"Who is this?"
Gu Feng noticed Ye Jianjia standing aside with surprise in his eyes.
Gu Sheng coughed lightly.
"This is my sect junior sister, Ye Jianjia."
Ye Jianjia's cheeks were slightly red and she gave a bow.
"Seen Senior Brother Qin."
A narrow smile flashed in Gu Feng's eyes, and he patted Gu Sheng on the shoulder.
"After my second brother became enlightened, his luck with women was quite good."
Gu Sheng shook his head helplessly and changed the topic.
"Is father at home?"
"Unfortunately, my father just left yesterday to attend the auction at Golden Crow City. It is estimated that he will not be back for two days."
Gu Feng replied.
Gu Sheng has a strange expression.
"We just came from Golden Crow City"
"That was such a miss."
Gu Feng laughed.
"Let's go inside first. What are you talking about standing at the door?"
Gu Sheng nodded and followed Gu Feng into the mansion. After passing through several courtyards, Gu Feng ordered his servants to prepare refreshments.
"Arrange a good guest room for Junior Sister Ye."
Gu Sheng said to the maid, then turned to Ye Jianjia.
"You go and rest first. My eldest brother and I have some family matters to discuss."
Ye Jianjia nodded obediently and followed the maid away.
Gu Feng watched Ye Jianjia leave and gave Gu Sheng a meaningful look.
"Send away junior sister, is there something important?"
Gu Sheng is noncommittal.
"Let's go to the council chamber and talk."
The two came to the Qin Family meeting hall. Gu Feng waved his hand and an invisible barrier blocked the surrounding sounds.
"Can we talk now?"
Gu Feng sat down on the Taishi chair, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Gu Sheng Look directly into the eyes of the elder brother.
"I applied for the Great Desolation Sacred Academy."
Gu Feng put down the tea cup, anticipation flashed in his eyes.
"What's the result?"
"Failed."
Gu Sheng spoke calmly.
"Something went wrong in the secret realm of the second round of assessment, and I was eliminated."
Gu Feng frowned.
"Based on your current cultivation level, etc., what state are you in now?"
Only then did he realize that he couldn't see through his brother's cultivation.
"Spirit Martial Realm."
Gu Sheng said lightly.
"What?"
Gu Feng stood up suddenly, the tea cup was knocked over, and the tea spilled all over the table.
"You were only Houtian Realm level one when you left home! Just a few months."
"There are so many masters in the assessment."
Gu Sheng gave a simple explanation without mentioning his adventure.
"But I have joined Imperial Sect."
Gu Feng took a deep breath to calm down and sat down again.
"Imperial Sect is also a top sect, not bad. Take the Great Desolation Sacred Academy exam next year. With your talent, you will definitely succeed."
Gu Sheng didn't answer and asked instead.
"Brother, have you ever heard of Venerable Cang Long?"
Gu Feng was startled.
"Great Desolation City was once a strong man, Venerable Realm was a mighty man, he was once famous in the Great Desolation Sacred Academy, and he was the number one person under the dean of that generation. Why do you suddenly mention him?"
Gu Sheng's eyes are burning.
"Because the martial arts my eldest brother practices is very similar to Venerable Cang Long."
Gu Feng's pupils suddenly contracted, then relaxed again.
"You can actually see it. But it's not surprising. I did develop martial arts for you many times in the early years. You know my way."
"It's more than that."
Gu Sheng shook his head.
"I met the remnant soul of Venerable Cang Long in the secret assessment realm."
"What?"
Gu Feng was shocked again.
"Did you get his martial arts inheritance?"
Gu Sheng shook his head again.
"I didn't get the martial arts inheritance, but I brought his remnant soul out of the seal in the secret realm."
Gu Feng Shortness of breath.
"Venerable Realm residual soul."
"I promised to help him find his successor."
Gu Sheng Look directly into the eyes of the elder brother.
"Among the people I know, your martial arts is the most similar to his. I want to leave this opportunity to my eldest brother."
After saying that, Gu Sheng closed his eyes, and a golden light flashed between his eyebrows. When he opened his eyes again, an illusory figure was floating in the center of the chamber.
It was a gray-haired old man. Although he was just a remnant, he exuded a suffocating pressure. The old man's eyes were like lightning as he scanned the room.
Gu Feng's body trembled uncontrollably, which was the instinctive awe of a low-level warrior when facing the most powerful one.
"Brother, this is Venerable Cang Long."
Gu Sheng introduced, then turned to the old man.
"Your Majesty, this is my eldest brother Gu Feng. Yellow Martial Realm is at his peak cultivation level. The martial arts he cultivates are from the same source as you."
Venerable Cang Long's sharp eyes fell on Gu Feng, looking up and down.
Gu Feng It felt as if millions of needles were probing every inch of his skin, and even his soul was being seen through.
After a moment, Venerable Cang Long frowned.
"Mediocre qualifications. He only reached his Yellow Martial Realm peak in his thirties. He is too embarrassed to hold such a big job."
In the meeting hall, the candlelight flickered, reflecting Gu Sheng's Zhang Ping face as calm as water.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes seemingly falling on Gu Feng, but in fact Soul Power had quietly spread and condensed into an invisible sound transmission in the void.
"Venerable Cang Long, but you think my brother is not qualified to be your successor?"
This voice directly penetrated the space and sounded deep in the remnant soul of Venerable Cang Long. It was plain but with unquestionable majesty, as if an invisible sharp blade was pressed against the throat.
In the remnant soul space, Venerable Cang Long's illusory figure suddenly trembled.
When he was alive, he was a strong man in all directions, but now he felt a pressure that made his soul tremble.
The pressure was as deep as the ocean, which actually gave him the illusion that he was facing an ancient power.
"This little friend"
Venerable Cang Long's voice trembled, and his remaining soul fluctuated violently.
"I never meant this"
Gu Sheng's soul voice sounded again, this time with a cold tone.
"If Your Majesty refuses, I don't mind letting your remnant soul completely dissipate."
Before he finished speaking, an even more terrifying soul pressure came, and the remaining soul of Venerable Cang Long was almost crushed.
He was horrified to find that such a terrifying power was hidden in this seemingly ordinary young man.
"Satisfied! I am very satisfied!"
Venerable Cang Long quickly changed his words, his remaining soul fluctuating with panic.
"This son is extremely talented and is the perfect candidate to inherit my legacy!"
Outside, Gu Feng was looking at Cang Dragon Pearl suspended in the air with confusion.
He vaguely felt that the remnant soul in the bead seemed to be trembling, but when he thought about it, he thought it was impossible - how could the dignified remnant soul of Venerable Cang Long be trembling because of him?
"Maybe it's an illusion."
Gu Feng shook his head secretly.
At this moment, Cang Dragon Pearl suddenly glowed brightly, and an old and majestic voice sounded.
"Junior, are you willing to worship me as your teacher and inherit the mantle of my Cang Long Yi lineage?"
Gu Feng was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, knelt down on one knee and cupped his fist.
"Disciple Gu Feng, pay homage to Master!"
"Okay! Okay!"
Venerable Cang Long sounded a little anxious.
"As a teacher, I will pass this inheritance on to you!"
Before he finished speaking, Cang Dragon Pearl burst out with dazzling blue light, and a dragon-shaped shadow flew out from it, instantly getting into Gu Feng's eyebrows.
At the same time, the voice of Venerable Cang Long sounded in Gu Sheng's sea of consciousness.
"Senior, forgive me! All the secret treasures of the old man were hidden in the underground palace of Meteor Moon City. The method of opening them has been imprinted on your consciousness."
Gu Sheng raised the corners of his mouth imperceptibly and said to Gu Feng.
"Brother, the remaining time of the remnant soul is limited. How much you can learn depends entirely on you Fortune."
Gu Feng Feeling the surging power in his body and the skill information emerging in his mind, his hands trembled slightly with excitement.
He looked up at Gu Sheng, his eyes filled with gratitude.
"A Sheng, you gave me this precious inheritance. I really don't know how to repay you for this gift!"
Gu Sheng waved his hand to interrupt him.
"If it weren't for my elder brother who spent his energy to enlighten me and took care of me for many years, how could I be where I am today?"
Gu Feng was startled when he heard this, and memories flashed in his eyes.
That was ten years ago. At that time, Gu Sheng was too weak to practice. He did not hesitate to sacrifice his own essence to forcibly open the meridians for his younger brother. Unexpectedly, my brother always remembered this love.
"Yes"
Gu Feng hesitated for a moment and finally asked the question in his mind.
"A Sheng, why don't you accept this inheritance yourself? With your talent."
Gu Sheng chuckled, with a light in his eyes that Gu Feng couldn't understand.
"Venerable Cang Long's martial arts is still in my eyes."
The strong confidence revealed in these plain words made Gu Feng feel dazed for a moment.
He suddenly felt that the younger brother he had grown up with seemed strange and distant.
But then I thought about it, how could I give up such a precious inheritance if I wasn't my biological brother?
"Right."
Gu Sheng The topic changed.
"Where are the two people who once stayed at home now?"
Gu Feng came to his senses and replied.
"Miss Nangong and the old lady left seven days ago, leaving only a letter and this."
He took out an exquisite ring and a shimmering letter from the storage ring.
"There are thirty High-grade Spirit Stone inside, which should be Miss Nangong's last possessions. There is a formation seal on this letter, but my father and I have not been able to open it. I wanted to bring it to you when I go to Great Desolation City next month."
Gu Sheng took the letter and touched the seal lightly with his fingertips. The seemingly complicated formation unexpectedly untied itself like ice and snow melting.
Gu Feng was dumbfounded - even his father, a strong Spirit Sea Realm man, was helpless against that formation, but his younger brother could do it so easily.
The letter was unfolded, and the delicate and somewhat playful handwriting jumped into view.
"Master Qin personally opened the ceremony.
Qingyue left without saying goodbye, which was really helpless. Meng Qin Family took me in for more than three months. This kindness and kindness will be unforgettable. However, there is a blood feud in the family, and even though she is a woman, she has to shoulder this important responsibility. Today, my mother-in-law and I have recovered from our injuries. We will return to the world and settle our grudges.
If the fate is not over, we will meet again someday; if there is no hope of revenge, we will get revenge in the next life.
——Nangong Qingyue's last masterpiece"
There is determination between the lines, but it also implies the unique agility of a girl.
Gu Sheng After reading it, he put the letter away with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"What did Miss Nangong say?"
Gu Feng asked curiously.
"Just a few words of thanks and farewell."
Gu Sheng said lightly.
"She didn't want to hurt the Gu family, so she left on her own."
Gu Feng sighed.
"Miss Nangong is such a reasonable person.
Her family has experienced great changes, which is rare. "
Gu Sheng is noncommittal. For him, Nangong Family's matter was just a casual transaction. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to leave, it saves him subsequent trouble.
While the two were talking, a sharp scream suddenly came from the backyard!
"Ah——!"
The voice was clear and sweet, but full of panic. Gu Sheng instantly recognized the voice of Ye Jianjia.
His pupils shrank suddenly, and the aura around him changed.
"What's going on?"
Gu Feng Before he could react, he saw a figure flash in front of him.
call--
A gust of wind passed by, and the figure of Gu Sheng disappeared like a ghost. The speed was so fast that even Gu Feng, the monk who was about to break through the Spirit Sea Realm, could only capture the afterimage!
Gu Sheng As soon as he stepped into the backyard, a fierce sword energy hit his face.
His pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw Ye Jianjia being held by a man in green with a sword on his neck, and a blood streak oozed out from his fair neck.
"Let her go!"
Gu Sheng shouted sharply, the true energy in his body surged instantly, and Yellow Martial Realm the breath of the ninth level was released without reservation.
The man in green clothes was about thirty years old, with a face as cold as a knife. Hearing this, he just glanced at Gu Sheng.
The zhenqi surrounding the opponent is as condensed as real substance. He is clearly a strong person at the ninth level of the Black Tortoise Realm!
"Are you Gu Sheng?"
The man in green had a cold voice.
"Tell me, where did the woman who stayed at Gu's house go?"
Gu Sheng was shocked and immediately understood that the other party was coming for Nangong Qingyue.
He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice.
"Miss Nangong has left, leaving only a letter."
"Where is the letter?"
The man in green moved his wrist slightly, and the sword edge came closer to Ye Jianjia.
Gu Sheng took out the letter left by Nangong Qingyue from the storage ring and threw it at the other party without hesitation. The man in green raised his left hand, and an invisible force of energy rolled the letter in front of him.
His eyes were like lightning, and he quickly scanned the contents of the letter. Then he snorted coldly, and the Qi in his palm surged, and the letter instantly turned into ashes.
"It's too late."
The man in green had annoyance in his eyes, but then turned sharp.
"You who secretly hid Nangong Family are already standing against my master."
Before he finished speaking, the energy around him suddenly exploded, sweeping through the entire backyard like a tornado.
The flowers and plants in the courtyard were uprooted in an instant, and the stone tables and benches were shattered. The powerful pressure locked onto everyone present, including Gu Feng and others who had just arrived.
"Black Tortoise Realm Nine Levels!"
Gu Feng's face turned pale and he could hardly stand still under this pressure.
Gu Sheng, however, kept his expression unchanged and took a step forward to face the violent infuriating energy.
"If you dare to take action, the people behind you will pay an unbearable price."
"Oh?"
The man in green had surprise in his eyes.
"Yellow Martial Realm, how dare you say such arrogant words?"
Gu Sheng sneered and took out a crystal-clear token from the storage ring.
The word "Linlang" on the token shines brightly in the sun, and a complex moiré pattern is engraved on the back.
"See clearly."
Gu Sheng throws the token towards the opponent.
"I am Linlang Pavilion Great Enshrined, and my honor is Third Pavilion Master. If you hurt me at all, please consider whether you can withstand the anger of Tantai Bing Tang!"
The man in green caught the token and his expression changed drastically after just one glance.
He had indeed noticed the holy land mark on the plaque on the door of the Gu family before, but thinking that the sky was high and the emperor was far away, he didn't take it to heart.
But this token cannot be faked - Linlang Pavilion has a transcendent status over Great Desolation City, even Great Desolation Sacred Academy has to show courtesy, and the forces behind him will never dare to offend!
"You"
Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the man in green, and the hand holding the token trembled slightly.
"What? Don't believe it?"
Gu Sheng stood with his hands behind his hands and his tone was calm.
"Do you want me to summon Pavilion Master Tantai now and let her identify it in person?"
The man in green had a gloomy look on his face, and finally he snorted coldly and took back the long sword that was placed around Ye Jianjia's neck.
