I Agree
"Little brother, do you think I'm joking?" The smile on Chen Zihan's face deepened. "In the Beichen Trading Company, the position of guest elder is decided by the Alliance Master."
"The guest elder's strength cannot be weaker than the Xuan Rank. Since little brother already has the strength to crush Su Huatian, why can't you be a guest elder? Besides, little brother has such potential. If we can rope him in, it will be of great help to our branch … "
Gu Xuan carefully sized up Chen Zihan. He now realized that Chen Zihan was able to reach this position at such a young age, not just because of her identity.
Just her eyesight and boldness to let a "child" like him become a guest elder was not something an ordinary person could compare to.
However, Gu Xuan did not immediately get carried away by these shocking conditions. Instead, he calmed down and carefully analyzed the pros and cons of joining the Beichen Trading Company.
Chen Zihan quietly waited at the side. Gu Xuan's indifference was actually within her expectations. If Gu Xuan could not wait to agree just because the conditions were attractive, then she would have really underestimated him.
After a cup of tea's time, Gu Xuan finally smiled and took the ring between him and Chen Zihan. He put it on his finger. "It seems that this time, I will have to provoke the Trading Company's Board of Elders."
The Guest Elders had the same authority as the Elders, and those Elders of the trading company, which one of them wasn't old enough to turn into a fossil? It would be strange if they didn't look for trouble with a child like him who hadn't even grown out his hair yet.
However, although Gu Xuan did not want to look for trouble, under the temptation of benefits, he could only do something that did not know the depth of the situation.
"Hehe, now that little brother has become a guest elder, you can be considered the first person on my side. There will be more troubles in the future than little brother can imagine." Chen Zihan smiled charmingly.
Although Chen Zihan was the branch's Alliance Master, her age was too far apart from the Board of Elders. Although her eyesight was unparalleled, she could not convince the Board of Elders.
Old Chen was someone she brought from her family. However, according to the family's rules, Old Chen could not do anything except ensure her safety.
Therefore, Chen Zihan made Gu Xuan a guest elder not only to rope him in, but also to get him to help her out of this predicament.
Gu Xuan nodded. He did not wish to delay any longer. He stood up and said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
Gu Xuan's actions caused Chen Zihan to feel a little disappointed in her heart. She understood how tempting her appearance was to men, and she also enjoyed the feeling of being desired by others. However, Gu Xuan's attitude towards her had always been lukewarm.
Other people were eager to have a little more relationship with her, but Gu Xuan was too lazy to sit here for a while.
Thinking up to here, Chen Zihan finally couldn't refrain from asking the question she held back earlier. "Little Brother, do you know the Alchemy Sovereign, Gu Xuan?!"
Gu Xuan's body tensed up. He felt a layer of cold sweat on his back. However, he did his best to maintain a calm expression. He said calmly, "I have also heard of the Alchemy Emperor. However, he died a hundred years ago. How could I possibly know him? However, his name is the same as mine. It can be considered fate."
"Oh? Is that so? " Chen Zihan raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Xuan with a burning gaze. It was as if she wanted to see through Gu Xuan completely. "But little brother, it isn't just your name that is fated with the Pill Sovereign's. Even your personality is a little similar …"
"Why? Alliance Master, are you very familiar with the Alchemy Sovereign? "Gu Xuan pretended to ask casually.
"Not really. I just heard from our Alliance Master that the Alchemy Sovereign is his best friend. I still know a little about the Alchemy Sovereign Gu Xuan's deeds," Chen Zihan said.
"Sister Han, you are overthinking. If I knew the Alchemy Sovereign, I wouldn't be called by this name," Gu Xuan shook his head and said.
"It seems that I am overthinking," Chen Zihan nodded.
After Gu Xuan left, Chen Zihan thought carefully for a while. Only then did she deny the conjecture that Gu Xuan was related to the Alchemy Sovereign.
Although the two of them had the same name, the same personality, and seemed to have a deep relationship with elixirs, it was impossible for the two of them to be connected.
As for the two Gu Xuan's being the same person, she didn't dare to think about it.
As for Gu Xuan, after he walked out of the house, he let out a long breath. He wasn't afraid that Chen Zihan would have any ideas. What he was really afraid of was Gu Xingyun.
After becoming a Great Emperor, one could sense fate and know the karma of the unseen world. If the conversation exposed even the slightest bit of relationship between him and his previous life, Gu Xingyun might know about it. The disaster that would be brought about might be terrifying.
However, Chen Zihan had actually met Nangong Chen. This was a little out of Gu Xuan's expectations.
He knew that Chen Zihan had some background. Otherwise, it was impossible for her to become the Alliance Master of the Beichen Merchant Alliance at such a young age. Moreover, she had a Peak Xuan Rank expert guarding the door for her.
However, he didn't expect Chen Zihan to be able to get in touch with Nangong Chen. Apart from the top forces, there was no way to negotiate with such a person.
However, Gu Xuan didn't remember any Chen Clan that was so big. In just a hundred years, the situation had changed. If Nangong Chen could become the Head of the Merchant Alliance, it wasn't impossible for a new force to appear.
"Well, at least Chen Zihan and I are allies now. The stronger her background, the more advantageous it is for me."
Gu Xuan shook his head and threw these doubts out of his mind. The most important thing now was to solve the problem of the Su Clan.
Gu Xuan injected a trace of the Power of Flame into the ring on his hand. He felt the space of one square foot inside.
There were originally some Spiritual Herbs inside, but Chen Zihan had already emptied them.
With this spatial ring, as long as he entered the Blood Deity's Pool, he would be able to fill the entire ring with Spiritual Crystals. The value would be terrifying!
Gu Xuan obtained first place in the 15-year-old Trial Platform. After reporting to the Mountain Suppression Marquis, the latter brought Gu Xuan to the Blood Deity's Pool again.
The Mountain Suppression Marquis stopped and asked with a frown, "Gu Xuan, there are still two months before I prepare to let you participate in the Empire Academy's test. Do you really want to fight to the death with Su Chen?"
Gu Xuan smiled, "If I don't agree, I'm afraid I won't be able to calm down and cultivate."
The Mountain Suppression Marquis pondered for a moment and smiled. He looked at Gu Xuan and said slowly, "What if I say I can help you to postpone this matter?"
Gu Xuan was stunned. He looked at the Mountain Suppression Marquis meaningfully, but then he shook his head, "The Su Clan and my Gu Clan will definitely fight. The Marquis may be able to postpone this battle, but there is no way to stop it. Under such circumstances, stopping me from fighting to the death with Su Chen is meaningless."
If the Mountain Suppression Marquis stepped in, the Su Clan might give him some face, but they would definitely give the Gu Clan harsh conditions. For example, they would have to pay more than 90% of the resources. This was something Gu Xuan would never allow.
The Mountain Suppression Marquis nodded and said, "Then aren't you afraid that your Gu Clan will suffer a crushing defeat? I can still give you a way out. As the price, how about you become my disciple? "
The potential that Gu Xuan displayed finally made the Mountain Suppression Marquis unable to hold back and sent out a second invitation.
