Because it’s impossible for everyone to be just with family, there are too many friends, colleagues, and classmates. If others find out, it will cause unnecessary trouble.
"Ancestor, I agree with what you said, but besides that, there are three other people who know..."
"It’s alright, Ah Ze is destined to be here, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to co in. As for Xiao Wen and Ling Nan, they’re closely related to the Mysterious Dragon Box, so it’s normal for them to know."
"Are you going out now?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked with a smile in her eyes, then continued, "Ah Ze will have everything about your identity ready for you."
"I appreciate Ah Ze’s effort."
"What effort? That’s what he should do." Gu Qiaoqiao poured a cup of tea for the ancestor and another for herself. She didn’t particularly like tea, but this tea was truly delicious.
"Qiaoqiao, I plan to go out and have a look around after the Spring Festival."
"Where do you want to go?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked curiously.
Gu Junbai paused for a mont, then replied frankly, "I’ll first go to Sky Sea City to visit an old friend."
"Sky Sea City?" Gu Qiaoqiao was taken aback.
"Yes, Sky Sea City, the place where Ah Ze had the accident."
"Is your old friend like you?"
"No." Gu Junbai took a sip of the tea and said softly, "She has been asleep for a long ti, I wonder how she is now?"
Gu Qiaoqiao found it very strange.
What kind of person would sleep for so long, and if the Gu Family Ancestor knew her, it ant she was as old as he was. What kind of place allows soone to sleep for several dynasties?
It’s truly unbelievable.
However, seeing that the Gu Family Ancestor didn’t want to elaborate, Qiaoqiao didn’t ask further but suddenly rembered sothing, "Ancestor, do you know soone nad Dongfang Yu?"
"Dongfang Yu?" Gu Junbai frowned slightly, "Is he from the Dongfang clan of the Yankong Sect?"
Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes lit up and she quickly nodded, "Yes, from that sect. Nowadays, it seems only Dongfang Yu is left, but he has a White Cat with him. When Dongfang Yu found it, it was wearing a black Jade Pendant around its neck, which combined with a White Jade Stone and a ruby lotus... The White Cat is called Xiao Bai and is very close to ..."
Gu Junbai looked up at Gu Qiaoqiao, suddenly reached out, and stopped her mid-sentence, "Wait, what does the Jade Pendant look like?"
Gu Qiaoqiao thought for a mont, "It’s made of the sa material as the Mysterious Dragon Box, but purer, like a higher-grade gemstone extracted from the material of the Mysterious Dragon Box. The Jade Pendant is carved into the shape of a small fish, the craftsmanship is exquisite..."
"Does the cat have purple eyes?"
"Ah?" Gu Qiaoqiao was pleasantly surprised and widened her eyes, "Ancestor, it seems you do know Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai told that its previous owner used to draw Sky-drawing Talismans, and I guessed it might have been you."
"Transford into a cat?" Gu Junbai stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked slowly to the window, and looked at the lush mountains in the distance, saying softly, "That’s not a White Cat, it’s a White Tiger, my Divine Beast..."
Gu Qiaoqiao had been standing for a while and was truly astonished this ti, "Xiao Bai isn’t a cat, it’s a White Tiger..."
"Yes, it might be sealed, no wonder its aura can’t be felt."
"But now it’s contracted with Dongfang Yu."
"No matter." Gu Junbai waved his hand.
Gu Qiaoqiao knew in her heart, given Dongfang Yu’s nature now, if the Gu Family Ancestor went to find Xiao Bai, Dongfang Yu would definitely return it.
At that ti, it will depend on Xiao Bai’s opinion.
"By the way, Ancestor, that so-called Sect Leader Ouyang Wensheng from the Central Plains region, Xiao Bai seems to have a grudge against his daughter. He also has a Ruyi Ball, which seems very close to , with almost identical Spiritual Energy..."
Gu Qiaoqiao chattered on and realized there was so much to tell Gu Junbai.
Because so things he knew, and so he didn’t.
After all, Gu Junbai existed in the previous life, and all his mories were limited to the previous life. In this life, he hadn’t ventured out yet, and could only vaguely sense fortunes and misfortunes.
Gu Junbai listened quietly, listening to Gu Qiaoqiao talk about things he was unaware of.
His brows were always slightly furrowed.
In the previous life, Dongfang Yu and Ouyang Wensheng cultivated separately in their own worlds, having no ties to the Gu Family.
But in this life, they intertwined with the Gu Family with various attachnts.
These differences were because Gu Qiaoqiao possessed Spiritual Energy like his and obtained the Mysterious Dragon Box.
Naturally, it linked with the Mystic Sect.
Yet, he didn’t expect to receive information about Xiao Bai.
His White Tiger cub, also nad Xiao Bai, was quite a coincidence.
And that Ruyi Ball sounded like his Snow Spirit Ball.
And Ouyang Wensheng’s daughter?
"Qiaoqiao, it seems I must go out," Gu Junbai relaxed his brows, his complex emotions fleeting, returning to gentle and calm.
"Yes, Ancestor, you’re absolutely right, you must go out." Gu Qiaoqiao nodded vigorously, then proudly said, "At that ti, you’ll be the top existence of the Mystic Sect, and no one will dare have designs on our family again."
Gu Junbai rarely saw Gu Qiaoqiao act so childishly. Amused, he turned around, pointed at Gu Qiaoqiao with his finger, "You child, have you forgotten that there’s always soone better?"
"I haven’t forgotten." Gu Qiaoqiao chuckled mischievously, "But you’re different. Who could compare to your abilities..."
"Qiaoqiao, let tell you a story about this Small World of mine..."
"A story that happened here?"
"Yes." Gu Junbai nodded slightly, then looked toward the distant deep forest, his voice tranquil and pleasing.
"Once upon a ti, this grassland was bustling, inhabited by little animals like rabbits and spiritual mice. They lived together here, protected by a Barrier, which kept animals from the forest and mountains at bay. These little animals didn’t know about the world beyond the Barrier and lived happily.
Countless years passed, and one day, the owner of the Small World vanished, overturning destiny, causing the Barrier to disappear. The first to co to the grassland was a tiger, starting its hunt. Although the little animals were scared, one tiger wasn’t a huge threat to them. They thought the tiger was the fiercest until a lion, a leopard, and later a giant python arrived. Only then did they realize that their enemies were more than just the tiger..."
Gu Junbai pointed to the outside, "When I woke up, there weren’t many of these little animals left. Although I had chased the tiger and lion back to the forest, they were already scared out of their wits, so they were rarely seen on the grassland..."
