"Since you and I both have secrets that we don't want to tell others, let's just be friends first."
Seeing that Gu Chen noticed something, Zhang Hao shook his head, and then he seemed to feel relieved and said calmly.
"You and I have been friends for a long time."
Gu Chen doesn't hold on to her, as long as they understand each other well.
"Although I have cut off the clue to the Fear Stone, now that the matter is so big, you still have to be careful in everything. If you are caught one day..."
Zhang Hao kindly reminded him and said it for a while.
"Don't worry, if I get caught, I won't implicate you."
Gu Chen answered simply, and Zhang Hao was quite satisfied.
"Well, I won't ask any more questions. I plan to stay in Pedu for a while. You won't welcome me, right?"
"You're not going back to Taiqi Palace? Such a big thing happened, and your sudden disappearance won't arouse suspicion?"
Gu Chen frowned, not understanding what Zhang Hao meant by staying here.
"Don't worry, I've taken care of everything. No one knows I'm here. I see it's quiet here and want to retreat here for a while." Zhang Hao replied.
"Retreat?"
Gu Chen thought of the stone statue obtained from Haitian Palace. Zhang Hao was in retreat at this time. Could it be related to it?
That stone statue contains a power similar to that of Taiqi Palace Daocheng. Judging from Zhang Hao's previous efforts to obtain it and his fear of being known after getting it, it is indeed possible.
"Okay, you can stay here peacefully. I promise that no one will disturb you."
Gu Chen thought for a while and looked at Ni Bodhisattva. "Brother Zhang, I will leave you in charge of your daily life. Your hospitality must be thoughtful."
Ni Bodhisattva nodded seriously, understanding that the other meaning of Gu Chen's words was to ask him to pay attention to whether Zhang Hao had done anything inappropriate.
Gu Chen quickly left, no matter whether Zhang Hao had ulterior motives or not, he was temporarily appeased.
However, if Zhang Hao lives in Peidu, it will be inconvenient for Chou Huang, Yuan Gangyi and Hai Dongxin to show up. With Zhang Hao's keenness, it is very possible to identify their identities.
Zhang Hao knew that Emperor Chou and Yuan Gangyi were on his side, but he might not be clear about Hai Dongxin's situation.
In his words just now, he deliberately mentioned killing the five great sages, which was both a temptation and a dig.
Hai Dongxin is very powerful and her identity is not simple. Although she has not really returned home yet, she will be of great use in the future. It is better not to expose her before she can truly trust Zhang Hao.
Since Peidu is not suitable to stay, where should we arrange the three of them?
Gu Chen carefully considered it and decided that the Ancient Swamp was a good choice. It was inaccessible and it was the territory of the Yinlong Clan. No matter how much the Taoist court searched, they could not find it there.
In addition, the eighteen real dragons rescued from the Dragon Taming Sect can also be arranged there.
They have suffered long-term abuse in the Dragon Taming Sect, and I believe that the free and fresh air of the ancient swamp can restore them to normal.
Gu Chen immediately communicated his thoughts with the Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex. After hearing this, the Infinite Tyrannosaurus was in full agreement, but there was a hint of hesitation on his face.
"Is there anything you want to say?" Gu Chen asked.
"The Eighteen True Dragons have great potential. I want to teach them for a while."
The Wuji Tyrannosaurus said, and Gu Chen immediately understood its concerns.
It was worried that without him around, no one would be able to help Gu Chen when he was in danger.
After all, people like Clay Bodhisattva and Ren Yin are indeed good at doing things, but their combat power is still in a very embarrassing situation. Once a master comes to visit, they will not be able to help at all.
The people who can help, the Great Prophet and the Hidden Dragon Clan Chief, are not in Peidu all the year round.
After all the calculations, Chen Wenfeng is just fine, but he is still in the realm of a saint.
"You are the supreme leader of the dinosaur clan, and you already shoulder the responsibility of reviving the dinosaur clan. There is no need to tie yourself to me."
"You also know my strength, don't worry, just do what you want to do."
Gu Chen smiled and said, with his current strength, he does not need the Infinite Tyrannosaurus to be by his side to protect him at all times.
"Okay, then I'll go with them."
The Infinite Tyrannosaurus knew that Gu Chen's strength had skyrocketed after the Binhai City group. These words were not to comfort him, but he was really confident, so he no longer hesitated.
"After arriving at the Ancient Swamp, help me pay attention to Hai Dongxin. Of course, just pay attention and don't interfere too much with him." Gu Chen reminded.
"I understand, but is this person really trustworthy?"
"The Canghai tribe can't go back for the time being, and they are tied to the same ship as us. They will not do anything that is not good for us."
"Even so, I think he is very loyal to the Canghai clan, so I'm afraid he won't surrender to us."
"Are our interests definitely opposed to those of the Canghai Clan? If the situation changes one day, he may be the key to our alliance with the Canghai Clan."
The Infinite Tyrannosaurus rex pondered after hearing this. Gu Chen is indeed becoming more and more equipped with the vision and structure needed as a leader.
…
Under Ren Yin's arrangement, the Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex, along with the Eighteen True Dragons and the Chou Emperor, successfully arrived at the Ancient Swamp and settled there temporarily.
Gu Chen is in Luoshui Palace, paying attention to the intelligence coming from Wuwang Pavilion and Shenyin Army every day, and adjusting his deployment and actions accordingly.
At the Binhai City auction, although the descendants of the inner demon and the remnants of the Yuan Clan attracted the most attention, there were also some rumors about Chen Yunfei, a young elder of the Chen clan.
Defeated the genius of the Dragon Taming Sect, became brothers with the true successor of Taiqi Palace, and had an unexpected encounter with the beautiful swordsman from Jiange Pavilion whom he had not seen for thousands of years...
No matter which one of these three things happened, if the turmoil caused by the Binhai City murder case was not too great, it would be enough to attract the attention of the major forces in Second Mountain and Sea.
But now, there are very few forces paying attention to these things, which greatly reduces Gu Chen's risks.
Of course, not everyone cares. As for the Chen clan, Chen Qinghe, who had just become the clan leader a few years ago, could not sleep at night because he was worried that Chen Yunfei, who had become a saint, would want to avenge himself a few years ago and even threaten his status as clan leader.
.
Since Chen Sheng disappeared, the Chen clan has not seen a saint for a long time.
The tragic failure of the previous clan leader's breakthrough a few years ago made all the Chen clan members feel very sad.
But now, a saint has finally appeared in the Chen clan. This saint is still the number one among the younger generation, with endless potential. It is even said that he is a brother to the true disciple of Taiqi Palace.
With such strength and prestige, an undercurrent has arisen within the Chen clan in just a few days, and more and more people are questioning the status of clan leader Chen Qinghe.
Under this situation, Chen Qinghe finally couldn't sit still and wrote a letter to the herders. The letter mentioned that Gu Chen had long been ambitious and therefore concealed the fact of becoming a saint. Such insidious people need to be guarded against even if they are not punished.
.
So, after the turmoil in Binhai City gradually subsided, the herders sent envoys to Peidu.
