The five hundred and ninetieth chapters come from the ancient family
"Despite the guest order, brother Jing Yan, it's best for you not to leave the Dan Kingdom. They may not dare to deal with you openly, but it's hard to tell them secretly. It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows, so you still need to be careful."
Hu Donghe warned again.
"I really have no plans to leave Dan Kingdom in the short term." Jing Yan nodded in response.
After chatting with Hu Donghe for a while, Jing Yan said goodbye and left.
Tianyuan Continent, Gu family!
The Gu family is one of the seven great families in Tianyuan Continent. It is said that this family has a history of thousands of years. This family existed before the war between humans and gods.
The seven aristocratic families have extremely deep foundations, and any one of them has a strength comparable to that of the Holy City. However, today's seven aristocratic families are relatively low-key. Moreover, they all obey the leadership of the Holy City. At least on the surface, they
Obey the Holy Lord as Lord.
Dongguan County, in a separate courtyard of the Gu family residence.
A tall, thin, handsome-cheeked young man stood with his hands behind his back. In front of him, an old man with a black beard bowed and spoke with a respectful expression.
The Gu family controls eight counties in Tianyuan Continent, and Dongguan County is only one of the eight counties.
"Is that Jing Yan still in Dan Kingdom?" The young man opened his mouth slightly and said in an indifferent voice.
"Exactly! I just got the news that Jing Yan has received the guest order from the City of Danling. The City of Danling has spread this news throughout the mainland, and it is obviously a clear stance to protect this Jingyan." The black-bearded old man lowered his head and answered.
.
"What is that old guy Hu Donghe thinking? Why does he treat Jing Yan so favorably?" The young man frowned.
This young man, named Gu Xinghe, is a direct descendant of the Gu family and has a distinguished status.
Not only that, he also has another identity, that is, he is the candidate patriarch of the Gu family. His great-grandfather is the supreme elder of the Gu family.
In a family like the Gu family, the candidates for the patriarch are selected through thousands of selections. The family will cultivate multiple candidates for the patriarch, and the future patriarch will be born from the candidates.
The Gu family also has a very strange rule, that is, each clan leader can serve for a maximum of three hundred years. Once the three hundred years are reached, no matter how outstanding the current clan leader is, he must step down and give way to a candidate clan leader.
Of course, the number of candidate clan leaders will not be large. Generally, within a period, there will be two or three candidate clan leaders in office at the same time.
This Gu Xinghe is one of the two candidate clan leaders during this period. Moreover, it seems that he is currently better than the other candidate clan leader. Most people in the Gu family believe that Gu Xinghe will become the next clan leader of the Gu family.
long.
"This Jing Yan is not simple. Although he is young, his abilities are extremely terrifying. Judging from the information we have obtained, Hu Donghe may have gained some benefit from him, so he protected Jing Yan in this way." Black Beard
The old man said slowly.
"Huh!" Gu Xinghe snorted coldly.
"Master, since that Jing Yan has received the guest order, we have to think carefully if we want to deal with him again. Hu Donghe's status is extraordinary, we should not offend him!" the black-bearded old man continued.
"Originally, we planned to wait until the boy left the Dan Kingdom. Now it seems that it doesn't make any difference whether he leaves the Dan Kingdom or not. Since he has the Dan Kingdom's guest order, no matter what, we can't take action openly.
"Gu Xinghe narrowed his eyes.
"How is our exploration of that ancient cave in Lanqu County going?" Gu Xinghe changed the subject.
"In a month or two, the exploration should be over." The black-bearded old man paused and said.
"Stop!" Gu Xinghe waved his hand, "Recall all our people from that ancient cave. There are a lot of good things in this ancient cave. Since there is no danger inside, I will go there myself.
Check it out!"
"Huh?" The black-bearded old man didn't understand what Gu Xinghe meant.
"Then Jing Yan, isn't he from Lanqu County? Let's go to Dan Kingdom to find him now. He is familiar with Lanqu County. Isn't it reasonable for us to let him take him to the Ancient Cave Mansion? In our capacity, please
If he does me a favor, will he refuse?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Gu Xinghe's mouth.
"It's feasible!" The black-bearded old man's eyes lit up and he nodded.
Dan Kingdom, splendid Dan Tower!
In the room on the top floor, the two people opposite Jing Yan were Gu Xinghe and the black-bearded old man.
"Are you Alchemist Jing Yan?" Gu Xinghe looked at Jing Yan and asked.
"That's right, I'm Jing Yan. What do you two want to see me for?" Jing Yan also looked at Gu Xinghe.
He already knew the identity of this person. He was a descendant of the Gu family of the seven great aristocratic families, named Gu Xinghe. The old man beside Gu Xinghe had a restrained aura. At first glance, he was not an ordinary strong man. He should be the person responsible for protecting Gu Xinghe.
"I am Gu Xinghe, the candidate patriarch of the Gu family. This is Mr. Yin!" Gu Xinghe introduced himself first, and then pointed to the black-bearded old man beside him.
Hearing Gu Xinghe's words, Jing Yan's heart moved slightly.
He had received news from Zhou Shangyun that the Dark Night organization was said to have a background from the Gu family. The leader of Dark Night in Lanqu County was called Mr. Yin. And the person next to Gu Xinghe was called Mr. Yin. After a slight change of thought, Jing Yan understood,
There must be some connection between the two.
Jing Yan said nothing, waiting for Gu Xinghe to continue speaking.
"We came here specifically to find you, Jing Yan."
"We know that Alchemist Jing Yan has extremely outstanding abilities in alchemy. He won the first place in this alchemy ceremony and ranked first on the Rookie Alchemy King List. Our Gu family believes that Alchemist Jing Yan is a rare alchemy genius. So.
, we want to cooperate with Alchemist Jing Yan." A smile appeared on Gu Xinghe's face.
"Oh? How to cooperate?" Jing Yan also smiled.
"We hope that Alchemist Jingyan can refine elixirs for the Gu family. Our Gu family can purchase all the elixirs refined by Alchemist Jingyan. Of course, our Gu family will also provide protection to Alchemist Jingyan. As long as we get the elixirs from our Gu family
Protect, Alchemist Jingyan, you don’t need to worry about being disturbed by other forces, Alchemist Jingyan can put all his attention on the way of alchemy."
"I believe that with the support of my Gu family, Master Jing Yan will definitely become a ninth-level alchemy king in the future." Gu Xinghe spoke with a sense of confidence.
This kind of confidence is not deliberately pretended, but radiates from the heart.
"Mr. Yin, please tell me too!" Gu Xinghe turned sideways and said to Mr. Yin beside him.
Mr. Yin chuckled, "Alchemist Jing Yan, the leader of An Ye in Lanqu County, died in your hands?"
Mr. Yin was more direct.
"That's right." Jing Yan nodded.
If An Ye is really a killer organization controlled by the Gu family, then Jing Yan will not be surprised. The Gu family found out that he was the one who killed Mr. Yin. Therefore, there is no need for him to deny it.
