Chapter Seventy-Three: Joining Forces to Experience
But such a thought disappeared in an instant, Gu Lanyi hugged his son tightly, and accelerated more and more to refine the complete detoxification pill as soon as possible. It seems that she is really going to go to the Dark King's Palace, which is the only place where she can gather all the medicinal herbs.
Just as Gu Lanyi had just made up her mind, someone came to report that the fifth son of the Xia family was here, and the head of the family asked her to hurry up.
"Fifth son, Xia Yan?" Gu Lanyi was a little surprised, what was he doing here, could it be that he came to propose marriage again?
"He still dares to come, I'll go and chop him!"
Someone actually thinks about the mother of the little young master, and she is tired of life, right?
Glancing at his wings, Gu Lanyi warned: "Go away, it's none of your business, maybe someone is here to give me a gift." As soon as she remembered the last time Xia Yan and Ji Wuya brought so many dowries, her eyes lit up.
It's not too much to give a gift, just collect the money!
Who knows, this time Gu Lanyi went to the main hall, but he didn't just see Xia Yan. The Gu family, including Gu Hongkai, and even a group of young juniors were all in the same place, and she was really surprised.
"Why is everyone here?" Gu Lanyi was also unreasonable, and when he saw that the seats were full, he walked straight to Gu Feiyan.
"Uh, second sister, you can sit here with me. Gu Feiyan got up unwillingly and stood behind in a sneering manner.
Damn, this stinky woman...... Forget it, she can't afford to mess with her.
Xia Yan sat in the third position on the left side, and when he saw Gu Lanyi coming, he suddenly smiled brightly: "Miss Gu Er is here, I haven't seen her for many days, Miss Gu Er has become beautiful again, it's really more fancy, like a shock." I specially brought a small gift below, I hope you like it. ”
As he spoke, he moved his hand, and an extra delicate white jade box was sent to Gu Lanyi.
Seeing that Xia Yan gave Gu Lanyi another gift, several girls from the Gu family suddenly turned red, and Gu Feiyan stared at it directly, and her jealous fingers wrinkled her skirt.
When the white jade box was opened, a brilliant rainbow light shot out, and inside it turned out to be pearls the size of a thumb, but they were colorful and tempting.
"It's ......"
"Cai Ling Dan, it's Cai Ling Dan!" Someone suddenly called out.
Xia Yan introduced earnestly: "This is the new color elixir from Yuzhen Building, it's not worth much, but it tastes good, I think Miss Gu Er is usually busy with business, and it is estimated that she doesn't have time to pay attention to these, so I want to buy it for you to taste." ”
Gu Lanyi's eyes moved, pinched one, and suddenly felt a cool smell coming to his face. Elegant and fresh, with a sweet taste, and the appearance is so attractive, even she has a little curiosity.
Knowing that Gu Lanyi had never seen this thing, Gu Feiyan behind him immediately showed off: "Second sister, this Cailing Pill is not an elixir, it is actually a kind of sugar, specially developed by the chef of Yuzhen Building, and you have to buy 10,000 gold coins for a box." ”
Another girl from the Gu family also said: "I heard that the taste of each one is different, it's amazing." ”
"Oh, is that so?" Gu Lanyi was quite interested in this gift.
She has found a way to make money again, and she can even buy a box of 10,000 gold coins for candy, if she also studies it in the future, wouldn't it be equivalent to trading without capital and making a lot of money!
"The second sister hasn't even eaten the color elixir, hehe......"
A touch of disdain flashed in Gu Feiyan's eyes, and he said proudly: "I've tasted it, the taste is very special, since Xia Gongzi sent it to the second sister, why don't the second sister hurry up and try it?"
As if saying that Gu Lanyi is a dirt bun and has never seen anything.
Gu Lanyi didn't realize it, and slowly closed the lid: "Well, go back and give Xiaotian a taste, it's still good." By the way, I don't know what is the important thing for Xia Gongzi to come here today, he shouldn't just send this candy, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Hongkai, who was at the top, immediately coughed dryly: "Second niece, today Xia Gongzi came here to discuss something big with the Gu family. As a member of the Gu family, you must also listen carefully, this matter is related to the ranking of the Gu family in the next eight major families, you can't slack off. ”
Regarding qualifying, Gu Lanyi still attaches great importance to it, but she is not for others, but for herself and her mother!
Whether she will participate in the qualifying tournament or not is still undecided, but her mother Gu Chaoyue has already decided that she must promote it. It's just that the Xia family sent Xia Yan over at this time, and she felt that something was wrong.
After all, Xia Yan is only the fifth son of the Xia family, and he is not the most important, how can he negotiate with the Gu family on behalf of the Xia family? The position of the next head of the Xia family can only be produced between the most outstanding Xia family's eldest son, Xia Changli, and the second son, Xia Xiao, Xia Yan ...... There is little hope.
"Xia Gongzi has something to say. Gu Lanyi remained silent and said lightly.
Xia Yan returned to his seat, glanced at the rest of the Gu family, cleared his throat and said, "I have already told Uncle Gu just now, everyone is still very interested, that is, I hope that our Xia and Gu families will join forces to improve their strength as much as possible in a limited time, so that they can achieve a better ranking in the qualifying competition in two months and win glory for the family." ”
"Oh, what kind of strength improvement method?" Gu Lanyi was slightly interested.
"Gather the people who want to participate in the qualifying match and go to the 'Dark King's Palace' to train!"
Xia Yan's tone of tone made the eyes of everyone in the Gu family shrink. Although they had heard it once before, they couldn't help but shudder when they heard the words 'Dark King Palace' again.
Fear, fear, vigilance, eagerness, greed, hope...... All kinds of complex emotions were intertwined, and everyone couldn't help but feel thrilled and frightened when they thought of the secrets and treasures that circulated in the most mysterious place in the whole continent.
The Dark King has always been synonymous with danger, but it also comes with great opportunity and wealth.
Once you get out of it, no matter what you bring out of it, you will get a huge benefit. Whether it is in terms of cultivation or money, it is almost unimaginable.
Just a piece of forging material that appeared at the Yun family's auction, just because it was related to the Dark King Palace, it was auctioned for a sky-high price of more than nine million spirit stones, which was simply an irresistible temptation for the junior of the Gu family who had never exceeded 100,000 gold coins in his pocket money.
With a straight face, a Xia family elder standing behind Xia Yan said in a deep voice: "Gu family master, we have received reliable news that the Yan family and the Yun family have joined forces and are ready to go to the extremely cold land to hunt the Ice Demon Dragon. ”
"Ice Demon Dragon, this is a seventh-level demonic beast, do they really have this ability?" Gu Taihua exclaimed in surprise.
The elder of the Xia family said: "The head of the Yun family has given the fire sword to the eldest son of the Yun family. ”
At this moment, even Gu Haoyan couldn't help it: "The Fire Thane Sword is a sixth-grade peak spiritual weapon, and the Yun family's treasure is comparable to the seventh-grade, and it specializes in restraining demonic beasts in extremely cold places." If that's the case, Yun Qingchen is like a tiger with wings, I'm afraid that the Yun family will gain a lot this time!"
The crowd couldn't help but be silent.
The genius of Yun Qingchen, the eldest son of the Yun family, has already spread all over the Yuncang Kingdom, and he is their fierce rival, even Shangguan Moru, the eldest son of the first family, is deeply jealous. This time, the Yun family joined forces with the Yan family again, which really posed a great threat to them.
At this time, a faint voice came: "It's not the second sister yet! It's good, I want to refine the Condensing Pill for Yun Dagongzi, so that Yun Dagongzi's cultivation will go further, and he will have a strong opponent in vain." ”
Everyone immediately looked at Gu Lanyi, and they all remembered the scene when her pill shop had just opened.
Gu Haoyan sneered: "The second sister has always only had money in her eyes, so how can she care about the interests of the family!"
Gu Hongkai's face suddenly sank: "Lanyi, this matter is indeed impulsive, just one million gold coins, but now it has brought unpredictable trouble to the family, you still have to be cautious in the future." Moreover, you also injured the fourth lady of the Yun family, and our festival with the Yun family is irreconcilable. ”
Such a tone is already equivalent to reprimanding Gu Lanyi again.
If she hadn't been expected to refine the pill for the Gu family, how could Gu Hongkai and the others stand her temper?
"The eldest brother and uncle said that I did something wrong, shouldn't I also close all the shops of the Gu family?"
Gu Lanyi was not angry, but was a little surprised: "Otherwise, if the Gu family's pill shop accidentally sells the goods to the people of the Yun family, wouldn't it be bad for the family?
Gu Hongkai's face was stunned by her, and he was speechless, but Gu Lanyi did not give up: "I don't think it's just the Yun family, what if there are also the Yan family, the Ji family, the Chu family, and the Shangguan family! It's nothing if you don't make a little money!"
Leisurely picked up the teacup, Gu Lanyi took a sip: "All the shops of the Gu family are closed, and it is the safest to sell them only internally." ”
Miss Gu Er is really humorous. Xia Yan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
"You, you, you ......" In front of outsiders, Gu Hongkai blew his beard angrily and stared, but he couldn't say anything, and in a blink of an eye, what he said was picked up by Gu Lanyi in the same way, and he taught him a lesson, which is really unreasonable.
"Uncle, am I not right?" Gu Lanyi smiled.
"Okay, without further aside, let's talk about qualifying. Gu Taihua in the second room hurriedly played a round and diverted the topic.
Xia Yan said eagerly: "Second Miss Gu, the Dark King Palace has always been mysterious and dangerous, but for the common interests of our two families, we must take a risk. As long as Miss Gu Er can help refine a large number of detoxification pills and healing pills, plus your eight-rank spirit sword, it is not hopeless for us to have an in-depth experience this time. ”
It turned out that this time it was the purpose of the Xia family's visit, mainly because she could provide pills for free.
Gu Lanyi didn't care about being used, he just looked at Xia Yan and asked, "It's not impossible for me to agree to participate, but may I ask Mr. Xia, what necessary help can you provide for this experience?"
Having already made preparations, Xia Yan suddenly looked proud: "What my Xia family is best at, you don't know it, right? My second aunt is from the Beast King Palace, and she has already prepared a hundred flying demon pet golden-winged eagles for our experience, plus three five-grade iron-walled demon apes. ”
