Chapter 1309

Gu Chen bade farewell to Medusa before returning to Xing County.

He was about to return to Xing County, and Lin County's surveillance and observation of him should be over.

"Frined Gu, I don't know when we can meet again after today, and we might never see each other again. I will miss you."

Medusa's eyes twinkled as she spoke with a hint of ambiguity.

Gu Chen had gotten used to the tone of this beautiful serpent lady over the past month, so he just replied in a flat tone. "Take care, Your Majesty."

Medusa smiled nonchalantly. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Gu Chen's handsome features.

She had been trying to figure out his cultivation secrets over the past month, but unfortunately, she had gained little information.

Although there was not much information about his strength, she had learned a lot about his temperament and the way he conducted himself. It was not as if she had gained nothing.

The little time they spent together made her value the person in front of her more and more, and she saw his potential value.

"Frined Gu, you have to be careful when you go back. I heard that Xing County sent Exterminator to the frontline to deal with the challenge from Lin County. Although your plan with the Fang Family is perfect, you are still playing with fire. "

Medusa suddenly restrained her frivolous tone and reminded him seriously.

Gu Chen was a little surprised, but he nodded. "The Fang Family has told me about the situation. I have my own plans."

"Also."

Medusa paused for a moment and said meaningfully. "Fellow Daoist Gu, if you want to be a person above others, you will always need allies. You can consider me."

Gu Chen was even more surprised. His eyes sparkled as he said, "Are you talking about Empress Medusa of Lin County?"

"No, just myself." Medusa's lips curled up slightly.

Gu Chen was deep in thought as he re-examined Empress Medusa. "It seems that I have passed Lin County's test for me?"

"I will pass it for Frined Gu, but courtesy demands reciprocity. Don't forget about me in the future, Frined Gu," Medusa replied.

"Of course. I hope we can work well together."

Gu Chen smiled and thought to himself, It seems that there is another restless factor in this chaotic situation.

"Then I will take my leave. You deal with these people yourself."

Medusa tossed the statues of Wu Li and the two generals out of her body, then turned around and flew towards the distant starry sky.

As she left, Wu Li and the two generals' petrified state also slowly disappeared, and they began to regain consciousness in a daze.

"Lord Gu, what happened?" Wu Li asked in a daze. The other two were also at a loss.

"You're finally awake. Here's what happened."

Gu Chen turned around and looked at the three of them. His eyes turned purplish-green, and powerful soulforce surged out of his body, enveloping the three of them …

One day later, at the border of the sixteenth world.

After the army of Lin County took over the Seven Realms, most of its military forces were stationed in the Third Realm due to various considerations.

In order to deal with this, the Xing County sent out a large number of new troops and stationed them in the Sixteenth County that bordered the Third County. In comparison, the number of troops stationed in the Outer World was much smaller.

Because of this, the Xing County armed the Sixteenth County to the teeth. Flags fluttered everywhere they went, especially at the military camps.

At this moment, four people were crossing the starry sky outside the border, heading towards the Xing County's military camp!

The patrolling Xing County soldiers noticed this situation almost immediately. Seeing that they were coming in without any scruples, they immediately went up to stop them and interrogate them.

"Impudent! Tian Fa's Great General Gu Chen has returned. Who dares to stop him? Hurry up and report this to your superiors! "

Wu Li immediately berated the soldiers and took out the token that represented her identity.

"Lord Gu has returned?"

The soldiers couldn't help but look at Gu Chen, who was standing in the middle, with a stern expression.

During this period of time, the war between Xing County and Lin County had begun, and there was a lot of news about Lord Gu.

It was rumored that he was betrayed by the deputy commander, and his disappearance after the entire army was wiped out was a mystery. To think that he would return at this time!

"Please wait a moment!"

The soldiers realized the importance of this matter. One of them hurriedly went to report, while the others stayed behind to receive him.

Very quickly, the news of Gu Chen's return spread like wildfire. Many generals personally came to receive him!

"It's really Lord Gu! Lord Gu, you're finally back!"

The leader of the generals was rather shocked when he saw Gu Chen, but he hid his expression well and respectfully invited him into the depths of the military camp.

Gu Chen followed him all the way through the military camp. Many soldiers heard the news and came over, whispering to each other as they looked at him.

"Lord Gu is actually still alive? The rumors said that he was already dead."

"So what if he's alive? His entire army was wiped out on his first expedition as a Tian Fa's Great General. Even if there's a reason for this, he will definitely be punished by the military."

Countless soldiers were discussing this matter. Gu Chen also spread out his divine sense to listen in. When he found that the information the soldiers received was not too different from what he wanted, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The Fang Family had done a good job in controlling the public's opinion. Although there were some people who were dissatisfied with his failure, it was far from becoming a wave of people who wanted to kill him.

"Gu Chen, I didn't expect that a stray dog like you would still have the face to return!"

As soon as he walked into the camp of the Commander-in-Chief, a cold snort sounded beside Gu Chen's ears.

A strong man with a huge broadsword on his back strode toward him. He was aggressive and unfriendly.

Gu Chen squinted his eyes. So the Demon Mountain, the Great General of Tian Fa, had also come to the frontline!

When Gu Chen first accepted the appointment of Dao Lord Xing, he had a quarrel with the Demon Mountain. At this moment, the Demon Mountain was speaking so rudely. It was obvious that it was because of his failure.

Xing County respected martial arts, and this was especially so in the military.

Since he had been defeated, to the Demon Mountain who believed in the law of the jungle, he was naturally a stray dog that could be bullied at will.

"Fellow Demon Mountain, your words are a little harsh."

Gu Chen stopped in his tracks and replied calmly.

At this moment, he had returned as a loser. It was inevitable that he would be put in a difficult position. He had to pretend that he was not confident.

"Is it harsh? As the Great General of Tian Fa, you led an army into battle for the first time. In the end, the entire army was annihilated, and you only brought back a few nobodies. Am I wrong? "

The Demon Mountain sneered. His words made Wu Li and the others angry and embarrassed.

"Do you know the consequences of losing this battle? Because of you, Xing County lost seven realms, and I had to come here to clean up your mess. You, on the other hand, only came back after hiding for more than a month! "

The Demon Mountain really gave off the feeling of a demonic mountain. As he spoke, a terrifying pressure came toward them.

His words aroused the sympathy of many of the generals present. Many of them looked at Gu Chen with disdain.

"I was indeed careless this time. I will naturally apologize to His Majesty and apply to redeem myself. There's no need for you to gossip here."

Gu Chen pretended to have an ugly expression.

"Redeem yourself?"

When the Demon Mountain heard this, he exchanged glances with his subordinates and burst into laughter.

"Gu Chen, you want to redeem yourself with your achievements? Aren't you too naive? You'd better think about how to get yourself out of this in front of the military! "

"Men, take him down!"
