Deep in the ancient swamp, Taoist Jingxu began to perform spells on the old woman.
After several days in a row, he was finally done. When he came out of the customs, he was in high spirits, beaming with joy, and not at all tired.
The old woman followed him out, her expression dull and submissive, and she was obviously in a state of sleepwalking.
Everyone came immediately, and when Gu Chen saw the old woman's helpless appearance, he looked inquiring.
"Don't worry, the operation went smoothly. She is completely under control now. This appearance is just intentional on my part, lest she subconsciously hear some of our information and be discovered later by some means."
"When she leaves here, she will look no different from usual. Unless Lan Ming dominates, no one will be able to see anything unusual about her."
Jingxu Daozu explained with a smile.
Gu Chen felt relieved after hearing this, "Then congratulations to Senior Jingxu."
Dao Ancestor Jingxu raised his eyebrows, "What are you congratulating me for? You should be congratulated. Now you not only don't have to worry about your identity being exposed, but you can also plot against Fang Yuan and take the initiative. Oh my, I'm really worried about you!"
"
"Senior Jingxu's benefits are not small, right?"
Gu Chen seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Although he didn't understand Dameng's acting skills, he didn't think it would take Taoist Jingxu several days. More importantly, the energy Taoist Jingxu showed now was different from the one he had just performed.
Completely consumed and too distracted?
He could more or less guess what Jingxu Daozu had been doing these past few days, but he didn't want to get to the bottom of it and take advantage of his good mood to make another request.
"Senior Jingxu, you said before that you entered the dreamland of the survivors of the Zhou clan. I wonder what happened? I want to know more about it."
"If possible, I hope you can help me find this person. He will be of use to me."
Zhou Fengling's life and death were uncertain, and he finally got some clues from Taoist Jingxu. He had been thinking about it these past few days.
"Looking for someone to dream of? This is not an easy task."
Jingxu Daozu frowned slightly.
"Senior, can't you do it?" Gu Chen's heart tightened.
"Hehe, it's not that it can't be done, it's just that it takes a lot of effort..."
When Taoist Jingxu smiled, Gu Chen understood what he meant. This old guy wanted some benefits.
"Senior, if you have anything to say, it doesn't matter."
Taoist Jingxu was waiting for his words, and immediately said: "I heard that Taoist Heart Demon's heart-shaped stone is in your hands. I wonder if you can lend it to me? With the help of the power of the heart-shaped stone, it will be easier for me.
Find the person you're looking for."
Jingxu Daozu looked expectant, and Gu Chen's mouth twitched. Before he could reply, someone beside him couldn't listen anymore.
"Master, we are all allies, and Gu Chen is my eldest brother, why are you so embarrassed..."
Fatty Qian muttered, but before he could finish his words, he was stared at by Taoist Jingxu and swallowed his words alive.
The Chou Emperor was also present. He was a little surprised when he heard this, but kept his composure, wanting to see how Gu Chen would respond.
Gu Chen didn't think much, smiled and shook his head.
"Senior Jingxu, you treat me like an outsider. You obviously got the Big Heart Magic from the old woman, so why are you covering it up?"
Daozu Jingxu was very thick-skinned, and when he saw that Gu Chen had made it clear, instead of pretending to be ignorant and graciously agreeing to his request, he realized that he could not take advantage of it.
He smiled dryly, "Since Little Friend Gu has guessed it, I'll tell you the truth. Although this old woman has a complete inheritance of Daxin Magic, and I got it from her, the cultivation of Daxin Magic has never been easy.
Well, with the help of the heart-shaped stone, I can understand things more quickly."
The reason why Taoist Jingxu couldn't help but come to help after learning about the old woman's situation was not only because of his own disciples, but also his covetousness for the old woman's Big Heart Magic.
He had not revealed this idea of his before, so that it would appear that Gu Chen and the others needed him more, so that he could be more proactive and gain an advantage in the negotiations.
"Master, you are too cunning."
Fatty Qian understood what was going on, and learned that the master had benefited greatly by being secretive, and he couldn't help but understand.
Others present also murmured in their hearts. Sure enough, the longer you live, the more cunning you become!
Forget about being cunning, the important thing is that you are still thick-skinned!
"Gu Xiaoyou, what do you say?"
Daozu Jingxu ignored what everyone thought and looked at Gu Chen expectantly.
Gu Chen looked generous, "Senior Jingxu wants to borrow the heart-shaped stone, of course I will be happy to borrow it."
Just as Taoist Jingxu looked happy, Gu Chen changed the subject.
"But the heart-shaped stone does not belong to me. The Chou Emperor is the true descendant of the Heart Demon Dao Ancestor, and he has agreed to this."
Daozu Jingxu knew that it was better to beat around the bush and glared. "Just tell me directly. How can I be willing to borrow from you?"
"Senior Jingxu, if you are willing to give me the acting skills of Dameng, I believe Emperor Chou will not refuse you."
Gu Chen immediately put forward the conditions. The lion opened his mouth so loudly that the Chou Emperor was stunned.
"Boy, you are really greedy. If you can't help me find someone for you, you are trying to pass on my inheritance? He is not my disciple, why should I teach him the dream acting technique?"
Jingxu Daozu looked very dissatisfied.
"I believe that Senior Jingxu is not a person with sectarian views."
"You think highly of me. Besides, I have already mastered the Big Heart Magic. Borrowing the Heart-Shaped Stone is just the icing on the cake, but giving him the Big Dream Magic is just giving him timely help. No matter how you think about this deal, I will suffer a loss!"
Jingxu Daozu and Gu Chen began to bargain. One of them was the pinnacle Daozu, and the other was the Supreme Lord of the Overlord clan. However, they were very arrogant and did not give in. Everyone was dumbfounded.
Chen Daolin coughed twice, reminding the two of them to pay attention to the impact.
"That's good, I'll give you the Great Yuan Li Technique again, senior, so you won't suffer any loss, right?"
Gu Chen looked like he was giving in. When Jingxu Daozu heard about the Great Yuan Li Technique, he was immediately moved.
This is a great technique that even the masters have failed to master. Although it is completely different from the path he takes, you will definitely not suffer any loss if you master it!
"Okay, if that's the case, yes!"
Daozu Jingxu agreed, feeling that he had made a good deal, and his face was quite satisfied.
Gu Chen's friends present all looked strange. It sounded like Daozu Jingxu made a profit from this deal, but in fact, Gu Chen had already taught the Great Yuan Power Technique to all his friends, and almost everyone had a copy...
With the current alliance between the two parties, if Jingxu Daozu doesn't count against him, Gu Chen will send him away sooner or later...
"The difference between working day and night and working day and night, but both parties are satisfied..."
The Clay Bodhisattva admired Gu Chen so much that he fell to the ground and murmured in his heart.
"Ugly Emperor, is this okay?"
After discussing the conditions, Gu Chen turned to ask the Chou Emperor.
"Thank you, boss."
The Chou Emperor knew that Gu Chen went to such great lengths just to help him, and he was moved and grateful.
For a powerful ally like Daozu Jingxu, most people would rather let him suffer than take the risk of offending the other party.
