Chapter 1496
No wonder this group of people was so powerful but didn't seem to be from the same lineage. It turned out that they were from Chi County.
How could he not remember this force? When the Secret Land of Chaos in the Longevity Realm appeared, he had dealt with them many times.
The powerful Old Black Tortoise came from Chi County. Chi County wanted to take over the Secret Land of Chaos, but their plan failed in the end because of him.
He didn't expect to meet people from Chi County again in Tian Chanzi's place and ruin their plan again. Gu Chen felt that fate was really unpredictable.
"I see. This Chi County is so powerful."
After listening to Tian Chanzi's introduction, the hunchbacked old man seemed to take it seriously, but he didn't think so.
They even dared to destroy the Xing Realm. Why would they be afraid of a force that was inferior to Xing County?
Tian Chanzi didn't know their background, otherwise he wouldn't have warned them like this.
Although the hunchbacked old man echoed him, he clearly didn't look worried. Tian Chanzi looked at Gu Chen again and saw that he was smiling. He felt even more helpless.
"You two, this Chi County doesn't just have a large group of powerful members. Their leader, Chi Mo, is even more extraordinary!" Tian Chanzi emphasized in order to attract the attention of the two.
"I heard that Chi Mo hasn't been born yet. What's there to be afraid of?"
This time, Gu Chen spoke with a chuckle.
"Daoist Chen knows about Chi County?"
Tian Chanzi was shocked to hear this, and even the hunchbacked old man cast a surprised look at Gu Chen.
"I've been in contact with them before," Gu Chen answered in a secretive manner.
"It turns out that Daoist Chen has been in contact with Chi County before. Then you should know that this force is not to be offended."
Tian Chanzi smiled bitterly. "Although Chi Mo hasn't been born yet, the Old Man has seen his miracles with his own eyes. It's no exaggeration to say that once this person is born, he will definitely change the structure of the Chaos Sea! "
Tian Chanzi's words aroused the interest of the hunchbacked old man, and Gu Chen also seemed to be thinking about something.
Chi County was a very strange force. Most of its members were Itinerant Cultivators with good strength.
The structure of the whole organization was actually very messy. The foundation that it relied on was the rumor that Chi Mo was about to be born.
With just this, he was able to win over such a large number of cultivators with extraordinary strength. Even if this Chi Mo was pretending to be mysterious, he should really have some ability.
While thinking, Gu Chen looked at Tian Chanzi and teased. "I heard that you even refused Thunder Dao Lord's invitation. Why are you afraid of a mere Chi County? I'm afraid there's something fishy about this, right? "
Tian Chanzi wholeheartedly explained the power of Chi Commandery to them. Gu Chen did not think that he was simply afraid of them. Thinking of what Left Emissary Ruan had said, Tian Chanzi might have done something wrong.
"This …"
Tian Chanzi suddenly looked embarrassed. This wasn't something to be proud of, and he didn't want to mention it. But now, he had no choice but to do so.
"It's like this. In order to obtain a rare medicinal herb, the Old Man had once pretended to join Chi Commandery."
"Originally, I wanted to say that Chi Commandery's organization was loose, and there hadn't been a single operation for hundreds of years. So, there probably wouldn't be any trouble."
"Who would have thought that Chi Commandery had been in a series of movements recently, and that the Old Man had been recruited several times? The Old Man was afraid of trouble, so he was unwilling to go and found excuses to refuse."
"Unexpectedly, this move angered Chi Commandery. Left Emissary Ruan personally came to visit with his men, and because of a disagreement, they took the Old Man away."
Tian Chanzi explained everything in detail. He felt that he could no longer keep his face.
After listening to him, Gu Chen and the hunchbacked old man understood. No wonder Tian Chanzi hesitated and wanted to let Left Emissary Ruan and the others go.
It was clear that he was in the wrong. As a famous alchemist, it was really unkind of him to cheat for a medicinal herb.
However, he was not an evil person. If he was, he would have asked Gu Chen to kill Left Emissary Ruan and the others. In that way, no one would know his shameful little secret, and he could push the trouble to Gu Chen and the others.
At best, he was just an old man who was obsessed with alchemy and accidentally got involved in some trouble.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Wu Ming, you know the ins and outs of the matter. Can you let that group of people go?"
Tian Chanzi put down his psychological burden and pleaded with Gu Chen and the hunchbacked old man.
Gu Chen and the hunchbacked old man looked at each other.
"Leader, how much do you know about this group of people?" The hunchbacked old man asked through his divine sense.
"Not much, but I have a bold idea."
The corners of Gu Chen's mouth curled up slightly. In his opinion, the appearance of Chi Commandery was a perfect opportunity.
"Great Master Tian Chanzi, I understand your situation. It's not impossible for me to let them go."
Gu Chen did not continue chatting with the hunchbacked old man and changed the subject.
"Really?" Tian Chanzi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"But, Great Master, have you ever thought about what will happen to you if you let them go?"
"When we leave the Golden Toad World, they are likely to return. What will you do then?"
Gu Chen asked rhetorically.
"This …"
Tian Chanzi's face revealed an awkward expression. He had indeed not considered this problem, but because he was in the wrong, he did not have the face to attack the people of Chi Commandery.
"As long as Great Master says the word, I can kill them without anyone knowing. Won't Great Master get rid of this trouble?" A cold light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes.
"Absolutely not!" Tian Chanzi was shocked and instinctively objected.
Seeing his reaction, Gu Chen secretly nodded in his heart.
He already knew that this group of people belonged to Chi Commandery, so how could he easily kill them? What he said just now was just a test.
He wanted to recruit Tian Chanzi, but if Tian Chanzi's character was too bad, it might be a bad thing to recruit him.
He deliberately tested Tian Chanzi, but Tian Chanzi's immediate objection showed that he had his own principles.
Only people with principles could become companions.
"If Great Master is not willing to kill them, I have another way," Gu Chen continued.
"Oh? What is it? "
Tian Chanzi hurriedly asked modestly. He was indeed struggling to make a choice. He did not want to go with the people of Chi Commandery, nor did he want to do something against his conscience.
"Great Master Tian Chanzi, you can go with me. As long as you follow me, the people of Chi Commandery can't force you to do anything you don't want to do."
Gu Chen revealed his true intention with a smile on his face. Tian Chanzi looked at him and inexplicably felt as if he had been forced to board a pirate ship!
The hunchbacked old man was stunned. The chief's recruitment method was really sinister.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, your method is not very good," Tian Chanzi said in a dilemma.
He was a person who only liked alchemy and did not care about other trivial things.
Otherwise, he would not have been so resistant to Chi Commandery.
Although he did not know the specific background of the two people in front of him, he could see that their identities were not simple, just like the people of Chi Commandery.
If he followed them, he could not guarantee that he would also be followed by a lot of trouble. It was like driving away the wolf and then the tiger came.
