The news that the Gu family had refined the Longevity Pill spread throughout Dongzhou City in a short period of time.
The ancient family, which was originally one of four families in Dongzhou City, has become a bustling family in a short period of time.
Almost all the people who came to ask for elixirs came for the longevity elixir.
Such a sudden change is no less impressive than when the Gu family was at its most glorious. This made many people in the Gu family feel pleasantly surprised, but also a little worried.
You know, no one in the Gu family knows how to refine longevity pills!
Those longevity pills were the result of Li Ye, an outsider secretly helping.
It is precisely because of this that the Gu family does not dare to make too high a profile for the time being. Even when several other ancient families sent people to talk about the elixir, the head of the Gu family tactfully dealt with it for the time being.
It can be said that while Li Ye is still here, the Gu family may be able to sit back and relax. But once Li Ye leaves the Gu family, it will even be enough for the Gu family to face a huge crisis.
"The biggest elixir shop in the Gu family?"
On this day, Gu Lie directly found Li Ye and brought a very surprising news.
It turns out that the Gu family actually made an unexpected decision in the past few days.
"Brother Li, let alone your surprise, even I didn't expect it. But this also shows that your status in my Gu family is now much more important than even my direct descendant."
The Gu family wants to give the largest elixir shop directly to Li Ye. This decision is indeed surprising. But Li Ye is not stupid. If he thinks about it carefully, he understands why the Gu family is like this.
At this moment, he smiled slightly, and looked at someone who seemed a little unfair and envious, half-smilingly, and said, "I am flattered by the kindness of the Gu family. How can I, an unknown cultivator, bear such a great gift?
"
An ordinary person would definitely pass out from excitement.
The Gu family has been operating in Dongzhou City for millions of years, and every elixir shop in the Gu family has a history of at least 100,000 years. It can almost be said that any elixir shop is worth a fortune.
And now the Gu family has given away the largest elixir shop.
Gu Lie was shocked to see that Li Ye was not moved at all and wanted to refuse intentionally or unintentionally.
"Brother Li, actually you also guessed it?"
"Have a good guess."
"I know that in fact, this matter is a win-win situation for you and our Gu family, Brother Li, and with Brother Li's talent, we can show our ambitions. You know, if Brother Li is willing, our Gu family will definitely tell the world
Everyone, that longevity pill was refined by Brother Li, not my Gu family."
It turns out that in the past few days, several ancestors of the Gu family actually made decisions after careful consideration.
Now that the Gu family continues to have Li Ye in charge, especially since Dan Zu's deadline has not passed, the Gu family needs someone with sufficient strength in the alchemy path to stabilize the current situation of the Gu family.
And Li Ye happens to be the best candidate.
"I think it's more than just that."
Li Ye smiled. Although the Gu family had no ill intentions towards him, they naturally had some calculations.
And what he dislikes most is someone plotting against him.
Gu Lie was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Brother Li has left out everything, and there are indeed other reasons. But for Brother Li, there are no disadvantages, right?"
The Gu family needed Li Ye to be in charge, and they were even more generous, giving away the Gu family's largest elixir shop with ease. Any other elixir king would definitely be overjoyed.
Unfortunately, Li Ye is not an ordinary alchemy king.
"Indeed, there aren't many disadvantages to me. But there aren't many benefits either, right?"
Just when Gu Lie was disappointed, Li Ye suddenly changed his mind, "I can't stay in the Gu family for too long, but the Gu family can give the elixir shop to another person."
Another person?
"Oh? I wonder who Brother Li is referring to?"
"No cracks."
"Baiwukai? What Brother Li is referring to is the Baiwukai Pill King? But he has already rejected my Gu family's kindness before. Now that Brother Li mentioned it, could it be that Senior Baiwukai has changed his mind?"
A ninth-level alchemy king is definitely worth winning over for the Gu family. Gu Lie is naturally a little tempted. Even if he can't win over Li Ye, at least getting a ninth-level alchemy king can give the Gu family some time to breathe.
"You are wrong. Bai Wukai will not join the Gu family, but he can accept the Gu family's elixir shop."
"This...Brother Li, I can't make the decision on this matter."
Gu Lie really had no way of making the decision. After all, the Gu family's elixir shop was located in the most prestigious area of Dongzhou City. Every inch of land was worth almost every inch, and many ancient families were jealous of it.
Even the Lin family wanted to get this shop at a sky-high price. Unfortunately, the Gu family never let go. The reason why they would give it to Li Ye now is because of Li Ye's superior alchemy skills.
However, the matter came to an end in less than half a day.
Gu Jia actually agreed to Li Ye's conditions.
"Grandpa, my grandson is unknown."
In the Gu family, Gu Lie's face was full of doubts. Although he was a playboy, he knew that the price paid by the Gu family was definitely not low. It would be fine if he wanted to win over Li Ye. Now it was just for a perfect person, but for the Gu family, it was not
Get too much.
Moreover, Bai Wukai has not yet agreed to become the guest king of the Gu family.
"Lie'er, Bai Wukai is a man with a strong personality. Over the years, many members of the Imperial Sect have revealed their recruitment ideas to him, but no one has ever succeeded."
"Yes, this is what my grandson doesn't understand. Bai Wukai received such a great gift from our Gu family for no reason, but he did not relent in agreeing to our conditions. Is this not a loss for our Gu family?"
"Foolish!"
The head of the Gu family snorted coldly, and Gu Lie immediately lowered his head, but he was still a little confused, "My grandson is stupid."
"The origin of Li Ye is mysterious, and it is even rumored that he is the descendant of Emperor Danwu. Now, although he has not agreed to my Gu family's kindness, he has offered Bai Wukai to accept it. Don't you still understand the meaning?
"
"What does grandpa mean?"
"That Bai Wukai has never surrendered to anyone in his life, but now he obeys Li Ye's words. If it weren't for Li Ye's instructions, Bai Wukai's character would never accept a single cent from my Gu family!"
After a long sigh, the head of the Gu family also softened his expression, "There must be a reason why Bai Wukai can be so convinced of a junior. And now, although he has not agreed to become the guest king of the Gu family, he has not refused."
Gu Lie was not an idiot. After hearing this, his eyes quickly lit up. "Grandpa, what you mean is that Brother Li did this intentionally? Is it because of the Helan family?"
Although Li Ye did not agree, he asked Bai Wukai to come forward to take over the Gu family's elixir shop, which was equivalent to hinting to the Gu family that he would not burn bridges. As for the longevity pills that the Gu family needed, with this relationship, there was no need for them.
