Gu Daoist Master

Chapter 153: Really aged

Translator: Skyfarrow Editor: Skyfarrow

“He has truly advanced to Rank three!”

“This Rank three aura is genuine, and there is the white silver primeval essence; there is no mistake.”

The atmosphere in the clan hall was solemn.

The clan head Gu Yue Bo was sitting on the highest seat, with many elders seated in rows by his left and right.

Whispers could be heard here and there, and dozen of people’s attentions were more or less gathered on a young man who was standing upright in the center of the hall with his head held high.

The young man was Fang Yuan.

“To think this Fang Yuan advanced to Rank three.”

“If I hadn’t personally seen it, I would never have believed it…..”

“Doesn’t he only have C grade aptitude? How could he advance so suddenly?”

“Actually, it can’t be said to be sudden. Did you forget that he obtained two red steel Relic Gu?”

“Right, it was two whole Relic Gu, they can completely raise his cultivation steeply. Just thinking back when I cultivated, sigh…..”

The group of elders were both amazed and puzzled; this matter had caught them completely unprepared.

“This Fang Yuan was able to advance to Rank three! He is merely of C grade aptitude, but could actually have such accomplishments in this short time. This is really a surprise.” Gu Yue Mo Chen who was seated on the frontmost seat in the left row exclaimed inwardly.He thought of two-three years ago, when Fang Yuan was still in the academy, and killed a servant of his family.He had already forgotten the name of this servant. But the minced corpse Fang Yuan sent over had left a profound impression on him.

From that day, he saw Fang Yuan in new light, but didn’t expect much from him due to his aptitude.

Now, this young man actually had such accomplishments!

According to the clan system, all Gu Masters who advanced to Rank three were new elders.

A new elder was bound to have a huge impact on the old political structure.

“If I had recruited him before, I would be able to use this impact and gain political dominance. Sigh, it really is a pity…..” Thinking of this, Gu Yue Mo Chen couldn’t help but glance in front of him.

His old rival Gu Yue Chi Lian was seated on the frontmost seat in the right row. Right now he had a gloomy expression and obscure light flashed in his eyes.

“This Fang Yuan definitely has secrets on him. Although he had the help from the two red steel Relic Gu, he couldn’t have had advanced to Rank three so fast, this is something even Qing Shu couldn’t accomplish,” Gu Yue Bo was also pondering.

He unavoidably thought of his adopted son Qing Shu, and sighed.
