C690 At the Gu Residence
"The Maple Flame Valley, one of the 28 valleys of the Central Region, is indeed somewhat unique. From the looks of it, these maple trees are over a thousand years old. Many of them are over a thousand years old. The red maple leaves are the best supplementary ingredients to refine medicinal Pill of Third Grades." Ling Xiao looked at these bright red and purple maple trees and praised.
After he came out of the Setting Sun Mountain Range, he immediately brought Liu Qun, Lyi Xue, Bing Ruoshui and Yao Qingmin to the Maple Flame Valley. The medicinal Black Sheeps did not like to interact with others and were placed into the medicinal Golden Wolf Kings by him along with the medicinal Medicine Tripods.
s for the time being. When they asked about the whereabouts of the medicinal Medicine Tripods, he only did it perfunctorily.
"The four mountain ranges of the Maple Flame Valley are filled with Tier 3 spiritual lands. Being able to grow many medicinal Spirit Herb of Third Ranks is nothing to the Gu family of the alchemist family. " There are even grade five spiritual fields in the Medicine Sect. There are grade five spiritual herbs everywhere, "Liu Qun said from the side.
"So that's how it is. With these spirit herbs, even more young disciples can squander them!" Ling Xiao nodded slightly and said.
"May I know why Young Master has come to the Gu family? Could it be that he wants the people of the Gu family to help you refine the Pill?" Liu Qun asked again.
Yao Qingmin, who was quick to speak, said from the side, "Young Master doesn't need other people to refine medicinal Pills. He himself is a tier six alchemist.
"What, Young... Young Master is a tier six alchemist?" Liu Qun almost bit his tongue in shock and stuttered.
"Humph, of course!" Yao Qingmin straightened her full breasts and said.
Looking at her spirited appearance, It was as if the identity of that tier 6 alchemist was herself.
"Young Master, this... this is real?" Liu Qun asked from the side.
"If you believe it, then it is true. If you don't believe it, then it is false." Ling Xiao tried to keep him in suspense.
Liu Qun revealed a hint of excitement. He now believed that Ling Xiao had the ability to make him take that step.
The group of people arrived at the main gate of the Gu family compound. Just as they were about to step forward and let the guard notify them, a woman ran out of the compound in a hurry. She almost bumped into Ling Xiao. Fortunately, Ling Xiao reacted fast enough to avoid the collision.
"Why are you all blocking my path? You all want to die!" Gu Tingting held a stomach full of anger. She had just run out of the inner courtyard and thought of the market to take a breather. She did not expect that she would be blocked by someone. Immediately, she scolded in a very unreasonable manner.
Ling Xiao frowned and was just about to speak. Yao Qingmin, who was behind him, was the first to shout, "You bitch! You were the one who bumped into me, but you still scolded me!
"Qingmin!" Lyi Xue immediately scolded.
Yao Qingmin was too straightforward. This was someone else's territory, so she should be more patient. This was also the tightness that Lyi Xue had developed over the years.
"Okay. Who are you guys? You actually dare to scold this lady? Do you know who this lady is? How dare you behave atrociously in the territory of the Gu family? Kill them all! Gu Tingting looked at the three girls in front of her and felt jealous. She didn't even sense their strength and ordered someone to kill them.
One had to say that Gu Tingting's temperament was far from Gu Jiaojiao's.
The few King Rank guards didn't get close and were immediately suppressed by Liu Qun's powerful force. They couldn't move.
"The little kid from the Gu family is so rude. I think I, Old Liu, have to teach you a lesson on behalf of your master." Liu Qun stood out immediately. His powerful aura made Gu Tingting unable to catch her breath.
At this time, a few figures rushed out from the courtyard of the Gu family.
"Who dares to cause trouble in the Gu family?" A startled cry sounded. Several Celestial Sovereign warriors landed in front of Ling Xiao and the others.
"Gu He brat, do you recognize me?" Liu Qun said to the Celestial Sovereign of Middle Rank warrior who was leading the group.
The Celestial Sovereign of Middle Rank named Gu He looked at Liu Qun and immediately went up to him and said, "So it's Uncle Liu. I didn't know you were here. I apologize for not welcoming you.
Ling Xiao and the others didn't expect Liu Qun to know someone from the Gu family.
"I haven't been here for many years. I'm afraid your old man doesn't remember this brother of mine," Liu Qun said with an unhappy expression.
Gu He looked at the suppressed Gu Tingting and seemed to understand something. He immediately said, "Uncle Liu, look at you. Tell me. My father was still nagging at you a few days ago. If there is anything, please come to the courtyard and tell me. Don't make things difficult for these juniors.
Liu Qun snorted and dispersed the pressure. Gu Tingting and the guards instantly fell to the ground.
The few of them revealed some fear. Gu Tingting did not dare to say anything. She glared at the group of people and left in a hurry.
"This time, I did not come to look for your old man. I came with my young master." Liu Qun said.
"Your young master?" Gu He was stunned for a moment and exclaimed.
As far as he knew, Liu Qun had always been the leader of Green Cat mercenary group. He had never sought refuge from any force. His father, Gu Xuan, had asked Liu Qun many times to come to their family property to worship the previous elder. Where did he get his young master from now?
Gu He's eyes fell on Ling Xiao, who had an extraordinary temperament.
He almost did not sense Ling Xiao's aura, but he found that Ling Xiao had an aura of an emperor suppressing his heart. It made him feel fear in his heart.
Ling Xiao cupped his hands towards Gu He and said, "I am Ling Xiao. I once met your young miss Gu Jiaojiao in the War Abyss. This time, I was invited here. Please let me know.
"You... you are First Throne Ling Xiao?" Gu He said in shock.
The Celestial Sovereign warriors behind him were also shocked.
Ling Xiao nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I am!
"Alright, alright, you guys follow me into the inner courtyard first. I will get someone to inform the young lady immediately," Gu He said excitedly.
He really did not expect that this young man in front of him was actually First Throne. He was an expert who suppressed the younger generation of the eighteen forces. He did not dare to look at Ling Xiao as a junior. Moreover, Liu Qun's' young master 'made him guess Ling Xiao's identity even more.
Gu He brought Ling Xiao and the others to the main hall. Putting aside Ling Xiao's identity as First Throne, Just the strength of Liu Qun's half-step Sovereign was enough to make them treat each other as honored guests.
Not long after they sat down, two powerful auras flew over rapidly. A hearty voice was heard. "Brother Liu is really a rare guest. In the past, he has invited you many times but did not come to your door. Now that he has come personally, I, Gu Xuan, am overwhelmed by the favor.
An old man and a middle-aged man walked into the main hall at the same time. The one who spoke was precisely that old man. He was Gu He's father, Gu Xuan. He was a Peak of Celestial Sovereign warrior. As well as the identity of the Medicine Refining Master of Fifth Grade, the middle-aged man beside him had a dignified bearing. He had a dignified aura, and although his strength wasn't as strong as the old man's, he still had a dignified aura. However, he was also a Celestial Sovereign of Middle Rank warrior, and he was the patriarch of the Gu family, Kwoo Tan. He was also a Sixth Grade Alchemist.
Normally, an alchemist would have a certain degree of difficulty in achieving exceptionally high accomplishments in strength. They must have spent most of their time and energy refining pills, and most of their strength was raised with the help of medicinal Pills. The higher their cultivation realm, the harder it was for them to increase their strength. Their foundation also became increasingly superficial, and they were much worse than their combat strength at the same level.
Hence, even though Kwoo Tan and Gu Xuan's strength looked formidable, in reality, they were only superficial, much weaker than their combat strength at the same level.
Ling Xiao and the others stood up and bowed slightly to Kwoo Tan and Gu Xuan.
Only then did Liu Qun say, "Brother Gu is serious. Old Liu, this kind of boorish man, wants to kill every day for his livelihood. How can I be so carefree and self-satisfied like Younger Brother!
Gu Xuan smiled and then introduced to Kwoo Tan, "Family Head, this is precisely one of the three great mercenary groups in the Dusk Mountain Range, Green Cat Mercenary Company Commander Liu Qun. He is also the good brother that I made friends with when I was out adventuring in the past. Our family also has quite a number of spirit grass transactions that came from the Green Cat Mercenary Company.
Kwoo Tan had obviously heard of Liu Qun's name, so his attitude immediately became much warmer. "So it is Commander Liu. Kwoo Tan is impolite.
Liu Qun was already a half-step Sovereign. He was on par with the elders of Gu family. Kwoo Tan didn't dare to neglect him.
Liu Qun did not stand on ceremony. He immediately led the two of them to Ling Xiao and said, "This is my young master, Ling Xiao. Liu Qun is only accompanying us on this trip. I hope that the Gu family Master and Brother Gu will not take offense!
"Your family's young master, Ling Xiao?" Both of them were stunned.
Kwoo Tan immediately said, "Could it be the name of First Throne, the Ling Xiao Throne?
Ling Xiao cupped his hands and replied, "Yes, I am. I have made the Gu family's Sect Master laugh.
"Haha, good, good... as expected of a young hero. I heard from my granddaughter, Jiaojiao, that she is able to enter the ranks of Combat Emperors because of your protection!" Kwoo Tan said with a smile.
First Throne was definitely just a junior. He shouldn't have allowed Kwoo Tan to be so polite, but according to the legend, Ling Xiao was the disciple of the legendary one. This was confirmed by an elder of the Spirit Martial Pavilion. Kwoo Tan didn't dare to be negligent.
"The Gu family Master's words are serious. He has come here this time. One is to catch up, The second reason was because... "Before Ling Xiao could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a voice.
Boss, you're finally here! " Ye Yunfeng's voice sounded outside the hall.
After that, he and Gu Jiaojiao entered the hall together. Both of them bowed to Kwoo Tan and Gu Xuan before Ye Yunfeng stood beside Ling Xiao. He looked very excited.2
Right now, he needed his boss to make the decision for him. His boss had come at the right time.
"Grandpa, he is Ling Xiao. This year's First Throne, even that monstrous genius from the Spirit Martial Pavilion was suppressed by him." Gu Jiaojiao pointed at Ling Xiao and introduced him to Kwoo Tan.
Kwoo Tan stroked his beard and smiled. "Grandpa already knows!
"Right, Grandfather Ling Xiao is still a tier six alchemist. Let him replace that Qi Tong to represent our Gu family in participating in the competition!" Gu Jiaojiao could not wait to get to the main topic.
Kwoo Tan and Gu Xuan's expressions changed. Clearly, they did not expect Ling Xiao to participate in the competition. To have such an identity.
Just as Kwoo Tan was about to say something, another three people walked in from outside the main hall.
One of them was wearing the uniform of the Gu family, while the other two were wearing alchemist robes. One of them was Qi Tong, whom he had seen before. There was still an evil smile on his face, and beside him was a short and fat old man whose hair was about to fall off.
This old man was his master, Wuu Fu. He was at the Medicine Refining Master of Seventh Grade realm, and was also a powerful expert at the half-step Sovereign realm.
