Chapter 111: Manly Character
It is getting late today. Gu Fengchen plans to go back to Qingshan Town tomorrow and stay at Nalan's house for the last night.
Looking at Gu Fengchen's departing back, Nalan Su suddenly asked, "Father, where is Yanran?"
"What do you think? Hehehe, this is the last night. Unless something happens, this kid won't miss our Nalan family anymore." Nalan Jie smiled.
"You are an old and disrespectful thing. You, you can't do this." Although what Nalan Jie said made sense, Nalan Yanran was his daughter after all.
"She is also my granddaughter. Besides, it was not me who brought up this matter. It was Yanran who brought it up. She said that she had something to talk to Chen Xiaoyou about. She didn't tell me what it was specifically. Anyway, no one is allowed to approach his room tonight. Anyone who disobeys my order will be punished according to the family rules!"
"Yes, father!"
Gu Fengchen was walking in the quiet courtyard of the Nalan family, silently thinking about his next plan.
The first is the strange fire. Although he possesses the strange fire, he cannot take out the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame casually. It is okay in the Gama Empire, but if he goes to Zhongzhou, if he wants to use the strange fire to fight, then the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame will be exposed.
It would be troublesome if someone recognized me then.
After all, he took the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame secretly, without Gu Xun'er's knowledge and without Gu Yuan's consent. If the Gu clan knew about this, who knows what the consequences would be.
Of course, if he reaches the Dou Zun level, he will be exposed, but for now he still plans to play it safe.
"It seems that I have to find a way to get the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire back." Gu Fengchen rubbed his eyebrows.
Gu Fengchen was lucky to obtain the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame. In this world, strange fires are the most precious things. All the strange fires in this world added together definitely do not exceed one hundred. Even then, we have to exclude the majority of strange fires occupied by the ancient races. The strange fires that are lost and obtained by non-ancient races should not exceed ten.
If he had not read the novel in his previous life, he probably would not have known about the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.
After things here are done, I'll see if there's a chance to go to the Black Horn Region.
The Black Horn Region is far from being as simple as it appears from the outside. Not to mention that there are Seven-Star Dou Zong like the Earth Demon Old Ghost in it, the mere fact that the Dou Emperor's Cave Mansion is built under the Black Horn Region makes people doubt the motives of Tushe Ancient Emperor, so he must make a trip to the Black Horn Region.
Soon, dragging his tired body, Gu Fengchen returned to his courtyard.
He was really exhausted today. He had a big fight with Yafei in the morning, a big fight with Yaoye in the afternoon, and a big fight with the sisters at night. Oh no, that was a fight. Anyway, he had a big headache all day.
However, when he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he found that his door was open and candlelight was shining in the room.
Did the maid who cleaned the room forget to close the door?
Gu Fengchen was a little confused.
He opened the door and entered the room.
Smokeless animal gold charcoal was burning in the room, and the smell of sandalwood was curling.
In the dim candlelight, a girl in gorgeous clothes sat at the table, supporting her forehead with one hand and nodding her head.
Her jet-black hair was tied up high, adorned with expensive jewelry, and her beautiful fair face looked a little haggard, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
Nalan Yanran has been waiting for me here?
Gu Fengchen was a little confused. He walked over and gently pushed the girl's shoulder with his hand.
There was a faint fragrance on the other person's body. Nalan Yanran opened her eyes and said excitedly when she saw Gu Fengchen, "You're back!"
In the candlelight, the other person's pointed, oval face looked like a piece of warm jade, without a flaw.
Oh, I'm really not lustful, I just want to give these girls a warm home. After all, men are "true to themselves".
Gu Fengchen muttered to himself, but his eyes were fixed on the pretty and delicate-looking Nalan Yanran.
Being looked at like this by Gu Fengchen, Nalan Yanran lowered her head shyly, and a thrilling blush appeared on her face.
"By the way, I prepared milk for you. It's fresh milk. Try it." As she said that, Nalan Yanran asked the maid to bring in a bowl of hot milk.
Gu Fengchen took the milk, smelled it, and the foul smell rushed into his nose, and he almost vomited.
What, are you going to poison me?
Of course, this is a joke, and Gu Fengchen, who possesses the Three Thousand Flame Body, has long been immune to all poisons and is not afraid of being poisoned by others.
The main problem is that the milk tastes fishy and smelly. There is no other way. In the Douqi Continent, there are no messy additives. It is original and at most heated and sterilized.
Gu Fengchen suddenly thought of a possibility. Hiss, can I improve the milk?
Well, I don't know how to get rid of this smell. I studied liberal arts.
Besides, in a place like Douqi Continent, how much is milk worth?
After drinking the milk, Nalan Yanran ordered the servants to bring rice with whole grains.
Inside the Gama Palace, they had been bragging about business and indeed had not eaten enough. Now, smelling the fragrance of rice, Gu Fengchen's appetite was suddenly aroused.
The multi-grain rice is mixed with black rice, millet, and corn, and is drizzled with fragrant sesame oil. The rice grains are plump, crystal clear, and fragrant.
The vegetarian dishes are also prepared with great care, and are delicious and flavourful.
While eating, Nalan Yanran said, "Teacher, please let me tell you something."
Gu Fengchen paused slightly while eating.
Isn’t Nalan Yanran’s teacher Yun Yun, the leader of the Yunlan Sect?
Having read the original novel, he naturally knew who Yun Yun was, but after he traveled through time, he had never dealt with Yun Yun face to face. What did it mean that Yun Yun came to find him?
"What?" Gu Fengchen did not ask who Nalan Yanran's teacher was. Asking that question seemed redundant.
"The Yunlan Sect's enrollment examination will be held in three days. If you are interested, we can..."
"Not interested." Gu Fengchen waved his hand.
With Gu Fengchen's current level, he is still unwilling to provoke the Yunlan Sect.
Yunshan is nothing to be afraid of. According to the timeline of the original novel, he definitely has not broken through the Dou Zong barrier at this time.
However, the person Gu Fengchen was worried about was the Soul Palace.
Now, the Soul Palace has been contacting Yunshan in secret, which is a troublesome matter.
Now that Xiao Yan is gone, no one knows where Yao Lao's ring has gone. It would be difficult for the weaklings of the Jia Ma Empire to hold off the Soul Palace.
But Nalan Yanran continued, "The prize for the first place in this assessment is a magic core of a fifth-level magic beast."
"Still not interested."
"This magic core is from the ancient Sky Poison Scorpion. This powerful magical beast had already reached the fifth level when it was young. We were lucky to obtain it. However, because the magic core contains a large amount of toxins, our Yunlan Sect has been keeping it and we don't know how to use it. What do you think of this reward?"
