Chapter 1467: Seeking the Truth

Before Wang Tielin could speak, someone scolded Nan Mengyu, "How dare you be so impolite in front of the leader!"

Nan Mengyu fearlessly looked directly at Wang Tielin, "Are you Meng Li’s grandfather? I am Gu Dongxing’s fiancée, Nan Mengyu. It’s Dongxing’s duty to save people, and he doesn’t need your granddaughter’s gratitude."

Wang Tielin had investigated Gu Dongxing’s fiancée when Sun Shan showed interest in Gu Dongxing.

But all he found was that Nan Mengyu was a university student from Xiayao Village, Jiangzhou Brigade, Damiang Town, Xiangyang County, Southern Province. She had once been kidnapped and was rescued by Gu Dongxing.

Due to the special nature of the Nan Family, no information about them could be found. On the surface, what Nan Xiao declared was only a name; nothing else was clear to people.

Moreover, since Nan Mengyu didn’t want to enter the Immortal Sect too early, Nan Xiao feared others would know Nan Mengyu was already a Golden Core cultivator, so he simply had Dragon Chief set her information to top-secret level.

Therefore, in Wang Tielin’s eyes, Gu Dongxing just had a fiancée who grew up in the countryside, and this fiancée merely liked to do some good deeds.

Additionally, as his daughter said, Gu Dongxing is a cultivator, yet getting romantically involved with a girl from the countryside likely happened because there was some dealing when saving her.

Meng Li took a liking to Gu Dongxing, and since Gu Dongxing was willing to risk his life to save Meng Li, he must have taken a liking to Meng Li. This was considered a certainty.

However, upon hearing this girl claim to be Gu Dongxing’s fiancée and seeing her undeniable beauty and demeanor, he suddenly felt he might have misunderstood.

Gu Dongxing and this girl were not as simple as he thought—just being involved because Gu Dongxing was blackmailed after saving someone.

Commander Wang looked towards Meng Li, "Come with me for a moment."

Meng Li looked smugly at Nan Mengyu: I have my grandfather backing me up, just you wait!

Seeing that Gu Dongxing was no longer in serious trouble, the special forces members bid farewell to Nan Mengyu and were about to leave.

But Nan Mengyu stopped the last team member, "Comrade, I have something I’d like to ask you to help with. Can you stay for a moment?"

Seeing the team member hesitate, she added, "It’s about Gu Dongxing."

Nan Mengyu had long noticed that whenever this team member looked at Gu Dongxing, his eyes were filled with passionate admiration and gratitude.

When Lin Bin reported to Wang Tielin that Gu Dongxing risked his life to shield Meng Li, getting seriously injured himself, the team member’s eyes flashed with surprise, confusion, and anger.

She realized that perhaps Lin Bin’s account of Gu Dongxing saving Meng Li was not entirely truthful. Therefore, she took the opportunity to keep this team member behind.

This team member, naturally, was Wang Zhong, who had once been saved by Gu Dongxing using a Revitalizing Pill.

Upon hearing Nan Mengyu ask him to stay, and that it involved his admired benefactor Gu Dongxing, Wang Zhong immediately stayed behind, "Sister-in-law, is there anything you need me to do?"

Nan Mengyu thought for a moment before saying, "I wonder if you’ve heard that in the Ancient Martial World, there is a spiritual medicine known to be very effective for healing injuries, called Rejuvenation Pills. As long as the injury isn’t fatal, no matter how severe, taking one can almost fully heal it. Due to its rarity, it can sell for a million per pill in Xiangjiang.

Additionally, there is another even more powerful holy healing medicine, capable of restoring one to their prime even from a fatal injury, as long as it’s administered before the last breath. Holding a Revitalizing Pill is like having an extra life, so it can fetch a billion M yuan per pill in Xiangjiang.

Before Dongxing left for his mission, I gave him a bottle of Rejuvenation Pills that my Master had given to me. However, sensing danger ahead, I also gave him a Revitalizing Pill meant for saving my life."

Nan Mengyu looked at Wang Zhong and, as expected, she saw shock and gratitude in Wang Zhong’s eyes, along with a hint of guilt.
