Chapter 315 Help
Disciple of the headmaster of Yuxu Palace?
Yun Chen's eyebrows jumped violently.
When did Ruoruo get to know someone from Yuxu Palace?
How could she have the chance to come into contact with these sects?
An absurd but frightening thought came to his mind.
Could it be that... that girl is not Ruoruo at all?
"Where did they go?"
Seeing his expression change drastically, Chu He realized that something was wrong and quickly said, "Looking at the direction, he's heading towards Lingxiao City."
Lingxiao City...
Gu family.
Yun Chen quietly clenched his fists in his sleeves.
All clues seem to point to that place.
"correct."
Chu He seemed to suddenly remember something. He picked up the red invitation on the table and waved it in front of Yun Chen. "What's going on with your wedding with the Gu family?"
"Also, it says here that you are from Taixu Palace and from Tianyuan Xuanfu..."
"How come I don't know about this?"
"When did you become a member of our Tianyuan Xuanfu?"
Yun Chen's eyes swept across the invitation. When he saw the names of "senior disciple of Taixu Palace" and "daughter of the Gu family" listed side by side, he raised his eyebrows with no expression on his face.
Chu He stuffed the invitation directly into his hand.
Yun Chen took it, glanced at it casually, then shrugged and threw the invitation back on the table.
"It's not my fault."
"That old fellow Gu Fengyang just figured it all out on his own. I haven't admitted a single word of it."
"..."
The corners of Chu He's mouth twitched violently a few times.
Your own conjecture?
The head of the Gu family is bored and has nothing better to do than to imagine a son-in-law and cause a big uproar in the city?
This kid's words can really make people angry to death.
Yun Chen ignored his expression and changed the subject.
"Besides that girl, where is the man captured by Qingyun Sect?"
"where are you now?"
Since Ruoruo’s clues are temporarily cut off, let’s solve the biggest problem in front of us first.
Gu Hong.
Chu He gathered his chaotic thoughts and said in a deep voice, "In the dungeon of Qingyun Sect."
"I heard him say he had a grudge against you... so I didn't bother to save him."
He saved the girl for Yun Chen's sake.
As for Gu Hong, a Jindan stage cultivator who had a grudge against Yun Chen, there was no need for him to care.
"very good."
Yun Chen nodded and looked at Chu He.
"I'd like to trouble Lord Chu for a favor."
"What's the deal?"
Chu He became alert instinctively.
"Come with me to the Qingyun Sect dungeon."
"I know nothing about Qingyun Sect, so it will be much easier if you lead the way."
Yun Chen turned to look at Chu He and spoke.
"Go to the Qingyun Sect dungeon?"
Chu He's eyes almost popped out of his head. Without thinking, he shook his head: "No. Absolutely not."
"That old bastard Ling Xiaotian is fuming right now. Wouldn't it be a trap if we went there now?"
"I……"
Just as he was about to continue, Ying Qi, who had been standing silently behind Yun Chen, suddenly stepped forward and bowed to Chu He.
"Palace Master, the genius you are looking for who has successfully survived the tribulation is Mr. Yun."
"boom!"
"No one..."
Chu He was just halfway through his words when he suddenly stopped, as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning, and his mind went blank for a moment.
He suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Yun Chen.
A genius who has experienced disasters...
Is it him?
He... isn't he in the Foundation Establishment Stage?
Chu He's spiritual consciousness subconsciously swept towards Yun Chen. When he felt the vast and powerful true energy in Yun Chen's body, he froze.
Golden elixir.
The genuine Jindan stage.
Moreover, his aura was much more powerful than any early Jindan cultivator he had ever seen.
The Taoist sect issued a death order, requiring them to win over this genius at all costs and satisfy all his needs.
The hesitation on Chu He's face melted away instantly.
He slapped his thigh loudly.
"Go, of course."
"Don't even mention the Qingyun Sect dungeon. Even if it's a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I, Chu He, have braved it."
The attitude changed so quickly that Lin Wan'er, who was standing by, was stunned.
Yun Chen didn't react much to his change, just nodded lightly.
"Let's go without further ado."
He didn't want to wait any longer.
……
At the same time, Qingyun Sect.
The sect square was bustling with people.
All the Qingyun Sect disciples gathered here, pointing and talking at the center of the square.
In the center of the square, there is a wooden stake.
A man with disheveled hair was tied to a wooden stake.
He was dressed in rags and covered in blood, and it was obvious that he had been tortured.
It was Gu Hong.
The area around the wood pile was already filled with dry firewood, ready to start a raging fire at the command.
On the high platform, Ling Xiaotian was wearing a green robe of the sect leader and had a gloomy expression.
Zhao Xiruo was rescued right under his nose before, and he was very angry. Now he had to take it out on Gu Hong.
In addition, the scandal involving Elder Zhou's wife had made him a laughing stock and greatly damaged his prestige within the sect.
Now, he had to do something to save face.
Killing Gu Hong, the murderer of Elder Zhou, is undoubtedly the best choice.
He wants to make an example of someone.
"Ling Xiaotian."
Gu Hong, who was tied to a wooden stake, suddenly spoke.
"If you burn me to death today, you will regret it one day."
"regret?"
Ling Xiaotian seemed to have heard a huge joke. He stepped down from the platform and came in front of Gu Hong: "You dare to be stubborn even when you are about to die."
"What I regret most is that I didn't kill you with one slap."
"Don't worry, after you turn into ashes, I will send that little bastard named Yun Chen down to accompany you."
"You don't have that chance."
Gu Hong curled the corners of his mouth and revealed a sarcastic smile.
Ling Xiaotian turned around abruptly and roared at the law enforcement elder beside him.
"ignition."
"Yes."
The law enforcement elder responded immediately, and two disciples holding torches stepped forward quickly, ready to throw the torches into the firewood pile.
The atmosphere in the entire square suddenly became extremely tense.
However, at the critical moment when the torch was about to fall——
"Gu Fengyang, the Patriarch of the Lingxiao City Gu family, is here to visit the leader of the Qingyun Sect."
A voice full of energy and containing tremendous true energy rolled in from outside the mountain gate and instantly spread throughout the Qingyun Sect.
The two disciples who were about to light the fire froze and stopped subconsciously.
Everyone in the square looked towards the mountain gate.
Ling Xiaotian's brows were also furrowed tightly.
The Gu family of Lingxiao City has unfathomable strength.
What is he doing here at a time like this?
Moreover, his last name is also Gu...
Ling Xiaotian's heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously glanced at Gu Hong on the wooden stake.
Are they in the same group?
No, that's not right.
A fugitive, not even remotely related.
Just when he was in doubt and uncertainty, Gu Hong, who was tied to a wooden stake, finally revealed a hint of pride.
This expression made Ling Xiaotian even more angry.
What the fuck?
"metropolitan?"
The law enforcement elder asked in a low voice, his hand still hanging in the air, not knowing whether to light the fire or not.
"Wait a moment."
Ling Xiaotian gritted his teeth and squeezed out three words.
No matter how arrogant he was, he would not dare to openly offend the head of the Gu family in Lingxiao City before figuring out the situation.
