The Demon Lord of the Outside World

After these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle. Xu Sheng took the initiative to lead the topic to the Four Elements Gu Formation. Although there was a period of concern before, he still looked a little anxious. But it was not his fault. After all, it was really shocking for a first-level Gu Master to use a Gu Formation.

"It is difficult to be perfect in the world. I can only say that I have done my best. Besides, the Four Elements Gu Formation left by my parents is just a remnant formation. With my qualifications, I have already exhausted all my strength to activate it."

"Remnant formation?"

After hearing what Xu Wang said, the expressions of all the elders changed a little, but they did not make any sound. They just looked at the clan leader Xu Sheng. Obviously, such an open matter was still decided by the clan leader.

"Yes, I just found a page of the incomplete formation of the Four Elements Gu Formation in the books left by my parents. I have been trying since I became enlightened, but I can only activate it a few times."

"Hey, it is a Gu Formation after all. You are already gifted to drive it, Xu Wang. Don't underestimate yourself..."

Xu Sheng patted Xu Wang on the shoulder and spoke again.

"It doesn't matter if the Gu Formation is missing. If there is a sample of the incomplete formation, the family Gu Master can help deduce it..."

"Sorry, clan leader, I accidentally found this incomplete page when I was sorting out the books left by my parents. My parents wrote [burn it after recording it, don't let others record it] at the end, so..."

Xu Wang's face was full of apologies, as if he had really done something wrong and was reflecting on it. Seeing this, Xu Sheng didn't say much.

"You didn't do anything wrong. You were still young at the time. Once people knew that you were carrying this thing, you would naturally be remembered. It was right to follow your parents' arrangements."

Hearing this, Xu Wang seemed to be entangled. Finally, he took a deep breath before speaking.

"Master, if this formation is really important to the family, Xu Wang is willing to re-transcribe it from memory as much as possible, but... Xu Wang is now at a low level and has a shallow understanding, so it may be difficult to transcribe it for a while."

"Don't worry, don't worry, it's good that you have the heart to contribute to the family. After this competition, you can practice with peace of mind. The family will not take your parents' relics for nothing. After you transcribe the formation, the Xu family will give you a suitable price."

After saying this, Xu Sheng spoke again.

"I wonder what Xu Wang's plans are after this competition?"

Hearing this, Xu Wang looked dazed and straightforward on the surface, and thought for a while in his heart.

[The head of the Xu family, every word directly pointed out my behavior. At the beginning, the topic was to ask where the Four Elements Gu Array came from. After I attributed the source to my dead parents, he immediately changed the target and said that the family Gu Master could help deduce it. In fact, he wanted me to directly offer the Four Elements Gu Array... Then I directly said that the record was destroyed and pointed out that I was willing to hand over the Gu Array but I needed to wait until my cultivation was improved. Only then was he willing to use resources to buy the Gu Array. ]

The family always cares about you. Don't think that you are unimportant. After tying the interests of the two, they began to guide you to hand over your things for free. It seems that there is no problem, but what if you change the statement?

After a company recruits you, as your position is promoted, you start to need a better computer for work, so you buy a computer with your own money. Then the boss of the company finds you and says that your money is given by the company, so the computer you bought should also belong to the company.

What a joke.

After the discussion of the Four Elements Gu Array, Xu Sheng changed the subject and asked Xu Wang what plans he had in the future.

This seems to be caring, but what is the situation now? All the powerful people in the Xu family stood in front of Xu Wang. If Xu Wang's answer showed a tendency to favor one branch, it would mean that the leaders of other branches would distance themselves from him.

This was forcing him to take sides.

Xu Wang clasped his hands together, suddenly bent down, and spoke loudly.

"After Xu Wang's parents passed away, he was able to live to this day thanks to the care of his family. Now that he has achieved something, he naturally has to put the interests of his family first!"

Without waiting for the clan leader Xu Sheng to say anything, Xu Wang suddenly raised his head again.

"But everyone has selfish desires, Xu Wang dare not call himself a saint!"

"As far as Xu Wang knows, my parents died because they were killed by the evil thieves who robbed the caravan while protecting the goods. This has always been a hurdle in Xu Wang's heart, so Xu Wang hopes that after he has some strength, he can fight on the front line of the family and fight against the evil thieves, evil people and evil beasts, without hesitation!"

"………………"

"Hey... you have this intention, of course, it's good, but the evil is rampant and the evil beasts are fierce, you have to put your own safety first in everything..."

After speaking, the clan leaders and elders asked about his well-being for a few more words and then slowly left.

Old fox.

Xu Wang felt that the communication with Xu Sheng during this period of time was more tiring than fighting in the big competition. He had to be wary of the other party's tricks everywhere, and at the same time he couldn't show his ambition and the idea of ​​standing in line. In the end, he had to be polite in his words.

Is it tiring? Of course it's tiring.

But if you want to develop steadily, what's this tiredness?

The world is like a new chess game, and I will adapt to the changes.

I just hope that the future will be bright, and it doesn't matter if I temporarily abandon my true feelings.

……………………

At noon, another competition ended, and the winner of this battle was as expected, Xu Wenshuo.

After the battle, Xu Wenshuo naturally did not stay in the public lounge like Xu Wang, but returned to his family's mansion, found a small pavilion in the courtyard, and sat down to rest.

The shadow of the tree moved slightly, and the next moment, a fat old man with a kind face suddenly appeared in front of Xu Wenshuo. When he saw the visitor, Xu Wenshuo stood up quickly, not daring to be disrespectful.

"Grandpa."

"Well... sit down... how was today's competition?"

The old man took a slight step forward, walked slowly to the stone chair, and sat down slowly. He looked completely different from the person he suddenly appeared before.

"Using some tricks, we won the victory steadily... The next game is..."

"It's just a fight with that Xu Wang..."

The old man took Xu Wenshuo's words, opened his squinted eyes slightly, stretched out his hand and picked up the tea cup on the stone table.

"Grandpa Zu...do you think I will win?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Wenshuo finally asked. Before, even this morning, he felt that he would not lose. But just this morning, he saw Xu Wan activating the four-element Gu array, and the feeling in his heart A touch of unconfidence was infinitely amplified.

"You will win...and it is very likely that you will win..."

The old man took a sip of tea, then narrowed his eyes again.

"Why is Grandpa Zu so sure? Xu Wang used it this morning..."

"He took the initiative to reveal the weakness of the Gu array..."

"What?"

Hearing this, Xu Wenshuo didn't react for a while.

"Just after his competition ended, the clan leader led several elders to see him... That boy is very good."

As he spoke, the old man looked at Xu Wenshuo, his great-grandson.

"Every word he said was polite and polite, his interests were intact, his replies were flawless, he knew how to retreat in order to advance, and he had to compromise. The patriarch didn't get any benefits out of this kid."

Having said this, the old man suddenly smiled slightly, and then shook his head.

"The boy also knows that although the Gu formation is good, it is not omnipotent. Many high-level Gu masters in the family have seen the flaws this morning, so he did not hide it, but pointed it out directly. So direct, I am afraid that it has already Be prepared to lose."

"What? Grandpa Zu, you said...Xu Wan is ready to lose?"

Xu Wenshuo's face was filled with disbelief and he clenched his teeth unconsciously.

"Look at you like that, why are you so surprised... Nothing is absolute, but he was willing to give up his position as the first to be promoted to the first-level mid-level. If he can't keep it all, he is also willing to give up his position as the first in the competition."

The old man drank the tea in one gulp.

"Don't be discouraged if he wins. On the contrary, you should pay attention only if he loses."

The old man put the teacup back on the table.

"Last time he asked for a wine worm. What will he want this time?"
