When he arrived upstairs, the serious smile on Cui Yingxiong's face disappeared, and he happily poured Gu Yuan a cup of tea.
"Did this breakthrough go smoothly?"
Gu Yuan sat on the chair, took the tea, smiled and nodded: "It's okay."
"So, your current strength is probably A level?" Cui Yingxiong continued to ask.
Gu Yuan pondered for a moment and said from a cautious point of view: "I'm not sure about this, but I feel it's about the same. There is also a gap between A-level warriors and extraordinary ones!"
Although Gu Yuan did not give a clear answer, Cui Yingxiong also understood the other party's meaning.
"So, is it really A-level? Okay, okay!" Cui Yingxiong's face lit up with joy.
Gu Yuan was a little puzzled.
He was the one who achieved the breakthrough. Even if Cui Yingxiong was happy for himself, he wouldn't be so happy, right?
"Okay, I understand. You should go back first. If you haven't been home for so long, I guess your uncle and aunt miss you." Cui Yingxiong said cheerfully.
"Well...then I'll leave first?"
"Let's go, let's go." Cui Yingxiong waved his hand at Gu Yuan, motioning for him to walk faster.
When Gu Yuan was about to go downstairs, he looked back and saw that Cui Yingxiong seemed to have taken out his mobile phone and was about to make a call.
And when he saw Gu Yuan turning his head, he immediately covered his phone and raised his chin at him.
"Let's go quickly, stop whining."
Looking at Cui Yingxiong's mysterious look, Gu Yuan scratched his head, turned around and went downstairs.
After confirming that Gu Yuan left, Cui Yingxiong quickly found an office and walked in.
"I am Cui Yingxiong, the operator is Elder Ai."
After waiting for about two minutes, Elder Ai's voice came from the other end of the phone.
During this process, Cui Yingxiong's mobile phone was always by his ear, and he did not put it down just because he needed to wait.
"Cui Xingjun, what's wrong?" Elder Ai's tone sounded quite relaxed.
"Elder, Gu Yuan has returned today."
"Well, I know this." Elder Ai smiled.
Because of the bronze sacred tree, although Elder Ai was in the capital, he still paid attention to Gu Yuan's every move.
When Gu Yuan went to sea before, Elder Ai was actually a little nervous, but when he thought that Gu Yuan was accompanied by an S-level sword cultivator Fu Canglan, he felt that his worries were too much.
If Gu Yuan can't even be considered safe by staying with Fu Canglan, then where else can guarantee Gu Yuan's absolute safety?
"Elder Ai, I briefly asked Gu Yuan just now. He is now as strong as A. He made a breakthrough in Jiao City before."
Elder Ai was silent for a moment and said softly: "I also know this, Cui Xingjun, what do you mean?"
"Ahem, elder, that's what I think. Gu Yuan already has A-level strength now. In fact, I am only an A-level formation master with average combat power. If I encounter a difficult opponent, Gu Yuan can't solve it. , In fact, I may not be able to solve it. Take a look, do you want to arrange for someone to come over and be the captain of the Star Town Demon Division?" Cui Yingxiong did not hesitate and immediately expressed his thoughts.
After understanding Cui Yingxiong's intention, Elder Ai also laughed.
"It seems that you have had enough of this Star City?"
Cui Yingxiong could only smile bitterly: "That's not what I meant. In fact, there is nothing wrong with staying in Star City. It's just that Elder Ai, the pressure on my heart is really too great..."
"Okay, I understand. You can stay in Star City for the time being. Gu Yuan... probably won't be able to stay in Star City for long."
Cui Yingxiong heard this and was surprised: "What do you mean?"
"Let's not talk about it for now. Let's talk about it later. After Gu Yuan leaves Star City, you can come back."
Cui Yingxiong didn't dare to ask any more questions immediately, but he was quite curious.
Originally, he just hoped that Elder Ai could arrange for an S-level master to come over and he could go back. After all, Cui Xingjun didn't think he was capable of continuing to protect him.
Gu Yuan now.
Unexpectedly, the person who is leaving is actually Gu Yuan?
"Northern Xinjiang? Or Guanlong Mountain?" Cui Yingxiong thought for a long time and felt that Guanlong Mountain was more likely. After all, with Gu Yuan's talent and achievements, it would not be inappropriate even if he really arranged to enter Guanlong Mountain. of.
Moreover, if Elder Ai really wants to protect Gu Yuan, Guanlong Mountain is indeed a good place.
Beijing.
After hanging up the phone, Elder Ai looked at the man sitting in front of him.
The other person's age seemed to be around forty. He was tall, with clear outlines, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and a high and straight nose. He could be called handsome, but there was a conspicuous scar from his left ear to his chin. Really awkward.
Facing Elder Ai, the man sat upright with a solemn expression, and his hands fell on his knees very naturally, like a primary school student in class.
After looking at the phone he just hung up, Elder Ai raised his head again and looked at the man in front of him.
"You mean, when you arrived at the scene, the demon was gone?"
"That's right." The man said immediately, "Even if the demon species wants to be reborn, it will exist for a while. But in fact, when we arrived, there was no sign of the demon species' existence. And based on my preliminary understanding of Gu Yuan, it is very unlikely that the demon species will exist for a while. It's possible... that he sacrificed the demon seed."
Elder Ai nodded slightly, holding the teacup in his hand, but he did not put it down, nor did he drink the tea.
The man continued: "Elder Ai, for our Demon Slayer Department, the most difficult thing is never to kill monsters, but the rebirth of monsters. This characteristic is much more difficult to deal with than monsters. Even if we kill monsters, The remaining demons will still return to southern Xinjiang to be reborn, which is really annoying. But if Gu Yuan really has the ability to sacrifice demons, then we can kill the demons once and for all, and we no longer have to worry about their comeback. !」
"Have you ever told anyone about this matter?" Elder Ai asked immediately.
"This matter is too serious to spread. If the demons find out, I'm afraid they will kill Gu Yuan at all costs." The man said in a deep voice.
He still understands the importance.
Elder Ai was relieved.
"Don't reveal this news to anyone yet." Elder Ai said, "I know what you are planning, but... I have to think about it. Li Siming must be the one who can sacrifice the demon species to Gu Yuan. You know, why do you think he didn’t report it?”
"This..." the man said tentatively, "I really can't guess what he's thinking."
Elder Ai sighed and said, "If we seize this point and cause heavy damage to the monster, the monster will definitely find out and eventually target Gu Yuan. What he is worried about is that Gu Yuan will die prematurely if he exposes this point prematurely."
The man suddenly realized.
"And... Gu Yuan is indeed special. I need to think about it, think about it..." Elder Ai sighed, "You should go back first."
"Yes, elder." The man stood up and walked out of the office.
After the others left, Elder Ai sighed, with a melancholy look on his face.
Because of the Bronze Sacred Tree, he didn't want any accidents to happen to Gu Yuan.
However, with the ability Gu Yuan possesses, he can also deal a fatal blow to the demons.
For a moment, he was also in trouble.
Even if Guanlong Mountain protects Gu Yuan as much as possible, there is no airtight wall in the world. Once you decide to let Gu Yuan take that step, you have to take all factors into consideration.
After thinking about it, he suddenly stood up.
"It seems that we still need to find someone to discuss it..."
