Chapter 2175

On Dingkong Mountain, Gu Chen had just returned.

As soon as he arrived at Dingkong Mountain, Chen Shanming and many elders immediately came to greet him. Even Chen Daolin, who was in the dark and hadn't announced the news of his return to the outside world, walked out of his cave.

"Yunfei, what happened in Hongying Villa?"

Many elders asked eagerly and curiously.

After Chen Shanming and the Second Elder returned from Hongying Villa in advance, the Chen Clan began to prepare for the battle urgently. From top to bottom, they were ready to deal with the Mu Clan!

Who would have imagined that despite the intensive preparations here, the situation on the second mountain over there is getting weirder and weirder.

First, it was rumored that the people from Taiqi Palace had arrived at Hongying Villa, and then it was rumored that Jingsheng had died, and that a peerless demon had broken out from the forbidden area on the second mountain.

After that, the spies of various forces withdrew from the Second Mountain area one after another, further and further away, and a strange atmosphere began to pervade the entire Second Mountain Sea.

In this atmosphere, the conflict between the Chen Clan and the Mu Clan seemed unimportant. According to the spies, there was no sign of the Mu Clan mobilizing their troops!

With the identity and status of the elders of the Chen clan and the elite disciples, they have no way of knowing the truth about the second mountain, so they can only speculate wildly.

Now that Gu Chen is back, they naturally want to break the casserole and ask the end.

"Gu Chen, Zhang Hao has been in the ancient city of my Chen family for a few days, if he doesn't make a deal, he should be suspicious."

Before Gu Chen could answer the elders, Chen Daolin's voice came into his mind through the air.

After Chen Daolin's return, he has been living in his own cave. As for the news of his return, only a small number of important elders knew about it.

Hearing this, Gu Chen nodded from the air.

Zhang Hao's movements are fast, it seems that he can't wait to take away Death Qi.

Also, the cooperation with Taiqi Palace must be finalized as soon as possible.

"Excuse me, everyone."

Gu Chen didn't say much to the elders, and left immediately. Chen Daolin stepped out of Dingkong Mountain and was waiting for him at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing Yunfei's indifferent attitude, some elders couldn't help being disappointed, and even complained.

They are all aware of Yun Fei's Tianzong posture. It is said that even the Litian Sacred King is not his opponent. If the legend list is reopened, he will definitely be among the top three.

But no matter how powerful they are, they are considered elders after all, such negligence is somewhat displeasing!

"Okay, Yunfei is entangled in many things, so don't bother him. I will tell you what you can say, and what you can't. It's useless if you ask more."

Chen Wenfeng stood up, revealed his true face, and answered for Gu Chen.

He could see the careful thinking of these elders, and sighed secretly.

It would have been nice if Chen Yunfei was really Chen Yunfei, but it happened not.

On the surface, Gu Chen is just an elder of his Chen clan, but the actual situation is that he is an ally of the Chen clan!

And this ally is very unusual, he is no longer in a peer-to-peer situation, and now the one who directly contacts the other party is the ancestor!

No matter how good your allies are, they are not as fragrant as your own family members, and you must pay more attention to propriety when getting along.

However, he can't tell the elders directly. At this stage, Chen Yunfei's identity is still a secret and cannot be made public.

The only one who could understand Chen Wenfeng was Chen Shanming. The two knew that no matter how kind Gu Chen appeared on the surface, they couldn't be less respectful.

"Patriarch! You are really still alive!"

"I've had enough of that Chen Qinghe during the few years you've been away!"

When the elders saw the patriarch who thought he was dead, they all wept with joy, and in a blink of an eye, they forgot the little bit of unhappiness just now.

Gu Chen came to the foot of the mountain in a few steps, and then flew down to the ancient city of the Chen clan with Chen Daolin.

The two of them used blindfolds so that the monks in Dingkong Mountain and the ancient city could not see them.

"Does Wen Feng know your true identity?"

Chen Daolin asked on the way.

Gu Chen shook his head. "I haven't told him yet."

What Chen Daolin asked, of course, was the truth about Gu Chennai's Yaogu Dominance, and of course, the fewer people who know about this, the better.

"That's good. In the eyes of the world, it would be best for you to be Chen Yunfei, the young patriarch of my Chen Clan."

Chen Daolin nodded, not because he didn't trust his people, but because this matter was too sensitive.

He promised the third patriarch of the Ba Clan to be Gu Chen's guardian, so he had to make sure that he was safe.

In order to protect Gu Chen's identity from being exposed, he would not hesitate to sacrifice the entire Chen clan!

This kind of thinking may be difficult for ordinary people to understand, but at his level, the concept of blood relationship has actually become thinner.

What's more, as long as he is still alive, the Chen clan can be re-established at any time, and if the Ba clan rises again, it will be of great significance to him.

Those five masters were overwhelming the monks in the whole world. In his opinion, only Yaogu Hegemony had the ability to break the shackles.

"Young patriarch? That's fine, it's reasonable."

Gu Chen was slightly taken aback, and quickly understood what Chen Daolin meant.

Chen Yunfei's sharpness has been revealed, and with the rise of the Chen clan, it is destined to shine even brighter.

With his talent and strength, it would be strange not to be appointed as the future patriarch.

Even, he now has the prestige to be the patriarch, but there is no need for that.

"Did Zhang Hao come alone?"

Overlooking the ancient city of the Chen clan below, Gu Chen found that the ancient city was much busier than before.

In the past few years, Chen Qinghe's role as the patriarch was not without achievements. Because of his good relationship with the herdsmen, the herdsmen did not hinder the development of the Chen clan, which made the Chen clan grow stronger by absorbing the nutrients from the corpses of the Baqi Holy Land.

Today's Chen family is no longer poor and weak, and has the capital to expand abroad.

"I didn't sense the breath of other masters, it should be. Of course, it is also possible that the person in the dark is so strong that I can't even detect it."

Chen Daolin conservatively estimated that there are so many masters in Taiqi Palace, as a new Taoist ancestor, how can he dare to say that he has insight into everything.

"For such an important matter as trading the death energy of the Supreme Heavenly Venerable, let Zhang Hao come here alone. Can the people behind him rest assured?"

Gu Chen frowned slightly.

If Zhang Hao really came here alone, it means that the forces behind Zhang Hao obviously don't pay enough attention to them.

With the value of death energy, this is a bit of negligence.

"Dead Qi is good, but it's also a hot potato. Except for those inside the Tai Qi Palace, no one else dares to make a decision."

"What's more, what happened to Fang Yuan recently, the senior officials of Taiqi Palace are probably paying attention to the joy and anger of the masters, so it's not surprising that they don't have the intention to come here in person."

Chen Daolin guessed.

"It's a pity." Gu Chen sighed.

"What a pity?"

"I wanted to find out the identity of the person behind Zhang Hao. Is there any overlap between this person and Fang Yuan?"

Gu Chen said casually, Chen Daolin was thrilled to hear it.

"is it possible?"

"It's not impossible, Fang Yuan has colluded with the high-level officials in Taiqi Palace, and the people behind Zhang Hao have concealed the clues of the heart-shaped stone, and have been coveting the Dao technique."

"Whether it's the same person or an accomplice, it's not a good bird anyway."
