"Brother Gu is right."

Huang Jiuzhao nodded, coughed lightly, and said:

"My father had an unwelcome request, but he said he was too shy to come in person, so I had to come on my own."

"Thin-skinned?" Gu Chen showed a thoughtful look on his face.

Huang Jiuzhao continued:

"My father wants to ask if I can follow you, Brother Gu, in the future."

"Follow me?" Gu Chen was stunned:

"Why?"

Huang Jiuzhao coughed lightly, a little embarrassed:

"My father said that there is no future for me if I stay in the Royal Family or even in the Five Continents, but if I follow you, there will definitely be a future."

After listening to Huang Jiuzhao's words, Gu Chen thought for a moment and said:

"Your father said this because of my master, right?"

Huang Jiuzhao nodded:

"According to my father, Brother Gu has a bright future, and Brother Gu's master has a great future."

Gu Chen smiled upon hearing this:

"The Emperor's uncle is still a little conservative."

There was a hint of strangeness in Huang Jiuzhao's eyes, and then he asked:

"So, Brother Gu, what do you think about this?"

Gu Chen thought for a moment:

"Of course you can, but for the near future, you should still be in the Five Continents Region."

Thinking back briefly, I have basically been staying at Yinyuan Peak since I joined the Five Elephants Sect. The biggest change is that the distance I can travel has increased.

From the original Five Elephants Sect, to the Eastern Region, to the four directions, to today's Five Continents.

The borders widen, but the center remains the Yinyuan Peak.

As for where he will go in the future, he is not sure, it mainly depends on his master and the system.

Huang Jiuzhao nodded and said with a smile:

"With Brother Gu's talent, a place like the Five Continents Region cannot satisfy him."

Gu Chen also smiled:

"My brother is no ordinary person either. The Five Continents will only be a starting point. The future will surely be even greater."

Huang Jiuzhao didn't say it, but his system could see it clearly.

It is normal that only the Master can see something like [Bloodline]. Huang Jiuzhao is the first one to possess it in such a long time.

No one else, not even Xiang Li of the Xiang tribe, has it.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through Gu Chen's mind:

"Bloodline should be something extraordinary. This kind of innate advantage should be very easy to discover. But why didn't Master choose to accept him as a disciple?"

I have to say, this is a good idea.

After Gu Chen thought about it for a while, he felt that it was a little complicated.

Although I have reached the holy realm now, this is mostly due to the cultivation resources given by Master.

At the beginning, when he first entered the Five Elephants Sect, his qualifications were simply incomparable to Huang Jiuzhao.

But he became the master's disciple, while Huang Jiuzhao did not.

"Is it because I have a system?"

Gu Chen suddenly thought of it.

But then he shook his head secretly and ruled out this possibility.

"Master shouldn't know this. Besides, even if there is a system, Mu Fan, Ling'er, and Fugui shouldn't have it."

I can't figure it out.

Gu Chen simply stopped thinking about it.

After all, the master is already so powerful that accepting a disciple may be just a matter of whim.

What's more, it seemed that there was a problem with my system at the beginning, which forced me to become his disciple or he would kill me. It was also me who took the initiative to become his disciple in the first place.

After collecting his thoughts, Gu Chen started drinking and chatting with Huang Jiuzhao.

In a blink of an eye, three rounds of drinks were over.

Gu Chen took a sip of wine and was about to say something.

Suddenly, his movements paused slightly.

In my mind, the system prompt sounded:

【System prompt: Task released.】

[Current mission: Sign in in front of the Royal Coffin and open it.]

【Reward for successful mission: confidential.】

[Penalty for mission failure: Become a crab with a shell, your whole body becomes soft and can never get hard again.]

........

"what?!"

Gu Chen let out a low cry subconsciously.

Huang Jiuzhao was startled and looked over:

"Brother Gu, what?"

Gu Chen came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and said calmly:

"Nothing, I just figured out something."

After saying this, he gestured to Huang Jiuzhao:

"Go on, I need a moment to think about this."

Then he closed his eyes and focused his mind on the system.

After confirming the mission information again, Gu Chen suddenly felt as if he had dreamed back to the time when he first entered the Five Elephants Sect.

When I first heard the system prompt, I thought there was another place I needed to go to sign in.

However, when I heard the word "mission", I vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Looking back now, this seems so wrong.

This type of mission has appeared again!

"It's still the same unknown reward. The last time I became your disciple, you didn't give me anything. Will there be nothing this time?"

Gu Chen looked at the word "confidential" and wanted to twist his brows into knots.

But after looking at the penalty for failure, he felt helpless again.

There may not be any benefit in doing it, but not doing it is obviously not a good idea.

During this period of time, he worked hard in this area. The dragon marrow crystal made him feel both pain and pleasure. Ninety-nine percent of it was pain, which finally raised the strength of his body to a great level.

As a result of this punishment, my whole body became limp and I could no longer get hard!

If this is released, it will be like drawing water with a bamboo basket!

"Fortunately, the time limit for this mission is a full half month."

The task is here, there is no room for bargaining, and we can only find something that is comforting.

When he opened his eyes again, Gu Chen noticed another thing that made him feel relieved.

Within the field of vision, there is a line pointing to the check-in area.

"With the guidance, I don't have to look for it myself, and I can have more time."

Gu Chen continued to comfort himself.

"Oh, right, the royal ancient coffin." Gu Chen suddenly thought of something and looked at Huang Jiuzhao:

"The check-in location is often not random, and is usually related to other things or important information."

"The royal ancient coffin may be related to the royal family. The opening of the ancient coffin mentioned in this mission may require certain conditions. The bloodline of the royal brother may be the key to opening the ancient coffin."

Gu Chen analyzed the situation quickly in his mind and soon came up with a general idea.

Huang Jiuzhao may very well be a key breakthrough point.

"But, there's something wrong."

Gu Chen recalled the location of the royal family.

It was obviously not the direction the guide line was pointing to; it was two completely different directions.

"Let's confirm with my brother first."

With this thought, Gu Chen looked at Huang Jiuzhao and said:

"Brother, have you ever heard of the royal ancient coffin?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Jiuzhao paused and looked at Gu Chen with a moved expression and an incredible look in his eyes:

"Brother Gu actually has the ability to read minds?"
