The members of the Gui Family were arranged in a quiet and elegant courtyard. On the surface, there was nothing special about the courtyard. However, one could not just look at the surface. The density of spiritual energy here was incomparable to the outside world.
" Cultivating here for a day is equivalent to two to three days in the outside world. If I can continue cultivating here…"
A disciple of the Gui Family said fervently as he sensed the incomparably pure and dense spiritual energy around him.
"Don't even think about it. Other than Young Miss, I'm afraid you and I won't have this chance.”Someone sighed slightly. Such a cultivation environment was destined not to belong to them.
The Second Elder smiled and shook his head.
The younger generation of the Gui Family cared more about their own interests, but as the Second Elder of the Gui Family, he cared more about the family's interests.
With such a magnate-level master, Gui Yiyi's future achievements could be imagined.
Pioneer Sea Realm cultivators were not guaranteed, but the advanced Spirit Severing Realm was practically guaranteed. In the future, he might even become an elder of the Profound Sword Sect.
Although all of this might not have anything to do with them, don't forget that Gui Yiyi was a member of the Gui Clan.
The stronger Gui Yiyi was, the higher her status would be. Even the Gui family's status would rise along with it. Putting everything else aside, just the name of Black Elder's personal disciple was enough to make the Gui Clan an existence that no one in Half Moon City dared to provoke.
From now on, even the Wang Clan, whose strength was above their Gui Clan, would have to be polite to them.
Thinking that the Gui Family's current situation had not only been resolved, but they also had a Pioneer Sea Realm expert as their backer, the Second Elder was extremely excited. He wished he could fly back to Half Moon City immediately and inform the clan leader of the matter.
Of course, the Second Elder also knew that this was impossible.
Flying through the air was the mark of a King realm expert. He was only a puny Spirit Severing cultivator…
Thinking of the clan leader, the second elder sighed slightly.
Ever since he found out that Duan Li of the Duan Clan had become the disciple of the Withered Wood Sect's elder, the Clan Leader seemed to have aged significantly overnight. He wasn't the only one who saw this. Everyone in the Gui Clan had seen this.
For this reason, the clan leader did not hesitate to lower his status and beg for help everywhere. However, every time he returned, he would return empty-handed. Every time he returned, they could see that the white hair on the clan leader's head had increased a little.
For the sake of the clan, the clan leader was extremely worried.
………………
Half Moon City, the Gui Clan's main hall, all the higher-ups of the Gui Clan, including the First Elder, were gathered here.
Everyone in the Gui Clan was like ants on a hot pan, anxious and desperate. When they thought about how the Gui Clan, which had existed for hundreds of years, was about to be destroyed by their generation, they felt an indescribable bitterness in their hearts.
The noisy hall quickly quieted down because of the arrival of a person.
This person was none other than the clan leader of the Gui Clan, Gui Tiancheng.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Gui Tiancheng, their eyes filled with hope.
They hoped that the patriarch would bring back good news.
"Patriarch, how is it? Did the Liao family…agree?" The Great Elder's voice was a little anxious. " Yes, we agreed, but…the Liao family only agreed to help us plead for leniency. They won't get involved…"
Flying Feathers City was one of the top ten cities in the southern part of Zhennan Province. Its overall strength and scale were incomparable to Half Moon City.
There were eight great clans in Featherfeather City, and all of them had eighth level Spirit Severing Stage experts.
The Liao family mentioned by the First Elder was one of them.
The current Patriarch of the Liao Clan was an expert at the peak of the Eighth Level Spirit Severing Stage!
The place Gui Tiancheng was heading to was the Liao family in Feiyu City.
The Gui Family and Liao Family had a common relationship. The reason why the two families were in contact was because the ancestors of the two families were good friends. Moreover, the Gui Family's ancestor had saved the Liao Family's ancestor's life once. It could be considered that he owed the Gui Family a big favor.
The relationship between the two families was not bad back then. Although the Liao family had never thought much of the Gui family, they had always been in contact due to the friendship between the two ancestors.
However, ever since the ancestors of both sides passed away, the two families had much less contact. If it wasn't for the fact that the Liao Family still owed the Gui Family a favor, the two families would have long lost contact.
No matter how deep the friendship between the ancestors was, it was still their business. Now that the ancestors of both sides were no longer around, the so-called friendship was naturally gone.
This time, Gui Tiancheng went to the Liao family in Feiyu City to use this favor.
Initially, when they heard that the Liao family had agreed, the Gui family members were still happy. However, after hearing the latter part, their joy dissipated by more than half.
"Just to plead for mercy? This was considered a promise? What's the difference between this and not agreeing? A bunch of ungrateful fellows. If it wasn't for my Gui Family's ancestor saving their ancestor's life back then, would their Liao Family be where they are today?”
A member of the Gui Family said angrily.
Intercede? How much was the Liao family's face worth?
Although the Liao Clan Leader and Duan Li's Master were both at the peak of the Eighth Level Spirit Severing Stage, Duan Li's Master had the backing of a colossus like the Withered Tree Sect. The chances of him giving the Liao Clan face were so small that it was almost negligible.
"Forget it, it's within my expectations. Although the Liao Family is strong, compared to the Withered Tree Sect…there's still quite a gap.”The Great Elder shook his head. Although he was angry, he could understand the Liao family's actions.
If he was from the Liao family, he probably wouldn't get involved either.
If it was just Duan Li's master, it would be fine. However, behind Duan Li's master was the Withered Tree Sect, a colossus with a Pioneer Sea Realm expert.
Facing such a behemoth, if the Liao family was not careful, it was very likely that they would lose themselves.
Therefore, even if he agreed to intercede, it was probably a decision made by the Liao family's head after a long consideration. In the words of the Liao family, they had already done their best. Who asked the Gui family to provoke someone they shouldn't have provoked?
Everyone in the hall, including Gui Tiancheng, fell silent.
Up until now, he had thought of all the methods he could think of. He had begged everyone who should have begged him. He had used all his connections, but no one dared to get involved.
Everyone from the Gui Family was already in despair.
"Now, we can only place our hopes on Lan 'er.”
Third Elder lay back on his chair and closed his eyes.
The Lan 'er he was talking about was naturally Gui Lan.
"I'm afraid…there's not much hope. The Profound Sword Sect is even more powerful than the Withered Wood Sect. It's not easy to enter such a sect.”"This…perhaps this is the fate of our Gui Clan."”
Sometimes, one had to accept their fate.
If this incident hadn't happened, it wouldn't have taken long for the Gui Family to surpass the Duan Family and become the second family in Half Moon City. Unfortunately…there were no ifs.
Do you still have flowers in your hands? Let the flowers come more fiercely!!!
