"Ruan Zuoshi, it seems that my idea is right. Things are going much smoother than expected."
Mr. Xiao was very happy. As the first person to recommend Overlord, if Overlord really joined Chijun, his status in the organization would naturally be higher.
Ruan Zuozhi's face was gloomy. He looked at Gu Chen. Perhaps it was his intuition that he had been serving as a guide for many years, but he always felt that what he said was a bit false.
"Three elders, if the Overlord sincerely surrenders to him, it will be a good thing. However, this person has to be guarded against!"
She stood up and reminded.
"What are you guarding against?" the leader of the elders looked unhappy.
In fact, when they returned to Red Maple World this time, Master Chi Mo did not give a clear statement on whether to recruit the Overlord group, but only asked them to evaluate carefully.
Although the right to evaluate is in their hands, they also know that if they can really absorb talents like this, they will definitely be a great achievement for Master Chi Mo.
Now that the other party has taken the initiative to surrender, this couldn't be better. If Ruan Zuoshi questions it in public like this, what if the Overlord is unhappy and the matter goes unsolved?
If the Overlord really has something to guard against, they can talk about it in private. Ruan Zuoshi's current behavior seems to them to be inappropriate.
Ruan Zuoshi could see that the three elders were unhappy, but relying on her years of intuition and never wanting to lure a wolf into the house, she stepped forward without fear and questioned Gu Chen.
"Overlord, may I ask, was it you who killed me, Elder Xuanwu of Chi County?"
As soon as these words came out, there was quite a commotion in the room.
Elder Xuanwu has a heavy responsibility. If he had succeeded in obtaining the creation of the Chaos Secret Land, all the Chijun monks present would also have benefited from it. Therefore, many people have always been worried about what happened at that time.
Many of them lack resources, but such a piece of fat in the Chaos Secret Land has been taken away inexplicably. How can they not feel resentful?
Now that they have the opportunity to know the truth at that time, everyone is listening attentively!
"Yes, I killed Old Xuanwu in the longevity world."
Unexpectedly, Gu Chen did not refute and readily admitted it!
There was an uproar in the city, and many people turned from admiring the Overlord to complaining.
Ruan Zuoshi originally thought that Gu Chen would refute. If he denied it, it would be difficult for her to continue talking.
It turned out that he was too sincere, and she realized that an opportunity was coming and quickly struck while the iron was hot.
"Everyone has heard that the Overlord killed Elder Xuanwu and ruined Chijun's plan. Under such circumstances, he and Chijun were already enemies, but he still wants to come and seek refuge with Chimo. Is this credible?"
"I'm afraid he has an ulterior motive. He must not be allowed to join Chi County!"
"Once he joins Chijun, there will be too many unknown hidden dangers. Maybe he wants to use the life of my Chijun monk to help him resist the revenge of the two Tao Lords!"
After Ruan Zuoshi finished speaking loudly, many people nodded secretly, and even the three elders were worried.
This matter is not easy to solve.
Successfully recruiting the Overlord is certainly a great achievement, but if he really causes trouble, then the credit will turn into a sin.
Gu Chen watched Ruan Zuoshi trying his best to stop him, and smiled secretly in his heart.
This woman has a very discerning eye, and he indeed has an ulterior motive in joining Chi County.
If he doesn't come today, given this woman's hostility, it is estimated that Chijun will not only not be a help to him, but will be a great resistance.
However, now that he is here, how can he allow this woman to ruin his plan again?
"I did kill Old Xuanwu, but I didn't know his identity at the time. Moreover, before I killed him, he first cooperated with Tianying Peng Fu of Xing County and sent people to plot against me."
"The situation in the longevity world was in chaos at that time. All Gu did was to protect himself, and he didn't think there was anything wrong. As for you, would you be willing to be killed by someone who doesn't know the details?"
Gu Chen was calm and looked at everyone one by one confidently.
"If this is the case, the situation is indeed excusable. The fact that the Overlord is willing to be honest with each other shows that he is aboveboard in his heart." Mr. Xiao was the first to speak.
Gu Chen couldn't help but look at him a few more times. This person's strength was considered to be the best among the people in Chi County, and his desire to recruit him was particularly strong. After he conquered Chi County, he should be of great use.
"No matter how you explain it, it is an indisputable fact that Chijun and I lost the creation of the Chaos Secret Land because of you!"
Ruan Zuoshi sneered and said, no matter what the truth was at that time, everyone suffered heavy losses.
As long as there is resentment caused by this incident, I believe most of her companions will be on her side.
"Yes, the creation of the Chaos Secret Land is of great significance to me. If Elder Xuanwu brings back the treasures of heaven and earth, I might have broken through the current bottleneck."
One of the monks in the crowd felt unwilling to do so, and the others felt sad.
"Hahaha……"
Gu Chen looked at the many monks who were filled with resentment and suddenly laughed.
"What's so funny? Overlord was once a general of punishment in Xing County, so he didn't have any training resources. I'm afraid he doesn't understand the human sufferings of casual cultivators like us!" Ruan Zuoshi said unhappily.
"I laugh at you, the layout is too small!"
Gu Chen did not hide his disdain and said disdainfully.
These words made more Chijun monks angry.
"What does a mere secret place of chaos mean? Have you forgotten that Gu has captured the Xingjie, and the entire Xingjun has already fallen into my hands!"
"As long as you become one of our own, won't you have a chance to get the information about the criminal world that Gu has gained?"
"You are obsessed with the little secret place of chaos that has passed away in the past, but you have neglected the opportunities in front of you. Isn't it ridiculous to have such a small layout?"
Gu Chen's sarcasm was like a slap that woke up all the monks present. Their faces looked ashamed, but their hearts became extremely hot because of Gu Chen's words.
The whole Xingjun’s background!
Right!
The Overlord conquered Xingjie and escaped unscathed. I am afraid that he really emptied all the treasures accumulated by Xingjun over the endless years!
They didn't even think of this, their vision is too narrow!
"What's the background of the entire Xing County?" Ruan Zuoshi's expression changed, and he realized that he had no cards left.
Everyone pursues fame and wealth, but the Overlord knows this well and has captured her army!
"Is what the Overlord said true?"
The three elders looked excited and asked quickly.
If we can really get the foundation of Xingjun, then Chijun will be able to grow in a very short period of time.
With this gift alone, even if Gu Chen is just a mortal, he can gain a very high status after joining Chijun!
"Of course it's true." Gu Chen's lips curled up.
The premise of what he just said was that the monks from Chijun became one of his own, and what he said about his own people may be different from what everyone understood.
"Okay, Overlord, please wait a moment."
The three elders received Gu Chen's affirmative answer and no longer hesitated.
They held each other's hands, closed their eyes one after another, and stood strangely still.
"What is this doing?"
Behind Gu Chen, Zhong Shenxiu curiously asked about the dragon monster that had been lurking for a long time.
"It is said that the internal affairs elders can communicate directly with Chi Mo. They must be asking for Chi Mo's advice." Dragon Monster guessed.
"These three thousand small worlds are made up of countless small chaos paths. Chaos blocks magical powers and also blocks all thoughts. It is difficult for Dao Lords to communicate across borders. So does Chi Demon have this ability?" Zhong Shenxiu questioned.
road.
His doubts were also what Gu Chen was confused about. He knew nothing about Lord Chi Mo. One of the important purposes of coming here today was to find out his background.
Only by understanding his strength can he better prescribe the right medicine.
Looking at the three elders who were communicating with Chi Mo, Gu Chen's deep sea purple pupils quietly lit up!
