Chapter 107 Gathering in the Clouds and Mist Mountains
Huang Pingzhang looked at Gu Chen with complicated eyes. This young man refreshed his understanding of the word genius time and time again.
At the age of only sixteen, his cultivation had reached perfection.
Both his character and IQ are almost impeccable.
In comparison, although his granddaughter is somewhat beautiful, she is still far away from the magical power realm. The gap between the two is too big.
"It seems that it is becoming increasingly impossible to recruit him as my Huang family's son-in-law."
Huang Pingzhang sighed in his heart.
"Huang Daoyou, why are you not happy that I broke through?"
Gu Chen noticed Huang Pingzhang's expression, the strong aura returned to his body, and he suddenly looked like an ordinary boy.
"Of course not, congratulations." Huang Pingzhang shook his head.
"Then why do you look so sad? But what happened recently?" Gu Chen asked.
Huang Pingzhang didn't have the nerve to say that he felt depressed because he felt that there was no hope of accepting a grandson-in-law, so he changed the topic.
"There is indeed something more disturbing. Tomorrow the Yunyan Sect will convene a gathering in the three cities and require the leaders of all the forces in this area to attend."
"Oh? What does Yunyan Sect want to do?" Gu Chen was slightly surprised.
"It's not clear. The situation was turbulent during this period, and some forces began to disobey their leadership. Perhaps they wanted to appease people's hearts and restore their prestige."
Huang Pingzhang looked at Gu Chen and felt something in his heart. "Originally, I planned to take my concubine alone to Yunwu Mountain, but since you have made a breakthrough, Fellow Daoist Chen, how about we go together?"
"The situation has been quite chaotic recently. With you here, I feel more at ease."
Gu Chen did not refuse and agreed.
The next day.
A group of three people sat on the carriage and drove slowly and unhurriedly to Yunwu Mountain, the gate of Yunyan Sect.
Gu Chen was dressed in a black warrior uniform, with his long, thick ink-like hair hanging loosely, and he was practicing silently with his eyes closed.
Concubine Huang sat opposite him and glanced at him secretly from time to time.
Although Gu Chen lives in her home, she has seen him very infrequently recently.
He and his grandpa often went out mysteriously, and when she asked her grandpa, he wouldn't tell her where he was going, which made her miss him terribly, but she was helpless.
It was finally possible to go out with Gu Chen today. After her strong request, grandpa agreed to take the carriage, giving them more time to spend together.
After not seeing each other for a while, she noticed that Gu Chen seemed to be growing taller again. A boy of his age was in the stage of growing taller.
His skin has a healthy wheat color, and he is neither thin nor fat. He is her favorite type.
As for his face, his delicate features still revealed an indifferent temperament.
Every time she felt Gu Chen's repulsive temperament, she wanted to know what kind of past this young man had that made him have such a character.
She really wanted to use her enthusiasm to melt his cold heart, which her grandfather also strongly supported.
Even her eldest uncle and second uncle, who have always disliked her at home, have been hinting that they hang out with Gu Chen more recently.
Obviously, today's Huang family is increasingly inseparable from Chen Congfeng's strong protection.
Huang Fei knew that as the head of the family and a woman, there was a high possibility of a political marriage in the future.
But if this person is Chen Congfeng, she will be married to the man she loves, and there is no better ending than this.
Thinking of all these things, Huang Fei mustered up her courage and kept talking to Gu Chen on the way.
She even got up early and prepared a lot of pastries of various flavors and handed them to Gu Chen from time to time, hoping to capture this man's stomach and then his heart.
It's a pity that although Gu Chen responded to her, he was always lukewarm. He only tasted the cakes she made by hand.
Huang Pingzhang watched this scene and sighed secretly. Although he admired Gu Chen, he didn't want his granddaughter to suffer from unrequited love.
Looking at it like this, it is impossible for the two of them. After returning this time, it is better to persuade Huang Fei to give up, so as not to fall deeper into the trap.
The carriage stopped and Yunwu Mountain arrived.
The Yunyan Sect's sphere of influence is dominated by Greedy Wolf, Pojun and Seven Kills and Three Cities. As the gate of the mountain, Yunwu Mountain is right in the center of this area.
This is a mountain with beautiful scenery. Spiritual springs and waterfalls can be seen everywhere on the mountain. The top is shrouded in clouds and mist. It is said that it never changes in four seasons.
When Gu Chen and the others were taken into the mountain by Yunyan Sect disciples, many leaders of the forces had already arrived.
When they saw Huang Pingzhang, many people immediately came forward to chat with him warmly, with a hint of flattery in their eyes.
There are hundreds of forces under the Yunyan Sect, among which the Huang family in Tanlang City, the Zhou family and Peng family in Qisha City, and the Yuchi family in Pojun City are the most powerful.
Recently, the situation in the three cities has been chaotic. The leader of Yunyan Sect and many elders have died. The Peng family in Qisha City has also been inexplicably wiped out, and its strength has been greatly weakened.
As a result, the two aristocratic families of Tanlang City and Pojun City came to the fore.
Not long after the Huang family unified Tanlang City, it is said that Mr. Huang of the Huang family has broken the shackles of longevity and has improved his cultivation.
As for Chen Gu, whom the Huang family invited to worship, there are many legends about him circulating in the outside world. It is said that he is extremely powerful, and it is his credit for the Huang family's resurrection.
The head of the Yuchi family in Pojun City, Yuchi Zhong, is of the same generation as Huang Pingzhang, but he has entered the realm of spiritual perfection a few years ago and has complete control over Pojun City.
The Huang family and the Yuchi family are two forces that are rising at the moment. It is entirely possible that they will replace the Yunyan Sect in the future, so Mr. Huang received a warm welcome when he arrived.
Huang Pingzhang chatted and laughed with the leaders of various forces, and headed to the top of Yunwu Mountain together.
Gu Chen followed behind, silently without speaking.
Occasionally, someone tried to talk to him, but was choked back by his cold expression.
He doesn't like to socialize with others, and he knows very well that the people surrounding Huang Pingzhang at this moment are just wallflowers.
Halfway up the mountain, from the other side, a group of people came up surrounded by an old man.
The old man had gray hair on his temples. He looked about the same age as Huang Pingzhang, but his body was as tall and straight as a pine tree, and he exuded a powerful aura inside and out.
Gu Chen didn't need to guess the identity of the other party, he heard many people saying hello to him, saying "Mr. Yuchi" all the time.
Yu Chizhong!
The two heroes alongside Huang Pingzhang in this realm are different from the kind-looking Huang Pingzhang. He gives the impression of a tough military general.
When the two heroes met, Huang Pingzhang smiled and nodded as a greeting.
Yuchizhong, on the other hand, strode closer, his eyes shining brightly.
"Fellow Daoist Huang, after so many years, you have finally reached the perfection of your supernatural powers. Congratulations."
He said, and then looked at Gu Chen behind him. "Is this the legendary Chen Congfeng? He is indeed so young!"
Even though Gu Chen used the Breath Condensation Technique, he could still see at a glance that Gu Chen was extraordinary, but he was unable to determine his specific cultivation level.
"I have long admired your name." Gu Chen said calmly.
