CHAPTER XLV

There was no word all night, and early the next morning, Gu Xing was summoned by the patriarch Gu Tianxiang. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The family council hall is located in the core of the family, along the road, five steps and one sentry, ten steps and one post, and the guards are very strict. Among them, Gu Xing found that the strength of many guards was not inferior to the elite hunting team in Gujia Town, and their overall strength was not much stronger than that of the guards in Gujia Town.

This is the real foundation of the Gu family! Although the Gu family town is precious, it is actually just a branch of the family, and those who really live in it are all outside the family. It's just that the connection between this branch and the main family is still very close.

In the council hall, Gu Xing once again saw his titular grandfather, the current patriarch of the Gu family.

The old man in front of him was very angry, not angry but mighty, high according to the patriarch's position, his eyes were like electricity, even if ordinary people just glanced at him, they had a chilling feeling, and their intuition seemed to be a little shorter. Coupled with the two uncles sitting on both sides of the table, as well as several family elders, an amazing momentum came to the face.

"Gu Xing has seen the patriarch. This kind of momentum frightened the ordinary family boy, but it didn't mean much to Gu Xing, who was born with a superhuman soul, he was calm and calm, and stepped forward to give a slight salute.

"Hmm!" Gu Xing looked at Gu Tianxiang at the same time, Gu Tianxiang was also looking at him, the handsome and confident and introverted boy in front of him made him unable to connect with the thin and slightly cowardly boy in his memory. It seemed that he remembered that the last time he saw him was five or six years ago.

"You've done a good job of repelling the Shadow Village's attack this time. Gu Tianxiang sighed secretly, this is also his grandson?!, but why can't he feel a trace of closeness?

"To defend against foreign enemies, we should divide what we should. Gu Xing's heart was equally complicated, even if he was in the same village, he hadn't seen this grandfather for several years before. The last impression in my heart seems to have been blurred.

"You're right. Gu Tianxiang sighed again, originally he was still happy that his grandson, who had always ignored him, could also become a talent, but after feeling the estrangement in Gu Xing's tone, this joy suddenly faded a little. "Tell the old man, what do you want? ”

"I don't have anything I want..."Gu Xingleng was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly. He wanted to say, I need the Yuan Stone, I need the Demon Beast Core, or the elixir is not bad, but in the face of this grandfather who has never admitted his identity, he can't say anything.

"How is your cultivation now?" Gu Tianxiang once again felt the strangeness in Gu Xing's words, and his heart became more and more uncomfortable.

"It should be going well, right?" Gu Xing said vaguely with a strange feeling. It is said that it is reasonable for grandpa to probe his grandson's cultivation, but he feels so strange.

"It's good if it goes well. Gu Tianxiang wanted to laugh in his heart, he had practiced hard for three years, and only then could he be promoted to the third layer of quenching, was this kind of cultivation considered smooth?" "Since you don't particularly want it, then the old man is in charge, and your welfare benefits will be raised to the level of the core disciple of the family, and all the cultivation resources are equivalent to the core disciples." ”

"Father, such a reward is too much, isn't it?" Gu Chengyang's face changed slightly and objected. You must know that in the past, Gu Xing's treatment was only the lowest level of foreign clansmen, which was several levels worse than his core disciples. If this were to elevate him all at once, it would be a step to the sky.

Gu Xing's expression moved, and his eyes swept his uncle obliquely. Gu Chengyang's face is very similar to Gu Ruochen, with a dignified appearance, a warm smile, and a kind of detachment that everything is not in his heart, but the color in his eyes reveals his heart.

"Where has it been?" Gu Tianxiang snorted coldly, glared at Gu Chengyang fiercely, and said: "As Feng Yang's eldest son, he should be treated as a direct clansman, but there was a delay in the past, and now it is just a promotion, with the credit he has made this time, shouldn't it?"

"This..."Gu Chengyang was silent, he didn't want to see Gu Xing rise, and he hoped to use Gu Xing to suppress Gu Fengyang, but now it seems that this idea is afraid that it will not work.

"With the ability shown by this kid, it is reasonable to be promoted to a core disciple. Next to him, several family elders with white hair bowed their heads slightly and said in agreement.

"Thank you, Patriarch. Gu Xing bowed slightly, not only did his monthly benefits increase greatly, but the treatment of the core disciples, and the cultivation resources he obtained every month suddenly increased a lot, and even the Quenching Body Pill could be obtained. And the most important thing is that the beast meat of the two-star demon beast is already a daily supply, and there is no need for Gu Xing to spend time looking for it.

If it had been in the past, this kind of treatment would have been enough to make him excited, but now, his harvest in a few days in the mountains can be worth half a year's benefits for the core disciples, and this thought will be light.

"You don't seem to be very happy?" Gu Tianxiang, as the patriarch of the Gu family, controls tens of thousands of people, and can be said to have read countless people, seeing that Gu Xing is not at all silent, with a breezy appearance, he knows that this reward is actually not in his eyes.

Gu Xing was silent.

"Hmph, from beginning to end, you only call the old man the patriarch, and you seem to have forgotten that you are still the grandson of the old man?" Gu Tianxiang's face sank and said coldly.

Gu Xing was silent again, he didn't resent anyone, he just wanted him to call grandpa, but he couldn't say it.

"That's it, there are some hidden secrets in this, but it has nothing to do with your little doll, after all, the old man has been harsh on you over the years, and it is natural that you have some resentment in your heart. Gu Tianxiang smiled self-deprecatingly and asked, "Okay, the old man will give you a compensation today, I heard that you have a good relationship with the core disciple Gu Feiyu?"

"Huh?" Gu Xing heard this, and felt a little bad in his heart. Ever since his father suddenly said that he was going to marry himself and Gu Feiyu, he had always had a faint worry in his heart. However, in recent months, the matter has not been resolved, and he has put his mind at ease, thinking that his father is just talking casually, and it will be over after that.

But at this time, from the mouth of the patriarch Gu Tianxiang, he suddenly mentioned his relationship with Gu Feiyu, which couldn't help but remind him of his father's plan.

"Father, are you going to..."Gu Chengyang was also nervous, he was also vigilant when he heard this, and interjected.

"I have also seen this girl Gu Feiyu, she has excellent appearance and extraordinary talent, she is a rare talent in the family, and she is more than enough to match you. It's better to let the old man call the shots and set this family business for you. Gu Tianxiang ignored it and said with a light smile.

"Well, that's really the case. Gu Xing couldn't smile bitterly, he thought that this matter had passed, but he didn't expect his father to say that he had moved the patriarch to come forward to propose marriage, if he agreed, maybe the matter would really be done. However, even if the patriarch comes forward, there are not a few people who oppose this family business, right?

"No, I absolutely disagree. Sure enough, without waiting for Gu Xing to speak, several elders had already agreed and stood up against it. Among them, in addition to Gu Chengyang, the biggest reaction was a family elder.

"Why?" Gu Tianxiang frowned and asked coldly.

"Gu Feiyu is extremely talented, she can be described as the proud daughter of the family, how can he, a martial arts waste, be worthy of her?" Gu Chengyang's face changed slightly, and he said strongly.

"Being able to command four Quenching Body Realm clansmen, kill several Qi Cultivation Realm thieves one after another, and even lead more than twenty family guards to kill fierce thieves several times his own, such a person is still a martial arts waste?" Gu Tianxiang asked rhetorically.

Gu Chengyang choked when he heard this, and his face suddenly turned red. With Gu Xing's performance in the face of the thieves of the Shadow Village, it is categorically that it can no longer be regarded as a waste of martial arts.

"Anyway, I will never agree, Gu Feiyu has a good appearance and talent, and he is a good match for Ruohai. Moreover, if Hai had already had the intention of marrying, how could I watch my father marry him to someone else. ”

"Ruohai?" Gu Tianxiang couldn't help frowning, although Gu Xing's performance was good, it was nothing more, unless he could show a stronger cultivation talent, he could only be regarded as a wonder soldier in the family, and it could not be regarded as a hole card. However, Gu Ruohai, who is extremely talented, is the number one master of the younger generation of the family, whether it is cultivation or martial arts potential, he is far more than Gu Xing, who is not obvious, and he is a real genius in the eyes of the family.

"Didn't Ruohai marry the Fang family?" After hesitating for a moment, Gu Tianxiang suddenly thought of something.

"Ruohai has always liked Fei Yu Nan Nizi, but because of his family affairs with the Fang family, he has not been able to speak, but he has already asked me to marry Fei Yu as soon as he marries the eldest lady of the Fang family. Gu Chengyang said in a low voice.

"Ridiculous!" Gu Tianxiang shouted angrily when he heard this. If it weren't for Gu Fengyang's words, he might have been able to fulfill Gu Ruohai, after all, on the Yuanwu Continent, three wives and four concubines are also commonplace. However, since Gu Fengyang has spoken first, he is already a powerhouse in the half-step Yuan Wheel Realm, as if he is the strongest person in the family, even if he is the patriarch, he is not willing to easily go against his will.

"I'm sorry!" The family elder who insisted on opposing couldn't help but burst into a rage at this time, and said angrily: "You are all delusional, Fei Yu is the most outstanding genius in our lineage, whether it is to marry this former little waste, or to make a second room for Gu Ruohai, it is impossible, you all give me death as soon as possible!"

"Elder Feng, don't worry!" Gu Tianxiang stroked his long beard, smiled lightly and said, "Ruohai's kid is indeed a little whimsical, but this kid in front of him is sincere. Some time ago, Fei Yu was seriously injured, and even injured the origin, and his cultivation was almost unsafe, and the family pharmacists were helpless, but this kid spared no expense and cured it with a bottle of precious medicine. ”
