When Gu Chen met Bai Yuan for the first time, it was just an intelligent innate monster in the taboo forest.
After that, the man and the ape depended on each other for life, and they survived many difficulties together, and the talent displayed by the white ape became more and more extraordinary.
Gu Chen gradually realized that the little guy's blood is not simple, and he may have a lot of background.
It's just that the little guy grew up in the taboo forest since he was a child, and Gu Chen asked about his life experience, but he himself didn't know anything about it in a daze.
A few days ago, the demon king said that people were not allowed to touch the white ape. He knew about it, but today he led a group of demons to protect him, and it was more obviously for the white ape.
The demon king treats the white ape so differently, if it's just because they belong to the demon clan, it really can't be justified.
Therefore, Gu Chen boldly guessed that the demon king might know the origin of the white ape!
Sun Jinming was not surprised to hear Gu Chen's question, but shook his head slowly.
"This matter is very complicated, my old grandson can tell you, even I can't give you an accurate answer."
"You just need to know that this little guy is very special. Since it chooses to be by your side, you should treat it well."
"If one day you really want to know more, go to Nanling."
Sun Jinming said that he didn't say anything, Gu Chen thought for a moment, and nodded without further questioning.
Anyway, no matter what, he already regarded the white ape as a relative, and the reason why he asked this question was just to know whether it had any family members alive.
Gu Chen left the demon king's residence, and just walked out of the woods, a young man in front of him stood with his sword in his arms, with a dull expression, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"It seems that you can hide from the Demon King's battle, but you can't hide from Brother Qi."
Gu Chen smiled freely.
"Let's do it!"
Qi Zeyan drew his sword out of its sheath, with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.
Previously, when Gu Chen defeated six kings with one blow, he really wanted to fight, but there were too many people at that time, and he was afraid of getting in the way.
"Okay, in order to thank Brother Qi, I will do my best."
Gu Chen looked serious, and did not refuse Qi Zeyan's request.
This time he broke through the king realm, Qi Zeyan helped him a lot, and he also admired the other party's character.
Treating such a persistent swordsman, Gu Chen has no reason to avoid the battle, let alone let himself go, that is an insult to the swordsman!
He flipped his hands over, and the Whale Slaying Knife appeared in his hands.
This black knife weighing 20 million catties felt very inflexible in the hand before, but now, it is much easier.
With this breakthrough in cultivation, the physical body was reborn again. Gu Chen's unburned golden body already weighed ninety million catties in one arm in terms of strength.
The physical strength of 90 million catties can be called astonishing, combined with the whale-slaying knife, the destructive power is incalculable...
One holds a sword and the other holds a knife.
The wind blows, and the figures of the two sides pass by each other!
After a while, Gu Chen strode away, Qi Zeyan was lying on the ground with his feet up in the air, his hands were trembling due to excessive force, and the sword had already been broken.
"too strong……"
Qi Zeyan murmured, he actually already knew the result of this battle, but with his character, no matter how strong the opponent is, he still has to give it a try.
He closed his eyes and was not discouraged. Although the battle was a disastrous defeat, he also had some unexpected gains.
"What a terrible guy. If you don't work hard, you might be overtaken by him next time."
On the way to leave, Gu Chen said with emotion that although he won, Qi Zeyan was deeply touched by his pure pursuit of swordsmanship and regarded him as a respectable opponent.
At the gate of Zhenwu Academy, Qinglin Shashen sat on the unicorn, and had been waiting for Gu Chen for a long time.
"Let's go, go back to the Heavenly Palace!"
As soon as Gu Chen arrived, the divine horse's unicorn roared up to the sky, flew all four hooves, and rose into the sky.
Amidst the roar of the holy beast, Gu Chen and Qinglin Shashen left, and a large number of teachers and students in Zhenwu Academy saw this scene.
"The scourge is finally gone."
Mu Ziyu looked at Gu Chen's back and murmured, feeling a little lost in his heart for some reason.
Ye Qingshuang stared at the sky for a long time, waited until Gu Chen's back completely disappeared, turned and left.
"Whether you are him or not, I, Ye Qingshuang, will never lose to you..."
She knew that what would meet her next would be a more severe practice, and only in this way would she not be completely thrown away by that person.
...
High in the sky, Qinglin Shashen and Gu Chen flew side by side, and the two chatted.
"Senior, it's time to tell me the benefits of the Zhuzi banquet. You seem to support me to participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens of the middle-earth royal family." Gu Chen asked.
"The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony of the Chinese royal family is held only once every five years. At that time, there will be a banquet for officials and scholars. Only a very small number of young talents can be qualified for this banquet."
"The Zhuzi Banquet itself is nothing special, it is nothing more than a banquet, but those who have obtained this qualification will have the opportunity to enter the secret land of Wanlong with the descendants of the royal family at the ceremony."
Qinglin Shashen explained.
"Mystery of Wanlong? What kind of place is that, a secret realm?" Gu Chen asked curiously.
"Strictly speaking, it's not a secret realm, it's a half-real, half-illusory place. Have you ever heard of the Kunlun Mirror?"
Gu Chen nodded, "I read in the book that the Kunlun mirror is the treasure of the imperial family in China. It is said that it was brought out by the founding emperor from the notorious Kunlun Ruins."
"That's right, it seems that your stay at Zhenwu Academy for the past two months has not been in vain."
Qinglin Killing God nodded, "The Mystic Land of Wanlong is a strange world in the Kunlun mirror. For example, you were pulled into the mysterious world by the time stone, right? The Mystical Land of Wanlong is similar to that. There are huge benefits to be gained.”
Gu Chen suddenly realized, in this way, the emperor's reward is too generous!
"Senior, the Kunlun Mirror is a treasure of the royal family, so the secret place of ten thousand dragons is very important to the royal family, right? Why are you giving me such a big reward for a heavenly killer?"
This matter is a bit strange, even if he deserved the emperor's reward in this grand event, the royal family doesn't need to be so bloody, right?
What's more, in his own opinion, this emperor's reward was an unexpected joy.
"Hey, I've always heard that the prince of the Chinese royal family is gentle and humble, and not good at maneuvering, but judging from his boldness in awarding you the emperor's reward this time, he is not as easy to deal with as the rumors say."
Qinglin Killing God smiled.
"Chen Gu, do you know why I asked you to accept this generous reward?"
"Isn't it because this reward is so precious that it would be a pity to miss it?"
Gu Chen pondered.
"This is also the reason, but the most important reason is that God asked me to do this!"
"God's idea?"
Gu Chen's eyes froze.
"The Emperor of Heaven saw you this time not only because you have just been promoted to Daozi, but also because he has something more important to tell you, so you should be mentally prepared."
Qinglin Shashen reminded that the two of them had already entered the Tianting Qingzhou sub-helm while speaking.
