yet not a tenth as thoughtful."

Mo Hua nodded instinctively.

Gu Changhuai’s face was expressionless, full of a feeling of helpless despair.

"Alright, it’s getting late, I have matters to attend to." Elder Gu Hong glanced at Gu Changhuai, her tone carrying a hint of warning:
