474 The Most Powerful Little Fatties! (2)
There was a person sitting in the pavilion. It was a woman. Due to the curtain, the two of them could not see clearly. They could only vaguely see Gu Master Meng bow respectfully to the other party. Then, the other party raised her hand and pointed at the stone bench opposite. Gu Master Meng sat down.
The two of them raised their hearing to the limit and listened to their conversation.
“My daughter is naughty. I’ve wronged Lord Meng,” the woman said.
Jiang Hai and Qing Yan exchanged nces. Almost at the same time, two words shed across their minds—The Queen.
Great Gu Master Meng said, “It’s my honor to serve the princess.”
The Queen said pleasantly, “That child has been spoiled by me and the Prince Consort. She’s always up to no good. You don’t have to take her words to heart. I’ll discipline herter and let her admit her mistake to Lord Meng.”
As expected of someone who had been in power for many years. Her tone and actions were very gentle, but there was a noble and dignified aura that could not be provoked.
Great Gu Master Meng said, “Children’s words carry no harm. Your Highness, you tter me.”
Child’s words carried no harm? Jiang Hai and Qing Yan rolled their eyes. She was only a year or two younger than Ah Wan. Ah Wan was much more sensible than her!
Their conversation continued.
The Queen said, “I called you herete at night actually because I need to discuss the snow toad with you. As you know, the holy artifact has been missing for a long time. Back then, when I heard that it hadnded in the Central ins, I sent someone to the Central ins to search, but we found nothing. I’m worried that the holy artifact might have encountered misfortune long ago. If I can obtain the snow toad, it can be considered a form ofpensation. I understand that your strength has long been that of the Gu Elder. You’re just missing that jade token.”
These words were true. Great Gu Master Meng had long obtained the strength of Gu Elder. However, Gu Elder also had levels. The lowest was Level One, and the highest was Level Nine. Every test of Gu Elder required a three-month interval.
Great Gu Master Meng wanted to be a fatty in one go, so he was not in a hurry to test. But since the Queen had spoken, he did not continue to wait. With his current strength, he was confident that he could already pass the highest level in history.
Great Gu Master Meng said, “I’ll go to the Gu Hall to collect the jade token tomorrow.”
The Queen smiled and picked up a ss of wine. “Congrattions to Elder Meng in advance.”
The Gu Hall was located under the Gu Mountain. There was only one entrance here, and there were two golden-masked sacrificial soldiers guarding the entrance. Therefore, Jiang Hai and Qing Yan, who originally nned to continue keeping an eye on Gu Master Meng, could only give up and return to the Helian Manor to wait for news.
Great Gu Master Meng entered Gu Mountain under the lead of a specialized person. There were only three types of people in Gu Mountain: Gu Master, Gu Lady, and sacrificial soldiers.
Of course, the Gu Masters mentioned here covered the Great Gu Masters and Gu Elder. However, the ordinary Great Gu Masters who came for the test could not be seen at all. The Gu Elders were all sitting in an empty room. In front of them was crystal clear ss. This ss had its own profundities. It could not be seen from the outside, but one could clearly see from the inside.
The five Gu Elders sat on chairs and stared fixedly at the passageway in front of ss. These passageways looked ordinary, but in fact, there were poisonous Gu everywhere. The deeper they went, the more poisonous Gu there were and the stronger they were. The Great Gu Masters who entered needed to use skilled Gu techniques to control them so that they would not be attacked.
Gu Lady, who led the way, introduced the rules of the test to Great Gu Master Meng. After entering the passageway, every ten feet was a level. Up until now, they had all walked to ny feet. If they really couldn’t withstand it halfway, there was nothing they could do. They had to bear their own life and death.
Those who coulde here were all outstanding people among the Great Gu Masters. Every one of them was extremely rare, so it was not worth it to die on the way to the test. Therefore, Gu Lady advised Great Gu Master Meng to act within his capabilities.
Great Gu Master Meng was confident in his Gu technique. Hundreds of years ago, Nanzhao’s Gu technique was once popr, and there were many eighth or ninth-stage Gu Elders. However, as the Gu technique split up and was lost, no one could walk past sixty feet now. The most powerful Sixty-feet Gu Elder in this dynasty was already old and was consecrated to the Gu Hall to retire. However, Great Gu Master Meng was extremely sure that he could walk past seventy feet.
In fact, he had indeed done it.
When he entered the passageway without any pressure, the few Gu Elders sitting behind the ss and observing revealed excited and expectant expressions. After that, he did not disappoint them.
What was worth mentioning was that a few days ago, Gu Mountain had encountered an earthquake. The passageway behind was blocked, and they were still thinking of ways to dig it. Therefore, the current passageway was only seventy feet long.
Of course, this was also the limit of Great Gu Master Meng. He could not move further in. His Gu technique was no longer enough to control stronger Gu worms.
