Chapter 1343

After Gu Chen left the forest and returned to his residence, he told Chu Meixin that he had something to attend to and had to leave for a while.

"Where are you going?"

Chu Meixin and Granny Shu were surprised. They had spent a lot of effort to arrive at the Galaxy Forest. Why did Gu Chen sound like he was leaving the island?

"To find out more about the situation."

Gu Chen chuckled in response. He did not elaborate and quickly left with Wu Li.

Before the appointed time, Gu Chen arrived at the eastern shore of the Galaxy Forest. There was already a spaceship waiting there.

Peng Fu did not personally send Gu Chen off. It was the shadow guards of the Shadow Department who were responsible for sending him off.

"Lord Gu, please."

For some reason, the shadow guards looked a little uneasy. Gu Chen did not expose them and boarded the spaceship.

Just like that, the spaceship stealthily left the Galaxy Forest and headed toward the Chaos Transit Window of the Longevity Realm at an extremely fast speed.

Along the way, Gu Chen sat in the cabin without saying a word. Occasionally, he would glance at the galaxy outside as if he was waiting for something.

Wu Li already knew that the spaceship was returning to Xing County, but she did not ask Gu Chen anything. She only sat at the side and cultivated quietly.

Gu Chen was very satisfied with her reaction. A qualified subordinate did not need to know everything. They only needed to move forward without hesitation when he needed them.

The spaceship slowly left the Galaxy Forest. At this time, Gu Chen looked outside the window and murmured. "They should be here soon."

The reason why he agreed to leave the Longevity Realm was not because Peng Fu threatened to send him back to Hell Star, but because he had his own plans.

As a Sky Shadow of Xing County, Peng Fu was too impatient with his performance on the island.

Perhaps it was because he did not know him well enough and thought that he was just a defeated dog in the seven realms. However, on a deeper level, it was because he was worried.

What was he worried about?

Did the Shadow Department and Xing County know that he was in the Galaxy Forest?

Gu Chen wanted to know what role the Shadow Department played in this Black Warrior Banquet, to verify Peng Fu's intentions. Hence, he purposely satisfied him.

When they were talking earlier, he had already sensed the murderous aura and knew that the road to leaving the Longevity Realm would not be smooth.

Now that they were far away from the Star Sea Forest, there was an extremely desolate Star Road nearby. Gu Chen reckoned that if the other party had any tricks up their sleeves, they would have already made their move.

He bided his time, and a moment later, something happened.

Whoosh!

The spaceship suddenly exploded. The terrifying flames engulfed the entire spaceship in an instant. Fortunately, Gu Chen reacted quickly and teleported away with Wu Li.

Swoosh.

The two of them appeared outside the ship and watched as the ship was engulfed in flames and turned into ashes!

Apart from them, only one of the few Shadow Guards who were responsible for escorting them managed to escape. Half of his body was burnt and his face was filled with terror.

"Lord Peng, please spare my life. Lord Peng, please spare my life." He muttered to himself as if he had already expected this to happen.

Gu Chen looked at him thoughtfully. At this moment, there was a cacophony of beast roars in the surrounding space.

A large group of ferocious-looking cultivators rushed out from behind a few giant floating asteroids!

Their bodies were tattooed with strange beasts, and they were riding huge black flying lizards on their backs.

"Lunar Beast Army? Why are they here? "

Wu Li recognized the identity of these cultivators. They were a bandit army that they had a conflict with in the Three Thousand Lesser Worlds.

However, the number of bandits blocking their way this time was much greater than before. The Lunar Beast Army seemed to have turned out in full force!

Gu Chen was slightly surprised as well. His eyes instantly turned deep purple.

"Five Dao Querying cultivators. Other than one who is at the second tier of the Dao Querying Realm, the others are at least at the fourth tier of the Dao Querying Realm. They don't look like ordinary bandits."

Gu Chen squinted his eyes. He had killed the third leader of the Lunar Beast Army previously. Based on that person's strength, the Lunar Beast Army was definitely not as strong as they appeared.

He quickly noticed that other than the sixth tier Dao Querying cultivator who concealed his aura and hid among the ordinary bandits, there were two other Dao Querying cultivators who did not fit in with the Lunar Beast Army.

Of the two, one was a middle-aged woman with a cultivation level of the fourth tier of the Dao Querying Realm. The other was a young man with soft skin. His eyes were somewhat lustful and he was also at the fourth tier of the Dao Querying Realm.

"Stinking brat, ugly freak, how dare you kill my third brother. Today, I will tear you into pieces!"

As Gu Chen was sizing them up, a huge man spoke coldly.

His upper body was bare, and his dark green muscles looked exaggerated. The dragon lizard he was riding had two horns on its head. It was obvious that he was one tier higher than the other bandits.

This person's cultivation was at the fifth tier of the Dao Querying Realm. Based on his tone, Gu Chen was sure that he was the leader of the Lunar Beast Army.

Beside him was a second tier Dao Querying cultivator. He should also be the leader of the Lunar Beast Army.

The situation was clear. The threat was mainly from the five Dao Querying Realm cultivators. The biggest threat was the sixth tier Dao Querying cultivator who was hiding in the dark and preparing to launch a sneak attack.

"I thought that Peng Fu would do it himself. I didn't expect him to send you guys."

Gu Chen's heart was like a mirror. He looked at the densely packed bandits and sneered.

"What are you saying? I don't understand. "

The leader of the Lunar Beast Army pretended to be confused, but the smile on his face was extremely vicious.

Wu Li had already transformed into her true form. She stared at the enemy warily.

The enemy this time was much stronger than before. She was not worried about her master's safety. She was just afraid that she would be a burden.

The only surviving shadow guard was already injured. Seeing that the surroundings had been sealed, he could not escape. He could only brace himself and stand behind Gu Chen.

The shadow guard was in charge of intelligence. He knew a thing or two about this Master Gu.

He led an army into battle and suffered a crushing defeat, causing the seven realms to fall into the hands of Lin County. In the eyes of many of the upper echelons of the military, he was just a stray dog that they talked about after a meal.

However, no matter how bad his reputation was, it was still his only hope. He could only hope for a miracle and that Master Gu would be able to break through this death trap.

"This Lunar Beast Army has a grudge against me. But who are the two of you?"

Gu Chen stood with his hands behind his back. He was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he asked the middle-aged woman and the young man.

He could guess why the Lunar Beast Army was lying in ambush here. They must have made some sort of deal with Peng Fu. However, who were these two people? Why were they involved in this mess?

Gu Chen purposely kept an eye out and did not point out the real expert hiding in the dark.

"You're about to die. Why are you asking so many questions?" The soft-skinned young man held a folding fan and shook his head sympathetically.

"Attack! Don't talk nonsense with him! "

The leader of the Lunar Beast Army was even more straightforward. He waved his hand, and a large number of armored cavalry swept towards Gu Chen's group!
