Gu Jin only realized after her death that the only one who collected her corpse and ruthlessly avenged her was the 'little wolf cub' she had once shown kindness to with a meal.
After ...
Chapter 1021: Hidden City Monks Conference
Gu Jin did not reach out to take it, his eyes were fixed on the black invitation.
"Which one sent it?"
During this period, she received many invitations, some from people she knew and some from people she didn't, all of which invited her to attend various banquets under various names.
It's so cold today, who would go out and suffer the cold instead of lying down at home?
She rejected them all.
But the invitation in front of me is quite interesting.
All the invitations sent were in various colors of red, but this one was black, and the pattern on the invitation was also indescribably strange.
It looks like a dragon but it’s not a dragon, and like a phoenix but it’s not a phoenix. I don’t know what kind of animal it is, with its fangs and claws bared.
Cassie spoke briefly: "East City, Hidden City."
"oh?"
The invitation from Yin City attracted Gu Jin's attention.
She reached out to take the invitation, sealed it black, and wrote the word "invitation" in large letters in gold powder.
Gu Jin opened it and the words inside came into view.
The four big words "Monks' Conference" on the top floor were the first things that caught Gu Jin's eye.
We sincerely invite Master Gu Jin, the leader of Xuanji Sect, to attend this monks' conference on February 9, 9993, at Jing'an Pavilion in Yinshi, Dongcheng.
There was no signature, and the last sentence was, "We sincerely hope that the leader of Xuanji Sect will come and participate with his disciples."
Monks' conference?
It was the first time that Gu Jin had heard of such a conference. Just by looking at the superficial meaning, he knew that it was a group of people with cultivation gathered together.
She held the black invitation in her hand, her brows slightly furrowed, and she concentrated on thinking.
Although Xuanji Sect is not as famous as the four major families, it is well known among the upper class people.
She also knew that the courtyard house where she currently lived was under surveillance by multiple forces.
Now that she had received the invitation to the monks' conference from Yin City, Gu Jin had a vague feeling that the situation was not good.
The comfortable life she once had was probably going to be far away from her.
The reason I kept a low profile in the past few years was to be a lazy person and avoid annoying trivial matters.
Right now, it is indeed impossible.
Ever since An Mingji's high-profile incident last year and the sudden emergence of Xuanji Sect became known to all the upper echelons, she had already anticipated the subsequent troubles.
Here comes the trouble.
However, she didn't quite understand the inside story of the monks' conference, and didn't know whether to decline or embrace it.
Gu Jinxiu frowned slightly, reached out to pick up the mobile phone on the table, and called his third disciple Wanqi Jingyi directly.
Dongcheng Yinshi is the territory of the Wanqi family, so they must know something about this matter.
Sure enough, Wanqi Jingyi audibly exclaimed when he heard about the monks' conference.
The other party quickly calmed down and explained to Gu Jin: "Master, the monks' conference is held every ten years. It was founded by two old sects in Yin City and has lasted for a hundred years. Anyone who accepts the invitation to the monks' conference must be present. Failure to attend is a provocation to their authority and they will use extraordinary means to warn you.
I heard from my father that more than 20 years ago, a sect did not take this invitation seriously, and even said that the old sects in Yin City were cowards who had been hiding in seclusion for hundreds of years and had no right to point fingers at them.
Because they did not attend the monks' conference and made such a bold statement, they were directly wiped out by the two sects in Hidden City. The means used were extremely cruel and bloody, which shocked the other sects.
The monks' conference held every ten years is extremely dangerous. Dozens of monks are killed at the end of each conference. I didn't expect that they would invite Master to go this time. I'm afraid they have set their sights on Xuanji Sect."
Wanqi Jingyi said this with great certainty.
Gu Jin didn't know the inside story, so he asked casually, "How can you say that? I haven't even been to Yin City."
