Chapter 195
Gu Chen knew that the other party might be trying to goad him into action, but Ji Lanchu's words had indeed moved him.
Would he, Gu Chen, be afraid of the Huangfu Clan?
Enduring silently was for the sake of better revenge, but it didn't mean that he had to hide when something happened. If this continued, would he lose his vigor one day?
He knew that Ji Lanchu was in great trouble and that it would be extremely dangerous to get involved. However, if he could help her escape, the relationship between the Central Plains Imperial Family and the Huangfu Clan would definitely worsen. Wouldn't that be a good thing for him?
Seeing that Gu Chen had changed his mind, Ji Lanchu was stunned for a moment. Then, a smile blossomed on her face.
"If I knew that honey traps were useless against you, goading me into action would be more effective. I wouldn't have to work so hard."
Gu Chen was speechless. "Your repayment better be able to move me. Otherwise, I will leave immediately and let you be Huangfu Wuji's good granddaughter-in-law."
Ji Lanchu's expression immediately tensed up. After pondering seriously, she replied. "I can provide you with all the information I know about the Huangfu Clan, even some of the more secretive ones!"
Gu Chen couldn't help but take a few more glances at Ji Lanchu. It seemed like she was certain that he had a grudge with the Huangfu Clan.
"Not enough!" he replied coldly.
"I have a few earth grade cultivation techniques and ten million origin crystals on me. I'll give them all to you!"
Ji Lanchu immediately increased her offer.
Gu Chen was slightly shocked. As expected of the little princess of the imperial family, she still had so much money on her even after escaping from a wedding.
However, he still replied coldly. "Not enough!"
Ji Lanchu was instantly angered. She glared at Gu Chen hatefully.
"Don't be too greedy. Your strength isn't much stronger than mine. It's still uncertain whether you can help me!
"At least I'm the only one who dares to help you and is willing to help you."
Gu Chen's words rendered Ji Lanchu speechless.
"I also have a Thousand Refinements Sacred Sect's Heavenly Invitation Talisman," she continued.
"What's that?" Gu Chen was stunned.
Ji Lanchu's mouth twitched. "It seems like you're not a citizen of the Nine Prefectures. You don't even know about the Thousand Refinements Sect's Heavenly Summoning Talisman. Strange, you're not from the Nine Prefectures, so why do you have a grudge against the Huangfu Clan? "
She was fishing for information, but Gu Chen ignored her.
"I don't know about the Thousand Refinements Sacred Sect. You should have heard of the King of Weapons Jiang Baiming, right?" she asked.
Gu Chen nodded as he recalled the rumor that everyone knew. "The one who obtains the weapon king's armory will obtain the world."
The Weapon Sovereign, Jiang Baiming, was the number one blacksmith of the Middle Earth Empire eight hundred years ago. He was also the number one blacksmith genius in the history of the Kunlun Continent.
When he was alive and after he died, he had left behind countless legends. Among them, the most famous was the Armament Armory. The little black cauldron in Gu Chen's hands was closely related to this.
"Hmph, this is outrageous. Who knows how much of it is true? The Weapon Sovereign, Jiang Baiming, came from the Thousand Refinements Sacred Sect. Without a doubt, the sect with the highest level of blacksmithing in the continent. "
"And my Heavenly Summoning Talisman can invite a blacksmith of the Thousand Refinements Sacred Sect to help you refine a transcendent artifact. Do you understand its value?"
Ji Lanchu explained.
Gu Chen immediately nodded. "I understand. But, it's not enough."
"You're taking advantage of my misfortune!"
Ji Lanchu glared at Gu Chen with eyes that were about to spit fire. She clenched her teeth so hard that they were about to break.
This person was too despicable. He didn't have the slightest bit of gentlemanly demeanor!
"You should know better than anyone how great the risk of helping you is. That means becoming the enemy of the entire Nine Prefectures."
Gu Chen calmly shook his head. "I don't want your Earth Grade cultivation technique either. I want the spatial technique that you used earlier. Also, you must tell me the truth about the whereabouts of the Immortal Samsara."
Ji Lanchu's expression softened a little. At least the other party wasn't insatiably greedy.
"Alright, it's a deal. I'll give you the reward after I successfully leave the Nine Prefectures."
"You must give it to me first." Gu Chen said.
"How do I know that you won't go back on your words after you get it?"
Ji Lanchu angrily said.
"Then give me half of it first."
A moment later, the two of them finally reached an agreement. Ji Lanchu first gave the spatial technique and the Heavenly Summoning Talisman to Gu Chen. As for the secret information of the Huangfu Clan and the ten million yuan crystals, she would give it to him later.
"As for the whereabouts of the Immortal Samsara, to be honest, I don't know either. I just arrived earlier than you today. I was afraid that you would discover my identity, so I disguised myself as him."
"I'm guessing that the Immortal Samsara might have gone to travel. It's obvious that the training hall has been vacant for a long time."
Ji Lanchu explained about the Immortal Samsara again. Looking at Gu Chen, she felt that this guy was too hard to deal with.
She had negotiated with him for so long, but she still couldn't gain any advantage.
"Why are you looking for the Immortal Samsara?"
Gu Chen pondered for a moment. Ji Lanchu shouldn't be lying. He had seen the situation in the training hall with his own eyes.
However, this was a bit troublesome. It seemed that the matter of the Incomplete Heaven and Incomplete Earth could only be discussed later.
"What I do there is my privacy. It has nothing to do with you. Since we have reached an agreement, we need to thoroughly understand each other's strength in order to cooperate better. "
"The road ahead is not going to be easy."
Ji Lanchu deliberately changed the topic and said solemnly.
…
On Mount Huaning, a group of soldiers dressed in dark red armor with prismatic silver mirrors on their chests lined up neatly. The leader was a bald man. He looked at the ashes of the training hall with a gloomy gaze.
In the ruins, there were still a few wisps of flames burning.
Not far in front of him, a group of Yin Yang Sword Sect's people were led by the sect leader. They lowered their heads in fear, not daring to even breathe loudly.
"Princess Lanchu has indeed been here, it can't be wrong. That flame is the royal family's Dragon Phoenix True Fire. "
The bald man's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, "And the dead Yin Yang Sword Sect disciples, from the way they died, were not killed by Princess Lanchu."
"In this way, there is only one possibility. The princess was kidnapped!"
"In your Yin Yang Sword Sect's territory, you actually let the princess be kidnapped. If this matter were to spread, do you know how much chaos it would cause?"
His voice suddenly rose.
"Lord, please forgive us! By the time we arrived, the murderer and the princess had already disappeared! "
The Yin Yang Sword Sect's sect leader hurriedly took the lead and kowtowed to apologize.
"Hmph, I won't argue with you about this for now."
The bald man looked into the distance, "Listen up, with this Mount Huaning as the center, start the search immediately. No matter what, you must find Princess Lanchu and the murderer for me!"
"Send out all the Yin Yang Sword Sect's people and inform all the nearby sects. Find me clues even if you have to dig three feet underground!"
"If you can't find any clues in three days, just wait for your death!"
"Yes, yes, we will do our best!"
Everyone in the Yin Yang Sword Sect hurriedly promised, greatly relieved in their hearts.
"And you."
The bald man looked at the Heavenly Mirror Mansion's soldiers behind him. "The princess has been kidnapped. The matter has already become big. Immediately go to the border cities of Youzhou and inform the border guards to completely seal the border!"
"You must find Princess Lanchu no matter what!"
