Lei Zhan nodded vigorously and said, "I also believe that one day I will be grateful for the choice I made today. I want to thank Miss Gu Ting for taking me in. I also want to thank Brother Yuan Gu for introducing Miss Gu Ting to me when we first met, so that I can have a place to stay. I will follow Miss Gu Ting's lead and will never let Miss Gu Ting or Brother Yuan Gu down."
Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Brother Lei Zhan will definitely have a bright future following Gu Ting. I've known Gu Ting for quite some time and I have some understanding of her. You won't suffer any loss if you follow her. What's more, she is the daughter of the family patriarch. She is also vying for the title of heir to the family patriarch. It is said that the family patriarchal position is passed down to males, not females, but Gu Ting has set a precedent, so you will definitely not suffer any loss if you follow her."
Lei Zhan said with a cheerful smile on his face: "Don't worry, I will definitely follow Miss Gu Ting well and be loyal to her in the future. If it is not the case at that time, please feel free to attack me, Brother Yuangu."
Gu Ting smiled and said, "Mr. Lei Zhan, what you said is a bit serious. Since Yuan Gu is willing to introduce you to me, and this is the first time you two have met, then I will definitely trust Mr. Lei Zhan without reservation. I know that Yuan Gu is an accurate judge of people's identities. If your character is not good, then Yuan Gu will definitely not introduce you to me. Don't you agree, Yuan Gu?"
Gu Yuan nodded: "It's all right now. From now on, you two should work hard. Although Lei Zhan is a physical cultivator, his strength is already comparable to that of a fourth-level spirit master. With enough resources, I think Lei Zhan's cultivation will improve quickly. By then, you will definitely have another great general under your command."
Gu Ting smiled with great satisfaction and said, "That's right, I have to thank you very much. You have helped me a lot again. Now that my family mission has been completed, this round of competition has ended again. A new round of competition has begun in our family. As you know, the competition in a family like ours is very fierce. In addition to your own strength, your connections and other aspects also need to be considered. The more outstanding people in our family have even recruited many Spirit Kings to their side and let those Spirit Kings work for them. I am currently short of talent, and your introduction of Mr. Lei Zhan to me is also a great help to me. So, Mr. Lei Zhan's arrival is really timely."
Gu Yuan smiled and said, "Lei Zhanting, did you hear that? Gu Ting is short of people right now. You are now one of his generals. You must follow her and work hard. That way, when Gu Ting becomes successful in the future, you will definitely benefit from it."
Lei Zhan said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you two down."
Gu Ting looked at Lei Zhan and said, "Mr. Lei Zhan, I will arrange accommodation for you here first. I will have the maid take you to arrange a room for you now. I will have someone arrange the subsequent related things for you later. I can have the maid take you to understand the environment here first. How do you think?"
Lei Zhan nodded and said, "Okay, thank you Miss Gu Ting."
But after a while, a maid came and took Lei Zhan away, leaving only Gu Yuan and Gu Ting in the backyard.
Gu Ting looked at Gu Yuan and said with a smile, "Now you can change the disguise on your face back. It's so uncomfortable to see you like this. The voice is clearly you, but the expression and appearance are different. It's really awkward to look at you."
Gu Yuan smiled speechlessly and said, "There's no other way. I finally managed to escape. If I'm not careful and don't disguise myself, how can I dare to appear in this ancient Momo City? How can I dare to swagger into your Gu family?"
Gu Yuan removed the Thousand Machine Mask from his face and returned to his original appearance. Since Gu Ting said this, Gu Yuan believed that this backyard should be absolutely safe and there would be no hidden dangers. So Gu Yuan didn't care and simply took off his disguise. In fact, he himself was quite uncomfortable with the disguise, and he was more comfortable with his outward appearance.
"This is much more comfortable."
Gu Ting looked at Gu Yuan's original appearance and said with a smile: "I still feel more comfortable looking at you now."
Gu Yuan smiled and said, "There's no other way. Otherwise, why would I pretend like this?"
Gu Ting's face gradually became serious. She said, "How did you do it at the Mu family's gate? I thought you would fight to the death. I was almost scared. I didn't expect you to have so many trump cards and methods. It was simply beyond my expectation. Since you were able to directly open up a space channel and then enter the space channel and leave, your behavior is really incredible. I was so surprised that my teeth almost fell out. Didn't you see the Mu family's chief elder and the other elders? They all looked like they had seen a ghost. I almost laughed out loud."
Gu Yuan chuckled and said, "As a mere spiritual master, I don't have the ability to open a space channel. That's a unique ability reserved for spiritual emperors. I simply used the special properties of something to open it up, and then I was able to safely leave through the space channel."
Gu Ting nodded and said, "No matter what, as long as you're safe, it's fine. But I think that thing must have been left to you by your mysterious teacher. I'm now increasingly curious about just how terrifying that teacher behind you is. To be able to open up a spatial channel and possess spatial power, one must be at least a Spiritual Emperor-level expert. You say you have such a powerful teacher, yet you rely on yourself for everything. Sometimes you feel all alone. If you could have such a Spiritual Emperor-level teacher, I would definitely stick by his side every day and have him teach me how to practice and take me out for training, so I wouldn't put my life in danger. But you, on the other hand, are walking on the edge of a knife every day. If you're not careful, you could get yourself into trouble. What are you trying to achieve?"
Gu Yuan spread his hands helplessly. "I have no choice. My master is so elusive. From the time I became his disciple until now, I have hardly seen him a few times. Every time, he comes to me on his own initiative, and I never look for him because I don't know where he is or where to find him. What can I do? Every time he comes, he seems so panicked and says a few words to me casually. Then he leaves. What can I do?"
