Chapter 273: Heavenly Tomb Trial (3)
Outside the sky, Xiao Qing's residence.
Just as Concubine Ya and Xiao Qing were about to leave on the ninth floor of Tiance Mansion, Gu Yue had already learned that Xiao Qing had personally taken Concubine Ya to see Xiao Tiance.
At this moment, Gu Yue's hair was scattered on her shoulders in a mess, and her face was also pale, she knew in her heart what she was about to face.
At the same time, an emotion called regret continued to arise in her heart.
Yes, it's regret.
If she didn't listen to her grandfather Gu Dao and say that the Gu clan needed her help, although she was the wife of the patriarch of the Xiao clan and had a respected status, if there was no support from the Gu clan behind her, she would definitely not be able to sit in this position.
If he hadn't sent the resources that were enough to create more than a dozen Dou Sheng's powerhouses to the Gu Clan, if he had been able to make amends after knowing that he had aroused the dissatisfaction of the Xiao clan, instead of ignoring these voices just because he was the patriarch of the Xiao clan.
Could it be another case now?
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world.
Perhaps, if she was able to ask her to help send the people of the Gu clan into the Heavenly Tomb to seize the inheritance of the ancient emperor before, she herself could stand in the perspective of the patriarch of the Xiao clan and consider some more interests for the Xiao clan, perhaps, even if Xiao Tiance was dissatisfied with her nephew and daughter-in-law, Xiao Qing would not give up on her.
It can only be said that everyone needs to pay the price for their actions, as the saying goes, you will get melons when you plant melons, you will get beans when you plant beans, and the seeds in your own middle will one day sprout and harvest.
Whether you harvest beautiful flowers or weeds in your garden depends on what seeds you planted in the first place.
Obviously, Gu Yue did not harvest flowers, but harvested weeds all over the place.
"It's impossible, Brother Qing won't give up on me." Gu Yue muttered to himself.
After a long time, the confusion in Gu Yue's eyes dissipated, replaced by a firmness, and she shouted outside: "Come on, bathe and change clothes for Mrs. Ben." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
About an hour later, when Xiao Qing and Concubine Ya came down from the ninth floor of Tiance Mansion, they happened to meet Gu Yue, who had been waiting for a while, downstairs in Tiance Mansion.
"Brother Qing!"
When she watched Xiao Qing and Concubine Ya enter the team in pairs and walk out of the Tiance Mansion, a trace of hatred flashed in Gu Yue's eyes, but she just glanced at Concubine Ya coldly, and saluted Xiao Qing in a glutinous voice.
At this time, Xiao Qing was also stunned for a moment, after all, he had just come down from the ninth floor of Tiance Mansion, so he didn't know what had happened during this time.
Therefore, Xiao Qing was indeed surprised that Gu Yue appeared here.
"Yue'er, why are you here?" Xiao Qing nodded and asked.
Although he had decided in his heart to abolish Gu Yue, the patriarch's wife, he always had feelings for Gu Yue in his heart, so even at this time, Xiao Qing's attitude towards Gu Yue did not deteriorate, but it was the same before.
On the other side, Gu Yue did not answer Xiao Qing's words, but looked at Concubine Ya carefully, and after a while, she approached Concubine Ya, took the initiative to take Concubine Ya's hand and smiled: "Brother Qing, this is Concubine Ya, right?" ”
"Concubine Ya, I've seen the patriarch's wife." Concubine Ya saluted respectfully, even if she knew that she was about to replace Gu Yue and become the next patriarch's wife of the Xiao clan, as long as she did not succeed, she still needed to recognize her position.
On the side, Xiao Qing looked at Concubine Ya who was respectfully saluting, and was still very satisfied, unlike Xiao Tiance, Xiao Qing is a person who attaches great importance to rules, that is, Gu Yue, if someone else dares to send the resources of the Xiao clan to the Gu clan, I am afraid that I don't know how many times I have died.
Xiao Qing has always known about Gu Yue's sending the hospital to the Gu clan, but because of Gu Yue's other wives, he also wanted to see if Gu Yue could wake up.
It's a pity that after Gu Dao asked Gu Yue to help send the people of the Gu clan into the Heavenly Tomb to seize the inheritance of the Gu Emperor, Xiao Qing had no expectations for Gu Yue.
Now, Xiao Qing was very satisfied with Concubine Ya's attitude, and then said with a smile: "Yes, Yue'er, this is Concubine Ya, the actual person in charge of Tianji Building in the past few years, she has helped this seat deal with a lot of things, and she is very good." ”
Hearing this, Gu Yue felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and he couldn't help but have a trace of resentment in his eyes when he looked at Concubine Ya.
In other words, she is more jealous in her heart, in terms of appearance, Concubine Ya not only does not lose to her, but also has a slight advantage.
Moreover, as the wife of the patriarch of the Xiao clan, Tianjilou is the only force of the Xiao clan walking in the Douqi Continent, Gu Yue naturally knew about Concubine Ya for a long time.
It's just that Concubine Ya didn't come to the world at all, and she didn't have a chance to go out, even if it was a Hui Gu clan, there would be strong people from the Xiao clan around her, and those people were Xiao Qing's right-hand men, and she didn't dare to do things in front of these people.
Therefore, even if she knew about the existence of Concubine Ya, she had never seen it.
Now that he saw it, the sense of crisis in Gu Yue's heart could no longer be hidden.
"Whew!"
After suppressing his panic in his heart, Gu Yue hurriedly smiled and said, "I heard about the demeanor of the deputy landlord of Concubine Ya several years ago, but I only saw it today.
Sure enough, it's better to be famous than to meet, such a look, such a figure, and so good, it's really a blessing for three lives. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Qing couldn't help frowning, he heard the ridicule in Gu Yue's words, but it was not to mock Concubine Ya, but to mock himself, feeling that he was attracted to Concubine Ya because of her beauty.
However, without waiting for Xiao Qing to speak, Concubine Ya smiled and said modestly: "Madame has won the award, I can't afford to be praised by Madame like this." ”
"Deserve it, although it is the first time we have met, but I feel in my heart that you and Mrs. Ben are very close to each other."
Speaking of this, Gu Yue turned his head to look at Xiao Qing and said, "Brother Qing, people want to whisper something to Concubine Ya, can you lend Concubine Ya to me for a while?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Qing's brows furrowed again, although he had always thought that Gu Yue was kind-hearted, but if Concubine Ya and Gu Yue were allowed to stay together at this juncture, I was afraid that something would go wrong.
Moreover, judging from Gu Yue's mocking of herself just now, she should have guessed something.
Therefore, Xiao Qing shook her head and said, "Yue'er, forget it today, Concubine Ya just came from the headquarters of Tianji Tower today, and she is already tired when she thinks about it, and besides, she still has things to deal with tomorrow, let's wait until the Heavenly Tomb trial." ”
Yes, Xiao Qing refused, more things are better than less things, this is his way of doing things.
If it was Xiao Tiance, he might just remember to agree, and then see what tricks Gu Yue would play.
However, Xiao Qing did this, in addition to the idea of protecting Concubine Ya, more for Gu Yue.
He wasn't worried about what Gu Yue could really do to Concubine Ya, because before they left, Xiao Tiance not only gave Concubine Ya a pill to improve her strength, but also gave her a jade pendant.
That Jade Perry portrayed a grandmaster-level spirit gathering array, and before the aura of Jade Perry was consumed, even he, a half-emperor-level powerhouse, would not be able to hurt Concubine Ya in the slightest, let alone Gu Yue.
I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if, if Gu Yue really makes a move on Concubine Ya, at that time, even if he has a lot of likes for Gu Yue in his heart, it is impossible for him to tolerate Gu Yue.
On the side, Concubine Ya sighed, after all these years of training in the headquarters of Tianjilou, she is no longer the little girl who relied on her own appearance as a weapon in the Mitre auction house, so when Xiao Qing said this, she understood that Xiao Qing still had feelings for Gu Yue in her heart.
Subsequently, Concubine Ya also refused: "I'm sorry, madam, I'm too tired today, Concubine Yafei will come to visit Madame another day and listen to Madame's teachings." ”
In the final analysis, Concubine Ya is still kind and empathetic, but her refusal made Gu Yue directly tear off her disguise and said coldly: "What, Mrs. Ben can't please move you?" ”
"Presumptuous!"
At this time, after feeling the murderous aura emanating from Gu Yue's body, Xiao Qing was directly angry and shouted angrily.
It was this sound that almost scared Gu Yue into a thrill.
She turned her head to look at Xiao Qing in disbelief, looking at Xiao Qing's face with a complicated expression, hoping to see a trace of affection for her in Xiao Qing's eyes.
However, it was a good intention, but Gu Yue didn't cherish it, and Xiao Qing was of course angry.
Thinking of the things before the ancient road, Xiao Qing's momentum at this moment was unabashedly released.
If Gu Dao appeared in front of him now, Xiao Qing would not hesitate to kill Gu Dao directly.
"Whew!"
Gu Yue exhaled heavily, and let go of the hand that was holding Concubine Ya, although she had become a two-star Dou Sheng's powerhouse with the help of Xiao Qing over the years, she couldn't hold on to it in the face of Xiao Qing's powerful momentum oppression.
Moreover, judging from Xiao Qing's attitude, the matter has become a foregone conclusion, and no matter what she will do next, it is impossible to change.
Thinking of this, she glanced up in the direction of Tiance Mansion, and happened to see Xiao Tiance who was now by the window.
At this moment, Gu Yue was clear.
As long as Xiao Tiance is still in the Xiao clan for a day, the real controller of the Xiao clan can only be him.
Even if Xiao Qing had already become the patriarch of the Xiao clan, and Xiao Tiance did not care about the affairs of the clan after passing the position of the patriarch to Xiao Qing.
But as long as he is there, what he says casually, everyone in the entire Xiao clan will obey unconditionally, including those who have been wooed by her.
The reason is very simple, because this man has led the Xiao clan to this point since he took over the burden of the Xiao clan thousands of years ago, and his prestige, strength, wisdom, and everything have completely conquered everyone.
And after he was promoted to Dou Di, he became a well-deserved god in the hearts of the Xiao clan.
As long as he doesn't arrive, anyone who wants to shake the Xiao Clan, or wants to stir up the wind and rain in the Xiao Clan, will be in vain.
"I'm sorry, it's me Meng Lang."
Gu Yue forcibly suppressed the shock in her heart, and then apologized to Concubine Ya.
Seeing this, Xiao Qing's face softened a lot, and then said to her, "Go back first, have a good rest." ”
After that, Xiao Qing looked at Concubine Ya again, and said softly: "Let's go, Concubine Ya, this seat will take you to rest first, and by the way, I will explain to you some things that need attention." ”
"Yes, Lord." Concubine Ya saluted respectfully, and then saluted Gu Yue to say goodbye, and then left with Xiao Qing.
At this time, looking at the back of the two leaving, Gu Yue's silver teeth were about to be crushed, but after looking back at Xiao Tiance, who was still standing by the window, she never dared to do anything.
At this time, looking at the few people who had dispersed, Xiao Tiance just sighed, and saw Ling'er leaning over, jumping directly onto Xiao Tiance's shoulder, and also learning from Xiao Tiance's appearance, looking down.
"How did you get out?" Xiao Tiance asked with a smile, but his eyes never moved, just quietly looking at the scenery in the distance.
"Little sir, you are a little uneasy in your heart." Ling'er said with a smile.
"It's a bit unequal."
Thinking of what was about to happen next, how could Xiao Tiance's heart be calm?
After all, the Douqi Continent can be settled, but after going to the world, you must know that Xiao Yan is still very critical in the plot of the Great Domination.
Moreover, in this Heavenly Tomb Trial, there will be a bloody storm, and if it is not good, the entire ancient clan will be directly wiped out here.
At that time, what would Xiao Xuan think?
You must know that the reason why the Gu clan chose to surrender at the beginning, Gu Yuan clearly said that it was for Xiao Xuan's sake.
Once he waited for Xiao Xuan's retreat to end, but when he came out, he found that the Xiao clan had wiped out the ancient clan, would he feel sad? Kick oneself?
These are all things that Xiao Tiance needs to consider.
Therefore, when Xiao Qing decided to hold the Heavenly Tomb Trial, his heart began to be unsettled.
The other thing is Xiao Yan's matter, if there is no ancient emperor inheritance, he doesn't even have the qualifications to become the Yan Emperor of the Douqi Continent, let alone whether he will become the Yan Emperor of the Great Thousand Worlds and the Endless Fire Domain.
At that time, how much will the plot change, if in the end, because of Xiao Yan's butterfly, Mu Chen was not able to become the great master and failed to completely seal the Blood Demon Emperor, wouldn't the entire world be finished at that time?
Seeing him answer casually, his brows furrowed, Ling'er thought for a moment, and then said softly: "Little sir, all the troubles are just because of the lack of strength, if you become stronger, will there be no such troubles?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Tiance smiled, and then he shook his head and said: "The strength has become stronger, and it is indeed possible to solve part of it, but there are some things that cannot be solved by strength."
In the human world, feelings are the most complex thing, and no matter what level of strength they reach, there will be troubles and concerns. ”
"Then what can Ling'er do for you, little gentleman?" Ling'er asked with big bright eyes.
"Huh."
Xiao Tiance smiled, he was actually quite envious of Ling'er who had a pure heart, although this girl has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, but her mind has been very pure, even if she wants to recover her original power, there is still no change.
"No, Ling'er continues to study the spirit array, this little trouble is nothing at the moment."
