Many guests had gathered in the main hall, and it was extremely lively. They were all important figures from various places, existences that one would not even dare to think about.
Many supreme experts who seemed to have passed away also came here to personally deliver congratulatory gifts to Gu Xijiu's mother.
In fact, in their hearts, the Longevity Gu Clan was the most mysterious and long-lived among the everlasting families.
It seemed to have been immortal since the most ancient times.
After experiencing countless calamities, it always gave people the feeling that it would not be destroyed even if the world collapsed. No one knew how terrifying the Longevity Gu Clan's foundation was.
But no matter what … no one dared to underestimate it.
Even Wang Zijin was secretly shocked. She noticed that a very frightening existence from the Human Ancestor Palace had suddenly appeared in the depths of the Gu Clan's main hall, as if planning to visit an old friend.
Even though the Longevity Wang Family was also known as the Longevity Family, compared to the Longevity Gu Family, it seemed like they were still lacking something.
"Lacking foundation!"
In the end, she shook her head and whispered. She realized that she had narrowed her horizons.
She originally thought that as a transmigrator, she could see the entire world, but she realized that her horizons were really too narrow. She had underestimated many people and forces.
For Wang Zijin, who had always been confident and expected everything, this was undoubtedly a huge blow.
"Miss, I told you that you underestimate the world's geniuses too much. Now, many people say that unless those princes, ancient princes, or young kings who once reigned supreme in the world appear, no one in the younger generation will be a match for Young Master Changge."
Xiu 'er's eyes were full of admiration for Gu Changge. She was like a little fangirl who worshipped him to the extreme.
Wang Zijin smiled when she heard that. "I kind of hope that those reigning supreme kings will appear. I also want to see how strong Brother Gu is."
Looking at Gu Changge, she couldn't help but feel competitive in her heart.
Before this, she did not have this feeling at all.
This was because she felt pressure from Gu Changge. She could not see through Gu Changge at all.
If not for the fact that she was afraid of exposing her identity, she would not have been able to resist the urge to spar with Gu Changge.
Inside the grand and magnificent hall, the guests were extremely happy. They discussed all kinds of things and then offered congratulatory words.
Gu Changge's father, Gu Lintian, also appeared. His cultivation was terrifying and vast, and it was unknown what level he had reached.
He appeared at the head of the table. His face was blurry as he conversed with all the guests.
In the end, they coincidentally changed the topic to the younger generation.
Without a doubt, Gu Changge was naturally the most dazzling one in this generation. Even the older generation of powerhouses did not dare to look down on him and had to treat him with respect.
What happened in the Immortal Ancient Continent shocked the world.
No one dared to imagine that this was something that a young man could do.
But that was the truth.
Long Life Gu Family's young master, Dao Heaven Immortal Palace's inheritor, Absolute Beginning Divine Sect's young master, Reincarnation Ancient Heavenly Deity's inheritor, Immortal Ancient's clans' overlord … he had so many halos around him, making everyone sigh in amazement, remaining silent for a long time.
In terms of power and influence, no one in the younger generation could compare to Gu Changge.
Even Yue Mingkong was more than half a level below him.
Gu Changge was the face of the Long Life Gu Family. When they heard these compliments, many Gu Family members and clan elders appeared to be extremely happy, their faces glowing with radiance.
In this world, who didn't like to hear compliments and flattering words?
Even though Gu Changge's many methods made one's heart tremble and could not be considered glorious, all in all, it still made the Gu Family members very satisfied.
In particular, Gu Xian 'er was also brought back by him, reuniting with his clansmen. More or less, many of the barriers between them were dissolved.
Gu Changge's identity as the young master, in their eyes, was something that should be done.
With such a young master, why would they worry about the family's prosperity?
Their judgment back then … was indeed wrong.
"Big Sister Mingkong …"
In a corner of the main hall.
Her face was incomparably beautiful. She wore a wide sleeved flowing immortal dress. Her temperament was cold and aloof, like a flawless fairy, Gu Xian 'er.
Right now, she was pulling Yue Mingkong, speaking in a low voice.
"Xian 'er …"
Yue Mingkong's face was filled with gentleness.
The two of them reminisced about old times. After entering the Immortal Ancient Continent that day, they parted ways. Until now, they had many things to say to each other.
After returning to the Long Life Gu Family, Gu Xian 'er's treatment, whether it was identity or status, instantly reached the level of being the Gu Family's beloved daughter.
For a moment, she was a little unable to react.
However, this kind of thing obviously had the approval of the Gu Family's clan elders and clan master.
Gu Xian 'er also gradually adapted to it.
However, she did not forget her original plan. Therefore, she made all kinds of indirect inquiries to the clansmen of each bloodline, especially the clan elders of her bloodline, asking about what had happened that year.
After all, she had sworn to find out Gu Changge's secret that no one knew.
In the end, she really did find some clues.
The midwife and the others who had delivered Gu Changge that day were no longer in the Gu Family. No one knew where they had gone.
However, it was very obvious that they had been dealt with by Gu Changge's bloodline.
Gu Xian 'er could not help but feel apprehensive. She was not stupid at all. Naturally, she could see the reason for this. When Gu Changge was born, something must have accompanied him.
Otherwise, it would not have caused such a huge reaction.
Everyone who knew about this that day had been secretly dealt with and dealt with.
All of this looked flawless and flawless. However, with such an obvious loophole, as long as a discerning person wanted to investigate, they would know at a glance that Gu Changge's bloodline was actually trying to hide something.
In Gu Xian 'er's opinion, what they were trying to hide was Gu Changge's biggest secret.
Soon, she secretly told Yue Mingkong all of this.
In the entire Long Life Gu Family, except for Yue Mingkong, even if the others knew about this, they would probably keep it a secret and would not dare to talk about it.
At this time, after hearing this, Yue Mingkong also fell into deep silence.
"You mean to say that when Changge was born, there was already a problem …"
"All these years, Changge, he …"
Yue Mingkong asked, frowning. There were many things that she did not know how to say.
She was guessing whether this matter that Gu Xian 'er was talking about had a deep connection with Gu Changge's change in temperament in her previous life and in this life.
Moreover, could the reason why Gu Changge went to the Lower Realm be related to this matter as well?
In that instant, she felt as if something had flashed through her mind like a flash of lightning.
It was as if she could solve all of this mystery as long as she grasped this one.
This was very important!!
It was obvious that Gu Changge's parents were hiding something from her and were not going to tell her.
This might be the secret that Gu Xian 'er was talking about now.
"Yes, all these days, I've always felt that Gu Changge had a premeditated plan when he dug out my Dao bone. Even now, it's still the same …"
"First, he wanted to make me hate him. Then, he thought of a way to return the Dao bone to me. During this time, he deliberately acted cold to me, intending to make me hate him."
"He actually wanted to train me, but my strength was still not as good as his. He was very disappointed."
Gu Xian 'er nodded as she spoke. She told her many guesses over the past few days.
Especially her analysis of Gu Changge's actions and behavior.
She was not stupid. She had been carefully taught by many old fellows. It was just that in front of Gu Changge, she had repeatedly hit a wall and appeared to be a little foolish.
At this moment, many bright lights flashed in Gu Xian 'er's eyes.
She did not doubt her own judgment.
In the past few days after returning to the Longevity Gu Clan, she had discovered that not only were her clansmen not suppressed in the Gu Clan, but they were even allocated more cultivation resources than before.
Although this was partly due to Gu Changge's clansmen making up for it, it was also due to their guilt and responsibility for what had happened in the past.
Gu Xian 'er did not have the slightest bit of hatred towards the Longevity Gu Clan.
"Now, as long as we can find out what happened when Gu Changge was born, and what caused all of this to happen …" Gu Xian 'er frowned as she spoke.
This fog was about to disperse, but it was still very vague. She was about to go crazy. She wanted nothing more than to cut open Gu Changge's heart and see what he was thinking.
However, all of the Gu Clan clansmen were confused, as if they did not know anything.
It could only be said that Gu Changge's clansmen had concealed what had happened in the past too well.
"Back then, when Master was on the mountain peak, he said that Gu Changge was born with a demonic nature. Could this be the case … but he later said that although Gu Changge's actions were like a demon, he was not a demon."
Gu Xian 'er muttered, thinking of what the Great Elder had said when he saw Gu Changge on the mountain peak.
She remembered this very clearly. She had not forgotten it even now.
"Born with a demonic nature?"
Yue Mingkong was slightly stunned when she heard this. She suddenly remembered that Gu Changge had inherited the Immortal Devouring Demonic Art.
However, she had not heard of anything special about the previous inheritor of the demonic art.
It was nothing more than a coincidence that he had obtained this inheritance. Then he began to cultivate and bring chaos to the world.
There should be nothing special between these two matters.
Yue Mingkong felt that she had to investigate this matter carefully.
Born with a demonic nature.
Many things contained a natural demonic nature. For a prodigy, possessing a natural demonic soul and natural demonic qi … was even more so.
What was the reason that made the clan behind Gu Changge so carefully conceal it and not let their clansmen or the outside world know?
And why did Gu Changge make a move on Gu Xian 'er at such a young age and dig out his Bone of Dao?
With such doubts in mind, Yue Mingkong returned to her seat.
Gu Xian 'er was not interested in such a scene.
She glanced at Gu Changge, who was conversing with many young Supreme Martial Artists, and left the main hall. She planned to adjust her state of cultivation and prepare for the awakening of the Gu Clan's bloodline in the Nirvana Pond.
She entered the Nirvana Pond in the Gu Clan's ancestral hall.
Such an opportunity was extremely rare, even in the Longevity Gu Clan.
There were no more than five people in each generation.
Because the cost of activating the Nirvana Pond was enormous and shocking, even in the Longevity Gu Clan, it was slightly painful.
Some of the materials needed to activate the Nirvana Pond were used up, and it was impossible to find a replacement.
For the young clansmen who entered, the benefits and opportunities were heaven-defying.
Gu Xian 'er was also very interested in this. It could improve her cultivation, although she would enter with Gu Changge when the time came.
Then, in the main hall surrounded by immortal mist.
The banquet was served. The Longevity Wine was fragrant and mellow, and it had been brewed for at least a million years.
After a few cups, without using cultivation, the guests were a little tipsy.
Even many of the Saints were drunk.
This was the mystery of the Wine of Longevity. People of different realms would taste different flavors.
There were countless celestial fruits and delicacies at the banquet, showing the Longevity Gu Clan's wealth.
For example, the Divine King Creation Fruit.
The palm-sized fruit was sparkling and translucent, and one could see a cloud of celestial spiritual Qi inside.
In addition, it also contained the rules of the Great Dao and Dao, which could help Divine King cultivators forge their Primordial Spirits.
It was very difficult to find in the outside world.
Many guests tasted it and felt the Spirit Qi in their bodies. Then, a mysterious energy appeared in their mind.
Their Primordial Spirits were also purer.
Halfway through the banquet.
Many young geniuses also took this opportunity to spar with each other and verify their knowledge.
Many of the girls looked at Gu Changge, their eyes filled with admiration.
They were competing in front of Gu Changge.
However, their moves weren't fierce. Instead, they were beautiful. They were like fairies dancing, which was pleasing to the eye.
In an instant, many young men widened their eyes in envy.
"When will we be able to dance with so many talented girls!?"
"Comparisons are odious. How can there be such a perfect man like Young Master Changge in the world?"
Many young Heaven's Favorites had to admit that Gu Changge was extremely attractive to women.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the middle of the month.
"That's a pity. After looking around, I didn't see anyone with a bit of ability. To think that I had high hopes for this."
"After thinking about it, I'm still too strong. Apart from Wang Zijin, who was born extraordinary, I don't think I can find a suitable candidate."
Gu Changge was dressed in a plain white robe. He was handsome and elegant, and his figure was tall and straight.
There was a slight smile on his face, which attracted the gazes of many proud daughters of heaven to secretly look at him with admiration.
Unfortunately, apart from Yue Mingkong, no one could hear Gu Changge's regretful words.
He glanced at the young Supremes around him, including Wang Zijin and Ye Langtian. He seemed to be disappointed.
Yue Mingkong was calm after hearing that. She was still thinking about what Gu Xian 'er said to her.
She was beautiful, her eyes were bright, her hair was soft and smooth, and she was wearing a simple and elegant dress. She sat next to him.
She glanced at Gu Changge beside her but didn't say anything.
If it had been in the past, hearing Gu Changge sigh so calmly, she would have felt a chill running down her spine.
She would definitely feel a chill on her back and be on her guard against Gu Changge.
Because this meant that Gu Changge was plotting something. Just like last time, he had put the blame of being the inheritor of demonic arts on Ye Ling.
Now that he was saying this, it was obvious that he was plotting against someone.
But now, Yue Mingkong didn't think that there was anything wrong … It was very natural and not surprising at all. She even felt that this Gu Changge was the one she was most familiar with.
He had no scruples in front of her and said these things to himself.
He seemed to be talking to himself, but he was obviously saying it deliberately for her to hear.
"Mingkong, won't you help your husband solve his problems?"
At this moment, Gu Changge had a smile on his face. He suddenly held her slender, jade-like hand under the mat.
Yue Mingkong was stunned. This was Gu Changge taking the initiative to talk to her after they parted last time.
Especially in such an intimate way.
She was stunned. Her head suddenly felt a little dizzy. For a moment, she couldn't understand Gu Changge's intentions.
Those words in the Immortal Ancient Continent's Bai Heng Mountain Range had clearly hurt him. In the end, it had caused their relationship to fall to the freezing point.
Could it be that he didn't mind anymore and had forgiven her?
Yue Mingkong couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.
"How can I help you?"
Yue Mingkong quickly asked. She forced herself to calm down.
But her heart was still beating very fast. No matter what, she could never keep calm in front of Gu Changge.
She had originally thought that there was a gap between Gu Changge and herself. It would be extremely difficult for her to gain his understanding and trust again.
After all, it was hard to guess Gu Changge's thoughts.
She had a place in Gu Changge's heart, but not too much.
Yue Mingkong had never changed her mind about this.
But … she was willing to wait for Gu Changge. She was willing to wait for the day when Gu Changge truly opened his heart to her.
"Mingkong, what do you think your husband should do now? I can't find a suitable scapegoat. These young Heaven's Prides are too weak. The real important people haven't shown themselves yet."
"And very soon, the people from the Human Ancestor's Palace will come looking for your husband."
"When your husband dies, you will become a widow."
Gu Changge smiled and whispered in her ear. In the eyes of outsiders, this was like the intimate behavior of a young couple.
And Gu Changge looked like he was really in trouble and was asking Yue Mingkong for advice.
Yue Mingkong ignored Gu Changge's teasing words. She calmed down and asked, "Isn't that ancient freak called Wang Zijin the best candidate?"
