The person most closely related to the Starry Sky Ancient Road was naturally Gu Changsheng himself, but after he constructed the Starry Sky Ancient Road, he handed it over to the Eight Great Divine Generals for management. To this day, he still doesn't know what kind of model it has developed into.
A Dharma boat sped through the starry sky. Gu Changsheng, Gu Xinfei, and Snake Ji stood together on the deck. Gu Xinfei was telling Gu Changsheng about the current situation of the descendants of the Eight Great Divine Generals.
"Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, the Eight Great Divine Generals all left behind families, but after more than ninety thousand years of evolution, only four major families remain today. They are our Gu Xin family, the Long family, the Yun family, and the Liu family."
"In order to protect the Starry Sky Ancient Road, our four families' ancestors opened up an ancient star within the scope of the Starry Sky Ancient Road and led their clansmen to live and multiply on this ancient star. After hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, it can be considered a prosperous ancient star, but of course, it cannot be compared with the Tianhuang Star where Your Majesty is located."
After listening, Gu Changsheng's face was filled with emotion. Of course, he knew that the Eight Great Divine Generals had all left behind families, after all, he had been the matchmaker and officiant for three of the Divine Generals back then.
The Eight Great Divine Generals were Gu Xinao, Jun Haotian, Ling Yunfei, Wen Zong, Long Wu, Yun Yang, Liu Guang, and Chen Yu.
Among them, Jun Haotian, Ling Yunfei, and Long Wu were all married to their Dao partners under his witness.
Back then, their strength had not yet reached its peak, they were only a few thousand years old and had just broken through to the Quasi-Emperor realm. At that time, he had already lived for a hundred thousand years. A few thousand years old was no different from children to him. Now, they have disappeared into the river of history, and who knows how many times they have been reincarnated.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Gu Changsheng said.
Gu Xinfei quickly shook his head and said, "How can this be hard work? Being able to share the worries of Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, is our honor. If the old ancestor Gu Xinao knew that Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, was still alive, he would definitely be overjoyed... Uh..."
Gu Xinfei realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly stopped what he was about to say.
"Hehe!" Gu Changsheng smiled and didn't care about Gu Xinfei's words.
...
The flying boat slowly flew into the range of a vibrant ancient star and was immediately sensed by the strong on the ancient star. Two powerful auras came towards the flying boat.
"Stop, this is the Ancient Road Star, who comes here?"
These two were both Saints in cultivation. Sensing the arrival of extraterrestrial aura, they rushed out and blocked the flying boat.
"Long Xiaoyun, Yun Tian, are you tired of living? You dare to block His Majesty, the Holy Emperor." Gu Xinfei walked out of the flying boat while cursing, looking at the two with a gloomy face, and speaking their names directly, obviously knowing them.
"Gu Xinfei? Didn't you go to be a gatekeeper? Why did you suddenly come back? Aren't you afraid of being punished?" Long Xiaoyun, one of the two, was also very shocked when he saw Gu Xinfei.
Yun Tian also quickly said, "You quickly go back, we'll pretend we didn't see you, otherwise, if the elders know, you'll be miserable."
Logically speaking, Gu Xinfei is currently serving as a gatekeeper on Baiye Star and cannot leave Baiye Star without orders, otherwise, he will be charged with dereliction of duty by the elders of the four major families. Although there will be no danger to his life, there will still be punishment.
In order to better manage the Starry Sky Ancient Road, the four major families established an elders' council, which is not only responsible for dispatching and deploying strong people to become gatekeepers, but also for finding human strong people in the universe. Ye Xinao, whom Gu Changsheng met before, was chosen by the elders' council of the four major families.
Both character and strength are indispensable.
"You two, you actually want to engage in favoritism and fraud?" Gu Xinfei stared wide-eyed at these two good friends who had grown up with him, feeling extremely anxious in his heart.
"Damn, can't you be so loud? We're all doing it for your own good, but you're scolding us instead?" If he wasn't afraid of alarming the elders' council, Long Xiaoyun would definitely roll up his sleeves and fight Gu Xinfei.
Yun Tian quickly interjected to mediate, "Alright, alright, Xiaoyun, say less. Gu Xinfei, you should leave quickly, otherwise, we'll also suffer if we're discovered."
Gu Xinfei was so anxious, didn't I just say His Majesty, the Holy Emperor? Why don't you two listen to what I just said? Aren't you two courting death by doing this now?
"You..." Gu Xinfei didn't know what to say.
"You what you, quickly get lost, we'll pretend we didn't see you," Long Xiaoyun said.
"Alas!" Gu Xinfei sighed, he turned to face the Dharma boat and saluted seriously, saying, "I hope Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, will not blame them. I will bear the blame for their mistakes alone."
"I think it's very good, very humane!"
Gu Changsheng also walked out, with Snake Ji following behind.
Long Xiaoyun and Yun Tian were dumbfounded the moment they saw Gu Changsheng. Gu Xinfei could recognize Gu Changsheng, and naturally, they were no exception. It really was His Majesty, the Holy Emperor!
Suddenly, their bodies trembled, and they quickly knelt down.
"Long Xiaoyun (Yun Tian) greets Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor. We offended Your Majesty just now, please forgive us." The two said in unison.
Gu Changsheng waved his hand, lifting the two up, and said, "Forgive you? What crime do you have? Why should I forgive you?"
Hearing this, the two were immediately relieved. At this time, they suddenly remembered Gu Xinfei's words at the beginning, but when they saw Gu Xinfei, they were worried about him being punished, and for a moment they forgot that Gu Xinfei had already mentioned His Majesty, the Holy Emperor.
"I will also pretend that I didn't see it this time, but there must not be a next time. The rules still need to be followed," Gu Changsheng said.
Hearing this, Long Xiaoyun and Yun Tian looked at Gu Xinfei in unison.
Gu Xinfei was stunned and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"
Long Xiaoyun ignored Gu Xinfei and instead said to Gu Changsheng, "Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, you are right. I think I should take Gu Xinfei back and await the elders' council's decision."
"Yes, yes, yes, that's how it should be," Yun Tian quickly echoed.
His Majesty, the Holy Emperor, said that the rules should be followed, and taking Gu Xinfei back would be in accordance with the rules.
"You..." Gu Xinfei looked at these two childhood friends speechlessly. In the most dangerous times, they are the safest, and in the safest times, they are the most dangerous.
Bad friends!
Gu Changsheng was stunned at first, but he immediately understood what they meant. He laughed and looked at Gu Xinfei, saying, "You are very lucky to have such friends."
It is rare to find a confidant in life, and Long Xiaoyun and Yun Tian would rather risk being punished than let Gu Xinfei be punished. Isn't it very lucky to have such friends?
"Hehe, Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, you are too kind. They usually make me miserable," Gu Xinfei said, but the smile on his face was still very happy, obviously this "miserable" was the mutual teasing between friends and brothers.
"You still have the nerve to say us, if it wasn't for you last time, how would I have gotten married so early?" Long Xiaoyun glared at Gu Xinfei.
"Then tell me, isn't Liu Yu good to you?" Gu Xinfei asked.
"This... good is good, but..."
"But what? Liu Yu is the most beautiful among our four families' peers. It's your blessing that she can fancy you. You're still complaining. If you complain again, I'll tell the head of the Liu family." Yun Tian couldn't stand it anymore.
"Don't, don't, don't, I'm just saying, just saying, you guys took it seriously, really!" Long Xiaoyun immediately cowered.
"Cough cough!" Gu Changsheng coughed twice at this time.
The three were shocked, and then they realized that the incomparably noble Holy Emperor was still standing next to them.
"Your Majesty, we..."
The three looked hesitant.
Gu Changsheng waved his hand and said, "Don't mind, we should go in too. Don't you think it's quite deserted here?"
Gu Changsheng pointed to the surrounding void. Occasionally, one or two meteorites drifted over and were shattered by the formation on the flying boat. Apart from them, there was no vitality at all.
"Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, this way please!"
The three woke up and quickly led the way.
"Hmm!" Gu Changsheng nodded.
Snake Ji on the side looked at the three of them curiously. Are these still Saint-level experts? Their conversation just now was no different from ordinary people. Could it be because I haven't been a Saint for long, so I'm not used to the rhythm of Saints?
On the way, Long Xiaoyun didn't forget to introduce the situation of the Ancient Road Star to Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng said, "Since you are already married, you should live a good life with your wife. Even outside, you can't say bad things about your wife, understand?"
Long Xiaoyun was stunned. Before he could react, Gu Changsheng walked away with the other two, leaving him alone to ponder.
