Gu Yucheng's cultivation level was banned and he was imprisoned in Xue Mansion for more than a month. He simply asked for a copy of "Han Feizi" from Niu Youde, otherwise Gu Yucheng's mind and body would have been dulled long ago.

Niu Youde and Xue Sushang each had their own worries recently, but they didn't bother Gu Yucheng. Gu Yucheng was also happy and at ease.

The only person Niu Youde can contact is Xue Sushang.

However, during this period of time, Xue Sushang almost stayed behind closed doors. Even though Niu Youde felt the undercurrent surging, he had no power to rely on in this undercurrent, and for a while there was nothing he could do.

Because he was worried about being expelled from the Xue Mansion, Niu Youde had no time to practice and walked around.

Gu Yucheng was repeatedly pondering "Han Feizi" in his hand when his thoughts were interrupted by the footsteps of Niu Youde walking around the courtyard. Gu Yucheng looked at Niu Youde outside the window, "Brother Niu...why is your face so sad?"

Niu Youde frowned and saw Gu Yucheng's free and easy expression in the window, quite enjoying himself. He asked in confusion, "Every time I see you in the past few days, you always look contented.

Are you not worried about the situation at all? - As far as I know, only people who know everything well can be as carefree as you."

Gu Yucheng shook his head, "If I really didn't care about what happened in the outside world, I would have gone deep into the documents and wouldn't have heard Brother Niu's footsteps at all. I was just waiting."

Niu Youde asked doubtfully, "What are you waiting for?"

Gu Yucheng stood up, "I used to be a timid person, and now I am very cautious. But I understand a truth. Treating unknown things should be like treating a duel between swordsmen. Except for the goal in my heart, I will not waver at all.

No. Before you can change anything, all you can do is wait."

Gu Yucheng put down "Han Feizi" "My cultivation level has been banned. Although I don't know how to leave Xuecheng and enter the demon country, at least I won't mess up my position. So besides peace of mind, what else can I do?"

When Niu Youde heard this, he smiled mockingly. He realized that his character was inferior to Gu Yucheng's by a huge margin.

When Niu Youde looked at Gu Yucheng again, he saw Gu Yucheng looking towards the courtyard door.

Niu Youde followed his gaze suspiciously, but saw nothing.

At this time, Liang Yi walked into the courtyard and looked at Gu Yucheng, feeling full of surprise.

Liang Yi was sure that Gu Yucheng's cultivation level was sealed, but Gu Yucheng could actually feel himself. - Although he did not hide his aura.

Liang Yi's interest suddenly shifted to Gu Yucheng and asked, "Boy, can you feel me?"

Gu Yucheng knew that Liang Yi was Xue Sushang's eldest brother, so he was not very nervous and replied, "Of course!"

Liang Yi looked at Niu Youde and Gu Yucheng from side to side. He suddenly came to the middle of them and explained his purpose of coming, "In ten days, the city lord will expel you."

Niu Youde looked unnatural. Gu Yucheng asked directly, "Before you let me go, will you unlock the seal in my body?"

Liang Yi raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Not necessarily, it depends on your performance."

Gu Yucheng looked questioning, "Performance? If I can perform, that's fine, but now that my cultivation level has been banned, how can I perform?"

Liang Yi laughed loudly when he heard this, "It's simple! - I, oh no, it's the city lord who expels you all. I actually plan to conduct a trial."

Gu Yucheng and Niu Youde looked at Liang Yi at the same time, Liang Yi smiled, "The biggest problem in Xuecheng now is the blending of old and new blood.

In the past, there was a large population circulating here, and the old households could not make things too difficult for the new monks. But since the world was divided into three parts and Xuecheng was established, there are far fewer new monks than before, and the old households especially exclude the new monks.

But Xuecheng cannot become a dead city, or in other words, Xuecheng cannot just live under the old household."

Gu Yucheng's eyes narrowed. If he had never dealt with the problem of Bei Shang Street, Gu Yucheng might not have understood the meaning, but now, Gu Yucheng already knew what Liang Yi wanted to do.

Liang Yi looked at Gu Yucheng's satisfied expression and was particularly optimistic about Gu Yucheng.

Niu Youde was still thinking, and Gu Yucheng asked, "So, the city lord actually wants us Xue Mansion monks to compete with the old Xuecheng residents to form two checks and balances?"

Liang Yi glanced at Gu Yucheng's hand

Looking at "Han Feizi" beside him, he laughed and said, "No wonder you can see it so clearly."

Liang Yi nodded, "To be precise, it's a battle between the old and the new. The winner will enter the Xue Mansion and enjoy better resources and a higher status. In this way, the current problem will be solved..."

Niu Youde glanced at Gu Yucheng in surprise, and then asked tentatively, "So, how can we monks who have left Xue Mansion compete with the old people in Xuecheng? We may not be able to do it with our own strength alone.

."

Liang Yi nodded, "I tell you this today because I like you two. In this test, what you two have to do is to unite the Xue Mansion monks and obtain resources within two months."

.As long as you two succeed, you can return to Xue Mansion."

Gu Yucheng frowned, "So what does this have to do with the seal on me?"

Liang Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Because, I want to see what you can do without relying on your own cultivation?"

Gu Yucheng was completely shocked.

Liang Yi laughed, waved his hand and said, "You two should keep this matter secret and wait with peace of mind." After that, he turned and left.

Gu Yucheng murmured repeatedly, "Don't rely on your own cultivation? Don't rely on..."

Niu Youde looked at Gu Yucheng and could tell that Liang Yi was very fond of Gu Yucheng.

Gu Yucheng sighed to Niu Youde, "But I don't care about Xue Mansion at all. What I want is to enter the Demon Kingdom."

Niu Youde looked at Gu Yucheng and asked puzzledly, "Since your sister is not your direct biological relative, why go to the Demon Kingdom to die?"

Gu Yucheng's eyes darkened and he shook his head slightly, "She is the only person in this world that I can feel family affection for. What's more, I, the elder brother, once felt guilty for her, but I feel guilty in my heart if I can't help it. I might as well live on."

One death."

Niu Youde was shocked and sighed, "So, she is your sister?"

Gu Yucheng rolled his eyes at Niu Youde and said, "Of course."

Niu Youde thought of his sister named Shitou. As his elder brother, Niu Youde suddenly understood Gu Yucheng's mood, and finally sighed, "I won't help you go to the Demon Country, but I won't stop you this time.

You can rely on yourself."

Gu Yucheng smiled when he heard this, "What? You suddenly changed your gender?"

Niu Youde smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just hope that no matter what, you can achieve the results you want."

Gu Yucheng nodded and sat back in his seat, "I'll lend you some good words."

Niu Youde saw this and left alone.

…

Liang Yi came to Xue Sushang's residence, felt Xue Sushang's breath and looked for him.

Following the breath, Liang Yi saw Xue Sushang picking up stones under the rockery, and Liang Yi's heart suddenly softened.

Whether it was Xue Shan, the father, or Liang Yi, the eldest brother, the time he could really spend with Xue Sushang was probably not as much as the time Xue Sushang spent with the rocks in the rockery.

Liang Yi walked gently behind Xue Sushang, and after letting Xue Sushang feel his presence, he softly said, "Shang'er. Xiao Shang'er."

Xue Sushang was angry and moved his body to prevent Liang Yi from getting close.

Liang Yi chased after him, came to Xue Sushang's side, and took the stone from Xue Sushang's hand.

Xue Sushang immediately became angry and said, "Ah! Why are you like this?!"

Upon seeing this, Liang Yi knelt down and touched Xue Sushang's fluffy hair as golden as wheat ears. "Does Shang'er still care about the virtues of cattle?"

Xue Sushang did not deny it, but was angry and did not answer.

Seeing this, Liang Yi understood everything. Then he asked, "Why does Shang'er care so much about Niu Youde?"

Xue Sushang took the stone back, held it in his hand, and after a long time replied, "The only thing I can hold is the stone. In other words, the stone will not leave. It will not leave me. A cow has virtue, but he is as stupid as a stone."

Liang Yi suddenly understood and nodded, "I understand." He hugged Xue Sushang in his arms and apologized lovingly, "It's my eldest brother and father's fault. We all have things to bear on our shoulders and we can't always be with you."

."

Xue Sushang did not answer. Liang Yi only felt that Xue Sushang was trembling. Liang Yi knew that his little devil was crying.

Liang Yi cursed directly in his heart: "

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Fuck it, why do you care about so much? I was still thinking that if Niu Youde won, let him choose. Today he won and could only be the butler of Shang'er! With me here, he dares to have second thoughts, he dares to be right

Shang'er is not good, I removed his arms! I removed his legs! He also disabled the third leg!"

Liang Yi hugged Shang'er and coaxed, "Okay, okay, Shang'er won't cry, Shang'er won't cry."

Xue Sushang rubbed Liang Yi's chest and said harshly, "Who cried? I didn't!"

Liang Yi chuckled, "Okay, no, no. - Brother is here today because he wants to tell you a good thing."

Xue Sushang asked angrily, "What good thing?"

Liang Yi smiled and said, "Father has decided to promote Niu Youde to be your housekeeper, and he will stay with you from now on."

Xue Sushang was stunned for a moment, looked at Liang Yi, and asked softly, "Really...really?"

Liang Yi rubbed Xue Sushang's head fiercely, "Of course! - But there are preconditions."

Hearing this, Xue Sushang quickly asked, "What's the premise?"

Liang Yi looked at Xue Sushang and comforted him softly, "Father still wants to drive away the monks in the house. However, this is a trial, a test of Niu's virtue. As long as he completes the test, he can be your

The housekeeper will stay in Xue Mansion forever."

Xue Sushang quickly asked, "What if Niu Youde fails?"

Liang Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will help him... Even if he fails, he can still return to Xue Mansion to accompany Shang'er. He just can't be a housekeeper."
