People are fighting, but all members are NPCs

Chapter 21 Lao Deng is the respectful name I give to elders
"Hey, Gu Xun'er's biological father?"

Xiao Yuan was slightly surprised.

Unexpectedly, the first Dou Sheng to visit was the old man Gu Yuan.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense.

After all, he had had an in-depth and easy-to-understand communication with Gu Xun'er before, and she had revealed a lot of information about Emperor Cheng.

Therefore, it was within the plan that the old man Gu Yuan would come to the dreamland.

Just how to say hello?

For no reason, this sentence popped up in his head -

"Yo Lao Deng, is it safe for my will-o'-the-wisp to be parked downstairs?"

Although he really wanted to say this, he thought better of it.

There was no such relationship between him and Gu Xun'er, so it was inappropriate to say that, although he had long known Xun'er's true nature.

However, the moment Xiao Yuan emerged from the Xiao Mansion.

Gu Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank.

So young?

He was fair-faced, handsome, and graceful. Dressed in white, he looked a bit dreamy, yet his features still revealed a hint of childishness.
"Why, Mr. Gu Yuan, are you surprised to see me? You think I'm too young, right?"

"Please forgive me, Senior. Seeing you are so old... Gu Yuan is indeed a little surprised."

Gu Yuan smiled bitterly.

It's not his fault.

Anyone who sees Xiao Yuan's appearance would be surprised. Even though Xun'er had told them in advance, it was still inevitable that they would feel a little surprised after seeing it with their own eyes.

What surprised Gu Yuan the most was that the other party seemed to really have the ability to read minds.

Even though I didn't say anything, my inner thoughts were seen through at a glance.

"I don't have such a lowly ability as mind reading. I told you so when Miss Xun'er came last time.

But even if I can't read minds, I can guess that Mr. Gu Yuan is here to visit me. He must be here to learn how to become an emperor, right?"

"As expected of you, the Dream Master, I can't hide anything from you, Senior... Gu Yuan is indeed here to learn how to become an emperor. If possible, please show me the way forward."

Gu Yuan bowed respectfully.

There was no concealment, and no ulterior motives.

To be precise, after experiencing everything that just happened, Gu Yuan gave up this idea.

With just one sentence, without even using any fighting spirit, he can make the world pale in comparison, and he can know what others are thinking with just one glance.

The most important thing is that even though the opponent was standing right in front of him, he couldn't feel any fluctuation of fighting spirit.

There are only two possibilities for this situation to occur.

First, the other party has no cultivation at all.

Second, the other party's cultivation is far superior to his own, so he cannot detect it.

In Gu Yuan's eyes, Xiao Yuan was like a god looking down upon him, as if he were just an insignificant ant, a toy, a chess piece.
How could such a person be completely without any cultivation?

Therefore, Gu Yuan chose to be honest and planned to gain some favor now.

"Okay, don't think about those nonsense, Old Deng.

Since we are here for the method of becoming an emperor, let's talk somewhere else."

"Lao Deng?"

Just when Gu Yuan was still wondering what Old Deng meant, he saw Xiao Yuan stretch out his hand and slide it in the air a few times.

[Location Change]——[Monster Mountain Range]

Then, the sky shook and the earth collapsed.

With the earth rumbling and shaking, the Xiao family mansion beneath their feet vanished in an instant, replaced by towering foothills and lush, verdant forests that sprouted like bamboo shoots in spring. Even the stars in the sky shifted, their position shifting.

Is it a special method of movement, or a way to change the world?

Gu Yuan was also confused at this moment.

However, during this process, Xiao Yuan suddenly said:

“Please don’t mind, Lao Deng is a respectful title I use for elders.

Although I look very young, I am actually only eighteen years old this year."

Well, not counting the age in the previous life and the time of reincarnation, I am indeed only eighteen years old.

"So, Lao Deng, if you don't mind, you can call me by my name."

Hearing this, Gu Yuan was startled, and a storm suddenly rose in his heart, but then it turned into a bitter smile, and he bowed and said: "Okay, Xiao Yuan."

Gu Yuan didn't expect that Xiao Yuan was actually so young.

At only eighteen years old, he had already become a powerful figure that he could only look up to.
Was it fate, or was it——

Gu Yuan couldn't guess.

But what he was sure of was that Xiao Yuan was probably not a member of the Xiao family.

So he asked tentatively:
"My dear friend Xiao Yuan, I have some connections with the Xiao family, but judging from your appearance, you are not a member of the Xiao family, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan silently turned his head and raised his eyebrows towards Gu Yuan.

Old Deng Gu Yuan still dares to say that he has a connection with the Xiao family?

Rather than saying it is a connection, it is better to say that it is a sin committed by the Xiao clan in some unknown past life.

Before his death, Xiao Xuan asked Gu Yuan, an old man, to take care of the Xiao clan. However, Gu Yuan wiped out the Xiao clan.

Not only did he seize all the resources for himself, he also forced them to migrate to a remote place like Wutan City. Even the entire clan couldn't find a single local-level martial art.

Even if the bloodline of the Xiao family was burned out, as a once powerful family and the leader among the eight families, even if it fell into decline, it could at least find a way to gain a foothold in Zhongzhou.

As a result, he ended up in the barren and barren Northwest Region.

You are really amazing, Gu Yuanlao Deng.

It was also thanks to Xiao Xuan's cousin, Blood Axe Xiao Chen, who was controlled by the Pure Lotus Demon Fire. Otherwise, if he knew about this, he would probably fight to the death to turn the ancient clan upside down.

However, Xiao Yuan did not say this out loud, he just complained in his heart.

What happened to the Xiao family was none of his business.

So I replied calmly:

"I am indeed not from the Xiao family, but I should have some connection with the Xiao family."

However, in the brief moment they were chatting, the earth stopped rumbling.

They came to a place deep in the Warcraft Mountains, a beautiful place nestled between mountains and rivers.

"Come on, Lao Deng, please take a seat and talk."

Xiao Yuan slid the interactive menu again, and a stone platform and two stone benches appeared out of thin air on the grass in front of him, inviting Gu Yuan to take a seat.

"Okay, thank you, Xiao Yuan."

Gu Yuan sat respectfully on the stone bench, with his face straight and serious, looking like a student waiting for his teacher to teach him a lesson.

If outsiders saw this, they would probably be shocked.

As the strongest person in the Douqi Continent, the patriarch of the ancient clan, a powerful figure, he behaved so restrained in front of a 16-year-old boy.

Even Xiao Yuan found it a little funny.

But then, Xiao Yuan took out a teacup out of thin air as if by magic, poured half a cup of hot tea for Gu Yuan, and said:

"Since Lao Deng came here to find the way to become an emperor, let's talk about the Dou Emperor."
