Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 521: Entrust by elders, retrieve the family home

Chapter 521: 521: Entrust by elders, retrieve the family home

When Lin Qi appeared again, it was at the police station’s archive department.

He said to the staff member, "Hello, I would like to change my name."

Nowadays, the official institutions of all countries on Earth have already been managed by members of the major clans.

The history of name changes among the Gu family members was actually known to them.

Hundreds of years ago, descendants of the Gu family had once changed their surname to ’Yu’.

Later, Lin Qi and his father changed their name to the ’Lin’ surname.

But they never escaped the watchful eyes of the major clans, though they could understand why the Gu family members did this.

From the perspective of the major clans, the Gu family members’ surname change could also be related to their inability to withstand the pressure from those surrounding them.

After all, once being the foremost great family on a global scale with the title of ’Descendants of the Taoist Ancestor’ added even more glory to this family from birth.

But if you’re not doing well, that title is like a burden and pressure.

The staff member asked, "What would you like to change it to?"

Lin Qi stated each word clearly, "Change it to the Gu surname, Gu Yuanqi."

The staff member looked up at him in astonishment, curious about Lin Qi’s thought process, "If I may ask, why change to this name?"

Lin Qi answered, "Gu was originally my family name, Yuan is my generation name, and Qi is what my father gave me, so I want to change it to Gu Yuanqi."

In his heart, he silently proclaimed: From today onwards, we Gu family members no longer need to hide!

Because the Ancestor has returned.

This was Gu Feng’s request.

All those clan descendants who changed their names and lived ghost-like existences must revert to their original surnames!

So Gu Yuanqi came to make his declaration with integrity and pride.

Not just him; five members from the fourth and fifth generations of the Gu family also shed their disguises.

They made their appearance on the streets of Shencheng, assuming the identity of the ancient ancestors from the Upper Realm of the Gu family.

It would be difficult for Murong Zun not to take notice.

Because he saw Gu Weimin revisiting the old grounds, walking onto the great avenue of the Murong Mansion.

Once, this avenue was called "Gu Mansion Avenue."

Now, it was renamed to "Murong Mansion Street."

The moment Gu Weimin stepped onto the street, he saw Murong Zun instantly teleport in front of him.

The two of them faced each other off, with Gu Weimin revealing a long-absent calm smile, "Long time no see."

Murong Zun gazed deeply at him, "It has been a long time indeed. Last time we parted, you were only at the Four-layered Heaven Realm. I hadn’t expected that after a few thousand years, I heard you’ve become a peak expert of the Ninth Layer Heaven."

"The esteemed envoy truly has an extensive reach with news so well-informed," said Gu Weimin with a light chuckle, the two had shared a friendship on Earth once, "My progress has not been as impressive as that of your Murong Family. Nowadays, the most powerful among your Murong descendants are already at the nineteenth level of the Cultivation country clans, congratulations."

Murong Zun, quite clearly not amused by Gu Weimin’s sarcasm, stopped pretending, "What made you decide to come out of hiding?"

"No more hiding," Gu Weimin expressed a sense of unprecedented relief, "It’s exhausting, can’t hide anymore. If we keep hiding, the Gu family might end up without descendants."

"Rest assured," Murong Zun said, "we won’t harm the Gu family’s descendants because I am the Guardian Envoy appointed by the Taoist Ancestor. I do care about public opinion pressure."

Gu Weimin laughed, his tone slightly cold, "Is there anything you and your master couldn’t do?"

Murong Zun’s eyes flashed with a cold light, "In remembrance of our past relationship, tell me the whereabouts of the fragment, and I assure your Gu family lineage will be safe, otherwise, don’t blame me!"

Gu Weimin glanced at the mansion behind Murong Zun, "You want to know where the fragment is? Then I’ll tell you; it’s in that mansion."

Murong Zun’s expression turned stern as he grabbed Gu Weimin’s collar, "Do you think by saying this you can incite those major clans from beyond the domain to attack me?"

"I want to try," Gu Weimin said with interest, watching him, "They, in pursuit of a higher realm, are probably no less ruthless than you are. You can gamble whether those old monsters are willing to exchange the lives of your entire Murong Upper Realm clan for their Earth clan members in exchange for entrance into the sixth sector of the world."

If the fragment actually was in Murong Mansion, those old monsters on the brink of extinction, for the sake of breaking through their limits, indeed might use the lives of the entire Murong Upper Realm clan as a trade for the lives of their Earth descendants, to compel Murong Zun to surrender the fragment.

Those old monsters’ clan members in the Upper Realm can wait for Murong Zun’s death before choosing to reproduce and proliferate.

And if the descendants of the Murong Family from beyond the domain died, it would be a waste of thousands of years of progress.

Of course, Murong Zun could also pass the inheritance on to his own descendants on Earth, and continue to battle against these major clans to the end.

But that would also mean that the Murong family descendants would never be able to leave Earth.

They could only cultivate up to late-stage Core Formation.

Meaning all descendants could only live to about four hundred years old.

Over time, there would be subversive thoughts within the clan—can you guarantee that your own people won’t betray you for immortality?

So, if it really came down to the wire, Murong Zun indeed did not have the audacity.

"Do you really think I wouldn’t dare kill you?" Murong Zun’s eyes turned fierce as he glared at Gu Weimin.

"You see," said Gu Weimin with a click of his tongue, "I told you that you were capable of anything; you underestimate yourself. But you really can’t kill me!"

"Is that so?" Murong Zun said with a savage look, his hand—originally clutching Gu Weimin’s collar—attempted to grab his neck, but as soon as his hand touched Gu Weimin’s neck...

Gu Weimin instantly teleported, already appearing ten steps away.

Murong Zun was startled but not panicked, "Was it you who killed the Third Young Master Chen?"

Now, Murong Zun was quite relieved.

Because Gu Weimin had shown his hand, sparing him the effort of being guarded and investigating.

He put his hands behind his back and openly said, "I always suspected that the Gu family’s Protector, like the Guardian, had an inherited Dharma. I only regret not being able to thoroughly investigate and clean up when the Protector died. It turns out you Gu family members obtained this inheritance."

"Do you think just because you’ve got this inheritance, you can arm wrestle with me?" Murong Zun scoffed, "If your Gu family’s Protector could be slain by my master, today I can cut you down just the same!"

Gu Weimin did not understand what he was talking about.

All he knew was that this time his ability to transcend the Earth’s restrictions was because the Ancestor had lifted the Earth’s lock on him.

Just like Lin Yue once was, unaffected by any restrictions of Earth.

"Is that so?" Gu Weimin said indifferently, "All I know is that the Gu family’s Protector back then indeed had Fourth Dimension strength to contend with you. But now with my late Ninth Layer Heaven strength standing on Earth, how can you fight me?"

"What did you say?" Murong Zun was stunned.

Then, the Gu Weimin opposite released his Dharma Image.

And behind the Dharma Image’s head, there were nine rings of light.

On seeing this scene, Murong Zun’s face changed drastically, "Impossible! You can’t have lifted the Taoist Ancestor’s restriction, no way!"

Gu Weimin said, "I am here today, entrusted by my elders, to reclaim the Gu family’s ancestral home."
