At the same time, in the main hall of the Ji Family, many higher-ups and elders of the Ji Family gathered. However, they were all very quiet and stood respectfully at the side.
In the center, a haggard woman was reuniting with "Su Qingge".
Both of them looked sincere. Their eyes were red as they held each other's hands tightly, as if they were reuniting after a long time.
This woman was naturally Su Qingge and Ji Qingxuan's mother, Ji Xue.
She had been imprisoned all these years and was forbidden from leaving the courtyard.
Today was the first time she left the courtyard. She was told that her other daughter was looking for her. This made Ji Xue so emotional that she almost cried.
She didn't know that Ji Qingxuan and Su Qingge had swapped identities.
The two daughters looked exactly the same. As long as they studied each other's description and behavior, even she, as the biological mother, couldn't tell who was who.
"I've heard your sister mention you before. You really look like her!"
"It's been hard on you all these years. I'm sorry …"
Ji Xue's eyes were red as she choked. She never thought that she would see the light of day again.
She had never wished for such a thing, because she knew it was impossible. She was destined to die of old age in that quiet courtyard.
Yet today, the entire clan had decided to cancel her punishment and even restore her former status.
Ji Xue knew that this was all brought by her daughter, Su Qingge. To be exact, it was because of the young man beside her.
Her daughter had an unimaginable backer.
Even the Ji Family had to take a step back in front of him.
This made her feel gratified and bitter. If her daughter didn't meet Gu Changge, how much hardship would she have to suffer?
"Young Master Changge, we have prepared a lunch banquet. After Qingge and Ji Xue are done with their mother-daughter relationship, we can eat."
Ji Hao, the head of the Ji Family, said respectfully. He now looked like a good uncle.
Gu Changge nodded slightly and didn't refuse.
If he didn't know about the relationship between Su Qingge and Ji Qingxuan, even he would be fooled by Ji Qingxuan's acting.
"On the way here, I heard that your Ji Family's ancestor, Senior Ji Shengchu, is currently trapped somewhere. Is this news true?"
At this time, Gu Changge seemed to have thought of something, and could not help but raise his eyebrows as he asked unhurriedly.
Hearing this, the expressions of the Ji Family members in the main hall changed slightly.
They did not expect Gu Changge to suddenly ask such a question. How did he get this information?
One had to know that none of them had decided to spread the news.
"Where did Young Lord Changge hear this news from?"
"Regarding this matter, we still haven't decided whether or not we should inform the outside world."
However, at this time, it wasn't appropriate for them to ask any questions. The Ji Family's Patriarch, Ji Hao, regained his composure and said.
"Oh, then it seems that the news is true."
Gu Changge nodded in understanding, then smiled faintly, "Senior Ji Shengchu's past deeds have earned this junior's admiration. Now that I hear that he is trapped somewhere, I can't help but feel a little worried. If the Ji Family intends to rescue Senior Ji Shengchu, this junior is willing to lead the Gu Family to help."
"What?"
Hearing this, the Ji Family members in the hall were stunned at first, then reacted. Their eyes widened in disbelief.
Gu Changge was willing to help their ancestor?
Would he be so kind?
Many people were extremely shocked by this, but they felt that Gu Changge did not seem to be joking at this time. They could not help but show excitement and surprise on their faces.
Even the head of the Ji Family, Ji Hao, took a deep breath to calm himself down, but there was also a look of surprise on his face, and his voice trembled slightly. "If Young Lord Changge is willing to lend a hand, the Ji Family will naturally be grateful."
As long as Gu Changge said so, he could immediately order the clan to spread the news of their ancestor being trapped in Mount Kun throughout the Upper Realm.
Previously, they were worried that because of this matter, the enemies of the Ji Family would come looking for them and join forces to attack them.
Over the years, the Ji Family had been weakening day by day. If many enemies attacked together, they might not be able to hold on before they could rescue their ancestor.
That was why he hesitated. After all, there were pros and cons to this matter.
However, after Gu Changge's words, the situation changed, and it gave Ji Hao a lot of confidence.
After the entire Ji Family had Gu Changge's help, it was an invisible deterrent to their enemies.
"There's no need for that. Senior Ji Shengchu had made a great contribution to the Upper Realm and protected hundreds of millions of lives. Now that he's in trouble, as juniors, how can we not help?" Gu Changge gently shook his head and smiled faintly.
Hearing this, the Ji Family members who had a good impression of Gu Changge because of what happened just now admired him even more.
Such a righteous matter was said by Gu Changge, but it was understated and not worth paying attention to.
They could only say that he was worthy of being Young Lord Changge. His state of mind was far beyond their reach.
Ji Chuyue and Ji Yaoxing, who had just walked into the main hall, were stunned when they heard this.
Especially Ji Chuyue, her beautiful eyes stared blankly at Gu Changge. She could not imagine that this was what the Gu Changge she knew would say.
In her impression, not only was Gu Changge powerful, but he was also very shrewd. He would not give up until he achieved his goal and was very cold and ruthless.
Previously, she was still worried that Gu Changge would very likely stop them from rescuing their ancestor.
However, now Gu Changge was willing to take the initiative to help.
"Gu Changge's mind is indeed not something that I can fathom …"
Ji Yaoxing was also secretly shocked and very surprised.
He guessed that Gu Changge would not interfere in this matter, but he did not expect that Gu Changge would be willing to help.
No matter the reason, this was a great kindness to the entire Ji Family, and it was worth remembering forever.
"Young Lord Changge's noble character and unquestionable integrity is truly admirable."
Many of the Ji Family's higher-ups and old antiques also spoke at this moment. Their expressions were much more respectful, and their words were also from the bottom of their hearts.
Later, at the luncheon, Ji Hao and the others of the Ji Family told Gu Changge in detail how they knew that the Ji Family's ancestor was trapped in Mount Kun.
Mount Kun was extremely famous in the entire Upper Realm. It was a place of death, and even Supreme Beings only dared to wander around the periphery.
In the deeper parts of Mount Kun, even a small puddle could contain endless dangers.
After all, Mount Kun was also known as the Immortal King Mountain. Legend had it that an Immortal King had fallen there. Countless years had passed, and even a drop of the Immortal King's blood contained unimaginable power, enough to obliterate everything.
"So Senior Ji Shengchu is trapped in Mount Kun …"
"After so many years, he's still alive. I can only say that he's worthy of being called a man."
Gu Changge nodded in realization. He seemed to be somewhat impressed, but he was somewhat thoughtful in his heart.
Although Mount Kun was extremely dangerous, as the saying goes, misfortune and blessing go hand in hand. Naturally, there would be unimaginable opportunities.
The Ji Family's ancestor would not be trapped in Mount Kun for no reason.
