There are two reasons.
Perhaps because they had known each other since childhood, Guo Renyu showed no awkwardness and said with a smile, "On one hand, I want to evade the Guo Family's pursuit."
"On the other hand, I was worried that the First Alliance would steal all the good stuff in the secret realm, so I borrowed this treasure that can conceal one's presence from Master Lou and sneaked into this secret realm of Heavenly Cloud Mountain."
As he spoke, Guo Renyu held up the piece of cloth and said truthfully, "I don't have the power to stop the First Alliance, but I thought I might be able to help you gather some information."
" Master Lou..."
Ning Chuan raised an eyebrow, somewhat curious, and asked, "Who is his real identity?"
The cloth in Guo Renyu's hands is quite impressive!
Even when he used his Divine Sense, he could only barely detect a clue.
If it were any other Divine General, or even Heavenly King, they probably wouldn't have been able to detect it.
Upon hearing this, Guo Renyu looked troubled and stammered, "I cannot reveal Master Lou's true identity."
All I can tell you is that he has many identities.
Master Lou is just one of them.
" Zhang San, who rose from a criminal to become the top Federation lawyer, is also one of his identities."
" Zhang San?!"
Ning Chuan was taken aback upon hearing the name.
He had read several of the other party's legal works and benefited greatly from them.
" Ning Chuan, it's not that I don't trust you, but I promised Master Lou I wouldn't reveal this!"
Guo Renyu blushed, feeling embarrassed.
He could tell that Ning Chuan had come to find him.
It's nothing, don't mind it.
Ning Chuan smiled and changed the subject, saying, "By the way, what happened between you and the Guo Family?"
Digging up ancestral graves should be the outcome.
He knew Guo Renyu; he wasn't the kind of person who would cause trouble.
"That's a long story."
Guo Renyu looked reminiscing and said, "You should know that after the summer vacation, I came to the capital with Master Lou, but I didn't expect that just a few days after we arrived, the Guo Family family came knocking on our door."
Ning Chuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, "Does the Guo Family have tracking methods?"
"Um."
Guo Renyu nodded and said, "It's a forbidden technique that Bloodline Resonance, which can roughly determine a location within a certain distance."
But at the time I didn't know that; I just thought it was a coincidence."
He continued, " The Guo Family family was quite polite, asking me about the whereabouts of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture."
They have lie detectors, but I figured it out.
I played a trick on them and told them directly that the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture had been lost to time.
At this point, Guo Renyu chuckled, looking slightly smug.
He wasn't lying.
The last remaining slot for the inheritance of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture was obtained by Ning Chuan, and the inheritance has now been broken.
Ning Chuan shook his head helplessly.
Guo Renyu's smile faded, and he said, " The Guo Family was somewhat disappointed, but they didn't hold a grudge. They asked if I wanted to acknowledge my ancestors, but I was busy learning law from Master Lou and practicing some techniques he taught me, so I didn't agree, and they left."
He ignored Master Lou's instructions.
Ning Chuan did not press further.
However, with his keen senses, he could vaguely perceive that there was a pure energy within Guo Renyu's body, different from the Force.
For the next period of time, I had no problems with the Guo Family.
Not long ago, around December, the Guo Family came to me again, demanding the Martial Seal from the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture.
Now I can't hide it anymore.
They are aware of your existence.
Then, the Guo Family used every means to try to get me to acknowledge my ancestry, which annoyed me to no end. I thought they just wanted to establish a connection with you, so I agreed.
That was true at first, but gradually they went too far!
Guo Renyu gave a brief explanation, his expression revealing dissatisfaction.
" The Guo Family has repeatedly asked me to return the Martial Seal of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture to you, to have you inscribe a new Martial Seal, and to give you the Stars Martial Arts in return... They're all very greedy!"
I wanted to leave, but I found myself imprisoned by the Guo Family. They were well-fed and cared for, but I had no freedom.
Using the method taught by Master Lou, I dug a tunnel to escape, and ended up in the Guo Family's ancestral graveyard. In a fit of rage, I dug it up!
Guo Renyu said indignantly.
Ning Chuan nodded to himself, understanding the grudge between the two sides.
He looked at Guo Renyu and said calmly, "Don't worry, I will help you resolve the Guo Family's affairs. I will also help you inscribe a few Martial Seal from the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture later."
Guo Renyu shook his head and said, "No need, I don't need it. I'll come to you to inscribe it when I get married and have children who need to practice the breathing technique."
After a pause, Guo Renyu instructed, "That Martial Seal of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture was brought back from the secret realm by a powerful figure from the Guo Dynasty; it is the most original one."
Keep this safe and don't give it to the Guo Family.
Their sudden demand must mean they've discovered something.
You can look into it if you have the chance.
Don't you want it?
Ning Chuan said.
He is not a saint; he has material desires, but he also has his own bottom line.
"Like I said, I don't need it. I'm not just being polite; I'll be following Master Lou to continue my cultivation for a long time to come."
Guo Renyu spread his hands and laughed, "Besides, if you give me the Martial Seal, the Guo Family will actually target me."
"Alright, I'll stay then. If I find any treasure, I'll share some with you."
Ning Chuan smiled slightly and returned to the previous topic, saying, "I checked Guo Kaijia's memories. After you left the Guo Family, you were captured and brought back?"
Guo Renyu sighed and nodded, saying, "I was careless. I only found out then that they possessed a forbidden technique for Bloodline Resonance."
"However, they still couldn't stop me, and I managed to escape again. The techniques Master Lou taught me are very effective."
Guo Renyu grinned, raised the cloth in his hand, and said, "This time, it will be difficult for the Guo Family to pinpoint my location; it can blur the Bloodline Resonance to some extent."
Ning Chuan nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "How did you win that lawsuit against the Guo Family?"
Guo Kaijia's memory is only of the verdict.
Ning Chuan was quite curious about the process.
Upon hearing this, Guo Renyu became smug and said, "That's quite interesting."
I started by imprisoning me in the Guo Family, and then defined the act of digging up the ancestral graves as an emergency measure to avoid danger.
The graves of the dead are not as important as the lives of the living.
Reasonable and legal!
Guo Renyu smiled brightly and said, " The Guo Family family was furious. They used my status as a family member to refute the imprisonment, claiming it was a period of seclusion, and the judge accepted it."
Little did they know, the emergency evacuation was merely bait I had thrown out, waiting for them to take the bait.
Since I am a member of the family, how could I possibly be involved in tomb raiding?
Finally, I define this behavior as paying respects to my ancestors. It was just that I was too emotionally overwhelmed, which caused my behavior to be slightly out of control. But this only highlights my filial piety, which is completely understandable.
It's not even a crime, let alone a violation of Federation law enforcement regulations!
Ning Chuan chuckled in disbelief.
Digging up graves is equated with filial piety; the Guo Family is truly pitiful.
However, they don't deserve sympathy.
They deserved it.
Guo Renyu clicked his tongue, seemingly still wanting more, and said, "If the Guo Family hadn't withdrawn the lawsuit at the last minute, I think that ancestral graveyard would belong to me personally..."
Just as the two were talking.
On the other side.
A parched desert, dotted with ancient soldiers.
Four young men carried the unconscious Guo Kaijia at breakneck speed, kicking up huge clouds of dust along the way. They wished their parents had given them two more legs.
