At this moment, by a meticulously arranged pond in the backyard of the Gu Family Mansion:
The current Family Head, Gu Lie, stands with his hands behind his back.
He appears more composed than he did a few months ago, with the majesty of a family head in his brow, yet deep down in his eyes, there is a slight, barely noticeable fatigue.
Beside him stands an energetic elder, the newly appointed Great Elder, someone Gu Lie has carefully selected, absolutely loyal and reliable.
Watching the Spiritual Carp leisurely swimming in the pond, Gu Lie gently sighed, with a tone of emotion.
"Thinking of a few months ago, our Gu family was merely a struggling clan in Wuyun City, beset by internal and external troubles. Who could have imagined that in such a short time, we could have the situation we have today."
The newly appointed Great Elder respectfully echoed.
