The first thousand and eighty-eight chapters of the battle of the gods
"Why are you here?" Gu Chen asked curiously.
When Yu Wenbo heard this, he clenched his fists tightly and remained silent. It was a pity that he was tied up, otherwise he might have taken action at this time.
Even if the other party didn't mention it, Gu Chen would have guessed that Yu Wenbo might have been captured by Tang Ning based on the corpses floating outside the atmosphere.
"Ha~~~Why are you here?"
At this time, Tang Ning, with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes, walked out of the hut, stretched and yawned again and again.
Gu Chen looked at him and saw that his face was covered with stubble, the clothes on his body seemed to have not been washed for many days, and he even smelled of alcohol, and he laughed dumbly.
"I'm here to find you."
Tangning smiled half-heartedly when she heard this, "You're just in time, I'm about to cook, please have some."
After speaking, without waiting for Gu Chen to agree or refuse, he turned around and walked to the hut next to him, and took out a pile of firewood from inside.
He actually set up a bonfire in the courtyard, then took out the corpse of a strange ferocious beast from the storage ring, skewered it with iron rods, and roasted it on the fire.
Yu Wenbo, who was tied up in the distance, looked shocked when he saw this scene, as if Tangning had violated some taboo by doing this.
"What kind of monster is this?"
Gu Chen noticed Yu Wenbo's expression and saw that the beast looked like a horse but not a horse, a deer but not a deer, an ox but not an ox, and a donkey but not a donkey. He had never seen it before, so he asked curiously.
"This beast is called Sibei, but it is a great tonic. You are lucky enough to have caught it just in time."
Tangning smiled and fiddled with the bonfire, trying to roast the various meats. Unfortunately, the firewood was all burned out, and only the outer skin of the monster's corpse was cooked.
"This firewood is too mediocre, it won't be cooked properly, etc."
Tangning immediately searched in her storage ring and soon took out a guqin.
This guqin didn't look extraordinary at first glance, but Tang Ning regarded it as firewood and threw it into the bonfire.
Pfft.
The bonfire burned very brightly for a while, and the meaty aroma soon wafted out of the meat.
Gu Chen watched Tang Ning busy cooking the barbecue and teased, "Other people live in seclusion in the mountains and forests to be with the breeze, playing the harp and flute, but it's better for you to burn the harp and cook the cranes, and get drunk every day."
"Playing the harp and flute is just arty. How can there be the fragrance of fine wine and game?"
Tang Ning finally cooked the meat, sprinkled some seasonings on it, and handed a fragrant roast leg to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen took it and took a bite. The meat left a fragrant aroma on his lips and teeth after eating it, and his body felt warm, no worse than any elixir.
"It is indeed a great tonic. I wonder where this delicious food comes from?" Gu Chen praised.
"A young man named Fang Wen sent it from outside the boundary." Tang Ning said with a smile.
Gu Chen's face suddenly condensed, and he almost choked.
"really?"
"Why are you lying to me?" Tang Ning took a sip of wine, looking intoxicated, and then handed the wine bottle to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen took it, took a big gulp, laughed and cursed, "What's going on?"
"The other party was trying to calculate my location, so I deliberately leaked the location. Then this guy led a large group of people to the door and actually wanted to kill me."
"Although that young boy has some abilities, he really underestimated me. He actually thought he could deal with me with his mount. No, I roasted these four beasts and ate them."
While talking and laughing, Tang Ning tore off a piece of meat and threw it in the direction of Yu Wenbo. At the same time, the rope that bound Yu Wenbo was loosened.
Yu Wenbo caught the barbecue with a hesitant look on his face and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
He had been tied up by Tang Ning for many days. It could be said that he was hungry and thirsty. This kind of meat was a rare delicacy, and it made his index fingers move.
But when he thought that these four don't look like Fang Wen's mounts, and if he found out about this, he would be unable to bear the burden of riding around, he suddenly lost his courage.
Seeing that he wanted to eat but didn't dare to eat, Tang Ning couldn't help but shake her head.
"It's pitiful. After all, he is a recognized genius in my Ninth Realm. He is ranked in the top five on the list of geniuses of all races, but he is so afraid of a kid from outside the realm that he doesn't even dare to eat the meat of his mount."
Tangning's teasing made Yu Wenbo's face turn red, his heart almost broke, and he was trembling with shame.
Gu Chen watched all this in silence.
It is really sad. I think that Yu Wenbo was the most influential figure in the Mountain of the Gods back then and was a genius among the many, but now he is willing to be enslaved by geniuses from outside the world.
He has lost his ambition. If he cannot get rid of the fear of outside geniuses, I am afraid that his path to Taoism will stop here.
In fact, it wasn't just him. Gu Chen remembered that during the Battle of Galaxy, Gu Xunfeng and Fang Fangzhou also took refuge with the young supreme outside the world.
They were originally the most dazzling geniuses in the Ninth Realm and were highly anticipated, but they were willing to become mere foils in this golden world.
Yu Wenbo was holding a piece of meat and was in a daze, feeling confused between heaven and man. Gu Chen stopped paying attention to him and started chatting with Tang Ning.
"It seems that you have already had a confrontation with that Fang Wen. It's so good. It seems that you know the situation in the outside world more clearly than anyone else."
Gu Chen said, as soon as he heard that Tang Ning's place of seclusion was not far from Xuannv Palace, Gu Chen had an intuition in his heart.
I'm afraid Tangning has never truly lived in seclusion, and her retreat into the mountains and forests is just an illusion. He is still concerned about the situation in the outside world.
He chose a place not far from Xuannv Palace to live in seclusion. Gu Chen even suspected that he had calculated in advance that this place would become the battlefield of Ancient Heaven.
"After the Hundred Sons from Outside the Realm came to the Ninth Realm two years ago, I have been paying attention to their movements. Of course I am aware of the situation."
Tangning took a sip of wine and her eyes became sad. "Unfortunately, I made a miscalculation and failed to predict that Emperor Huang would die."
"What's going on?" Gu Chen asked.
"When the Hundred Sons from Outside the Border just arrived, I figured it out. I originally wanted to observe their movements secretly and understand Xingjun's motives, but I didn't expect that my plan was discovered by Fang Wen."
"This Fang Wen claims to belong to the lineage of prophetic origin masters. He has secretly contested with me countless times in the past two years. Because of his restraint, I am unable to distract myself from paying attention to other young supreme beings."
"Because of this, when the Battle of the Galaxy happened, I failed to detect it in advance, so Emperor Huang died in the battle and Ancient Heaven suffered huge losses!"
Tang Ning's expression was particularly gloomy when she mentioned this. She took a hard bite of the different-looking meat and swallowed it.
Gu Chen was shocked when he heard that Tang Ning was known to have plotted against everyone in the world. He had plotted against him many times before, and he succeeded almost every time.
He can be said to be the think tank of the ancient heaven, a rare genius in the Ninth Realm, but he didn't expect that he would suffer a loss at the hands of Fang Wen.
A lineage of prophetic source masters?
What kind of inheritance is that, and it even humbled Tang Ning?
"At least you've regained a victory now, right?" Gu Chen looked at the barbecue in his hand.
"Yes, I woke up immediately after Gu Tianting was attacked and have been secretly competing with him."
"I know that he has always wanted to know my location, so I deliberately left a loophole to lure him here."
"I originally wanted to say that if he comes, I will try my best to kill him, which will be regarded as removing a serious problem for Gu Tianting. But I didn't expect that boy to be so arrogant and thought that he could deal with me by sending his mount."
Tangning kept sneering as she spoke, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, you are so young and energetic, you don't even take an old man like me seriously."
