Seeing Gu Chen tell the other party's background in one go, the Yinlong Clan patriarch nodded slightly in surprise.
The Chen family's space-fixing technique is well-known. It is rumored that when it is used, it can even stop the energy surge and changes in the space, which indirectly makes many Taoism methods invalid or greatly reduced their power.
The invisibility technique he was good at when he fought against the opponent before failed, which led to a lot of time wasted.
"Your Excellency, I don't know who it is from the Chen family. I don't think it is an unknown person, right? I don't know why I broke into Luoshui Palace without authorization?"
Gu Chen looked at the middle-aged man and asked indifferently.
"You are Chen Yi, right? You should know why I came here."
The middle-aged man looked at the cross tattoo on the center of Gu Chen's eyebrows, recognized his identity, and answered calmly, without much awareness of being a prisoner.
Gu Chen frowned slightly when he heard the words, probably guessing the other party's intention.
At the beginning of Peiguo's establishment, he borrowed the identity of the Chen family by mistake. As his influence and fame grew, this incident inevitably alarmed the Chen family.
Chen Huandong came to the Chen clan before, he was a stunned young man who went out to practice, he asked him about the details, and then he was arrested, and he is still locked in the cell.
With the change of Dasheng's dynasty, Gu Chen knew that his fake identity as a child of the Chen clan could not be concealed after all, and the high-level officials of the Chen clan would come to him sooner or later.
He had already thought about the way to deal with it. At that time, as long as Dafang admitted that his identity was false, and then brought out the big prophet, the mastermind behind the scenes, no matter which force would be interested in him, he would not go to the bottom of it.
This is a feasible method. Even if the Chen family came to settle the score, as long as they admit their mistakes and hand over Chen Huandong, and then give some compensation, I believe the Chen family will not chase after them.
If the Chen family was justified and not forgiving, with his current power, he would have nothing to fear.
Everything that should be considered has been considered, but he didn't expect that the Chen family would come so soon, and they still appeared in a sneaking way, which made him a little uneasy.
You must know that Pei Chao was newly established. It should take some time before the matter was reported to the Chen Clan and the Chen Clan took action. The reaction would not be so fast. The other party might have already set their sights on him.
If he had caught his attention early in the morning, the Chen family hid in the dark and found some clues, which might be bad for him.
Dao Court envoys may arrive at any time recently, and the timing is already very sensitive. If the Chen family finds out some tricks about their identity, and then informs Dao Court, the consequences will be disastrous...
Uncertain whether the person in front of him has grasped some secrets, Gu Chen couldn't help but feel a killing intent in his heart.
However, just killing the other party does not mean that the hidden danger is eliminated. God knows if there are other monks from the Chen family in Peidu!
"Put him in a cell, and I will interrogate him myself."
For the sake of caution, Gu Chen didn't ask any more questions, and asked several elders to take the middle-aged man into the prison of Luoshui Palace.
In the separate cell, after all the idlers were dismissed, Gu Chen had a private conversation with the middle-aged man.
"Your Excellency, you are here to accuse me of impersonating a child of the Chen family?"
With no one else around, Gu Chen asked casually, intending to find out how much the other party secretly knew about him.
"The person who just fought against me is really Wuwang Pavilion's killer?"
The middle-aged man was not in a hurry to answer, but asked with flickering eyes, as if he had guessed something from the fight with the patriarch of the Yinlong Clan.
Gu Chen couldn't help squinting his eyes, if the middle-aged man guessed the real identity of the patriarch of the Yinlong Clan, then things would be troublesome.
The fact that the Yinlong clan formed an alliance with him cannot be spread for the time being, and this middle-aged man has another reason for his death.
"Your Excellency must have investigated me before coming here. I am the owner of the Wuwang Pavilion. Naturally, this Luoshui Palace is heavily guarded and it is not so easy to break into." Gu Chen replied.
"I have come into contact with the killer of Wuwang Pavilion, and his strength doesn't seem to be that high."
The middle-aged man said depressedly, he had made sufficient preparations before sneaking into Luoshui Palace, thinking that he could hide from the eyes of all Wuwang Pavilion killers, but unexpectedly he fell.
"That can only show that Your Excellency has underestimated my Wuwang Pavilion. Before the demise of Dasheng, who would have thought that Wuwang Pavilion could overthrow the entire dynasty?"
Gu Chen said lightly, the middle-aged man was speechless when he heard that Wuwang Pavilion was really in the limelight during this period, maybe he really underestimated it.
"If your Excellency came here to inquire about the crime, you can visit the door openly. Why bother to hide your head and shrink your tail, so that you will be in prison?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Come on openly and honestly? The last time my descendants of the Chen clan came to visit, what happened? Dare I ask this fellow Daoist Chen whose real surname is Chen, is the ineffective descendant of my clan still alive?"
The middle-aged man snorted and said, he is not the young juniors of the clan who went out to experience, he is frizzy, and he came to the door to question the teacher without even knowing the details of the other party, so that his life and death are still unknown.
"It turns out that your Excellency already knew about this."
Gu Chen's heart sank, and he was even more sure that the other party didn't sneak into Luoshui Palace temporarily, and he knew something about himself before.
Presumably, Chen Huandong's disappearance caught the attention of the senior management of the Chen family. I don't know how many channels and manpower the Chen family used to investigate themselves!
Chen Huandong was taken down by him before he went to Beijing to participate in the test of the old Shenghuang. If the Chen family had sent people to investigate this matter at that time, then they might know much more than they imagined...
"If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing. Daoist friend pretends to be a child of my Chen clan, and has been doing well in Dasheng here. Have you ever thought about how to tell him when the envoy of Pu Dao Court comes that day? explain?"
"Dao Ting is not stupid. They can also find out the things that my Chen family can find out, and they will only find out more."
The middle-aged man looked pointed, and seemed to have caught Gu Chen's handle.
"If you know something, you can directly report it to Tianpu Taoist Court. That is a great achievement. Why would you sneak into my Luoshui Palace and take such a big risk?"
Gu Chen responded calmly, he wasn't sure what the other party knew, or he might just be putting on airs so that he wouldn't dare to kill him.
This possibility exists. If the other party really knows a lot of secrets, it is unlikely to fall into the hands of the patriarch of the Yinlong clan.
"The water in Luoshui Palace is so deep, without conclusive evidence, how dare I go to the Taoist Court to complain?" The middle-aged man shook his head.
"So you sneaked into Luoshui Palace to find evidence? I don't know what kind of evidence you are looking for?"
"If I say so, will you let me go? I'm not stupid." The middle-aged man sneered.
"Your Excellency is serious. I made a mistake in pretending to be my identity. If the misunderstanding is cleared up, I will naturally let you go."
Gu Chen said imperceptibly, he wasn't sure if the other party really knew anything, if he followed his words, it would be tantamount to calling himself out.
