Chapter 1845

Having said all that needed to be said, Gu Chen opened the door to see her off.

Ye Mi, however, didn't intend to leave immediately. She stood there, looking a bit hesitant.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Chen looked at her. Ye Mi's behavior tonight was a bit strange.

Ye Mi looked at Gu Chen, who seemed to be in a hurry to see her off. She felt a bit angry.

Wasn't she pretty enough?

Why did this guy only talk about business with her, and not even a word of gossip?

It was obviously a great opportunity for them to be alone. If it were any other man, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to drive her away!

Thinking of the task her foster father had given her, and looking at Gu Chen's stubborn face, she really didn't know what to do.

"Chen Yi, you made the greatest contribution in this mission. You've done me a great favor. Don't you want to ask anything of me?" Ye Mi hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Didn't I already ask? Help me get the information of the people I want, "Gu Chen answered.

"That's a separate matter. That was a request you made to Honesty Pavilion for your meritorious service. I mean, do you not have any thoughts about me personally?" Ye Mi said through gritted teeth. She felt her entire face heat up.

"What do you mean?" Gu Chen raised his eyebrows.

What a blockhead!

Ye Mi was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet. She finally calmed down and said calmly, "Although we've agreed to cooperate before, don't you think it's unfair for you to do too much, and for me to contribute too little?"

This was a very obvious hint. Ye Mi believed that as long as Gu Chen wasn't stupid, he would understand what she meant.

"Since it's a sincere cooperation, there's no need to care too much about gains and losses. Miss Ye, you're worrying too much. It's getting late, so you should go back early. "

Gu Chen smiled faintly, as if he didn't understand the deeper meaning in Ye Mi's words.

"I'm relieved that you think this way."

Hearing Gu Chen's words, Ye Mi somehow felt a sense of loss. She forced a smile, brushed past him, and left the room.

"I'll do my best to complete your task. Wait for my news."

She left quickly, disappearing into the darkness.

Gu Chen shook his head and closed the door as he gazed at her receding figure.

With Ye Mi's meticulous dressing tonight and her hesitant attitude, how could he not see her true intentions just now?

He could see that this woman was ambitious and had her own ideas, but she was unable to get rid of the fate that Ye Wunian had arranged for her.

"You want to tie me up with a woman? You're underestimating me. "

Gu Chen laughed self-deprecatingly. Then, he went back to cultivating.

In the night of Peidu, Ye Mi had just left the Luo Water Palace, and he seemed to be in a daze.

She didn't know what was wrong with her. When her foster father gave her a death order, her heart resisted.

Ever since she was a child, she had always been very proud. She didn't want to be like her other sisters, so she had always worked hard to prove that she could rely on herself to make a career.

Because of this, she had been single until now, rejecting all suitors.

However, everything seemed to have changed because of the appearance of Gu Chen.

At first, she just wanted to use him to help her, thinking that she could escape unscathed, but now she had fallen into such a deep trap.

She clearly resisted her foster father's order in her heart, but just now in Gu Chen's room, she had somehow said those words.

When Gu Chen's words and actions made it clear that he had no interest in her, she even became angry, disappointed, and so on.

She didn't know what was wrong with her. As an assassin, she should be able to control her emotions perfectly, but in front of the other party, she couldn't seem to do so!

That pair of pitch-black, deep eyes always gave her a feeling that she couldn't see through them.

He was so confident and aloof, different from any man she had ever met.

Ye Mi's mood was extremely conflicted. She was at a loss …

A few days later.

Ye Mi came to the Luo Water Palace again, bringing the good news that Gu Chen wanted.

"The Pavilion Master has agreed to your request, but for the sake of confidentiality, the relevant information can only be viewed in the Divine Ascension World," Ye Mi said.

Even she felt it was a bit unbelievable when she said this.

Her foster father had so readily handed over such confidential and important information to Gu Chen. When she received the reply, she couldn't understand it no matter how hard she tried.

"Alright, I accept the arrangement." Gu Chen didn't object.

Seeing that Gu Chen didn't seem surprised at all, as if he had already expected this, Ye Mi couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Why did the Pavilion Master agree to your request so easily? "

Gu Chen just smiled and changed the subject. "Since the Pavilion Master has agreed, shall we enter the Divine Ascension World now?"

Seeing that he wasn't willing to say more, Ye Mi didn't insist and simply nodded.

So, Gu Chen took out the Divine Ascension Bead he had just obtained a few days ago, and Ye Mi also took out her own.

Gu Chen quickly established a connection with the Divine Ascension Bead, and with a thought, he stepped into the Divine Ascension World!

The Divine Ascension World of Honesty Pavilion was still a small three-story building. Outside the building was a misty blue void, as if it had been like this since ancient times.

Even though this was his second time entering the Divine Ascension World, Gu Chen still felt it was a novelty. His illusory soul peered out of the window, curious about what kind of world it was.

The Divine Ascension Sect had created the Divine Ascension World, making the originally vast Primordial Chaos Dao World free of space-time boundaries. People from anywhere in the Dao World could communicate with each other in real time without any barriers.

However, these spiritual worlds were isolated from each other. Outside of Honesty Pavilion, what kind of scenery did the other Divine Ascension Worlds look like?

Was it possible for the various Divine Ascension Worlds to be connected to each other?

Gu Chen was very interested in this Divine Ascension World. This was an invention that the Chaotic Sea had never seen before.

"The information you want is on the third floor. You can go in with the Divine Ascension Bead's authority. I won't go up with you. I'll wait for you here."

Ye Mi's illusory soul was right next to Gu Chen. She pointed to the stairs and reminded him.

"Alright."

Gu Chen nodded in agreement and immediately walked up the stairs, taking note of his surroundings in passing.

The last time he had entered the Divine Ascension World, there had been many assassins coming and going from the pavilion. However, for some reason, the first floor of the Divine Ascension World was empty today.

When Gu Chen entered the second floor, he still didn't find any assassins, which was a little strange.

He glanced at the mission board on the second floor, which listed many missions that Honesty Pavilion had recently received. The rewards could be said to be generous, but the strange thing was that there were only a few who had accepted them.

Gu Chen couldn't help but narrow his eyes. What had happened?

This wasn't his purpose for coming here, so he continued to the third floor.

The last time he had tried to enter the third floor, he had been blocked by a powerful mental barrier. This time, however, he had the authority of the Divine Ascension Bead, so he could enter unimpeded.

The layout of the third floor was not much different from the first and second floors. There was also a huge glowing round table in the center.

Gu Chen walked up to the round table and placed his hand on it. Instantly, dense information surged into his mind.
