Chapter 1466

"Lord, Lord Gu, spare me!" Marquis Huanyang said fearfully.

"Do you know why I spared your life? Tell me, where is Kong Sheng? "Gu Chen said coldly.

"I, I don't know, Lord Kong was just here..."

Marquis Huanyang stammered and told him about Kong Sheng's arrangements in the great hall, as well as why he had not seen him since.

"You mean, Kong Sheng is not in this research institute? What about Feng Yaya? She's not here either? "

Gu Chen understood and furrowed his brows tightly.

"Lady Feng returned to the realm of punishment some time ago. I heard that she went into seclusion not long after. But where and for how long, I do not know!" Marquis Huanyang answered honestly.

"If you don't know anything, then what use do I have you?"

Gu Chen's expression darkened and he strode into the institute.

Marquis Huanyang saw that Gu Chen did not kill him and had just breathed a sigh of relief when a loud buzzing sound came from behind him.

He turned and saw a swarm of silver-white butterflies flying towards him!

"Ah —"

The Demonic Sky-Devouring Butterflies were almost perfect after their evolution. Marquis Huanyang's dao technique attacks were almost useless against them. Very quickly, he was drowned in the swarm. After a shrill scream, he turned into a pile of white bones!

Gu Chen walked into the institute and used his divine sense to scan the great hall. Just as Marquis Huanyang had said, he did not find Kong Sheng or Feng Yaya.

Gu Chen did not give up. He followed the stairs to the individual rooms in the institute and broke through the restrictions outside, trying to find Feng Yaya.

Not here!

Not here!

Still not here!

Each room was filled with Kong Sheng's experimental products. They looked shocking, but there was no sign that Feng Yaya had been there.

Bang!

Gu Chen kicked open another door. Inside was a huge glass trough. In the trough was a human-headed, spider-bodied monster soaked in an unknown solution.

The monster's skin was rotten in many places, and its disfigured face looked especially frightening.

"Wu Li?"

Gu Chen recognized the monster and his expression changed. He quickly shattered the glass trough!

The liquid immediately dispersed, and Wu Li fell to the ground, coughing up blood.

"Are you okay?" Gu Chen rushed forward and asked with concern.

After being defeated by Kong Sheng in the Cerulean Sea Star, Gu Chen's mind was filled with thoughts of how to rescue Feng Yaya and how to ensure the safety of the Ninth Realm.

Since his mind was filled with so many things, he neglected to consider what kind of situation Wu Li, as his follower, would face after the fact that he had betrayed him was exposed.

Looking at Wu Li's current appearance, Kong Sheng had most likely subjected her to inhumane torture after he returned to the Punishment Realm!

Gu Chen felt a little guilty. This was the second time Wu Li had been implicated by him.

"Master Gu …"

Wu Li finally recovered with great difficulty. When she saw the appearance of the person in front of her, she forced out a smile. "You came to save me. That's great."

She quickly observed her surroundings again and asked weakly when she vaguely heard the loud noises outside. "Sir, what's going on outside?"

"I brought people to attack the Punishment Realm. Right now, it's a mess outside." Gu Chen briefly explained what had happened.

"Master Gu finally doesn't have to endure anymore?" Wu Li mumbled to herself after understanding the situation.

"Yes. Although I had no choice, there's no need for me to endure everything here anymore." Gu Chen nodded.

"That's great …"

Two streams of tears flowed down Wu Li's eyes unknowingly. She desperately tried to get up from the ground.

"Your injuries look serious. Don't force yourself." Gu Chen quickly reminded her.

"No … I've waited for so long, and this day has finally come. I want to fight. I want to fight side by side with Master Gu! "

Wu Li finally stood up stubbornly. The tears in her eyes gradually disappeared and evaporated.

She had worked hard for Xing County for her entire life, but in the end, all she got in return was Kong Sheng's insane torture again and again.

Failure was not allowed in Xing County. It was so cold that there was no warmth at all.

Because she had seen through everything, she made up her mind to follow Gu Chen, even though she had guessed Gu Chen's true feelings for Xing County.

She had always known that following Gu Chen would make them enemies with Xing County one day. She had thought it would take a long time, but she did not expect this day to come so soon!

With a heart full of hatred, with the hope of breaking the shackles of Xing County and embracing the beautiful vision of a new world, she did not want to miss this moment!

She wanted to fight!

She wanted to leave this ugly place in a dignified manner!

Wu Li was extremely determined. Seeing her clenching her teeth and holding on, Gu Chen suddenly realized that this battle was not just for him, Feng Yaya, and the Ninth Realm.

This battle was also to bring light to the people who had been oppressed by Xing County. For those who had been living in the abyss for a long time, what they did today was enough to reignite hope in everyone's hearts!

"I understand."

Gu Chen was moved. He took out a petal of the Tri-Color Bingdi Lotus from the space inside his body and gave it to her.

"General Wu Li!" Gu Chen changed the way he addressed her.

Wu Li was shocked and said solemnly. "Yes, General!"

"I order you to take this medicine and leave this place. Do your best to save the slaves in Xing County. I don't need you to participate in the battle. You must do your best to protect the innocent people, understand? "Gu Chen said solemnly.

Wu Li understood what Gu Chen meant. He did not want her to take too many risks, but he also wanted her to do what she wanted to do the most.

"I will obey your order!"

Wu Li's eyes were filled with tears. She swallowed the petal Gu Chen gave her and ran out of the research center with determination!

She wanted to save as many slaves as possible. As long as they could leave this place alive, they would bring hope to all the worlds under the oppression of Xing County!

After Wu Li left, Gu Chen was left alone in Kong Sheng's research center. He felt that every place was repulsive.

He personally opened up all the laboratories and released all the test subjects that still had spiritual intelligence. Then, he set the place on fire!

Thick smoke billowed. All the ugly research center in the Ministry of Works was engulfed in flames. The light from the fire made Gu Chen's face look red.

"Where is Kong Sheng? Crazy girl, where are you? "

Gu Chen mumbled to himself as he looked at the sea of fire.

The entire Xing County was in chaos. It would be extremely difficult to find Feng Yaya in such a chaotic situation.

Logically speaking, Kong Sheng should have shown himself a long time ago after such a major incident happened and the destruction of the Ministry of Works.

However, he had not shown himself for a long time. This made Gu Chen feel inexplicably uneasy.

Why hasn't Kong Sheng shown himself?

Could it be that there is something more important than protecting the Ministry of Works?

Just as Gu Chen was feeling anxious, he suddenly heard light footsteps from the side.

"Who is it?"
