"When will he be free from worries and not tied down by anything, including family ties, then he will be able to become an out-and-out strongman and grow up." Gu Lingtian suddenly said.
Then, he looked deeply in the direction of the mansion, even though he couldn't see anything, and then turned around and walked towards the study.
"Hey, you're still so stubborn. Even if you can't be ruthless, let alone Fan'er. If you are ruthless, you won't be a human being." The old man in black sighed, shook his head, and walked into the study.
go.
Outside the Gu family's mansion, Gu Fan and others did not stand for long. After several old men praised and encouraged each other, Gu Lingyun said: "Okay, everyone, stop hanging here and go back to the house. This time you will
They all have injuries of varying degrees of severity, let’s recover from the injuries first, and we’ll talk about the rest later.”
The oldest man in the Gu family spoke. Gu Fan was relieved now. He had wanted to leave for a long time. The tired body that had been severely injured really made him feel a little overwhelmed. At that moment, he said hello and quickly walked into the mansion and said to him.
Go to your own garden.
Returning to the courtyard, Gu Fan walked into the room without hesitation, closed the door tightly, and felt the familiar atmosphere and environment. He exhaled heavily and showed a smile from the bottom of his heart. This time, Sheng Ling
Yes, the result made him very satisfied, beyond his expectation. He once again used strong and powerful actions to prove to everyone that he was no longer a waste!
Suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Gu Fan calmed down and sat cross-legged on the bed. He took out a few spiritual beads from the ancient ring and swallowed them in one gulp. He threw away all distracting thoughts in his mind and quickly entered an ethereal state.
, the powerful medicinal power was slowly repairing the injuries in the body, and the already tired and weak soul also entered a peaceful state - the next day, the Gu family became more lively than ever, and outside the mansion, everything suddenly became...
The crowds are bustling. Although there are usually a lot of people visiting the Gu family, there has never been such an endless stream. It can definitely be regarded as overwhelming. As soon as one person arrives, another person follows closely behind. This group of people
Before they left, the next group of people came through the door again.
Most of these are from the families that are attached to the Gu family, and they have come to congratulate each other. How can they not come to congratulate the Gu family for such a glorious thing? They may not be able to do things like providing help in times of need, but such things are the icing on the cake.
But it will definitely arrive!
But these people are not all who came to the Gu family today. There are also a small number of people who are expected by the old men of the Gu family, that is, representatives of those sects or colleges. The purpose of visiting the Gu family is obvious.
We came here for Gu Fan and Gu Jian!
These people were all met by Gu Lingyun and several old men. Gu Lingtian never showed up from beginning to end. Firstly, because these people were not qualified for him to meet in person. Secondly, it fully demonstrated that Gu Lingtian was arrogant.
They didn't take these sects seriously! And none of the representatives of those sects showed dissatisfaction on their faces. They never expected to be received by Gu Lingtian!
They came with utmost sincerity. Some sects even took out their capital and offered the best conditions within their capabilities, hoping to recruit Gu Fan. However, in the end, they all came back disappointed. Gu Lingyun and other old men
They didn't agree to anyone, because they knew that Gu Fan's future had already been planned!
Just when these representatives were leaving the Gu family in despair, in Gu Lingtian's study, a man wearing a jade crown and brocade clothes stood respectfully in front of Gu Lingtian's desk, with his head slightly lowered, and he saluted.
Full of respect, he said: "Gu Gu, I have taken the liberty to come to visit you, and I ask for your forgiveness."
"When I see you, I don't just listen to nonsense." Gu Lingtian turned over an ancient manuscript attentively and said expressionlessly, without even looking at the middle-aged man.
There was a wry smile on the corner of the middle-aged man's mouth. In front of this old man with no cultivation, even he did not dare to breathe. The invisible pressure actually made him feel a little uncomfortable. It was really weird, but he didn't.
It doesn’t seem strange at all, who is Gu Lingtian? He is a unique legendary figure in the Huangfu Empire! His experience is enough to write a thick book, the content of which is thrilling and daunting!
The middle-aged man raised his head and immediately revealed his face. If Gu Fan were here, he would definitely be surprised, because this middle-aged man is none other than the Lord of Tana City who absolutely dominates the Shengling Conference. This
The man who was so majestic in front of everyone and said he was the best, now turned into a little lamb in front of Gu Lingtian - it was simply unbelievable.
"It's like this. The purpose of my visit to Gu this time is to let Gu allow young master Gu Fan to join Huangfu Academy. Young master Gu Fan's talent and determination are the best among the people I have ever met. The empire will definitely do its best.
I will try my best to train Master Gu. Besides, the engagement between Master Gu and Her Royal Highness the Second Princess is already a certainty, and they can be considered a family --- you see ---"
The Lord of Tana City looked at Gu Lingtian and said cautiously. The respect on his face did not dare to diminish at all, but he still did not lose the courage that a City Lord should have.
"Is this what the old guy meant?" Gu Lingtian slightly raised his sharp eyes, put down the book in his hand and said, his tone was so calm that you couldn't hear his emotions at all.
The Lord of Tana City looked stunned. He knew who the old guy Gu Lingtian was referring to, and he did not dare to hide it at the moment. He nodded and said: "Yes, ancient, this is what the monarch means---" The monarch in his mouth,
It is the supreme being of the Huangfu Empire, the monarch of the empire, who can also be called the lord and emperor!
He was actually a little bitter in his heart. He could tell from Gu Fan's performance yesterday. For a person with Gu Fan's character, he would definitely not go back if he said he was not interested in Imperial Academy, no matter how much he was invited.
use.
However, just last night, he received an instruction from Huangfu City, the imperial capital, to try his best even if there was no hope - so he had no choice but to come. If it was not necessary, he did not want to face this almost becoming
Fine old man.
"My appetite is not small. Go back and tell him that I have my own arrangements for my grandson. It is not his turn to cultivate him yet. I will make him give up. There is no need to remind my grandson and Haoyue's marriage. I, Gu Lingtian, have said it for sure. Once
I took advantage of Haoyue, and I will not deny it even now, I will admit that grandson-in-law."
Gu Lingtian's tone was still calm, but it gave people a strong sense of oppression, as if the atmosphere was sinking with his words, which made the Lord of Tana City even more uncomfortable, but he still gritted his teeth, why?
: "This is --- ancient, why don't you think about it again? You know, the conditions in the empire are definitely not worse than those of any sect. Even if Young Master Gu Fan wants to go to those hidden sects, it may not really be better than those trained in the empire.
How much better would it be---"
"Go back, I've said everything I want to say, Gu Fan won't go anywhere." Gu Lingtian said lightly, but the Lord of Tana City still looked embarrassed, hesitant, and seemed to leave like this, and soon
As if it was a difficult task, Gu Lingtian's old eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "Please give me a message to that old boy, saying that if he could be stronger than me, he would not have asked me to save his life back then. If it weren't for me, today's country would be
I’m afraid the position of Lord is not his, so why should I train my grandson?”
With these words, the Lord of Tana City's body suddenly trembled, his face changed, and he immediately did not dare to say a word. He quickly lowered his head, paused, and Gu Lingtian continued: "I appreciate his kindness, and I sincerely
I have also seen it, please stop playing tricks like these in the future, they are of no use in front of me, Gu Lingtian."
The Lord of Tana City still did not dare to say anything, and a flash of panic flashed in his eyes with his head lowered. Indeed, his first purpose of coming to the Gu family to find Gu Lingtian this time was to recruit Gu Fan, but another purpose was to show the empire
royal position.
Even if there is some inextricable hatred between the Gu family and the behemoth White Lotus Temple, at this time, they chose to stand on the side of the Gu family, telling Gu Lingtian that even if you have enmity with the White Lotus Temple, we will still support you.
Don't be afraid, this obviously means providing help in times of need rather than adding icing on the cake.
"If you say it, you should bring it back exactly as I said." Gu Lingtian said, and then he opened the book again and never looked at the Lord of Tana City again.
Even if the Lord of Tacheng still wanted to say something, he didn't dare to speak. Gu Lingtian had already said this, but he still dared to be ignorant? Immediately, he bowed to Gu Lingtian and left the study -
- "Haha, Xiao Weizi is still so shrewd. Among those people in the past, he is the only one who can compete with you in a battle of wits." After the Lord of Tana City left, the ghost-like old man in black appeared silently again.
In the study, his tone was full of smiles.
"He? He can be called shrewd. But using a few words to express his position is obviously not firm. If he has the ability to uproot the foundation of the White Lotus Temple in the Huangfu Empire tomorrow, I will look at him differently.
"Gu Lingtian said disapprovingly.
"Actually, he is not bad. He has not forgotten our kindness in helping him. It can be seen from the fact that he was able to get Haoyue and Fan'er engaged. Does he really believe that with the tempers of you and Emperor Yang, you can be like this?
Is it easy to ignore the past grievances with the White Lotus Temple?" the old man in black said with a smile.
"That was a life-saving grace, and I have to repay it." Gu Lingtian said coldly, and the old man in black laughed silently again. The Xiaoweizi in his mouth was none other than Huangfu Tian, the current king and emperor of the Huangfu Empire.
Wei, there are only two people in the entire huge Huangfu Empire who can call him Xiao Weizi, one is the old man in black, and the other is Gu Lingtian who is the most qualified but never calls him!
