Chapter 1709

Everyone shared the information they collected, and most of them were optimistic about the current situation in the Taoist world.

Gu Chen listened to everyone's opinions, most of the time his face was contemplative, and occasionally his eyes flashed with puzzlement.

The Nine Great Courts controlled the Dao Principle of Hongmeng. From Gu Chen's point of view, this was equivalent to being recognized by the Chaos Sea and mastering the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor.

In this case, the Nine Dao Court possesses absolute strength, why should they indulge the separatism of the entire Hongmeng Dao Realm?

In Gu Chen's view, a unified Dao world is definitely more conducive to the development of civilization, and the practice of the Nine Dao Courts is against common sense, unless there are some deep-seated reasons behind it...

After much deliberation, he couldn't figure it out, Gu Chen laughed dumbfounded, and simply forgot about it.

He has just entered the Dao world, and he has no understanding of the various forces, so what's the use of thinking about it?

As he gradually understands the world, sooner or later the truth will come to light.

Everyone continued to communicate, and Gu Chen noticed that Fang Shijie in the crowd was silent, with occasional hesitation on his face.

"Shijie, what's the matter?" Gu Chen asked curiously.

Fang Shijie seemed to be pulled back from his thoughts by Gu Chen's words, and after a serious look, he bowed solemnly.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, there is something that I have not told you."

As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent and looked at him in surprise.

"What's the matter?" Gu Chen was also quite surprised.

"A hundred years ago, my father asked me to participate in the battle of the Chaos All Souls List. In fact, he secretly made arrangements for my future after entering the world."

Fang Shijie's words greatly aroused everyone's interest, Feng Yaya said casually: "Although the Fang family has some connections with Hongmeng Taoist world, how long ago did that happen, your father still has such ability?"

Fang Shijie showed a wry smile at the corner of his mouth: "When our Fang family was expelled from the lower realm endless years ago, the ancestors of the Fang family were not reconciled and focused on rebuilding the lintel. Before the lower realm, in order to leave a hope for future generations, they even secretly did made some arrangements."

"Oh?"

Gu Chen narrowed his eyes, completely attracted by these words.

"My father told me these things. Before going to the Jiehai Ferry a hundred years ago, my father gave me a token. After entering the Dao Realm, I will look for opportunities to seek refuge in Peichaoluomen."

As Fang Shijie said, he solemnly took out something from his arms, and handed it to Gu Chen with both hands.

This is an antique bronze mirror, Gu Chen looked at it for a while, but didn't take it.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Fang Shijie explained embarrassingly: "This matter should have been explained to His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven before entering the Taoist world. However, after a long time, the ancestors may not still be behind, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Chen shook his head. "You misunderstood, I don't care about this."

Fang Shijie obviously kept his secrets in this matter. Before crossing the sea, he handed over the Fang family's unique knowledge, but did not mention the keepsake.

Gu Chen knew how careful he was, but he also understood that it was human nature.

Although he raised Fang Shijie in the past hundred years, it was not because of kindness, but because of Fang Yuan's existence.

Fang Shijie also knew this in his heart, so he naturally worried that he would be killed by him after losing his use value.

Handing over the Fang family's inheritance is a dangerous move, Gu Chen originally just wanted to get a glimpse of the mystery of the Fang family's unique skills, so as to find a way to deal with Fang Yuan.

Fang Shijie was very smart. He was afraid that after handing over the inheritance, it would be useless, and Gu Chen would regret not taking him on board, so he concealed the token.

In this way, if he regrets after getting the Fang family's secret education, he can still use the token as a bargaining chip.

And if he is lucky enough to get on the boat and arrive at Jiehai, he still has two choices as to how to deal with the token.

One is to conceal this matter, and find an opportunity to leave Gu Chen after arriving in the Dao Realm, and go to find the opportunity left by the ancestors by himself.

The second is to tell the whole story like this, Fang Shijie obviously chose the latter.

Since he chose the latter, Gu Chen will not care about his little thoughts.

"The token was left by your father, and the chance also belongs to your Fang family. What do you want me to do with this token?"

Seeing Fang Shijie's nervous face, Gu Chen explained with a smile.

Fang Shijie was moved for a while. After entering the Dao Realm, he had been struggling in his heart whether to tell Gu Chen about it. On the one hand, he was worried that he would guard against him and even turn his face against him. On the other hand, he did have his own little thoughts.

He carried his father's last wish and the Fang family's hope on his shoulders. If he had the opportunity to make the Fang family flourish in his own hands, how could he be willing to hand over the opportunity to others?

What he was worried about was that Gu Chen would steal his chance, but after thinking twice, he decided to tell Gu Chen about it.

Firstly, it is very difficult for him to survive alone in the Dao Realm by himself, and it is hard to say whether he will find a chance.

Secondly, he witnessed Gu Chen suppressing the dark turmoil by himself, and he had inexplicable confidence in him, believing that he would definitely help him avenge Fang Yuan.

He thought about it for many days, and decided to tell the whole story today. In fact, he was already prepared to be scolded by Gu Chen, and even lose the opportunity of the Fang family.

However, what I didn't expect was that Gu Chen didn't care about it at all, and let himself keep the token.

Fang Shijie looked at his frankness, his whole face blushed, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

It was he who judged the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, underestimated Gu Chen, and also belittled himself!

"His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven is magnanimous, making his subordinates ashamed."

Fang Shijie withdrew his hand, clutching the ancient mirror tightly, with mixed emotions.

"I've already come to the Dao Realm, so don't call me His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor anymore. You can call me whatever they call me."

"Also, since you are with me, you are all brothers, so you don't have to be so restrained, and you don't have to think too much."

Gu Chen said calmly.

"Understood, leader!"

Fang Shijie nodded emphatically, the burden in his heart for many days was finally gone.

Everyone quickly started talking about the token of the Fang family.

"Peichao Luomen, does this Peichao have anything to do with this Peiguo?" Wuming guessed.

Pei Chao, Pei Guo, sounds too much like the same thing.

"I doubt this too. If so, then Luomen shouldn't be too far away."

Fang Shijie said excitedly that he was full of expectations for the arrangement of his ancestors, and wished he could go to Naluomen immediately.

"This Luomen should be a sect. After such a long time, the arrangement left by the ancestors of the Fang family may not be fulfilled."

"This matter should not be rushed. According to our original agreement, we should first settle in this city and get familiar with the situation of adapting to the Dao world."

Gu Chen thought about it, and everyone agreed with this cautious approach. Even though Fang Shijie was looking forward to it, he knew that there was no rush.

So everyone stayed in the city as foreigners, blended into the lives of the common people in the city, and solved the problem of acclimatization.
