The other party's words caused a huge commotion. Not to mention Gu Zheng, even Shuang 'er looked at him in disbelief.
They all knew about Xue 'er's background. She had been wandering around the Beise Mountain Range since she was young. Later, she was adopted by a Goblin and consumed the Form Transformation Pill. Then, she was adopted by a human couple.
"I know why you are looking at me like that. Actually, we only found out about her whereabouts recently. But no matter what, she has a mother, right?"
Hearing the other party's explanation, Gu Zheng and the others understood. Xue 'er couldn't be an orphan. In addition to her extraordinary talent, if she was really an ordinary fox, how could she be chosen by a powerful Goblin and be taken in as a disciple? There must be some inside story that they didn't know.
However, this didn't dispel their doubts. They still looked at him cautiously. Although what he said made sense, there was no reason to prove that he was her elder.
"You see, I am actually from the same clan as her. Her mother is actually my younger sister. It's just that she hid it from everyone in the past. Those who knew about the sacrificial ceremony just found out, so the clan ordered me to find her and bring her back. Her mother was locked up." A small part of his tail peeked out from under the other party's body. At the same time, he released his aura without hiding it.
Seeing this, at least Xing Cai and the others relaxed a lot. This was because the aura was indeed similar to Xue 'er's.
However, Gu Zheng didn't buy it. Even if he was 90% sure that the other party was Xue 'er's so-called uncle, Gu Zheng wouldn't take the risk to hand Xue' er over without being 100% sure of the other party's identity.
"Even if everything you said is true, you have to prove your real identity. You can't just say it. You know what I mean, right?" Gu Zheng said with a cold smile.
In fact, the fact that he could take such a big risk and come here without hesitation after seeing their figures was enough to show that he might really be Xue 'er's elder.
"I know what you mean, but I'm a little worried. I have to wait until she wakes up. I'll show her and she'll understand!" He spread his hands helplessly.
"Then you can only wait, so please stay away and don't cause any misunderstanding!" Gu Zheng pointed at him and said.
"I understand. But since I've found her, I won't leave them. So, I'll follow you all closely. Don't worry, I'll seal my cultivation for now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he patted himself a few times, and his cultivation suddenly disappeared. He no longer looked like a normal person. If Gu Zheng and the others attacked at this time, he wouldn't have any strength left to resist.
Gu Zheng's heart went numb when he saw the other party looking at him with a playful expression.
"I've already expressed my utmost sincerity. If it doesn't work, you can tie me up. Anyway, I won't leave her even half a step!"
"Alright, I agree to your request. You can follow us. Xing Cai, keep an eye on him. If he makes any strange movements, act first and report later!" Gu Zheng said to Xing Cai, who was beside him.
"Thank you! My name is Qing Xuan. What's your name? " Qing Xuan walked over happily and greeted them as if he was familiar with them. Unfortunately, everyone ignored him.
However, Xing Cai seemed to want to take revenge. When she saw him walking over, she reached out and tapped him a few times, placing a seal on him.
"Don't try to play any tricks. Stay here obediently!"
When the disciples of Mt. Xue saw that the matter was over, they dispersed again.
"Miss Xing Cai, can you allow me to call you that?" Qing Xuan saw that no one was looking at him, so he looked in front of Xing Cai and greeted her. "I'll be in your care in the future!"
Unfortunately, Xing Cai only glanced at him and walked away while rubbing her shoulder. He had injured her just now, and she didn't settle the score with him. Yet, he still had the cheek to come over.
Qing Xuan was rejected, but he didn't care. Then, he walked over to Shuang 'er.
"This beautiful lady, her current name is Xue 'er, right? Did you give her that name? How poetic! "
"No, I didn't. When I met Sister Xue 'er, she was already called Xue' er. Maybe it was the Old Man's wife who adopted her who gave her that name."
Shuang 'er didn't give him any face like Xing Cai did. If he was really Sister Xue' er's elder, she couldn't disrespect him. Seeing that Gu Zheng had allowed him to join them, it was very likely that what he said was true. So, she naturally answered his question.
"Oh, I see!" At this moment, Qing Xuan saw that Xue 'er had been brought back by Gu Zheng. He was patiently treating her injuries. He didn't take the opportunity to ask anything. After thanking him, he stood aside and watched them do their own things.
He knew that some things couldn't be rushed. As long as Xue 'er woke up, everything would be clear.
In fact, he had thought long and hard before deciding to place his fate in their hands. It was obvious that his niece held a very important place in their hearts. As long as he didn't court death, he wouldn't be mistreated.
However, none of them noticed that Zhao Man, who was standing at the side, had a look of surprise in his eyes when he received the spear in his hand. The speed at which the spear flashed seemed to have increased as well. Only then did Zhao Man return to his normal state.
Xiao Le looked at the spear. At this moment, the spear was no longer flashing. A faint smile appeared on his face, but it quickly returned to normal.
Phoenix's Nirvana!
He didn't think that there would be such a thing in here. Although he didn't get many cards, it was still an excellent opportunity for him. Who gave him this weapon? It seemed that he wasn't destined to die yet.
After a day, the group decided to leave the mountain range.
The people of the Great Snow Mountain didn't have any objections because they already knew that their Sect Master was waiting for them outside. This time, the Great Snow Mountain had suffered heavy losses. Many elders had died tragically, and many ordinary disciples had also suffered. It could be said that they had suffered heavy losses.
At this time, Xue 'er was still unconscious. However, she was too tired and would recover after two days of rest.
Fortunately, with Shuang 'er's help, the sealed disciples of the Great Snow Mountain had recovered their cultivation. Otherwise, the speed at which they were traveling would have made Gu Zheng anxious.
With the aftermath of the previous battle, no one dared to stay in the vicinity.
Xue 'er woke up on the third day, but she didn't have any intention of acknowledging this so-called relative. She stayed by Xiao Le's side all day long.
She firmly believed that Zhao Man would understand her feelings and try to awaken his memories.
However, Xiao Le followed Gu Zheng's instructions and ignored Xue 'er. He even showed an impatient expression.
However, Xue 'er didn't care at all because she was already mentally prepared. Perhaps he wouldn't be able to recover his memories for the rest of his life.
However, she didn't notice that although the long spear usually had fiery red patterns on it, it would only glow slightly when Xue 'er came over, as if it was cheering. Especially when Xue' er occasionally went to the heart of the earthen building, the frequency of the flickering would be higher. However, the brightness was too dim, almost the same as usual. Other than Xiao Le, no one noticed it.
After a full week, they finally arrived outside the Bezos Mountain Range after traveling day and night without stopping.
At this time, Zhu Fei and the others who were patiently waiting outside had already sensed the aura of Gu Zheng and the others and had already come to greet them.
On the other side, Yuan Li went to appease his disciples, while Zhu Fei and the others came to Gu Zheng's side.
"Thank you, Fellow Cultivator Gu, for helping us completely solve our biggest problem. From now on, this place will be relaxed for at least a long time!" As soon as he came up, Bo Xu thanked Gu Zheng.
"Yes, Big Brother Gu, we thank you on behalf of the people of this continent!" Lan Xin and her sister also stepped forward and thanked Gu Zheng.
How could they not thank him, especially at the end, they had already heard the final situation from Qi Xiang. It was extremely dangerous, a single mistake could have caused the entire team to be wiped out, but in the end, they still won without any mishap.
Among them, Gu Zheng took up the majority of the credit for this.
Even if the other party was poisoned, without enough attack power, they couldn't defeat the other party. They didn't have this level.
"Hehe, this is what I should do. Besides, if I didn't explode in the end, I would have died there. I was just protecting myself!" Gu Zheng said modestly.
Bo Xu and the others didn't say anything, but just smiled because they understood Gu Zheng's modesty. It was enough to keep this kind of kindness in mind, saying more would seem a bit wishy-washy.
Just as they finished talking, Qi Xiang also approached Gu Zheng's side and said to him.
"Young Master Gu, our mission has been completed. I will take the remains of the pyroxene stone back!"
At this time, the members of his team were still a little sad because their partner of tens of thousands of years had died here.
"I'm sorry!" Gu Zheng wanted to say something, but in the end, it turned into an apology.
It was because the pyroxene stone was indeed dead. Whether it was his fault or not, the other party had helped him. In short, it was his fault.
"It's okay. It's much better than what we expected. We originally planned to stay here. Speaking of which, we were lucky outside!" Qi Xiang pretended to be joking and laughed.
However, no one agreed with him. After a few hollow laughs, he closed his mouth.
"Why don't you rest for a while in Feng City? You can leave after you recover from your injuries. "Gu Zheng suggested. He hadn't thanked them properly yet.
"No, we'd better go back early. No one dares to do anything to us along the way!" Qi Xiang understood what Gu Zheng meant. If no one had died, they could have stayed outside for a while, but now they just wanted to go back.
"Well, I won't keep you any longer! Help me bring this to Xiang Xiang. " Gu Zheng looked at Qi Xiang's eyes and understood that he had made up his mind to leave. He took out an exquisite treasure chest, which was half the size of a table.
"I will definitely help you bring it to her. I believe that Princess Xiang Xiang will be very happy after receiving it!" At this time, thinking of Princess Xiang Xiang, Qi Xiang showed a smile.
"Everyone, we will go first. See you again if fate wills it!" After putting away Gu Zheng's gift, Qi Xiang said goodbye to the crowd.
"Goodbye. Thank you for your contribution to us. We will remember your kindness forever!" Bo Xu and the twins thanked them solemnly.
As for Zhu Fei, he only nodded to the other party because he had come here to give face to Gu Zheng. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked about these things and wouldn't have had the opportunity to get involved in this.
"Goodbye!"
Qi Xiang's team members said goodbye to everyone, and then followed Qi Xiang to the sky and flew toward the seaside.
"Goodbye!"
Gu Zheng waved his hand at their backs. He had already given the Twin Jade Pearls away. In any case, it was no longer useful to him. It had helped him through the most difficult time, so he might as well give it to Xiang Xiang. Perhaps it would allow it to shine again.
"Brother Gu, in that case, I also want to say goodbye to you!" At this time, when Qi Xiang and the others disappeared into the distance, Zhu Fei said to Gu Zheng.
"Senior Zhu Fei, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, our losses would have been even greater. I haven't had the time to thank you!" Gu Zheng said in astonishment. He didn't expect Zhu Fei to leave at this time.
"Actually, from this point of view, I still owe you a favor. Even without me, you wouldn't have been in any danger. You should know that you are my savior. Now that things are over, I also need to have a good rest. It just so happens that there is an excellent place for cultivation in the Bass Mountain Range. I will go there and prepare to rest. If fate wills it, we will still meet again!" Zhu Fei said with a smile.
"Tsk tsk!"
The cute pet that had returned earlier also nodded wildly. Then, it raised its tail and came to Gu Zheng's shoulder. It pressed its furry paws on Gu Zheng's cheeks to make them bulge a little. Then, it rubbed its little head against Gu Zheng's shoulder.
"I will miss you!" Gu Zheng touched the cute pet's head. He knew that the most important thing for Zhu Fei now was to recuperate. It would be faster to recover in the outside world than in the human world. So, he simply didn't say anything.
"Tsk tsk!" The cute pet seemed to be saying something. Unfortunately, Shuang 'er was saying something over at Yuan Li's side and couldn't translate it for him. He could only treat it as her reluctance to part with him.
"Let's go!" Zhu Fei waved to the cute pet. Then, accompanied by the sound of a bell, the two figures flew in the direction of the Bass Mountain Range and soon disappeared in front of everyone.
"Why are you looking at me? I didn't think of going back this time. You promised me that you would go back and accompany me home!" Xing Cai said immediately when she saw Gu Zheng looking at her.
"Have you arranged everything on your side?" Gu Zheng was referring to the Star Alliance.
"It's already been arranged. With your help, Elder Mo has successfully advanced into the early Golden Immortal Stage. That brat Mo Xing is still pestering me to come and find you." Thinking of Mo Xing's funny look, Xing Cai couldn't help but chuckle.
"Don't worry. When these things are over, I will run and accompany you to leave here!" Gu Zheng said frankly.
"That's good. It's good that you didn't forget. I don't need this little time." Xing Cai said with satisfaction when she saw Gu Zheng say so.
Originally, there was a group of people. Now that so many people had left, Gu Zheng felt a little empty. These were all friends who fought side by side before.
However, this feeling disappeared from Gu Zheng's heart in the blink of an eye. He walked towards Yuan Li.
"Are you done here? If you are, we will continue to go back. When we reach Feng City, we will find a place to rest! "
"Well, I have decided to go to Feng City first. I will find a place outside as a temporary camp for everyone. I will find a suitable place later."
"The decision is in your hands. It's up to you." Gu Zheng said indifferently.
This time, even the base of the Great Snow Mountain was destroyed. He was afraid that for a long time, this place would be used as a temporary sect headquarters.
"By the way, I have something to tell you. Shuang 'er has agreed to join the sect of the Great Snow Mountain. She will be the future sect leader." Yuan Li thought for a moment and decided to tell him now. After all, he would know about this sooner or later.
"Where are you going? Shuang 'er's strength seems to be lacking. She is going to be the sect leader! "Gu Zheng was a little surprised. He didn't know why Yuan Li had made this decision.
However, for Shuang 'er, it would be fine if she could go to the Great Snow Mountain. After all, he would have to leave this place soon. When the time came, it would be difficult for him to decide what to do with her. However, he couldn't let her follow him.
What he needed was to experience the life he had never experienced before. In the past, it seemed that he had dealt with all kinds of famous people. In fact, his foundation was very weak. He needed a variety of different ways to hone himself.
If she gave herself to him, he would only harm her.
This was also why he only went forward alone. He could take them with him temporarily, but he would have to leave them in the end. However, this was also good for their growth.
"Naturally, I should leave here and travel to those bustling areas. After all, thanks to your good fortune, no one needs to worry about this place for many years. Besides, there are also people from the League of Defender here. It doesn't matter if I have one more or one less." Yuan Li said with a smile.
"As for Miss Shuang 'er, I think she is fully qualified. She only needs me to guide her for a few years. You must know that I didn't know anything back then. I didn't know what to do slowly. Everything will be a training."
"Well, as long as Shuang 'er has no objections, I have no objections either!" Gu Zheng said to Yuan Li when he saw this.
"I have no objections. I believe I can do a good job and bring the Great Snow Mountain to greater heights!" Shuang 'er, who had been eavesdropping, immediately jumped out and said to Gu Zheng when she heard Gu Zheng say so.
In fact, only she knew what she was thinking.
"Good girl, we are going to be rich this time." The Six Friends of Qing City had also been listening to the movements here. When they saw that the matter had finally been decided, they couldn't help but look at each other.
After the others heard this, they nodded wildly. Their hearts were filled with joy. The world was really unpredictable. Although they had only participated a little in this matter, it was still dangerous. Fortunately, they worked together. At least no one was sacrificed. Moreover, the person they followed had suddenly become the sect master of the Great Snow Mountain, which made them feel a little dizzy with happiness.
As for Shuang 'er, she was still accompanying Zhao Man, just like how Zhao Man used to take the initiative to find her.
Only when one lost something would one know how to cherish it!
