Chapter 157: The struggle

Gu Fan had only walked more than a dozen steps into the gate. Guan Haotian, wearing a white robe, walked out of the door with a smile and was about to meet him. Without saying a word, he hugged Gu Fan.

"I just knew that you were a tough guy and you didn't die so easily! Hahaha!" Guan Haotian let go of his hand, patted Gu Fan's shoulder fiercely, and then laughed to the sky.

Gu Fan fully understood Guan Haotian's mood. Gu Fan was missing in his jurisdiction. Before, he was probably thinking about how to explain to his brother Pingyuan Hou Guyun, but when he saw Gu Fan coming back without any damage, how could he be unhappy?

"Come here, prepare wine, prepare wine!" Guan Haotian couldn't help but say something to Gu Fan, and then hugged Gu Fan's shoulder and shouted loudly: "Tonight our uncle and nephew will not return without getting drunk!"

"Ying Beihou!" Gu Fan lowered his head, came out of Guan Haotian's arm, and said to him: "I have something important to tell you when I come back this time."

"Is it important? What can you do? Drinking with uncle is the biggest important thing!" Guan Haotian said to Gu Fan with a smile, "What's the matter with our uncle and nephew at the table."

Facing Guan Haotian's nonsense attitude, Gu Fan felt a little helpless. He whispered to Guan Haotian with a hint of disappointment on his face: "Ying Beihou, have you ever suspected that Dan Tai Mingjing and the powerful people in the Zili barbarians?"

The smile on Guan Haotian's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a serious expression. He stood up straight and asked Gu Fan coldly: "Fan'er, where did you get the news?" You should know that the Beidou Dynasty always emphasizes internal unity. Even if the civilian Hou represented by the Gu family and the noble Hou represented by the Dan Tai family were already fighting in secret, both sides had to make the illusion of working diligently and assisting the country together in front of the royal family. If there is rumors that a military Hou speculation about another military Hou being illegal, the former will often be the one who suffers.

"Ying Beihou, you don't have to ask where I got the news. Tell me, right?" Gu Fan asked Guan Haotian with a faint expression on his face.

The guards next to Guan Haotian retreated tactfully, and some things were unheard of, because only dead people were the most trustworthy. At this time, only Gu Fan and Guan Haotian were left in the huge courtyard.

Guan Haotian used star power to carefully investigate the entire courtyard again to ensure that no one was eavesdropping, and finally said, "Fan'er, you are right. During the last battle in Lincang City, the actions made by Dan Tai Mingjing's troops were really suspicious. His White Tiger tribe was almost at a loss and retreated as soon as it collapsed. He lost less than ten thousand people, but he gave up a large number of positions to the barbarians... The barbarians were also very strange. They did not take advantage of the victory and drove straight into Kunming of Dan Tai Mingjing. Instead, they guarded my Xuanwu Division like hunting dogs, and cut off the contact between the two Kunming departments and my Xuanwu Division. This is a bit fake!"

Gu Fan knew that Yingbei Hou Guan Haotian was already full of anger at this time, and just waited to find an excuse to attack Dan Tai Mingjing.

"My mother's legs, Dan Tai Mingjing, you are old turtle. If you have the ability, you can hold your tail tightly. Don't let me find a chance." Guan Haotian responded with both hands and cursed swear words.

"Ying Beihou, I have something here, you will definitely be interested in it." Gu Fan said as he took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Guan Haotian and said, "This is what you want."

"Serious?" Guan Haotian took the letter suspiciously and gently took it out of the kraft paper envelope. When he suddenly shook it open, he was stunned. He looked at Gu Fan with a strange look, and the sentences were actually a little incoherent. "This... this... Fan'er, how could you have such a thing in your hand?"

If Gu Fan made up something at this time, he bumped into Dan Tai Mingjing and Yan Song's secret envoy who communicated with him when he came back and intercepted the letter, Guan Haotian would rather doubt and dare not hand over the letter, because cooperating with the enemy and treason was a serious crime. If the Star Emperor Longyan was furious, it would be possible to destroy the three clans of Dan Tai Mingjing. However, the risk of reporting the enemy and treason was quite high. Once the Dan Tai family refuted, not only would Guan Haotian's status be lost, but he might also be imprisoned. What's more, he would directly put the confrontation between the Pingyuan Hou Party and the Dan Tai family from the dark to the bright spot. In the future, those who waited for the two factions would be fighting endlessly. Moreover, this matter was initiated by the Pingyuan Hou Party. Whether it was the Star Emperor or the six Taiwei, there would be invisible points deductions. He would be deducted from a hat of not uniting his colleagues and forming a clan for personal gain. Even if he was as proud as Pingyuan Hou Guyun could not bear it.

Moreover, Gu Fan knew that Guan Haotian was definitely the backbone of the Gu family faction and there was no need to hide from this "Uncle Guan", so he chased himself from the battlefield of Lincang City, and met the Zichen Palace monk who went to the Tiandi Treasure House, and how he followed him into the sixth floor of the Tiandi Treasure House like a shadow.

When Gu Fan said that he was quick to develop wisdom and sealed the evil god Okhoba with the power of the eight formations of spirit stones, Guan Haotian couldn't help but exclaim: "Fan'er, he really shouldn't die. If I meet the evil god Okhoba, even if I was locked by the Emperor of Heaven with a forbidden control, I'm afraid I can't escape. You actually subdued him. It's really a blessing." He paused for a moment and said: "Those immortals often say that if they survive the disaster, they will have good fortune. Fan'er, it seems that you will definitely be better than others in the future!"

When Gu Fan heard Guan Haotian, the old man, said this in a genius manner, he couldn't help but feel the urge to laugh. He held his smile slightly and continued, "Later, I entered the seventh floor and got the immortal medicine. Then the treasure house of the Emperor of Heaven collapsed. After I escaped, there were a few eyes-free guys who wanted to rob me, as if they were called the Trail Scissor Five."

"Sliding Five?" Guan Haotian smiled helplessly and said, "No one will use his real name when he comes out to rob."

"Yes, the levels are innate, and I also said that I am from Beisu Hou." Gu Fan continued: "I had already killed four people at that time, and only all of them were killed. Did Ying Beihou know that Beisu Hou had these people under Beisu Hou?"

"Haha, there are so many innate warriors under the command of Dan Tai Ruoxie, the North Su Hou, who is as beautiful as us..." Guan Haotian complained and continued. "Dan Tai Ruoxie is in charge of the Yantian army that suppressed the Quanrong. Because the Quanrong's personality is cunning and changeable and capricious, His Majesty the Star Emperor is said to have issued a secret edict to the North Su Hou that he could recruit the strong people in the Quanrong for his own use and use the barbarians to control the barbarians. The Beisu Hou also took chicken feathers as command arrows, relying on the barbarians.

This secret edict led to the warriors of the Quanrong Zhongkuotian level and above who were willing to serve as officials, and they would hire them one after another." Guan Haotian explained in detail: "In this way, the entire Yantian Army became his power. Originally, the Yantian Army and the Shuntian Army were led by two military marquises, but later another military marquis was undermined by him, which was not worthy of his reputation. Three months ago, the Ministry of War simply retreated another military marquis and was idle at home."

Gu Fan frowned and suddenly said in surprise: "Isn't this other military marquis of the Yantian Army a Tiebi Marquis Fan Suiyang?"

"Yes, Lao Fan has never dealt with that boy. He left the wild three months ago and stayed in the Marquis' Mansion every day to grow vegetables. He was depressed. You had already left Tianjing City, so I don't know, your father wrote a special letter to encourage him." Guan Haotian sighed and said, "This Dan Tai Ruoxie will sooner or later be a big trouble for us."

"Has Fan Suiyang stepped down?" Gu Fan exclaimed. This was different from the history he knew before. Even in that lifetime, the Marquis of Beisu, Dan Tai Ruoxie, still ascended the Star Level at the age of 18, but his power was not yet at the level of Xuntian. Fan Suiyang could suppress this kid with his qualifications. Unexpectedly, in this lifetime, Dan Tai Ruoxie actually had power in Xuntian, squeezed Fan Suiyang away and held the power of Yantian Army alone. In the last lifetime, Dan Tai Ruoxie had only reached Xingjie's strength, which was comparable to Gu Yu. The two of them had been competing secretly as new generations of powerful men in their respective factions, but in this lifetime, Gu Fan was born, and Dan Tai Ruoxie strengthened so much.

Gu Fan felt that it was not easy for him to gain absolute loyalty from an army of ten thousand people at the age of seventeen, and Dan Tai Ruoxie actually firmly grasped the 500,000 Yantian Army at the age of twenty-three.

"This son will definitely be a disaster in the future." Gu Fan said uneasy in his heart.

"Fan'er, it is said that Dan Tai Ruoxie has a subordinate who is proficient in alchemy. In order to control his subordinates, everyone will take a pill when they go out for a mission. The effect is better than the medium-grade pill. However, if the antidote is not taken at the specified time, they will die of poison, bleeding from seven orifices, and the most evil thing is that if that person dies, Dan Tai Ruoxie will be able to sense it and know who killed him." Guan Haotian looked at Gu Fan and said, "Although these are just rumors, Fan'er, you should be careful in the future." Suddenly, Guan Haotian remembered something, waved the letter in his hand, and asked, "Fan'er, it's all gone far. Where did your letter come from?"

Gu Fan smiled faintly and said to Guan Haotian: "Princess Jiuli gave us the meeting gift to the Gu family!"

"What!" Even though Guan Haotian had been through the battlefield for a long time and had encountered anything, he was still open and could stuff an egg into it.
