Chapter 1962
As for Gu Chen, Chen Yunfei's fate was gradually entangled in the sky above him. Under the influence of Taoism, his appearance and body were changing into Chen Yunfei's.
However, this change had only just seeped into Gu Chen's body before it was destroyed by the boundless golden blood energy. If Gu Chen had not controlled the blood energy in time, even the fate that was entangled outside his body would have collapsed!
Seeing this, the Great Prophet was secretly amazed. The Glorious Ancient Overlord Body was indeed the Glorious Ancient Overlord Body. It could even suppress the illusory fate.
The process of taking Chen Yunfei's fate lasted for about half an hour. When Chen Yunfei's fate was completely entangled around Gu Chen, his body also quickly turned into Taoism and disappeared from the world at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, under the influence of fate, some memories appeared in Gu Chen's mind. It was the short life of Chen Yunfei.
Because he had been frozen by the Chen Clan Leader, Chen Yunfei's life was too simple. He only had one obsession in his heart, which was to revitalize the Chen Clan.
This was the will that the Chen Clan Leader had instilled in him. He had also treated it as his life's ambition and worked hard. Therefore, he was a little eager for quick success.
In the end, this brought about painful consequences. Unfortunately, Chen Yunfei was possessed by the devil during his cultivation. Due to his lack of experience in dealing with it, his soul was eventually destroyed.
He was supposed to be dead, but his unfulfilled ambition had left behind a bit of his Soul to protect his broken body. However, with just that bit of Soul, it would never be able to help him wake up.
"Today, I'm borrowing your fate. I owe you a favor, and I'll help you end your karma."
"In your name, I'll help the Chen Clan out of its predicament to comfort your soul in heaven."
Gu Chen quietly digested Chen Yunfei's memories and mumbled to himself.
When the fate was about to be stabilized, he raised his hand again. Under his control, a large mass of ominous black gas slowly rose and merged with him.
It was like a clear river had been poured with ink, stirring it until it was pitch black. After diluting it, it returned to normal.
The Great Prophet, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes. He waved his sleeves and shouted.
"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed!"
Suddenly, the Fate around Gu Chen seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil. It was as if it was shrouded in mist, unfathomable and elusive.
When the dust settled, the Great Prophet looked at Gu Chen again and felt that he was a complete stranger.
It was as if he was no longer Gu Chen, but the real Chen Yunfei.
"Interesting. After personally performing the technique, I gained a deeper understanding of the Great Destiny Art."
Gu Chen's eyes were deep and dark. He glanced at the Great Prophet and confirmed that Gu Chen was still Gu Chen.
"We've wasted quite a bit of time. Hurry up and leave this place. Otherwise, the Chen Clan might get suspicious," the Great Prophet reminded.
Thus, the two of them left the secret place. When they reached the entrance, Clan Leader Chen, who had been waiting impatiently, hurried over to welcome them.
"Have all the hidden dangers been resolved?" Clan Leader Chen asked.
The so-called hidden dangers were naturally Chen Yunfei's true body. Out of some concerns, Clan Leader Chen didn't plan to tell anyone in the clan that Gu Chen wasn't Chen Yunfei.
Since the secret couldn't be revealed, no matter how much he cherished Chen Yunfei, a descendant of the clan, he had to ensure that no one would ever see his corpse.
"Rest assured, Clan Leader."
Gu Chen nodded. Only then did Clan Leader Chen calm down.
"Just now, the clan's elders found this place, but I brushed them off. I told them that you haven't been home for a long time and that you're paying respects to your ancestors. We'll hold an elder meeting later, "Clan Leader Chen said.
There were ancestral tablets in the clan's secret place. His words wouldn't raise any suspicions.
"Also, according to the elders, the Jade Clan and the two holy lands have sent envoys to the Chen Clan. They want an explanation."
Clan Leader Chen looked at the Great Prophet and said politely, "Great Prophet, the elders of our clan are all uneasy. They want to see you."
Gu Chen and the Great Prophet exchanged glances when they heard that.
Although the Jade Dynasty was close to the Pei Dynasty, the distribution of power within it was completely different.
Although the original Pei Dynasty had the royal Scorching Sun Clan, it was actually a feudal system. The Scorching Sun Clan didn't have strong control over the seven nations.
Because of this, when the Scorching Sun Clan had an internal strife, the seven nations changed in such a short time. This was also the reason why Gu Chen wanted Liu Yan to strengthen the centralization of power after the new Pei Dynasty was established.
However, the Jade Dynasty was different. The royal Jade Clan of the Jade Dynasty had been controlling this land for a long time. They didn't have to worry about being feudal. With the rich spiritual mines in their territory, they were even richer.
However, although the royal power of the Jade Clan was more stable, there hadn't been a Sage Realm powerhouse in the clan for a long time. On the land of the Jade Dynasty, there were two holy lands — the Eight Branches Holy Land and the Green Willow Holy Land!
Like the Jade Clan, which represented the Jade Dynasty, these two holy lands had seats in the Heavenly Pu Dao Court. They were two of the 82 powers present!
Although the original Scorching Sun Clan had to worry about the feudal states within their territory being disobedient or even becoming too powerful, they still had the right to speak.
On the other hand, the Jade Clan had two great powers that were on equal footing with them. In fact, these two powers even had Sages. In comparison, the situation in the Jade Dynasty was naturally much more complicated.
Before coming to the Jade Dynasty, Gu Chen had done his homework. The Chen Clan, which had been overseen by Saint Chen, had once been on equal footing with the two Holy Lands in the Jade Dynasty. During its peak, the Chen Clan had even suppressed them.
However, after Sage Chen disappeared, the Chen Clan gradually declined. They were even jointly suppressed by the Jade Clan and the two holy lands. Their sphere of influence and living space became smaller and smaller.
In the eyes of the three great powers of the Jade Dynasty, the Chen Clan had been hiding from the world for many years. They had gradually forgotten about their threat.
However, they did not expect that the neighboring Dacheng Dynasty would suddenly change. The cause of this change was actually a junior of the Chen Clan!
It was impossible to hide the fact that the emissary of the Heavenly Pu Dao Court had gone to Pei Du from the various great powers present at the Dao Court's meeting. Therefore, the fact that Chen Yi was the genius of the Chen Clan, Chen Yunfei, and Chen Yunfei was backed by the Great Prophet of the Luo Sect would definitely spread immediately!
As the three great powers that had a conflict of interest with the Chen Clan and were so close to the Pei Dynasty, this series of changes would definitely trigger the sensitive nerves of the Jade Clan and the two holy lands.
How close was the alliance between the Chen Clan and the Luo Sect?
Did the Chen Clan have any ambitions for the rich land of the Jade Dynasty?
All kinds of worries and guesses would naturally cause the three great powers to probe. The arrival of their emissaries at this time could be said to be very normal. It was within the expectations of Gu Chen and the others.
The elders of the Chen Clan would definitely feel uneasy when they suddenly found out about the Pei Dynasty and were being questioned by the emissaries of the various great powers.
The reason why they wanted to meet the Great Prophet was very simple. They wanted to confirm if the Great Prophet had really reached the Saint Realm. It could even be said that their ally, the Luo Sect, was not reliable!
