Chapter 3343: 3343
Chapter 3343: With Me Here, No One Can Touch Us
Lin Moyu's non-answer was taken as confirmation in Gu Cang's eyes.
Very few people knew about Nine Extremes Glacier Tea, only the elders of a few top powers. But to be able to clearly taste and identify the specific grade, it was likely only the Three Ancestors.
Nine Extremes Glacier Tea ranged from the most common first extreme to the top ninth extreme. Only the Three Ancestors had ever obtained all grades from first to seventh extreme of Nine Extremes Glacier Tea.
As for the eighth and ninth extreme glacier tea, even Gu Cang had never tasted them.
Even the seventh extreme, he had only tasted once.
So Gu Cang instinctively believed that Little Mei had a connection to the Three Ancestors.
Gu Cang could never have imagined that Little Mei was once also a ninth level elder of the Cold Water Holy Land and had personally tasted Nine Extremes Glacier Tea.
Lin Moyu saying Little Mei was his disciple made Gu Cang feel even more that Lin Moyu's relationship with the Three Ancestors was extraordinary, far exceeding his expectations.
His attitude towards Lin Moyu became increasingly polite, "Young friend Lin, do you have any business in coming here this time?"
Lin Moyu said, "Indeed, I have two things to do. First is to ask Elder some questions."
Gu Cang said, "Please ask, young friend."
Lin Moyu said, "I went to the Netherworld Race in the Western Continent some time ago and found that the Netherworld Race was using humans as sacrifices. Does Elder know about this?"
Gu Cang replied without thinking, "This old man hasn't dealt with sect affairs for many years and isn't very clear about most matters. But I can ask about it."
Lin Moyu nodded, "This matter isn't urgent. Let me talk about the second thing first. This second matter might put you in a difficult position."
Gu Cang said, "Not to boast, but as long as it's a matter of the Holy Land, this old man can still make decisions. Please speak freely."
Lin Moyu said, "I've come to take someone."
Gu Cang looked puzzled, "Take someone?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "My wife, the current Holy Lord, Gu Hanyu."
Gu Cang was stunned on the spot, "Young friend Lin, did this old man hear wrong? Could you say that again?"
Lin Moyu said with a slight smile, "You didn't hear wrong. It's Gu Hanyu, my wife."
Gu Cang frowned deeply. If anyone else had said this, Gu Cang would probably have slapped them already. But now it was Lin Moyu, so he held back and didn't act.
Gu Cang said softly, "Can young friend Lin explain what's going on?"
Lin Moyu said, "Some things, I'm not comfortable explaining alone. Why don't we call Hanyu here? It would be better for her to explain to you."
Gu Cang nodded, "That's fine."
He sent a message to Gu Hanyu asking her to come over. Although Gu Hanyu was the Holy Lord in charge of the Holy Land's affairs, she still had to obey when facing Gu Cang.
Strength was everything. Titles were just titles after all.
Lin Moyu could feel that Gu Cang's heart was very complicated at this moment. On one side were the Holy Land's rules, on the other was himself, putting Gu Cang in a difficult position.
Obviously, Gu Cang didn't want to offend him, because he thought Lin Moyu had the Three Ancestors behind him. In fact, he didn't want to offend the Three Ancestors.
Lin Moyu understood the stakes involved.
Gu Cang sighed deeply, "Young friend Lin, do you know the Holy Land's rules?"
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Rules are made by predecessors. Later generations can break them. Sometimes unchanging rules need to be updated and replaced."
"I don't want to put you in a difficult position either, so I've thought of a few solutions."
Gu Cang's eyes brightened slightly, "Please, do tell."
Lin Moyu said, "If the Holy Land's Holy Lord can't marry outsiders, then let Hanyu give up the position of Holy Lord. Wouldn't she be able to marry outside then?"
As soon as these words were said, Gu Cang's brow furrowed even more, "Since the Holy Land's establishment, there have only been Holy Lords who died in battle, never any who voluntarily gave up their position."
This solution sounded good but was actually not feasible. Little Mei had already said before, the Cold Water Holy Land's Holy Lord only had two possibilities.
One was to advance to seventh level elder and choose the next Holy Lord candidate before stepping down.
But seventh level elders also couldn't marry outsiders.
Seventh level elders were extremely important combat power for the Holy Land, their importance not much less than the Holy Lord.
The other possibility was Holy Lords who died in battle. In the early days of establishing the Holy Land, during years of great battles with the Questioning Dao Sect, there were indeed Holy Lords who died in battle.
Apart from these two possibilities, there had never been a third path for Holy Lords.
Now wanting Gu Hanyu to voluntarily step down, even if she really did step down, Gu Hanyu would still be bound.
Voluntarily stepping down and then letting the former Holy Lord marry outside would be an insult to the Cold Water Holy Land. They couldn't possibly agree.
Although Gu Cang didn't explicitly refuse, he had already told Lin Moyu that this path wouldn't work.
Lin Moyu said, "If the first method doesn't work, then we can only use the second. But the second method isn't very good, and I don't want to put Hanyu in a difficult position."
Gu Cang understood Lin Moyu's meaning. The first was to negotiate nicely, the second was to use force.
From what Gu Cang knew of Lin Moyu, for him to dare say this meant Lin Moyu must certainly have confidence.
But Lin Moyu was only at fourth level Dao Venerable. Where did his confidence come from?
"Could it be confidence given by the Three Ancestors?"
"But would the Three Ancestors take action against us for his sake?"
Gu Cang had known the Three Ancestors for many years and felt they wouldn't take action for this kind of thing. He couldn't quite understand.
A bunch of smiles squeezed onto his aged face, "This old man believes we can always discuss a win-win solution."
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "If this matter succeeds, we'll be in-laws. It's naturally best if we can avoid damaging our relationship."
Little Mei said nothing, just drinking her tea, being a qualified bystander, and enjoying watching her teacher's drama unfold.
Soon, the space outside the valley distorted slightly, and the snow-like beautiful Gu Hanyu appeared outside the valley.
She walked into the valley with small steps and saw Lin Moyu in the courtyard.
She paused for a moment, a glint flashing in her eyes, "He really came!"
Memories surged. She remembered what Lin Moyu had said before. Lin Moyu had said that once he established himself, he would come to the Cold Water Holy Land to marry her.
At the time, she had just treated it as a joke. How could establishing oneself be so easy? And he wanted to come to the Cold Water Holy Land to marry her?
Who knew how many years it would take. Even tens of thousands of years would be short.
Unexpectedly, after just a few years, Lin Moyu had really come.
Not only had he come, but he was drinking tea with Gu Cang, seemingly on good terms.
Gu Hanyu didn't understand at all what had happened. After freezing for a second, she returned to normal.
But that second of freezing had already given Gu Cang an answer.
Gu Hanyu came before Gu Cang and bowed, "Elder, why did you summon Hanyu?"
Gu Cang didn't conceal anything, "Tell us about your relationship with young friend Lin."
Gu Hanyu's delicate body trembled slightly, "My relationship with him?"
As she spoke, Gu Hanyu looked at Lin Moyu, hoping to get an answer from him.
She couldn't use voice transmission to ask now. At this distance, voice transmission would certainly be heard by Gu Cang.
Lin Moyu said, "Just tell the truth. No need to hide anything."
Gu Hanyu said softly, "Are you sure?"
Lin Moyu said, "I'm sure. Don't worry. With me here, no one can touch us."
These words made Gu Cang's brow twitch.
Lin Moyu used the most calm tone to give the greatest threat, clearly telling him that he didn't take the Cold Water Holy Land seriously at all.
"Alright!" Gu Hanyu took a deep breath. She chose to believe Lin Moyu's words.
