Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 395 - 394: Strange Occurrences in the Cang Family
The location of the Cang Mansion is in an area surrounded by mountains and water, with a beautiful environment and abundant spiritual Qi, making it an excellent place for cultivation.
Many buildings are constructed leaning against the mountains and water, possessing a unique charm, yet arranged orderly, with a certain aesthetic appeal.
Gu Yuan rode his escape light from a distance. Since he intentionally did not conceal his figure, his escape light quickly caught the attention of some people.
Gu Yuan’s escape light was bright and pure, with a sharp and penetrating aura, a combination of his Water Escape Divine Techniques and Sword Escape Divine Techniques.
Light as a feather, swift, yet elusive.
Any discerning person could tell at a glance that the cultivator in the escape light is undoubtedly a rare righteous master. Otherwise, if the cultivation is not pure, the escape light would not be pure either.
Not long after, when Gu Yuan landed his escape light not far from the main gate of the Cang Mansion, he was greeted by someone.
This person had a square face, was tall and robust, dressed in a purple brocade robe, exuding a deterrent force, giving off a sense of authority without being angry.
"I am Cang Yuncheng. May I know who you are, and if there is any important matter for your visit to our Cang Mansion?"
Cang Yuncheng cupped his hands towards Gu Yuan, asking in confusion.
"So it’s Fellow Daoist Cang."
Gu Yuan nodded lightly, returned the courtesy, and said calmly, "I am Gu Yuan, a disciple of Medicine King Mountain. I have come to undertake a task specifically to resolve the matters of your Cang Mansion." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Gu Yuan?
Upon hearing this name, Cang Yuncheng’s gaze condensed, his eyelids twitched, clearly aware of Gu Yuan’s identity. He became more solemn, hurriedly cupping his hands, smiling, and said, "So it’s Fellow Daoist Gu, truly an oversight. Fellow Daoist Gu, please follow me."
As he said this, the intimidating aura on him suddenly retracted, but the smile on his face became even brighter, turning to lead Gu Yuan ahead.
"Thank you."
Gu Yuan nodded slightly, then followed closely behind.
This scene almost made the eyes of some people nearby pop out of their heads.
Goodness!
Cang Yuncheng, the esteemed master of the second branch of the Cang Mansion, in terms of both power and status, there are perhaps only a few in the entire Cang Mansion who could match him.
Moreover, this master of the second branch is known for being stern and fair, always feared by the children of the Cang Mansion.
Among the descendants and servants of the Cang Mansion, he was even known as the "Cold-Faced God."
Yet, when have they ever seen this Cold-Faced God greet someone so courteously with a smiling face?
They had simply never seen such a thing!
So, who exactly is that young man?!
Some disciples and servants of the Cang Mansion began to whisper among themselves.
Upon reaching the main gate of the Cang Mansion, a group of people was already waiting there.
Among these people, some were old, some young, some had a calm demeanor, others had a breezy and elegant aura, some were handsome, and some were beautiful.
Gu Yuan was somewhat surprised, but outwardly he remained composed.
When he approached, an elder with graying hair among the group raised his hands, cupped them in salute, and said, "I am Cang Yingnan, and I warmly welcome Little Friend Gu."
Following the elder’s salute, others followed suit, saluting and saying, "We welcome Fellow Daoist Gu (Senior Gu)!"
Gu Yuan’s expression became solemn, he adjusted his robe and returned the salute: "Elder Cang, you are too polite. Everyone, you are being too kind!"
The elder at the head, Cang Yingnan, is the patriarch of the Cang family. His status allows him direct dialogue with the elders and even the sect leader of Medicine King Mountain. In terms of identity and status, Gu Yuan absolutely should not be neglectful.
Furthermore, the fact that he personally came to welcome Gu Yuan gave him tremendous face. With such courtesy from the other party, naturally, Gu Yuan would not maintain a cold demeanor.
"Hehe..."
Cang Yingnan’s stature was not particularly large, even appearing somewhat aged, with his slightly hunched back and graying hair, looking very much like an old man nearing the end of his life.
However, the strong aura emanating from him was not to be underestimated.
This was also the main reason for him holding the position of the patriarch of the Cang family.
Cang Yingnan smiled and said, "Little Friend Gu, you’re too kind. Today, that you can come to our Cang Mansion truly graces us with your presence!"
"Come, Little Friend, please enter!"
As he spoke, he stepped aside, gesturing for Gu Yuan to enter the mansion.
Gu Yuan exchanged a few polite words and then stepped forward, entering the Cang Mansion.
At this time, many people were secretly observing Gu Yuan,
Among these people, some had heard of Gu Yuan’s reputation and were secretly shocked, adding a few touches of fear and uncertainty in their gazes.
Some were quite puzzled, wondering about the identity of this young man, capable of the patriarch personally bringing people to welcome him?
Gu Yuan was already used to these kinds of looks, without feeling the slightest discomfort, he leisurely stepped into the Cang Mansion.
The layout of the Cang Mansion was quite exquisite and elegant, invisibly exuding a sense of luxury.
And behind him, many members of the Cang family had already dispersed.
Upon reaching the hall, everyone took their seats in succession, with the table set for a feast, the aroma delightful.
At this moment, apart from Gu Yuan, there were only four others accompanying him.
The patriarch Cang Yingnan was one of them, another was a young cultivator named Cang Yunfei, who was handsome with a tall and staunch figure. Gu Yuan noticed that his cultivation had just recently broken through to the Celestial Human Realm, marking him as a rare cultivation genius.
The other two were Cang Yuncheng from earlier and an extraordinarily beautiful young woman named Cang Yuejiao, whose cultivation was not inferior to Cang Yunfei’s, even a bit stronger.
With Cang Yingnan and Cang Yuncheng being exceptions, the young Cang Yunfei and the young woman Cang Yuejiao were not very old, perhaps the former was six or seven years older than Gu Yuan, but the latter was about the same age as Gu Yuan.
Such cultivation, even in Medicine King Mountain, was rarely seen, an extraordinary genius with the potential to become a true disciple if the cultivation went well.
Unexpectedly, the Cang Mansion harbored such talents, truly deserving of being a thousand-year noble family!
Under the hospitable and amiable invitation of Cang Yingnan and Cang Yuncheng, everyone engaged in social drinking and conversation, which was quite harmonious and lively.
After three rounds of drinks, Cang Yingnan put down his cup, letting out a long sigh:
"Alas..."
So the plot thickens... Gu Yuan thought to himself, cooperating openly by putting down his cup, and said:
"Why does Elder Cang sigh, could it be due to the incident that happened in your mansion?"
Cang Yingnan glanced at Gu Yuan and said, "Indeed, to be honest, Little Friend, this matter has persisted for nearly three months. Many of our Cang family’s disciples and clansmen have died due to this incident. Even one of our Golden Core elders who went to investigate got severely injured. This matter is far from simple and grave indeed!"
"Is that so?"
Gu Yuan, not being a child, did not utter anything like, "As long as I’m here, I’ll definitely help you solve this matter."
He frowned at the news, saying, "I implore Elder Cang to thoroughly explain the matter to the junior, so I can understand it better."
"This matter has been handled by Yuncheng, let him tell Little Friend Gu about it."
Cang Yingnan glanced at Cang Yuncheng beside him and said softly.
