C40 The Invitation of the Gu Family
Lee Zongjiu's battle in the alchemy square could be said to have made a name for himself. Everyone knew that the Lee family had a young master who was ruthless and extremely skilled in martial arts.
Moreover, it seemed that he was also very good at refining pills.
After all, the Lee family was an alchemy family. Although it was only famous in this small Luoxia City, it was still somewhat famous.
The patriarch of the Sun family had been killed, and he felt as if he had never recovered from his defeat.
The Lee family did not directly uproot the Sun family.
Instead, they allowed the property under their control to gradually swallow up the Sun family's property. They bought it at a very low price. From this point of view, they were gradually nibbling away at the Sun family. In the end, they also took over the Sun family's most glorious forging industry.
If they exterminated the Sun family, it might cause a huge ruckus. On the contrary, it was like boiling a frog in warm water, forcing the Sun family to leave on their own.
When it came to the wilderness, it would be much easier to remove the weeds.
After all, this was still under the watch of the Holy Flame Dynasty. If the dynasty were to get angry, it would not be easy to resolve this matter.
Even a casual sneeze from such a colossus would cause the earth to shake.
"Young Master, someone from the Gu family is looking for you."
Lee Gui had a great time in the battle yesterday. Now that he was looking at Lee Zongjiu, he felt as if he was looking at a future patriarch. If it wasn't for the fact that he had prepared so many people and that he had immediately bought over the Sun family's assets after Sun Zhenglei's death.
Moreover, there were so many experts of the Sun family who were captured by the Lee family.
Now, they were also undergoing training.
Lee Zongjiu had also experienced the battle yesterday. After recuperating for a day, his condition had finally recovered.
The Gu family was looking for him?
The Gu family was also one of the four great families.
They seemed to be very influential in the city.
However, the Gu family did not seem to have much to do. This made people feel very awkward. With the strength of the Gu family, if it was in normal times, it would not even be considered an ordinary family.
However, there was one person in the Gu family.
It was this person who had supported the overall level of the Gu family.
This person was the old patriarch of the Gu family.
He was also a retired soldier of the Black Tortoise Army of the five great legions of the Holy Flame Dynasty!
Although he was just an ordinary soldier, because the legion he was in belonged to the Black Tortoise Army, even in Luoxia City, this family could still exist.
The Black Tortoise Army was a very valiant army. They had fought in wars in the south and the north of the dynasty. It was a very honorable thing to be able to retire alive. Therefore, this old soldier had such a treatment.
Even though the Gu family had declined, no one dared to touch the Gu family.
Of course, this was all because of the old man of the Gu family. If the old man of the Gu family fell, then there would be nothing left. No one could predict what would happen.
Lee Zongjiu also knew about the Gu family. In his previous life, he admired the old man of the Gu family. He was able to fight on the battlefield. It was an extremely cruel battlefield. A person who could endure such a bloody battle was definitely not a simple person.
Moreover, the old man had been honest and honest all his life. He had done many good things.
With the old man's achievements, he could have easily become a government official or a consultant after retirement. However, he had to return to Luoxia City, where he belonged, to enjoy his retirement.
There was not much information about the old man in his previous life. Ever since Lee Zongjiu had escaped, he heard that the old man of the Gu family had passed away not long after.
This was a great regret.
Lee Zongjiu had most likely guessed the intentions of the people from the Gu family.
"Let's go."
Lee Zongjiu pushed open the door and took the lead to walk to the side hall.
In the side hall, there was a simple-looking and burly man waiting.
When he saw Lee Zongjiu, a trace of disapproval flashed across the man's eyes.
Just a small guy like him could kill Sun Zhenglei of the Sun family?
Although Lee Zongjiu was very suspicious of Sun Zhenglei, he had no choice but to complete the task given by the patriarch.
"But Young Hero Lee Zongjiu, my family's patriarch wants to invite you to the mansion for a chat."
Koo Mann said with a deep voice.
Lee Zongjiu wanted to cover his ears when he heard this. He was afraid that this guy would spit on his body.
"Let's go."
Lee Zongjiu said directly.
Koo Mann was also stunned when he heard this. This Lee Zongjiu was so easy to deal with. He had not even said anything, but Lee Zongjiu had already agreed.
He had originally thought of preparing the conditions to threaten and lure him, but Lee Zongjiu was so straightforward, which made Koo Mann look at him in a different light. This was better than some shy girls.
"Alright, that's enough. If you need anything from me in the future, just let me know!"
Koo Mann?
When Lee Zongjiu heard this name, he also looked at the person in front of him in surprise.
In his previous life, Lee Zongjiu had heard of the name Koo Mann. He had become an Origin Sect Level expert at the age of fifty.
However, he had also made quite a name for himself.
To be able to become an Origin Master in his fifties was already quite a feat. He never thought that in a dozen years, the famous expert would turn out to be this simple and honest fellow.
"Alright, that's what you said."
Lee Zongjiu said. There was no need to waste the favor of a Supreme Level Expert in the future. Although Lee Zongjiu was a Supreme Level Expert in his previous life, he could not recover to that level yet. If he wanted to do it again, although it would not take three thousand years, it would take a few hundred years.
It would be very difficult to succeed.
It was not so easy to reach such a realm.
There were too many secrets in this world, and they were all unimaginable and terrifying.
Even as a Supreme Level Expert, Lee Zongjiu had yet to find some of the true secrets of the Shengwu Continent.
That meant that his realm was far from being enough!
Lee Zongjiu and Koo Mann went together.
Lee Gui also acted as a substitute bodyguard and followed beside Lee Zongjiu.
Before Koo Mann left, he looked around.
Why didn't he see the very powerful old man that everyone was talking about?
Although Lee Zongjiu had killed Mu Yuan, many people did not dare to believe it. Most of the rumors were saying that Mu Yuan had died because he had fought with Lin Cang before he died.
He had suffered internal injuries.
