Chapter Twenty-Six: Departure

What kind of people are the three princes? It was judged by several demigods to be the most likely to become a true god in a few hundred years. How can such a promising candidate be a waste?

And that's exactly what happened.

In order to test Gu Lingzhi's heart, they deliberately locked the other party with their divine sense when Gu Lingzhi stepped on the council, and released some of the coercion of being a strong man.

Originally, in their expectations, even if Gu Lingzhi was not frightened, he would definitely react a little timidly.

But Gu Lingzhi showed what they expected, he was so humble and not arrogant, as if he didn't feel the coercion that fell on him. His back was straight, and his eyes were full of firmness. This made them wonder if the cowardice that this kid had shown before was all a joke?

If that's the case, then this kid's city is deep enough......

But that's good, a talented person who has no scheming will not be able to survive in a big family like the Gu family.

The mental activity of several elders is quite long, but the reality is only a few breaths. The Great Elder sitting at the head of the council hall had already nodded at Gu Lingzhi with an amiable face, and praised: "Okay, I didn't expect Gu Rong to have such an outstanding daughter, but she is much better than your sister." ”

The Great Elder was an old and kind old man, and the cultivation of the Spirit Saint Peak made his eyes sharp. When he said this, the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked kind.

Hearing this, Gu Lingzhi knew that the first hurdle of this meeting was passed. At that moment, he showed a decent smile and said: "Thank you for the compliment, the eldest sister of the Spirit Void is one year old, so naturally it can't be too bad, and let people laugh at her for having a useless sister." ”

After hearing Gu Lingzhi's words, several people felt satisfied again.

Although I don't know whether Gu Lingzhi's words are true or false, as a descendant of a big family, such an answer not only takes care of Gu Linglong's face, but also expresses the deep feelings of sisterhood. There is nothing wrong with it. This dialogue is also considered to be passed.

Several elders exchanged glances again, and they were even more satisfied with Gu Lingzhi's performance.

Then the Great Elder casually asked Gu Lingzhi a few questions, and Gu Lingzhi answered them one by one. The Great Elder had just talked about the main purpose of calling Gu Lingzhi today.

"In two days, you will follow the third prince to the Royal Academy, I hope that when you are outside, you must always remember your identity and don't weaken the name of my Gu family. ”

Gu Lingzhi bowed when he heard this, and said, "Please rest assured, Lingzhi will not let you down." ”

The Great Elder nodded with satisfaction: "It's great that you have this confidence. ”

After saying this, the Great Elder paused for a moment before continuing, "I don't know if you have ever heard the name of Beicheng Haoyue?"

North City Haoyue?

Gu Lingzhi was stunned for a moment, feeling that this name was somewhat familiar. After thinking for a while, I found a beautiful figure in my mind to match the name.

"But the Beicheng family, who is known as the genius alchemist, Beicheng Haoyue?"

Beicheng Haoyue was originally just a side branch of the Beicheng family among the four major families. Because he was less than ten years old, he awakened the two spiritual roots of wood and fire on his own, and was adopted by the patriarch of the Beicheng family. Later, he showed an excellent talent for alchemy, and at the age of thirteen, he was admitted to the alchemy department of the Royal Academy, and was one of the most outstanding geniuses of the younger generation of the Beicheng family, known as the pearl of the Beicheng family.

The reason why Gu Lingzhi knew her was because after becoming Xue Lingcan's concubine in the previous life, he only knew this person when he saw him obsessively looking at the portrait of Beichenghao more than once. It's just that...... Why did the Great Elder suddenly mention her?

As if seeing her doubts, the Great Elder explained, "That's right, it's her. I think that with the talent you have shown in alchemy, after entering the Royal Academy, you will definitely enter the Department of Alchemy. I have called you here to remind you to pay more attention to this person when you arrive at the Royal Academy. ”

Oh, could it be that Beicheng Haoyue would assassinate her?

Thinking of this, Gu Lingzhi couldn't help but be vigilant. Who knew that the Great Elder suddenly changed his words, snorted from his nostrils, and said disdainfully: "My Gu family has been weaker in the past few years, but it is not for others to manipulate at will. Although the four major families maintain a friendly relationship on the surface, the open and secret battles in private have never stopped. A few years ago, there was such a medicine refining wizard as Beicheng Haoyue, and in the gatherings of various ethnic groups, he was often taken out to show off. ”

The Great Elder's words resonated with several other elders, and there were gloomy expressions in their eyes to varying degrees.

"Lingzhi, this time I went to study at the Royal Academy, remember not to slack off. It is necessary to know that the younger generation of the same four major families is inevitably compared together. Even if his talent in refining medicine is not as good as that of the Beicheng family, it can't be too different. ”

Hearing this, Gu Lingzhi finally understood the reason why he was called, and he felt a little crying and laughing in his heart.

Unexpectedly, she came like a great enemy, and what she got was such a somewhat speechless situation.

The Gu family has not been as good as before these years, and Gu Lingzhi knows this. I also know that the Gu family has been more willing to spend money on the cultivation of the younger generation in recent years. After all, the strength of the younger generation is directly related to the subsequent development of the family.

Immediately said solemnly: "Please rest assured, the elders, the spirit will not live up to your expectations and disgrace the Gu family." ”

Having received the promise he wanted, the Great Elder nodded in satisfaction. Then he said some words of encouragement to Gu Lingzhi before letting him go.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and I don't know if it was because of Gu Rong's warning, Lin Yue'e and Gu Linglong unexpectedly didn't come to her for trouble.

On the morning of the third day, Rong Yuan's car appeared at the gate of the Gu family very punctually. Gu Lingyi, who had already put his luggage into the storage ring, stood at the door and waited refreshingly. Bidding farewell to Gu Rong, Gu Chengze and others who came to see them off, Gu Lingzhi got into the carriage with light and agile movements.

"Won't you take two of your subordinates to take care of you?"

Looking at Cuilian, who was already crying all over her face outside the carriage, Rong Yuan raised his eyebrows and said. A little surprised that Gu Lingzhi actually planned to go to the Royal Academy alone.

"No, I have hands and feet and I can take care of myself. ”

Cuilian, a slave who can turn her back on the original owner for a little profit, is to plant a fierce beast next to her with her, and she may turn against her master at any time. Such talents should stay in the Gu family and let Lin Yue'e clean it up.

Thinking of Cuilian crying bitterly and begging her to take the other party away the night before, Gu Lingzhi lowered her head and smiled, I don't know how Lin Yue'e will greet this former henchman after she leaves?
