"Oh, Master Huang, you are embarrassing me." Mo Han waved his hands repeatedly and said humbly, "It's just a few treatment methods. They are not worthy of the nobles' attention. I don't deserve the title of doctor. Just call me Mo Han."
Huang Ting's eyes were deep. He had some impression of Mo Han. Twenty years later, in order to prolong Han Li's life, he attacked Han Li and wanted to concoct a third-level [Human Medicine Gu]. Unfortunately, the son of destiny killed him directly.
It is probably the first pot of funds for Han Li's rise.
"The Human Medicine Gu is a third-level Gu, and as a life-extending Gu, it is often extremely rare. This person is only a second-level one, not even up to that level. This means he has clues to a fourth- or fifth-level inheritance."
Huang Ting pondered and looked up and down at the slightly younger Mo Han, wondering if this inheritance had been taken away. If not, then the treasure would belong to someone with virtue.
If the other party gets it, we'll see how the situation plays out. If he still tries to use the child to make poison to prolong life, I won't have any psychological burden in killing him.
On the surface, Huang Ting said modestly: "I don't deserve it. I'll just call you Master Mo."
He flirted with Mo Han for a while, without revealing his purpose, and then returned to the family residence, just keeping an eye on Mo Han.
At this moment, Mo Han looked at Huang Ting's departing back, frowning slightly, feeling uneasy as he thought that this Huang family member had inexplicably come to Hanjia Village. Could it be that he had also discovered the information of this inheritance?
Then he became extremely jealous. It took less than a year for Huang Ting to reach the peak after he became enlightened. He had wasted most of his life and still couldn't catch up. Was it just because Huang Ting was a member of the family?
"One day, I will also be proud!"
Mo Han's heart was burning with passion. Although he was old, his fighting spirit remained unchanged.
On the other side, Huang Ting walked briskly. He not only determined the timeline, but also discovered a clue to inheritance. It would be very difficult to survive in this world without the inheritance of predecessors.
There is a very unique atmosphere in the Gu world. Regardless of whether they are good or evil, if they are about to fall, they will definitely arrange for inheritance before dying and pass on their ideals to the next generation.
Therefore, similar inheritances emerge one after another, and there are always news of lucky people who achieve success overnight.
At the starting point of the original story, Qingmao Mountain has a fifth-level inheritance, and Shajing Oasis probably has one too.
Huang Ting was somewhat looking forward to it and planned to gather people to explore after the competition was over.
He passed through more than a dozen villages and saw the area around Wen Lake from afar. There were rows of exquisite and tall courtyards and bustling streets. It was the Huang family's base camp, and basically only family members lived there.
Huang Ting's parents also have a three-courtyard house here, divided into front, middle and back courtyards. There is an artificial lake connected to Wen Lake, and it is managed by more than a dozen servants.
After his parents passed away, Huang Ting naturally inherited the house. Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth inevitably curled up. It was difficult to find a house in his previous life, but it was so easy to live in a mansion in this life.
Huang Ting arrived at his home. Two sturdy men stood before the red wooden door. They were slightly startled when they saw him, and immediately greeted him respectfully: "Young Master, you are back."
Then they hurriedly opened the door, and the maids in the courtyard heard the news and rushed over.
One of the beautiful women with graceful features walked over, followed by several maids. She said gently, "Brother Ting, this trip must have been hard. You've become stronger and more mature. It really is a test of strength."
"Aunt Liu, there are troubles at home."
Huang Ting took a deep breath. With the original owner's memory, all of this was extremely familiar to him. The beautiful woman in front of him was his mother's personal maid, who was quite trusted and they were like sisters. Now she was the housekeeper of the house, saving him a lot of effort.
"It's not a big deal." Aunt Liu sighed softly, "It's not easy for you, you're the head of the family at such a young age."
Then she ordered the maids, "Go prepare some hot water and food for the young master."
Aunt Liu smiled at Huang Ting again and said, "You just came back and you must be exhausted. I won't disturb you. Have a good rest."
Huang Ting felt quite comfortable. Aunt Liu was indeed very considerate.
He walked alone in the mansion, looking at the white mist rising from the lake in the yard. He was used to the heat waves. Among the three major lakes in Shajing, Wen Lake was as hot as a hot spring all year round.
"In a water-scarce desert, an artificial lake is a bit of a luxury."
Huang Ting shook his head, not caring about these external enjoyments, and went to the quiet room, wanting to try to see if he could break through the second level before the newcomer competition.
The Huang family attaches great importance to the competition. The top 30 people will each receive 500 yuan stones, the top 10 will be even more amazing, 1,000 yuan stones, and the top 3 will receive 1,000 yuan stones + an extra family second-level poisonous insect.
He was determined to win the Dou Gu and make plans for the resources for the second transformation.
At the same time, in the center of Wen Lake, on an island in the lake, there are many pavilions, shrouded in mist, with a bit of fairy-like feeling, and a graceful figure stands proudly on the pavilion.
She was a beautiful girl with delicate features and heroic spirit. She was one of the three top-level talents in the Huang family this year, Huang Chuyao.
"Yao'er." An old man with a kind face and a solemn aura approached and asked his granddaughter gently, "Are you confident in the competition?"
"Yeah." Huang Chuyao raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said proudly: "Even those two people are not my opponents. I am a second-level transformation."
"Haha...don't be careless. There are always people better than you."
The Great Elder admonished him and took out a Gu worm and handed it to Huang Chuyao, saying, "Take this second-level [Fireball Gu]. It's enough to use as a trump card."
Huang Chuyao frowned, extremely unhappy. In her opinion, this seemed like cheating, but she couldn't resist her grandfather's constant demands.
In the center of the largest of the three lakes, Yan Lake, stands a solid city, which is also the seat of the head of the family and stores the Huang family's richest heritage.
In the council hall, Huang Ming, the current patriarch of the Huang family, sat upright. He was tall, with red eyebrows and a domineering temperament. Looking around, he saw that his five children were all there, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Huang Xia was among them. She quietly reported the situation of the caravan and mentioned Huang Ting's performance. It was impressive that a first-level Gu Master killed the King of Beasts.
Huang Mingsheng showed some interest. "Yes, he has outstanding fighting talent. The clan has been producing many outstanding talents in recent years. This is a cause for celebration."
Regarding this comment, the eldest son Huang Yi stood by and watched, as if it had nothing to do with him. The eldest daughter Huang Qin said with interest: "Good luck, sister, you have regained another capable person."
The second son, Huang Ke, felt a little jealous and said indifferently, "It's just luck. In a head-on battle, a rank 1 Gu Master would never be able to defeat the Beast King."
Huang Xia smiled faintly and did not debate. Finally, her youngest son Huang Xin remained silent.
The Huang family head remained silent, then suddenly asked his youngest son, "Xin'er, the competition is about to begin. There are so many talented people in our family. Are you sure you can take first place?"
Hearing this, Huang Xin was caught off guard, recalling his mother's words, "You were born too late, and all the resources have already been taken by your older brothers and sisters. If you want to seize the position of head of the family, you have to bide your time and wait for the fishermen to reap the benefits."
He carefully considered his words, then bowed and said, "I will not bring disgrace upon my father's name."
On the last island in the center of the turbid lake, Huang Feng, the youngest fifth-rank elder of the Huang family, lives. He stands on the shore of the muddy lake. Although he is middle-aged, his facial features are still handsome and he is graceful. He bows his head to a handsome young man behind him.
"My disciple, the Huang family is known for its Fire and Earth Paths, but I, your master, cultivate the Wind Path, and am somewhat marginalized by the elders. I will now bestow upon you a Level 2 Water Arrow Gu, specifically designed to counter Earth and Fire. I hope you will be able to defeat powerful enemies and spread my prestige."
The handsome young man Huang Xi said calmly, "I know Master's philosophy. Using Gu doesn't have to be confined to a certain school. Adapting to circumstances is the best way. I will prove Master's philosophy."
