He cursed people to death as soon as they met. Xiao Jing's words surprised everyone at the table.
Gu Chen narrowed his eyes, and this person could see at a glance that he did not have much life left.
"I see that my fellow Taoist has a strong body and an extremely young appearance. He should be full of energy, but the Niwan Palace between his eyebrows is filled with a dead air. This is a sign of people who are approaching the end of their lifespan. It's strange," he said.
Friend, what have you experienced?"
Xiao Jing looked at Gu Chen carefully, the confusion in his eyes gradually getting worse.
He caught sight of Gu Chen at the table just now and thought he was a little special, so he deliberately chose to sit next to him.
But when he got closer and took a closer look, the more he looked, the more shocked he became. The other person's body was like a mist, so confusing that he couldn't see through it in one go.
"Didn't your elders teach you how to be polite when meeting others for the first time?"
Gu Chen said calmly.
Xiao Jing was stunned and couldn't help but laugh. "I'm rude, my name is Xiao Jing, and you don't know your friend's surname?"
Gu Chen ignored him and just picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip.
Xiao Jing was slightly embarrassed for a moment, his eyes turned cold, this person has such a big air!
"Brother Xiao, this is fellow Taoist Gu Chen from the Gu clan." Ding Yao took the initiative to speak, easing his embarrassment.
"A member of the Gu clan?"
Xiao Jing was even more surprised now, staring at Gu Chen with confusion on his face.
"Squeak!"
Bai Yuan was unhappy with being stared at Gu Chen without saying a word, and waved his paw at Xiao Jing in a demonstrative manner.
Only then did Xiao Jing notice the white ape, and he was surprised when he looked at it. "What is the origin of this kind of spiritual beast? It seems that I have never seen it before!"
There were ripples in his heart. Whether it was Gu Chen or Bai Yuan, he felt uncertain.
This is something that is rarely encountered among people of the same age!
"You'd better calm down your eyes."
After being stared at for so long, even if Gu Chen didn't like to cause trouble, he felt a little angry. He raised his head, his eyes were as cold as a thousand-year cold pool.
Meeting this look, Xiao Jing's pupils suddenly shrank.
This person is not simple!
He quickly averted his gaze, pretending not to care, but in his heart he became more and more curious about the Gu clan.
"Why are you here, Brother Xiao? Isn't Tiandao Sect always not interested in the Haitian Feast?"
someone at the table asked.
"I heard that the reward from Penglai Island Master this time is extraordinary. It's really hard to resist." Xiao Jing said with a smile.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Xiao, do you know what this year's rewards are specifically?" Everyone became very curious after hearing this.
For the feast of the sea and sky that happens every ten years, the rewards given by the owners of Penglai Island are extremely generous, so they come all the way here.
Moreover, he cherishes talents, and usually prizes are particularly useful to young monks, making them even more attractive.
However, the owner of Penglai Island has always kept the contents of the prize strictly confidential and will not know about it until the last moment.
"I won't tell you what it is specifically, so that you won't have to fight tooth and nail to compete with me, which will be very uneconomical."
Xiao Jing showed a mysterious smile and refused to say anything, which immediately made everyone hate him.
It is indeed this guy's style to deliberately leak a little bit of news without saying much about it.
The point is that what this guy said may not be the truth. Maybe he doesn't even know what the reward is, and he just wants to inspire them to fight with all their strength so that he can watch the show.
"It's not unusual for me to come here. It's strange for Taoist Fellow Gu to come here."
"As we all know, the cultivation path taken by the Gu clan is unique. The reward from the Penglai Island Master is very little attractive to them. Therefore, although they will receive invitations to every Haitian feast, they have never received it.
People will come, but why is this year an exception?”
Xiao Jing brought the topic to Gu Chen, clearly still thinking about him and wanting to know more about him through words.
Seeing everyone staring at him, Gu Chen responded calmly. "It's just a coincidence."
The answer was ambiguous, and no one asked in detail. Xiao Jing's eyes showed regret.
Everyone continued to exchange their cultivation experiences. During this period, more and more monks gathered on Penglai Mountain.
"Why is that guy sitting there?"
When Zhuang Fan, Taoist Ma and other six companions came to the dojo, they were shocked to see Gu Chen sitting very close to Penglai Pavilion.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, does that boy have any special origins?"
Everyone couldn't help but ask Zhuang Fan if they wanted to know that everyone who could sit at that table was a true descendant of the Immortal Sect, and their backgrounds were terrifying.
For overseas casual cultivators like them, let alone sitting at that table, it would be nice to have a seat in the corner of the dojo!
"This... Fellow Taoist Gu said that he is just a loose cultivator overseas and has no family or sect." Zhuang Fan also looked confused.
"How can a casual cultivator with no family or sect receive such high courtesy from Penglai Mountain?"
Taoist Aunt Ma looked very ugly. A person who had just been abandoned by them was treated as a distinguished guest at the Haitian Banquet the next moment. She was on an equal footing with a group of upper-class monks who they might never interact with in their lives. This gap was really huge!
"Maybe he hid his true identity from fellow Taoist Zhuang, but he actually has a lot of background." A companion guessed.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart sank. If so, wouldn't they have offended someone they shouldn't have offended?
Not only that, I'm afraid they have also missed an opportunity. The children of such a powerful force, even just walking with them, can bring them many intangible benefits.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang said his surname was Gu, right?" Another companion's face turned pale.
"But he said he has nothing to do with the Gu clan." After Zhuang Fan finished speaking, his eyes showed deep annoyance.
If you say it doesn't matter, does it really mean it doesn't matter?
Maybe it’s just that the other person doesn’t want to talk about his family!
Now the seven of them felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles sitting in their seats, and felt very uncomfortable.
Especially Taoist Aunt Ma, who once spoke to offend Gu Chen, was even more uneasy now, keeping her head down for fear of being discovered by Gu Chen.
In fact, the dojo was too big and there were so many people here right now. Not to mention that Gu Chen didn't notice her at all. Even if he did, he didn't bother to pay attention to her.
As Gu Chen said, she was not in the same realm at all, so how could he try to embarrass her? It was just a loss of self-worth.
When the dojo was packed with people and the crowd was buzzing, the door of Penglai Pavilion slowly opened.
All the guests who came to attend the Haitian Feast became quiet and looked expectantly.
Although the Lord of Penglai Island appears once every ten years, he still feels excited every time he sees many monks.
After all, in Penglai Island, the owner of Penglai Island has a very lofty status.
He is famous at home and abroad, his strength is unpredictable, and he is the top powerhouse in this field.
The most important thing is that he has always had a reputation for cherishing talents, and he is generous and generous in his dealings. Anyone who can catch his eye will have amazing fortunes.
For many monks, this feast of sea and sky is an opportunity to change their destiny. Everyone is looking forward to being turned into gold by the master of Penglai Island!
