"I still have time, so I can give you some guidance. What's going on with Fang Yuan? What's going on with so many fifteen or sixteen-year-old war lieutenants? What's going on recently? Tell me in detail!"
After sighing, the old lord began to talk about business, which was also his final guidance to Gu Xing.
I was very excited to hear that the old leader was going to give me guidance.
Gu Xing himself had never received formal education as a family head, so after becoming the family head, he felt very overwhelmed.
I encountered many problems and couldn't find anyone to ask for help.
When he heard the old lord ask him about Fang Yuan first, and thought about Fang Yuan's strength and the main reason for this failure, he understood what the old lord meant.
This is still not admitting defeat!
Even before death, you must understand your opponent, and may even make some hidden moves!
This seems to be a tradition of the lord's family.
"Actually, the old lord asked so many questions, but it's actually just one question. The Heavenly Dao Mercenary System!"
"Heavenly Path Mercenary System? What a strange name! What's going on?"
"Old Lord, whether it's Fang Yuan or the other fifteen or sixteen-year-old war lieutenants, they are actually all Tiandao mercenaries. They possess the Tiandao Mercenary System."
Then Gu Xing gave a detailed account of the various information about the Tiandao Mercenary System.
The more the old lord listened, the uglier his expression became. After Gu Xing finished speaking, he laughed angrily, "Another alien invasion? Haha, they really think highly of our world. The corpse demon disaster isn't over yet, and here comes another one!"
"Old Lord, are you saying that the Heavenly Dao Mercenary System is a product of another world? How is this possible? The items it exchanges are all things that originally existed on the mainland! How could it be from another world..."
Gu Xing came from the secret guard team, so he naturally knew a lot of secret information that the outside world didn't know.
Know that the corpse demon is the product of invasion from another world!
Gu Xing had a deep understanding of the Tiandao Mercenary System. After all, he was Zheng Yuan's first trading partner after becoming a Tiandao Mercenary. He was far from mature and had unknowingly leaked a lot of information about the Tiandao Mercenary System.
Now that I think about it, this information really points to the obvious fact that the system is a product of another world.
It’s just that I only saw some superficial things before and didn’t delve into them deeply, so naturally I didn’t think about this.
Thinking about it now, it was truly horrifying. Could it be that the parasite within Zheng Yuan's body was actually a creature from another world?
Gu Xingteng stood up and said, "If that's the case, these Tiandao mercenaries must not be allowed to stay."
The old lord gave him a dissatisfied look, and Gu Xing immediately sat down obediently.
"I haven't finished yet. According to the intelligence analysis you provided, I know that these Heavenly Dao mercenaries should be in opposition to the Corpse Demons."
"Yes, that's right. Zheng Yuan needs us to exchange living beings and zombies for supplies. Although he is very afraid of rays, pain, and corpse demons, he still wants to kill them. It seems that this is the system task he mentioned!"
"Judging from their words and actions, it is true that all the Heavenly Dao mercenaries are hunting corpse demons to complete their missions and obtain supplies."
"So, the Heavenly Dao Mercenaries and the Corpse Demons really are in opposition!"
Gu Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he said this.
The Tiandao mercenaries have become a force to be reckoned with now. He was angry just now, but now he has calmed down and immediately realized that he is no match for the Tiandao mercenaries and he can't do anything to them.
This conclusion is good! At least we have a common enemy like them.
At least they are allies until the enemies are eliminated.
"That's a correct analysis. Isn't that well done?"
"The old lord has already pointed it out. If I still don't understand, I'm an idiot."
"You are far inferior to Jin Mao and Wu Zheng!"
Gu Xing scratched his head helplessly. There was no way. He couldn't fight these two people differently.
He was also pretending to be dead and refusing to say anything. He was really, so vicious.
However, the old lord has little time left, so naturally he should say more.
"The old lord is wise."
"Hmph, remember, before the Heavenly Dao Mercenaries betray this world, you must fully support them!"
"Huh? Why?"
"The words 'Heavenly Dao' are not something we mortals can casually mention. Since he dared to use them in the first place, it means he has followed the path of Heavenly Dao. In other words, they are doing things that benefit Heavenly Dao! Heavenly Dao knows about this and encourages the expansion of this system."
"Heavenly Way?"
"Yes, Heaven's Way! It is the final resting place for the deceased heroic spirits."
"It is the all-knowing god who monitors the world!"
"Tian Dao mercenaries, are they mercenaries hired by Tian Dao specifically to eliminate corpse demons?"
"Gu Xing, this is the biggest secret of us lords. In our world, there is the Way of Heaven!"
"What is the Way of Heaven, old lord?"
"Heaven's Way, you can call it law! Call it God!"
"Is there any use in knowing this?"
"Knowing this, you should think twice before doing anything in the future!"
"Old Lord, what should I do in the future?"
"Don't ever think of restoration or revenge again in your life. Protecting your family is the most important thing right now. If you admit defeat, admit it with all your heart. Don't give people the impression that you won't admit defeat. Doing so will only bring disaster to our family! Do you understand?"
"I understand! By the way, old lord, do you know the Jiang family? My plan today is to form an alliance with the Jiang family."
"Humph! You're quite courageous! You actually dared to form an alliance with the lord's people and harm the people of the same lord! Do you know what a crime this is?!"
"I, I really had no choice. I haven't completely joined forces with him yet! They didn't play a big role, they just woke you up. I didn't sell out my country!"
"You're still selling out your country?! You're really awesome! Ah!"
"Old Lord, please calm down. I won't dare to do that again!"
Seeing the old lord get so angry for the first time, Gu Xing was very nervous.
The old lord, angrily admonishing the lord, said, "From now on, do not contact lords from outside the country for missions! This is the ancestral precept of our lord family."
"Ancestral teachings?"
"Because, at that time, only the lord's family could destroy the lord's family! Therefore, our ancestors left behind this ancestral precept. Gradually, they stopped dealing with the lords of other territories."
"The next head of the family? Yes?"
"Well, you can figure it out for yourself. Two years have passed, and things have changed!"
Gu Xing seized the last moment, asking everything he wanted to know and absorbing the old man's wisdom.
The old lord's breath became weaker and weaker, and his voice became smaller and smaller.
Finally, the old lord grabbed Gu Xing's hand and warned him, "Jin Mao and Wu Zheng are still alive. Don't act rashly! The Tiandao Mercenaries are an irreversible trend! Remember this, remember this!"
