Chapter 1284

"When the Xing County opened the Ninth World's trial, they wanted to recruit talents from the Hundred Realms, especially those who could be used on the battlefield.

"However, as a Genesis Master, the Fang Clan has never been interested in fighting and killing. Hence, they were not interested in the trial.

"According to the usual practice of other realms, the son of the Clan Head should have been sent to the Ninth World. However, I rejected it, so the Clan Head chose someone else.

"Cousin Fang Wen was the one who volunteered to join the trial. Before that, he had always been mediocre in our clan. Even now, I still can't believe that he did those things in the Ninth World. "

Fang Shijie's words surprised Gu Chen. Fang Shijie clearly meant that Fang Wen had never been an important member of the clan, so the Fang Clan did not care much about his death.

Gu Chen recalled what he had learned about Fang Wen from the other Outer Realm geniuses. When the Outer Realm Hundred Seedlings had first arrived in the Ninth World, Fang Wen had indeed been an ordinary person.

He had risen to prominence later on and had not been taken seriously.

"Even if Fang Wen had been ordinary in your clan, his potential was shocking. In just two years, he had surpassed the geniuses of the Hundred Realms in the Ninth World. Doesn't your clan feel sorry for his death?"

Gu Chen asked in confusion.

"Cousin Fang Wen's potential was indeed unexpected. It would be a bit of a pity, but we are more grateful to Lord Gu for his death," Fang Shijie replied.

"Grateful to me?" Gu Chen felt that it was ridiculous.

"That's right. Although Cousin Fang Wen was talented, the things he did in the Ninth World were too extreme."

"Although most of the geniuses from the Hundred Realms died at Lord Gu's hands, their deaths were closely related to Cousin Fang Wen. This could not be hidden from the Emperor of the Hundred Realms."

"The geniuses from the Hundred Realms died because of Cousin Fang Wen's schemes. If Cousin Fang Wen had not died in the Ninth World, the Fang Clan would have been in a lot of trouble."

Gu Chen understood and fell into deep thought.

Fang Wen had not only schemed against the cultivators of the Ninth World but also all the geniuses from the Outer Realm in order to obtain the opportunities in the Tomb of the Heavenly Emperor.

It was precisely because of his schemes that the geniuses of the Hundred Realms had died tragically at the hands of Gu Chen.

It wasn't just that time. During the battle at Mystic Lady Palace, Thunder Firmament and Daoist Jade's deaths were also inextricably linked to him.

If he walked out of the Ninth Realm alive, then the Fang Family would definitely be in a difficult position as to whether or not to protect him.

If they protected him, they might offend the Emperor of the Hundred Realms. Even if the Fang Clan was powerful, there would be endless troubles in the future.

Because he had died in the Ninth Realm, the hatred of the Emperor of the Hundred Realms had been transferred to Gu Chen. As a result, the Fang Family had received much less blame.

Furthermore, considering the fact that Fang Wen was not the successor that the Fang Clan valued the most, his death would not make the Fang Clan feel too bad.

Gu Chen understood the ins and outs of the matter and gained a deeper understanding of the ways of the other family.

"Lord Gu should understand now, right? The Fang Clan is not Lord Gu's enemy. At the critical juncture of the Seven Realms' rebellion, we are the firmest allies. "

Fang Shijie's expression turned solemn. "No matter what, the tragic deaths of the descendants of the Emperor of the Seven Realms are related to the Fang Clan. Now that they are rebelling, it is actually very dangerous for the Fang Clan to be so close to them.

"Therefore, Lord Gu, please discard any unnecessary suspicions. The Fang Clan will do our best to help you suppress this rebellion."

Fang Shijie spoke very sincerely. There were no loopholes in his words. Gu Chen could only nod.

"I understand. This is my duty. Fang Clan, you don't have to be so courteous."

As the two of them spoke, they arrived at the main hall of the banquet. The Fang Clan's Patriarch, Fang Shiyang, was already seated.

He was a middle-aged man who looked tall and dignified. He wore a wooden crown on his head and his black hair was neatly combed.

He had a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything in the world. There was a scar at the corner of his left eye, making him look even more experienced and wise.

Seeing Gu Chen arrive, Fang Shiyang immediately stood up. All the members of the Fang Clan in the hall stood up as well.

"I've long heard that General Gu is very young. Seeing you today, you are indeed a young hero!"

Fang Shiyang did not put on airs. He praised Gu Chen as soon as he saw him. He had the intention to get closer to him.

"Fang Clan's Patriarch is too courteous. I'll have to trouble you for a few days."

Gu Chen responded politely and walked to the table.

The moment he got close to Fang Shiyang, he suddenly felt his chest heat up. The situation when he had just gotten off the battleship during the day had happened again!

Gu Chen's heart trembled, but he did not show it on his face. He entered the banquet and chatted cheerfully with Fang Shiyang.

This banquet lasted until late at night. The host and guests were all enjoying themselves. Gu Chen returned to his courtyard, feeling a little tipsy.

The moment he returned to his room, the smile on Gu Chen's face disappeared. The drunkenness on his face also disappeared without a trace.

His expression became solemn. He took out the Destiny Dao Copper Coin from his bosom.

When he had first arrived at Fang Wai Planet and met Fang Shijie, the Destiny Dao Copper Coin had given him a warning.

At night, when he saw Fang Shiyang, it moved again.

According to what the Puji Enlightened had said, the Destiny Dao Copper Coin had the ability to seek fortune and avoid calamity. It had given two warnings, which meant that the two people might do something bad to Gu Chen!

This made Gu Chen very concerned. This thing had already demonstrated its superpower, so he would rather believe it than not believe it did not exist.

"Let me do some calculations."

A light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes. He used the Divination Dao to calculate the fortune and calamity of this trip.

When the result came out, his eyebrows jumped!

On the way here, he had calculated the fortune and calamity of suppressing the rebellion of the seven worlds. The result was an undetermined divination, which meant that everything depended on human effort.

But now that he calculated again, the result was great calamity!

"What's going on?"

Gu Chen realized the potential danger. The Wings of Time appeared behind him. He traced the past and the future, trying to understand the cause and effect of this.

However, his future seemed to be shrouded in fog. He could not trace the potential possibilities no matter how hard he tried!

Gu Chen's expression became uncertain. The future seemed to be filled with danger at every step. If he made the slightest mistake, he would fall into a bottomless abyss!

He hesitated for a moment, then threw the Destiny Dao Copper Coin into the air.

Ding!

The Destiny Dao Copper Coin spun several times in the air before landing on the ground. The side that was facing up had a word engraved on it — Calamity!

The Copper Coin of Destiny's Way also gave him a bad omen. Gu Chen felt that the entire Fang Clan was shrouded in a strong murderous spirit. The amiable faces during the day seemed to have suddenly become ferocious and ugly!

Gu Chen took a few deep breaths. Although the divination was ominous, man could conquer nature. He had never been superstitious about predetermined fate.

"Interesting. This Destiny Dao Copper Coin is usually very quiet. But as soon as I arrived on this planet, it started acting strangely. It seems I've found the right place."

"I want to see if your Fang family is a tiger's den or a dragon's pool!"
