1031: C1031 Fourth Elder

C1031 Fourth Elder

Lee Zongjiu was given the title of State Protecting Master.

The Bailu Manor had also been renamed as Bailu Residence. It was a plaque bestowed by the emperor.

With Lee Zongjiu's strong background, it was equivalent to opening a path for him in the city.

After all, in order to eliminate the Gu family, Lee Zongjiu had gotten rid of a major threat in the Holy Flame Dynasty. This was a reward that he deserved.

As for Lee Zongjiu himself, he didn't really care about these rewards and titles.

Let's talk about the situation in the city first.

The Freshmen Pill Refining Competition had come to an end.

The Longevity Institute had won the first place, the Heavenly Stellar Medicine Mansion had won the second place, followed by the Canghai Academy.

The dignified Heavenly Stellar Medicine Mansion had actually been defeated by the other party.

They were pincered by two academies.

This made Lingyan very angry as well.

Therefore, these freshmen had basically already bid farewell to the good days.

Those who were called academies usually opened up two types of teaching, one was martial arts, and the other was medicinal pills.

Of course, you could also be equipped with some other courses, such as elemental patterns, forging, array formations and medicine. As long as you could attain the qualifications to teach in this course, you could open up a class and recruit students after passing the certification.

Currently, the Canghai Academy was the academy with the most content. There were thirty-two courses, and Alchemy was just one of them.

Even so, the other party still managed to get into the top three.

Moreover, chasing after the Heavenly Stellar Medicine Mansion only made the pressure on the Heavenly Stellar Medicine Mansion very great. If they didn't do well, the position of this big brother of the alchemy world would probably be lost.

As for the Longevity Institute...

The other party's strength was strong after all, a truly formidable alchemy sect. They weren't just casually bragging. That sort of thing.

It was already very good that Heavenly Stellar Medicine Mansion could develop to this extent.

However, Lingyan wasn't limited to this.

"No, I have to find a more powerful and more abnormal teacher to train you guys."

Lingyan suddenly thought of a person.

However, Lee Zongjiu was definitely not willing to come. He did not know what this guy was busy with all day. He had even gotten rid of a supreme being.

This made Lingyan very shocked in his heart.

He never thought that Lee Zongjiu would go and deal with the Supreme Being who had just broken through. He even killed that person. When he came back, he was conferred the title of Imperial Advisor. This made people subconsciously think that this was the case.

In fact, Lee Zongjiu was sent out by the Imperial Family.

Anyway, no matter what, Lingyan went straight to the fruit stall opposite Bailu Residence and bought some fruits. Then, he tied a fruit basket and carried it into Bailu Residence.

Lingyan had come to bother Lee Zongjiu again, but this time, Lingyan did not see Lee Zongjiu. He was stopped by Zhao in advance.

"What? Going into seclusion?!"

"Yes, yes." Zhao nodded innocently.

"Didn't this guy just come back? Why did he shut up?"

Lingyan frowned.

"Young master is injured."

Zhao said in a low voice.

It was normal to be injured. After all, Lee Zongjiu had gone to kill a Supreme Expert. It would not be normal if he was not injured.

"Oh, I see. I'll come back in a few days."

Lingyan nodded.

The Gu family in the city.

The one with the most awkward position was Gu Sha.

Gu Sha was also from the Punishment Hall. He was also an ancient soldier guard.

However, it was said that all the ancient soldiers were destroyed by Lee Zongjiu in an instant.

What do you think Gu Sha should do with Lee Zongjiu?

Initially, he was only assigned to temporarily take over some of the Gu family's business in Holy Flame Royal City and take care of the situation.

But now, the main family had been wiped out.

This made Gu Sha and the others go where they should go.

Furthermore, they had heard that Lee Zongjiu had already announced that anyone who dared to claim to be a disciple of the Gu family of Jin Prefecture would be killed without question.

Gu Sha, Gu Yao, and the others gathered for a meeting.

"Have you found out that the patriarch is really dead?"

Gu Sha asked. However, the situation in Jin Prefecture was already known by everyone in the world. There was no need to verify this point.

Even if there were ten thousand doubts in his heart, he had already destroyed you.

"If the family head was still alive, why would he let Lee Zongjiu come back alive?"

The group of people shook their heads and sighed, their faces ashen.

Their Gu family had died just like that?

Two days ago, they had just held a banquet to celebrate the family head breaking through to the Supreme Stage realm. It was only a matter of time before they dealt with Lee Zongjiu, saving the Gu family's face.

However, in the blink of an eye, the entire Gu family of Jin Prefecture was taken by someone.

Moreover, Lee Zongjiu had also announced that no one from the Gu family would be able to say that he was from the Jin Prefecture in the future. If this relationship wasn't completely severed, he would be regarded as Lee Zongjiu's enemy.

"I don't believe it. If we don't take the initiative to provoke this guy, he can still take the initiative to kill us without any excuse."

Gu Yao clearly didn't believe this. He didn't believe that Lee Zongjiu could be so lawless. He could do whatever he wanted with just his hand covering the sky.

Furthermore, this was the Imperial City, right under Holy Flame Emperor's nose.

"No, I can't be reckless."0

Gu Sha said in a deep voice.

Recently, he had been trying to contact some of the surviving experts of the Gu family. He was responsible for the people in other places. After all, the Gu family had a lot of businesses and some important places. I need someone to watch.

However, there was no response from Gu Sha's message.

Could it be that these people were unwilling to admit their relationship with the Gu family and wanted to take this opportunity to establish their own sect?

Gu Sha didn't know the exact situation, but these people had all lost contact. It must be unusual. Otherwise, he would have replied to all of them. He wouldn't have run so fast.

"Fourth Elder, have you contacted him?"

Among the Gu family, the only one who could walk out and carry the flag was the Fourth Elder of the Gu family.

Regardless of strength or qualifications, they were the most suitable.

"Not yet. However, recently there was news that Fourth Elder appeared in the Sandstorm Ancient City and has already sent people there."

"The only hope is Fourth Elder."

The Sandstorm Ancient City.

This place had been eroded by sandstorms all year round. At the same time, there were also many poisonous snakes and poisonous insects. Very few people were willing to come to such a place. However, this kind of place was usually very resourceful and attracted many adventurers.

An old man covered in a coarse cloth mask sat in front of a tea stall, and he was reading a letter from a distant place.

His entire face was covered with only a pair of eyes.

"What, the Gu family... such a big thing happened."

Seeing the contents of the letter, the man immediately stood up in excitement.

"Damn it!"

Just as the old man was about to return, he noticed that something was not right.

A person quickly approached from behind.

"You're courting death!"

The old man was about to turn around and strike out with his palm when he realized that there was no one behind him.

Chi!

Just as he turned around to return, he saw a cold light flash past his eyes. After that, all the strength in his body was instantly drained away like a deflated pufferfish.
