The smile on Huang Pingzhang's face suddenly stopped, and everyone in the Huang family fell silent.
Huang Fei lowered her head shyly, but when she noticed that the surroundings suddenly became quiet, she couldn't help but raise her head, and happened to see Gu Chen speaking.
"I am determined to practice cultivation. I am not interested in men and women at the moment. I can only disappoint the old family master Huang. Miss Huang is a very good person and should find a better home."
Gu Chen was telling the truth. He had a blood feud, so how could he care about a man and a woman? He wished he could spend every breath of his time practicing.
He also understood the Huang family's intention, but it was just a marriage of interest, so he was even less likely to accept it.
For him, the Huang family is just a temporary place to stay, and he cannot settle down forever.
"I see."
Huang Pingzhang was a little regretful, but there was no displeasure on his face. "Fellow Daoist Chen can cultivate to this level at such a young age, and being focused is indeed a very important factor. I was too abrupt."
"It's not urgent, it's not urgent. Who knows what will happen in a few years?"
He said haha, and the Huang family laughed, but the atmosphere was obviously much more awkward.
Concubine Huang's eyes were filled with mist, and she pursed her lips tightly without saying a word.
Gu Chen left in a somewhat embarrassing atmosphere that day, and the Huang family defeated the Lan family, so they came out in full force that day and started a full-scale bloodbath against the Lan family members in Tanlang City!
This was a brutal massacre, with the winner being king and the loser being bandits. The Huang family quickly took over all the Lan family's properties with iron-blooded means, including those they had previously acquired from the Qian family.
When night fell, the fact that the Huang family had become the largest force in Tanlang City had spread throughout the city, catching everyone's attention.
The reputation of the young man worshiping Chen Gu spread even further, making people lament that the Huang family was so lucky that they even found themselves near such a big tree.
Late at night, in Gu Chen's yard.
I don't know where the white ape went wild again. Gu Chen was lying on a chair, flipping through a yellow leather diary with elegant handwriting.
This diary was left by the deceased Zheng Li. She had a habit of writing down stories in her daily life. The origins of the Zheng brothers and sisters revealed in it are somewhat special.
"It turns out that the Zheng family brothers and sisters are actually disciples of the Yin Yang Sword Sect in Youzhou, the Middle Earth Empire. They were wanted by the Yin Yang Sword Sect for stealing the secret treasure that they were supposed to transport to the sect, so they concealed their names and fled to the White Whale Mansion.
"
Gu Chen murmured that when he first met the Zheng brothers and sisters, their temperaments were a little different from ordinary casual cultivators, and this could also be seen in the battle during the day.
This diary explained his doubts very well. The two brothers and sisters were really bold and would not hesitate to become desperadoes in order to plot the secret treasure.
It's a pity that they never expected that Tanlang City, which was originally just a temporary hiding place, would eventually become their burial place.
"Speaking of which, these two people are really stupid. They stole the secret treasure but couldn't even figure out its purpose."
Gu Chen gently tossed a simple black small tripod with his other hand, admiring it curiously.
This small cauldron is the secret treasure of the Yin Yang Sword Sect that was stolen by the Zheng brothers and sisters. Unfortunately, they stole it, but they were completely unable to understand the mystery of the secret treasure, and they couldn't even figure out its specific use.
Gu Chen had just checked it over and over again, but he didn't find anything special about this small tripod.
It wasn't even a magic weapon. Gu Chen tried to penetrate it with his spiritual consciousness, trying to leave a mark and control it.
But I found that once any spiritual consciousness entered it, it was like a cow in the mud, without any reaction.
So this thing seemed to him to be useless, not as good as other gains.
The storage rings of the four monks contained abundant elixir resources, which together were about three times that of Qian Fengbao.
If he sells the magic weapons and materials that Gu Chen can't use, he can probably get a lot of elixirs.
"Last time, all the resources of the Qian family barely allowed me to reach the peak of my mid-level magical powers from the beginning. The further I practice, the more money I spend."
Gu Chen estimated that he planned to sell all the useless things in the storage rings of the four monks and exchange them for pills. That was the most important thing to him.
Relying on these elixirs, he will definitely be able to enter the late stage of supernatural power. Whether he can reach the perfection of supernatural power depends on luck.
"Um?"
Just as Gu Chen was thinking about it, the hairs suddenly rose all over his body, and there was a sudden murderous intention that locked onto him!
His expression changed, and he almost immediately jumped up from the chair, and the next moment, the chair was smashed to pieces by a spear!
Whoosh~~~
A pale white spear light swayed and came towards me again, like a dragon emerging from the abyss!
Gu Chenren was in mid-air, caught off guard and unable to dodge. With a thought, a pair of blue wings as thin as cicada wings appeared behind him.
Swish.
Feng Xing flapped his wings and moved half a foot. Gu Chen dodged the gun light, glided in the air and landed on the eaves.
His expression darkened, he looked at a figure holding a gun coming out of the darkness, and narrowed his eyes.
The sneak attacker in front of me was eight feet tall and very powerful. He was wearing a night jacket. With the gun in his hand, he seemed to have the world under his control.
"Who are you?" Gu Chen asked calmly.
The man wore a mask and did not answer. His body glowed with colored mist, leaving behind a phantom that traveled across the void and arrived in the blink of an eye!
Gu Chen's expression turned cold, he turned over his hand and took out the Hongtai epee, "Clang——"
The heavy sword collided with the spear, and Gu Chen's mouth was numb!
It wasn't that his strength was not as good as his opponent's, but that his opponent's gun contained a certain amount of skill, and he suffered a loss without realizing it.
Whoosh whoosh!
The man in black waved his spear frequently, like a dragon tumbling over the river.
Gu Chen jumped up, and the roof was shattered by the gun light.
Wind Sword Technique!
Fiery Sword Technique!
Gu Chen waved his sword repeatedly, and wind blades and fire slashes fell overwhelmingly.
The man in black was hidden in the mist of light. His figure swayed a few times, and he was so close that he dodged easily.
Whoosh!
He approached Gu Chen again, and the gun light pierced the air.
Gu Chenfeng flapped his wings to avoid the shot and fell to the ground.
The man in black chased after him almost immediately, his movements as fast as light and lightning.
Gu Chen snorted coldly, used his Nether Body Technique, blended into the darkness, and circled with the opponent.
Bang! Boom!
The heavy sword and the spear collided frequently, and sparks flew everywhere.
The opponent's marksmanship was very sharp and he hit the snake seven inches at every turn. Gu Chen felt it was difficult, so he changed his sword moves and used the shadow sword technique!
This is the most advanced swordsmanship he has mastered, ranking among the top yellow levels. He has never used it even when he was dealing with four monks during the day.
But now in order to deal with the man in black, we have to use it!
Hongtai's heavy sword turned into a black shadow, flickering bright and dark, fast and slow, and the trajectory of the sword was as elusive as a ghost.
Suddenly, the gap between the two sides narrowed, and they were evenly matched!
The noise of the fighting was so loud that people in the Huang Mansion in the distance quickly sensed it and heard rapid footsteps.
Whoosh.
When the man in black saw this, he shot Gu Chen away with one shot and retreated into the dark corner of the courtyard!
"You can't run away."
Gu Chen slashed with his big sword, and the sword light hit the opponent's clothes.
The opponent's body was filled with colorful light mist, twisted, and disappeared in place!
