"No, I haven't come back to visit you for so many years. This is all a token of my appreciation. You must accept it, Grandpa." Seeing that he refused to accept it, Shen Yuhe became so anxious that her eyes turned red.
"Then... I'll take one, and you can keep the others for yourself." Gu Qingyang didn't want to make her sad, so he changed his words and randomly picked a relic soul bead to take.
"No, that one is too small. I want this one, which is bigger." Chen Yuhe snatched the relic soul bead back and exchanged it for a bigger one.
"Silly girl, what's the difference between big and small? They are actually the same." Gu Qingyang patted her head with satisfaction, smiled, and accepted the big one.
"Grandpa Tang, Grandpa Feng, this is for you. Please don't be disgusted by it." Chen Yuhe took out two relic soul beads and gave them to Tang Gu and the others.
"How can this be possible? How can we accept your gift?" Tang Gu and the other two declined.
"It's a nice gesture from the little girl. If you don't treat me, Gu Qingyang, as an outsider, then accept it." Seeing that Chen Yuhe was so sensible and knew how to respect her old friend, Gu Qingyang couldn't stop smiling. He could keep the relic soul bead, but he would feel bad if he neglected Tang Gu and the others. After all, time reveals a person's true character. After experiencing this ups and downs of human nature, only these two people still supported the Gu family as before.
"Then, we won't be polite." The two of them did not act pretentiously and accepted the relic soul bead.
"Master Gu, Master Tang, and Master Feng, I didn't prepare any gifts for our first meeting. This is just a small token of my appreciation. I hope you will accept it." Mu Hanyan was generous by nature and had respect for these elders. Of course, she was not polite and took out the relic soul bead.
Next came Sikong Qinglan and Wen Gaoren. Patriarch Gu and Patriarch Tang couldn't refuse, so they had to thank them and accept them one by one. They had wanted to give the younger generation a gift, but their families were not in good circumstances and couldn't give anything decent, so they had to keep it in mind for the time being.
Holding the relic soul beads given by everyone, Patriarch Gu was a little calmer, while Patriarch Tang and Patriarch Gu were both filled with emotion.
The cultivation base of the two of them was not high, both were only fifth-level divine priests. Although they had seen relic soul beads several times at auctions, they knew that they would probably never be able to enjoy them in this lifetime. They never expected that they would each get several at once, and these were not ordinary items, but colorful soul beads worth millions.
They couldn't even dream of such a good thing. Of course, they also knew that Mu Hanyan and others respected them so much because they had previously spared no effort and regardless of the consequences to support the Gu family. They were also very grateful for their previous decision.
They also knew that with this Phoenix Nirvana Pill, the Gu family could completely recover from their slump. If Mu Hanyan's words were true, then even without her help, Gu Qingyang would have no problem refining the Phoenix Nirvana Pill. At that time, not only the Long family, but even the priest families of the Temple of Life would have to give the Gu family some respect. The Gu family's resurgence was just around the corner.
As for those families who betrayed the Gu family, let them cry. Gu Qingyang doesn't need to say anything. He can make those families who need his help suffer.
Looking at Mu Hanyan again, both of them had a hint of respect in their eyes. Who said that the Flower Rain Temple couldn't survive? With the secret divine arts passed down by this High Priest, and the alchemy technique that could transform decay into magic at a critical moment, it was enough to turn the tide for the Flower Rain Temple.
"Father, this is..." At this time, a middle-aged man appeared at the door. He looked at the relic soul beads with strange light in the hands of Gu Qingyang, Mr. Tang and others, and his eyes widened in shock.
"Ming'an, come and see who's back." Gu Qingyang waved and said. The man who came was Chen Yuhe's second uncle, Gu Ming'an.
"Yuhe greets Second Uncle," Shen Yuhe said, bowing. Originally, she should have called him Second Uncle, but because she grew up in the Gu family and Gu Qingyang treated her like a granddaughter, she followed the other younger generations on the paternal side and called him Uncle and Aunt. Later, everyone got used to it and stopped calling him that.
"It's Yuhe! I haven't seen you for so many years. You've grown up so quickly." Gu Ming'an was stunned for a moment, then turned his gaze away from the relic soul bead. He said to Chen Yuhe with surprise and affection. He was gentle and kind, and he loved this little niece very much, which was completely different from Zhu Yulan.
"Ming'an, haven't you always been curious about what the relic soul bead looks like? Now you can take a good look at it." After Gu Ming'an and Shen Yuhe talked about their recent situation, Gu Qingyang raised the relic soul bead in his hand and said to him with a smile.
"This is truly a Soul Relic Orb." Gu Ming'an's eyes lit up with excitement. His strength was low, so of course he wouldn't be among the Soul Relic Orbs distributed by the Life Temple. He had always been curious, and when he saw the multicolored beads in Gu Qingyang's hand, he had some guesses, but he wasn't sure. Only after hearing his father's words did he realize he was right.
"This is not an ordinary relic soul bead, but a five-colored soul bead. You should have heard of it." Gu Qingyang added.
"Five... Five-colored Soul Orbs." Gu Ming'an was so excited that his tongue was a little tied. Putting aside the value, possessing a Five-colored Soul Orb itself symbolized status and honor.
You should know that even the chief priest of Tianyang Temple does not get the five-colored soul beads every time the temple distributes relic soul beads. He can only be given this honor because of his good management of the city or great achievements.
"I haven't been back for many years and haven't prepared any gifts. Let's give this relic soul bead to second uncle." Chen Yuhe took out another relic soul bead and presented it to Gu Mingan with the courtesy of a junior.
"How can this be? It's so embarrassing." Gu Mingan said nervously.
"Since it's a gift from Yuhe, just accept it." Gu Qingyang's temperament was much more free and easy than his. He waved his hand and made the decision for him.
"Thank you very much, Yuhe. Second uncle didn't know you were coming back and didn't prepare any gifts. I will give you a return gift in a few days." Gu Ming'an put away the relic soul bead and said embarrassedly.
"Yuhe knows the situation of the Gu family. Even I, the head of the family, am incorruptible. How can you return the favor?" Gu Qingyang glared at the second brother angrily. One knows one's own affairs best. Gu Mingan, with his honest character, has long been controlled by Zhu Yulan. He probably doesn't even have money for a meal. How can he return the favor? It will definitely drive him crazy.
Gu Mingan smiled awkwardly, too embarrassed to say anything more.
Afterwards, Gu Qingyang introduced Gu Mingan to Mu Hanyan and the others. It was only then that Gu An realized that these people were actually the chief priests and prayer priests of the Flower Rain Temple, and that Chen Yuhe had also become the right priest, and he almost cried with joy.
