When it was just dawn, Su Youzhu bent down and presented a bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone. He also cleaned up the weeds growing in the soil, and then arranged the tributes neatly.
Gu Jianlin silently stared at her busy back. It must be said that girls are more careful when doing things. Even things like visiting a grave can be done meticulously by her, especially when she clasped her hands in silent mourning, the morning light fell. On her fair and delicate face, there is a sense of peace and tranquility that has passed through time.
During this process, he also discovered something rather strange.
Su Youzhu is very familiar with this process.
Even better than him.
"When the teacher brought you here before, I was watching from the side."
Su Youzhu said expressionlessly: "So I remember it very clearly."
Gu Jianlin smiled silently and knelt in front of the tombstone, looking at the name on the inscription and clasping his hands together.
When he came here on Qingming Festival, he was more confused and puzzled, as well as eager for the truth. At that time, he knew nothing about the world and seemed to be lost in the drizzle. .
Now he has a sword in his hand, and his eyes are ignited with blood and fire.
It also makes it clear who the enemy is and who the enemy is.
Hatred is the best driving force in the world, it can keep you from feeling lost.
"I have helped you protect the people you wanted to protect."
Gu Jianlin said softly: "I have helped you do what you have not done. From now on, those who were persecuted because of their depravity have been saved, and your comrades have all seen the light of day again. Including blood The truth of the Yue Massacre incident is now clear, and I will not let any of those damn people go."
"The curse of the Suzaku clan, now I think about it, should also be related to the third method. I don't know why you are so unlucky, but you have become the person chosen by an ancient supreme. But I am not qualified to say anything to you, because I It seems to be similar to you. Our family has been really unlucky for eight lifetimes."
He smiled silently, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the tombstone: "But don't worry, I won't let my mother be implicated. Just like you told me back then, a man's bounden duty is to protect the most important thing in his life." An important woman. If I could, I would let the curse of the Suzaku clan end on me."
Su Youzhu stared at him slightly sideways, with a well-hidden warmth hidden in her clear and lively eyes.
Because Gu Jianlin hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.
He is the kind of person who is very worried and habitually keeps everything in his heart.
No matter how stressed I am, I won't tell anyone.
Only when facing the dead can he really open up his heart and say something from his heart.
"Speaking of which, you might as well let me get in touch with the extraordinary earlier, otherwise I would have been a demigod by now, and many things wouldn't be as troublesome as they are now. I can just cut them off with a knife when I'm in trouble."
"Sixth level turns out to be such an easy thing. I'm afraid you've been living like a dog for so many years, right?"
"Youzhu is your student, but you have hidden it from me for so many years. It's really too much. You might as well let her show up earlier, so that we can get together and scold you when we are bored."
"The president turns out to be such a great person. I am really envious that you have been able to work with her for many years."
"Lao Gu, the president is no longer here. The world has betrayed her."
Gu Jianlin's eyes were full of emotions, and he whispered: "I tried to save her, but I couldn't."
The breeze rustled through the branches and leaves of the trees.
Su Youzhu reached out and touched his hair: "It's okay, you have done a good job."
In fact, this is what Gu Jianlin really wants to say, and it is also a hurdle that he will never get over in his heart. He has great anger and grievances but no one can express them, so he can only come to this silent cemetery to express them.
After a long time, a ray of morning light fell from the sky, making the tombstone shimmer.
Gu Jianlin suddenly asked: "Youzhu, do you have anything to ask?"
Since returning from the Ancient God Realm, the brother and sister have not talked openly for a long time.
Su Youzhu rested her chin on her hands, her platinum short hair falling to her forehead. Her eyes were as calm as water in the morning light: "Originally, I had many questions to ask you, but in fact you are already using actions to slowly give me answers."
"Why don't you let me speak and you listen."
She turned around, with a smile like a thawing glacier on her lips: "The person chosen by the Qilin Master should be you, right? If I guess correctly, when the teacher entered the Qilin Immortal Palace for the last time, he and the black Supreme Some kind of deal was reached. But I don’t know, when did you get that power?”
Gu Jianlin recalled what happened four months ago and explained softly: "On Qingming Festival, I received a courier without a sender. In that weird courier, there was only one mask, a unicorn mask."
Su Youzhu was slightly startled.
"After I put on that mask, I got that kind of power. Afterwards, I went to the express station to check, and it turned out that even the old man from the express station in my memory disappeared. People said that this person did not exist. You Do you remember?" Gu Jianlin did not say anything about his impersonation of Lord Qilin, mainly because he was afraid of scaring her.
Su Youzhu grew up with him and was very familiar with that old community. Unfortunately, even though she thought about it for a long time, she still couldn't remember it: "I don't remember that there was a guy named Lao Zhang at your express station."
Gu Jianlin shook his head. These things are no longer important now. He is the kind of person who thinks straightly. As long as he continues to become stronger, all mysteries will reveal their true nature.
"Because of this, you were able to burst out with that kind of power in Black Cloud City, including when you were in the Forest of Burial, and you were able to summon the Qilin Wedge to save me, because that was your authority."
Su Youzhu stared at him and said word by word: "You two, father and son, are exactly the same."
Gu Jianlin hummed, then felt something was wrong.
Why are they comparing father and son again?
Gu Jianlin thought that he was stronger than that man. After all, you could tell by looking at his rank.
In all the years he has been a father, he has only reached the sixth level.
The son has been promoted to the sixth level in just four months.
Which one is strong and which one is weak is clear at a glance.
"What happened to your shadow?"
Su Youzhu frowned and asked, "Why do you have two ways?"
Gu Jianlin thought for a while and explained: "Perhaps this is the true authority of Lord Qilin, the power of devouring. Looking at the end of history, Lord Qilin has never used this forbidden power. This is his true power. The trump card is an ability that no one knows about. I once swallowed the dragon bone of Lord Zhulong and gained his power. When necessary, my Qilin form can also transform into the form of Zhulong."
In ancient myths and legends, Qilin has the characteristics of many mythical beasts.
The ancients do not deceive me, everything is traceable.
"last question."
Su Youzhu raised her beautiful eyes and asked seriously: "Will Lord Qilin kill you one day?"
Gu Jianlin had never thought about this problem. According to the records in the tablet of destiny, the real Lord Qilin had transcended the shackles of the body, and his soul soared to the sky and merged into the Zhuzhao Sacred Tree.
No one knew whether He was dead or alive.
It's even less clear what He wants to do.
According to his speculation, the ancient supremes pursued the third method in different ways.
Lord Qilin gave up his own power and transferred his ancient god status to him through the secret technique of transplanting flowers and trees. No one knows how this Black Supreme did it. At least the results are very successful. The only The disadvantage is that it takes time for him to grow before he can reach the top.
Through some secret means, Venerable Suzaku used a curse that lasted for thousands of years as an introduction to continuously slaughter the Gu family bloodline, and finally created a life adapted to the third method, that is, Lao Gu.
The Baize clan created a third method container by copying Lao Gu's genes.
Venerable Zhulong has been planning for more than two thousand years, but something unexpected happened at the last minute, but at least he did complete the third method, because his consciousness has appeared in that mysterious space.
The appearance of Skylark makes everything even more confusing.
As for Venerable Xuanming, no one knows what he is talking about so far. If this ancient supreme being is really indifferent to everything, he may sleep until the end of time.
Finally, there is Venerable Qiongqi, an ancient supreme being who was the first to arrive on Earth. He originated from the mysterious third power. Logically speaking, his progress should be the fastest, but so far there has been no movement.
Not even His clan appears in history.
The president said that Venerable Qiongqi did not need to worry and did not know what the reason was.
"I don't know how to answer that."
Gu Jianlin stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at the scenery at the top of the mountain. At the end of the red tiles and green trees was a sparkling sea, reflected in his dark eyes: "I can only say, I will try my best. Live."
When the wind blew, Su Youzhu flashed in front of him like a ghost, and the leaves on the branches made a sound like the tide.
Seeing Gu Lin's astonished eyes, she gently stood on her tiptoes and hugged his neck.
"If Lord Qilin really wants to kill you, I will protect you."
She breathed softly into his ear, as if she was telling a big secret.
Because of the height difference, Gu Jianlin was forced to lower his head, lost his center of gravity, and stumbled forward.
Eventually they pressed against the trunk of a tree together.
It looked like Gu Jianlin pushed the girl in front of him against the wall.
Boom boom.
Gu Jianlin could hear his own heartbeat, which was rare and violent.
The blood also seemed to be heating up.
"Don't think too much, I promised the teacher to protect you, and I will do what I say."
Su Youzhu turned her head away from him and said expressionlessly: "It's my business if I like you. It's your business whether you like me or not. I won't force you or interfere with you."
After saying that, she flashed away again, leaving a calm and cold voice: "Thank you for being honest with me."
Gu Jianlin stared at her retreating back. It turned out that what she wanted to find out most was whether she would become a container and eventually become a sacrifice for the ancient supreme being to complete the third method.
In fact, he already had a vague answer to this matter.
That just won't happen.
Because Lord Qilin may have a bigger plan.
The six ancient supreme beings are all chasing the third method, so what is their purpose?
Once you master the third method, you can indeed become the strongest being.
The problem is that the six ancient supremes can finally reach that end in different ways.
As for what the end point will be, no one knows.
The third method is just a process, not the final goal.
Including those words that Venerable Qilin said to him secretly, they were also meaningful.
"I want you to be as strong as me, and I also want you to be as lonely as me..."
Gu Jianlin even felt that the Black Supreme knew him, but unfortunately he could not remember that he had ever encountered such a majestic life in his life, so he could only laugh it off as an illusion.

Today, Funing Garden on Taipei Road is a little cold. After all, it is not a holiday, and there are not many people coming to pay homage to the deceased. A group of men in black suits are standing on the winding mountain road, holding black umbrellas.
They were members of the Si family. Since the collective evacuation of the world of order, Fengcheng has become a very rare city with a vacuum of extraordinary forces. As the name suggests, it is a city where there is no gathering of sublime forces.
The Si family naturally occupied the magpie's nest and dominated the city's sublimators with lightning speed.
In one night, they had completely taken over the city's news media.
The collapse of the Deep Space Technology Building last night was packaged as a gas explosion accident. The port has also been reopened. In fifteen minutes, the dawn combat sequence fleet will officially dock.
Peak City will become the base camp for the rebels of the Order.
Agent Zhou walked up the mountain road holding flowers and large and small bags. His subordinates followed him and smoked cigarettes. From the corner of his eye, he looked at the men in suits on both sides of the mountain road intentionally or unintentionally, with a slightly wary look in their eyes.
Today was the weekend, and they rarely had time to visit their old friends, but they saw this group of weirdos.
Years of detective experience tell them that none of these men in suits is good.
At this time, a young man came from the end of the mountain road.
He was a handsome young man who looked familiar, but he couldn't remember his name.
Gu Jianlin walked down the mountain road, passed by the detectives from the Donghai Road Police Station, and smiled silently.
Not being able to remember is a good thing.
Agent Zhou had already taken Confused Heart Tea, and after a long period of hypnosis, they had forgotten about him.
These agents would only remember that Professor Gu had a son back then, but they would not remember who he was.
This was something he did deliberately, and it's not a good thing to remember him.
If possible, he even hoped that his family would not remember him.
"boss."
Old Master Si walked out of the shade of the tree on crutches and whispered: "Your family has returned to Fengcheng, and Miss Youzhu's body escorted them back safely. If there is nothing else, I will arrange for Miss Youzhu to The main body is to fuse with the holy remains, thereby mastering the power of original return."
Gu Jianlin nodded slightly: "They didn't encounter any resistance?"
Mr. Si smiled and said: "How is that possible? Order World has sent a total of thirty waves of sniper teams."
Gu Jianlin stared at him silently, waiting for a reply.
"Mr. Jing killed them, and the bodies were hung neatly in the Catholic church at Fengcheng Railway Station. The scene was very religious. We will have to help wipe their butts later." Old Mrs. Si looked strange.
"I see."
Gu Jianlin hummed and looked down at his phone: "It's time for the teacher to come back, right?"
