Chapter 1709

Everyone shared the information they had gathered. Most of them were optimistic about the current situation in the Dao World.

As Gu Chen listened to everyone's opinions, he was deep in thought most of the time. Occasionally, a puzzled look flashed in his eyes.

In Gu Chen's opinion, the Nine Major Dao Courts controlled the Primordial Chaos Dao Law. This was equivalent to obtaining the recognition of the Chaos Sea and mastering the Celestial Thearch Seal.

Under such circumstances, the Nine Major Dao Courts possessed absolute strength. Why would they allow the entire Primordial Chaos Dao World to be divided?

In Gu Chen's opinion, a unified Dao World was definitely beneficial to the development of civilization. The Nine Major Dao Courts' actions were illogical unless there was a deeper reason behind it …

Gu Chen could not figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. He laughed involuntarily and simply threw it to the back of his mind.

He had just entered the Dao World and did not understand the various factions. What was the point of thinking about this?

As he gradually understood this world, the truth would come to light sooner or later.

As the crowd continued to communicate with each other, Gu Chen noticed that Fang Shijie, who was in the crowd, remained silent and occasionally showed hesitation on his face.

"Shijie, what's the situation?" Gu Chen asked curiously.

Fang Shijie seemed to be pulled back to his senses by Gu Chen's words. After a stern expression, he bowed solemnly.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. There's something I haven't told you."

The moment he said that, everyone stopped talking and looked at him in surprise.

"What is it?" Gu Chen was also rather surprised.

"A hundred years ago, my father got me to participate in the Chaos Myriad Spirit List battle. In fact, he was secretly making arrangements for my future after I entered the world."

Fang Shijie's words greatly aroused everyone's interest. Feng Yaya said casually, "Although the Fang Family has some ties to the Primordial Chaos Dao World, that was a long time ago. Does your father still have such capabilities?"

Fang Shijie revealed a bitter smile. "Countless years ago, when the Fang Family was banished to the lower realm, the ancestors of the Fang Family were indignant and focused on reviving the family. Before they went to the lower realm, they secretly made some arrangements in order to leave hope for their descendants. "

"Oh?"

Gu Chen narrowed his eyes, completely attracted by these words.

"My father told me all these things. Before heading to the Realm Sea's ferry 655 years ago, my father gave me a token and asked me to find an opportunity to go to the Pei Chao Luo Sect to seek refuge after entering the Dao World."

As Fang Shijie spoke, he solemnly took out an item from his bosom and handed it to Gu Chen with both hands.

It was an antique bronze mirror. Gu Chen took a quick look at it but didn't take it.

Upon seeing that he did not take it, Fang Shijie explained awkwardly, "This matter should have been explained to His Majesty the Celestial Emperor before entering the Dao World. However, a long time has passed, and the backup plan left behind by the ancestor might not still exist, so …"

Before he could finish, Gu Chen shook his head. "You misunderstand, I don't care about that."

It was clear that Fang Shijie had kept this matter a secret. Before crossing the sea, he had handed over the Fang Clan's inherited supreme technique, but he had not mentioned anything about the keepsake.

Gu Chen knew what he was thinking, but he also understood that this was human nature.

Although he had raised Fang Shijie for the past 655 years, it was not out of kindness but out of consideration for Fang Yuan's existence.

Fang Shijie was also aware of this, so he was naturally worried that he would be killed after losing his value.

Handing over the Fang Clan's inheritance was a risky move. Gu Chen originally only wanted to take a look at the Fang Clan's secret technique's mystery and find a way to deal with Fang Yuan.

Fang Shijie was very smart. He was afraid that after handing over the inheritance, he would lose his value and Gu Chen would go back on his word and not bring him on board. Thus, he concealed the keepsake.

This way, if he went back on his word after obtaining the Fang Clan's secret technique, he could still use the keepsake as a bargaining chip.

If he was lucky enough to board the ship and reach the Realm Sea, he would have two choices as to how to deal with the keepsake.

One was to hide this matter and find a chance to leave Gu Chen after reaching the Dao World and search for the opportunity left behind by the ancestor.

The second was to reveal everything like what was happening now. Fang Shijie had obviously chosen the latter.

Since he had chosen the latter, Gu Chen would not be calculative about his thoughts.

"The keepsake was left behind by your father, and the opportunity also belongs to your Fang Clan. Why are you giving this keepsake to me?"

Upon seeing Fang Shijie's nervous expression, Gu Chen explained with a smile.

Fang Shijie was moved. After entering the Dao World, he had been conflicted about whether he should tell Gu Chen about this. On one hand, he was worried that Gu Chen would be on guard against him and turn hostile. On the other hand, he indeed had his own thoughts.

He shouldered his father's dying wish and the Fang Clan's hope. If he had a chance to make the Fang Clan flourish in his hands, how could he be willing to hand over the opportunity?

He was worried that Gu Chen would snatch his opportunity. However, after thinking about it again and again, he decided to tell Gu Chen about this matter.

Firstly, it would be very difficult for him to survive alone in the Dao World. It was hard to say whether he would be alive to find the opportunity.

Secondly, he had personally witnessed Gu Chen suppressing the Dark Chaos by himself. He had an inexplicable confidence in him and believed that he would definitely help him take revenge on Fang Yuan.

After thinking about it for many days, he finally decided to reveal everything today. In fact, he was already prepared to be scolded by Gu Chen and even lose the Fang Clan's opportunity.

However, he had not expected that Gu Chen would not care about this matter and would even let him keep the keepsake.

Upon seeing his frankness, Fang Shijie's entire face turned red. He was so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole to hide in.

He had gauged the heart of a gentleman with his own mean measure and underestimated Gu Chen. He had also belittled himself!

"Your Majesty, you are magnanimous. You have made me feel ashamed."

Fang Shijie retracted his hand and clutched the ancient mirror tightly, his emotions complicated.

"Since we're already in the Dao World, don't call me Your Majesty anymore. Just call me whatever they call me."

"Also, since you're following me, we're all brothers. You don't have to be so restrained or think too much."

Gu Chen said faintly.

"Understood, Chief!"

Fang Shijie nodded his head heavily. The burden in his heart for many days was finally gone.

Everyone quickly started talking about the Fang Clan's keepsake.

"Pei Dynasty, Luo Sect … Is this Pei Dynasty related to the Pei Nation?" Nameless guessed.

Pei Dynasty, Pei State, it sounded too much like the same thing.

"I suspect this too. If that's the case, then the Luo Sect shouldn't be too far away, "Fang Shijie said excitedly.

He was full of anticipation for the ancestor's arrangements and could not wait to go to the Luo Sect immediately.

"The Luo Sect should be a sect. It's been so long, so the arrangements left by the Fang Clan's ancestor might not be fulfilled."

"We can't be too hasty about this matter. According to our original discussion, we'll stay in this city first and familiarize ourselves with the Dao World's situation."

Gu Chen said this after careful consideration. Everyone agreed with this cautious approach. Even though Fang Shijie was looking forward to it, he knew that he could not be anxious.

Thus, everyone stayed in the city as outsiders and integrated into the lives of the common people in the city to solve the problem of not being able to adapt to the climate.
