Chapter 401 - Reversal



So, my father became a clay statue in a temple!

It wasn't until Gu Qing rose to power that he came back to life! He happily and slowly, without making a sound, handed over power to Gu Qing! He secretly helped Gu Qing succeed as lord.

Gu Qing is truly a lucky man! His position as lord is probably the easiest one among all the contenders in history.

My father was clearly trying to give up the opportunity, but he didn't let Gu Qing and others notice his intentions. He really had good intentions!

But, father, your kindness may not be rewarded!

If you do not accept what God has given you, you will surely suffer the consequences.

Now, Gu Qing wants to kill the whole family!

"Father, do you regret it?"

Gu Yan just wanted to know if his father regretted it.

The two families are now incompatible, fighting each other for life and death, and cannot coexist!

But because of Gu's father's retreat, their family was in an absolute disadvantage!

Now, they have become the fish on Gu Qing's chopping board. If he hadn't been lucky, they would have died long ago! If he hadn't been prepared and had the power, he wouldn't have been able to resist even a little! If it weren't for the conspiracy during the day, they wouldn't even have the confidence to compete with Gu Qing.

Father Gu was silent for a long time, then shook his head firmly and said, "No regrets! I know I don't have that ability! If I became a lord, I would be irresponsible to my family and the territory. I would lead my family and the people into the abyss of destruction! If you sacrifice me to preserve the safety and prosperity of my family and the territory, I will die without regrets!"

Although he has lost his courage! He cannot become a powerful warrior or an excellent lord, and even fears death when facing the corpse demon! However, he still has the character of a qualified lord's successor! He is willing to sacrifice himself for his family and territory!

Humans are really complex creatures!

Gu Yan looked at his father with a complicated look, as if he really understood his father for the first time! He closed his eyes painfully, and after a quarter of an hour, he opened his eyes. There was no more emotional fluctuation in his eyes, only determination.

"Father, no matter what, I will not surrender! Gu Qing wants to kill me, it depends on whether he has the ability to do so! I will not be like father who 'understands the greater good' and 'compromises'. I will choose to fight to the end! Father, if you really want to stop me, please kill me, otherwise, there is no other way to stop me!"

Father Gu sat down dejectedly. He didn't know why things had turned out like this!

Clearly, a few days ago, Gu Qing and Gu Yan were still chatting and laughing, acting like brothers. How come in just a few days, they became so incompatible, a life-and-death struggle?

Father Gu thought to himself, "I clearly wanted to have the best of both worlds! But, in the end, both of us will suffer? Heaven truly does not always give us what we wish for!"

Gu's father knew that from the moment Gu Yan linked up, Gu Yan had no way out!

However, Father Gu still wants to make a final effort to reconcile Gu Yan and Gu Qing! Don't let a civil war break out!

"Now, what else can I do?" Father Gu asked himself helplessly.

"Father, please support me firmly! This way, I have a 70% chance of winning! The best solution is to quickly resolve the civil war that is about to start and minimize internal consumption!" After hearing his father's muttering, Gu Yan persuaded his father.

"Including me, you have a 70% chance of winning? Besides me, do you have any other captains?"

Gu Yan said confidently: "Of course! If I don't have high-end military power at the level of a war lieutenant, how dare I challenge Gu Qing!"

Father Gu's eyes sparkled and he asked, "Who is it?"

Gu Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "You know this guy too. He's my master's younger brother! He's incredibly talented and as powerful as Wei Yuan! They both became warriors in about a year! He even became a war lieutenant in just over three years!"

"Asshole! Confused! How could you be so confused! How could a noble outside our family possess the combat power of a War Lieutenant? This isn't the time before the Corpse Demon Plague. Now, only the lord and those in our family possess the combat power of a War Lieutenant! Aren't you putting your life and death and safety at the mercy of others? You're completely unaware of this situation, and you're so calm! I always thought you were smart, but I didn't expect you to have only small cleverness and no great wisdom! How foolish!"

Gu Yan argued: "Master is not who you think he is! He..."

Father Gu shook his head in disappointment and said, "You are still stubborn and stubborn! What Gu Qing did to kill you was out of line, but it was still within the acceptable range. However, Xiao Yan! What you did is beyond the acceptable range of the family! Xiao Yan, this time, I can't protect you! You, take care of yourself!"

Gu's father left in disappointment, his back looking desolate. Gu Yan frowned, thinking about the conversation with his father. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had misunderstood his father in the past!

Although my father had lost his courage, he voluntarily gave up the position of lord!

However, my father’s wisdom has not been lost, his insight has not been lost, his pattern has not been lost, and his emotions have not been lost!

Looking back now, my father was able to hide his weaknesses and quietly complete the handover of the lordship under the protection of the public.

My father is a man of great wisdom!

But why do I only have the bad side of my father in my mind?

When did it start?

Gu Yan thought about it carefully and finally remembered that it started six years ago. After my father was betrayed by a follower for the first time, he said a lot of things to me in a disgraceful manner. Then, I was at a loss and asked the master how to deal with it!

The master's reaction at that time was also very strange! I was still young at the time and didn't notice it!

But now thinking about it, I understand that it was a sign of a dead heart!

Since that time, the master has been very disappointed with his father!

However, after a few days, the master returned to normal and became more attentive to his teachings!

It was also from that time that the master slowly began to teach Gu Yan how to become an excellent lord! It was also from that day that the master began his plan!

Similarly, from that day on, under the deliberate teaching of his master, Gu Yan became more and more disappointed with his father and more and more admiring of his master. In the end, he basically reached the point of obeying his master's every word!

Gu Yan's heart sank when he reached this point in his analysis: "So, I am, the master's puppet?"

This conclusion made Gu Yan collapse on the ground, his eyes filled with fear!

I feel that this world is full of malice!

"No, this is just my guess! Master is very sincere to me and has never concealed anything! Master is wholeheartedly planning for me and has no selfish motives! Master..."

Gu Yan kept listing his master's advantages, his voice getting louder and louder, and perhaps he became less and less confident!
