Gu Jinyang said, "Tang Ming is Tang Yu's father and Tang Bin's younger brother. He's a Three Star Venerable like the Patriarch and Madam."
Ye Xing was able to see through Gu Qingchen's problem and solve it. Gu Jinyang had placed all his hopes on Ye Xing. Therefore, even though it was the first time he met Ye Xing, he still told him about the Gu Clan's past.
Of course, this was also because Gu Jinyang thought that Ye Xing was a disciple of the Dark Moon Palace. He trusted Ye Xing a lot.
The Dark Moon Palace was a four-star force, one of the seven superpowers in Starry Crescent Land. It was on the same level as the Astral Palace behind the Astral Dynasty. In front of such a superpower, the Zhaixing Palace was nothing.
Therefore, since Ye Xing could see through Gu Qingchen's problem, Gu Jinyang believed that Ye Xing could solve Gu Qingchen's problem.
"Like the Gu Clan, the Tang Clan is a two-star force …!"
"…!"
Gu Jinyang explained again in detail.
Ye Xing finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.
The Tang Clan and the Gu Clan were two-star forces in Yuezhou. They were under the jurisdiction of the Zhaixing Palace, a three-star force.
Tang Bin of the Tang Clan had become a Seven Star Venerable Lord due to some fortuitous encounters. He had a prominent position in the Zhaixing Palace and became an elder, causing the Tang Clan's status to soar.
As a result, Gu Cangbei, who had married the Tang Clan's woman, also had a higher status in the Gu Clan because of his wife's prosperity. Moreover, he was somewhat dissatisfied with his brother, Gu Cangnan, as the Patriarch.
Therefore, one day when Gu Qingchen was ten years old, Tang Bin's younger brother, Tang Ming, came to the Gu Clan and said that there was an opportunity to become a mid-level Venerable in the Heavenly Flame Ancient Land. He went to the Heavenly Flame Ancient Land with Gu Cangnan and his wife and never returned.
After that, Gu Cangbei became the acting Patriarch. However, due to Gu Cangnan and his wife's high prestige in the Gu Clan, Gu Cangbei's authority was limited at first.
Two years later, news spread that Gu Cangnan and his wife had died in the Heavenly Flame Ancient Land. At this time, Tang Bin, an elder of the Star Plucking Palace, also came to the Gu Clan. Gu Cangbei asked Tang Bin to take Gu Qingchen as his disciple, but Tang Bin left a trace of his aura in Gu Qingchen's body, making it impossible for Gu Qingchen to break through to the Star Vortex Realm.
From then on, Gu Qing Chen's position in the Gu Family plummeted. As for Gu Cang Bei, with the support of his wife, Tang Yu, his power in the Gu Family grew.
By now, the majority of the elders in the Gu Clan had already sided with Gu Cang Bei. They were only waiting for Gu Qingchen to reach the age of sixteen. At that time, before Gu Qingchen had broken through to the Star Vortex Realm, Gu Cang Bei would officially become the head of the Gu Clan.
"Gu Qingchen saved my life. I have to help him break through to the Star Vortex Realm and ascend to the position of the Gu Clan's Patriarch." Ye Xing thought to himself.
In the following days, Gu Jinyang knew that it was impossible for Gu Qingchen to break through to the Star Vortex Realm. Hence, he did not let Gu Qingchen practice any cultivation techniques. Instead, he allowed Gu Qingchen to practice martial arts every day.
Gu Qingchen's comprehension was not bad. Furthermore, as the Venerable Nine Star, Gu Jinyang was more than capable of guiding Gu Qingchen in his cultivation of supreme martial arts. Gu Qingchen's martial arts attainments were not weak. Many of his supreme martial arts had reached the Great Perfection Realm.
Other than practicing martial arts every day, Gu Qingchen also brewed medicine for Ye Xing. Although it did not have much of an effect, Ye Xing did not refuse Gu Qingchen's kindness.
Time passed by. After a month, Ye Xing's injuries had recovered quite a bit. He could already get out of bed and walk around.
Furthermore, Ye Xing could use part of his astral energy. It could be said that he had recovered some of his strength.
As Gu Qingchen's sixteenth birthday approached, his days in the Gu Clan became more and more difficult. In this month, he was beaten a few more times. Almost every time, he was bullied by Gu Qingchen.
After he could get out of bed and walk around, Ye Xing left the courtyard and went to a flat area in the back mountain to watch Gu Qingchen cultivate.
As an Eight Star Venerable, Ye Xing's eyesight was much better than Gu Jinyang's. Furthermore, he had the super brain scan, so he could clearly see any flaws in Gu Qingchen's cultivation.
Ye Xing naturally gave Gu Qingchen a few pointers. This allowed Gu Jinyang to understand his own flaws. As he slowly corrected them, his martial arts attainments grew higher and higher. There were signs of him breaking through to the Transformative Realm.
Gu Jinyang was very impressed by this. Gu Qingchen was even more worshipful of Ye Xing. Because Ye Xing's pointers made him feel like his comprehension of martial arts had suddenly improved.
As Ye Xing's strength recovered, Gu Jinyang could sense that Ye Xing's aura was becoming more and more terrifying. His cultivation base had reached a level that even he could not judge.
Gu Jinyang knew that he had met an expert. However, he did not find it strange that Ye Xing was a disciple of the Dark Moon Palace. As a four-star power, the Dark Moon Palace even had Star Sea Realm Kings among their genius disciples.
Therefore, when Ye Xing started to give pointers to Gu Jinyang, Gu Jinyang consciously stopped and let Gu Qingchen cultivate according to Ye Xing's pointers.
Another half a month passed. Ye Xing's injuries were getting better and better. He had recovered more than 70% of his strength. In another half a month, he would be completely recovered.
Gu Qingchen's several supreme-grade martial arts had also broken through to the Transformative Realm under Ye Xing's pointers. His strength had increased greatly.
Furthermore, Ye Xing also took out some low-grade spirit herbs for Gu Qingchen to cultivate his physical body cultivation technique. This would strengthen his physical body in the Star Tempering Realm and lay a good foundation.
On this day …
Gu Qingchen went out to buy herbs again. Unlike before, he jogged all the way to Ye Xing with an excited smile on his face.
"Big Brother Ye Xing, I won, I won …!"
Gu Qingchen said excitedly. He was so happy that he danced with joy. "Martial arts that have reached the Transformative Realm are indeed powerful. In addition, my physical strength has increased greatly. This time, I defeated all the one-star marquises who bullied me …!"
Gu Qingchen was so excited that he could not sleep. He was at the ninth level of the Star Tempering Realm and had defeated several Star Vortex Realm martial artists.
For so many years, Gu Qingchen had been beaten up. He had never felt so elated before.
Looking at the excited Gu Qingchen, Ye Xing had a thought. Gu Qingchen could be considered elated this time. However, his strength had increased greatly, and this would definitely attract Gu Cangbei's attention.
Now, other than Gu Qingchen and Gu Jinyang, no one in the Gu Family knew about Ye Xing's existence. However, from today onwards, Gu Cangbei would definitely send people to investigate.
"My injuries will recover soon. I don't need to stay here anymore …!" Ye Xing looked at the mountains and thought to himself, "I can find a place to live in seclusion and not let the Gu Family know. After Gu Qingchen becomes the Family Head, I will leave and go to the Big Dipper Sword Sect to see Brother Feng!"
Gu Qingchen did not notice Ye Xing's expression and said excitedly, "It's a pity that I didn't beat Gu Qingchen today. I only tied with him. He is at the second level of the Star Vortex Realm. It seems that I have to break through to the Star Vortex Realm to defeat him.
After I become the Family Head, I will continue to cultivate diligently. In the future, I will become an expert like my father and mother. At that time, I will go to the Heavenly Flame Ancient Land to find them …! "
