Chapter 1953

He wore a long black cloak that completely covered his tall body.

He wore a strange goat mask that completely hid his face. It was impossible to figure out what race this person belonged to.

This was Gu Chen's first thought when he saw Dongfang Shan. This senior member of the Revolutionary Army had done a good job of keeping his identity a secret.

"As the leader of the Second Mountain and Sea Headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, you don't dare to show your true face. Not only is it a lack of sincerity, but it's also disappointing."

Gu Chen glanced at the depths of the ground and said sarcastically.

His tone was very disrespectful, causing the expression of the Peach Blossom Householder, who had led him here, to change. He was even a little angry.

Master Dongfang had great prestige in the Revolutionary Army. He was a real big shot that gave even the Ancestral Patriarchs headaches.

He had already lowered his status by personally coming to see Gu Chen this time. He did not expect the other party to be so audacious that the first thing he said upon meeting him was to ridicule him without the slightest bit of respect!

"Mr. Chen, you might not know who Master Dongfang is..."

The Peach Blossom Householder was about to speak when Dongfang Shan waved his hand, his gentle voice coming from the goat mask.

"Mr. Chen, the Revolutionary Army is engaged in the great cause of reforming the entire Dao World. Our enemies are the omnipotent Nine Major Dao Courts, so we naturally have to be careful."

"Not revealing my identity doesn't mean that I'm not sincere. Even within the Revolutionary Army, there are only a few who know my true identity. Please forgive me, Mr. Chen."

The other party was not angered by his sarcasm at all. Instead, he explained seriously. Gu Chen stopped making sarcastic remarks and said, "Since I can't see your true face, how can I be sure that you're the real Dongfang Shan?"

"Even if you look exactly like me, you can't be sure that I'm the real person, right? The Revolutionary Army has always used secret codes to confirm identities, so we have no such doubts. As for you, Mr. Chen, we still need to establish trust. "

Dongfang Shan smiled and extended his hand.

"I'm very clear about the details. This time, Thoughtlessness could be said to have suffered a crushing defeat in Great Sheng. If it weren't for Mr. Chen showing mercy, not only would the Revolutionary Army's operations in Great Sheng have been destroyed, but it would also cause a lot of trouble."

"Mr. Chen's suggestion is very good. It's the best of both worlds and reflects Mr. Chen's extraordinary wisdom. The Revolutionary Army sincerely wishes to form an alliance with Mr. Chen and the Hidden Dragon Clan."

Dongfang Shan was polite and sincere. When he mentioned the Hidden Dragon Clan, he turned to look at the seemingly empty corner of the underground space.

Gu Chen's eyelids twitched slightly. He had followed Master Peach Blossom here and did not reveal that the Hidden Dragon Clan's Patriarch was following him. However, Dongfang Shan had somehow seen through the Hidden Dragon Clan's Patriarch's invisibility.

Since he had already been seen through, there was a flash of light and shadow in the empty space, and the Hidden Dragon Clan's Patriarch revealed his true body.

"I have long heard of Mister Dongfang's great name," the Hidden Dragon Clan Leader said indifferently.

"Patriarch, you don't have to be so courteous. I know you don't have a good impression of me."

Dongfang Shan's tone carried a hint of helplessness. These words surprised Gu Chen as he looked at the Hidden Dragon Clan's Patriarch.

"When Ren Yin went out to train, he joined this Mister Dongfang's banner. As a result, his mind became muddled afterwards," the Hidden Dragon Clan Leader explained simply.

When Gu Chen heard this, he immediately understood. It turned out that Ren Yin had been influenced by Dongfang Shan back then. That was why he had wanted to use Modest Pavilion to get the Hidden Dragon Clan to join the Revolutionary Army.

It was a good thing to say that he had been influenced. No one wanted to see the most talented junior in the clan be bewitched by an outsider and do something stupid.

It was no wonder that the Hidden Dragon Clan Leader did not like Dongfang Shan. Ye Futian did not know what kind of charisma this person had to make Ren Yin want to bring the entire clan to follow him.

"Since we have decided to form an alliance, let bygones be bygones."

Gu Chen smiled and shook hands with Dongfang Shan, taking the initiative to ease the awkwardness between the two.

The alliance between the two parties was officially confirmed deep underground. After chatting for a while, Gu Chen handed over Ye Wunian, who had been thrown into the space in his body.

When Ye Wunian, who had become sloppy and dispirited these days, saw Dongfang Shan, he immediately looked ashamed and lowered his head in silence.

Dongfang Shan saw that Ye Wunian was fine and nodded. He smiled at Gu Chen and said, "I'll take him with me. But since we are in an alliance, there will be many times when we need to communicate in the future. I'll leave Peach Blossom with Mister Chen and be at your disposal. What do you think, Mister Chen?"

When he said this, Householder Peach Blossom was shocked, while the Hidden Dragon Clan Leader frowned slightly.

To put it nicely, it was convenient for both parties to communicate, but in reality, it was a kind of surveillance.

From the Clan Leader's point of view, keeping this person by his side was a hidden danger. It was best to find an excuse to reject him.

"Mister Dongfang is right. Householder Peach Blossom is a war-level killer of Modest Pavilion. It's a good thing that he's willing to stay by my side."

To everyone's surprise, Gu Chen agreed without hesitation and glanced at Taoist Master Peach Blossom with a smile.

This look gave Householder Peach Blossom an ominous premonition. He felt that the other party was up to no good when he agreed. He wanted to reject him instinctively, but he couldn't make the decision!

Dongfang Shan was a little surprised as well. He looked at Gu Chen with an even more curious gaze.

"Alright then. If Mister Chen needs any help in the future, don't hesitate to contact the Rebel Army. We are willing to be at your service."

"Alright, if Mister Dongfang has any instructions, I'll be there at your service."

Both of them had made up their minds, and their words were almost full of themselves. However, whether or not they took it seriously, no one knew.

"It's getting late. I should go."

After they finished talking, Dongfang Shan took his leave and left with Ye Wunian.

"Pavilion Master Ye, everything that happened before was a battle of standpoints. There will always be a winner and a loser in a fight between experts. I hope that you and I can bury the hatchet in the future."

Gu Chen suddenly said as he looked at Ye Wunian's back.

Ye Wunian stopped in his tracks, his body a little stiff.

Dongfang Shan turned to look at him with a thoughtful look.

Ye Wunian took a deep breath, turned around, and cupped his hands at Gu Chen.

"Mister Chen is a great talent. I accept my defeat wholeheartedly. I won't take revenge in the future. Don't worry, Mister Chen!"

This "Mister Chen" seemed to shatter the last of Ye Wunian's pride. Seeing this, Householder Peach Blossom sighed.

After this incident, Mister Dongfang's trust in Pavilion Master Ye would probably be greatly reduced. Moreover, losing an intelligence organization like Pavilion Master Ye, which had been operating for many years, would cause Pavilion Master Ye's status in the rebel army to plummet.

Ye Wunian finally turned to leave. Gu Chen wasn't sure if he would really let go of Gu Chen, but Dongfang Shan's words were a reminder.

Pavilion Master Ye was now his power, and Ye Mi and the others were also his subordinates. He didn't want Ye Wunian to be dissatisfied and play any tricks in the dark.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't afford to offend the Rebel Army, he would have killed Ye Wunian long ago.

"Taoist Peach Blossom, you're mine from now on."

Gu Chen stopped thinking, and his gaze fell on Householder Peach Blossom, who was a little nervous.

He naturally had his reasons for allowing Dongfang Shan to plant such a spy by his side.

Householder Peach Blossom's identity in the Rebel Army was troublesome, but at the same time, it was also a kind of convenience.

"Greetings, Pavilion Master."

Householder Peach Blossom smiled bitterly and bowed. He had a feeling that the coming days would definitely not be easy.
