The man and woman in the pagoda were Gu Luolin's biological parents. Just their names alone could make the rulers of the three races tremble in fear — Gu Xuande and Qing Li.
There were so many Emperor Realm experts outside because this was the Gu Clan.
"Why did you ask him to come over? Are you interested in him?"
Gu Xuande furrowed his brows as if he was jealous. If an outsider saw his expression, their jaws would definitely drop. He was already a half-step Transcendence expert, but he still looked like a little boy.
"Why would I be interested in him? He's just a little boy." Qing Li chuckled. "But Little Rong is so beautiful. Her son should be a little handsome too."
"See, you're interested in him!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Xuande made a series of shocking movements!
Arms crossed! Mouth pouting! Eyes widening!
…
The leader of the Gu Clan, who was old enough to be an ancestor, actually showed such an expression and made such movements in one go. It seemed like he did it often.
"Alright, I'm just joking with you. I wanted to ask him to come over because I wanted to meet him. To be able to enter the Transcendence tomb, he has to be at least in the Ruler Realm. With his realm, he should come over. Moreover, he's Little Rong's son. It's normal for him to return to the clan! "
"Is that so?"
"Of course, it's also because he's the Emperor Star. Our Gu Clan has to interact with him."
Gu Xuande's expression softened a little, so Qingli quickly smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
"I like you the most."
"That's more like it."
Gu Xuande touched his face and chuckled. Suddenly, he waved his hand, and a barrier appeared in the room, enveloping the entire room.
The silly smile of a young man who just had his first awakening of love disappeared from his face, replaced by a solemn expression that should have appeared on his body.
"Did you find anything in the God Clan?"
"Of course, and it's a big one."
Qing Li lost her previous naivety.
To be honest, both Gu Xuande and Qing Li's expressions now belonged to them. Whether it was in terms of their status, or their experience, it was all because of their status.
"Tell me!"
"No, the information is too strong. It's better to call eunuch over to discuss it. I've sent someone to inform you before I came. If you're not in seclusion, you should be here soon. "
"You wanted to see Ye Zichen because of this news?"
"I guess so!"
"My heart is itching!"
"I won't tell you either." All of a sudden, Qing Li turned into a little girl again. She drew circles on Gu Xuande's chest with her finger. "Oh right, since you know that Luo Lin isn't in the clan, why did you ask the servants to look for her?"
"Miss has been lost for so long and they don't even know. I'll punish them a little!"
"You're really bad!"
The beautiful woman hammered the man's chest, and the middle-aged man took the opportunity to grab the beautiful woman's hand and hold her in his arms. The scene didn't look like that of a parent at all. Instead, it looked like a couple who had just fallen in love.
…
…
…
Rumble.
The passageway behind the white painting opened once more. Ye Zichen removed his hand from the painting, twisted his neck, and walked into the passageway.
At that moment, Yuchi Kong and Huangfu Youming had already disappeared from the room. However, the bloodstain in the corner of the wall was so eye-catching that it was impossible to ignore it.
It wasn't Ye Zichen's blood!
Ye Zichen glanced at the bloodstain, then walked into the passageway without looking back.
The stairs of the passageway were very long, and the slope was very steep, causing people to feel dizzy when they looked down. The entire passageway seemed to be filled with the elements of the five elements. With every step Ye Zichen took, he could feel the density of the elements increase exponentially.
"Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine!"
That was the number Ye Zichen said when he walked down the last step.
It was the number of steps. From entering the passageway to walking down the stairs, it was a total of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps.
The moment he walked down the stairs, he noticed that the density of the elements had reached an extreme level.
It was a sea of the five elements. The density of the elements was so dense that they were practically solid, and he could even reach out and grab them.
There was a spacious plaza at the bottom of the stairs, which had countless towering stone pillars on it.
The arrangement of the pillars was very strange. It looked like some sort of formation, but also like an altar.
"Is that Brother Ye?"
Someone called out hesitantly in front of him. Ye Zichen looked towards the source of the voice and saw Gou Monan appear behind a pillar with Gu Luolin in his arms.
Gou Monan's eyes were filled with joy as he quickly walked towards them.
"Brother Ye truly is a man of fortune!"
"Brother Monan, you speak too seriously," Ye Zichen smiled. He looked at Gou Monan, who no longer seemed to be injured. "Brother Monan, have you recovered from your injuries?"
"It's all thanks to the pills, Brother Ye!"
"No worries, Brother Monan only got injured in order to defend against Yuchi Kong and the others, so these pills aren't much. But Brother Monan, you've really moved me. We've already come this far, but Brother Monan hasn't gone off to search for fortune, and instead waited for me at the entrance. You've really made me … "" Brother Ye opened the passageway, and Brother Ye stayed outside to save us. How could I, Gou Monan, take advantage of you like that? Why didn't I wait for Brother Ye before searching for fortune on my own? What's more, there are other people in the passageway. My cultivation is low, so it might be more dangerous for me to search for fortune by myself.
It'll be much safer for the three of us to travel together after the lady wakes up, "Gou Monan said seriously.
"Brother Monan is truly righteous!"
Ye Zichen cupped his hands, then took Gu Luolin from Gou Monan's arms.
Ye Zichen could feel that Gu Luolin was still breathing, so he relaxed slightly and looked towards Gou Monan.
"She still hasn't woken up?"
All of a sudden, an apologetic smile flashed across Gou Monan's eyes.
"She did, but she wanted to save you after waking up. I know that Brother Ye is a righteous person, so I couldn't let her be in danger, so I knocked her out again. Please don't blame me, Brother Ye!"
"How could I!?"
Ye Zichen suddenly took a few steps back with Gu Luolin in his arms. His eyes flashed with a strange smile as he looked at the righteous Gou Monan. "I'm already very grateful that Brother Monan didn't kill her. What's more, you only knocked her out. Or rather, you didn't knock her out, but used some sort of method to make her unable to wake up for a short period of time. Or perhaps, only you can wake her up. Brother Monan, if the latter is the case, can you please spare her life for the sake of us?
We've been traveling together for so long, and on account of this little girl's innocent and unaffected nature, I'll let this little girl live. "
