Chapter 1613: A thousand cups after a long absence
Many Dao Lords also knew Qin Dao Lord's temperament and knew that this was his bottom line. In order to prevent the matter from continuing to cause trouble, they quickly helped to persuade Gu Chen.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, when discussing the Chaos Ten Thousand Spirits List, all Dao Lords need to be present. Since Fellow Daoist Qin has agreed to follow our rules, why not let Fellow Daoist Yongye go?"
Su Daojun opened his mouth and said, it is rare to speak for Qin Daojun.
This made Qin Daojun even more uncomfortable. If Gu Chen didn't let the person go, he would lose face. But if he let the person go, it would be equivalent to confirming the content of the previous bet between the two parties. In this meeting of hundreds of counties, he was completely defeated!
He secretly cursed something mean, "Qin Daojun is a mute and eats Coptis chinensis. He can't tell the story of his sufferings."
Gu Chen wanted to embarrass Qin Daojun, but he also knew enough was enough. After all, in terms of real strength, Qin Daojun was stronger than him, so it would not be good to completely push him.
"Okay, I'll give Fellow Daoist Su some face today."
Gu Chen agreed to release True Lord Yong Ye, but his words still disapproved of Qin Dao Lord.
He quickly turned to look at Wuming, who nodded, and with a thought, a dark mist appeared in the distance, and Lord Yongye fell out of it, looking a little embarrassed.
Seeing him like that, Qin Daojun felt even worse and secretly cursed him as a fool.
"Things have become so big today that the meeting cannot continue. Everyone, please take a rest at Lingxiao Mountain for one night and continue the topic of the Chaos All Souls List tomorrow."
Seeing that everyone's minds were not on the meeting at all, Mr. Zhuojian shook his head and suggested.
No one objected, Qin Daojun, Yongye Zhenjun and others left in a hurry with their descendants.
Qin Er, Sang Ting and others were all seriously injured. Several Dao Lords were afraid of leaving hidden dangers and affecting the subsequent ranking battles, so they had to heal their injuries as soon as possible.
The Taoist kings who had watched a good show were still having some fun, so they went to have fun together in twos and threes.
Su Daojun, Jinwu Daojun, Yu Daojun and others all invited Gu Chen to get together, but he politely declined.
"It's not easy to meet my brother again today. I have a lot to say to him. I will sit down and discuss Taoism with you fellow Taoists another day."
Gu Chen explained that he really had a lot of things to say about seeing the Immortal Emperor Qi Tian and seeing the White Ape again.
"Well, friend Daoist Gu, please remember. Su also has a lot of things he wants to talk to you about."
Su Daojun didn't mind, he said with a smile, and left alone, without paying any attention to Jinwu Daojun and Yu Daojun.
The crowd dispersed quickly, and Gu Chen finally had time to talk to Immortal Emperor Qitian.
The two looked at each other and smiled. Gu Chen said boldly, "Let's go have a drink!"
…
In the courtyard arranged for Bajun on Lingxiao Mountain, Gu Chen and Immortal Emperor Qi Tian reunited after a long absence, drinking wine and talking freely.
"How many years?"
Gu Chen drank the special wine of Jian County, with a complicated look on his face, and said inexplicably.
"It's been sixteen years."
Immortal Emperor Qi Tian knew that he was talking about the day when they left the Ninth Realm, so he answered with emotion in his heart.
"Sixteen years? So, my son has grown up."
Gu Chen took a big gulp of wine, feeling bitter in his heart, which was worse than the taste on his tongue.
The child had just been born when he left the Ninth Realm, and he had already embarked on the journey before he even had time to take a look at him and give him a good hug.
In the past two days, first Zhuo Jianjun's engagement reminded him of Lan Chu, and now he reunited with Immortal Emperor Qi Tian, which made him miss his hometown even more intensely after several drinks.
"I've heard about the Ninth Realm."
Immortal Emperor Qitian was silent for a moment. He had been practicing hard over the years, but that didn't mean he knew nothing about the outside world.
When Gu Chen broke up with Xing Jun and the news came that the Chaos Path Window in the Ninth Realm suddenly collapsed, he realized that it was Gu Chen's doing.
Although the information he had was limited, he also knew that the decisive battle between Gu Chen and Xingjun was not far away.
At that time, he wanted to come to him and fight side by side with him.
However, after leaving the Ninth Realm, he walked too far and experienced too long a journey. The Sea of Chaos is so vast, how easy is it to go back?
When he heard about Gu Chen again, it was already after Ba County was established.
The news that came after that was true and false, a bit unbelievable, and Immortal Emperor Qi Tian was not sure whether it was true or not.
It wasn't until he came to Jian County and witnessed the battle between Gu Chen and Qin Daojun that he was sure that the former overlord who had endured humiliation for the Ninth Realm had finally become famous.
After three days of separation, he was surprised to see that Gu Chen had grown much faster than he originally thought, and he no longer even needed his help.
"When I left the Ninth Realm and returned after destroying the Penal Realm, I didn't even see Lan Chu, my child, or my parents. Do you think I did the right thing?"
The two of them gradually became drunk while drinking, and Gu Chen's expression revealed a hint of sadness.
Now that he has finally gotten rid of the nightmare of Dao Lord Xing, he also has the strength to challenge Dao Lords from all sides. In this sea of chaos, no one dares to threaten him and his family at will.
However, he cannot go back. The Chaos Path Window in the Ninth Realm has disappeared, and he may never be able to see his relatives again for the rest of his life.
In the past, Gu Chen tried his best to think optimistically, believing that he would be able to go back sooner or later, but in his heart, didn't he have a trace of fear and confusion?
Bai Yuan had grown up with him since he was a child. Gu Chen did not hide his emotions in front of him and spoke out what was on his mind.
Everyone in the world thought that he had become famous and reached the top. However, along the way, he had to bear too much and lost too much.
"You can definitely go back, your family is waiting for you."
Immortal Emperor Qitian didn't know how to comfort Gu Chen, so he could only speak softly, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
"I still remember that in Donghuang, at Zhenwu Academy, you stole things and got into trouble, and every time, I helped you clean up the mess."
"The scenes from back then are still fresh in my memory, but in the blink of an eye, you have grown up."
As if realizing that the topic had become a bit serious, Gu Chen changed the subject and said jokingly.
Immortal Emperor Qitian's attention was indeed diverted, and his face darkened. "Can you not mention what happened back then?"
Back then, he had the nature of a reincarnated child, and being greedy was not his nature. Well, absolutely not!
After all, he was a majestic Immortal Emperor of Qi Tian. He couldn't bear it when someone exposed him like this, so he immediately counterattacked.
"I still remember that back then, someone enjoyed the good things I stole and took advantage of my youth and ignorance to steal most of them."
"Ahem, is there any?"
Gu Chen immediately choked on his wine and was so guilty that he didn't dare to refute.
"What do you think?"
Immortal Emperor Qi Tian looked at Gu Chen with disdain. The two looked at each other speechlessly, then laughed and drank even more happily.
"It's great that you're back."
When he was drunk, Gu Chen murmured a few words but could not hear them.
"I also want to steal your roasted animal meat..."
Immortal Emperor Qitian also fell to the ground drunk, drooling and murmuring.
