Chapter 551
Some gazes were friendly, some were hostile, but most of them were curious.
Gu Chen's expression did not change as he walked unhurriedly to the hall.
His handsome appearance and slender figure made many people's eyes light up.
In particular, his white hair and the nimble little monkey sitting on his shoulder made people feel even more special.
"This kid is obviously Gu Yuan's grandson. He looks so much like him in the past, haha!"
"He looks so young. Did he come all the way from the Heaven Burial Continent alone? It must not have been an easy journey."
Many clansmen discussed.
The journey was long, so the people present did not know what had happened on Penglai Island recently. The information they had received from the Immortal Sect disciples that someone was pretending to be a descendant of the Gu Clan.
When the clan heard that the young man pretending to be a descendant of the Gu Clan was called Gu Chen and that he had come from overseas, they immediately paid attention.
Great Elder Gu Yao immediately decided to send Lian Yue to investigate the matter. If he really was a fake, he would be killed on the spot. If he really was a member of the clan, he would be brought back to the clan for examination.
Although there was no examination, Gu Chen's appearance was quite similar to his grandfather's when he was young, so some elders immediately confirmed his identity.
Gu Chen listened to the discussions around him. Most people did not have any ill intentions towards him, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that his grandfather was right. Although he had left the clan because of some disputes, blood was thicker than water. Many years later, his grandson had returned to the clan and received the goodwill of the majority of people.
"Reporting to Clan Leader, Great Elder, I have brought Gu Chen."
Gu Lian Yue spoke to the two people sitting in the main seats in the hall.
Through her words, Gu Chen immediately understood who the two people in front of him were.
The white-browed, white-bearded, kind-looking one was Great Elder Gu Yao. The other person, who seemed to be middle-aged and had a dignified appearance, was the Gu Clan's current Clan Leader, Gu Xuanwu!
"Branch Clan Gu Yuan's grandson, Gu Tianming's son, Gu Chen, greets Clan Leader, Great Elder, and all the elders."
Gu Chen solemnly bowed to the elders present.
When Gu Xuanwu heard this, his gaze softened a little.
Even Gu Yao couldn't help but smile. His evaluation of this junior he was meeting for the first time instantly rose significantly.
This kid's EQ wasn't low.
"You've traveled a long way and must be extremely tired. We should let you rest, but according to the rules of my Gu Clan, we must first test your bloodline."
Gu Xuanwu said in an indifferent tone.
"I understand. May I know how to test it?" Gu Chen asked respectfully.
"The method is quite simple. You just need to display the Tyrannical Bone Divine Ability."
"This …"
Gu Chen's eyes revealed an awkward expression.
"What?" Everyone looked at him.
"I won't hide it from all the elders. The Tyrannical Firmament Bone in this junior's body has already been broken due to some reasons. It's difficult for me to use my abilities."
As soon as Gu Chen's words fell, everyone was shocked.
"The Tyrannical Firmament Bone is broken? How could this be? This kid's bearing is extraordinary. He doesn't look like he's crippled! "
"Tsk, I'm dying of laughter. This Gu Yuan's family is really trash! That Gu Yuan hasn't awakened the Tyrannical Bone in his twenties, and that Gu Tianming only awakened it in his middle age. This grandson is even more ridiculous. Even his Tyrannical Bone is broken! "
Gu Chen noticed that after he said that the Tyrannical Bone had been broken, some people in the crowd showed deep disdain. They didn't even hide their disdain for his bloodline.
This made him sullen in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface.
He had already set his position. He wouldn't easily let others see through his true thoughts.
"The Tyrannical Bone is broken. This isn't a small problem. Let the Old Man take a look."
Gu Yao stood up and walked in front of Gu Chen. He placed an old hand on Gu Chen's shoulder.
Gu Chen didn't struggle and let the elder examine him.
Gu Yao's divine sense entered Gu Chen's body. He quickly sensed that the golden Tyrannical Bone in front of his chest was full of cracks. His expression became very serious.
"What happened? The Tyrannical Bone is actually broken to this extent. And it seems like you only have half a year left to live."
Gu Yao asked with concern.
As soon as these words came out, many people looked at Gu Chen with sympathy. He was still so young, but he only had half a year left to live. It was really a pity!
Gu Chen didn't want to mention the war in the Kunlun Continent. The people of the Immortal Spirit Continent couldn't understand what happened there, so he answered ambiguously.
"Because of some accident, the Tyrannical Bone was broken. As for the problem of lifespan, I believe it can be solved when I break through."
Gu Chen's words sounded very weak to the people around him. Many people shook their heads.
The Heavenly Tyrannical Bone was the source of the Gu Clan's power. The Tyrannical Bone was broken. The damage was huge. Not to mention breaking through, it was already a blessing to not become a cripple.
Gu Yao wanted to continue asking about the details, but he realized that there were too many people and it wasn't the right time. So he stopped and turned around to look at the group of clan elders.
"Although Gu Chen's Tyrannical Bone is broken, the Tyrannical Blood still flows in his body. There's no doubt about his identity."
When the clan leader and the elders heard this, they all nodded. This way, they could be considered to have verified Gu Chen's identity.
After confirming that there was no problem with Gu Chen's identity, coupled with the fact that the Tyrannical Bone in his body was broken, many people in the clan became closer to him. Some of the female elders in the clan even felt pity for him.
He had been wandering around since he was young. When he finally returned to the clan, he was a sickly person with only a few days left to live.
No matter how they thought about it, they felt that this child had suffered too much.
"You've just returned to the clan. Do you have any requests? No need to be polite, just tell us directly. "
A female elder said. Her words immediately attracted the approval of many clan members.
"That's right, that's right. You have to take good care of this child. God knows how much he has suffered overseas."
"Wandering alone outside without the protection of my Gu Clan, he must have been bullied quite a bit. If anyone has bullied you, you can tell us. The clan will uphold justice for you! "
Many people spoke up. When Gu Lian Yue heard these words, her expression became strange.
Bullied?
God knows how much damage this brat has brought to the Penglai Deity Island. How could anyone bully him? It was obvious that he had bullied others …
She didn't say these words in her heart. At present, Gu Chen's Tyrannical Bone was broken and he didn't have much time left. Who in the clan would believe that he had turned the Penglai Deity Island upside down by himself?
When Gu Chen heard the female elder's words, his eyes showed gratitude. This was exactly what he wanted to hear.
At that moment, he didn't hold back and directly stated his main purpose of returning to the Gu Clan.
"Now that my Tyrannical Bone is broken, my only wish is to enter the ancestral land."
