The battle was quickly over.
After the killer who asked about the sixth heaven fell, the middle-aged woman and the young man also failed to escape.
Of the five monks who asked about the realm, only the head of the Yin Beast survived, but he was sealed by the bully Zhensuo.
The tree fell and the monkeys scattered, and a large number of rogues saw that there was nothing to be done, and wanted to flee far away.
However, they have already seen Gu Chen's true strength, how can Gu Chen let them leave smoothly?
Needless to say, Gu Chenduo, Wu Li frantically suppressed the surviving rogues, and they were vulnerable to the loss of Daoist monks. The scene was nothing but a bloody massacre.
The shadow guard who survived by luck saw five emperors fall one after another in a short period of time, and his heart was greatly shocked, but more of it was the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe.
He helped clean up a battlefield until the entire starry sky was silent, except for the corpses all over the floor, only he, Gu Chen, Wu Li and the captive Yin Beast Master were left.
"Thank you Master Gu for saving your life!"
After the war, the shadow guard saluted Gu Chen immediately, feeling very uneasy.
Before today, his impression of Mr. Gu was limited to such words as "defeated and imprisoned star", "a lost dog".
Because of these, to be honest, he was actually a little contemptuous and negligent in his heart before.
However, the battle just now completely overturned his original imagination, and made him, who had developed a sense of smell in the film department for many years, realize that this Mr. Gu has been hiding his strength!
Because Mr. Gu hid his strength, he was lucky enough to escape today, but also because his real strength was broken, his heart is a little bit drummed now, Mr. Gu will not kill people to silence him, will he?
In addition, even if Mr. Gu didn't kill him, he would feel very heavy in his heart when he thought of the person who arranged this killing, and felt that his future was bleak.
"There will be an ambush on the road, you guys already knew about it, right?"
Gu Chen looked at the shadow guard and asked coldly.
In this moment, he has sorted out the whole idea of the matter, but it needs to be verified.
"The few of us were worried, but we didn't expect that Mr. Peng even dared to kill Mr. Gu. What he did was so terrific."
The shadow guard was surprised, and then answered truthfully with a wry smile.
"Master Gu, this person is more likely to be a spy sent by Peng Fu."
Wu Li came over at this time, with bad eyes.
The route back to Xingjun was arranged by Peng Fu, and this shadow guard belonged to Peng Fu. Even if a few of his companions died in the previous explosion, it would not prove his innocence.
"No, Mr. Gu, I was also persecuted!"
Feeling Wuli's murderous aura, the shadow guard panicked, and hurriedly explained.
Gu Chen waved his hand, signaling him to shut up. "Whether you are innocent or not I have my own opinion, just answer my question honestly."
The shadow guard shut up immediately, panicking in his heart.
"Why did Peng Fu kill you?" Gu Chen asked first.
When he was still in the Star Sea Forest, he noticed that several shadow guards were restless, as if there was a sign.
And when the spaceship exploded, his consciousness also noticed that the source of the explosion was another shadow guard.
The shadow guard was cast with a vicious spell, and his body exploded on the way, directly implicating the entire spaceship.
The person in front of him reacted quickly enough at the time, and his cultivation base was not bad, so he escaped by luck.
Because he witnessed the other party's narrow escape, Gu Chen didn't think that everything before was a fake, he was Peng Fu's spy.
So, here comes the crux of the problem, why did Peng Fu want to kill him and several shadow guards together?
Hearing Gu Chen's tone, the shadow guard seemed to trust him, and he was relieved a lot. Now he hated Peng Fu deeply, so he couldn't help but explain it in detail.
"The few of us didn't make any mistakes. If we say we made any mistakes, we know too much."
"Master Gu was sent to rescue Mr. Peng, so he must have known about Mr. Peng's disappearance. In fact, the few of us were arrested together with Mr. Peng."
Gu Chen's eyes narrowed for a moment, the information given to him by the film department only said that Peng Fu was missing, and did not mention other shadow guards.
This may be because the film department felt that these shadow guards were too low-level to be relevant, or it may be that they did not know that several shadow guards were with Peng Fu at that time, so they did not investigate their whereabouts in detail.
"Tangtang Tianying, who caught him?" Wu Li frowned next to him.
"It's Xuanwu at the town boundary. Master Peng passed by the Longevity Realm at that time, and he sensed something. He called us to investigate the whereabouts of Xuanwu at the town boundary."
"Unexpectedly, that Xuanwu was so cunning that he noticed this, set up a trap to catch us and Mr. Peng, and imprisoned him in the forest of stars."
"After that, we were imprisoned for several months, and the Xuanwu didn't kill us, but often chatted with Mr. Peng privately."
"Until not long ago, all of us were suddenly released. We privately speculated that Mr. Peng had reached a deal with that Xuanwu."
Gu Chen listened carefully, and finally understood where Peng Fu had been all this time.
"After we were released, we soon received news that the headquarters sent you, Mr. Gu. Mr. Peng was quite displeased when he found out, so he sent us to the entrance of the film department in the Longevity World."
"Master Peng asked us to keep silent about the previous imprisonment, and also asked us to send a message to Mr. Gu to hand over the task and return to Xingjun."
"Besides, he wants us to cut off all the intelligence channels of Mr. Gu."
"We didn't dare to disobey, and we did everything Master Peng asked, but we still had a lot of doubts in our hearts."
"Master Peng's actions have become more and more weird. Just a few days ago, he even asked us to destroy all the connections between Tangkou and the headquarters."
"These things violated the regulations of the headquarters of the film department. We had some speculations in our hearts, so when Mr. Peng asked us to escort Mr. Gu back to Xingjun, we felt very uneasy."
When the shadow guard said this, hatred flashed in his eyes. "We originally thought that with Mr. Gu around, Mr. Peng would not do anything wrong. As long as we leave the Longevity World, we should be safe."
"Who would have thought, he has already secretly moved his hands and feet to kill us all!"
The few people who died were brothers who were born and died, so the surviving shadow guard inevitably hated Peng Fu deeply.
Although he tried his best to conceal this hatred, Gu Chen was still keenly aware of it.
Wu Li listened to the whole ins and outs, and said to Gu Chen in surprise. "Master Gu, Peng Fu has betrayed Xingjun County?"
Gu Chen was silent, but he had already affirmed the answer in his heart.
"I don't understand why Mr. Peng did this. Could it be that he was threatened by Xuanwu at the end of the town?"
The shadow guard gritted his teeth and said, what a giant Xingjun is, and Peng Fu is one of the shadows of the shadow department, with a high position and authority, there is really no reason to rebel.
He actually knew very little about the whole matter, and Gu Chen knew the deeper reason, so he was not surprised.
