People are fighting, but all members are NPCs

Chapter 138 Trouble
The night is like water, permeating the earth, and the cool moonlight pours down from the sky, covering the entire mountain range with a light silver gauze.

In the center of the mountain range, groups of temples stand one after another, like an ancient beast under the moonlight, exuding a trace of ancient atmosphere.

However, at this moment, these temples are still brightly lit, and people are crowded at the foot of the mountain, walking up the stairs step by step as if they were worshipping, heading towards the top of the mountain.

There are lights and decorations everywhere, and the air is filled with festive atmosphere. It looks like they are celebrating some kind of festival?

"I didn't expect that your ancient clan would have such a lively time."

"Haha, I'm sorry to have made you laugh."

Gu Yuan and Xiao Yuan stood on a mountain far away from these magnificent ancient palaces, chatting casually.

However, seeing that Xiao Yuan seemed very interested in these, he explained:

"My friend, you should have heard from my daughter that her coming-of-age ceremony will be held soon."

"uh-huh."

"These ancient ethnic groups are also here to participate in their coming-of-age ceremony."

At this point, Gu Yuan's voice suddenly paused, and after a long while he continued, "However, it is a shame to say that although our clan has inherited the bloodline of the ancient Dou Emperor, and the clan is strong because of the quality of the bloodline, it is also sad because of the quality of the bloodline.

This ancient sacred mountain range is a holy place in the hearts of all the ancient ethnic groups. Whenever we hold our coming-of-age ceremony, these descendants will bring their descendants here, hoping that someone with a strong bloodline will emerge among them. There will be some surprises every time, but more often, there will be endless disappointment.

Many people committed suicide on the spot because they could not bear the blow of losing their bloodline."

Gu Yuan spoke without any joy or sadness, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes, as if all this was just a rare and ordinary thing.

The good will be eliminated and the bad will be eliminated, and the fittest will survive.

These eight short characters describe all the sufferings in the world and the cruelty of the world.

Xiao Yuan also has a deep understanding of this.

If it weren't for this dream that is so vast that its secrets cannot be explored even now, I am afraid that I will be the same as these ancient people. No, maybe even worse off than them. I will probably be just a nameless passerby.

When the Soul Palace takes action against the Xiao family, he will be one of those who die tragically on the roadside.

"However, Gu Yuanlao Deng, I'm a little curious. If your Gu clan selects bloodlines in this way, then is this how you, Gu Yuanlao Deng, got to where you are today?"

"Young friend Xiao Yuan is joking."

Gu Yuan just smiled slightly and didn't say much.

However, it is enough for people to hear the hidden meaning.

Although the other elders of the ancient tribe were not very clear, one thing was certain: both Gu Yuan and Gu Xun'er were different from these ancient tribe members.

Gu Yuan could probably be said to be the direct descendant of the ancient Dou Emperor.

Otherwise, how could Gu Xun'er possess such excellent talent.

Often, choice is always more important than effort.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

Xiao Yuan shook his head and did not continue to dwell on this topic. He turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man beside him with a smile on his face and said, "Why don't you tell me, Patriarch Gu Yuan, why did you bring me here?

Is it about Tuoshe Gudi? Or is it about Xun'er and the coming-of-age ceremony? Or is it both?" "Hahaha, I really can't hide it from you, my friend." Gu Yuan smiled and said, "I just want to ask you, what do you think of my daughter?"

"Opinion? You mean Xun'er?"

Xiao Yuan's eyes immediately became subtle when he heard this. "Chief Gu Yuan, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Although I, Xiao Yuan, am just a villager and don't quite understand the ins and outs of your big family and the city people, I can still understand some of your words. So, there is no need for Chief Gu Yuan to be so secretive. I don't like it either."

"Haha, I didn't expect that Xiao Yuan is also a man of temperament. Then I won't hide it anymore."

I have to say, he is worthy of being a fighting saint who has lived for thousands of years. Even after he brought up the topic, he didn't even blush at all.

He even said bluntly, "I hope you can stay in the clan for a few more days and attend our clan's coming-of-age ceremony. Then I want to announce your marriage to my daughter to all the forces in the Douqi Continent. What do you think?"

This old fox, he even sold his daughter to himself.

Although he knew it from the beginning, and it was he who had asked Xun'er to come to the dreamland in exchange for the method to become an emperor, he was still a little surprised when he saw Gu Yuan could say this without blushing or beating his heart.

But there is one more thing—

"As for me, there's no problem, but Gu Yuanlao Deng, don't you plan to ask Xun'er's opinion? How do you know if she wants to marry me? What if she doesn't want to?"

"Haha, no one knows a daughter better than her father. As a father, although I'm not always with Xun'er, I still know a little bit about what she's thinking." Gu Yuan smiled slightly and said, "I can see that she has put all her heart and soul into you, my friend."

Especially the scene in the bamboo house on the top of the mountain. Even though he was Xun'er's father, it was the first time he saw Xun'er being so close to a man.

"Alright, alright, now that it's come to this, I have no reason to refuse." Xiao Yuan spread his hands and said, "But Elder Gu Yuan, you said you want to challenge all the forces in Douqi Continent?"

"Although it is the coming-of-age ceremony for the ancient tribe, it is also the coming-of-age ceremony for other tribes. After it is over, the Heavenly Tomb will be opened and you will enter it to train."

Gu Yuan did not hide anything and told him everything.

However, a helpless look appeared on Xiao Yuan's face: "What a trouble! Tianmu won't let me accompany you in, right?"

"Uh"

When asked this question, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Gu Yuan's old face.

Although the number of places in the Heavenly Mausoleum is limited, it is not a problem to free one up, but the problem is that Xiao Yuan is the Dou Emperor!

And according to Xun'er, Xiao Yuan is the Dou Emperor simply because there is only the Dou Emperor level in the Douqi Continent.

Even though it was separated from the original body, the clone standing in front of him was a real Dou Di.

Even if their ancient clan is looking forward to Xiao Yuan entering the Heavenly Tomb, I am afraid that other clans may not be so eager. If Xiao Yuan wants to force his way in, who can stop him?
Gu Yuan thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Young friend, do you want to enter the Heavenly Tomb?"

"No, it's such a troublesome thing. Whoever wants to do it can do it. Don't come to me."

After saying that, Xiao Yuan suddenly waved his sleeves, turned around, and his figure gradually faded until it completely disappeared.

It's like escaping into the void.

Looking at the place where Xiao Yuan disappeared, Gu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

If Xiao Yuan could be persuaded to enter the Heavenly Tomb, Xun'er would definitely gain the most from this trip.
Little did he know that Xiao Yuan didn't care about the things in the Heavenly Tomb at all. After all, the only thing that interested him was the remaining soul of Xiao Xuan, the ancestor of the Xiao clan.
