"This kid actually knows how to use spiritual energy grass to speed up his cultivation. It seems that the soul refiner who left him the Soul Flame Orb also left him a lot of good things." Gu Ling looked at Gu Fan who disappeared at the door.
Tian murmured to himself. Everything Gu Fan has experienced so far, nothing has escaped Gu Lingtian's eyes. He knows what happened to Gu Fan even better than Gu Fan himself.
"It only takes a few days to make such progress. No matter how high my expectations for him are, it still exceeds my expectations. He gives us more and more surprises. It seems that he was born to create miracles."
I'm looking forward to it even more." Suddenly, a voice came from the dark corner of the study, and the listless old man in black walked out slowly.
"I have a hunch that Fan'er will definitely be a troublesome existence for them in the future. His appearance will break all the rules that have been set. This is fate! His fate!" Afterwards, the old man in black was full of profound meaning.
He added a sentence, especially emphasizing the word 'them', as if he was referring to a very powerful force.
"They? The debt they owe will have to be repaid one day!" Gu Lingtian lowered his head and looked at the four powerful characters with iron pen and silver hook on the white paper on the desk. After all the hardships, the joy came! His heart was filled with joy and relief. Fortunately, this was the case.
Four words, not an endless sea of suffering.
"Yes, you must always repay what you owe! Using Yang Emperor's fifteen-year sealing sword to buy Gu Fan today seems to be worth it! However, I am afraid that if they know what happened to Gu Fan,
I won't be able to sit still, and the original agreement may also come to nothing." The old man in black said with some worry.
"My grandson is not so restless! Besides, Emperor Yang only seals the sword, not wastes it. They don't dare to have no scruples!" At this moment, Gu Lingtian's eyes were extremely sharp, and unprecedentedly cold, like a sword.
A sharp knife.
After solving the problem of gold coins, Gu Fan felt completely relieved. Although it brought greater pressure, thinking from another perspective, it was not a huge motivation. Such pressure would only make him less confident about the progress of his cultivation.
Become more eager!
Time rushed by, just as Gu Fan was practicing day and night, and before he knew it, winter came, and a vast sheet of heavy snow enveloped the entire huge city of Tana, like a blanket of silver, holy and noble!
Eight months passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, few people in the Gu family could see Gu Fan. Many people had even forgotten about this good-for-nothing who had returned to the Gu family.
But some people who are particularly focused on Gu Fan know that he has always been in the Gu family, always in his remote courtyard. Except for leaving the Gu family once a month, he has never left his separate courtyard.
Every day's meals are delivered by a dedicated person who will pick them up as soon as they are there without stopping.
During these eight months, Gu Fan seemed to be isolated from the world, and he had been immersed in the hard practice for eight months. Gu Lingtian fulfilled his promise, and during these eight months, he provided endless supplies
The gold coins Gu Fan needed, and the young man who sold him the Spiritual Energy Grass did not disappoint Gu Fan. As long as Gu Fan opened his mouth, no matter how much the quantity was, the other party could actually make the transaction on time.
Especially in the eighth month, Gu Fan's refining and absorption of spiritual energy grass has reached a point where the demand is quite huge. There are only three hundred plants at the beginning. Yes, three hundred plants. After these eight months,
Gu Fan's absorption speed has increased tenfold! And the young adventurer, who seemed to have low abilities, also carried out the transaction as scheduled, three hundred aura grasses, not one of them was missing!
This point really surprised Gu Fan, but it also suited Gu Fan's wishes and saved him a lot of trouble, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.
In the Gu family and Gu Lingtian's study, there was a young man standing in front of Gu Lingtian's desk. He looked very submissive. If you look carefully, you will find that his body is trembling slightly and he is deeply bowed.
His head was spinning, and he didn't even dare to look up at Gu Lingtian. This legendary old man was a real big shot in the young man's heart, a big shot that he had never dared to imagine!
"Your work has been done, and you have received all the benefits you deserve. I don't want my grandson to know about this matter. From now on, you can disappear in Tana City." Gu Lingtian said lightly,
He didn't even look at the young man.
"Yes ---, I will leave Tana City right now and will never come back. Please don't worry Gu Fan." The young man mustered up the courage to raise his head and revealed an ordinary face. If Gu Fan were here, he would definitely be surprised.
This was clearly the young man who sold him the spiritual energy grass.
After saying this, the young man bowed deeply and left the study room fearfully. What happened in the past eight months was like a dream to him, a beautiful dream that did not require him to pay anything.
He earned many, many gold coins, enough for him to buy a first-rate spiritual skill.
Just after his second transaction with Gu Fan, he never dreamed that Gu Lingtian, the famous head of the Gu family in the Huangfu Empire, would actually find him in person.
Give him an unlimited amount of spiritual energy grass and ask him to sell it to Gu Fan. Although he doesn't understand why Gu Lingtian doesn't give it directly to Gu Fan, but instead asks him to be the middleman and gives him a large amount of gold coins.
That is no longer important to him, because he will never appear in Tana City from now on!
I can't, and I dare not!
"The appointment in August has arrived, and tomorrow is the clan's annual reunion---" Gu Lingtian looked out the window with a pair of sharp eyes. That direction was where Gu Fan's residence was.
--------------------------Today is a very important day for the entire Gu family, and for the younger generation of the Gu family
For rising stars, it is a day full of opportunities. Today is the day of the Gu family's annual competition.
If you get the top three in the annual competition, you will get the attention of the Gu family and the key training from Gu Lingtian, which means that you will get a lot of training resources, such as spiritual skills, spiritual beads, gold coins, and even
An ownerless magic weapon!
This is an opportunity. If you seize it, it is no exaggeration to say that you will soar into the sky and leave your peers far behind in one fell swoop.
In a family like the Gu family, where everything is based on strength and ability, no one does not pay attention to the year-on-year comparison. Even the old men of the Gu family attach great importance to it, and the younger generation are all working hard for this, and want to win in the future.
Being prominent here can make several old men of the Gu family, especially Gu Lingtian, look at each other.
If you want to participate in the annual competition, there is a strict rule. You must be under the age of twenty and have one star of spirituality or above. You can participate. You are indispensable!
The sun had just risen, and everyone in the Gu family gathered in the huge martial arts field of the Gu family. The youngest ones were even still in their parents' infancy. Regardless of whether they were qualified to participate or not, they would not miss this grand event of the Gu family.
In the center of the martial arts arena, a large arena was set up. Beside the arena, there was a higher stand, on which sat the five most powerful elders of the Gu family. Gu Lingtian, with a stern face, sat in the center.
On the left and right are his four brothers, Gu Lingyun, Gu Lingfeng, Gu Lingshan, and Gu Linghai.
"I believe everyone knows what day today is. I won't talk nonsense anymore. Those who think they are qualified to participate in this year's annual competition, come up and test!" Suddenly, a middle-aged man jumped out of the crowd and stood firmly.
On the stage several meters high, he glanced at the people in the audience with a serious face, especially those young and immature faces.
"I'll come first!" The crowd was quiet for a moment, and a young man's voice rang out first. He stepped hard on the ground with his feet and jumped onto the ring. He bowed respectfully to Gu Lingtian and other old men on the high platform.
Then, he turned around and faced the crowd, shouted in vain, and a white light erupted from his body, and then a lotus flower with two stars and one petal appeared.
"Gu Yuelin, two stars of the spirit, eighteen years old, qualified!" The middle-aged man said with a stern face. At this moment, the old man Gu Lingyun on the high platform showed a faint smile, because this Gu Yuelin is of his lineage
descendants.
"Next." The middle-aged man said, and then, one after another, boys and girls jumped onto the ring and activated the lotus pads in their bodies. After careful calculation, there were forty or fifty people. These people were all
Those under the age of twenty are still in the spirit realm. From this, it can be seen that the third generation of the Gu family does not actually have any particularly amazing talents.
But it has to be said that if so many young spiritual beings all grow up in the future, they will form an extremely huge force! This is the basis for a family to continue to reproduce, and this is the vitality of the Gu family.
Among these teenagers, there was a girl who was the most conspicuous. She was not tall, and her face still looked a little fat. Standing with the other teenagers and girls, she was almost drowned, but she still stood on her heels with her mouth pouted, as if
It's so cute to want others to know that she exists.
She is Gu Beibei. Before August, she was still at the ninth level of cyclone. At this time, she actually broke through to the spirit realm and became the smallest person to participate in the competition this year.
"Beibei is a good seedling." Gu Lingtian said lightly. Gu Linghai, who was sitting next to him, looked at Gu Beibei and showed a doting smile. Several other old men also laughed gently.
, they all like Gu Beibei, the apple of the eye of the Gu family.
"Second brother, Fan'er..." Gu Linghai looked around the audience, but could not see Gu Fan's shadow. After hesitating for a long time, he finally couldn't help but ask, who among these brothers is he?
The one who has no desire to compete feels a little sorry for Gu Fan. After all, Gu Fan always calls him "grandpa".
"It will come!" Gu Lingtian looked at the ring without squinting, motionless.
