Qingniu bowed his head and kowtowed, calling Gu Chen master, which made him unable to recover for a long time.
"Your master is dead." Gu Chen responded coldly.
"Huangfu Qingming is not Lao Niu's master. Lao Niu only follows the prophesied Son of the Era. Lao Niu made a mistake before. Master, you are the real Son of the Era!"
Qing Niu quickly explained that he didn't even dare to stand up without Gu Chen speaking.
"Child of the Era? What is that?"
Gu Chen frowned, not understanding what Qing Niu said at all.
"The Son of the Era is a savior who is born only in every era. He is born with great destiny and is responsible for saving the universe! And Master, you are the savior!"
Qingniu's response made Gu Chen find it even more funny. He had never heard of the so-called era. He didn't know how many years of time it was. As for the universe, it was even more exaggerated. He had never even traveled across the Kunlun continent.
This green bull gave him the feeling that he was seriously ill. This kind of savior's remarks were somewhat similar to some cults such as the Aragami Sect, but in the prophecies of those in the Aragami Sect, he was a disaster star.
Seeing Gu Chen's distrustful look, Qingniu quickly explained that it was really not good for Gu Chen to see it kneeling, so let him get up first before talking.
After the green bull got up, it muttered, in short, that Gu Chen was the son of Ji Yuan, and it would follow and be loyal to him to the death.
"What do you think?"
Gu Chen looked at the white ape and asked for its opinion.
Bai Yuan rolled his eyes directly at Gu Chen, and Gu Chen immediately understood what it meant.
"Sorry, I can't take you in, and I don't need your following."
Gu Chen said coldly.
Qing Newton became anxious, "Why is this, Master, Lao Niu has magical powers and methods, nothing comparable to it..."
Qingniu looked at the white ape and originally wanted to say that he was no worse than it, but he swallowed his words in the end.
If this little white ape was the same as the one he knew, and he was just pretending to be crazy and acting stupid in front of it, he really wouldn't dare to say such things.
"First you recognized Huangfu Qingming as your master, and now that he has just been killed by me, you have come to seek refuge with me. Do you think I will trust you?"
Gu Chen said bluntly.
Qingniu was silent for a moment. It also knew that it had made a big mistake and it was extremely difficult to win Gu Chen's trust.
"To say the least, even if you come to me with no bad intentions, you can change your master at will because of your illusory luck. How do I know that one day I will meet someone with better luck than me and you won't betray me?"
Gu Chen added that in his opinion, this green bull was indeed something extraordinary, but he would not place such an unstable factor around him.
Qing Niu was speechless, with a deep look of disappointment in his eyes.
"Let's go. All living beings are equal. You don't need to recognize anyone as your master. You are your own master."
Gu Chen gave good advice.
A wry smile appeared on Qingniu's lips, knowing that now was really not the right time to recognize his master.
"Lao Niu understands, Lao Niu will make up for my mistakes, and one day my master will accept me."
After it finished speaking, it left in frustration, and Gu Chen shook his head.
From the tone of Qingniu's voice, it was clear that he hadn't given up yet.
…
The Luoyang Martial Arts Tournament came to an end, and the forces of the three religions and nine streams left this prosperous imperial capital one after another.
For many days, Gu Chen stayed at home with his mother, while paying attention to the activities of the Huangfu family.
Although the Huangfu family seemed to have suffered a major blow, the Centipede Insects were still alive, not to mention that they were far from dead. Huangfu Wuji still had such a terrifying power as the Hades Palace in his hands.
Gu Chen had been on guard, fearing that Huangfu Wuji would send a large number of killers to assassinate him if he became angry.
But for several days in a row, surprisingly, none of the killers from Hades Palace showed up. Instead, some lunatics were captured.
Some madmen forced their way into the mansion where he lived and tried to harm him, but they were captured in time by the Heavenly Killer.
Gu Chen originally treated him seriously and interrogated him personally, but after interrogation, he discovered that these people were actually followers of the Huangshen Sect. They had believed the rumors that he was a disaster star and wanted to kill him to save all sentient beings.
This left Gu Chen speechless, and once again realized how crazy the teachings of the Wild God Sect were.
You must know that the strongest of these madmen is only in the Nirvana realm, and the weakest are only mortals, but they dare to assassinate him, a noble Taoist in heaven. Their courage cannot be described as commendable.
Except for the farce caused by the followers of the Huangshen Sect, Gu Chen's life was very peaceful, as if the Huangfu family had completely forgotten about his enemy.
During this period, he actually met many new friends, from all the major forces in Kyushu. Because of his reputation as the overlord, he wanted to make friends.
Gu Chen doesn't refuse anyone who comes. The Huangfu family has not yet been destroyed, so he needs to unite all available forces.
After nearly half a month like this, Qinglin Killer God appeared in front of him and said goodbye to him.
The God of Death and many heavenly killers have been squatting in the imperial capital for a long time, guarding the Huangfu family. However, the Huangfu family seems to be depressed and extremely quiet.
According to the news received by Heavenly Court from various channels, the killers of Hades Palace in various places are as usual and have not received any unusual news from Hades.
In this case, Qinglin Killer God has his own affairs to be busy with, and many killers in Heaven cannot stay in Luoyang all the time, so they must leave.
"I'm leaving now. Although the Huangfu family doesn't dare to touch you easily at the moment, the imperial capital is a place of right and wrong after all. It's best for you to leave as soon as possible. Huangfu Wuji is not a person who is willing to give up. The more tolerant he is, the more vigilant you need to be.
"
Qinglin Killer God gave some careful instructions before leaving, and Gu Chen nodded seriously.
"By the way, Heavenly Court has received information that Huangfu Wuji's fourth son, Huangfude, left the imperial capital with a large number of people two days ago. This is the biggest news in the Huangfu family in recent days. You may be interested."
Qinglin God of Killing remembered it and mentioned it casually.
"Huangfude?"
Gu Chen's eyes couldn't help but narrowed, and a cold light suddenly appeared.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Qinglin, the God of Killing, left immediately. He came suddenly and left in a hurry. It was like a dragon that saw its beginning but not its end.
After he left, Gu Chen's mind became more active.
Huangfude's departure from the imperial capital was a good opportunity for him.
More than three years ago, his father Gu Tianming left their mother and son, and it was Huangfude who led a large number of troops to hunt him down.
After that, his father completely disappeared and there is no news about him to this day.
When Huangfude was in the imperial capital, it was difficult for Gu Chen to take action against him, but if he left here, there would be much to do.
This time, there may be hope of finding out the truth behind his father's disappearance.
Gu Chen immediately decided to follow Huang Fude and it was time to leave the imperial capital.
However, before leaving the imperial capital, there were some people and things that had to be explained. Gu Chen decided to send out assassins to inquire about Huang Fude's situation first, while he delayed his departure for two days.
Before leaving the imperial capital, the first thing Gu Chen needed to consider was how to settle his mother.
Now that his mother has moved out of the Shen Mansion, he is worried about letting her stay alone in the imperial capital, and it would be inappropriate for her to move back to the Shen Mansion.
Gu Chen found his mother and took the initiative to discuss his next plan with her.
