Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang

Tie Xinlan exclaimed, "Senior...why did you come to find me?"

The ghost child laughed and said, "I know you have many questions, but don't worry, you'll soon understand what's going on."

The members of the Murong family exchanged glances, still pondering how to entertain this strange guest. The Murong family never wanted to be impolite in front of guests.

Ghost Child was an old man who had lived for a long time, so he naturally understood what the Murong family meant. He laughed and said, "You don't need to offer me drinks. I never like to drink because I'm too small. I can never outdrink others."

Murong Ba smiled and said, "In that case, what are your preferences, senior? We'll see if we can satisfy you as much as possible."

Just then, another small boat suddenly appeared on the river, drifting towards their cabin like a floating cloud.

More than ten lights were lit on the boat. Under the lights, seven or eight people were sitting on it, men and women, all with gray hair. Some of them were even hunched over, looking like they had lost their teeth.

Before the small boat even approached the Murong family's cabin, the old men had somehow appeared on the bow.

Upon closer inspection, these elderly people looked more than ten times older than before; no one could imagine how they had lived to such an advanced age.

"Check-in!"

"Signing in for Mi Shiba successfully, gaining five years of internal energy."

"Signed in as Yu Ziya successfully, gained five years of internal energy."

"Successfully checked in with Han Dizi and gained five years of internal energy."

"Signing in as Nan Guosheng successfully grants five years of internal energy."

"Sign-in successfully, gained five years of internal energy."

"Signing in with Lady Xiao successfully, you have gained five years of internal energy."

Jiang Fengyue thought to herself, with so many reclusive masters gathered here, Black Spider's wedding must be quite a lively affair.

Mi Shiba smiled and asked the ghost child, "Have you found the person you're looking for?"

The Ghost Child smiled, pointed at Tie Xinlan, and said, "Found her, it's her."

Tie Xinlan was even more confused at this moment. She could also see that these old men in front of her were all highly skilled masters. Why would they come looking for a young woman like her?

The ghost child reached out and nudged Mi Shiba, saying, "Where's the youngest? Didn't he come with you?"

Mi Shiba rolled his eyes and said, "If he didn't come with us, who else could he come with?"

Upon hearing this, the demon boy became angry and asked, "So where is he?"

Mi Shiba pouted and said, "Where is he? Why don't you go ask him?"

The ghost child retorted irritably, "If I knew where he was, why would I be asking?"

Mi Shiba said, "I don't know. You're asking me, but I don't know either."

Those present wanted to laugh when they saw the two old men bickering, but dared not laugh out loud. They could only think to themselves that these old people were becoming more and more innocent as they lived, without any worries, far from the strife of the world, and living a relaxed and happy life every day.

Nan Guosheng then stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Lao Yao originally came with us. He was fine on the boat, but suddenly he complained that coming by boat was too slow, so he jumped ashore and insisted on coming by himself."

Han Dizi sighed, "This is what they call 'haste makes waste'."

The ghost child said, "His fiery temper will probably never change until he dies."

Lady Xiao interjected with a laugh, "Even if it's a longer journey, he should have arrived long ago. I'm afraid he'll relapse into his old temper and get into a fight with someone on the way."

Nan Guosheng said, "If he were to start a fight with someone else, I'm afraid it would take three days and three nights to finish."

Everyone present was curious about who they were waiting for.

The more Xuanyuan Sanguang listened to their description, the more familiar it seemed. Suddenly, he said, "Is this person you're talking about someone who never stops fighting once he gets into a fight with someone?"

The Ghost Child laughed and said, "Exactly. He will never stop until he beats someone to their knees and begs for mercy."

Xuanyuan Sanguang was startled and exclaimed, "Could it be him...?"

Just then, a man on the shore shouted, "You gambler, do you even remember your grandpa?"

Xuanyuan Sanguang laughed loudly, "As expected, it's that bastard."

Upon hearing that familiar roar, Tie Xinlan's heart trembled, and her whole body shook, whether from she was too surprised or too happy.

Xuanyuan Sanguang walked to the bow of the ship and shouted, "Old madman, so you're still alive!"

The man on the shore laughed loudly, "You're not dead yet, how could I bear to die?"

Amidst laughter, the man jumped onto the bow of the boat, nearly tilting the massive vessel under his weight, demonstrating his considerable size.

But to say that his lightness skill is not good would be to underestimate him. When he leaped from the shore to the bow of the boat, he covered at least four or five zhang (approximately 10-15 meters).

The people in the cabin couldn't help but look at this person, and sure enough, he was another strange man. He wasn't very tall, only six or seven feet, but if you measured him horizontally, he was at least five or six feet tall.

He looked square and boxy, like a big rock.

His head was unusually large; if cut off, it would weigh at least thirty or forty pounds. His hair was a mess, intertwined with his beard, making it impossible to distinguish which parts were his hair, let alone see his nose or mouth.

"Check-in!"

"Sign-in successfully in Iron Battle, gain five years of internal energy."

So this was "Mad Lion" Iron Warrior. Jiang Fengyue already knew he was not good-looking, but upon seeing him, she realized that he really was too unkempt.

When Tie Xinlan saw this strange man, she was not afraid at all; instead, tears welled up in her eyes, and she cried out in a trembling voice, "Father..."

Tie Zhan walked up to Tie Xinlan, patted her head, and laughed loudly, "Good daughter, don't cry. Your father isn't dead yet, you should be happy."

Hua Wuque, standing beside Tie Xinlan, could never have imagined that Tie Zhan, who could give birth to a daughter like Tie Xinlan, would be in such a state.

Seeing the father and daughter reunited, the people in the cabin couldn't help but feel happy for them, disregarding the oppressive aura of those reclusive masters.

Tie Zhan spotted the two men sitting on either side of Tie Xinlan and shouted, "Which one of you is Hua Wuque? Which one is Jiang Xiaoyu?"

Little Fish asked in surprise, "I am Jiang Xiaoyu, what can I do for you, senior?"

Tie Zhan pointed at Hua Wuque and said, "Then you must be Hua Wuque of the Yihua Palace."

Hua Wufen nodded.

Tie Zhan patted Tie Xinlan's head and asked with a smile, "My dear daughter, which of the two is your ideal husband? I will take him away today."

Upon hearing her father's question, Tie Xinlan was speechless for a moment, and said in a trembling voice, "Father, I..."

How could she possibly make that choice? And how could she possibly explain the reasons behind it in front of so many people?

Tie Zhan carefully examined Hua Wuque and Xiaoyuer, and felt that Xiaoyuer was more to his liking. He was about to say something to Xiaoyuer.

Little Fish suddenly said, "Senior, don't look at me. I have absolutely no relation to her."

Hearing Xiaoyuer say that, Tie Zhan pointed at Hua Wuque and shouted, "Then you're the one! Are you willing to come with us?"

Hua Wuque murmured, "I...I can't either..."
