The phoenix on the bright and eye-catching flag has full wings and a strong body, as if it can break free from the shackles of the flag and fly into the sky at any time. On the head of the phoenix, a pair of sharp eyes stare forward, revealing a kind of majesty and domineering, which makes people feel awe.

There is no doubt that this flag represents the powerful Gu family. And this luxurious spaceship is also a symbol of the Gu family's strength and status.

The other spaceships behind the Gu family spaceship were the spaceships that the participants were riding on this time. They were all high-level magical instruments. Obviously, the Gu family had a famous and powerful instrument refiner.

At this moment, in front of each spaceship, there was a waiter wearing the Gu family's uniform robe checking the queue numbers.

Many practitioners boarded the ship one after another according to the numbers they registered.

In the top-floor lobby of the Gu family's luxurious spaceship, the two heads of the Gu family were sitting.

Among them, Gu Ye, the head of the Gu family, had a solemn expression on his face. He was not at ease at the moment. He was afraid that the clues he got this time would be in vain again. Last time, after finding out where the Phoenix Clan was, he immediately organized a large number of people to go there, but they returned empty-handed again.

Fortunately, three years later, news finally came from the Northern Territory, and he immediately took action.

During the long years when he was the head of the family, he always kept his mission in mind and never gave up trying to find out the whereabouts of the Phoenix Clan. However, he went to various places pointed by clues again and again with hope, but he was always disappointed and came up empty-handed. This experience was so numerous that it almost made him feel fear and psychological trauma.

The main reason is that every time you reach the place where the clues are, it is a "good" place for life and death. Not only are there heavy casualties, but it also consumes a lot of resources.

Even though he failed every time, he had to continue to take care of his family.

Over the years, his Gu family has spent everything they have and paid an inestimable price to find the legendary Phoenix Clan. They have continuously invested manpower, material resources, and financial resources, but have gained very little.

But even so, they had no intention of backing down, because this was the mission and responsibility passed down from generation to generation in the Gu family.

This responsibility weighs heavily on the hearts of every member of the Gu family. No matter how rough and difficult the road ahead is, even if it is full of thorns and obstacles, they will move forward without hesitation, just for the original promise.

Gu Chengzhu, the second brother of Gu Patriarch, Gu Nuo, naturally knew the responsibility of his elder brother, and he also spared no effort to help his elder brother. Seeing that he was in a bad mood, he hurriedly tried to comfort him.

"Brother, don't worry. There will be no problem with the information this time. You can imagine that the hint on the family secret scroll just happened to be abnormal, and the clue information that came at the same time must be related to each other, so don't worry, brother."

"Second brother, I hope so. But let Xianzhi not go. Let Huaizhi take Lianzhi with him. Lianzhi is not a child anymore, it would be good for him to learn more from his big brother," Gu Ye had his reasons for saying this.

His second brother only had two children, Xianzhi and Lingzhi, and he couldn't let his second brother lose a child again. Ten years ago, it was Gu Hengzhi who led the team to find the Phoenix Clan, but Gu Hengzhi didn't come back. Eight years ago, it was his eldest niece Gu Lianzhi who led the team, but she didn't come back either.

My second brother has four children, but two are missing. This time, he would not let Xianzhi go again no matter what.

Xianzhi is the young city lord and will take over the position of city lord in the future, so he must not make any mistakes.

"Brother, Xianzhi is your elder brother, he should go..."

"Okay, stop talking. Let Huaizhi and Lianzhi go. Didn't you say that the news this time is correct? Then there's nothing to worry about. Let them go."

At this moment, a tall and slender figure slowly walked in from the door. This person was Gu Huaizhi, who was wearing a moon-white long gown, with a handsome figure, a resolute face, and a heroic look between his eyebrows.

After entering the house, Gu Huaizhi first bowed slightly to his father who was sitting at the first seat, then turned to look at his second uncle who was sitting beside him and saluted, then smiled and said,

"Dad, Second Uncle, everything is ready, and those people have started to board the ship. We are about to set off, Dad, you and Second Uncle should go back first."

"Well, Huaizhi, where is Lianzhi? Where did he go? When you are out, you should remind him to be more careful and not to be willful or reckless. Also, you should pay attention to safety. Remember, life comes first in any situation. Dad is waiting for you to come back safely."

"Dad, don't worry. I know. I will also take good care of my third brother. Don't worry. I will definitely complete the task."

"Well, Huaizhi has grown up and can handle things on his own. Dad believes in you. Also, remember one thing, once you confirm that it is the Phoenix Clan's territory, it is definitely dangerous there. So, don't rush forward, just remember the location and route, and Dad will naturally take care of the rest. And this information must not be leaked to anyone."

"Dad, I know." Gu Huaizhi nodded heavily.

He knew that the Gu family had paid a great price for that promise, and he thought that the promise should end with him. From now on, the Gu family would no longer have to carry that heavy yoke and would be relieved.

"Well done. Second uncle is waiting for your triumphant return." City Lord Gu patted his nephew who was half a head taller than him. He felt very pleased that the sons of the Gu family were capable of taking on responsibilities.

"You must stay safe. Big brother, let's not delay Huaizhi any longer. Let's go back together."

"Well, let's go." The head of the Gu family followed his second brother and left with a worried look on his face.

After seeing his father and second uncle off, Gu Huaizhi picked up the topographic map of the Snowy Mountains and began to study it.

Holding the topographic map in his hand, Gu Huaizhi fell into deep thought.

In fact, he only learned about the Gu family's promise recently.

At that time, he knew that his ancestors had given the Gu family such a big responsibility, and he was unhappy. Especially when he learned that his eldest brother and eldest sister died because of this matter.

For this promise, the Gu family has lost countless lives over the past ten million years. He didn't know it before, and just thought it was bad luck. But the elder brother and sister were the brothers and sisters who grew up with him.

There were six cousins ​​among them, and they had a very close relationship with each other. When they learned that their eldest brother and sister had died, they were so sad.

But now he was told that his elder brother and elder sister died because of the so-called promise of the Gu family. He was unwilling to accept it and felt that his elder brother and elder sister's death was not worth it.

He was very resistant to this matter at the time and wanted to do something. The head of the Gu family may have seen his son's thoughts, so he took him to the study and told him the reason why the family was responsible.

After coming out of the study, Gu Huaizhi stayed in the inner room alone for an entire afternoon. After coming out, he went to the head of the Gu family and volunteered to be the leader of the treasure hunting team.

Patriarch Gu was very pleased that his son could think it through, so there was naturally no reason for him to refuse.
