The top of Longshan Mountain.

The huge palace is bleak and cold, empty. Like its owner, he is not angry at all.

The breeze blew and lifted the curtain, and an old man could be seen reclining on the dragon carving bed. His hair was gray, his face was like a tree, and there was an indescribable dead silence all over his body. Who would have thought that this is the current ancient emperor, the ninety-five supreme who showed his might and intimidated the Quartet at the birthday banquet a month ago.

"Father!"

Gu Xuan came to the bed with a wooden plate. Inside the wooden tray is a white fruit with an alluring fragrance.

"It's a jewel...... The white mother fruit, also known as the divine fruit, is rumored to have the power given by the gods, and taking one can make ordinary people reborn, and the effect is magical! ”

Gu Xuan went to great lengths to get this white divine fruit, just as Ma Wenfang speculated, to give it to his father. Heal the other person's weakened body.

The ancient emperor seemed to be in a fugue, unaware. After a long time, Fang seemed to react, turned his head with difficulty, glanced at the fruit in the wooden plate, and said in a hoarse voice: "Medicine doctors don't die!" No matter how miraculous this fruit is, it is of no use to me...... Don't waste it, keep it for Lie'er! ”

"Father!" Gu Xuan was anxious after hearing this. I wanted to say it, but I was stopped by the ancient emperor waving his hand.

"Help me up!"

This Gu Emperor seemed to have been lying in bed for too long. Struggling at the moment, trying to sit up. He looked so weak, and with all his might, he still couldn't sit up. In the end, he had to turn to his favorite daughter for help.

Gu Xuan hurriedly stepped forward to help. She could feel that her father's body was extremely weak, that he had run out of oil and that he was not far from death. His face was gloomy, his heart was sad, and tears couldn't help but roll in his eyes.

"This is my father's fate, and no one can change it...... Good daughter, don't be sad...... If you do this, my father will be uncomfortable! ”

The ancient emperor caressed his daughter's cheek, and his tone was kind and full of love. Gu Xuan couldn't hold back any longer, hugged him and cried loudly.

The father and daughter are deeply in love, snuggling together, and sighing for a long time. Until there was a sound of footsteps.

"Father!"

"Your Majesty!"

The three people who came were Gu Lie and the two elders of the Inner Court.

"You're here."

Under Gu Xuan's support, the ancient emperor turned over and got out of bed, and stood up tremblingly. As if he didn't want people to see his dying and weakened appearance, he shook his hand and took a pill from his bosom, and he wanted to take it.

"Father!" Gu Xuan's face changed. She knew what this pill was, the secret medicine of the inner court, once consumed, it could stimulate all the potential of the human body in a short period of time. But after the effect of the drug is over, the person who takes it will definitely die.

"Things haven't gotten to despair yet...... Father, daughter will definitely find a way to save you! ”

Gu Xuan shouted to stop it, and also wanted to take away the pill from the ancient emperor's hand.

"Xuan'er!"

But seeing that the ancient emperor changed his face with kindness, he shouted: "Time is running out...... If we delay, you and I will become Gu sinners! ”

Gu Xuan's expression darkened and lowered his head. She understood what her father meant, and she knew what the other party was going to do. For the sake of the Gu family's great cause, she can't stop it, and she can't stop it.

"It's all fate!"

The Ancient Emperor looked at his beloved daughter, and his tone changed from stern to gentle, "What my father has to do now is to make the Gu Clan's inheritance immortal...... And you, as the strongest of the Gu clan, must do your best to help protect the people of the clan and protect the foundation of my Gu clan for thousands of generations and pass it on forever! ”

"My daughter knows." When Gu Xuan said this, she raised her head and looked at the white-haired old father in front of her, there was no sadness in her eyes, only firm faith.

"Good! This is my good daughter! ”

The Ancient Emperor smiled with satisfaction. Then he raised his head and took the pill in his hand. At most, in half an hour, his face, which was originally as thin as a tree, began to glow with strange blood. The spirit was great, and even the strength had recovered a lot, and without support, he paced in front of Gu Lie.

"Lie'er, come on...... Father Emperor wants to pass on your Gu Clan's biggest secret today, the Heavenly Machine Bureau! ”

The Ancient Emperor turned and walked towards him. Gu Lie Gu Xuan and the two elders of Xuanji followed. Not long after, they came to a study, located in the backyard of the dormitory, in a remote but extremely well-guarded location. There are golden-armored warriors on the outside, and black shadows flickering inside. It's all a gathering of masters.

Walk in. Come to a screen. But I saw that the ancient emperor stretched out his hand and put it on a bulge on the side and pressed it gently.

The sound of a 'click' machine sounded. The seemingly intact screen splits in two, revealing a stone door. The shape of this door is simple, and there is a dragon head relief at the position of the door knocker, which is vivid, like a guardian saint.

The ancient emperor kept moving, took out a token from his arms, and stuffed it directly into the mouth of the dragon head relief. The sound of the machine running sounded again, and the stone door 'clicked' open, revealing a secret room.

The secret room was small and could only accommodate five or six people. However, the four walls are all made of fine iron, which is exceptionally strong. After entering, the ancient emperor casually put his hand on a joystick-like rocker arm on the side and pressed it hard. Suddenly, the entire chamber began to shake and sink downward.

"Lie'er, the Heavenly Machine Bureau was established by the ancestor emperor himself, and after eight generations, it is the biggest core secret of my Gu clan...... So far, counting you, the number of people who know about the existence of the Heavenly Machine Bureau is limited to the five people here! ”

The chamber sinks. The ancient emperor said that he would introduce this secret place to his heir.

Click!

It's only a dozen seconds. The chamber stops sinking. The portal opened, and a huge hall appeared before everyone's eyes.

The radius is 10,000 meters, and it is extremely wide. Iron chains similar to ropeways are interspersed in the air, and closed iron boxes are transmitted back and forth from time to time. Below, there were hundreds of people in black who were busy, some of them collecting iron boxes and taking out letters and recording them. Some organize the material and send it for transmission.

"The Tianji Bureau is established in the hinterland of Longshan and is divided into nine layers... This first layer of Heavenly Hidden is the hidden place of the inner court, and they are all elites selected from the side branches of my Gu clan, in addition to guarding the previous ancient emperors, they also have important responsibilities such as collecting intelligence, induction, and sorting! ”

The ancient emperor introduced in detail, looked at Gu Lie, and said in a deep voice: "The emperor is in charge of the world, and he must have his own eyes and ears...... And the hidden guards of the inner court are the eyes and ears carefully cultivated by the emperors of my Gu clan, with them, you can easily know the affairs of the world...... Even any of your courtiers, who spoils his wife and concubine when he sleeps at night, and what pillow words he says, can be known in great detail through hidden guard reconnaissance! ”

Gu Lie is a rin. He could understand the meaning of his father's words, and he also understood the importance of this hidden guard in the inner court, which was irreplaceable.

"I, am I on the guard watch list too...... If that's the case, I have a close relationship with Xiaobao, and I have a private relationship behind my father's back...... Wouldn't my father have long had insight into all of this! ”

When Gu Lie's heart was shocked. The ancient emperor was on the side, as if he could see his son's thoughts, and faced the hidden guards who were busy collecting information from all sides, and said loudly: "From today onwards, there is only one master for you, and that is him...... My son of Gu Jiong, succeeded as the ninth Gu Emperor, Gu Lie! ”

"See His Majesty the New Emperor!"

The hidden guards, who were originally busy and didn't even stop when the ancient emperor came, all knelt on the ground at this moment, shouting to meet the new master.

"This ...... Father's ...... I ......"

My father is still around. The hidden guards paid such a big salute to worship, which made Gu Lie at a loss, and he didn't know what to do.

"This is only the first layer of the Heavenly Machine Bureau, and there are eight layers below, all of which are where my Gu Clan's secrets are...... In the future, it's all up to you! ”

The Ancient Emperor smiled faintly. Immediately pressed the mechanism, the stone door closed, and the chamber continued to sink.
