"It is precisely because of this incident that the old man of the Ancient Clan has a grudge and has never delegated the power of the Ancient Clan to his eldest son, Gu Jintao!"
Mu Tianhua and Mu Lingfeng were talking to each other, while Gu Chen frowned as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment of silence, he raised his head and looked at the two men: "Is it true that there is no evidence, or is it that you are claiming that there is no evidence?"
However, his question made both of them slightly silent.
Mu Lingfeng said: "It may be the former, it may be the latter, who knows."
indeed so.
This matter has always been investigated internally by the Ancient Clan. The battle between the two major families and the Soul Sacrifice Palace also took place in the Ancient Clan, and the monstrous killing formation also occurred in the Ancient Clan.
It can be said that only people from the ancient tribe participated in everything.
Even though their herdsman clan has a close relationship with the ancient clan, they have only sent a few people to investigate with the ancient clan, but they are still dominated by the ancient clan.
Whether there is definite evidence or not, I am afraid only the senior officials of the ancient clan truly know.
Seeing the reactions of the two people, Gu Chen understood something.
"About this matter, I just said it casually. It has nothing to do with your matter. If you want to know the truth, wait until you return to the ancient tribe in the future to investigate on your own."
Mu Tianhua shook his head gently. There were many things that they could not say directly.
Everything requires Gu Chen to find the answer himself.
"Maybe I already understand."
After a brief silence, Gu Chen said: "The reason why the ancient clan is still controlled by the old man is enough to explain the problem."
"I'm afraid that the old man doesn't want to expose the matter and confine the eldest son to a situation of being unfaithful, unfilial, and unkind, but it is also because he knows the eldest son's character that he will not hand over the power to the eldest son."
Mu Tianhua and Mu Lingfeng were both listening to Gu Chen's words and did not interrupt Gu Chen.
Gu Chen then continued: "After all, the old man of the ancient clan is old and his lifespan is limited. The power of the ancient clan is destined to be handed over to others."
As he spoke, Gu Chen looked at the two of them with questioning eyes: "If I guess correctly, the old man's second son Gu Jinling is no longer here, right?"
"Oh? Why do you say that?" Mu Tianhua raised his sword eyebrows slightly.
The two of them didn't seem to have said anything about Gu Jin Ling, right?
"Since the old man did not hand over the Ancient Clan to his eldest son Gu Jintao, the second son must be the first choice, but the old man did not hand it over, which means that either the second son Gu Jinling is no longer here, or he cannot be reused. But with a big family like the Ancient Clan, It has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, so a large family naturally has a way of raising heirs, and this reason obviously doesn’t make sense!”
Gu Chen said: "In this case, the only possibility is that he is gone."
"Well, you are right!" A flash of appreciation flashed in Mu Tianhua's eyes, and then he said: "Back then, he died in the battle with the Soul Sacrifice Hall!"
At such a young age, he is not only ruthless and decisive in his methods, but also tenacious and confident in his work. He also has such a delicate mind, which is extremely rare among teenagers of this age.
Mu Tianhua pressed his hand and signaled: "Continue talking."
Gu Chen nodded and continued: "Now, the old man of the ancient clan has obviously decided that he will not hand over the ancient clan to the hands of his eldest son Gu Jintao. Then the next successor of the ancient clan can only be from the third generation. Choose."
"The son of Gujin Tao, the son of Gujin Ling, and the son of Gujin Sheng, that is, I..."
I don't know why, but every time I think of the name Gu Jin Sheng, Gu Chen's heart feels as if he's been whipped by a whip. It's not pain, but depression and discomfort.
Let him take a breath and pause for a moment.
"As far as I know, the ancient clan doesn't seem to know my existence. Therefore, this candidate will only be chosen between the son of Gujin Tao and the son of Gujin Ling."
"Gu Jinling has been dead for more than 20 years, and he is not very competitive, so the most likely person is Gu Jintao's son!"
"Uncle Hua used four people in the example he gave before, which means that Gu Jintao had four sons. These four sons were trained by the ancient clan as their successors, and the best one will be the one in the future. , take charge of the ancient clan!"
After saying that, Gu Chen took a slow breath and said, "I wonder if this junior guessed it correctly?"
But the two of them did not give Gu Chen a direct answer. They only looked at Gu Chen with surprised eyes.
Obviously, Gu Chen's words surprised both of them.
Mu Lingfeng, the third elder of the Mu tribe, directly praised: "Young master Gu can deduce so much just based on these, it has to be surprising. He is worthy of being the son of Gu Jinsheng and Mu Shiyan. He has combined the two of them." All the advantages!”
The ability to find key points in simple information and deduce the answers you want to know is not something that everyone can possess.
"It seems that this is life, the life of the ancient tribe! With Xiaochen here, the ancient tribe can at least live for tens of thousands more years!"
Mu Tianhua did not hesitate to praise him.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity, what a pity, I can't give birth to such an outstanding son!"
"The patriarch can't say that. A son-in-law is half a son. When Xiaochen and Yun Xi get married in the future, our herdsmen will naturally benefit, right? Hahaha!"
"That's right, hahaha!"
Mu Tianhua and Mu Lingfeng looked at each other and laughed, then turned to look at Gu Chen with the word "like" written all over their eyes.
This made Gu Chen extremely embarrassed.
But he also knew that it was not a bad thing to be praised by the two big guys in front of him.
In the future, if anything happens, with the help of these two big guys, complicated things will become much simpler.
As for getting married...
Gu Chen hasn't thought about it yet. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't!
Only he himself knows his situation. Faced with the pursuit that may come at any time from an unknown soul sacrificial hall, and the worry of his life that the souls of the seven holy stars cannot be found in the ancient ruins emperor's tomb, he himself does not know that he is How long can you live?
Don't want to harm others.
"Xiaochen!"
The two laughed for a while and then stopped. Mu Tianhua looked at Gu Chen and his expression gradually became serious: "The four young masters of the ancient clan are in charge of the affairs of the ancient clan and have been recognized by almost the entire ancient clan. , the eldest son Gu Xiaoran is the leader among the four! If there are no accidents, the person who takes over from the old man of the ancient clan is Gu Xiaoran!"
"Gu Xiaoran is a very resourceful and capable person. It can be said that his three younger brothers all obey him!"
Gu Chen was stunned: "If that's the case, then why haven't you succeeded to the throne?"
With such a status and the support of almost the entire Ancient Clan, it stands to reason that the old man should have given up his position as the leader of the Ancient Clan to Gu Xiaoran!
Mu Tianhua said: "Because the old man from the ancient clan is also waiting for someone to appear!"
Gu Chen frowned and pointed at himself: "Uncle Hua, doesn't it mean me?"
"You are right, the old man of the ancient clan is waiting for you, waiting for your appearance!"
Mu Tianhua said: "Although the old man doesn't know whether you are still there, for so many years, the old man of the ancient clan has been trying his best to find you!"
"If you show up, based on your father's status in the ancient clan, you must be Gu Xiaoran's biggest competitor. Plus with the support of the old man, you have a great chance of winning!"
