Chapter 1760

The journey to Peidu was long and arduous.

Gu Chen, who was alone, was not in a hurry. Instead, he moved forward leisurely as if he was on a scenic tour.

Life was a journey. Although he had lofty ambitions, he was not in a hurry. He might as well enjoy the scenery of the Dao World for half a day.

Unfortunately, this kind of leisurely life only lasted for two days before it was ruined by a person he bumped into.

"Brother Chen!"

Tang Jianqing, whose clothes were tattered and his hair was a little messy, shouted excitedly when he saw Gu Chen.

Gu Chen had a strange look on his face as he looked around. It was such a coincidence that he had met Tang Jianqing here in the wilderness.

The Luo Sect had been destroyed, so a new disciple like Tang Jianqing could not be trusted by the Prophet. Naturally, he would not be taken away and could only choose his own path of survival.

The Tang Family's Young Master must have been returning home to Peidu, so he was on the same path as Gu Chen.

Tang Jianqing must have left the Luo Sect a few days earlier than Gu Chen. However, he did not even have a mount, so it was not strange that the leisurely Gu Chen had caught up with him.

"Why is Young Master Tang in such a sorry state?"

Although Gu Chen had a rough guess, he still could not understand how Tang Jianqing had been reduced to such a beggar in just a few days.

Upon hearing this question, Tang Jianqing immediately looked sad and indignant, as if he had finally found someone to pour out his grievances to. He poured out all his grievances to Gu Chen.

"Brother Chen, we've really been unlucky for eight lifetimes! We worked so hard to enter the Luo Sect, but we have yet to obtain any benefits from the sect. Who would have thought that the Luo Sect would collapse inexplicably overnight!

"This is unbelievable. By the time I reacted, almost all the Luo Sect disciples had run away. Only then did I realize that I had to leave.

"My sister and the Water Dance Army soldiers left many days earlier, so I wanted to leave with Brother Chen and Brother Yuan so that we could take care of each other.

"Who would have thought that Brother Chen would be long gone? I had no choice but to leave the Luo Sect alone.

"The disciples of the Luo Sect are really ruthless. Not only did they not leave a single Flood Dragon for me, but they even robbed me after a group of outer disciples found me. They even robbed me of all my valuables!"

"I had nothing left, so I could only travel on foot in the direction of Peidu. I hoped that I could reach a inhabited place as soon as possible so that my family could send someone to pick me up.

"The past few days have been really miserable. I was chased by wild beasts, eating wild fruits and drinking cold water... Since when have I suffered such treatment?!"

Tang Jianqing's eyes were full of tears at the end of his words. Gu Chen finally understood why he looked like a beggar.

As the saying goes, when disaster strikes, everyone goes their separate ways. Now that the Luo Sect was gone, those outer sect disciples no longer cared about the sect's rules. They must have seen Tang Jianqing's extraordinary clothes and "borrowed" some money from him.

It was this young master's fault for having too little experience. Not only did the accident happen half a beat late, but it also exposed his wealth, causing him to fall to such a state.

"Brother Chen, it's great to have met you. Don't worry, it doesn't matter if the Luo Sect collapses. You and I will return to Peidu. In the future, as long as I have a good life, you will have a share. "

After Tang Jianqing was done complaining, he looked at Gu Chen anxiously.

To be honest, it was too dangerous for a person to travel in this deep forest alone. He was afraid that he would encounter bandits again and be killed, leaving his corpse in the wilderness without anyone knowing.

Therefore, Gu Chen was like a life-saving straw, and he had to grab hold of it no matter what.

Regardless of whether he had the strength to escort her safely back to Peidu, at least he had a draconic beast!

With the Flood Dragon, the speed of leaving the forest would be much faster, and it would be less likely for them to encounter bandits and beasts.

Hearing Tang Jianqing's request, Gu Chen frowned slightly.

Previously, he was willing to form a relationship with the Tang family because he needed them to conceal his true identity.

However, now that the Luo Sect was gone, there was no need to do so. Tang Jianqing was no longer of any use to him.

Gu Chen dared not compliment the temperament of this young master of the Tang family, nor was he interested in whether he lived or died.

"Young Master Tang, to be honest, I'm already disheartened after going through so much trouble to enter the Luo Sect, and I have no intention of relying on other forces. Young Master Tang, good luck to you!"

Gu Chen sighed. After that, he let Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex continue to move forward.

Seeing that Gu Chen was going to abandon him, Tang Jianqing panicked and ran after him.

"Don't, Brother Chen. Even if you don't want to be the Tang family's draconic beast anymore, you can send me off. I promise I'll give you a satisfactory reward!"

Tang Jianqing panicked, worried that he had offended Gu Chen too much in the past, and that was why the latter was treating him coldly now.

However, he was a little confused. Didn't they clear up the misunderstanding when they entered the inner sect? Why did his attitude change now?

Gu Chen ignored Tang Jianqing, and the Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex walked at a steady pace. Tang Jianqing ran as fast as he could and followed behind.

With the Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex's speed, even if it deliberately slowed down, Tang Jianqing was soon left behind.

"Master, aren't you also planning to go to Peidu? The Tang family seems to have some power in Peidu. Maybe they can come in handy. "

Seeing that Tang Jianqing was almost out of sight, the Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex said.

He didn't know what Gu Chen planned to do in Peidu, but instead of starting from scratch there, he might as well use his relationship with the Tang family.

"The Tang family might be useful, but I'm not interested in serving this young master, Tang Jianqing."

Gu Chen answered calmly. The Infinite Tyrannosaurus Rex understood what he meant and said no more.

Next, Gu Chen continued moving forward. There wasn't much difference from before. He walked and stopped along the way, as if he was on a sightseeing tour.

Tang Jianqing desperately followed behind. Although he couldn't catch up with the Tyrannosaurus Rex in terms of speed, because Gu Chen had been resting for a long time, they met several times.

Every time they met, Tang Jianqing begged bitterly, but Gu Chen ignored him. Helpless, Tang Jianqing's temper changed a lot, and he no longer looked like the young master from before.

People always had to experience some hardships to see themselves clearly. Tang Jianqing realized that without his family background, he was nothing.

That night, Gu Chen hunted a wild beast, set up a bonfire, and roasted the beast's meat on the fire. It was delicious and golden.

Tang Jianqing finally caught up with him again. His hair was disheveled, and he even lost one of his shoes. His bare feet were covered in blood and mud, and he didn't know what he had encountered.

Smelling the delicious smell of the roasted meat, Tang Jianqing couldn't help but swallow his saliva. But seeing that Gu Chen didn't let him get close, he obediently sat in the distance.

Along the way, he had figured out Gu Chen's character. The more annoyed he was, the more he wouldn't agree. This guy didn't care what kind of background he had.

Halfway through the roasting of the beast's meat, the firewood was running out. Gu Chen frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Tang Jianqing knew that his chance had come. He hurriedly ran into the jungle and quickly came back with a pile of firewood. He took the initiative to help Gu Chen start a fire.
