Chapter 1412

Daolord Xing was the supreme ruler of the Xing Commandery, and his horizons were unfathomable.

If Dao Lord Xing had changed his attitude towards the Ninth Realm because of Li Wuwei's interference, how could he not have known about Li Wuwei's movements after that?

Did Dao Lord Xing know about Li Wuwei's death in the Ancient Planet Cang Huang?

If he knew about everything, it would be impossible for Gu Chen, who had inherited Li Wuwei's dharma, to not have noticed anything!

However, just like Gu Chen's identity as a Tyrant, Dao Lord Xing did not mention these things. Did he not care, or did he pretend not to know?

A chill ran down Gu Chen's spine. His petty tricks, as well as the rapid increase in his strength, had probably been noticed by Dao Lord Xing.

No wonder Dao Lord Xing locked me in the Prison Star without saying a word when I returned from the Seven Realms. It seems like he must have noticed something, but he couldn't find any conclusive evidence. He also had other intentions towards me, so he chose to punish me.

Gu Chen had a much clearer understanding of the situation he was in. Many of his cautiousness was completely meaningless, because the information Dao Lord Xing possessed far surpassed that of a frog at the bottom of a well from a small world like him.

It seems like I'm at a complete disadvantage. If I want to turn the situation around, I have to figure out what he's thinking.

Gu Chen's expression was gloomy. Ever since Dao Lord Xing recruited him, he had never revealed his true intentions, and Gu Chen could not find out.

In a situation where Dao Lord Xing had more information than him in all aspects, he was like a clown in any battle, unless Gu Chen could figure out his intentions!

Gu Chen had a hunch that Dao Lord Xing's intentions towards him must be hidden in the secret history of Xing County's pursuit of the Tyrants.

Chu Meixin had not mentioned this secret history. It was obvious that Dao Lord Xing had deliberately concealed the Tyrants.

To Chu Meixin, being Dao Lord Li's successor was more important than being the successor of the Tyrants. It was obvious that the Tyrants were not well-known in the Chaos Sea!

Why did Dao Lord Xing, who was at the peak of his power, spend so much effort to kill a Tyrant that was not well-known?

Where did the Tyrants come from? What kind of past do they have?

Gu Chen's thoughts wandered even further. He thought of the spiritual coffin in the Tyrants' mystic land that had nowhere to put it, as well as the Tyrants' ancestor whose heart had disappeared without a trace.

"If Young Master Gu is worried that Dao Lord Xing will harm you, perhaps you can consider joining our Sword County."

Chu Meixin saw that Gu Chen's expression kept changing after listening to her. She pondered for a while and then plucked up her courage.

She did not know why Gu Chen was staying in Xing County. As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. She had heard about how dangerous Xing Daoist was from her grandfather.

She guessed that he must have his own reasons, but because she didn't pay much attention to the background of the new Tian Fa General, she couldn't accurately guess his thoughts.

Even so, she was indebted to Gu Chen, and her own talent was admirable. If she could help her grandfather recruit people from Sword County, even if it meant offending Xing County, it would be worth it.

When Granny Shu heard that Chu Meixin had taken the initiative to recruit Gu Chen, a look of surprise appeared on her face, but she did not say anything.

Being offered an olive branch by the Princess of Sword County, Gu Chen had to put an end to his previous thoughts.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Chu, but due to certain reasons, I have to stay in Xing County." Gu Chen declined politely. He knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for others.

Chu Meixin was slightly disappointed when she heard this, but she quickly let it go. "I understand. But what do you plan to do next, Young Master Gu? Are you going to report to Xing County just like that? "

Gu Chen pondered for a while, a strange light flashing in his eyes. "I have a presumptuous request."

"Please speak."

"The one who gained the most in the secret place is you, Miss Chu, am I right? The head spirit fought with the Insect King, the Crane Clam. In the end, the Insect King died and the head spirit was sealed. Miss Chu obtained the greatest fortune in the secret place. As for me, I only got a small portion of the soup. "

Gu Chen laughed dryly. Granny Shu immediately understood. She rolled her eyes and said. "Are you trying to make us take the blame and hide the fact that you have the Chaotic Golden Thunder Bamboo?"

Gu Chen smiled awkwardly. Not only the Chaotic Golden Thunder Bamboo, but also the First Herb and the First Stone …

"Sure, most of what you said is the truth. We will help you cover up this lie, and you can blame us as much as you want."

Chu Meixin agreed without much thought. Her words were very straightforward, and she clearly understood what Gu Chen meant.

"Thank you, Miss Chu." Gu Chen was very grateful.

"The fortune I obtained is genuine. It's not a loss to take the blame for you. Moreover, who would dare to touch me after I leave Thunder County?" Chu Meixin smiled, showing a rare domineering aura of a Dao Monarch's beloved daughter.

"No matter what, I will remember your kindness," Gu Chen said seriously.

"If you really remember, come to Sword County when you have the chance," Chu Meixin said after a moment of hesitation, and then her face became a little red.

"We will be leaving after saying what we need to say," she said hurriedly, as if she was afraid that Gu Chen would overthink her words.

"Yes, I wish Miss Chu and Granny Shu a safe journey."

Gu Chen nodded and did not think much of it.

The two chatted for a while more before Gu Chen left. When he stepped out of the courtyard, Chu Meixin could not help but ask.

"You still haven't told me how you are going to leave Longevity Realm if you don't come with us."

Gu Chen stopped in his tracks and turned around with a faint smile on his face. "I plan to … kill my way out!"

After he finished speaking, he strode away. The domineering words before he left lingered in Chu Meixin's mind for a long time.

"Meixin, you seem to treat Young Master Gu differently."

Granny Shu shook her head when she saw Chu Meixin's absent-minded look.

"How am I different?" Chu Meixin was like a young girl whose thoughts had been exposed, and she was inexplicably flustered.

"When you were talking to him just now, your smile did not stop at all. This is not like you who are usually indifferent."

"The most obvious thing is that you tried to recruit him three times in just a short while."

Chu Meixin panicked. "How is it three times? Granny, don't talk nonsense. "

"How is it not? The first time, you asked him to come with us. The second time, you asked him to join Sword County. The third time, after he rejected, you even hinted for him to go to Sword County to find you. "Granny Shu joked.

"Am, am I that obvious?" Chu Meixin was speechless and said weakly after a while.

Granny Shu looked at her as if she had just experienced love for the first time and sighed in her heart. This fresh cabbage had finally grown up.

However, the person she fell in love with was so special.

Granny Shu looked in the direction that Gu Chen left and sighed, not caring if Chu Meixin could understand.

"He is indeed a young talent, but he is also a fugitive whose head is tied to the waist of his trousers. He has never shown his true face in front of you, so you better not be tempted or you will get hurt easily. "
