"Old man Salt!"
Guo Shier took a step back while Falconer and Luo Zhan immediately stepped forward. Naturally, an Altar Master wouldn't fear two Peak Great Saint Masters. Old man Salt was surprised at first, but when he saw Guo Shier, his expression changed slightly as he took a step back, "You … it's you …"
Even now, old man Salt didn't know Guo Shier's name. The only thing he hated was that this fellow had stolen his sacrificial arm, causing his strength to drop by a lot. Because of this, he had a deep impression of Guo Shier. Even after two years of not seeing him, he could still recognize him at a glance.
The talisman gate flickered once more as two more people walked out.
Guo Shier couldn't help but smile. They were both familiar faces; one was He Daming, and the other was He Daming. Afterward, six more Great Saint Masters came out from the gate; they were the disciples of the Gu Crane clan.
Old man Salt took a few more steps back as he looked at the two with gritted teeth, "How long do you plan on following me for?"
He Daming sneered, "Once you go out into the wilderness, hehe, old man Salt, don't think that just because you have the protection of the laws, you will be able to escape!"
Guo Shier spoke, "Old man Salt, I didn't think that you would come to such a remote place. Are you planning on killing me again to silence me?"
Old man Salt carefully sized up Guo Shier with great shock. In just two years, he was already unable to see through Guo Shier. With a gloomy expression, he spoke, "This place is a dead end, if you have the ability, then follow me!"
He Daming stepped forward. He had also recognized Guo Shier and hastily bowed, "Hello, we meet again."
Guo Shier nodded, "You can continue, we will return to the Great Hidden Stronghold."
He Daming had seen Guo Shier at the auction before. Back then, he was a Great Saint Master, but now, he was already a Corporeal Altar Master. It had only been two years, yet a person could advance so quickly. This made Guo Shier even more mysterious. He spoke, "I still haven't thanked brother Guo for your help. On behalf of the Gu Crane clan, I would like to express my gratitude."
Guo Shier smiled, "There's no need to be so polite, brother He."
Nan You also stepped forward to greet him.
Old man Salt's expression darkened as he turned to a Great Saint Master and said, "Arrange a place for me! Prepare half a year's worth of supplies! "As long as he didn't leave the supply point, He Da Ming and He Da Niao wouldn't be able to make a move. As long as he didn't leave the place, He Daming and He Daming wouldn't be able to do anything.
Thus, Eccentric Salt kept wandering around the various supply points. Sometimes, he would even run to the Hidden Castle or the Great Hidden Castle, but he never went outside. This time, He Great Ming and He Great Bird had followed him, but they hadn't expected that this guy would unexpectedly run to this remote supply point, and still had an indifferent look on his face.
Looking at Old Eccentric Salt's departing figure, Crane Big Bird said fiercely, "I don't believe that you will stay at the supply point forever!"
Guo Shier didn't want to get involved in their feud, so he said, "We're going back to the Great Hidden Castle. Farewell."
"Let's meet again if we have the chance," said Crane Big Bird.
He Daming thought for a moment, then threw a communication talisman to Guo Shier and said, "If anything happens, you can get help from the Gu Heming Clan."
Guo Shi 'er didn't refuse. One more friend was one more way out. He understood this principle. He took the communication talisman, cupped his hands, and bade farewell. The Great Saint Master at the supply point activated the portal and allowed Guo Shi 'er and the others to leave.
The Great Saint Master at the place opened the gate and let Guo Shier and the others leave.
… …. Months passed. Guo Shier and the others went to the three Great Hidden Castles and countless other places to look for the people of the four ancient clans, but they couldn't find a single one. Only at this time did he realize that the places the four ancient clans went to were different from the places he went to.
The four of them sat in a small tavern in the Hidden Castle. In fact, this wasn't a tavern, but a place to eat. However, Guo Shier was used to calling this place a tavern. There was only meat soup and roasted meat inside, there was no alcohol.
The hidden fortress here was different from the Great Hidden Fortress. It was a relatively large piece of land floating in the air. Except for the large-scale defense array glyphs, all the buildings were built on the ground, which was different from the Great Hidden Fortress, which was built underground.
This tavern was a two-story building facing the street. Guo Shier and the others were sitting at a table by the window.
Nan Yu advised, "Twelfth, come to our Gunan Clan. It will be very difficult to find the person you are looking for here. The Hakone Maitreya Heaven is too big. Over the years, we have built so many hidden forts, but we still can't explore the whole place. We can only go to a few places in the Hakone Maitreya Heaven."
Guo Shier smiled bitterly. This was the third time Nan You had advised him to go to the Gu Nan clan. According to him, the Gu Nan clan was a super clan that had been established since the ancient times. They had a deep background and controlled a large part of the continent and secret territories. They were one of the local overlords.
Falconer and Luo Zhan didn't care about where they were going. As long as they followed Guo Shier, it would be fine. The two of them were professional madmen. Being able to advance, explore, and fight, the two of them were very satisfied. As for how far they were from their hometown, it wasn't a problem for the two of them to consider.
Guo Shier's soul fluctuated as he said, "A Handsome Old Man, do you think we should go to the Gu Nan clan?" He had been searching for a long time, and his heart was a little desperate. If they could find a member of the four great ancient clans, it would prove that they had been here. However, they couldn't find a single one, which proved that this was not the territory of the four great ancient clans.
A Handsome Old Man muttered to himself for a long time before saying, "Brat, I'm your Guardian Spirit, not your Military Advisor. Whether you want to go or not … it's up to you. Right, I'll give you a suggestion."
Guo Shier asked, "What is it?"
A Handsome Old Man said, "You ask him, what's the benefit of going? If there's no benefit, then there's no need to think about it. "
Guo Shier couldn't help but blush a little. This guy was too straightforward, asking for benefits the moment he opened his mouth. He said, "Forget it, I can't afford to lose this face."
A Handsome Old Man said, "Idiot, why would you go if there's no benefit?"
Guo Shier helplessly said, "After all, we're companions. My face isn't that thick."
A Handsome Old Man asked doubtfully, "What's a face?"
Guo Shier was flustered and exasperated. He simply couldn't communicate with this unscrupulous old man. His soul fluctuated, "Don't worry about face. Do you want to go or not? Let me think about it."
Nan You eagerly looked at Guo Shier. He really wanted to pull Guo Shier into the Gu Nan family. A two-layer altar professional was a top-notch professional in the Gu Nan family.
Guo Shier said, "Let's wait a little longer. I haven't thought it through yet."
Nan You could only force a smile. He knew that it was very difficult to recruit a top-notch professional for the family. However, he was still confident because he knew that these three were lost and couldn't find their way home. So, there was a high possibility that they could temporarily live in the Gu Nan family. They wouldn't stay in the Hakone Da Mi Heaven forever. This place wasn't suitable for them to live in.
Falconer said, "Actually, going to the Gu Nan family isn't a bad idea. At least we can settle down for a while. Then, we can try to find our way back."
Luo Zhan also said, "I don't mind. Going to the Gu Nan family to play is also good. Hehe." These two guys were often together with Nan You. Especially during the two years when Guo Shier was in closed-door training, the three of them had formed a very deep friendship.
Guo Shier looked at the two strangely. He didn't expect that Falconer and Luo Zhan would speak for Nan You. Since the two of them were speaking for him, he was a little hesitant. After a while, he said, "It's not impossible to go to the Gu Nan family. Nan You, you also know that we have to find our way home. So, we can't stay in the Gu Nan family for a long time."
Nan You immediately revealed a happy expression. He said, "Don't worry, the family won't restrict your freedom. It will only give you a title. If something happens to the family and you are here, then we will need your help. As for other matters … it's up to you. No family will have excessive requirements for top-notch professionals. The ancient families all have such rules. Don't worry."
Guo Shier murmured, "Ancient family … Ancient family … Why are they called ancient families?" He couldn't help but ask.
Nan You smiled and said, "Where I come from, those who can be called ancient families are generally established ten thousand years ago. Only after ten thousand years of inheritance can they be called ancient families. I don't know about other places, but in my place, the ancient families have a very deep foundation. For example, the Hakone Daimi Heaven is explored by all the ancient families. It's very difficult for ordinary families to enter. Even if they could enter, they would die."
"There are tens of thousands of families, but there are only a few dozen ancient families. Although the ancient families are few in number, their strength definitely surpasses the majority of ordinary families. I'm very lucky to be a member of an ancient family. Especially our Gu Nan family, which has been established for more than thirteen thousand and eight hundred years. It's a large ancient family with a long history."
Nan You's tone was very proud. He sincerely said, "Shier, come to our family."
Guo Shier's hair stood on end. He said, "Hey, don't be in such a hurry … I'll find some time to visit your family first. If it's interesting, I can temporarily join you." This guy's boasting made him feel a little unreliable.
Nan You revealed a happy smile and said, "Shier, Old Ying, Old Luo, welcome to the Gu Nan family."
Guo Shier said, "What's the hurry? I still want to find another natural rune in the Hakone Daimi Heaven."
Hearing this, Nan Yu's face turned bitter and said, "Natural talisman … that will be difficult."
Guo Shier said, "As long as you look for it, you can find it." If he could find another natural rune, he would be able to advance to the third layer of the altar. This thing was very rare. Every master of the altar wanted to get it.
A Handsome Old Man couldn't help but sneer. "Even if other masters of the altar got a natural rune, they wouldn't be able to use it to construct a layer of the altar. They would need special materials and methods, as well as some skills. The reason you could advance is because of Gumelion and me. Otherwise … with your current level, it's still a big question whether you could construct an illusory altar. "
A Handsome Old Man was used to attacking Guo Shier. If he didn't say a few sarcastic words, he would feel unhappy. After saying those sarcastic words, he would feel extremely happy.
Guo Shier smiled. He never took A Handsome Old Man's sarcastic words seriously. He knew that this guy had been suppressing his anger for many years. If he didn't vent it often, he might become an old pervert.
Nan You carefully asked, "Shier, where are we going next?"
Guo Shier said, "What's everyone's opinion? I'm not familiar with this place … "After saying that, he blushed. He had been in Hakone Dadi Heaven for so long, but he still didn't know what was going on.
Falconer pointed to the street below and said, "That's strange. There were three groups of people passing by. They were all in a hurry. What are they busy with?"
Luo Zhan was sitting by the window. He leaned against the window and shouted at a Great Saint Master who was walking by, "Hey, buddy, what happened?"
The Great Saint Master raised his head and glanced at him. He ignored him and ran away. Luo Zhan couldn't help but be angry. "How rude!"
Falconer laughed. "If someone called me like that … Hey, I wouldn't care. Hehe."
Luo Zhan said angrily, "I don't know him. I called him buddy … Oh, forget it …" He also knew that it was inappropriate. It seemed that the person's temper was not bad. In his hometown, "buddy" was a more affectionate address. Here, calling someone "buddy" was a bit of a disdain.
Nan You laughed. "Well, if it were me … I wouldn't care either. Haha."
Guo Shier said, "If you want to know why, let's follow them." He shouted, "Buddy, the bill."
The four of them came to the street and saw another group of people passing by. They followed closely behind and walked forward quickly. Guo Shier said, "There seems to be a small square in front. I remember it is a place where tasks are issued."
