C20 Attendant

"Yongye, there are some things I might need to tell you. This is something that only the Patriarch and Jian Feng know about, even my father is not aware of. " The place that the Ancient Spirit Shadow brought Yong Ye to was surprisingly the room that he specially trained in.

In the room, there were only Eternal Night, him, and Jian Feng. There were also stone pillars that emitted a faint light in the room, and they were respectively seated around it.

The degree to which its spiritual energy was overflowing caused Yongye to be somewhat dumbfounded.

"What is it?" Yongye asked.

"You should also have noticed that I'm almost inseparable from the white feather fan in my hand. Even when I eat and sleep, I bring it with me. " Gu Ling Ying's eyes showed her sincere longing and love, as if she was treating her own lover as she stroked her feather fan.

"But do you know? This feather fan was actually made from the feathers and tendons of a spirit beast that grew up with me, the Thousand White Crane Feathered Beast … And I was the one who ended it! " Gu Ling Ying clenched his fists tightly, making creaking sounds. Although he didn't show any signs of anger on his face, one could tell from his actions that he was extremely angry.

"How did you do it?" Yongye could not help but glance at Gu Ling Ying and ask.

"In the Snow Moon Kingdom, every year, there will be a competition for young cultivators from all forces within the nation! As long as one is able to stand out above the rest, one will truly be able to soar into the sky! " Gu Ling Ying said fanatically.

In the Snow Moon Kingdom, the young geniuses of all forces hoped to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat!

This was because the powers of the Snow Moon Sect would definitely take a fancy to those who stood at the top of the pyramid. When that time came, he would truly be able to achieve great things!

"And last year, because of the patriarch's insistence, the higher-ups of the Gu family only allowed me, who had just reached eighteen years of age, to participate in that competition."

"At that time, I had already been looking forward to this type of competition for a long time. "I also have a lot of confidence in myself, full of ambition and wanting to step onto that stage!"

"But I greatly underestimated the cruelty of those battles. In the beginning, there was nothing much. Everything was carried out very calmly. "I've also relied on my talent and self-confidence to face all sorts of challenges!"

"Because of my outstanding talent, I was actually envied by the son of the City Lord of the Middle Capital. He came to me in private and told me to give up the game. He even threatened to make me regret it if I didn't give up the match. " Gu Ling Ying smiled mockingly.

"The Patriarch and I naturally didn't care about this kind of threat from a clown. Our attitude completely infuriated the son of the City Lord. In this sort of competition, cultivators who participate in it will be protected. Attacking them is not allowed during this competition, or else they will be hunted down by several great powers. "

"But, the son of the city lord actually bribed those people who were protecting the safety of the participants. They sent experts to secretly restrain the Patriarch, and then began to kill me again. "

"If I were by myself, I naturally wouldn't be able to fight back. Yet, this Thousand White Crane Feathered Beast that has been with me since I was young is trying its best to protect me. "

"Finally... Although we managed to escape the City Lord's son's pursuit, we were chased far away. Furthermore, at that time, the thousand White Crane Feathered Beasts would already be on the verge of death. "

"The patriarch told me that before the spirit beast died, it could gather all of its spiritual power in certain parts of its body. After that, even if it died, it would still be of use."

"The Thousand White Crane Feathered Beast doesn't object to what the Patriarch said. It even thinks that as long as it is like this, it will be able to stay by its side."

"In the end... At its request, I helped it free itself. Afterwards, I did what it wanted and took out its feathers and tendons to make this feather fan. As for its body, it was also buried by me. "

"Do you feel like you don't recognize me after hearing my story?" Gu Ling Ying laughed at herself.

He couldn't even protect his most important companion, and he even dragged her down to her grave. This feeling of guilt and self-blame was hard for others to understand.

Therefore, he thirsted for power even more than most people! Regardless of whether it was his own or his own, as long as he could grasp the power, he would grasp it tightly in his hands!

"So, you want to use the Death Spirit Contract to tie me up first, and then when the time for the competition arrives, you can take revenge on the City Lord's son and come back later?" At this moment, Yong Ye's attitude towards Gu Ling Ying gradually changed.

"No, you're not entirely right. I only have one goal, and that is to avenge the Thousand White Crane Feathered Beast! I want the son of the City Lord to die without a burial ground! " Gu Ling Ying's words were filled with boundless killing intent.

"And for that competition, I will allow you and Jian Feng to participate. I already participated in it, so I can't participate anymore. I just hope that when the relic opens a week from now, you can control that flame and help me kill that City Lord's son! " Gu Ling Ying shook her head and said.

"The two of you have Inherent skills that aren't inferior to me, especially you, Yongye, which is already a few streets away from me. I know that the Snow Moon Kingdom cannot be your final destination. The huge and suffocating kingdom, and even the empire is the best place for you to live! " Gu Ling Ying said from the bottom of her heart.

"As for the contract in your body, as long as you can find someone who can break through to the Essence of Light, you will be able to smoothly come into contact with them."

"Young Master Ling Ying!" I will only follow you for my entire life. If you don't leave the Gu house, then I won't even take a step out of the Gu house! And if you want to soar through the vast world, then I am willing to always follow behind you! " Right now, Jian Feng was actually heavily kneeling on one knee in front of Gu Ling Ying!

"Hur hur. There's too much to talk about today. Let's talk about it in the future, take Yongye to the Scripture Pavilion and let him choose some martial skill manuals that are suitable for himself. " Gu Ling Ying bitterly smiled and said.

"Follow me!" Jian Feng slowly stood up and said to Yong Ye with a calm tone.

Yongye nodded and followed Jian Feng out of the room.

After a while, Yong Ye followed Jian Feng and arrived in front of an ancient wooden house. This place should belong to the back of the Gu Jia Village, and the surrounding buildings could no longer be seen.

The surroundings of the wooden house was very spacious. There were flowers, plants and trees all around, giving off a feeling of being out of the world. A gentle breeze blew across the leaves of the tree branches, causing them to sway left and right before landing on the ground.

In front of the wooden house, there was an attendant sweeping the floor. From his appearance, he seemed to be around fifty to sixty years old. However, one could not tell his age from his appearance.

Older cultivators would use their own Spiritual Energies to make themselves appear younger. Thus, in the cultivation world, appearances were extremely deceptive.

However, the appearance could deceive a person, but the eyes and temperament that seemed to have experienced hundreds of lifetimes was unable to deceive a person.

As for the servant sweeping the floor, his sweeping movements were light. His footsteps were also slowly approaching, as if he were a normal person. However, the more one swept the floor, the more one was not to be underestimated.

"Senior, we are here to choose a martial skill manual." Jian Feng said politely.

"The patriarch has already told me that the little guy can go in. You can wait here and buy some noodles." The manservant did not even turn to look at the two of them. His voice was rather ethereal.

"Junior, although the old master said that you can follow your own thoughts and take as many martial skills as you want, I still want to remind you that as a person, you cannot be insatiable."

"I know." Yongye nodded and quickly entered the wooden house.
