she is sweeter than sugar

Are they all your subordinates?

subordinate?

If it is a subordinate, there is no way to participate in the next two rounds.

At the end just now, Patriarch Xia took the initiative to slap Xia Yuan, dragged out a scapegoat elder, and reprimanded them for communicating with each other and stealing the formation he prepared.

Afterwards, he took the initiative to invalidate the Xia family's results in the first round, which was regarded as suppressing the previous matter.

What is worth mentioning is that originally everyone thought that Xia Yuan had the formation that Patriarch Xia secretly revealed, and would come out one step ahead of Shen's in the future.

Including the time when Xia Yuan went to the eighth floor, it was earlier than Shen's.

It's just that the person who came out at the end belonged to the Shen family, which really shocked people.

This time, the Xia family lost all face and face, and they haven't got anything to ask for.

Even though the Xia family tried their best to open the back door for their juniors, the result was not as fast as Jiang and Chen's family, this face was rubbed on the ground.

And if it was originally, the Xia family, as one of the three big families, would have been able to get a third place no matter what, but this time, with a man like Rong Ye participating as the Gu family, his third place is also in jeopardy.

Only one person can participate in each round of the competition. The reason why Patriarch Xia asked this is nothing more than to define the person Rong Ye brought over as a subordinate, so that he cannot participate in the competition.

Only in this way, after the Xia family lost the results of the first round, it is possible to keep the third place.

It's just that Patriarch Xia is too worried about this matter.

Patriarch Jiang and Patriarch Shen also vaguely knew that among this group of people, only Rong Ye knew how to form formations, and the rest seemed to be ordinary people.

So even if it is the Gu family, there is probably only Rong Ye.

Patriarch Jiang and Patriarch Shen really wanted to ask Rong Ye how the rest of the Gu family was doing and where they were.

However, Patriarch Xia is still with them at this moment, so it's not convenient to ask at this moment.

Patriarch Jiang had no choice but to remind Rong Ye at this time, "Only one person can participate in each round of the competition. If it's the second round..." There will be no one in the Gu family.

Rong Ye lowered his eyes and did not speak.

Elder Shen and Elder Jiang at the side became secretly anxious. They thought that Rong Ye only needed to participate in the first round and give everyone a deterrent.

One person is one person, one round is one round, it is not true anyway.

But now I suddenly tell them that the person who thought it was fake is actually real...

They were really not reconciled, so they only stopped in the first round.

However, it is not easy for the Gu family to have such a single seedling.

Can't Rong Ye have a second one by his side?

Rong Ye got up at this time, "I'll ask her if she's happy or not."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

ask her?

Ask who?

Could it be that there is really a second person besides Rong Ye in this Gu family?

Elder Shen and Elder Jiang couldn't help but get up together. Among the people they have met these days, who else might also be a hidden formation master.

But after thinking about it, apart from those two young girls who looked very immature, there was only that log-like person left with a paralyzed face.

These few, no matter how you look at it, don't look like they know how to form formations.

Seeing Rong Ye raised his foot and was about to walk upstairs, Elder Jiang suddenly remembered.

His eyes widened for an instant.

No, there is one more...

And when you think about it carefully, that child...has a few spots on his face that seem familiar...

Elder Jiang's lips trembled a little, regardless of whether the person standing beside him at this moment was Elder Shen, he immediately grabbed his arm, "Old...Old Shen..."

Elder Shen looked horrified, and pulled back his sleeves, "What are you doing? Speak well."

"She...that little girl..."

There was a sound of opening the door, and following the sound of steady and rhythmic footsteps, a figure appeared in front of everyone.

Rong Ye stopped, raised his head to look at the woman who appeared at the end of the stairs, and asked in a low voice, "Are you up?"

"Ah."

Gu Ci walked downstairs step by step, not seeing the vainness of someone who just woke up.

It's just that her voice was lazy, revealing a bit of indifference from the bottom of her bones, "Big competition, right, I will also participate."

Patriarch Xia's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the girl in front of him, an extremely bad premonition arose spontaneously, and he couldn't get rid of it, "Who are you? Could it be that you are also from the Gu family?"

The corners of Rong Ye's lips curled up in an extremely elegant arc.

Turning her head and looking lightly at Patriarch Xia, "Is she not you?"

Patriarch Xia's face turned so green.

Rong Ye's words were too merciless.

However, Rong Ye's words after that made everyone explode.

"Let me introduce, this is my girlfriend, Gu Ci."

Shen Xiaoan and Jiang Yunshu looked at each other in unison.

They remembered that Gu Ci didn't mention this name when he introduced him before. What did he say about his name at that time?

Jiang Yunshu frowned.

As for Shen Xiao'an, he couldn't help thinking of the fact that he had been using Jiang Yinxing's name before, but he felt that it was not a big deal that he didn't use his real name when he was away from home.

Since the names that Gu Ci reported to them earlier were false, then the names that this man reported to them earlier should also be false, or else he did not say that his surname was Gu earlier.

But now, it seems that the point is not this!

The point is... this man is from the Gu family, and this Gu Ci is also from the Gu family, so...

Patriarch Jiang's heart, liver and lungs were shaking non-stop, and he persuaded, "No, you are close relatives, no!"

Gu Ci's eyes fell on Rong Ye, with some doubts.

Patriarch Jiang's voice directly pulled her whole thoughts back.

The corner of her lips couldn't help twitching.

When...she became his girlfriend?

Rong Ye still maintained an elegant smile.

"There are so many people with the surname Gu in the world, but they can't all be from the same family, right?"

Hearing this, Patriarch Jiang and Patriarch Shen calmed down a little, and the two elders also felt relieved.

Since Rong Ye said that, they must not be close relatives.

Otherwise... They really have to worry for a long time.

With such an interruption, Elder Jiang forgot what he thought Gu Ci's face looked familiar to him earlier.

Patriarch Xia said at this time, "Since it's not the Gu family, then what qualifications does it have to participate in this competition?"

The final results of the three-year big competition not only represent the strength of the outstanding juniors of each family, but at the same time, it is also related to the resource allocation of each family in the next three years.

The reason why he took the initiative to cancel the results of that round earlier was because Patriarch Xia knew that if he didn’t say that, the other families might join forces to make their Xia family fall into a more unfavorable situation, so it’s better for him to do it. end this thing.

That was an act of desperation.

But no matter what, Patriarch Xia will never let the Xia family lose the top three rankings!

Now, the biggest thing in front of him, and the easiest thing to deal with, is the Gu family with only one person left.

As long as the Gu family is eliminated, the other families other than the Shen family and the Jiang family are nothing more than insignificant ants. He has a way to keep the Xia family in the top three.
