Chapter 1836

He didn't think that he could make the Clay Bodhisattva submit to him wholeheartedly in such a short period of time. He didn't have that kind of charm.

Therefore, he guessed that he must have some ulterior motive, but he couldn't figure it out.

Seeing that Gu Chen took the initiative to mention it, the Clay Bodhisattva did not deny it and nodded with a complicated expression. "I want to know why the Stone of Terror has no effect on you."

So it was this.

Gu Chen had already noticed that the Clay Bodhisattva had been staring at the Stone of Terror in his hand. When he realized that he was not affected by the Stone of Terror, his expression changed.

However, he didn't expect that the Clay Bodhisattva wouldn't hesitate to give up all his Dao techniques just to find out the answer.

Gu Chen pondered for a while. It was not easy for him to answer that question. He could not possibly tell the truth that it was because he was the Glorious Ancient Overlord Body, could he?

The strongest physique of the Ancient Underworld could move freely in the Primal Chaos, and it could almost resist all kinds of negative energy. What could a mere Stone of Terror do to it?

Gu Chen could tell that the Clay Bodhisattva attached great importance to this issue. Since the Clay Bodhisattva treated him with sincerity, he naturally could not lie casually.

"Can you tell me why you are so obsessed with this? If you don't tell me, it'll be hard for me to answer, "Gu Chen said after some consideration.

The Clay Bodhisattva was obviously hiding something from him. If he could not be honest, there was no need for him to answer.

The Clay Bodhisattva fell silent. It stopped in its tracks and lowered its head.

Gu Chen had the Unbounded Tyrannosaurus Rex stop where it was and just looked at it quietly, waiting for its answer.

If the other party was unwilling to open their hearts, he would not force them. However, the nature of this subordinate was a little different.

He never accepted people easily. He accepted the Clay Bodhisattva because he valued his Dao techniques, but if his character was not good enough, he would definitely not be able to stay by his side for long.

"Previously, I mentioned that the Fear Castle Master had killed one of my female friends. Actually, there are some things that I didn't say."

The Clay Bodhisattva struggled for a long time and finally spoke with a sorrowful expression on his face.

"I was there when he killed her. But under the power of that man, I was afraid. I was terrified. She died because of my cowardice! "

It was as if he had kept it bottled up in his heart for a long time. Now that he had said it all in one breath, his eyes reddened.

Gu Chen understood a little and said, "Because you didn't dare to face him directly and wanted to take revenge for that woman, you stole his Stone of Terror as revenge?"

"No, it's not for revenge!"

The Clay Bodhisattva shook its head, feeling a little emotional. "Because on that day, I backed down. She died, and this is the regret of my life! I swear, when I face that man again, I won't be so scared that I can't move! "

"I stole his Fear Stone to find a way to deal with his Fear Power. I hid in this Desolate Great Swamp and lived a life that was neither human nor ghost for countless years just to overcome my fear! "

"All these years, I have been trying to face the fear brought by the Stone of Terror. As long as I can withstand the power of this gem, I will no longer be afraid of that man. I can take revenge for her!"

"However, after so many years, I still can't overcome this obstacle. Every time I touch that jewel, I see her dying in front of me! "

By the end of his speech, the Clay Bodhisattva was already in tears. Gu Chen and Wuji Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't say anything. They didn't laugh at his tears or his cowardice.

For a man to take revenge for his beloved woman, he hid in this Desolate Great Swamp for countless years. Every day, he would experience the pain of losing his beloved through the Fear Stone. Was this cowardice?

No, this kind of man was stronger than anyone else. His willpower was beyond imagination.

Gu Chen didn't expect the Clay Bodhisattva to have such a story. Wuji Tyrannosaurus Rex also didn't expect this. His opinion of him changed a lot.

The great thief also had his own feelings. The Clay Bodhisattva's tears today wasn't because he was cowardly and incompetent. It was because he had held it in for far too long.

If Gu Chen didn't bring him out of that mud hole, it was hard to imagine how long he would continue to stay in there and how he would be tortured by his own heart demon.

Perhaps he wouldn't be able to overcome his fear even if he spent his entire life, because his obsession was too deep.

The deeper the obsession, the more powerful the Fear Stone. The Clay Bodhisattva who was deep in it probably didn't notice this at all.

This was the so-called the onlooker sees the game more clearly!

Gu Chen sighed. He already knew how to answer the Clay Bodhisattva's previous question.

"The reason why I'm not afraid of this Fear Stone is because of my physique. I can't tell you the details, but if you follow me sincerely, I promise you that I'll help you overcome your fear. One day, I'll let you kill the Fear Castle Lord with your own hands so that the dead can rest in peace. "

Gu Chen gave his promise. His tone was as calm as usual, but the Wuji Tyrannosaurus Rex beside him could feel the weight of these words.

The Celestial Thearch never made promises easily, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex never made promises easily!

Moreover, although he didn't mention the Glorious Ancient Overlord Body, he said it was because of his physique. This was enough to make people associate it and cause unknown risks.

A man of character!

The Wuji Tyrannosaurus Rex knew very well that Gu Chen could gather such a large group of companions not only because of his strength, but also because of his personality.

He was so smart that he could understand the pros and cons of every action, but he never bound his heart for benefits!

After hearing Gu Chen's promise, the Clay Bodhisattva wasn't as emotional as the Wuji Tyrannosaurus Rex. After all, he didn't understand Gu Chen.

He only felt that it was ridiculous and shameful for him to say what was in his heart in front of an outsider, even to the point where tears were streaming down his face.

He didn't know if Gu Chen could keep his promise, but this man gave him a very special feeling.

Since that was the case, and he had already walked out of the mud hole, he might as well follow him and give it a try. No matter how bad the situation was, it couldn't be worse than before.

At this moment, the Clay Bodhisattva finally gave up on the idea of escaping. He nodded at Gu Chen solemnly.

Gu Chen returned the Fear Stone to him and looked at the swamp in front of them. They weren't far from the border of the Swamp Nation.

"I have something for you to do next. Go and take a bath first. You don't have the right to follow me with such disheveled hair and dirty face."

Gu Chen said coldly. The Clay Bodhisattva's clothes hadn't been changed for god knows how many years, and his hair was extremely dirty.

In the past, he could be forgiven for soaking in muddy water every day. However, he had to maintain his human form in the future. He definitely couldn't be in such a disheveled state.

The Clay Bodhisattva scratched the back of his head awkwardly. He also knew that he couldn't be seen in this state, so he quickly found a clean pond to clean himself.

When he returned from cleaning, Gu Chen and the Wuji Tyrannosaurus Rex revealed a surprised look.

The neatly dressed Clay Bodhisattva didn't look like Pan An, but he gave off a solemn and holy feeling.
