Taking care of the family is not the father's responsibility alone. It has been his father who has been supporting us for so many years. He has done enough!

Gu Cheng also stepped forward, held Gu Yuan's other hand, and asked him to take the main seat in the study.

Gu Muyue felt sour in her heart when she saw her grandfather completely losing his fighting spirit and his eyes dull.

From the first moment I saw my grandpa, his image in my mind has always been that of a man who would rather die than surrender, and who could continue to move forward even when faced with setbacks.

Throughout his life, Gu Yuan first became a general with outstanding achievements, and later became the head of the Gu family, one of the five aristocratic families. He never lowered his head in front of outsiders!

Gu Muyue knew that her grandfather had a sense of pride in his heart. However, this pride was broken by the cruel reality today.

"Father, it's okay. We still have a chance. I can still find more powerful cultivation elixirs!" Seeing his high-spirited father in his memory turn into this decadent look, Gu Cheng felt very uncomfortable. It seemed like a rope was tightly tied around his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"It's useless, I have no chance." Gu Yuan was silent for a while, and finally chose to say the fact helplessly.

"No chance?" Gu Cheng frowned and looked at Gu Yuan, who had his head lowered, in confusion, "Why is there no chance?"

"It's just a Mirror-Breaking Pill. There are many more powerful things in the world than the Mirror-Breaking Pill. I can definitely find them all one by one!"

Gu Cheng clenched his fists and looked at his father stubbornly, his eyes flashing with a fire that refused to admit defeat.

Gu Yuan knew the temperament of his youngest son, so he sighed deeply and explained: "Xiao Cheng, this is my destiny. Even the most powerful baby is of no use to me now. Don’t waste your efforts in vain, let this be the case.”

Gu Cheng immediately understood the meaning of Gu Yuan's words, but he still didn't want to give up. As a son, he knew his father very well.

After so many years, although my father's cultivation has remained at the same level, he still maintains his previous habits. He squeezes out his free time to practice every day, and never misses a day!

This is not only because of the Gu family, but more importantly because of his father's own love for cultivation. He enjoys the feeling of having strength in his own hands.

He wants to protect his family. This is his lifelong mission, and he has been working hard for this throughout his life!

If this were not the case, my father would not have worked his way up from the bottom step by step until he reached his current position!

Gu Cheng's tears had begun to well up in his eyes, and they could easily fall down with just a blink of an eye. He also began to choke when he spoke, "How can this be called a waste of effort? I can do it."

"Xiao Cheng!" Gu Yuan suddenly emphasized his tone and interrupted what Gu Cheng had not finished.

He knew what his son was thinking, but he was no longer willing to drag his son down anymore.

Gu Cheng traveled to various countries, and the things he needed to complete were already very heavy. He couldn't put another huge boulder on Gu Cheng's back.

He is very clear about his own cultivation. He can only stop here in his life. Any spiritual treasures from heaven and earth are of no use to him. Instead of spending a lot of manpower and material resources running around, it is better to dedicate his last life to the Gu family. A trace of strength!

He had been doing ideological work for himself just now, and now he can reluctantly accept this fact.

Gu Yuan slowly raised his head, his eyes passed over the red-eyed Gu Cheng, and finally settled on Gu Muyue, who had been silent. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised into a faint smile.

Although he has fallen, the Gu family is not completely hopeless!

And what he has to do now is to try his best to make this hope grow, and don't let her be discovered and strangled in the cradle by the bad guys!

Recalling the strength that his granddaughter showed in front of him before, although her cultivation level is not very high, her talent is even better than that of her eldest son Gu Yan!

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan immediately cheered up, the look of defeat on his face disappeared, and he became high-spirited again.

His eyes burst into flames, and his eyes were full of determination. Even if it costs me my life, I will never allow anyone to hurt my granddaughter!

Gu Cheng witnessed a series of changes in his father's mood from the sidelines. Before he could figure out why, his father suddenly patted his niece on the shoulder and said sincerely:

"Yue'er! Grandpa is no longer alive. From now on, the Gu family will really be completely left to you!"

Gu Cheng: No! I'm still here! How could a child with no cultivation be allowed to take on these difficult matters for the Gu family!

Gu Muyue understood what grandpa meant and said firmly: "Grandpa, I can do it!"

Gu Cheng stood there stupidly, watching the interaction between his father and his niece, unable to say a word.

Finally waiting for an opening, Gu Cheng quickly raised his hand to try to stop Gu Yuan's outrageous idea, "Father! Yue'er is still so young, how can you let Yue'er deal with this mess in the Gu family!"

It's not that Gu Cheng is harsh in speaking, but that the Gu family today can indeed be called a mess.

The strongest fighting power of the Gu family has come to a standstill, and the Gu family is surrounded by enemies from all sides. There is a royal family suppressing them, and there are various families around and even in the dark who are eyeing them. If they are not careful, the Gu family will fall into a situation that is beyond redemption. !

Seeing the anxious look on Gu Cheng's face, Gu Yuan finally remembered what he had forgotten.

From the beginning, he was so preoccupied with keeping Yue'er's matter a secret that he completely forgot to give his youngest son a heads up.

When Gu Cheng just came home, he was really debating whether to tell him the truth. After all, if one less person knew the truth, Yue'er's situation would be safer. But he thought about it carefully and decided that he should still bring Yue'er to prison. Tell Gu Cheng about practicing.

After all, as the head of the Gu family, I can't be by Yue'er's side all the time. Now that Gu Cheng is back, if he knows the truth of the matter, it will be easier for Yue'er to act.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan stopped writing and told Gu Cheng everything that Gu Mu Yue could practice.

After hearing the whole story, Gu Cheng froze on the spot, his neck seemed to be rusty, and he turned his head to Gu Muyue one by one, his eyes dull.

"Yue'er, can you practice?!" He murmured, with deep uncertainty in his tone.

He seriously doubted that he was dreaming.

Gu Muyue nodded and said nothing nonsense. She simply controlled her spiritual power to condense a small flame at her fingertips and placed it in front of Gu Cheng.

"Hiss—!" Gu Cheng took a breath of cold air, and his state was exactly the same as Gu Yuan's when he saw the small flame in front of him.

Gu Muyue had a smile in her eyes. They were indeed father and son. They were indeed very similar.

Gu Yuan looked at his son's loss of composure and smiled disdainfully, "Come on! You're just practicing at the Yue'er Society. Look at how ignorant you are!"

Gu Cheng also ignored his father's ridicule and stared straight at Gu Muyue's fingertips, as if he had seen something extraordinary.
