Chapter 777: This old man had innocent relations with your mother

Faced with Gu Yuntian’s questioning, Han Yunxi dearly wished to rip off her own face mask and tell him her identity, then curse him out. But that wouldn’t change anything! So she had to keep laying low. Gu Qishao’s status had yet to be verified, while Medical City had their jaws on her connections with the Poison Sect. If she exposed herself now, Gu Qishao wouldn’t need to test his blood, nor would Gu Beiyue need to participate in the competition for medical skills. They’d all be either kicked out or shooed away. 

Suppressing her urges, Han Yunxi made her voice raspier and said, “It’s not important who I am. Academy Head Gu should do the blood dripping test to verify relations first.” For the sake of distracting his attention, she goaded, “Unless Academy Head Gu doesn’t dare?”

Gu Yuntian gave her a disdainful look, but didn’t fuss. “Someone come, bring over a knife.” 

He wound up his sleeve and slashed his finger in the open for everyone to see. 

Is this old thing really so fearless?

Han Yunxi grew uneasy. She glanced at Gu Qishao, whose smile seemed rather fixed. 

Gu Yuntian, just where do you get your confidence?

While both Han Yunxi and Gu Qishao were feeling uncertain, Gu Yuntian had already dripped his blood into the bowl after Gu Qishao. The bowl was set right on the table onstage. The audience offstage all wanted to move forward and see the results with their own eyes, but none of them dared. Han Yunxi long knew what the results would be, but she was still worried. She stared fixedly at the water, afraid that someone might have meddled with it. Meanwhile, both Gu Qishao and Gu Yuntian remained silent with hooded eyes. 

Quiet stretched across the stage and to the audience beyond. The two drops of blood gradually dissolved in the water before slowly coming together to turn the liquid a faint red hue. Gu Qishao smiled at the sight, a grin both pure and wicked like that of a three-year-old child who had won a nasty bet. His joy was both sincere, yet a touch mischievous.

“They combined!” Gu Qishao grinned at Gu Yuntian, who remained calm. He only looked at Gu Qishao without expressing an opinion. Cloud Realm Continent recognized identifying blood relations with the blood dripping test. What should have relieved Han Yunxi only worried her because of Gu Yuntian’s attitude. Meanwhile, Gu Qishao personally took the bowl of water offstage for the first row to review. Before an announcement could be made, various members of the first few rows all swarmed over for a look themselves. The three medical academy department heads and elders were the first to see the results. Their faces blanched at the sight as they remained dumbfounded.

Faced with the increasingly crowded scene, Luo Zuishan shouted, “What’s with all this pushing and shoving? Are you all watching a show? Everyone back to their seats, or else get lost!”

At his words, everyone sat back them. They were people with status and titles, so nobody wanted to lose face. Luo Zuishan was long aware of the truth and didn’t need to look to know that the blood drops had combined. He had saved Little Qi in the past, and the boy had hidden himself in his home. That was why Academy Head Gu and Head Elder Ling’s men couldn’t find traces of him around the city. Little Qi hadn’t told him the facts back then, so he only knew the boy had been falsely accused. Many years later, Little Qi had told him in the middle of the night about his relationship with Gu Yuntian and his undying body. After dumping a heap of information on him, he’d gone off to sleep for three days and three nights. Later on, he realized that Little Qi hadn’t slept for a week before finding him that night.
