Chapter 1470: Can Only Convince Gu Dongxing’s Fiancée to Let Go

Meng Li insisted, "No, I won’t give up. In this lifetime, I shall marry no one but him. Besides, it’s already too late."

Suddenly, she burst into tears.

Wang Tielin asked, perplexed, "Too late for what?" Could it be that Gu Dongxing had done something to his granddaughter? If that were the case, he wouldn’t let Gu Dongxing get away with it.

Meng Li cried, "When Gu Dongxing had a huge hole in his belly from the rhino attack, not knowing whether he’d live or die, I swore to him: If he’s crippled, I’ll be his wife; if he’s a vegetable, I’ll take care of him for life; if he dies, I’ll remain a widow. Otherwise, may thunder strike me."

"Grandfather, you know I’m a cultivator, and the vows of a cultivator, if not fulfilled, will have repercussions. So now, if I can’t marry Gu Dongxing, I’ll die!"

Wang Tielin was stunned.

He knew his granddaughter was a cultivator and was aware of some of the cultivator’s rules. This was because his ancestors were also involved in immortal cultivation; even he himself was a cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm. But, his descendants couldn’t cultivate due to the lack of Spirit Roots.

That’s why, upon discovering that Meng Li had Spirit Roots, he recognized her as his granddaughter. Later on, she was chosen by an Immortal Master from the Immortal Sect during his travels and became his disciple.

But the fact that his granddaughter had sworn an oath that must be kept, or else the vow would retaliate!

A cultivator’s vow should not be made recklessly; failing to fulfill it could result in retaliation!

"Lili, how could you make such a rash vow?" Wang Tielin felt resolute disappointment.

"Grandfather, I truly love Gu Dongxing. Moreover, at that time Gu Dongxing was nearly dying because he was injured while protecting me from the rhino attack, and the special forces members were blaming me heavily. That’s why I made such a vow."

Wang Tielin’s face turned dark: "So, they forced you to swear?"

Who would dare force his granddaughter to swear?

Meng Li quickly replied, "No, no, no, it wasn’t others who forced me, it was my own will. When I realized Gu Dongxing was about to die, I thought that if he were gone, I would follow him. That’s why I made such a vow."

Wang Tielin was silent for a while, then sighed deeply, saying, "I didn’t expect your feelings for him to be so profound."

It seems I’d better have a good talk with Gu Dongxing’s fiancée to make her let go.

However, this won’t be easy; how can a girl easily give up her fiancé, especially such an outstanding one?

Unless he could offer something that would capture her heart even more.

In his eyes, whether he could make her give up would depend on the advantages he could offer.

Meng Li’s eyes gleamed with a hint of triumphant satisfaction.

Indeed, she had deliberately sworn that oath.

On the mission with Gu Dongxing, she could see that although Gu Dongxing saved her several times, it was because of the organizational requirement to protect her. No matter how she tried to seduce him, he never responded.

So, she took advantage of Gu Dongxing’s unconscious state and made a solemn vow in front of the special forces members, so that if she pursued Gu Dongxing, no one would criticize her.

Others may not believe in vows, but cultivators do, even ancient martial artists believe in them. Her recognized grandfather was born into a Master Cultivation Family and was a hidden cultivator, so he certainly believes in them too.

He certainly couldn’t watch her knowingly go to her death, right? So, even knowing that Meng Li used the vow to manipulate Gu Dongxing, to prevent her from suffering retaliation from the vow, he would have to assist her in winning over Gu Dongxing!
