Chapter 2051
After closing his eyes and pondering for a long time, Gu Chen finally made a decision. When he opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashed across them!
"Ren Yin, leave Binhai City immediately and evacuate our people. No matter what happens next, don't try to inquire about it to avoid being discovered. "
Gu Chen instructed Ren Yin with a decisive tone.
"But Boss, didn't you plan on getting me to disguise myself as Chen Yunfei when you attack Madam Du and appear in front of others in your place to avoid arousing suspicion? If I leave, what about the plan? Are you going to give up? "
Ren Yin was alarmed. Gu Chen sounded like he was prepared to throw the can away. It was hard not to worry.
Publicly, the Hidden Dragon Clan and Gu Chen were already in the same boat. They were bound together for good or bad. If Gu Chen's identity was exposed, the Hidden Dragon Clan would be finished sooner or later.
Privately, he had long developed feelings for Gu Chen after following him for so many years. He did not wish for his life to be in danger!
"The bait has already been thrown out. How can I give up on the plan? It's just that I have to change it a little. "
Gu Chen shook his head, realizing that his words were somewhat ambiguous. He explained, "I got you to disguise as me previously to make it easier for me to act in secret. But now that Chen Yunfei has disappeared in the Second Underground Hall's chaos, is that still important?"
"Boss, do you not plan on appearing as Chen Yunfei in the future?"
If Chen Yunfei continued to not appear, it would become a huge problem. Since there were suspicions, be it the Ghost Parade or the various Great Sages who were interested in the Great Heart Magic Art, they would not let the matter rest.
If Gu Chen did not want to face this, he would have to give up his identity as Chen Yunfei. However, his current faction was already too tied to Chen Yunfei. It was impossible for him to give it up just like that!
Chen Yunfei is just not appearing for the time being. He will naturally appear when the time is right.
Gu Chen shook his head. He had a rough idea. He could even resolve Chu Meixin's problem, but he might have to make her suffer.
No matter what he did, there would always be risks. He could only choose the most advantageous path!
"When Ren Yin leaves Binhai City, Jinqiao has to return to the Leaping Carp Building."
After instructing Ren Yin, Gu Chen turned to the Clay Bodhisattva and said seriously, "When the time comes, no matter who asks you about my whereabouts, just answer that you don't know. Just say that I sent you to the auction in the First Underground Hall. Some people might make things difficult for you. If you need, you, Sheng Kuafu, Hai Hong, and the others can help. They should give me some face. "
"What if the Great Sage asks?"
The Clay Bodhisattva asked. If the Great Sage came personally, Underground Jiu, the Underground Underground, Dragon Yin, and said, "Great.
"If the Great Sage personally interrogated me, it means that they are highly suspicious of me. That's unlikely."
"Besides, although Ugly Emperor interrupted today's auction, the Great Sages don't think much of him. They must have come to Binhai City because they want to obtain an auction item. They will spend more effort on that and not the illusory heart-shaped stone."
"The auction will definitely continue. As long as you last a day or two, everyone's attention will no longer be on you.
"Of course, just in case, if you really have no choice, use the name of the Grand Qi Palace's Zhang Hao. He owes me a favor, so I believe he will protect you."
Gu Chen hoped that the Clay Bodhisattva wouldn't need to use Zhang Hao because that fellow wasn't easy to deal with. Once he entered his line of sight, he might notice something.
However, the Clay Bodhisattva's safety was more important than this risk, so he still told him.
"Alright, Boss, don't worry."
The Clay Bodhisattva nodded heavily. The risk he needed to take was far greater than Ren Yin. Gu Chen didn't explain his plans, but he didn't mind. He just needed to carry out his orders.
Under Gu Chen's orders, Ren Yin left Binhai City that day, and the Clay Bodhisattva returned to the Leaping Carp Building.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, stayed near the three auction halls and inquired about the situation inside like a passerby watching the fun.
The lockdown lasted for several hours. When night fell, some of the detained cultivators from the Earth Second Hall were released one after another.
Sheng Kuafu and Hai Xuan were among them. Gu Chen saw Hai Dongxin lead them away with his own eyes.
This scene wasn't surprising. With the power of the Dawn Gods and the Eon Sea race, even a Great Sage wouldn't dare detain them for too long.
As for itinerant cultivators with weak backgrounds or unknown origins, they probably wouldn't be that lucky. It was unknown how long they would be imprisoned.
Gu Chen watched from afar as Hai Dongxin and the others headed for the Leaping Carp Building. It wasn't until they disappeared at the end of the street that he turned around and headed in another direction.
When he appeared in front of others again, he had already transformed into a tall and thin middle-aged Daoist priest with a wooden crown on his head.
The middle-aged Daoist priest was Zhao Qiu of the Dark World. Gu Chen stroked his mustache and identified the direction before heading towards Ji Yang's residence in Binhai City.
When he left Ji Yang's residence, Gu Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
It was impossible for passersby to know some insider information, but a middleman like Ji Yang was well-informed.
Today, the Great Sages had sealed off the second hall, but they hadn't found any useful clues.
There were more than one missing person like Chen Yunfei. Many of the guests who participated in the black market auction had hidden their identities, which made it more difficult to investigate.
At present, the Ghost Parade could only investigate the missing guests whose identities were known. They hoped to make a breakthrough.
On the Sword Pavilion's side, Chu Meixin's disappearance had also attracted the attention of the Sword Pavilion. They had sent a large number of disciples to search for her, and they suspected that her disappearance might have something to do with the people who attacked the auction.
Apart from that, the following auction would continue. The Ghost Parade couldn't give up the auction because of a scoundrel who didn't dare show his face. That would make them the laughingstock of the world and cause the Great Sages to be displeased.
Everything was just as Gu Chen had guessed. Gu Chen had bribed Ji Yang to arrange for him to enter Madam Du's private room on the last day of the auction.
Ji Yang didn't doubt this request. On the last day of the auction, Madam Du would definitely appear in the Heavenly Hall. At that time, only the most distinguished guests would be able to enter the private room with her.
The five Great Sages who had participated in the auction today were among those invited.
From his point of view, Zhao Qiu's attempt to get close to Madam Du was fake. He just wanted to use this opportunity to get to know more important people.
He wasn't the only one who had such thoughts. He had accepted the bribe and agreed to give it a try, but whether or not he would succeed would depend on his luck.
"Everything is ready. All that's left is the key."
Gu Chen looked up at the night sky and muttered to himself, having grasped as much as he could.
What was about to happen would probably shake the entire Second Mountain and Sea of the Dao World.
