Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

These words were indeed spoken by Yao Ye to Xiao Wei seriously and solemnly. When she said this, Xiao Wei also saw determination in Yao Ye's eyes.

However, determination is determination and pain is pain, these are two different things.

No matter how determined you are, the pain will still come, and this cannot be concealed.

"But I haven't heard Ye'er's wailing since this morning. Aren't you going to train today?"

Jia Xingtian raised his eyebrows slightly in doubt, and Xiao Yi replied with a smile.

"His Highness Yaoye ran away."

"Ran???"

Jia Xingtian was stunned for a moment, and Xiao Ji continued.

"I couldn't find her in the palace today. I heard from the maids that Her Highness Yao Ye sneaked out of the palace before dawn." Xiao Yu paused, then continued, "Her Highness Yao Ye has not missed a single day of training in the past two months. Let her relax today."

"Haha. This kid."

Jia Xingtian smiled helplessly and shook his head, but he was not disappointed with Yao Ye.

If Yao Ye really couldn't hold on and came to tell him, Jia Xingtian would immediately remove Xiao Ji from the position of imperial teacher.

Xing Tian asked Xiao Ji to teach Yao Ye in order to make Yao Ye better, but in fact it was just icing on the cake. Even without Xiao Ji's teaching, Yao Ye made him very satisfied.

But since Yao Ye didn't come to find him, it proved that Yao Ye didn't want Xiao Ling's training to stop. Sneaking out today should be just like Xiao Ling said, just to relax for a day.

But to be honest, Xiao Ling's training was indeed a bit harsh.

As for Jia Xingtian, I really don’t know how to evaluate him.

This is already a very euphemistic way of putting it. Xiao Ji's training is not just strict, it is just one step away from risking his life. He does not show any restraint at all just because Yao Ye is the future heir to the royal family.

Thanks to this, Jia Xingtian understood a little bit why the Xiao siblings were so strong. Even when he was young, his training was not so demanding.

"That's it, don't just improve her strength, I hope you can teach her other aspects as well." Jia Xingtian raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "That child will be the queen in the future, she can't be so naive all the time."

"Don't worry, I have already prepared the course and will start teaching it in a while."

"Well, I'll leave it to you then." Jia Xingtian nodded and said, "In the past two months, you have not only taught Ye'er, but you have also been worrying about the affairs of the Snake People. Thank you for your hard work. Since Ye'er is taking a day off today, you should also take a day off and have a good rest."

"Since Mr. Jia said so, it would be disrespectful for Xiao Yu to refuse."

"Go."

Xiao Jing lowered his head slightly in response, and Xingtian waved his hand lightly, and Xiao Jing turned and left the room.

As soon as he left the room, Xiao Wei ran into an acquaintance in the corridor.

The Jia Ma Empire belongs to Dan Wang Furukawa.

However, compared to the title of Dan King, Gu He now has another more authoritative identity.

Gama Empire, President of the Alchemist Guild.

That’s right, President Fa Ma announced his retirement a month ago, and Gu He took over his position as the new president of the Alchemist Guild.

When Fa Ma came to the palace to discuss this matter with Jia Xingtian, Jia Xingtian kept complaining to him.

Among them, who are from the same generation, Yun Yun took over the Yunlan Sect in Yunshan ten years ago and is the one who lives the most comfortable life. Although Hai Bodong and Tengshan have established the Mitel Family, he basically does not care about anything and is in a state of having nothing to worry about.

Originally, he had Fa Ma to accompany him, and Xing Tian was also feeling the responsibility that he had on him.

But now that Fa Ma has abdicated, Jia Xingtian suddenly felt that his responsibilities had increased, and his mentality became uneasy.

Damn, among us, I have the heaviest burden, but in the end, I'm still the only one holding on, while you guys went off to enjoy yourself first!

Because of this, Jia Xingtian was in a really bad mood those few days. Seeing his old friends leisurely and comfortable all day long, while he was busy like a dog here, anyone would feel unbalanced.

However, there is no way.

The higher the position, the greater the responsibility. Fa Ma and others can abdicate. First, the younger generations are really promising. Second, given their positions, no major chaos will occur even if they abdicate.

But it was different for him. He was in a position that shouldered the future of the Gama Empire. Although Yao Ye made Jia Xingtian very pleased, he really couldn't leave the state affairs to her with confidence. What's more, the Snake People had just been stabilized and it was the time when troubles were most likely to occur. No matter how unwilling he was, Jia Xingtian had to shoulder it himself.

In this regard, Jia Xingtian could only ponder in his heart.

I really want to abdicate soon.

Chapter 313 Make up for the mistake

"President Koga."

Seeing Gu He, Xiao Wei raised his hands and greeted him solemnly. Gu He also waved his hands helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"Please don't call me president. I get a headache when I hear the word president now."

Before the Yunlan Sect was completely liquidated, Gu He had always been a nominal elder of the Yunlan Sect. On weekdays, he only needed to show up in the Yunlan Sect occasionally to meet the needs of the Yunlan Sect. The rest of the time he could be as free as he wanted.

However, two months ago, after the Yunlan Sect was liquidated, Gu He could no longer stay in the Yunlan Sect.

Although helping the royal family was not only Gu He's personal wish, but also an active request from Yun Yun, the leader of the Yunlan Sect, and Yun Yun also told Gu He not to mind it, Gu He still couldn't bring himself to do it.

No matter what, what he did was stabbing someone in the back. Even though he had discussed it with Yun Yun in advance, Gu He was too embarrassed to go back.

In addition, he had already completely understood that there was no hope for him and Yun Yun.

Continuing to stay in the Yunlan Sect means having to deal with Yun Yun frequently. Even though Gu He has already accepted Xiao Yan in his heart and no longer feels unwilling, he cannot help feeling upset when he sees that the person he once pursued has someone else and is even pregnant with the other's child.

There is really no other way. Gu He himself admitted that he is not that open-minded. Since he feels uncomfortable seeing Yun Yun, he should just stay away from her.

This incident also fulfilled Gu He's wish. He could also take this opportunity to leave Yunlan Sect and slowly let go of his worries.

In short, out of sight, out of mind.

At this moment, Fa Ma suddenly came to him and wanted to pass the position of president of the Alchemist Guild to him.

The Alchemy King of the Jia Ma Empire, a sixth-rank alchemist, is still young. In Fa Ma's mind, there is no one in the entire Jia Ma Empire more suitable to succeed him than Gu He.

Seeing that Fa Ma, who had been so kind to him, made such a sincere proposal to him, and that he had not decided where to go after leaving Yunlan Sect, Gu He accepted the offer without thinking too much since he thought about managing the Alchemist Guild was in line with his job.

However, within a week, Furukawa regretted his decision.

It was at this time that Gu He realized that being able to refine medicine and being able to manage are two completely different things, even if he was managing the Alchemist Guild.

After he succeeded as the president of the Alchemist Guild, he was faced with a large number of problems almost every day, such as handovers, orders, accounts, alchemist assessments, arrangements for his subordinates, and so on. Moreover, each matter could only be handled by the president Gu He himself.

Every day when he opened his eyes, he was greeted by countless calls of "President" from his subordinates, which made Gu He feel overwhelmed. This was the first time that he felt so disgusted with a word.

After working for more than a month, Gu He really didn't have any free time at all. Basically, all his energy was spent on dealing with the affairs of the Alchemist Guild. After finally finishing those things, he had to speed up to help his alchemists to refine pills to be sent to Chisha City.

Although they were just some low-level Qi-Restoring Pills and were not difficult to refine, no matter how easy it was to refine the Qi-Restoring Pills, Gu He could not withstand refining hundreds of them a day.

But I have to do it myself. I am now the president of the Alchemist Guild. If I don't stick to my principles, how can my subordinates be willing to work for me?

It was not until today that Gu He barely got used to dealing with these things. After sending all the bills that needed to be reimbursed from the Alchemist Guild to the royal family today, he was able to get a chance to breathe.

Gu He finally understood why Fa Ma had such a relieved expression after handing over the position of president to him.

I really am.

Gu He didn't know what to say. He never expected that Fa Ma, the highly respected senior, would actually set such a big trap for his junior.

To be honest, when Fa Ma passed the position to Gu He, even if he just mentioned the operation of the Alchemist Guild a little, Gu He would definitely not do it.

Anyone who knows Gu He knows that he is afraid of trouble, and Fa Ma is no exception.

But precisely because Fa Ma knew this, he could not explain it to Gu He in advance, because Fa Ma knew very well that once he said it, even if he just mentioned it slightly, Gu He would definitely not succeed him as the chairman.

If Gu He doesn't take the job, then Fa Ma, who can't find any other suitable candidate, will have to continue to stay in this position, and Fa Ma is definitely unwilling to do that.

Not to mention anything else, just the orders needed by Chisha City during this period of time are hard for Fa Ma, an old man, to bear. He finally has this opportunity to retire peacefully, so he will definitely try his best to shift the responsibility to Gu He first.

As for the rest, it all depends on Gu He.

To put it nicely, Fa Ma believes in Gu He and will definitely not let him down.

To put it bluntly, the Alchemist Guild is now handed over to Gu He, and Gu He will be responsible for any problems. Fa Ma himself is now free of worries and lives a happy life.

Of course, having said that, if Gu He really fails, Fa Ma will definitely take over.

Fortunately, Gu He did not disappoint Fa Ma just as he expected.

"Haha~" Seeing Gu He's haggard expression, Xiao Yu couldn't help but chuckle, "It seems that Mr. Gu He hasn't stopped recently."

Xiao Yu said this, smiling and spreading out one hand.

"The elixirs that Mr. Guhe has made during this period have added a lot of impetus to the reconstruction of Chisha City. I have always wanted to thank you for this."

"It just so happens that today is also a rare day for me to rest. If Mr. Gu He has nothing to do today, how about I go with you to relax? It's a good opportunity to discuss the supply of materials to Chisha City."

"You are not relaxing here, you are just asking me to work overtime."

Gu He smiled bitterly and shook his head. Xiao Yi smiled, did not answer, turned and walked to the end of the corridor. Gu He also followed slowly behind him. The two of them left the palace one after the other and walked towards the most prosperous street in the Holy City of Gama.

On the way, Xiao Wei turned his head slightly and stared at Gu He's profile.

Just as she had just said, the reason she made this invitation was indeed to thank Gu He for his contribution to the construction of Chisha City during this period. Not only did he have to deal with a lot of affairs just after taking office, but he also had to take time out to supply elixirs. From Gu He's slightly haggard face, it can be seen that he has been worried a lot.

But this reason is just one of them.

Xiao Jing’s real purpose is something else.

"Mr. Gu He." Xiao Yu spoke slowly and asked softly, "Do you know about Sect Master Yun's affairs?"

Hearing Xiao Wei's sudden question, Gu He was stunned for a moment, then he reacted, pushed his glasses, and said with a gleam in his eyes.

"You mean, the matter between Yun Yun and your brother?"

".As expected, you also know about this matter."

After hearing Gu He's answer, Xiao Ji knew that he did know it. After all, the alchemist's soul power is not just for show.

And it is very likely that Gu He is the first person besides Yun Yun to know about this.

"Ah, my little brother is such a worry." Xiao Yu scratched his hair with a headache and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I just guessed based on the reactions of Senior Yunshan and Sect Master Yun before. I was really confirmed after your answer."

"Is it."

Gu He chuckled softly and said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Having Sect Master Yun as your sister-in-law is something worth being happy about, right? Why would you worry about it?"

"Mr. Gu He, please stop joking." Xiao Yu sighed softly, "Under normal circumstances, if Sect Master Yun married Yan'er, I, as her elder sister, would naturally be happy. Sect Master Yun's identity, strength, status, and personality are all superior. In comparison, Yan'er is definitely the one who is marrying above her station."

"But the premise is that Yan'er and the daughter of the Nalan family are not engaged."

If Nalan Yanran didn't like Xiao Yan, that would be easy to deal with. After all, the engagement between the two was arranged by their elders, Nalan Jie and Xiao Lin, so it could be cancelled.

But unfortunately, Nalan Yanran likes Xiao Yan to the extreme, and she was willing to make a three-year agreement for him. She even went to the Gate of Life and Death to risk her life in order to win the three-year agreement. What should be done about this?

If Nalan Yanran came out and found out that the fiancé she had been pursuing desperately had had a relationship with her trusted teacher and even had a son with him, the blow would be too great for an ordinary person to bear. There was no telling what Nalan Yanran might do.

And this is also the reason why Yun Yun has been hiding this matter.

Gu He was naturally aware of all this, and his eyes were full of sympathy for Xiao Wei.

He is just an outsider in this incident. It doesn't matter if he doesn't get involved. It has nothing to do with him anyway.

But Xiao Yu couldn't do that. Xiao Yan was her biological brother. How could she, his sister, just sit there and do nothing when her biological brother encountered such troubles?

And there was one thing that Gu He didn't know, which was that Queen Medusa declared that Xiao Yan was her future husband in front of many high-ranking officials of the Jia Ma Empire that night.

When Xiao Yu heard the news, his head exploded. Yun Yun's problem hadn't been solved yet, and here comes another one? !

In addition, there was the Little Medical Fairy who had always been by Xiao Yan's side. Although she didn't say it explicitly, Xiao Yu could see that the Little Medical Fairy also admired Xiao Yan very much.

In addition, there are Xun'er and others in the family.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Xiao Yi would finish the day's tedious tasks and when he finally had some free time, these things would emerge in his mind. He would keep thinking about solutions and really didn't have time to rest for a moment.

"Mr. Furukawa, do you have any good solution?"

Xiao Wei turned his head and looked at Gu He and asked, Gu He waved his hand helplessly.

"My brain isn't as good as yours. If even you can't come up with a solution, what ideas can I have? Besides, this is someone else's family affair, and it's really not appropriate for me, an outsider, to get involved."

As the saying goes, distant relatives cannot separate close ones. Gu He understands this principle very well. He doesn't want to get himself into trouble for no reason.

However, although Gu He thought so, he still whispered after thinking for a moment.

"You don't have to worry too much. Some things can't be solved no matter how much outsiders think about it. In the end, it still depends on the decision of the person involved."

".You are right. Maybe I am the elder sister who is worrying too much."

Xiao Wei shrugged helplessly, his expression relaxed a little.
