Old Master Gu’s face turned bitter, isn’t it just that he fears they might slaughter you?

"Humph! Your intentions are quite proper! Such a big matter, and you kept it from us!" The white-haired elder flicked his sleeve, making the table clap loudly, "You are our descendant, and he is also a descendant of the Gu Family. Although we old folks are elderly, we aren’t blind. Just because this boy has the God-Devil Physique, are we going to kill our own kin? Have you lost your mind?!"

Old Master Gu was a bit stunned. "Elder, what do you mean..."

"God-Devil Physique is just God-Devil Physique, so what? A God-Devil Physique that only appears once in several thousand years actually fell upon the Gu Family. What does that indicate? Can’t you think it through properly?" The white-haired elder almost wanted to poke Old Master Gu’s head with a finger.

Old Master Gu was bewildered. The God-Devil Physique falling on the Gu Family, what does it indicate? Does it indicate that Gu Yelin has extraordinary talent? Or does it indicate that in the future, the Gu Family will become a target for all?

Looking at the eyes of the white-haired elder, a flash of inspiration struck Old Master Gu’s heart. Previously, to protect Gu Yelin, he always thought of the impact of the God-Devil Physique on everyone negatively. But if thought from a different angle, God-Devil Physique, a rarity of thousands of years; if Gu Yelin himself can really grasp it, then his future will be immeasurable.

And the Gu Family might also have a chance to reach a new height.

Thinking like this, Old Master Gu’s eyes brightened for a moment but quickly dimmed again. Although this idea was good, he dared not gamble his grandson’s life for it.

"Elder, we might think like this, but outsiders..."

"What about outsiders?" The elder in white glared, "This boy has earned countless merits for the country over the years. If this were ancient times, he could be granted the title of King of a different surname! So, our Gu Family descendants suffer, and yet they are the ones scorned at the end? Is anything so good? Remember this, even if one day this boy’s identity is exposed and everyone rises against him, Gu Family’s pride must never be discarded! From ancient times till now, Gu Family has never been a bunch of useless cowards! Not before, not now! Do you know why Gu Family has always stood tall? It’s because Gu Family protects its own! Gu Family unites! If you dare perform a righteous but destructive act, do you believe I won’t waste you with a sheet of paper?"

Old Master Gu was scolded head-to-toe, and he felt helplessly bitter about it. It was him who worried about a righteous but destructive act, but who would have thought it would reverse so dramatically.

Gu Yelin sat quietly on the mat, silently listening to his grandfather being reprimanded by the family’s elder, a gentle warmth slowly flowing in his deep dark eyes.

"By the way, calling you here today also has another reason." The white-haired elder finished scolding and drank the tea on the table in one gulp, "Three years from now, Xuanjin to this plane might face a calamity. At that time, creatures will suffer, smoke and war will spread, unimaginable. Gu Family is the ancient martial arts family of Xuanjin; there’s a responsibility to protect Xuanjin from foreign disturbances. So, beginning now, you need to prepare entirely and plan to be ready at any moment for the calamity in three years. As for the young girl this boy married... Ah!"

Gu Yelin’s heart sank, and Old Master Gu was full of confusion.

"Elder, what do you mean?"

The white-haired elder deeply glanced at Gu Yelin, "That young girl is the Chosen One. She came for the calamity, and when the calamity is over, she will also return to the void."

"What?!" Old Master Gu exclaimed in surprise, "Soul returning to void?! Girl Qing?!"

"What are you shouting for? Look at your grandson, he probably knew this long ago, right?"

Only then did Old Master Gu react, as Gu Yelin hadn’t said a word until now. He turned to look, only to see Gu Yelin with a gloomy face, murderous aura radiating, dark waves surging in his deep dark eyes.

"Lao San, when did you find out?"

Gu Yelin’s breath hitched, taking a deep breath, his voice somewhat suppressed, "A few days ago, The Holy Monk."

He means that The Holy Monk told him a few days ago.

"And the An Family? Does the An Family know about this?" Old Master Gu couldn’t imagine; if An Muyun, that old fellow knew his granddaughter was the Chosen One and after the calamity ended, she would return to the void, would he spurt a mouthful of blood. That old fellow struggled for nineteen years to find his little granddaughter, finally having a good year, now if he knew this news...

He really couldn’t bear thinking further.

"Didn’t tell them." The chill around Gu Yelin intensified, not to mention Elder An, even Ye Chenghong, he couldn’t disclose a word.

Old Master Gu remained silent for a long time before digesting this news. Originally, he thought the Chosen One was just a chance to solve the problem during the calamity’s arrival. Who could expect after the calamity ended, the Chosen One would also return to the void?

Damn the Heavenly Dao! Old Master Gu couldn’t help but curse internally.

"Currently, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu, the Four Divine Beasts, already have two unsealed. I believe Divine Powers are gradually recovering. That young girl has already known her identity, and probably already knows she will ultimately return to the void." The white-haired elder stroked his beard, then turned to look at Gu Yelin, "Boy, I know you want to save her. The Holy Monk must have told you how to save the Chosen One. However, I hope you remember at all times, you also have the responsibility of the Gu Family."

Gu Yelin remained silent, lowering his gaze, enveloped in a still deathly atmosphere.

The white-haired elder was about to say something, but was stopped by the black-clothed elder next to him. Puzzled, he turned his head, only to see the black-clothed elder shaking his head silently.

After a moment’s pause, the white-haired elder sighed helplessly. He almost forgot that this kid, besides being a descendant of the Gu Family, also had a God-Devil Physique.

The God-Devil Physique, how could they possibly control it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Gu Yelin suddenly spoke.

"As long as I’m here, the Gu Family will be. Even if I’m not, I’ll ensure the Gu Family will have a bright future." As long as he lived, the Gu Family would be safe. If one day, he were to leave with An Yiqing, he would also leave the Gu Family with a prosperous future.

Old Master Gu’s eyes reddened slightly, his body trembled as he looked at Gu Yelin, who was exuding an aura of desolation. He could feel the sorrow and despair of knowing that the woman he loved might die.

Back when his wife passed away, despite being as calm as he was, he wanted to leave with her.

The Gu Family had a romantic at heart, especially Gu Yelin; An Yiqing was his life!

"Hmph! You’re young, but you sure talk big!" The white-haired elder suddenly snorted coldly, unleashing a powerful pressure.

Old Master Gu was shocked. Before he could react, he felt that pressure suffocating him. Seeing Gu Yelin again, his fists clenched tightly on his knees, teeth gritted, sweating profusely. Even someone as strong as him couldn’t resist the ancestor’s pressure.

"Still alright! But your current strength is quite trash!" The white-haired elder withdrew the pressure, raised an eyebrow, and coldly looked at Gu Yelin, "Demigod Peak may seem impressive in the Martial Cultivation World, but compared to those old guys, you’re far behind. Enter Breaking Void to Divinity as soon as possible, and don’t boast about things that might bite your tongue in the end!"

Gu Yelin’s eyes sharpened, "Yes."

Pleased with his response, the white-robed elder’s eyes showed a hint of satisfaction. He waved his sleeve, "Alright, go back. Remember, anticipate problems and prepare completely. Fists are the hard truth!"

Gu Yelin stood up, supporting the nearly exhausted Old Master Gu, and left the stone room.

After the two of them left, the three ancestors watched their departing figures and slowly furrowed their brows.

"Brother, do you think this kid can make it through?" the black-clothed elder asked. By seniority, he should call the white-haired elder "ancestor," but at their age, seniority really didn’t matter. So they just became elder brother, second brother, and third brother.

"Heh, I think he’s alright!" The white-haired elder suddenly revealed a meaningful smile, "This kid is a tough one and would do anything for that little girl. Didn’t you hear him say, the Holy Monk told him personally. Is that Holy Monk someone anyone can see? This kid even managed to convince the Holy Monk, I find it quite interesting."

"Elder brother is right, I like this young boy," the always smiling elder finally spoke, "In five thousand years, a God-Devil Physique has only appeared once; this kid is the second. The result is yet to be known, and besides, isn’t there that little girl, the Chosen One? She’s not simple either, being a Dragon-Taming Art Successor!"

"Indeed," the black-clothed elder thought for a moment, then nodded, "Since ancient times, Chosen Ones and Dragon-Taming Art successors were different individuals. This time, it’s really strange. Maybe there’s some opportunity here."

The white-robed elder slowly stood, dusting off his clothes, and said leisurely, "Let’s just watch. These two kids aren’t easy to deal with."

Meanwhile, on the other side, after Gu Yelin and Old Master Gu left the mountain, they returned to the study room. It took Old Master Gu a while to fully digest the information he had heard. Looking at the expressionless Gu Yelin, he suddenly felt a headache coming on.

"What do you plan to do?" he asked.

Gu Yelin didn’t even think, "Resist the Heavenly Dao."

The tea Old Master Gu had just drunk sprayed out with a "pfft." Hearing Gu Yelin’s tone, he felt that resisting the Heavenly Dao sounded as easy as picking cabbages at the market.

"The Heavenly Dao... isn’t so easy to deal with!"

"The God-Devil Physique is beyond the control of the Heavenly Dao."

Old Master Gu understood what Gu Yelin meant. The God-Devil Physique wasn’t under the Heavenly Dao’s control and wasn’t easy to deal with. In the end, who would win or lose was still uncertain.

"Sigh! Since you’ve decided, then work hard. That Girl Qing is a good child, I don’t want her to get into trouble either. You don’t have to worry about the Gu Family aspect, tonight call back your dad and second and third uncles, and we’ll plan properly."
