"The Twelve Immortal Sects have all kept silent, but these days, we can occasionally see the elders of each sect appearing in the Deep Demonic Sea."
Gu Bing's answer made Gu Chen feel even more strange. The Twelve Immortals Sect didn't mediate the conflict between the two major forces. Why?
Gu Chen intuitively felt that there was something fishy going on here, and it must be related to Zuo Chunqiu, but Gu Bing was not strong enough, so he couldn't see the real situation clearly.
"Find a way to arrange it for me. I want to meet cousin Lian Yue." Gu Chen said.
He saw the ancestors of the Gu family outside the Tiankeng. Gu Chen was very concerned about why they were there, and he couldn't ignore what they said.
The only way to know about these things is through the top brass of the Gu clan, and among the top brass, the only one Gu Chen can trust now is cousin Lian Yue.
Gu Bing nodded and immediately followed Gu Chen's instructions.
While Gu Chen and Gu Bing were talking, in the ancient city of Lukang, many forces from the Deep Demon Sea, such as Wicked Ridge, Hornet Valley, Feng Mo Hall, etc., gathered together and were having a fierce quarrel.
"Didn't you hear what Fellow Daoist Ruan said? The number and strength of the ancient corpses are even greater than our original estimate. There is only one death left, so we can only choose to escape!"
"Where can we escape? The Deep Demon Overseas is the territory of the Thirteen Immortals Sect, and there is no place for us at all!"
"With the combined strength of all of us, we will definitely be able to bite off a piece of meat from the Thirteen Immortal Sect!"
"The Thirteen Immortals Sect has the power of the Cave Heaven Realm. We can't snatch the territory from them at all! If we could, we wouldn't huddle in this damn deep demon sea!"
"Damn! If you stay, you will die. If you leave, you will die. So what should we do?"
The leaders of various forces realized that they had no way out, and they all felt desperate.
"There is someone who can help us."
When everyone was at a loss, an old man with a huge head walked in from outside the hall.
"Die Datou, why did you come here now?"
"We have been gathering in the ancient city of Lukang for so many days, and you have been hiding in your shabby tavern. Why do you think of it now?"
The leaders of various forces were very dissatisfied when they saw Mo Datou. The other party also had a group of good people who were particularly good at intelligence gathering and were considered the number one figure in this deep demonic sea.
Over the past few days, they have been asking him to come and discuss the tide of ancient corpses, but he has refused to show up until today.
"Forgive me, everyone, the time has not come before, and if I come, it will be a waste of time, so I won't come."
Mo Datou smiled and said hello to the eight villains in the hall.
"You mean the time has come now? Do you have an idea about the current situation?" Everyone's eyes lit up.
Mo Datou paced back and forth in the hall and said slowly. "The current situation is that if we don't leave the Deep Demonic Sea, we may be overwhelmed by the tide of ancient corpses. If we leave, we may be destroyed by the Thirteen Immortal Sect. It's a dilemma."
"To solve the current dilemma is very simple, the only choice is to hug a big tree."
"What you said is easy. Most of us have offended the Thirteen Immortals Sect to death. Where is there a big tree for us to hug?"
Many leaders said helplessly.
"Have you forgotten that after the Immortal Ascension Festival, a new force emerged on the mainland?" Mo Datou said meaningfully.
"Are you talking about Wudian?"
Everyone was lost in thought. The news that Wu Lingxian singled out the leaders of the major immortal sects at the Immortal Ascension Festival had long been spread in the Deep Demon Sea, and they were so impressed that they fell into admiration.
In so many years, this was the first time that someone could single-handedly put the Thirteen Immortal Sect into such a miserable state.
At this moment, Mo Datou mentioned it, and everyone was thinking about the possibility of joining the Martial Palace.
"Although the Martial Palace is strong, they have ceased operations since the Immortal Ascension Ceremony, and we have no way of contacting them." One person raised a key question.
"The deputy master of the Martial Palace, Gu Chen, the first genius of the Fairy Continent, is in the Deep Demon Sea at the moment. As long as you take refuge with him, doesn't it mean you have joined the Martial Palace?" Mo Datou said with a smile.
"Is this true? Where is he?" The leaders of each force showed their emotions.
Tianjiao Gu Chen and the others also knew that a fierce man who had rarely been seen in the Fairy Continent for thousands or even ten thousand years had single-handedly provoked the nine great Tianjiao and made the Thirteen Immortal Sects very upset.
A month ago, he appeared in the ancient city of Lukang and escaped calmly in front of the Gu clan leader, even injuring him. This spread spread and made people even more admirable.
In the current situation, if they can take refuge in such a person, their safety will indeed be guaranteed.
"Where is Fellow Daoist Gu, I have to ask everyone at Wicked Ridge."
Mo Datou looked at his old friends with a smile.
"You guys, Datou, have you been thinking about this all the time?"
When Ruan Ji, Mr. Tan and others saw Mo Datou like this, they realized why the other party asked Gu Chen to rescue them before. It turned out that he had already planned this!
"Some of you have already been in contact with Daoist Fellow Gu. You might as well tell everyone about him so that everyone can make a judgment."
"Everyone will make a choice after listening. If you decide to seek refuge with fellow Taoist Gu, it's still too late to go find him."
After Mo Datou finished his suggestion, he found a place to sit down and stopped talking.
The eight villains and the many Dharmakayas who had been rescued by Gu Chen before looked at each other in confusion, and spoke one after another to explain what they had learned about this person.
In particular, the Eight Great Evils have been with Gu Chen for a month. They can be said to be friends in times of need. They understand his character quite well and gave a comprehensive explanation.
After half a day, the meeting in the Deep Demonic Sea came to an end.
"Everyone already understands the pros and cons of joining the Martial Palace, and we also have a full understanding of Gu Chen."
"We don't have much time, so let's vote here. Those who agree to follow Wu Dian and those who follow Gu Chen will raise their hands, and those who disagree will stand still."
"When we make a decision, we will go together to convince other fellow Taoists who have not yet arrived."
After the Valley Master of the Hornet Valley finished speaking, the leaders of all parties looked at each other.
"I agree with this decision."
Unexpectedly, the first person who agreed to follow Wu Dian was not the villain Ling who said a lot of good things, but was actually the representative war ghost of the Deep Demon Hall.
His move touched everyone. Zhan Gui has always been a guy who is unwilling to submit to others. I didn't expect him to be the first to agree to this!
Everyone was moved, but they didn't know what Zhan Gui was really thinking right now.
"I have been banned from life and death for a long time. If you don't want to follow me, you have to follow me. It's better to drag all the forces in the Deep Demon Sea into the water. If Gu Chen becomes the leader of the Deep Demon Sea, I will be his most trustworthy subordinate!"
"We also agree with this decision." Ruan Ji from Weiren Ridge spoke immediately after Feng Mo Tang.
If you have to take refuge in one person, it is better to take refuge in that boy than in the Thirteen Immortals Sect.
Seeing that such powerful forces as Feng Mo Hall and Evil Ridge agreed, other forces spoke one after another.
"Second!" "Second!"
All the forces present made a unanimous judgment and decided the future fate of the Deep Demonic Sea.
"Now that everyone has made a decision, it's time to meet our common boss and see if he is willing to take us in."
Mo Datou stood up from his position, his eyes showing anticipation.
