Chapter 1599
What entered his sight was a man wearing strange blood-red trousers. His upper body was bare, and he had horns on his head that looked like a bull.
Because he was half-naked, his granite-like muscles could be seen clearly. Most of his body was covered in prismatic scales that looked like tattoos!
Gu Chen looked at him and he happened to look at Gu Chen as well. From his eyes, Gu Chen seemed to see mountains of corpses and seas of blood that were about to overflow!
Although this was the first time they had met, Gu Chen could guess his identity immediately.
Crazy Dao Lord!
He was completely different from the other Dao Lords present. He had a proud and tyrannical aura that was extremely rare in the world.
Gu Chen had guessed who the visitor was, so how could Crazy Taoist Lord not guess his identity?
As the only unfamiliar face in the entire place, any Dao Lord that arrived would take a look at Gu Chen first.
"Hmph."
Mad Taoist Lord snorted and found a place to sit down. He didn't immediately pick a fight with Gu Chen.
Dao Lord Golden Crow and Dao Lord Yu heaved a sigh of relief when they saw him take his seat.
The biggest reason why they were on good terms with Gu Chen was because they had offended Crazy Dao Lord.
He was an unreasonable person and it was best to stay as far away from him as possible.
Before long, the remaining Dao Lords arrived one after another. Of the 42 seats present, there were only three left.
Gu Chen noticed that apart from the main seat that should have been occupied by the Humble Sword Lord, the remaining two seats were on the left and right sides of the hall that were closest to the Humble Sword Lord.
According to the customs of many worlds, these two seats were reserved for the most distinguished guests. As for the other seats, they were not so particular about them.
"Which other two Dao Lords aren't here?"
Gu Chen pondered and asked Dao Lord Golden Crow who was beside him casually.
"The only ones left are Daolord Qin and Daolord Su," Daolord Golden Crow replied softly.
Gu Chen knew about Dao Lord Qin but didn't know much about Dao Lord Su. He was about to ask more when the last two guests arrived.
Dao Lord Qin and Dao Lord Su entered the hall together with the Humble Sword Lord. The three of them were chatting happily, but the temperament of the two people on the left and right gave off a huge contrast.
Dao Lord Qin's face was angular and gave off a dignified and meticulous feeling. On the other hand, Dao Lord Su had a fair and devilish appearance and looked carefree and unrestrained.
The two of them walked to their seats and sat down while talking and laughing with Zhuo Sword Lord. From the beginning to the end, they didn't look at Gu Chen, who was a stranger, first after coming in like other Tao Lords.
When everyone was seated, the Humble Sword Lord stroked his beard and spoke with a smile.
"Fellow Daoists, thank you for coming to this old man's birthday banquet. Today, let us first enjoy the fine wine and delicacies, then we'll talk business."
The Humble Sword Monarch clapped his hands, and then numerous beautiful attendants surged into Sword God Palace and served up jade plates of delicacies.
Inside and outside the hall, the tables were opened at the same time and the atmosphere was joyous.
The sound of stringed instruments sounded in the hall and the graceful dancers danced with their swords. The various Dao Lords also toasted and chatted.
Gu Chen sat alone in the corner and drank by himself. He did not have the intention to talk to anyone and no one came to talk to him either.
Dao Lord Golden Crow and Dao Lord Yu wanted to talk to the other Dao Lords but because of Gu Chen, the other Dao Lords were very cold to them.
The two of them also drank to drown their sorrows.
The corner where the three of them sat was very cold and incompatible with the atmosphere in the hall.
"Brat, today, the Old Man will teach you a lesson and let you know how it feels to be isolated."
The Humble Sword Lord glanced at Gu Chen unintentionally while chatting with others and thought to himself.
He did not target him but it did not mean that he had to give him face.
The structure of the Hundred Commanderies had been established for a long time. Without his support, it would not be easy for a junior to integrate into the circle of Dao Lords.
He wanted to give Gu Chen a warning. It would be best if he could make him change his mind.
After three rounds of drinking, Crazy Dao Lord suddenly stood up and walked towards Gu Chen with his wine cup in hand.
For a moment, the Dao Lords present quieted down and looked like they were watching a good show.
Everyone had seen how Mad Dao Lord had schemed to kill Overlord.
Now that Overlord had entered the hall and was on equal footing with them, how could Crazy Dao Lord tolerate it given his personality?
In fact, it was already beyond everyone's expectations that he would only make trouble now.
Mad Daolord strode towards Gu Chen. Gu Chen, on the other hand, was drinking alone and had no intention of looking up.
Seeing him so calm, Crazy Dao Lord's eyes flashed coldly.
He had just chatted with other Dao Lords and learned that the Humble Sword Lord's attitude towards this guy had changed.
Originally, he had heard that the Humble Sword Lord wanted to make friends with this guy. Considering the possible resistance at his birthday banquet, he had planned to make trouble for Gu Chen after the banquet.
However, now that the Humble Sword Lord had taken the initiative to draw a clear line with Gu Chen and seemed to have a grudge against him, it could not be better for him. It meant that the Humble Sword Lord would no longer be a hindrance to him.
Since the host of the birthday banquet did not stop him, the other Dao Lords would probably not offend him either. This was a good opportunity to test him!
What Crazy Dao Lord wanted to know most was whether Li Wuwei was still alive. If he could confirm that Li Wuwei was dead today, he would create an opportunity to kill this hateful guy in front of him!
As long as he thought that the Origin of Nature existed in this guy's body, he felt extremely disgusted and his killing intent surged!
"Fellow Daoist Golden Crow, Fellow Daoist Yu, we haven't had a good chat for a long time."
When Crazy Dao Lord approached Gu Chen, he did not speak to Gu Chen. Instead, he looked at the two Dao Lords and grinned coldly.
Both Dao Lord Golden Crow and Dao Lord Yu's hearts skipped a beat. Crazy Dao Lord was coming for them!
"Come on, let me propose a toast to you!"
Crazy Dao Lord sounded a little drunk as if he had drunk too much. He raised the wine glass in his hand shakily.
The two Dao Lords were on guard, but they had no choice but to stand up and propose a toast together.
The three of them stood beside Gu Chen. Crazy Dao Lord stretched out his hand holding the wine glass and hung it over Gu Chen's head.
It was normal to propose a toast at a banquet, so none of the Dao Lords noticed what Crazy Dao Lord was going to do.
At this moment, the wine glass in Crazy Dao Lord's hand suddenly turned over. The wine in the glass splashed all over Gu Chen's head!
Gu Chen's black hair was instantly wet, and the wine slid down his forehead all the way to his chin!
The hall was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.
All the Dao Lords had guessed that Crazy Dao Lord was going to make things difficult for Gu Chen, but they did not expect that he would do it in such a direct and humiliating way!
He was as arrogant as ever, doing things without considering the consequences!
Everyone was also puzzled. No one knew if the Overlord had not expected it or if he had not reacted in time, but he had allowed Crazy Dao Lord to humiliate him!
"Oh, I'm really sorry. I drank too much and my hand shook just now."
"Frined Gu, please forgive me."
