Ancient Ancestral Emperor

Deep in the night, in the depths of the Guan Family compound where Qin Shaojie was resting, Guan Fanggang actually took out the time out of his busy schedule to specially come here. Although Qin Shaojie was surprised by the arrival of the leader of the Guan family, he had expected it. After all, he would not casually know about what happened in the Guan family today.    

Not many of the younger generation have the guts to do so. No matter if what you said is true or false, for you to stand out and try to save Ziying, I must thank you.    

With his hands behind his back, he looked up at the soft moonlight, making him look extremely calm and peaceful, as though he was not worried at all due to the daylight hours. And due to his attitude, Qin Shaojie did not say much, as he quietly stood behind Guan Fanggang. In the discussion hall, he had countless of chances to interrupt his and even throw his out, but he didn't. This meant that he truly cared about Guan Ziying.    

Perhaps, he did not want to agree to Sheng Jia's suggestion, but regarding the matter of the family's survival, he absolutely could not open up such an opening. Even though there were no elders in the clan who brought it up, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell what the correct choice was. Qin Shaojie's appearance was probably what Guan Fanggang had hoped for to happen.    

This Guan Fanggang might be a little selfish, but everything was just like Qin Shaojie in the discussion hall. Even if he really got married, would the Meng family really stand up for the Guan Family?    

The existence and fivefold boundary of the five great families had existed for far too long, so everyone knew each other in such a short period of time. Everything was done around benefits.    

The five great families had ruled over the fivefold boundary for many years and they used to live in peace, but now they were different. Due to the loss of the vast expanse of the human race's world, as well as being isolated by the three sects and nine realms, the resources within the fivefold boundary had already become nervous to the point of being exhausted. Under this kind of situation, his fivefold boundary was no longer able to completely support the five great families' consumption of energy. In such a situation, if they continued to seal off the fivefold boundary and maintain it's circulation, they would need to see the number of people from the five great families.    

As long as one was able to exterminate any one of the families, the resources in the fivefold boundary would be sufficient to extend one's lifespan by several thousand years or more. This point, might not be clear to the rest of the fivefold boundary, but the core members of the five great families must be clear about this point. It must be a common thing for the five clans to weaken or even destroy one of them.    

The Guan Family must be the first to bear the brunt of this. After all, ten years ago, the ancestors of the Guan Family had already lost their reputation. Now that the Patriarch of the Guan Family was gone, the Meng Family, whose relationship with the Guan Family was the most stiff, naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.    

The marriage alliance with the Sheng Jia could at most maintain this state for three to five years. After all, the Sheng Jia couldn't possibly contend against the Meng Family.    

Of course, Guan Fanggang would never have thought that Qin Shaojie would be so bold, his words today was not only trying to win Guan Ziying's marriage, but also pointing at the Meng Family.    

Although there was no proof, whether it was the Prophet s who spoke, the bets on the heads, or the so-called soul-searching, all of these did not confirm the hearts of the many clan elders from the Guan Family.    

Thus, no matter what the Clan Chief wants to know, as long as you ask, the words that the boy knows will be endless.    

Qin Shaojie was a smart person, from this, he could vaguely guess that Guan Fanggang must have something to ask. No matter what, he was still the Patriarch of the Guan Family, so he could not simply believe his own words. Although three or five years was not a long time, it seemed that most of the time he had was to give the Guan Family more chances. After all, no one knew what would happen in the future.    

Are you really from the Prophet?    

Nodding, Guan Fanggang's eyes also flickered with light. In the Primordial Era, Prophet was renowned throughout the world, and her methods were first amongst the Three Sects and Nine Regions. However, her fivefold boundary had cut off all contact with the outside world, so she had very little contact with the Prophet. But there was no need to doubt the methods of the Prophet.    

Junior is not from Prophet, what's more, the current Prophet is already lonely, and no longer has the grace from back then. Qin Shaojie did not hide anything from him, but after hearing his words, Qin Shaojie also noticed the disappointment that flashed across Guan Fanggang's face.    

Actually, the Patriarch had already guessed this outcome, so he didn't have any good intentions. However, this junior is willing to bet that what this junior said about the Sheng Jia today was most likely true. I believe that Clan Leader is also well aware of this point, and perhaps all the elders of the Guan Family are extremely clear about this, it is just a question that everyone is willing to believe.    

Sighing, people sometimes became like this. They had clearly discovered the truth of the matter, but no matter what, they could not truly believe it. In this kind of situation, he had to think of all sorts of ways to deceive his eyes, it was just that this kind of method was not only deceiving himself but also completely useless in Qin Shaojie's eyes.    

Guan Fanggang continued to look at Haoyue, who was in the sky, and saw that the entire backyard was empty. The night wind carried a slight chill, which made Guan Fanggang feel as if he had caught a chill, and lightly coughed a little.    

Qin Shaojie was right, he couldn't see through all of this as clearly as a youth. However, who would be able to feel the burden that Guan Fanggang was shouldering right now?    

How long had the Guan Family been around? Tens of thousands of years or even longer. How many people were there in the entire Guan Family? Tens of thousands of his clansmen. There were also countless branches.    

Once the Guan Family fell, how many people would die here?    

Therefore, although Guan Fanggang was very tired, he had no choice but to walk forward while carrying a heavy burden. This was because, other than him, no one could carry this burden.    

Ziying told me that you were very good and even hoped that I could find you and find a way out of the Guan family. After a long while, Guan Fanggang also said to himself.    

What kind of expert was Guan Fanggang? Even if You Ming was in front of him, he would not care about it anymore. And what kind of powerful existence was the Guan Family? Even the sects were inferior.    

But now, his own daughter was telling him that he could ask Qin Shaojie for guidance if he fell into such a predicament.    

Even though he found it hard to believe, Guan Fanggang was not a stubborn person. However, the premise of all of these was that Guan Fanggang believed that Qin Shaojie was most likely the descendant of the Prophet.    

But looking at it now, the only way for him to think that Qin Shaojie could help the Guan Family would be through no means.    

Previously, Guan Jian protected Xiao Qi and I as we traveled back without being persecuted by anyone, so I gave Guan Jian a good fortune. But right at this moment, Qin Shaojie suddenly had the look of Gu Zuo, and suddenly mentioned Guan Jian. It was just that this sentence had quite a profound meaning to it, and even Guan Fanggang, who did not even look at Qin Shaojie directly, slightly turned around, and seriously sized him up.    

Guan Jian's talent was not bad, his strength was tyrannical, and there were not many people in the entire Guan Family who held true power within their fivefold boundary. This was also a very important pawn of the Guan Family. Even if Guan Jian was not a direct descendant of the Guan Family, his status in the family would still have a certain amount of authority. Qin Shaojie's so-called gift of good fortune made Guan Fanggang a little dazed.    

But when he saw the certainty in Qin Shaojie's eyes, it clearly did not seem to be fake, furthermore, there was no way to fake something like this. He just wanted to know if he can casually find someone to ask Guan Jian.    

What good fortune? This also aroused Guan Fanggang's curiosity, since good fortune was not something that could be given to an ordinary person, and the good fortune that Guan Jian needed right now was not something that an ordinary person could afford.    

Give him a chance, break through Sky Origin Stage!    

Qin Shaojie's voice wasn't loud, but it was as if the sky had been struck by lightning, and exploded in Guan Fanggang's ears. At this moment, his expression had finally showed an extremely great change, not because his mind wasn't firm, but because even Guan Fanggang had been able to achieve a breakthrough in his Sky Origin Stage.    

Of course, I also asked him for a small favor, which was to use the authority of the head of the inner city's law enforcement to secretly investigate the relationship between the Meng family and the Sheng Jia. Shrugging his shoulders, he did not care about the change in Guan Fanggang's attitude at all. Guan Jian's personality was calm, he seemed to be a person of few words, and very rarely did he form alliances and groups. However, it was this kind of people that could catch others off guard, and even make outsiders unable to detect him. Qin Shaojie continued to add.    

Hearing that, Guan Fanggang's pupils that were looking at Qin Shaojie also shrank, he had seen too many people, but he had never seen someone as inconspicuous as this. How could Qin Shaojie, a nineteen year old boy, possibly do such a thing when prepared against a rainy day? Even Guan Fanggang himself wouldn't be able to do it.    

Moreover, Qin Shaojie had only just arrived at the fivefold boundary, so even Xiao Qi was not very clear about the matter of the fivefold boundary.    

This young man's scheming was truly frightening.    

Guan Jian promised you? After fiercely taking a deep breath, Guan Fanggang also asked a question that even he found hard to believe.    

Yes, he did. He would probably come back to the Guan Family in a few days. Nodding, Qin Shaojie also responded. Qin Shaojie had complete trust in Guan Jian's methods of handling affairs. This kind of person was loyal to the Guan Family. Although the Guan Family gave him a lot of support and help due to the fact that he had the real power, the Guan Family still did not place Guan Jian in high demand. Otherwise, Guan Fanggang would have asked Guan Jian to investigate something long ago.    

The interest between the direct line and the branch was quite delicate. What any clan feared the most was not the invasion of external enemies, but internal consumption. When a branch was larger, the direct descendant would be in danger. This point was something that Guan Fanggang could not comment on, but he was afraid that he would not be able to convince all the elders.    

He actually agreed to you.    

Clenching his fists, Guan Fanggang's eyes were filled with surprise.    

He had asked Xiao Qi before, and during the entire journey, Guan Jian and Qin Shaojie's communication was limited to just a few points of fivefold boundary, so there wasn't much to say. Furthermore, he did not mention anything about the so-called method of cultivation. This Qin Shaojie had only casually glanced at it, so why did Guan Jian agree to it?    

He had known Guan Jian for too long, this person was extremely steady and did not joke around, yet with such a temper, he actually agreed to the unrealistic promise made by a youth not even twenty years of age, what exactly was it?    

Having Mysterious Life Stage before the age of twenty was not bad, but in front of Peak Spirit Stage, he was still nothing more than an ant!    

So, what do you want to say?    

Ripples also appeared in Guan Fanggang's deep eyes at this moment and he immediately asked.    

Even Guan Jian is willing to believe me, so I want to make a deal with the Patriarch. Of course, the contents of this deal won't be particularly difficult for the Guan Family.    

You are Xiao Qi's friend and also a trusted friend. If you need anything, you can just say it. Guan Fanggang did not care about the word 'deal', he was straightforward about it, if Qin Shaojie's request was acceptable to the Guan Family, he would not care about the rewards. Just the fact that he could send Little Seven safely back to the fivefold boundary and stand out so much was enough for him to help out.    

I'm a very fair person, and I don't want Xiao Qi to feel that she owes me anything.    

Shaking his head, Qin Shaojie persevered on.    

What deal?    

I want the Guan Family to promise me one thing...
