Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 516: You dare to impersonate my Taoist Ancestor? To hell with you!
Gu Feng noticed that there were at least twenty Core Formation Stage cultivators from the Lin Family watching his every move.
He guessed these individuals were spies from other major families.
With a simple wave of his hand, Gu Feng set up a barrier around the place where Lin Qi was, making it impossible for those cultivators to see what he was doing or overhear any conversations inside the house.
Afterwards, Gu Feng appeared inside the room.
Lin Qi’s first reaction upon seeing a stranger suddenly appear in his home was fright.
Gu Feng said, "Don’t be afraid, I am your ancestor."
Lin Qi, of course, knew that there were people from other families supervising him and also knew that these people liked to fish, using him as bait in hopes of luring out the Gu Family’s powers from the Upper Realm.
Therefore, upon hearing Gu Feng claim to be a member of his family, Lin Qi chose not to believe him.
His emotions quickly recovered, and he turned back to continue refining his pills.
He wasn’t worried that this mysterious person behind him would kill him in a fit of rage.
As the only direct descendant of the Gu Family who could still contact the Upper Realm, despite Lin Qi being only at the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, all the major families protected him in the shadows.
He actually wouldn’t mind being killed and putting an end to it all, as carrying the title of a Taoist Ancestor’s descendant and still ending up in such a state was shameful enough.
Even if he wanted to die, he guessed that the people from the other families wouldn’t just let him have his way.
Lin Qi had encountered people pretending to be his ancestral forebears like Gu Feng before.
Now accustomed to it, he casually asked, "Which ancestor are you supposed to be?"
Gu Feng replied, "Gu Feng."
"I’ll be damned!" Lin Qi immediately became enraged, grabbing his flying sword to strike.
Who did this person think he was, daring to impersonate the Taoist Ancestor of his Gu Family?
Lin Qi couldn’t tolerate that.
This was about family honor!
It wasn’t just the people of the Gu Family but also those cultivators outside who had to look up and worship the figure known as the Taoist Ancestor.
Gu Feng feared accidentally obliterating this youngster, so he elevated his own body through Dimension Ascension, rendering himself invisible to Lin Qi’s sword strikes.
Like an intangible object, Lin Qi felt each of his sword thrusts pass through Gu Feng’s body as if piercing thin air, making him feel as though he was slashing through an image.
Seeing him stop his fruitless assault, bewildered, Gu Feng sat down on the sofa and asked, "Tired of fighting? Ready to talk properly?"
Lin Qi eyed him warily, "What do you want to do? Kill me? Go ahead, be my guest. But you’d better think about the pressure from public opinion after you kill the direct descendant of the Taoist Ancestor!"
Gu Feng really wanted to kick him to death.
"Ending up in such a state and you still have the face to carry the title of my descendant?" Gu Feng was left almost speechless and wanted to ridicule him.
Before he was sealed away, the bloodlines of the Gu Family, Lin Family, or even the Yu Family were quite strong.
How could everything have fallen apart in just over ten thousand years?
Gu Feng parted his long hair with his hands, revealing a face that hadn’t changed in the slightest and said, "Look carefully, who am I?"
Lin Qi replied, "I see nothing, stop using Disguise Techniques to impersonate my Taoist Ancestor. Aren’t you afraid of being struck by Heavenly Thunder? I tolerated those who impersonated others before, but now you even dare to impersonate my Taoist Ancestor? Let me tell you, you people are going too far!"
Gu Feng sat, no longer bothering to explain his identity and asked, "Where have your forebears gone?"
Wanting to hide in the universe wasn’t difficult; one could change their name and their face.
Gu Feng mainly hadn’t seen what his descendants looked like, so he couldn’t precisely find his offspring within the entire Divine Sense population management.
Upon hearing that he was asking about his ancestors from the Upper Realm, Lin Qi became even more convinced that the person before him was from another family trying to probe him.
"Forget it; you won’t get anything out of me."
Gu Feng didn’t only have to rely on getting information from him about the whereabouts of other Gu family descendants, so he didn’t want to continue this topic and casually conjured a secret technique book on the table instead.
He said, "I have no idea how the Cold Moon Sect managed to expel the Gu family from the sect. Since you can’t learn the secret techniques of your Ancestor Grandmother, whether it’s the remaining Yu family or the Gu family’s techniques, they are indeed disappointing in the realm of high-level cultivators. Take this secret technique book. Whether you continue to fall into disgrace and shame the Gu family or choose to uphold the family’s honor depends on your own comprehension."
As he spoke, Gu Feng stood up and left a mark on Lin Qi’s forehead, "This mark will protect you in times of danger. If you want to find me, you can release your Divine Sense into this mark to meet me."
Then, Gu Feng disappeared.
It was as if he had used Instant Teleportation.
Such a phenomenon was rare on Earth, and perhaps only the Guardian Envoy possesses such ability.
Lin Qi approached the table and saw the secret technique book titled "Swallowing Heaven Emperor Technique," and his pupils slightly dilated.
But the cautious Lin Qi muttered, "Even the Guardian Envoy has personally come to fish for information?"
"Is this ’Emperor’ level secret technique real or fake?" Lin Qi couldn’t believe that the other party was truly his ancestor.
As a joke.
Gu Feng, that was the name of the Taoist Ancestor of his family.
No one in the next generation of the Gu family would dare to use such a name; it would be an act of grave disrespect.
As for whether he was the Taoist Ancestor himself?
That was even more impossible.
In the catastrophic invasion more than ten thousand years ago, which was akin to a cosmic explosion involving thirty-something Supreme cultivators, all cultivators witnessed the Taoist Ancestor fall in that battle for the sake of all human cultivators.
The breaking of the strongest life-bound Divine Artifact Compass was the best proof.
Ancestor Grandmother and Qingxue Ancestor had spent thousands of years searching for the Taoist Ancestor without any trace or news.
It almost confirmed the fact that the Taoist Ancestor had fallen and vanished.
Inside the apartment where Jiang Ruolin resided.
The first thing she did upon exiting seclusion was to open Gu Feng’s room door.
Seeing that he was not there, Jiang Ruolin immediately panicked.
She took out her phone to call Gu Feng, then realized he didn’t use a phone.
Jiang Ruolin hastened to push the door open and go out to look for him.
As it happened, just as she opened the apartment door, Gu Feng had also just returned.
For some reason, the sense of relief that came from fearing loss and then finding what she thought was lost made her subconsciously wrap her arms around Gu Feng’s neck and hold him tightly.
"I thought you had left, that you wouldn’t come back."
Jiang Ruolin’s heart was racing, her tone slightly reproachful.
Gu Feng gently patted her back, smelling the faint scent of her body, and said, "I met an old acquaintance, so I went out for a few days. Congratulations, you’ve reached the late-stage Foundation Establishment."
In the past few days, Jiang Ruolin had completely digested the nutritional value of the high-tier Wild Beasts eaten at the restaurant, charging straight from the early stage to the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
And she still had an abundance of Spiritual Power reserve.
True to the meat from creatures of the Thirteen Layers of Heaven, the contained spiritual qi was indeed rich.
If she wanted to maximize the use of this remaining spiritual qi, she needed to break through the major realm: Core Formation Stage!
