'Gu Xuan?
My master? '
When Li Yuanhao heard Gu Xuan's voice and saw Gu Xuan's face, he felt dizzy as if the sky was falling down on him.
Shock, shock, regret, pain, and many other words were not enough to describe his current feelings.
As a result, a peak saint actually fainted just like that and fell to the ground.
The third elder and the other two elders felt a little disappointed.
It was supposed to be a big show, but the main character fell down so quickly. How could their gossipy hearts endure this?
Fortunately, the fainting was only temporary. They were so busy now that it was impossible for them to continue fainting.
There was the number one Pill Emperor and a Pill Saint present. Although they were only half-step Pill Saints, how hard could it be to wake up a martial artist who had fainted because of shock?
Senior Dan waved his hand casually, and a wave of energy entered Li Yuanhao's body. Li Yuanhao woke up and opened his eyes.
The third elder and the other two elders' eyes lit up.
The show continued! Whoosh! Li Yuanhao jumped up.
"Gu Xuan, you damn bastard! You lied to me and everyone! Patriarch of the Pill Saint, this person must be plotting something! Let's kill him together! "
Li Yuanhao roared and almost spat his saliva on Gu Xuan's face.
Senior Dan snorted.
"Yuanhao, don't be rude! The grudges between Ying Tianzong and the Li family were all caused by misunderstandings.
No, to be exact, they were instigated by the Tian Dao Camp and the Wufang Bitter Land.
Gu Xuan is indeed the successor of the Eastern Wall Tribe's Old Ancestor. He and I can be considered as brothers.
He came to the Li family because I invited him to help. How could he be plotting something?
Hurry up and apologize to your master! "
In order to increase the credibility of his statement, Senior Dan directly put the blame on the Tian Dao Camp and the Wufang Bitter Land.
Li Yuanhao's mind was buzzing, and his heart was in a mess.
"No, that's impossible! Patriarch, he and the Li family have a life and death feud! Don't be fooled by him! "
Li Yuanhao had been receiving ideas for a long time, and he even hated Ying Tianzong and Gu Xuan. Now, his worldview had collapsed. For a moment, Li Yuanhao could not accept it.
He was not as gullible as the third elder.
Gu Xuan protected the third clan elder and the other two for who knows how many times before they were able to accept the "reality".
But Li Yuanhao was different.
Li Yuanhao did not have the same experience as them.
To him, he had only gone into seclusion for a short period of time. After he came out, he had somehow become the disciple of his enemy.
This was too sudden! Gu Xuan looked at Li Yuanhao with a smile that was not a smile. All of a sudden, a slap flew over.
Slap.
Li Yuanhao was slapped to the ground, half of his face quickly swollen.
"How dare you slap my face!"
Li Yuanhao started running angrily. His aura suddenly exploded.
Gu Xuan smiled coldly.
"It's perfectly justified for a master to beat his disciple.
Don't forget that you swore an oath not to betray the sect and not to be filial to your master.
If you attack me, let's not talk about whether or not you'll be able to hurt me, you'll be violating your oath.
At that time, the backlash from the oath would not be so fun.
Put away your laughable aura. Regardless of whether you accept it or not, you are the one who has acknowledged me as your teacher! "
Li Yuanhao didn't retract his energy. Instead, he glared at the Paragon of Pills.
"Patriarch of the Pill Saint, I'm not afraid of death! So long as you give the order, I'll fight him to the death, even if it costs me my life! I don't believe that I … "Slap.
The Paragon of Pills waved her right hand and slapped the other side of Li Yuanhao's face that wasn't swollen.
Immediately, that side of his face swelled up.
"Your face is finally symmetrical … Cough cough! Fight what?
What makes you think you can fight?
I do want to give you an order, but I don't want you to fight your master to the death. I want you to apologize to him! If you don't, then you'll be expelled from the Li family. You'll no longer be a member of the Li family! Since you're no longer a member of the Li family, you have no reason to hate my junior brother. "
Li Yuanhao's eyes widened. He couldn't believe what the Paragon of Pills had just said.
He was the most talented cultivator of the Li family's new generation. The patriarch doted on him the most, and he was almost set to be the next patriarch.
In the eyes of others, he was one of the candidates to become the next patriarch.
However, Li Yuanhao knew very well that if he wanted to, that "one of" could be removed at any time.
Therefore, the words' expelled from the clan 'were too big of a blow to him.
After a moment of stunned silence, two streams of tears flowed from Li Yuanhao's eyes. He sighed deeply, as if he'd made up his mind.
Thud.
He knelt before Gu Xuan and kowtowed three times. He didn't say a word.
He'd accepted his fate, but refused to accept it.
Gu Xuan laughed heartily.
"Please rise, my good disciple.
Now, let's get down to business.
Third Elder, Fifth Elder, Li Yuanjie, there's nothing else for you to do here. Stand guard outside the door. "
"Understood!"
The three elders responded in unison and left the Alchemy Room with a satisfied look on their faces.
This show had been well worth it! They'd have something to brag about for the rest of their lives.
Li Yuanhao rose to his feet and stared at the Paragon of Pills. His eyes suddenly turned bitter.
"You could've sent those three out long ago, right?
You let the three of them stay here so that they can laugh at me, right? "
Li Yuanhao didn't say what was on his mind.
The Paragon of Pills, however, understood from his bitter gaze.
"Why do you ask if you know?"
The Paragon of Pills glared at Li Yuanhao and replied inwardly.
Li Yuanhao understood as well.
Two more streams of tears flowed down his cheeks.
"Senior Brother, that Elder Zhi has been under your surveillance, right?"
Gu Xuan suddenly asked.
The Paragon of Pills was puzzled. Wasn't he going to talk about business? Why did he mention Elder Zhi for no reason?
What was there to study about a dead man?
"Indeed. Ever since he proposed the 'Saint Ascension' plan and urged me to open the tomb of the Eastern Wall's Forefather, I've been sending people to keep an eye on him.
My three Pill Saint bodyguards will report his whereabouts to me at any time.
Of course, that was before.
When Yuan Hao went into seclusion, Elder Zhi disappeared from my sight.
I thought he'd escaped, but I didn't expect that he'd used some secret method to hide in Yuan Hao's body! Damn it! I should've known.
If he wanted to attack Yuan Hao, the consequences would've been unimaginable! "
The Paragon of Pills felt a trace of lingering fear as she spoke.
Li Yuanhao, on the other hand, was covered in cold sweat.
He didn't know when Elder Zhi had been hiding in his body.
Given Elder Zhi's strength, he'd be at the gates of hell if he wanted to kill him.
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes.
"If I'm not mistaken, Elder Zhi hid in my disciple's body not only to escape the surveillance of the holy guards, but also to prevent him from reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul realm.
Once Yuan Hao begins his tribulation, I'm afraid he'll immediately interfere.
Elder Zhi is from the Land of Desolation, which means he doesn't want a peak expert to appear in the Li Family.
Strictly speaking, there aren't any peak experts in the Li Family who are absolutely loyal to them, right? "
The Paragon of Pills sighed and nodded.
"The Li Family has three peak experts, the first elder, and two vice-patriarchs.
However, they're all from the Land of Desolation.
The reason I value Yuan Hao so much is because he's the most likely to become a true peak expert of the Li Family! "
Li Yuanhao clenched his fists.
"Please don't worry, Patriarch Pill Saint. I'll work hard and become …"
Light suddenly flashed through the Paragon of Pills' eyes.
"Junior brother, why are you emphasizing this?"
He seemed to have thought of something.
Gu Xuan's eyes flashed as well.
"The Land of Desolation alone has three peak experts in the Li Family.
Elder Zhi's strength is comparable to an ordinary peak expert, and he's hiding in Yuan Hao's body.
Isn't that enough to explain the problem?
With so many people here, even if Yuan Hao becomes a peak expert, would they be afraid of a new peak expert?
Logically speaking, they shouldn't be.
However, they're clearly afraid! So the question is, what are they afraid of?
Are they afraid that Yuan Hao will become a peak expert, or that the Li Family will have a true peak expert?
Or perhaps, both? "
The Paragon of Pills' eyes lit up.
"I think I know what they're afraid of.
Dammit, I should've thought of it sooner! It seems that the plan we made before was very reasonable.
Could it have been more reasonable? "
