Chapter 1995

On Mt. Dingkong, the three demons who had lost the ability to resist were escorted to Gu Chen's courtyard.

After all, there were many people in the Chen Clan's ancient city, and the restrictions were not as complete as on Mt. Dingkong. Therefore, just in case, Gu Chen ordered the three demons to be escorted here and prepared to interrogate them slowly.

"Why did you come to my Mt. Dingkong? Tell me everything, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."

After throwing the three demons into a house, the clay bodhisattva brought over a bench. Gu Chen sat down and asked expressionlessly.

Pu Yao and Zhen Yao were both seriously injured. At this time, they endured their injuries and stared at Gu Chen with hatred, not saying a word.

However, the thorny demoness was flexible. She forced a smile and said, "There's no harm in telling you. The Sacred Lord ordered us to probe the Chen Clan to decide the next step."

This answer was standard, but Gu Chen frowned and said doubtfully, "With Sacred Willow's strength, if he wants to know the Chen Clan's situation, he can just make a trip himself. Why beat around the bush? Isn't he afraid that you won't be able to return? "

"What qualifications does the Chen Clan have for my Sacred Lord to descend? Do you think that just because the Eight Branches Sacred Ground is gone, you can replace their position and be on equal footing with the Green Willow Sacred Ground? "

Pu Yao sneered. In his opinion, Gu Chen's question was very ignorant. Once one reached the Saint Realm, how could he easily show his face in public?

If the Chen Clan could not withstand a single blow and they could deal with it, wouldn't Sacred Willow be known as bullying the weak?

And if the Chen Clan's strength exceeded his expectations, they would not dare to kill his messenger. They had to probe back and forth to control the situation.

Pu Yao's mockery did not anger Gu Chen. Instead, he fell into deep thought.

Under normal circumstances, he could understand the Green Willow Sacred Ground's probing behavior, but the recent situation was a bit strange.

Since the matter involved Ancestor Mu, he inevitably became suspicious, so he needed to get to the bottom of it.

In fact, he could have used a softer way of talking to the three demons, but because he wanted to understand everything, he showed his flamboyant side so that he could capture the three demons and interrogate them.

"Although the Chen Clan has been living in seclusion for many years, our foundation might not be weaker than the Green Willow Sacred Ground. The Great Prophet of Luo Sect is overseeing my Mount Dingkong, so it's only right for Sage Liu to pay a visit in person. Sending three small fries like you is just a disgrace. "

Thoughts spun rapidly in Gu Chen's mind. He then opened his mouth to mock Liu Sheng, as if he did not take Liu Sheng seriously at all.

The Saint of the Luo Sect was guarding the Dingkong Mountain?

When the three demons heard this, they were slightly shocked. They didn't say anything and exchanged glances.

Gu Chen noticed their expressions and had a rough idea of what was going on. He said, "If it was during normal times, I wouldn't dare to touch you because of Sage Liu. However, with the support of the Great Prophet, the Chen Clan will have to make an example out of you if we wish to establish our position in the Jade Dynasty. Do you really think that I won't kill you? "

"Even if I kill all of you, with the Great Prophet around, do you believe that this matter will end without a conclusion? There is no way Sage Liu will fight to the death with a Saint, a Saint who is proficient in Fate Dao, for all of you!"

When the three demons heard this, their expressions changed, and they felt uneasy!

It was true that the Chen Clan did not have the guts to kill them, but the Saint did!

Some things were very realistic. Even though Sage Liu had always treated them well, it was impossible for him to fall out with a Saint for their deaths. After all, he had to consider the other people in the Sacred Ground.

When they realized that their lives might really be in danger, the three demons lost their confidence. They no longer looked at Gu Chen as fearlessly as before.

"If you don't want to die, cooperate with me. Answer my questions truthfully. If I find out that you are hiding anything, you will definitely die! "

After Gu Chen warned them, he gestured to the Clay Bodhisattva to take the thorn demoness and hazel demoness away.

He wanted to interrogate the three of them separately so that he could ensure that they were not lying.

After the two demons were taken away, Pu Yao, who was left behind, felt his heart pounding as he recalled the ruthlessness of the other party.

"Let me ask you, has there been any outsiders visiting the Green Willow Sacred Ground recently? Has Sage Liu gone out or received anyone? "

"You'd better think carefully before answering. If your answer is different from the other two, you know the consequences …"

Gu Chen asked the questions that he cared about, not letting go of any details. After Pu Yao had answered all of them, he called the thorn demoness in.

Soon, the three demons were all interrogated, and their answers were almost the same.

During this time, there had been no outsiders visiting the Green Willow Sacred Ground, and there was no news of Sage Liu going out.

Of course, the three demons were not sure. After all, Sage Liu would not report to them when he went out.

Unable to get any more information from the three demons, he continued to imprison them. Gu Chen left the house, and the Clay Bodhisattva followed.

Looking at the green in the courtyard, Gu Chen was deep in thought. The Clay Bodhisattva behind him asked nervously, "Boss, how is it?"

"Preliminary judgment is that Sage Liu should have no idea what Ancestor Mu is doing behind the scenes. It was not Ancestor Mu's intention to target the Chen Clan."

Gu Chen pondered. The reason why he interrogated the three demons in such detail was to determine Sage Liu's position.

If the Green Willow Sacred Ground was ordered to target the Chen Clan, then the Chen Clan's situation would be even worse. It meant that Ancestor Mu would not give up until he achieved a certain goal.

However, under his previous probing, the three demons clearly did not know that the Great Prophet had been invited away by Ancestor Mu. Logically speaking, if Ancestor Mu had instructed Sage Liu to take action, he would definitely inform them of this matter. Sage Liu would not have kept it from his subordinates.

In addition, according to the three demons, Sage Liu had not gone out during this time, and there were no visitors, so the possibility was even higher.

In other words, Sage Liu had targeted the Chen Clan purely because of his ambition to dominate the Jade Dynasty. Ancestor Mu had taken advantage of the situation and made use of him.

There was a huge difference between a precise plan and taking advantage of the situation. It showed Ancestor Mu's different determination.

If they could confirm that Ancestor Mu was only acting on a whim, then the possibility of avoiding this calamity was much higher!

"In that case, there is still a chance. What should we do next?"

The Clay Bodhisattva asked with a relaxed expression.

"If Ancestor Mu's goal is to force out the missing Sage Chen, he will let Sage Liu attack the Chen Clan. When that time comes, there can only be two possibilities.

"The first is that Sage Chen is really not dead and has appeared. Even if he wins against Sage Liu, Ancestor Mu will not let him go and will definitely kill him. Once he's dead, the Chen Clan will definitely be eradicated. "

"The second is that Sage Chen does not appear. Ancestor Mu will ultimately not wish for Sage Liu to unify the Jade Dynasty, so he will interfere. However, in order to force Sage Chen out, he must put the Chen Clan in a situation of certain death. Therefore, even if he interferes in the end, the Chen Clan will definitely suffer heavy losses. "

Gu Chen's expression was solemn. No matter which one it was, it was not a good thing for the Chen Clan. Furthermore, he was currently staying on Mount Fixed Sky with the identity of Chen Yunfei, so it was impossible for him to stay out of this matter.

"Is it impossible for Sage Chen to defeat Ancestor Mu?"

The Clay Bodhisattva blurted out. After saying this, he felt that this idea was too unrealistic and shook his head.

Dao Ancestors were extremely powerful. If Sage Chen wanted to defeat Ancestor Mu, he would have to advance to the Dao Ancestor realm.

However, it was extremely difficult to prove one's Dao and become an ancestor. It was said that one had to completely master a Dao technique.

Although the Three Fixed Sacred Techniques that Sage Chen had created were famous in the entire Dao World and were known as the pinnacle of the Sage Great Dao, the word pinnacle actually limited his potential.

No matter how powerful a self-created Dao technique was, how could it be closer to a Great Dao than a Dao technique derived from the Primordial Dao Law?

Therefore, when Sage Chen's prestige had spread far and wide back then, some Dao Ancestors had asserted that it was impossible for him to advance to the ninth-fold Dao Integration Realm.

The pinnacle of the Sage Great Dao was a compliment to the Three Fixed Sacred Techniques that he had created. Even among the 8,555 small techniques, the Three Fixed Sacred Techniques could suppress most of them. This showed how amazing Sage Chen was. However, an incomplete small Dao technique could never compare to a Great Dao technique. It was the same for the Three Fixed Sacred Techniques!

The probability of Sage Chen advancing to the Dao Ancestor realm was simply too low. Moreover, even if he was, Ancestor Mu had already cultivated in the Dao Ancestor realm for a very long time. The difference in strength between the two was probably not small.

"Since both outcomes are very bad, boss, can we nip the problem in the bud?" the Clay Bodhisattva asked after some deliberation.

"How?"

"Just like how we got rid of the Orochi Saint, boss should kill Sage Liu first. This way, Ancestor Mu won't have a spear to use and might give up on his plan."

The Clay Bodhisattva made a gesture of cutting his head.

"This plan is not appropriate. If Sage Liu is also dead, then the Jade Dynasty will have no more Saints. Who do you think Ancestor Mu will suspect first?"

"When that time comes, it might make things worse. Sage Chen is clearly not around, but the other party will suspect that Sage Chen killed Sage Liu. Then, they will get to the bottom of it."

Gu Chen shook his head. The Clay Bodhisattva's thinking was too simple.

"Then what should we do? Wait for death? "the Clay Bodhisattva said with a bitter smile.

Gu Chen fell silent. He really could not think of a suitable solution.

"So that old poisonous snake died in your hands. You really can't judge a book by its cover."

Suddenly, an indifferent voice came from beside the two of them!

Gu Chen's expression changed instantly, and the Clay Bodhisattva panicked. Who had eavesdropped on their conversation? When did they sneak over? How long had they been listening for?!

The two of them looked toward the source of the voice at the same time!

They saw the originally loose and ordinary weeds on the ground emit bursts of green light and transform into the phantom of a man!

The man had green hair, blue eyes, and a handsome appearance. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked extraordinary.

"Who are you?"

Gu Chen's face revealed an intense fear. He had the instinct of foresight. Logically speaking, it was impossible for the other party to be so close to him without him noticing it!

This kind of person was extraordinary!

"Weren't you discussing me just now? Can't you guess who I am? "

The green-haired man said calmly, but his eyes that were staring at Gu Chen flickered.

Honestly speaking, the matter that the two of them were discussing was too sensitive. It actually involved Ancestor Mu, which made him very concerned. He felt that he was completely out of the situation and even felt like he was being played.

Seeing that the two of them did not continue chatting, he could not hold it in any longer. Therefore, he deliberately revealed his face and wanted to get to the bottom of the matter!
