"Since I started practicing, I have never been different from ordinary people, so I have always believed that I have an ordinary physique."
"It wasn't until the past few months that I gradually felt something unusual, and I was very confused."
Gu Chen pretended to be ignorant and said.
What he said was actually combined with his experience of awakening the Heavenly Tyrant Bone. Some special physiques are not obvious at the beginning, and it takes some opportunities to emerge from the cocoon and become a butterfly.
He didn't know what the Emperor of Heaven was thinking specifically, but such an ambiguous statement was obviously the most appropriate.
"This is normal. A physique like King Wu's battle body is different from some physiques that are close to nature, such as the fire spirit body, the wood spirit body, etc. It is often neither mountainous nor watery at first."
"Many physiques even require the treasures of the human body to be mined to a certain level before superpowers can gradually manifest. This must be the case with you."
The Heavenly Emperor smiled kindly, seeming to believe Gu Chen's words.
Gu Chen couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, and nodded pretending to understand.
"The Great Martial King's Battle Body! That's great. I have another powerful physique in Heaven!"
Qiangwei Killing God also showed a smile. He didn't expect that Chen Gu, who originally thought he had an ordinary physique, actually had such a talent.
It's reasonable to think about it this way. How could someone with an average physique achieve such strength at his age?
"The bloodline of this little monkey is also very extraordinary. He must be the queen of a powerful demon clan."
The Heavenly Emperor's praise made White Ape look embarrassed.
"You all have great talents. Work hard. Chen Gu, you may be able to become a Taoist disciple one day, but..."
The old Emperor suddenly changed the subject, "Today you severely injured Cui Zheng, which caused trouble for the Heavenly Palace."
"Junior knows that he was wrong."
Gu Chen did not explain. The ins and outs of his battle with Cui Zheng must have been clearly seen by the Emperor of Heaven. There was no point in trying to excuse himself.
To be honest, the power of the Sun-Embracing and Moon-Embracing Hammer after Xiu Cheng Unburning Gold was indeed a bit beyond his expectation, and Cui Zheng was seriously injured.
"You must know how to repent after you have made a mistake. Now that Cui Zheng is seriously injured, the task that was originally intended for him to complete can only be left to you."
"I wonder what the mission is?"
Gu Chen was surprised for a moment, thinking that this was the real reason why the Emperor of Heaven called him here.
"Your Majesty, it might be more appropriate to leave that task to someone else."
Qinglin Killer God also showed a look of surprise and reminded.
"He was the one who injured Cui Zheng, so he should take over this task."
The Emperor of Heaven spoke categorically, and the Qinglin Killing God, who knew his temperament fairly well, immediately understood that he had made up his mind and said no more.
"Chen Gu, listen carefully, this is what happened."
The old Emperor of Heaven began to explain the mission, "I, Jiang Yige, the Taoist disciple of the Heavenly Court, went to the Zhenwu Academy of the Middle-earth Empire two months ago, but disappeared inexplicably, and there was no news for two whole months."
"Cui Zheng is familiar with Jiang Yige. Originally, Heavenly Court planned to send him to investigate the matter, but I didn't expect that you severely injured him. It seems that this task cannot be completed."
"So, I plan to let you take over from him to carry out this mission. The mission is at the prefecture level. Do you have any objections?"
Gu Chen's expression condensed.
Prefecture-level tasks are usually tasks accepted by the Golden Killer. Since the Emperor of Heaven has designated the matter of finding people as prefecture-level, it means that the risks encountered may be quite high.
Also, it turned out to be Zhenwu Academy!
Gu Chen couldn't help but think of a young girl. If she hadn't died, she must have been in Zhenwu Academy, right?
"Junior has no objection."
Gu Chen knew that the Emperor of Heaven had made it clear that he wanted to take on this task, so there was no way he could say no, so he readily agreed.
"Very good, wait until you arrive at the Kyushu branch to understand the specific content of this mission. Remember, if you encounter trouble that you cannot solve yourself, report it to heaven in a timely manner."
"Junior understands."
"Okay, you can go down now."
After the Emperor of Heaven finished speaking, Gu Chen followed the order and left with full thoughts.
As soon as he left, Qinglin Killing God couldn't help but said.
"Your Majesty, Chen Gu and Jiang Yige have never met. I'm afraid it's difficult for the two parties to trust each other. It would be wiser to send other quasi-Daoists, right?"
"Besides, the current situation in Kyushu is a bit sensitive, right? Then Chen Gu, to be honest, I think he is a restless master."
The Emperor of Heaven smiled and said something without any beginning or end. "Qinglin, do you know about catfish?"
"Catfish? That seems to be a kind of ordinary fish?"
Qinglin Killer God was confused when he heard this.
"Catfish is a very active fish that feeds on other fish. In the ordinary world, if a fisherman catches fish and wants to transport it to the city to sell, in order to ensure that the fish will not die on the way, he will
Put a catfish in the water."
"Catfish like to eat small fish, and other fish will swim hard to survive. In this way, they are still alive when they arrive in the city and can be sold at a good price."
The meaningful words of the God of Heaven.
"Your Majesty, what does this Chen Gu have to do with Catfish? You didn't call him here specifically just to give him a mission, right?"
Rose Killer God asked in surprise.
In fact, both she and Qinglin didn't understand the real intention of the Emperor of Heaven in summoning Gu Chen.
"You don't need to ask so many questions. Some things will naturally become clear to you later."
Emperor Tian's eyes showed wisdom, "You just need to know that Chen Gu is my catfish!"
…
Gu Chen left the Heavenly Emperor's residence and couldn't help but fall into memories.
Going to Zhenwu Academy to investigate Daozi's disappearance aroused many concerns in him.
"It's been a year, it's been a whole year."
Gu Chen murmured.
At this time a year ago, he was just an ordinary handyman disciple of the Wuchen Sect, but now, he has become a quasi-taoist disciple of the Heavenly Court.
So many accidents happened this year, and things always happened one after another, so that he didn't realize how fast time passed.
He is seventeen years old.
My birthday even passed in the world of Jiuyang September without knowing it.
Zhenwu Academy reminded him of Ye Qingshuang, that cheap fiancée who once forced him to break off the engagement just to enter this so-called holy land of cultivation.
"I wonder if she realized her wish?"
Gu Chen thought of the catastrophe in Fenglin Mansion a year ago, and he still didn't know whether Ye Qingshuang was dead or alive.
According to the information obtained afterwards, there was no news of her death, so it is possible that she was not dead.
If she hadn't died, she would have gone to Zhenwu Academy.
Thinking that there might be her somewhere where he was about to go, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
He used to hate her completely, but after experiencing the tragedy of Feng Lin Mansion, those previous conflicts were not worth mentioning now.
He never missed her, but he wished all his old friends could be alive.
After all, there are probably only a few single seedlings left of the Wuchen Sect.
