Letting Gu Yinghua go was just a piece of cake for Su Chen.

After all, there are many connections to this matter, and the person behind it has not been found. Killing him will not help the matter. The Witch God Cult and the noble clan will definitely think of other ways, and they will not be careful when the time comes.

In tonight's operation, many disciples of the Wushen Cult were killed. The other party will definitely be alert and will be silent for a period of time.

It might be even harder to find the leader of the Witch God.

Keeping Gu Yinghua has more advantages than disadvantages.

Moreover, Su Chen did have some appreciation for this person and could give him a chance and a stage to prove himself.

Before leaving, for safety reasons, Su Chen had left a magic mark on Gu Yinghua.

It's not that I suspect he lied.

Rather, they were worried that the members of the Wushen Cult would suffer this time, and if he escaped, it would be difficult for the nobles and the Wushen Cult to explain. The mark was left to prevent him from dying suddenly on the way.

Although in order to show sincerity, Gu Yinghua had already told him the place where he obtained the jade talisman.

But after all, it was agreed to give him one year.

It would be best not to die before he completes what he has left unfinished.

"Master! These guys have poisonous insects on their bodies. They are very difficult to deal with. They are a bit like the disciples of the Witch God Sect in the south. But fortunately, the brothers were well prepared and these guys were all captured!"

Su Chen returned to the place where the ruined temple was.

The battle here is also over.

Zhang Rong stepped forward with excitement on his face to report.

It is a great achievement to capture so many hidden disciples of the Witch God Sect from the imperial capital, people from the enemy country, and sneak into the imperial capital to plot evil.

It happened that the former commander Liang Shi had died, and the position of commander became vacant again.

He has a good chance of being promoted this time and inheriting his father's position.

I have to say that both father and son seem to have a connection with the Wushen Cult.

Back then, Zhang Mingyuan was promoted to commander of the City Guards because of his meritorious service in arresting the previous leader of the Wushen Cult. Zhang Rong is expected to follow this path now.

This Wushen Cult is simply their family’s lucky star.

Of course, the biggest lucky star is the poster. Without the poster's guidance and guidance, they would not even be able to touch the hair of the Witch God Sect, let alone make meritorious deeds.

"But it's a pity that many of these people died during the battle because the Gu worms in their bodies were activated, and the remaining people also became dementia. It seems that their brains were severely injured. I'm afraid it's difficult to find out.

what."

Zhang Rong said with some regret.

When Su Chen heard this, he frowned slightly. This voodoo was really vicious. Once it attacked, it could kill people and silence them.

He asked again about Yin Yi.

Zhang Rong shook his head. She was seriously injured because she was attacked by other Wushen Cult disciples at the first time. Later, she was attacked by poisonous insects, and she was no longer able to be saved.

Su Chen didn't pay much attention.

Although Yin Yi was somewhat pretty, she actually didn't have a close relationship with him. Apart from seducing him once, they had known each other for only a few days, so let's just die.

It's just that I have to carefully select the person to be the shopkeeper of Qingyi House.

Fortunately, Taohong can still host it behind the scenes, so it won't have much impact in a short period of time.

"Besides, there is one more thing that the poster may be interested in, so I made my own decision."

At this time, Zhang Rong secretly took out a transparent glass bottle from his arms. This thing is a rare thing.

It was originally used by him to hold some kind of portable spices, but now it was poured clean, and there was a strange insect covered in blood lying inside.

"The poisonous worms in the Witch God Cult that were shot before were not awakened. When my subordinates saw that this one was still alive, they found a way to dig it out. Maybe the poster can do some research?"

"You are quite courageous. You dare to touch such a thing."

Su Chen turned his head and glanced at him. Don't tell me, Zhang Rong is quite capable.

Although he disdained the Gu worms of the Witch God Cult, they did have some unique features. Since they had living bodies, it would be a good idea to take them back and study them.

At the very least, I can increase my understanding of Gu insects so that I can deal with the new leader of the Witch God who is hiding in the dark in the future.

"Take it, there is a Gui Yuan Pill inside, as well as some healing pills and Qi and Blood Pills. Share them with your trusted brothers. Thank you for your hard work."

After handling these matters, Su Chen was too lazy to take care of the remaining matters, believing that Zhang Rong could handle them properly.

So he set off and returned to the city.

By this time it was getting dark.

Su Chen changed into regular clothes and walked on the street.

The Imperial Capital is a little cooler in the early morning, but the hard-working vendors have already gotten up and started their busy day.

Su Chen followed his memory and came to the douhua shop where he often ate.

It turned out that the boss had been replaced.

I heard that the "Tofu Xishi" who still had the charm more than 20 years ago had taken her daughter and grandson to the countryside to spend her old age, so the store was sold to others.

The new boss is also a woman, young and beautiful, and is no less impressive than Tofu Xishi back then.

But for some reason, Su Chen took a few bites, but still felt that the taste was not right.

Maybe it's because I'm older.

It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad.

Just because I'm used to it.

It's a pity that the salted bean curd made back then will probably never be eaten again in the future.

He took a few sips, then put down his spoon, put down a piece of broken silver, and was about to leave.

At this moment.

At the gate of the city, there was suddenly the sound of horse hooves. Looking up, he saw several sergeants escorting a man wearing the uniform of a Southern Barbarian envoy, quickly entering the city.

"An envoy from the Southern Barbarians?"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.

This year's tribute period has passed. Under normal circumstances, the Southern Barbarians would not send envoys to Beijing. The arrival at this time may be related to the plans of the Witch God Sect.

Su Chen just raided the Wushen Cult's spies last night. The news has not yet spread, and it is impossible for the Southern Barbarians to know about it.

Now that the envoy has arrived in Beijing, it cannot be changed.

In other words, their plan may go ahead as scheduled?

"Ignore all this, let's go back and ask someone to find out what happened when the Nanman envoys came to Beijing, and then we can make further calculations."

Su Chen shook his head.

This matter has already delayed him a lot of time, and it is impossible for him to focus all his energy on it.

No matter at any time, practicing and improving one's own strength is the top priority.

"Next, I will try my best to stay in the palace city. No matter what method the people of the Witch God Sect try to use, as long as I am in the palace, they will not be able to hurt Emperor Jin."

Thinking room.

Su Chen has already left and returned to the palace.

Everything in Kuiyuan is still the same. Although Li Yuan is a bit timid and timid, he is still diligent and steady in his work, and Su Chen doesn't need to worry too much.

You can have more energy to practice and improve yourself.

"I have done some research on the several spells I acquired back then, but I can't say I am proficient in them. Now that my spiritual consciousness has greatly increased, I can spend more time on the Feihong Sword Technique. I can kill enemies with my flying sword, which is quite cool.

of……"

Thinking of this, Su Chen took out an ordinary iron sword used for daily practice from the space in the cauldron.

Laying it flat in front of you, you immediately closed your eyes, and your spiritual thoughts spread out, like strands of invisible transparent silk thread, wrapped around the hilt of the sword.

Just like the derived arm, the iron sword vibrated slightly, then slowly rose into the air and flew forward.

Su Chen can now easily control objects with his spiritual thoughts.

The next step is how to control it more skillfully. When the time comes, you can kill enemies with a sword, and no matter how powerful it is, it will be cool.

A few days later.

Su Chen then received the information from Jiang Yan, which mentioned the news about the Nanman envoys coming to Beijing.

The envoy said that some time ago, deep in the barbarian grassland, a strange phenomenon occurred in the sky, and a rare treasure appeared in the world.

The Man King felt that such treasures must be worthy of the True Dragon Emperor, so he sent envoys to the capital to ask the Emperor of Chu for permission to let their army escort the treasures into the Chu State's border, and then hand them over to the Chu State.

The envoy team entered the imperial capital and presented it to Emperor Jin.

Accompanying her was a barbarian princess. She heard that the country was beautiful and as beautiful as a fairy. The barbarian king wanted to use this to marry Da Chu and create a lasting relationship.

Of course Emperor Jin was happy and readily agreed.
