I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1634 - 1638: Who Are You Calling Trash?

"Young Master!"

The voice calling out for Gu Xiao finally reached Zhang Menglong's side.

He only felt a surge of mighty power sweep past him, instantly blowing away the scattered remnants of debris. This person's strength likely surpassed that of a perfect being.

"It must be Gu Xiao's father." Zhang Menglong knew from Gu Xiao's memories that there were only three Super Life Forms in the entire Gu Family, aside from Gu Xiao's father, the other two were Gu Xiao's grandfather and great-grandfather.

However, ever since those two stepped down from the position of clan leader, they retreated behind the scenes, spending their days in secluded cultivation. They would only show themselves when the family faced life and death situations, so this person was undoubtedly Gu Xiao's father.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Zhang Menglong immediately pretended to be unconscious and lay on the ground.

The middle-aged man picked up Gu Xiao and ran outside, "Move aside, everyone move aside!"

It was not difficult to hear from the man's tone that he was also very worried about Gu Xiao. Although Gu Xiao had no cultivation talent, he still held considerable importance in his father's heart.

"No external injuries, and seemingly no internal injuries," Gu Cong circulated energy through Gu Xiao's body. His previously damaged internal organs and bones had mostly recovered due to Zhang Menglong's elixirs, and at this moment, no injuries could be found on him.

"Actually unharmed?" Gu Cong breathed a sigh of relief but was also quite surprised. The kind of impact from earlier would have been fatal, even if Gu Xiao's physical constitution were ten times stronger, yet he was entirely unscathed.

"Someone, quickly take the young master down to rest and have someone look after him well." Gu Cong surveyed the wreckage; logically, such a fireball crashing down should have left a substantial meteor within.

Yet, after scanning through the ruins, he couldn't find any trace of the culprit, which left him deeply puzzled.

When Zhang Menglong was put down, he had already arrived in another room where the servants had changed him into clean clothes.

However, Zhang Menglong keenly noticed that these servants were very careless, revealing a deliberate and indifferent attitude.

Thinking about it, it was clear; in such a large family, both open and hidden disputes would exist, and although Gu Xiao was still cherished by his father, in this world, a talentless waste held no real status.

Even the servants might not consider the young master seriously, and Zhang Menglong even suspected that given the chance, they might want to pull Gu Xiao down, especially since who knew which servant was affiliated with Gu Xiao's other siblings.

It must be known that the arranged marriage between Gu Xiao and the Third Princess made other talented youths in the family extremely envious and resentful. If they could remove Gu Xiao, perhaps this opportunity would fall to one of them.

"Consider yourself lucky to have met someone responsible like me!" Zhang Menglong got up to examine Gu Xiao's body. His body was filled with toxins that had lost their toxicity due to years of suppression by other medicines.

Likened to silt in a waterway, it caused Gu Xiao's body's meridians to be extremely blocked, even making him feel exhausted after walking just a few extra steps.

His father had considered other ways to help expel these accumulations, but nothing worked thus far. Even the top alchemists in the Yanlan Empire could only shake their heads since ordinary elixirs would only deepen the residues in his body.

Zhang Menglong directly summoned the Strange Fire to roam Gu Xiao's body. Although his internal body was fragile, with the Strange Fire merged with Zhang Menglong, his control abilities were not affected even after switching bodies.

Under the calcining of the Strange Fire, within just a few breaths, the accumulated drug residues and toxins in his body vanished without a trace.

However, this was only a temporary solution, as the meridians damaged in the womb remained in chaos.

But with Zhang Menglong's current alchemy skills, as long as one wasn't dead, it was a minor issue. He had a hundred elixirs that could turn this useless body into a rare Divine Body.

Though he needed quite a few materials, considering the Gu Family's status and wealth in the Yanlan Empire, obtaining these should not be difficult, as they were not extraordinarily precious or rare herbs.

At that moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a slightly harsh-looking middle-aged man walked in, holding what seemed to be a medicinal soup for Gu Xiao.

This man rudely placed the items on the table without even glancing at Gu Xiao.

"I don't even know how this waste has such luck to survive!"

After speaking, he turned to close the door and leave.

"Wait!" Zhang Menglong got down from the bed, "Who gave you permission to leave?"

This person was deeply imprinted in Gu Xiao's memory, a housekeeper of the Gu Family and a confidant of Gu Xiao's uncle, Gu Meng.

Gu Meng had three sons and a daughter, and his sons had considerable talent, yet the treatment remained disparate because Gu Xiao was the family head's son.

He had always been quite opinionated about his talentless nephew.

During the time when maintaining Gu Xiao's life was a priority, the Gu Family paid a considerable price, which could have propelled his sons to achieve even greater success.

This housekeeper was responsible for Gu Xiao's daily life, and in his memories, causing difficulties for Gu Xiao was not unusual, as well as often doing things that were outrageous.

Gu Xiao, being cowardly, always accepted it without resistance and never mentioned his experiences to his father, which led to these people's attitudes escalating.

The housekeeper showed a flash of confusion. He even suspected that Gu Xiao might have hit his head since he dared to speak in such a tone with him.

"Who gives you the audacity to kick open my door and casually place things on the table? Where are the Gu Family's rules?"

"This kid must have hit his head," the housekeeper sneered. Being a housekeeper, he naturally wouldn't openly clash with Gu Xiao, so he softly said, "Boy, don't stir up trouble; if it weren't family instructions, I wouldn't personally bring you anything."

"You're just a housekeeper, ultimately just a servant of the Gu Family, and you dare speak to me like that?" Today, Zhang Menglong was determined to vent for unfortunate Gu Xiao. For a family servant to ride over him, was there no justice?

"You waste, if it weren't for being a family member, you'd have died several times over," the housekeeper glared menacingly, "I advise you to stay put, otherwise, for the wedding with the Third Princess in a few days, you might just be a corpse!"

The threat in the housekeeper's words was evident.

"Waste?" Zhang Menglong sneered, "Who did you just call a waste?"
