"The time is coming. After Gu Shen entered the cemetery... there has been no news yet."
The head of the Gong family looked solemn.
He and President Zhou Wei stood at the entrance of the cemetery, silently looking at the Gate to Heaven in the distance.
According to the plan... within one hour, the extraordinary teams from the five major families and the three major institutes will complete their assembly and enter the cemetery.
As for what's going on inside.
No one knows yet.
Gu Shen had already entered the Qingzhong Cemetery with the Safety Committee's A-level sealed artifact [Ten Thousand Miles], but once he went there, he lost all news like the previous explorers.
Mu Yi, the head of the Mu family, slowly came to Gong Qing's side: "Perhaps... the situation in the cemetery is not as simple as we imagined."
"..."
The head of the Gong family glanced at Mu Yi silently.
Now Gong Zi is still on the way back to Dongzhou... Because of her regretted marriage to Grand Duke Tuoyang, a big turmoil has occurred within the Gong family, but the scandal of the new engagement has spread from the Mu family.
There have been subtle changes in the relationship between the two families.
He and Mu Yi have been old friends for many years, but... as heads of the family, their personal relationships must be put behind the interests of the family.
"I used the forbidden sealed item of the clan, the 'Snow Mirror'."
Mu Yi said seriously: "The exterior of this cemetery is covered with extremely powerful spiritual power. All the extraordinary source matter projected by the snow mirror has been absorbed by the cemetery..."
"So, [Wanli] is also invalid in the cemetery?" President Zhou Wei looked a little helpless.
In fact, he had anticipated this possibility before sending out the sealed artifact.
After all, the spiritual power in that cemetery is too powerful.
No matter what, you have to give it a try, but if [Wanli] still fails to start...
Then the situation is really not optimistic.
The waiting time is limited. If no information comes out after Gu Shen enters the cemetery...then the next extraordinary team will need to explore by themselves when entering the cemetery.
The most important thing is that all future visitors to the cemetery will face the same problem.
That is, cutting off contact with the outside world.
No one knows what happened inside.
And if you want to know... there is only one way, and that is to enter the tomb in person.
This is an endless cycle with no solution.
"Brother Gong."
Mu Yi thought for a while and said seriously: "Be careful when entering the cemetery. The power of the snow mirror is swallowed up, which is probably a warning. If you send an extraordinary person who is too strong, you may suffer a huge blow. I suggest you first Those who call the mausoleum should not send high-level extraordinary beings. To ensure safety, our two families can join forces to take care of each other..."
"Thank you very much, Master Mu, for your kindness. I will make my own arrangements when entering the mausoleum."
Gong Qing spoke calmly, and it was easy to tell from his tone that he did not want to communicate in depth with Mu Yi.
Mu Yi could only sigh softly in his heart.
He knew that under such circumstances, his words would be difficult to convince. There were a large number of ownerless fire dreams scattered in the cemetery. To persuade the Gong family not to send the main force, was it because he wanted the Gong family to watch these "fire dreams"? "Dream", was it taken back by other explorers?
There may still be something to talk about before the fire incident on Long Street.
But now.
Nothing to talk about.
"It's getting late, the Gu family's extraordinary people... have already set off."
Gong Qing said softly: "Everyone, I will not accompany you."
Looking at it like this, Gu Shen's information can't wait.
After another hour of deduction and calculation, [Deep Sea] has given an evaluation report on the extraordinary aura inside the cemetery.
Within this golden door, there was no oscillation phenomenon of extraordinary source matter erupting.
Theoretically speaking... the five extraordinary teams that have completed their assembly can already enter.
Gu Lushen's men had already taken the lead and entered the cemetery.
Seeing this scene, others also started to take action and no longer waited.
…
…
The long night in the Snow Forbidden City was ignited for a moment by bolide.
Then the long silence returned.
At the end of Bai's long alley, there was a woman standing.
Behind her, there are countless bustling and noisy sounds.
The entire Bai clan is gathering... It has been nearly ten years since there has been such a grand and grand scene.
After the high-level meeting of the Snow Forbidden City ended, the Bai family's council of elders immediately gathered the extraordinary beings with strength above the second stage. According to the [Deep Sea] assessment, these people have the strength to step into the cemetery... and the strength within the clan has reached A transcendent in the third stage can become a "squad" leader. The number of a team ranges from five to ten people, and several teams are quickly formed.
Because the scene of the big explosion was too terrifying.
The clan is not prepared to invest all its extraordinary power at once.
It's just...in order to ensure that the order of the cemetery can be repaired and to seize the opportunity to collect "Dream of Fire", the strength of the first group of extraordinary people still needs to be guaranteed.
On the other side of the street, lanterns were swaying and people were everywhere.
This side of the street is still shrouded in the long night.
Bai Lu stood at the entrance of the alley, waiting.
Her expression looked as calm as water, but actually she was quite uneasy in her heart... It had been a year.
That old house has been silent for a year.
At this juncture, you always have to make some noise, right?
"It seems... Xiaoxiu is still in retreat and will not enter the mausoleum this time."
A deep voice sounded.
Bai Zesheng came to the woman's side at some unknown time. His voice was a bit regretful. The breeze blew his linen robe and hair, and the black in his pupils was deeper than the long night.
"Second Elder..."
Bai Lu's voice was very soft, "The dream of fire is very important to Xiaoxiu..."
Bai Zesheng smiled and said: "It may not be a bad thing for him to stay here alone. Everyone has left, and this place is clean."
Finished.
"Miss Bai Lu," he patted Bai Lu's shoulder and said in a deep voice, "It's getting late...it's time to set off."
Bai Lu was also among the people entering the cemetery.
Although she is a woman, she is also one of the top extraordinary geniuses in the Snow Forbidden City. She was able to become a disciple of "Mr. Shan" not because of her prominent family, but because of her sufficient talent.
But this time, the appearance of the Golden Gate has rekindled the hopes of many geniuses.
If you can enter the cemetery.
Maybe... you can pick up a ray of fire dream.
Start your own "Road to the God's Throne"!
Bai Lu withdrew her gaze towards the long alley, the moment she turned around.
"Creak" sound.
There was a gentle sound of pushing the wooden door.
The small courtyard in the distance that had been silent for a year finally made a sound bordering on the world.
Bai Lu was stunned.
Bai Zesheng was also stunned.
"I have already told Xiaoxiu about Qingzuka..."
In the night, Bai Xiaochi folded his sleeves and walked slowly. He stood at the entrance of the alley. Behind him were the Bai Family Presbyterian Church and the younger generation of the Bai family. Everyone held their breath and looked at the wooden door that slowly opened.
"This time, he will also be buried in the tomb."
Dressed in white like snow, she slowly walked out of the courtyard.
…
…
Li's ancestral hall.
Compared to the other five major families, the Li family made the least movement.
Because of the death of the former head of the family, Li Qihu, the entire Li family is now in a "slow" operation... This is a very strange state, with a large number of events being piled up.
Li Qingsui rushed around Nagano, busy accepting the unfinished case files from the previous head of the family, but her power was too small. Wherever she reached, thunder was loud and rain was small, and most of them were superficial greetings and flattery. In fact, these events The push is still slow.
The essential reason for this problem is that...the Presbyterian Church does not recognize her status as the head of the family.
Li Qingsui is not in a hurry. The purpose of what she does is not to promote the projects of the Li Group, but to find the "anbu" left by her father.
As the chess player sitting across from the chess board.
Now, she wants to play a game of chess with Li's Presbyterian Church in an upright manner.
The first step is to find your own chess piece.
She thought it would be a "long" war.
…
…
After the explosion at Kiyotsuka Cemetery, senior officials in Nagano held a spiritual meeting.
There was only one person from Li who participated in this meeting.
Li Changsheng, the great elder of the Li family.
The prestige of this great elder is extremely high. After three generations of Li family heads, he can be said to be the "Elder of Three Dynasties". He is almost a decade older than Nagano's current mainstay, and such an "existence"...is already considered the existence of the Li family. A spiritual symbol that has barely interfered in family affairs over the years.
Most matters were left to his younger brother, Li Changzhi, the second elder of the Li family.
This time he showed up.
It can be regarded as breaking the "rules" and confirming the "rumors" from the outside world.
The new head of the Li family is not qualified enough to stand up for the family.
While senior officials in Nagano were holding a meeting.
An important meeting was also held in the Li clan's ancestral hall.
The Presbyterian Council submitted a "request order" to Li Qingsui, asking her to wait outside the ancestral hall for the final result of the meeting.
Request is a euphemistic word.
But the situation today is very serious.
The so-called "request for orders" is the "supervisory power" that the Presbyterian Council will only use at critical moments. In the past years of the Li family, there were only one or two incompetent family heads who forced the Presbyterian Council to use this thing.
Please come into the hall.
If you don't want to... then take back your power.
Li Qingsui was standing outside the ancestral hall. Her expression was calm, and there was a bit of coldness between her eyebrows. It hadn't snowed yet in Nagano, but her eyes were colder than the snow.
Receiving the "request" from the Presbyterian Church was actually a kind of humiliation.
Ultimately, she did nothing wrong.
Compared with those mediocre family heads in the history of the Li family... her only mistake was that she was too young.
Maybe add one more thing, too kind.
"I can probably guess the content of this meeting..."
Li Qingsui said: "These people should be discussing the matter of 'impeaching the head of the family'."
Gao Tian, who was by his side, spoke softly.
"As long as I am here, the results they talk about are not important."
Since Li Qihu's death, Nagano no longer has any "shackles" that can restrain him.
The reason why he stayed in Li's family was because he owed a huge favor.
But over the years, the favor has been repaid.
The invisible shackles called morality have been released.
Until now, Gao Tian is still abiding by Li Quhu's "last wish" before his death... If the Presbyterian Church is willing to abide by the rules, then he will quietly be a bystander, but if someone violates the rules.
He will take action.
The worst-case scenario is that he takes Li Qingsui and leaves Nagano.
"After my father died...in the first few days, I actually felt angry in my heart."
Li Qingsui stood outside the ancestral hall.
She looked at the dead leaves falling in the ancestral hall and the numerous figures reflected in the paper windows, and said: "I'm not angry at them, but at my father. Since you want me to take over such a big burden... why not turn all this into something..." It has to be simpler.”
This is a game with a huge gap.
The "chess players" sitting across from the chessboard are a mass of shadows shrouded in fog. They are adults whose ages and calculations are far beyond their own. In that fog, they all reveal insidiousness and cunning... Qualities like that.
But sitting here, I am having a hard time, even finding the available "chess pieces" is very difficult.
The only "heavy weapon" he owns is still bound by rules.
Gao Tian also fell silent.
Li Qihu did not really "swallow the wolf and drive away the tiger" for his daughter, but left a dangerous situation behind.
"Now I'm starting to understand...why he did it."
Li Qingsui smiled in a low voice, "Uncle Gao, you can help me do many, many things, but you can't help me become the head of the Li family that everyone expects. There are some things that I can only rely on myself."
Li's "situation" has been doomed.
The only thing Li Qinghu could do was to live a few more years and watch Li Qingsui grow up.
Because of Gu Changzhi's deep sleep.
Within each of the five major families, rifts will inevitably arise... and the day will come when the rifts become larger. These rifts will appear in various places, and eventually spread to everyone in the five major families.
Gao Tian was silent.
Yes.
This was also the reason why he followed the "rules" and waited patiently.
He can protect the young lady's growth.
But it can't replace the young lady's growth.
The road to becoming a "head of the family"... is destined to have many ups and downs.
This may be the most turbulent year for the Lee family in the past century.
If the young lady wants to hold power in this situation, she will definitely...not have peace.
"Miss Qingsui, Mr. Gao."
Outside the ancestral hall, someone quickly came out to greet him.
Li Qingsui noticed that the man's name for him had changed.
He made an invitation gesture, beckoning Gao Tian and Li Qingsui to come in.
Li Qingsui smiled faintly and entered the clan hall.
Gao Tian followed closely, but was stopped.
"Mr. Gao... the great elder wants to see you." The waiter's voice was soft and he pointed in another direction not far from the ancestral hall, which was the quiet room where the great elder Li Changsheng was.
The distance between these two places is not that far.
Gao Tian nodded slowly.
When he left, he cast a firm look at Li Qingsui.
The two of them entered two houses respectively.
…
…
In the quiet room, there is only one dead lamp.
The lights are like beans.
Li Qihu's funeral was held in Qingzhong Cemetery, but only one person from the entire clan was not present, and that person was the great elder Li Changsheng.
He fell seriously ill.
This sounds a lot like an excuse.
But now when they met, Gao Tian was sitting opposite the great elder... He knew that saying he couldn't attend the funeral because of serious illness was not an excuse.
This is an "old disease".
This old man was really too old, his hair was white, his eyes were cloudy, and he was wearing a thick woolen blanket in addition to his linen robes. His energy began to fade.
Just sitting in front of the lights, waiting for the arrival of Gao Tian.
The older the extraordinary person is, the larger the amount of extraordinary source material he has accumulated.
But from the moment his spirit declines... it means that his strength will decline.
The extraordinary essence all over Li Changsheng's body was like a sea.
But Gao Tian just watched calmly, not feeling afraid at all... because this old man's spirit was too fragile, too fragile to need to be touched by himself. After a few more years, it would automatically decay.
This is Li's last "title".
But can such an extraordinary person still fight?
"Xiao Gao..."
Li Changsheng had just finished the meeting in the Snow Forbidden City. Throughout the meeting, he just lowered his eyes and listened quietly without saying a word... The other powerful people in the family also very considerately skipped the speaking part for the old man Li.
Now everyone from the three major institutes and five major institutions is preparing to enter the cemetery, and Li may be the only exception...
Because they are busy resolving internal "disputes".
For Li...this is the most important thing.
In the quiet room, ethereal spiritual sounds echoed.
Li Changsheng did not speak, but used his mental power to carry out the conversation.
"Old Master."
Gao Tian, who is good at spirituality, responded.
"Thank you...for your contribution to Lee's over the years."
The old man wrapped in a blanket slowly raised his head. His deep eyes seemed to have magic power that made people unable to look away at a glance.
Gao Tian looked directly into those eyes.
The faint sound of wind sounded in his ears.
this moment.
He realized something was wrong.
The lights in the quiet room were still burning, but they were extremely dim...and the terrifying thing was that everything was plunged into extreme darkness, and those old and deep eyes seemed to be slowly becoming younger.
There seems to be a force that goes against common sense, manifesting itself on the old man's body.
Gao Tian felt that he had an illusion.
The rickety back was actually straightening bit by bit.
The woolen blanket fell to the floor.
The thin linen robe was held open by the chest.
The candlelight in the darkness swept across an uncertain face.
Li Changsheng stretched out his withered and old fingers.
Those two fingers held down a token, and slowly pushed it forward on the table separated by the two of them. When pushing out, the old knuckles became young, and when they finally pushed it in front of Gao Tian, It has become the slender fingers of a twenty-year-old young man.
"The Li family...is facing unprecedented changes..."
"I made the choice for Mr. Li."
Li Changsheng's spiritual voice echoed in the small quiet room.
His voice is no longer old, but has become young, full and full of energy.
Gao Tian stared at this token... It was a token emblem engraved with grapes.
There is no power in this world that can rejuvenate people.
If there is.
It can only be a miracle.
He stood up and wanted to open the door and leave, but the door frame that was originally within reach turned into endless darkness.
A small quiet room.
At this moment, it turned into an endless cage.
…
…
(I encountered something today, so I am a little late)
