"Oh? What do you know that Fang Zhou doesn't? "Gu Chen tentatively asked.
"One day, Mu Chengfeng had a guest. I eavesdropped on their conversation. Fang Zhou doesn't know about this!"
Gu Xunfeng gritted his teeth. His words successfully aroused Gu Chen's interest.
"What kind of guest?"
"I didn't see the man's face, but I heard him and Mu Chengfeng say that the Immortal World itself is the greatest opportunity!"
"That's it? That's all? "
Gu Chen wanted to continue listening, but he didn't expect Gu Xunfeng to be speechless. He couldn't help but be stunned.
"I only heard this sentence. At that time, I didn't dare to stay for fear of being discovered."
Gu Xunfeng smiled bitterly.
"Are you kidding me?" Gu Chen's eyes narrowed.
"No, that's not what I mean!"
"Overlord, listen to my careful analysis. Although I only heard that sentence, the visiting guest is not simple. At that time, he seemed to be persuading Mu Chengfeng to make a move on the Immortal World Ruins."
"If I'm not wrong, it was that person who told the major forces that the Immortal World Ruins were about to appear. Mu Chengfeng asked us to collect specific immortal weapons after that person left."
"Even when Mu Chengfeng went to the gathering with the other outer realm geniuses, there must be his shadow!"
"So I think Overlord, as long as you find that person, no matter what you want to know, you will definitely know!"
Gu Xunfeng seemed to be desperate, saying whatever came to his mind, appearing incoherent.
Gu Chen's eyes gradually narrowed as he listened. It seemed that his guess was not wrong.
There was indeed a mastermind behind the whole thing, and Mu Chengfeng was just a chess piece. At best, he was a relatively useful chess piece.
"What else can you remember about that person?"
Gu Chen asked again.
"Mu Chengfeng seemed to call that person … 'Fellow Fang'?"
Gu Xunfeng said uncertainly.
Fellow Fang!
Gu Chen's pupils shrank slightly, and then the corners of his mouth curled up.
"This whole thing is really because of you, Fang Wen …"
Gu Chen murmured. Although he had already guessed it before, but now that Gu Xunfeng confirmed it, he was really sure of the identity of the enemy.
That Fang Wen had retreated without a fight during the battle at the Mystic Lady Palace. Gu Chen had always been unable to understand what he was thinking.
But now, it was almost certain that he didn't take action at that time because he had a bigger conspiracy.
The matter of the Netherworld Sparrow and Mu Chengfeng's actions here were practically all part of his huge conspiracy.
He had set up a big picture that included all the geniuses of the Outer Realm and most of the forces in the Ninth Realm.
Gu Chen couldn't help but close his eyes and pinch his fingers together to calculate.
He relied on the Dao of Karma to try and figure out the other party's true intentions.
Logically speaking, it was easy to deduce which side would benefit from the possible outcome of the appearance of the ruins. Logically speaking, it was easy to figure out the other's goal.
However, it was as if he was looking at the fog in the clouds. Regardless of the outcome of this chess game, it seemed like Fang Wen would be able to withdraw from it at any time and play any important role.
His true face was still blurry, and that was the scariest thing.
"Damn it, there are still too few clues."
Gu Chen couldn't figure anything out. He opened his eyes with a gloomy expression.
"Overlord, please spare my life. That Mu Chengfeng asked us to be in charge of collecting the Immortal Artifacts. After a while, he will definitely come back to us for them.
"Spare my life. Once he comes back, I will immediately tell you and help you be his spy!
"Also, I will try my best to convince my father to let the True Spirit Clan submit to the Celestial Court and fight for you!"
Gu Xunfeng talked non-stop, trying to find a reason for Gu Chen to spare his life.
Gu Chen listened with an indifferent expression. He chose his subordinates based on who they were.
The True Spirit Clan had long betrayed the Ninth Realm and defected to the Outer Realm. They were also inextricably linked to the death of the Desolate Emperor.
If he accepted the True Spirit Clan, how would he explain it to the Desolate God Clan?
Furthermore, the True Spirit Clan was treacherous and had once tried to kill their ally, the Desolate God Clan. It wouldn't be surprising if they betrayed him one day.
"Since you answered my questions truthfully, I will let you die a quick death."
Gu Chen suddenly pointed a finger and pierced the top of Gu Xunfeng's head, destroying his primordial spirit.
Because the attack was too fast, Gu Xunfeng didn't suffer too much pain and quietly died on the ground.
Gu Chen flicked two fireballs with his fingers and burned their bodies. At the same time, he took away their belongings, including the many Immortal Artifacts he had bought from Perfected Person Puji.
The shadow space disappeared, and Gu Chen appeared in the Sea Dipper Pavilion. The green ox calmly approached him.
"Master, have you found Mu Chengfeng's whereabouts?" it asked.
Gu Chen shook his head.
"Then what should we do now?" The green ox frowned. In that case, their trip was in vain.
"Mu Chengfeng went to meet with the other geniuses of the Outer Realm. When things are over, it is very likely that he will return to find Gu Xunfeng and the Rear Continent.
"You and I will pretend to be these two for a few days and see if we can catch him."
Gu Chen deliberated. In the situation where the clues were cut off, they could only do this for the time being.
Since those Immortal Artifacts were related to the ruins of the Immortal World, Mu Chengfeng would definitely come back to ask for them.
"Strange, the life and death carvings are the key to entering the ruins, and those Immortal Artifacts are related to the fortune in the ruins. What is this Fang Wen trying to do?"
The green ox listened to Gu Chen's interrogation, and his face was full of confusion.
Gu Chen also couldn't figure out the connection, and the phrase "the Immortal World itself is the greatest opportunity" was even more incomprehensible.
The two of them disguised themselves as Gu Xunfeng and Rear Continent that day. In order to prevent others from seeing through the flaws, they didn't change their original days of debauchery.
However, it was impossible for Gu Chen to have skin-to-skin contact with the women in the brothel, so he simply called these people into the attic and confused them with his Illusory Magic, making them think that he had sex with them.
In fact, they fainted after entering the pavilion, and when they woke up and left, they didn't know that they were under an illusion at all.
In this way, in the eyes of outsiders on Douluo Star, Gu Xunfeng and Rear Continent were still debauchery every day, and nothing unusual happened.
For many days, Mu Chengfeng didn't come to Douluo Star, but Taoist Master Puji came again.
He was extremely efficient, and in just a few days, he found another Immortal Artifact that met the requirements.
"Young Master Gu, Young Master Hou, the quality of the Immortal Artifact found this time is even higher than before, I guarantee …"
Taoist Master Puji boasted, and when he was ready to make a big profit, he looked up and saw Gu Chen and the green ox, and his expression suddenly froze.
A strange look flashed in his eyes, and his fists couldn't help but clench, and his palms broke out in cold sweat.
"I'll take it all."
Gu Chen imitated Gu Xunfeng's tone and said, just wanting to quickly send this Taoist Master Puji away.
Taoist Master Puji came back to his senses, and his words were a little hesitant.
"Then … then according to the original price, it's a deal."
The whole transaction process was very fast, and after Taoist Master Puji completed the transaction, he left in a panic.
"Master, there's something wrong with that guy."
After Taoist Master Puji left, the green ox immediately said.
When they first went upstairs, Taoist Master Puji was still normal, but when he saw their appearance, he became a little uneasy.
"Yes, it's a little strange."
Gu Chen was good at reading people's expressions, and naturally noticed this.
"Let's see what he's up to."
