When Gu Chen and White Ape first met, it was just an intelligent innate monster in the forbidden forest.
After that, one person and one ape depended on each other for life, and they went through many difficulties together, and the talents displayed by the white ape became more and more extraordinary.
Gu Chen gradually realized that the little guy's bloodline was not simple, and he might have a great background.
It's just that the little guy has been growing up in the forbidden forest since he was a child. Gu Chen asked about his life experience, but he himself was confused and knew nothing about it.
A few days ago, the demon king had spoken out, telling people not to touch the white ape. He knew that, and today he led a group of demons to protect him, and it was even more obvious that he was doing it for the white ape.
The Demon King treats White Ape in such a different light, if it is just because he is a member of the demon clan, this is really unjustifiable.
Therefore, Gu Chen boldly guessed that the Demon King might know the origin of the White Ape!
Sun Jinming was not surprised when he heard Gu Chen's question, he just shook his head slowly.
"This matter is very complicated. I, Sun, can tell you, but even I can't give you an accurate answer."
"You just need to know that this little guy is special. Since he chooses to be with you, you should treat him well."
"If one day you really want to know more, go to Nanling."
Sun Jinming said it but didn't say it. Gu Chen thought about it for a moment and nodded without asking any more questions.
Anyway, no matter what, he already regarded the white ape as a relative. The reason why he asked this was just to know if it still had family members alive.
Gu Chen left the Demon King's residence and just walked out of the woods. A young man stood in front of him holding a sword, with a dull expression, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"It seems that you can avoid the Demon King's battle, but you can't avoid Brother Qi."
Gu Chen smiled freely.
"Take action!"
Qi Zeyan's sword was unsheathed, with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.
Previously, Gu Chen defeated six kings with one blow, and he wanted to go forward to fight, but there were too many people at the time, so he was afraid of getting in the way.
"Okay, in order to thank Brother Qi, I will do my best."
Gu Chen looked solemn and did not refuse Qi Zeyan's request.
This time, Qi Zeyan helped him a lot when he broke through to the king's realm, and he also admired the other party's character.
When dealing with such a persistent swordsman, Gu Chen had no reason to avoid fighting, and he was not allowed to let himself go. That was an insult to the swordsman!
He flipped his hand, and the whale-killing knife appeared in his hand.
This black knife weighing 20 million kilograms felt very awkward in my hand before, but now, it feels much more relaxed.
With this breakthrough in cultivation, his physical body was completely transformed again. In terms of strength, Gu Chen's immortal golden body already weighed 90 million kilograms per arm.
The physical strength of 90 million kilograms is astonishing. Combined with the whale-killing knife, the destructive power is incalculable...
One person holds the sword and the other person holds the knife.
The wind blows, and the figures of both sides pass each other!
After a while, Gu Chen strode away, and Qi Zeyan was lying on the ground with his feet in the air, his hands trembling due to excessive exertion, and the sword had already been broken.
"Too strong..."
Qi Zeyan murmured that he actually already knew the outcome of this battle, but with his character, he would give it a try no matter how strong his opponent was.
He closed his eyes and was not discouraged. Although the battle was a disastrous defeat, he also gained some unexpected gains.
"What a scary guy. If you don't work hard, you might be surpassed by him next time."
On the way to leave, Gu Chen lamented that although he won, Qi Zeyan's pure pursuit of swordsmanship deeply touched him and he regarded him as a respectable opponent.
At the entrance of Zhenwu Academy, the Qinglin God of Killing was sitting on a unicorn and had been waiting for Gu Chen for a long time.
"Let's go back to the Heavenly Palace!"
As soon as Gu Chen arrived, the sacred unicorn looked up to the sky and roared, its four hooves flew into the sky, and it rose into the sky.
Amidst the roar of the holy beast, Gu Chen and Qinglin Killer God left, and a large number of teachers and students in Zhenwu Academy saw this scene.
"This scourge is finally gone."
Mu Ziyu looked at Gu Chen's back in the distance and murmured, feeling a little lost for some reason.
Ye Qingshuang stared at the sky for a long time, waited until Gu Chen's back completely disappeared, then turned around and left.
"Whether you are him or not, I, Ye Qingshuang, will never lose to you..."
She knew that what awaited her next would be more severe training. Only in this way could she not be completely distanced by that person.
…
High in the sky, Qinglin Killer God and Gu Chen flew side by side, and the two started chatting.
"Senior, now you should tell me what the benefits of the Zhuzi Banquet are. You seem to be very supportive of me participating in the heaven-sacrifice ceremony of the royal family of China." Gu Chen asked.
"The Heaven-Sacrifice Ceremony of the Chinese royal family is only held once every five years. At that time, there will be a banquet of hundreds of officials and a banquet of princes. Only a very small number of young talents can qualify for this banquet of princes."
"The Zhuzi Banquet itself is nothing special, it is nothing more than a banquet, but those who have obtained this qualification will have the opportunity to enter the Secret Land of Ten Thousand Dragons together with the descendants of the royal family during the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony."
Qinglin Killing God explained.
"Secret Land of Ten Thousand Dragons? What is that place? A secret realm?" Gu Chen asked curiously.
"Strictly speaking, it is not a secret realm. It is a half-real and half-illusory place. Have you ever heard of the Kunlun Mirror?"
Gu Chen nodded, "I have read in books that the Kunlun Mirror is a national treasure of the royal family of China. It is said that the founding emperor brought it from the infamous Kunlun Ruins."
"Yes, it seems that your stay in Zhenwu Academy for the past two months has not been in vain."
Qinglin Killing God nodded, "The Secret Land of Ten Thousand Dragons is a strange world in the Kunlun Mirror. For example, you were pulled into the mysterious world by the time stone, right? The Secret Land of Ten Thousand Dragons is similar to that. Everyone who enters is
There are huge benefits to be gained.”
Gu Chen suddenly realized that in this case, the reward from the Emperor's Favor was too generous!
"Senior, the Kunlun Mirror is a treasure of the royal family, so the Secret Land of Ten Thousand Dragons is very important to the royal family, right? Why give me such a generous reward for a heavenly killer?"
This thing is a bit strange. Even if I deserve the Imperial Favor Award at this grand event, there is no need for the royal family to spend so much blood, right?
What's more, in his own opinion, this imperial reward was an unexpected surprise.
"Hey, I have always heard that the prince of the Middle-earth royal family is gentle and modest, and is not good at strategizing. But judging from his boldness in awarding the imperial favor to you this time, he is not as easy to deal with as rumored."
Qinglin Killer God smiled.
"Chen Gu, do you know why I asked you to accept this generous reward?"
"Isn't it because this reward is precious and it would be a pity to miss it?"
Gu Chen said thoughtfully.
"This is also the reason, but the main reason is that God asked me to do this!"
"The Emperor's idea?"
Gu Chen's eyes flashed.
"The Emperor of Heaven sees you this time not just because you have just been promoted to Daozi, but because he has something more important to tell you. Please be mentally prepared."
Qinglin God of Killing reminded him, and as he spoke, the two of them had already entered the Qingzhou Branch of the Heavenly Court.
