Chapter 2034
Seeing that Zhang Hao was no longer pestering her, Hai Xuan's eyes showed wariness.
This direct disciple of the Supreme Energy Palace was clearly here for the Sea Heaven Palace. Seeing that he had compromised so easily, she needed to pay special attention to prevent him from playing any tricks.
"Everyone, follow me."
Hai Xuan led the way deep into the Vast Sea Race's territory and quickly arrived at the Sea Heaven Palace.
The Sea Heaven Palace was magnificent and extremely luxurious. The gems inlaid on the pillars were priceless in the outside world, but here, they were only for illumination.
Two elders of the Vast Sea Race stood guard at the palace door. Hai Xuan walked up and showed the clan leader's order before the two elders let them in.
Passing through the protective formation, the moment they stepped into the Sea Heaven Palace, everyone's eyes lit up.
Countless treasures of heaven and earth, talisman weapons, and medicinal pills were piled up here. Brilliant lights and vibrant colors flowed everywhere, dazzling one's eyes.
"Can I really pick any treasure here and take it away?"
Sheng Kuafu took a deep breath. Even though he had heard that the Vast Sea Race was rich, seeing it with his own eyes, he knew how poor the Dawn God Race was.
The treasures here he could tell were all valuable. Those he could not tell, just from appearance and aura, were definitely extraordinary!
"The Vast Sea Race has always been trustworthy. If Young Master Sheng has anything you like, feel free to take it," Hai Xuan said generously.
Hai Xuan said generously. Hearing this, Sheng Kuafu, who was eager to make a move, immediately walked around the hall, looking for the ideal treasure.
Gu Chen also looked around. There were all kinds of treasures here. Maybe there really was something he needed.
Zhang Hao also walked around curiously. Hai Xuan kept a close distance from him, clearly taking special care of him.
This was not because of Zhang Hao's noble status, but because she was worried that he would do something when she was not paying attention.
Even though a direct disciple of the Supreme Energy Palace would not steal, but it was better to be safe than sorry. If she really lost a treasure here, she would be suspected of dereliction of duty.
The Sea Heaven Palace was very big, and there were many treasures. Luckily, the Vast Sea Race did not have a time limit, so Gu Chen could slowly choose.
Casually pulling out a simple and unadorned long spear from the weapon rack, Gu Chen carefully felt it. The long spear was like a dragon that was about to leap out of his hand, full of vitality and explosive power.
In addition to the powerful force, Gu Chen also felt a rather weak aura. After carefully identifying it, he discovered that it came from a mark on the spear.
Gu Chen had seen this mark before when he had entered the city. He guessed that it was a mark of the Ocean Race. With this mark, no matter how many treasures there were, they would be able to detect it immediately if they were lost.
Gu Chen touched a few more treasures and found that all of them had a mark on them. The placement of the treasures in the Sea Heaven Palace seemed casual, but in reality, they were all very particular.
Two hours passed in a blink of an eye.
Suddenly, Gu Chen's gaze was fixed on an inconspicuous dagger in the corner.
The dagger looked like it was made of ordinary iron. The only thing special about it was the blue luster that occasionally flashed on the blade.
Placed in a pile of colorful treasures, the blue luster of the dagger was easily covered. However, when Gu Chen was less than ten feet away from the dagger, he felt an inexplicable sense of panic!
He fixed his eyes on it, and the more he looked, the more disgusted he felt. It was as if the item in front of him was naturally resisted by his Overlord Body.
This feeling was unprecedented. He remained calm and casually picked up the dagger from the rack. Suppressing the disgust in his heart, he carefully looked at it.
He did not see anything special about the dagger, but the feeling of disgust lingered.
Gu Chen was deep in thought. He did not look at the dagger any longer than the other treasures, and he quickly put it back on the rack.
After that, he looked at many more treasures, but his mind was filled with that dagger. He was curious about its origin.
This dagger was definitely not a weapon that was suitable for him, but it could make his Yaogu Overlord Body feel disgusted, which meant that it was definitely not that simple.
Gu Chen had an idea. He did not have any particular interest in the other treasures, so he might as well choose this dagger later.
Even if he could not use it, it would be worth it if he could figure out its secret.
As Gu Chen was thinking, a voice suddenly came to his mind.
"Brother Chen, when you're choosing treasures later, can you take the stone statue on your left that's leaning against the pillar?"
It was Zhang Hao's voice. Gu Chen was surprised. At that moment, Zhang Hao was casually holding a jade bottle and admiring it. He did not seem to be surprised at all.
Gu Chen looked in the direction he was pointing and soon found the stone statue. The stone statue looked simple, and it seemed that the craftsman responsible for the carving must have been very poor.
However, it had been preserved in the alternate space at the bottom of the sea for so many years, and it was still so lifelike after being found and placed in the Sea Heaven Palace by the Sea Sea Race. At least the material of the stone statue itself was not bad.
"Is there anything special about this item?"
Gu Chen asked Zhang Hao via voice transmission. He also did not show any change in expression.
"This item is useless to Brother Chen, but it's very useful to me. If Brother Chen can bring this item out and hand it to me, I will definitely thank you greatly," Zhang Hao quickly replied.
His voice was no longer as lazy and frivolous as before. It could be heard that he really valued this item.
Gu Chen recalled Zhang Hao's previous actions. It was likely that Zhang Hao had come to the Sea Heaven Palace for this item.
"What benefits can Brother Zhang give me?"
Asked Gu Chen calmly. Befriending Zhang Hao was one of his main goals in coming to Binhai City. Now, a great opportunity seemed to be right in front of him.
"It's meaningless to promise you any treasures. After all, there are many in the Sea Heaven Palace. How about this? I owe you a favor! Brother Chen, you should know the weight of my favor. "
Zhang Hao answered straightforwardly. Gu Chen was tempted when he heard that.
That's right. It was very difficult to move him with treasures. After all, what Zhang Hao wanted was a true treasure. How could anything he could take out be more precious than the stone statue?
However, a favor was different. This was something all the guests in the Spring Carp Building wanted!
"Brother Zhang's favor is indeed precious, but why didn't you look for Brother Sheng but me?"
Asked Gu Chen calmly.
"Although Sheng Kuafu has the intention to befriend me, how can a favor be more important than an opportunity if there are treasures in the Sea Heaven Palace that he urgently needs?
"However, Brother Chen is different. I know the Chen Clan's situation. Brother Chen has offended Bao Yu. It's not a small problem.
"Of course, I know that Brother Chen isn't that simple. Since you dared to take action, you naturally have a way to deal with Bao Yu. However, if you can use my power to save some effort, why not?
"If you accept my favor, you might be able to protect Brother Chen's life in the future. I won't elaborate on the potential benefits."
When Gu Chen heard Zhang Hao's straightforward words, he said in amusement, "Didn't Brother Zhang say that the Grand Qi Palace has rules that all factions must be treated equally outside? If Brother Zhang favors me, won't you be breaking the rules of the Grand Qi Palace? "
"Hehe, rules are set by people, so they can naturally be changed. If Brother Chen is willing to help me with this, you can use my name as you wish in the future! "
