"Then you are going to hold the inheritance ceremony. Have you found a way to open the inheritance hall?" Murong Yi asked again with concern.
"I'm not sure, but I finally have some clues." Long Yuting answered, with deep worry in his eyes.
"Master Long, is it still dangerous to open the inheritance hall?" Murong Yi asked after noticing his gaze.
"It is a little dangerous, but there is nothing we can do about it. The Tang family is pressing us step by step, and our Long family has nowhere to retreat. You can help us for a while, but you can't help us forever." Long Yuting said lightly, but his eyes were clearly full of determination.
It is not necessary to guess that if the opening of the inheritance hall fails, the danger is definitely not that simple. In nine out of ten cases, the inheritance will be damaged or people's lives will be hurt.
"Qingxi, don't you understand the formation? Can you help them?" Murong Yi looked at Gu Qingxi expectantly.
"If Master Long can trust me, of course I will do my duty." Gu Qingxi agreed without hesitation.
Seeing the Long family being oppressed by the Tang family like this, she, an outsider, was filled with righteous indignation. Besides, she already regarded Long Jingyu as a friend, so how could she sit idly by and watch the Long family's affairs.
"Master Gu also knows about formations?" Long Yuting looked at Gu Qingxi in surprise.
He had heard Long Jingyu talk more than once about how Gu Qingxi detoxified Murong Yi and how he trampled the genius magic doctor of the Magic Doctor Alliance under his feet.
He had long admired this young medical genius, so he didn't dare to be disrespectful after seeing him in person.
But he never thought that Gu Qingxi, in addition to medical skills, actually knew about formations.
"I know a little bit." Gu Qingxi smiled modestly.
After all, she hadn't seen the inheritance hall of the Long family yet, and didn't know whether the forbidden formation was strong or weak, so she didn't say too much, lest the people of the Long family would be disappointed with the greater their hopes.
It turned out that she only knew a little bit, and Long Yuting was relieved.
Come to think of it, at Gu Qingxi's age, being proficient in medical and alchemy techniques is already a prodigy. How could she have so much time to learn formations? It is not easy for her to know a little bit.
"It's good to know a little bit. I'll have to trouble Master Gu to help me when the time comes." Long Yuting smiled and said perfunctorily. "
With Master Gu's help, I believe that this inheritance ceremony will be a success, and our Long family will have hope for revival." Several elders of the Long family also echoed casually.
Gu Qingxi could of course see that they were just being polite because they didn't want to hurt their face. In fact, they didn't really take their formation techniques seriously.
But she didn't care. Formations, like medical techniques and instrument techniques, require a long time of drilling and grinding to learn.
So whether it's Yuanzhen Continent or Tiancang Continent, the more powerful the formation masters are, the older they are. Which of them who are a little famous is not gray-haired and wrinkled?
At her age, no one would believe that she is proficient in formations.
"Hmph, since you only know a little bit, why are you still saying it out loud! The most important thing for us cultivators is to be open-minded. Don't you understand this principle?" At this time, a discordant scolding sounded.
A thin old man looked up and walked into the dining room with a splayed step. He looked at Gu Qingxi with a squint, his eyes full of contempt.
The hall, which was just full of joy, suddenly became silent, and the smiles of Long Yuting and several elders became extremely awkward.
The Long family owed Murong Yi and Gu Qingxi a great favor, and they didn't know how to repay it yet. This old man put on the airs of an elder and pointed fingers at others. Isn't that deliberately embarrassing?
"Grand Elder, you have come out of retreat. Let me introduce you.
This is Master Gu Qingxi, this is Murong Yi, the benefactor, and this is Young Master Long, the third senior brother of Master Gu.
Benefactor Murong, Master Gu, Young Master Long, this is our Long family's Grand Elder. He has been in retreat for some time and just came out." Fearing that the old man would offend people endlessly, Long Yuting hurriedly stood up and said.
"Meet Elder Long." Gu Qingxi and the others bowed politely.
Although the old man put on a style of taking advantage of his age as soon as he came up, this is how the Tiancang Continent is. Any cultivator with a little strength and a little reputation is arrogant and wants to grow their eyes on the top of their heads.
They have seen this kind of person many times and have long been accustomed to it. Of course, they will not treat him with the same attitude.
"No need to be polite. I am Long Zaiye. The so-called elder is just a false title. In fact, I am just an idle cloud and wild crane." The old man waved his hand and continued to look up.
The words sounded a bit extraordinary, but the arrogant look didn't have the calmness of a hermit.
Gu Qingxi was a little worried that he would twist his neck accidentally if he kept looking up like that.
"Grand Elder, Master Gu is the medical master of the Benevolent Alliance. It was thanks to her help that Lord Murong was able to escape danger some time ago. It was also she who fought against Tang Baoyun and saved Jingyu. I won't
say much about Lord Murong, I believe you have heard of him many times. It was she who seriously injured Tang Baxian with a sword last time and saved our Tang family from danger." Seeing that Long Zaiye was still acting like a hermit and didn't take Gu Qingxi and others seriously at all, Long Yuting really wanted to use something to bet on him, but unfortunately the food hadn't come yet, so he could only speed up the introduction of the identities of Gu Qingxi and others.
"So it's you, not bad, not bad." Long Zaiye lowered his head slightly, looked at Gu Qingxi and Murong Yi, then nodded and said, "You are very lucky. I heard that Tang Bayun and Tang Baxian were both at the level of Yuanying Great Perfection, but they were defeated by you.
But you can't be proud and complacent. They just saw that you were too young, so they underestimated the enemy and neglected to guard against you, allowing you to attack them.
But not every cultivator is as arrogant as them, and you can't be so lucky every time, so practice well and improve your cultivation with all your strength. This is the right way."
The old man said earnestly, his face full of eager expectations that only elders have for their juniors. Qianqian���d
"Puff..." Gu Qingxi almost spit out a mouthful of tea.
Seeing that the old man was finally willing to look at her straight in the eye and even said several good things, she thought he had finally changed his nature. But she
didn't know that the more she listened, the more uncomfortable it was, and it was as uncomfortable as eating a fly.
Who said we launched a sneak attack? Which eye of yours saw us launch a sneak attack?
Don't you see how the Long family has been bullied? You still have the nerve to lecture us. If you have the guts, go launch a sneak attack and try.
Murong Yi's face turned even greener, and he almost picked up the teacup and splashed the old man's face with tea foam.
