After snatching that scroll of books from his daughter's hands, Gu Yuan didn't hesitate to throw it who-knows-where. It had been over a thousand years, and he had finally managed to have a daughter with great difficulty, yet look at what she had been tormented into by this group of elders?

It was time to put an end to days like this.

Thinking about the matter that the group of elders within the clan had been discussing recently, plus his daughter being forced to learn all day long, he felt that he could plot within this to achieve a result that would kill two birds with one stone!

That was to both make that matter succeed, and also give his daughter a happy childhood!

Thinking up to this point, Gu Yuan couldn't help but reveal a smile.

"Father, what are you thinking about?"

Seeing her father first stop her from learning, then fall into deep thought, and then reveal a smile, Gu Xun'er felt that her father was very abnormal today.

Ten out of ten abnormal, no, twelve out of ten abnormal!

"Xun'er, Father wants to ask you a question, and you must answer me honestly."

Gu Yuan looked at his daughter with exceptional seriousness and said.

"Good, Father, ask away, I will definitely tell the absolute truth!"

Gu Xun'er's little head nodded seriously.

"Do you like days like this where you are learning all day long?"

Gu Yuan asked.

"...No."

Hesitating for a while, and thinking about what she had just said, Gu Xun'er still shook her head, speaking out the true feelings within her heart.

Hearing his daughter's heartfelt words, Gu Yuan smiled.

"Good! Father will give you a happy childhood!"

Gu Yuan spoke with determination.

"Father, what are you going to do? I don't want to see you fight with those elders, if it's going to be like that, I would rather continue learning!"

Truth be told, Gu Xun'er still inherited a part of Gu Yuan's personality.

Her disposition favored quietness, and she also disliked the clansmen fighting with each other for her sake.

"Rest assured, Father will not fight with the elders."

Looking at his daughter's sensible appearance, Gu Yuan smiled.

Subsequently, in the name of the Gu Clan's Clan Leader, Gu Yuan convened a meeting of the highest level within the Gu Clan. The absolute minimum requirement for the elders participating in this meeting was to be a Dou Sheng!

It could be said that they were the most core group of people within the Gu Clan!

"Clan Leader, we wonder what the purpose of you convening this meeting this time is?"

Because this meeting was decided by Gu Yuan on short notice, the group of elders naturally did not know the insider details.

At the same time, the gazes of all the Gu Clan Elders were cast upon Gu Yuan and Gu Xun'er who was by his side. Regarding the fact that Gu Yuan would bring Gu Xun'er to participate in this meeting, they were relatively surprised.

After all, under normal circumstances, Gu Xun'er should not be appearing here at this time.

However, since Gu Xun'er was the daughter of the Clan Leader, plus her bloodline power was tested to be at the eighth tier right at birth, it didn't lead to the group of elders saying much about it.

In their view, they could just treat it as letting the Eldest Miss of their Gu Clan adapt to this kind of meeting ahead of time.

Anyway, this was also a part of Gu Xun'er's learning.

"Naturally, it is regarding the contents discussed last time, I have already reached a resolution!"

After scanning the surroundings, Gu Yuan spoke calmly.

Hearing their own Clan Leader say this, the group of elders instantly became excited.

"Terrific, Clan Leader, you have finally made up your mind!"

"That Tou She Ancient God Jade of the Xiao Clan, it is time for us to fetch it."

"That's right, our Gu Clan has sheltered the Xiao Clan for a thousand years, the Tou She Ancient God Jade in their hands can just be considered as the compensation."

"Anyway, with the Tou She Ancient God Jade in the hands of those descendants of the Xiao Clan, they cannot make use of it either, so it's better to hand it over to us."

"With the past relationship between our Gu Clan and the Xiao Clan, plotting for the Tou She Ancient God Jade in their hands right now, isn't this a bit improper?"

"Yeah, I also feel that doing this is a bit underhanded."

"Shallow! If we don't move, the other six clans, especially the Hun Clan, will move sooner or later, since that's the case, it's better to let our Gu Clan keep it on their behalf!"

"Well said, the Tou She Ancient God Jade is safest only when it is in the hands of our Gu Clan!"

"Furthermore, as long as we obtain the second piece, then our Gu Clan might not lack the opportunity to obtain the remaining Tou She Ancient God Jades from the hands of the other six clans!"

"That's right, the Clan Leader is already at the peak of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, as long as we gather all eight pieces of the Tou She Ancient God Jades and open the Ancient God's Mansion, the Clan Leader will have the opportunity to ascend to the Dou Di realm, at that time, we will be the only true ancient clan on the Dou Qi Continent!"

...

Speaking of this topic, the elders of the Gu Clan became more and more excited one after another. From the side, Gu Xun'er also obtained two important terms from the mouths of these Gu Clan Elders at this moment.

Namely, the Tou She Ancient God Jade and the Xiao Clan!

"Everyone quiet down, listen to me."

Following Gu Yuan's opening, the elders of the Gu Clan quieted down one after another. Previously, regarding this matter, they had only discussed it but had not yet made a decision.

The main issue lay with their Clan Leader's approval.

This kind of matter, in the end, required their Clan Leader to nod his head. However, because their Clan Leader took his friendship and agreement with Xiao Xuan into consideration, he had been hesitating and could not make up his mind for the longest time.

Because of this, they were incredibly anxious too!

Now, the Clan Leader had finally reached a decision, so whether he agreed or disagreed, it could at least be considered a conclusion. Therefore, the elders of the Gu Clan were all looking at Gu Yuan with incomparable anticipation at this moment.

"Phew~, this matter, I agree to it."

Sighing, Gu Yuan spoke up.

"Xiao Xuan, my apologies!"

At the same time, Gu Yuan silently apologized to his good friend in his heart.

Just as Gu Yuan's voice fell, the elders of the Gu Clan even jumped up in excitement one by one.

This day, they had been waiting for who-knows-how-long!

Even though a small portion of the Gu Clan Elders had previously opposed this approach, it was actually just because they couldn't bear the loss of face. But inside their hearts, they still wanted to obtain that piece of Tou She Ancient God Jade from the Xiao Clan.

"Good, Clan Leader, we will go to the Xiao Clan right now to fetch the Tou She Ancient God Jade!"

Saying this, a Gu Clan Elder prepared to set off for the Xiao Clan.

The movements of the Xiao Clan had always been kept firmly within the grasp of the Gu Clan!

"Wait a moment!"

Just before this Gu Clan Elder prepared to leave, Gu Yuan suddenly called out to him.

"Clan Leader, what's wrong? Haven't you already agreed?"

This Gu Clan Elder asked with a face full of confusion.

"On this matter, I have indeed agreed, but given the past friendship between our Gu Clan and the Xiao Clan, plus my relationship with Xiao Xuan, it is not appropriate for us to just directly go to their door to fetch the Tou She Ancient God Jade!"

"How would the other six clans look at my Gu Clan in the future?"

Gu Yuan said after casting a glance at that Gu Clan Elder who was preparing to set off.

"This..."

Sure enough, this Gu Clan Elder was stumped by Gu Yuan's question.

This was actually the reason why, around this matter, a conclusion had never been reached through discussion.

"Clan Leader, since you convened this meeting today, then presumably you already have a way, right?"

The number two figure of the Gu Clan, the Black Submerged King Gu Lie, who had remained silent all this time, also spoke up at this moment.

"That's right, I naturally already have an idea! For our Gu Clan to openly go to the descendants of the Xiao Clan to snatch the Tou She Ancient God Jade, that is definitely out of the question! But we can change our approach!"

"Which is to send someone into the Xiao Clan, find an opportunity to steal that piece of Tou She Ancient God Jade out without anyone knowing! As long as this matter is not exposed, no one will know that it was done by our Gu Clan."

Gu Yuan spoke eloquently.

Hearing their own Clan Leader's idea, the elders of the Gu Clan, after falling into deep thought for a short moment, also nodded their heads one after another.

"Clan Leader, then whom do you intend to send into the Xiao Clan to take the opportunity to snatch the Tou She Ancient God Jade?"

One of the Three Gu Immortals of the Gu Clan, Gu Dao, asked at this moment.

As Gu Dao asked, Gu Yuan finally cast his gaze upon his daughter by his side. At the same time, the elders of the Gu Clan naturally noticed their own Clan Leader's gaze.

Could it be...?

"No wonder the Clan Leader would bring the Eldest Miss to this meeting today!"

This thought emerged within the minds of all the Gu Clan Elders.

"I will let Xun'er enter the Xiao Clan to complete this plan! Given Xun'er's age, she naturally won't arouse the vigilance of the Xiao Clan's descendants, and it will also be easier to succeed!"

Gu Yuan also spoke out the decision that the elders of the Gu Clan had already guessed at this moment.

Regarding their own Clan Leader's decision, the group of elders could not help but look at each other at this moment. Truth be told, this was indeed a good method. But for some unknown reason, they always felt that their own Clan Leader's purpose wasn't that simple!

Yet for a moment, they couldn't find a reason to object either.
