Chapter 1731

"If it weren't for Brother Chen, I'm afraid the one kowtowing on the ground would be me. I was disrespectful to Brother Chen earlier, but Brother Chen repaid me with kindness. I feel very guilty. "

Tang Jianqing sighed as the conversation in the room gradually got louder.

These words were not just for show, but from the bottom of his heart.

Putting aside the impact of Fang Shijie alerting the Prophet, just the fact that Gu Chen was the first to walk out of the Eight Trigrams Diagram was enough to make him feel grateful.

If Gu Chen wasn't the first to walk out, Shao Heyang would definitely be first, and the one forced to kneel and suffer humiliation would be him.

The difference of one place was the difference between heaven and hell. He was truly glad.

"Young Master Tang, there's no need to be so polite. Since I've become the Tang Clan's sinecure, I naturally won't sit idly by. You and I should help each other, don't you think so? "

Gu Chen replied with a smile. These words made Tang Jianqing feel extremely comfortable, and the bit of worry he had vanished into thin air. "Of course, Brother Chen's words make sense!"

"Since Young Master Tang understands this, there are some things that I won't hide anymore."

Seeing that Tang Jianqing had taken the bait, Gu Chen continued, "Yuan Jie and I are rogue cultivators after all. Now that we've entered the Luo Sect, it'll be a little troublesome if they investigate our backgrounds."

"What kind of trouble?" Tang Jianqing was stunned.

"As rogue cultivators, we're not like sect disciples. In the past, we lacked resources for cultivation, so we've more or less done some shady things. Now that we've finally entered the Luo Sect, Yuan Jie has a bright future ahead of him. I really don't want these things to be used against us in the future. "

Gu Chen pretended to sigh helplessly.

"With Brother Yuan's talent, who would dare to gossip about you? I understand the situation of rogue cultivators, so Brother Chen doesn't have to worry too much. It's nothing. "

Tang Jianqing didn't think much of it. Rogue cultivators had always been in a difficult situation in this world, so it was inevitable that they would do some shady things. From what he heard, that was probably what Gu Chen was worried about.

However, this world was always realistic. When you became strong, who would care about your past?

"That's true, but it's better to avoid trouble if we can," Gu Chen reminded.

"Brother Chen, what do you mean?"

"I'm a Guardian of the Tang Family, so Yuan Jie is naturally a member of the Tang Family. My companions are naturally members of the Tang Family as well. What I said should be correct, right? Young Master Tang, do you understand what I mean? "

Gu Chen tapped his fingers on the table and said.

Tang Jianqing quickly understood, and his eyes lit up. "Brother Chen, I understand. Brother Chen, Brother Yuan, and the others are all members of my Tang Family! If anyone dares to question anything, my Tang Family will bear the consequences! "

Tang Jianqing was excited in his heart. He had originally come to make friends with Yuan Jie. He had already experienced the benefits of having a relationship with Yuan Jie today. Of course, he was eager to have a closer relationship with both sides.

Previously, Yuan Jie was only Chen Yi's partner, and Chen Yi was only using the title of Tang Family's consecrator. The relationship between the two of them was ambiguous.

Now, Chen Yi had taken the initiative to express his goodwill, and he had become a member of the Tang Family!

Tang Jianqing was not a scheming person. He only felt that this was a great thing, so he went along with Gu Chen's wishes without hesitation.

He stayed for a while longer, and his attitude was warm, as if he could not wait to chat with Gu Chen through the night.

It was only when Gu Chen hinted that he wanted to send him off that he tactfully left. Before he left, he was still in high spirits.

After watching him leave, Gu Chen closed the door and shook his head.

He might have already been targeted, and Fang Shijie was too dazzling. In this case, their background was very important.

If they were unaffiliated cultivators with unknown origins, the Luo Sect's suspicions would increase. However, if they were related to a family with a strong background like the Tang Family, they would have an additional layer of protection.

He had repeatedly hinted to Tang Jianqing tonight. With Tang Jianqing's temperament, the entire Luo Sect would undoubtedly know that they were members of the Tang Family in a few days.

Tang Jianqing wanted to use this relationship to establish a foothold in the Luo Sect, but he did not know that they also needed this relationship to deceive the Luo Sect.

If they were to be exposed one day, they could slip away, but the Tang Family would not be able to escape. There might even be a lot of trouble.

Therefore, the Tang Family could not say that it was a good deal for them, but Tang Jianqing had not realized it yet.

…

The sound of bottles being smashed could be heard. Shao Heyang stood in the messy room. His expression was extremely livid, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent!

"Elder Wei, help me kill that Chen Yi. I want him to die a horrible death!"

His voice was furious and hysterical, but the dwarf elder standing next to him was much calmer. He waited until he had vented most of his anger before replying, "Since you can even endure the humiliation of kneeling, how can you be so irrational?"

Shao Heyang understood what he meant, and a bitter expression appeared on his face.

This was the Luo Sect. Even if he succeeded, he would not be able to bear the consequences, let alone the success rate of killing someone.

He knew that Elder Wei would not help him kill someone in this place. He was only a high official of the Shao Family, but it did not mean that he was suicidal.

However, whenever he thought about the humiliation he had to endure during the day, he almost lost control of his emotions.

Utter humiliation!

That good-for-nothing Tang Jianqing actually knelt down to him under his coercion!

If word of this spread back to Peidu, he would definitely be utterly humiliated. However, if he did not fulfill his promise, judging from the attitude of those people in the afternoon, they might even break his legs.

The Shao Family might be considered a prestigious family in Peidu, but in this sect, worldly power was nothing.

Those who stood by Tang Jianqing's side in the afternoon were all prospective Luo Sect disciples. There were also some veteran disciples who watched coldly from the sidelines. The guards that he brought along dared not offend him, and the same went for Elder Wei.

Under those circumstances, he had no other choice but to accept his defeat!

He had endured the humiliation, but what tormented him was his mental state afterward. Every time he recalled that scene, he felt like thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart, and his hatred grew.

Compared to Tang Jianqing, whom he had always looked down on, he hated the high official named Chen Yi even more!

If it were not for him, he would not have been reduced to a joke today!

"What's done is done. No matter how angry you are, it's useless. Let's think about the future!"

The dwarf old man glanced around. Seeing that the doors and windows were closed and there was no unusual movement outside, he lowered his voice and said, "According to the Master's arrangement, the best situation would be for you to get first place in the assessment and successfully become Dong Xianzhi's disciple. Then, you'd be given the gifts. In this way, you'd have a very bright future in the Luo Sect. However, now that Yuan Jie has alarmed the nine Prophets, he will definitely become a huge threat to you, young master. "

Hearing this, Shao Heyang's face suddenly became a little gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, "Are you saying that the big shot surnamed Gu might take a fancy to Yuan Jie?"
