When Zhou Tai saw Gu Chen and Zhang Hao going upstairs together, the expression on his face was very exciting.
In the morning, he heard that Chen Yunfei and Zhang Hao had returned to Yueli Tower side by side. At that time, he was still doubtful and thought it was unlikely.
After all, no matter the other party's status, age, or talent, there should be nothing that makes Taiqi Palace True Successor take notice.
However, the facts are now in front of us. The other party actually had lunch with Zhang Hao, and they looked like they were chatting and laughing. It was obvious that their relationship was not shallow!
Zhou Tai didn't know how the other party did this, but he was secretly glad in his heart that he had never provoked the other party before, otherwise he might regret it now.
Since there was no grudge and they had said something before, it was considered acquaintance. Zhou Tai was now extremely thick-skinned and hurried forward.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, what a coincidence, we meet again."
He pretended to meet Gu Chen by chance, and changed his original title of "little friend" to Taoist friend, looking quite enthusiastic.
Gu Chen saw the urgent look in Zhou Tai's eyes and immediately understood what he was thinking.
Zhou Tai's cynicism yesterday was still fresh in his mind, and his current attitude was nothing more than following the crowd, but Gu Chen didn't have any contempt for him, and he had no intention of treating him coldly.
"Mr. Zhou is also eating here." He smiled.
"Brother Chen, are you familiar with this person?"
Seeing someone talking to Gu Chen, Zhang Hao and Sheng Kuafu both looked over, and Zhang Hao asked casually.
Zhou Tai's heart suddenly tightened. If Gu Chen said that he was not familiar with him at this time, it would not only be embarrassing but also embarrassing.
"We know each other, we are friends."
Gu Chen responded with a smile and did not refute Zhou Tai's face.
In his opinion, Zhou Tai was already very old, yet he could still put down his dignity and find ways to make friends with the disciples of Taiqi Palace, just for the sake of the future of the Zhou Dynasty.
Everyone has his or her own position and responsibility, just as he was trying to get to know Zhang Hao for his own purposes. Now Zhou Tai stepped forward to talk. There was no need for him to put on a bad face. After all, multiple friends have multiple ways out.
After hearing Gu Chen's words, Zhou Tai felt relieved and even felt grateful.
"Since we know each other, let's go together."
Zhang Hao nodded and actually invited Zhou Tai to have lunch with him, which surprised him.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yunfei had such a great reputation. According to the information he had previously obtained, the true successor of Taiqi Palace did not want to deal with major forces.
Gu Chen naturally had no objection and could see that Zhang Hao had already begun to fulfill his promise and treated him differently in front of outsiders.
Zhou Tai and Gu Chen entered the only private room on the fifth floor together as they wished, which made many guests look envious.
They all knew the thoughts of the Zhou Dynasty Emperor. They had hit the same wall as them before, but now they openly became Zhang Hao's guests.
It was obvious that this was because of the young man holding an umbrella. At that moment, many people's eyes flickered and their thoughts were directed towards Gu Chen.
The other party seems to be approachable. Compared with directly approaching Zhang Hao, this seems to be a good breakthrough...
In the private room, the four of them sat down separately and chatted while eating lunch.
"I heard that Mr. Zhou's lineage has some connection with the Zhou clan of the Third Mountain and Sea. Is it true or not?"
During the dinner, Zhang Hao learned about Zhou Tai's identity and asked casually.
When Gu Chen heard this, he was slightly surprised and couldn't help but look at Zhou Tai.
After coming to the Taoist world and gaining a general understanding of this world, Gu Chen already understood some things.
The Zhou clan of the Third Mountain and Sea is the white-haired demon king Zhou Fengling. This former hegemon's son abandoned his blood and married into a powerful force in the Taoist world.
Uncle Ling had been reluctant to mention things about the Zhou clan back then, mostly because he felt it was dishonorable, but with the help of the intelligence network in his hand, Gu Chen learned more about Uncle Ling and his rather impressive wife.
Many years have passed since we parted ways in Jiehai. Gu Chen has not gone to find Uncle Ling for a long time, just because he felt that the time has not yet come.
I didn't expect to hear news about the Zhou clan here.
It is true that Zhou Tai also has the surname Zhou, but there are many people with the same surname in the world, and the Zhou Dynasty is located in the Second Mountain and Sea, and the Shenyin Army has no relevant information, so Gu Chen did not associate the two forces together.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Sheng Kuafu also showed an interested look. Although the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty attended the Tianpu Taoist Court, there was no Taoist ancestor in charge, so they were only a second-rate force at best.
But the Zhou clan of the Third Mountain and Sea is different. In terms of strength, it is still above the Dawn God Clan, and the Great Void Technique mastered by this clan is even more enviable.
Feeling the curious gazes of everyone, Zhou Tai did not feel any pride because of his relationship with the Zhou clan. Instead, he replied awkwardly: "The ancestors of our clan were indeed from the Zhou clan, but they have long since severed ties with the Zhou clan and ordered
Future generations will not be able to borrow the Zhou family's fame from generation to generation, and must rely on their own efforts."
Severed ties?
The three people present looked at each other. It seemed that there was a story involved, but Zhou Tai obviously didn't want to mention it more, so no one asked any more questions.
Gu Chen suspected that Zhang Hao might know some inside stories, but seeing that he was also pretending to be confused, he stopped asking for trouble and was secretly wary.
Regarding the past secrets about the alien space under the sea, as well as the current origin of the Zhou Dynasty, the breadth and depth of the information Taiqi Palace possesses is obviously extraordinary, far superior to his Shenyin Army.
I don’t know how they did it. The world of wandering in Taiqi Palace has not been found so far. It may not exist at all.
"Tonight the elders of Youyou Street will hold a banquet. I have received an invitation here. I wonder if you are interested in going together?"
While chatting, Zhang Hao changed the topic.
"I'm afraid a lot of shady rats will attend the banquet held in Youyou Street, right?" Sheng Kuafu said sarcastically after hearing this.
The rats he mentioned naturally refer to those big shots who have prospered in the dark world. As a first-rate force with Dao Ancestor, the Dawn God Clan does not take the dark world seriously at all.
"There might be some big cat hiding among the mice. The activities of various forces in the dark world are no secret. You might be able to meet some interesting people if you go there."
Zhang Hao paused for a moment and then said: "And I heard that the current owner of Youyou Street, Mrs. Du, is as beautiful as a fairy, which brings disaster to the country and the people. Maybe you will have the opportunity to kiss her and be beautiful?"
"Brother Zhang has a distinguished status, so it would be inappropriate to attend the banquet on Youyou Street, right?"
Sheng Kuafu was wondering if Zhang Hao was a womanizer. He treated the beautiful female disciple of Jiange very differently last night. If so, he could give in to her.
"It's really not good to show up directly. How about just pretending a little bit? Anyway, there are a lot of people at this banquet who don't want to reveal their true identity." Zhang Hao thought.
"Since Brother Zhang is so elegant, it wouldn't be a bad idea to join in the fun."
Sheng Kuafu was actually not very interested, but he was willing to get acquainted with Zhang Hao.
"I don't know what kind of treasures will appear in the auction starting tomorrow. Going to this banquet should be able to get some information in advance."
Zhou Tai naturally wanted it too, so he readily agreed.
"Where's Brother Chen?" Zhang Hao looked at Gu Chen who didn't speak.
