__Jiama Empire, Utan City!__
As one of the top three families in Utan City, the Xiao family has a good reputation in the city.
Especially since in the Xiao family, there is a genius child, Xiao Yan, who achieved Five Star Dou Zhi Qi at just seven years old, which made Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, very proud.
However, today's Xiao family is a little different. In a certain elegantly furnished room, two figures are facing each other.
"Xun'er, have you really decided to stay in the Xiao family? The clan is ready to send another person instead of you, you don't have to force yourself."
Gu Yuan spoke in a gentle voice.
The plan to choose another clan member to go to the Xiao family was originally set, but Gu Xun'er suddenly changed her mind and said she would go to the Xiao family. Gu Yuan would naturally not refuse, so he brought her here. It's just that Gu Xun'er's thoughts changed too fast. He was a little confused, so before he left, he wanted to confirm that this was her final decision.
After all, when there are alternatives, he doesn't want to harm his precious daughter. If Gu Xun'er doesn't want to stay in the Xiao family, he won't force her.
"You don't have to worry about me, father, I'm willing to stay in the Xiao family, I'm doing it voluntarily, without reluctance."
Gu Xun'er shook her head and said.
The biggest reason why she was reluctant to go to the Xiao family is that she didn't want to be separated from Gu Xiao.
But now Gu Xiao has disappeared for over three months, without the slightest sign of being found, and without Gu Xiao in the clan, she doesn't have much sense to stay.
Furthermore, instead of staying in the ancient world and foolishly waiting for news of Gu Xiao, she might as well go out and look for him on her own. Maybe she's looking for a needle in a haystack, but at least there's some comfort in knowing she wasn't idle in her quest to find him again.
It's better than being alone in the ancient world.
Gu Xiao could not be in the ancient world, but in some corner of the continent, maybe someday, if fate allowed, she would meet Gu Xiao again.
She had always believed that she and her brother Gu Xiao had a special unspoken understanding that no one else had. There was an invisible line connecting them.
While this idea is silly and naive, it's something she believes wholeheartedly.
Hearing Gu Xun'er's words, Gu Yuan lightly sighed, perhaps he didn't understand his daughter's intention at first, but seeing Gu Xun'er's expression now, he had some hunch about her thoughts.
"I will pay close attention to Xiao'er's matter and send more people to look for him. I will let you know as soon as I hear from him."
"You also have to take care of yourself, don't be too sad, I don't think Xiao'er would like to see you like that, he cares a lot about you."
Gu Yuan consoled her softly.
"Xun'er knows." Gu Xun'er nodded slightly and said softly.
"You don't have to worry too much about ancient jade. You can take it if you have the chance, but the Xiao family's ancient jade can't really decide anything, after all, there are eight pieces."
Gu Yuan said, for Gu Di's Tomb, he really wanted to, but his focus was more on Gu Xiao. To him, Gu Xiao had a mysterious origin, and someone who once exuded Dou Di's aura held greater attraction than an ancient tomb.
After all, collecting the eight ancient jade, to be honest, is a bit unrealistic with the strength of the Gu clan.
Although he has confidence in his clan, he is not so arrogant as to believe that the Gu Clan can be enemies of all other Ancient Clans. Apart from anything else, the soul clan is an obstacle they cannot overcome.
In contrast, it might be more reliable to discover the secret of becoming a Dou Di from Gu Xiao's body.
Therefore, for Gu Xiao, his old clan must bring him back, and the necessary quest is absolutely indispensable. They must find Gu Xiao before the soul clan, otherwise, if the soul clan manages to get their hands on him, things are going to be troublesome.
"Xun'er understands." Hearing Gu Yuan's words, Gu Xun'er nodded slightly. In fact, she didn't really care much about the search for the ancient jade. For her, the task of searching for ancient jade was only secondary, and she cared more about her search for her brother Gu Xiao.
"Alright, then I'll leave first. If you have any problems, you call Ling Ying and Lin Ye and they will obey you. If you find a problem that cannot be solved by them, you should contact the clan directly." . Naturally, the clan will do anything to help you."
Gu Yuan said warmly.
"Xun'er remember, father, have a good trip." Gu Xun'er replied, indicating that she understood his words.
Gu Yuan nodded and gave Gu Xun'er another long look, assessing whether she really wants to remain in the Xiao family. Then, with a thought, a door from space appeared. He walked straight in, disappearing into place.
Gu Xun'er looked at the place where Gu Yuan disappeared, and turned around after a while, her small hand couldn't help but caress her chest, at the place where the Yin Necklace was, her beautiful big eyes flickered softly, filled with thoughts. ...
…
The sky gradually darkened, and Gu Xun'er turned off the moonstone that lit up the room, and the entire room suddenly darkened.
About half an hour later, a small figure suddenly appeared in front of Gu Xun'er's door.
"This should be Sister Xun'er's room."
The figure said softly, with an odd smile on its face, "This new sister Xun'er seems to have a weak body. As a good big brother, it's my duty to help her succeed in her cultivation. Just transfer a little bit. of my Dou Qi to warm her body, unfortunately, I'm always so kind."
The figure said, he walked slowly, opened the door latch cautiously, then gently pushed the door open and walked towards the bed.
With the faint moonlight falling outside the window, the figure saw Gu Xun'er's delicate and lovely face, she looked like a porcelain doll.
"This sister Xun'er is very beautiful, much better than Xiao Yu's wife."
The figure muttered, and reached out to Gu Xun'er.
And just as his hand was about to touch Gu Xun'er, an invisible pressure hit him, suppressing him right in place, unable to move a single muscle.
Gu Xun'er also woke up instantly, and seeing the figure in front of her and his hand outstretched, her pretty face was suddenly covered with a layer of ice and her eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Old Ling!" Gu Xun'er spoke, and a shadowy figure suddenly appeared.
"Who is this person?" Gu Xun'er asked coldly.
"This is the third young master of the Xiao family." Ling Ying replied.
"The third young master of the Xiao family?" Gu Xun'er's eyes flickered slightly, and slowly the murderous intent in her eyes faded. She didn't have much interest in Ancient Jade, but she couldn't completely tear away her cordiality with the Xiao family.
"Take him outside and break one of his legs!" Gu Xun'er ordered coldly.
Brother Gu Xiao said that anyone who has bad thoughts about her should be killed, she was being merciful just to give the Xiao family some face.
"Miss, breaking a leg, that's..." Ling Ying said softly. After all, the young lady came here on a mission. Was she really going to break a leg of the Xiao family's third child?
"Yes, breaking a leg is very merciful. Take him outside and break both of his legs." Gu Xun'er said, with a little chill in her voice.
"Which?" Ling Ying was shocked, did the number of legs that would be broken increased?
"Old Ling, what are you hesitating about, take him out." Seeing Ling Ying motionless, Gu Xun'er ordered with a bit of steel in his tone.
"Yes ma'am!" Seeing that Gu Xun'er seemed to have made up his mind, Ling Ying stopped hesitating and pulled the figure straight out of the room.
"No! Dad, help!" Seeing that he was actually pulled out, the figure became anxious and suddenly screamed.
He didn't want to have his legs broken!
"Boy, you can only blame yourself for your own misfortune. And if you dare to think of revenge on the Young Miss, not even the gods can save you."
Ling Ying's voice dropped, and with a slight wave of his right hand, two strands of Dou Qi moved towards the figure.
"Ah!" Accompanied by the sound of bones breaking, a high-pitched scream suddenly resounded in the dark...
