The moment he said this, everyone's attention was drawn over.
The speaker was a tall man with loose hair, bronze skin, and painted totems on his face. His aura surged powerfully; he was clearly in the Mystic God Realm.
Everyone in the room knew him. He was Gu Bili, Gu Kehan's eldest son and the appointed heir to the position of clan chief.
Once Gu Kehan passed away, Gu Bili, as the eldest son, would become the next clan chief. He was the eldest, and he had reached the Mystic God Realm, so his succession was entirely justified. No one had the power to contend with him.
Gu Kehan had three sons in total. The eldest was Gu Bili, the third was Gu Muqi, whom Fan Lang had met, and the second was also present, though he was rather inconspicuous amid the crowd.
Gu Kehan did not disregard his eldest son's warning.
"Don't worry. I will inspect this pill before taking it, and I'll only consume it after confirming that there's nothing wrong with it," said Gu Kehan.
"Father, your son is willing to test the medicine with his own body, in case there is something wrong with the pill. The people of the Soaring Dragon Continent have always been treacherous. We must be on guard!" Gu Bili declared loudly.
These words were completely undisguised and fell directly into Fan Lang's ears.
To say such things right in front of Fan Lang showed that Gu Bili was a straightforward man, though he was a little too straightforward. That was not a good thing.
Fan Lang remained calm and did not take offense.
Gu Kehan put away the pill without taking it on the spot. It seemed he intended to bring it back for a thorough inspection, which was only natural.
