Chapter 340

"Sect Master, you're finally back!"

He was extremely excited. Gu Chen had not returned for more than half a year. If he did not know that he had become a Daoist Candidate of the Celestial Court, he would have thought that something bad had happened to him.

Now that the Sect Master had returned, he was extremely excited. He could not wait to gather the entire sect and tell them about this great news!

"Why aren't the two Deputy Sect Masters in the mountain? Where are Zhao Rou and the other women? "

Gu Chen asked straightforwardly.

Xue Qian's joyful expression quickly faded when he heard Gu Chen mention this.

"Sect Master, the two Deputy Sect Masters and the seven Saintesses have gone to the Thunder Ray Sect to participate in the Whale Alliance Conference."

"Whale Alliance Conference? It's been less than a year since the last Whale Alliance Conference. Why is it being held again? Even if it's a conference, there's no need for so many people to go, right? "

"Could it be that Chou Feiyang is stirring up trouble?"

Gu Chen's eyes turned cold.

He must have been under great pressure to send nine of his subordinates to participate in the Whale Alliance Conference.

"No, no, no. Ever since Sect Master became a Daoist Candidate of the Celestial Court, Alliance Master Chou has been giving us preferential treatment. Especially recently, for some reason, he has been even more attentive. He has been sending gifts to Mount Yunwu from time to time, making us feel embarrassed. "

Xue Qian hurriedly explained.

"Oh? If that's the case, what's the reason for this Whale Alliance Conference? "

Xue Qian's expression turned serious. "Since Sect Master has just returned, I'm afraid you don't know that quite a few well-known figures have come to Baijing Mansion these days. Some are ancient clans that have been living in seclusion for many years in the Eastern Wastelands, some are powerful demonic clans in the Southern Mountains, and even people from extremely cold places like the Northern Plains have come from far away."

Gu Chen recalled the information from the Celestial Court. "So many people have suddenly come to my Baijing Mansion. What's going on?"

"Sect Master, have you heard the rumor about the Armament King?"

Xue Qian asked.

Gu Chen nodded with surprise in his eyes. "Could it be related to the rumor about the Armament King?"

"That's right. Since about a month ago, the rumor that the Armory of the King of Weapons is about to appear has been spreading in Baijing Prefecture."

"Eight hundred years ago, the peerless King of Weapons, Jiang Baiming, passed away due to illness. He left behind ninety-nine small cauldrons as a guide to the armory of the King of Weapons he left behind."

"It is rumored that the one who obtains the weapon king's armory will obtain the world. For the past 355 years, countless people have chased after this legend."

"And now, the possessors of the ninety-nine small cauldrons have been summoned to my Baijing Mansion. I heard that the entrance to the Armament Armory is in my Baijing Mansion!"

The news Xue Qian spoke of could be said to be earth-shattering. If news of this matter were to spread out, then even the great powers of the central plains would be shocked by it and rush over like a flock of ducks.

"This information should be extremely secretive. How did my Heavenly Star Sect know about it?"

Gu Chen was greatly surprised.

"About half a month ago, Vice Sect Master Huang and the others killed a group of foreign bandits and found a small cauldron and a few letters on them. Only then did they find out about this matter."

"After that, more and more cultivators came to Baijing Mansion, and the news spread like wildfire. Now, all 81 sects of the Whale Alliance know about it."

"However, this matter is of great importance, so the Whale Alliance has sealed it off from the public."

Xue Qian said.

"It seems like the reason for the Whale Alliance Conference to be held in a hurry is for the Armament Armory."

Gu Chen understood everything.

"That's right. The two Vice Sect Masters and the Seven Saintesses felt that the opportunity to obtain the Armament Armory was extremely rare, so they wanted to bring it to you, Sect Master. That's why all of them came."

Gu Chen shook his head. Although he did not know how strong the forces that came to Baijing Mansion were, the Heavenly Star Sect had only been established for a short period of time. The cultivation of the nine people was not enough, so they might not be able to do it.

Wait!

Gu Chen's pupils suddenly shrank. He thought of Huangfu De who came to Baijing Mansion!

Huangfu De came here sneakily, and his whereabouts were unknown. Could it be that he was also after the Armament Armory?

If the Armament Armory was really as rumored, and one could conquer the world with it, then the Huangfu Family's motive was obvious!

Gu Chen shuddered. The Armament Armory must not fall into the Huangfu Family's hands no matter what!

"Sect Master, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale?"

Xue Qian asked with concern when he saw Gu Chen's abnormal expression.

"It's nothing. How long has the Whale Alliance Conference been held? If I go now, will I be able to make it?"

Gu Chen asked.

"The conference is tomorrow. The Vice Sect Masters have gone there earlier. If Sect Master goes there now, you might still be able to make it."

Xue Qian pondered.

"Understood."

Gu Chen replied and disappeared from the house in the next moment!

Xue Qian was dumbfounded. This Sect Master came and left so quickly.

"All of them want me to stay here and guard the sect. Sigh!"

Xue Qian sighed heavily. He was like a butler in the Heavenly Star Sect.

Just as Gu Chen was heading to the Thunder Ray Sect, in a courtyard of the Thunder Ray Sect!

Wei Chizhong, Zhao Rou, Xiao Que, Ji Hongying and the rest gathered together and looked at Huang Pingzhang who was sitting in front of them.

Huang Pingzhang took off his eyepatch, revealing a strange blue eye that was emitting a cold luster. He did not say a word as if his soul had left his body.

Everyone waited patiently. After a long time, Huang Pingzhang came back to his senses and the luster in his blue eyes gradually disappeared.

"How is it? What did you see with your Thousand Miles Divine Eyes? "

Wei Chizhong asked immediately.

Huang Pingzhang's expression turned serious. "I'm afraid there will be many changes in the Whale Alliance Conference tomorrow morning."

"What do you mean?" Everyone's expression turned solemn.

"Many of the Sect Masters of the 81 Whale Alliance Sects have brought outsiders with them. You all know that many sects in the Whale Alliance have external forces supporting them from behind. This time, it seems like all the forces behind them are here. "

"Apart from these forces, some of the weaker sects have invited unknown cultivators from somewhere. I'm afraid these people are all here for the King Weapon Armory."

"The Old Man used his Thousand Miles Divine Eyes to spy and found that many of them have unfathomable cultivation base. I'm afraid that even Chou Feiyang won't be able to control the situation."

Huang Pingzhang's words made everyone look at each other and their hearts sank.

Originally, they were all here to seize the King Weapon Armory for the Heavenly Star Sect.

In the past half a year, they had been cultivating hard. In addition to the Polar Organs, their strength had improved a lot.

They were confident that they could deal with any of the 81 Whale Alliance Sects. Even if many sects joined forces, they would not be afraid. However, if external forces were to intervene, it would be a different story!

"No matter what, the King Weapon Armory is of great importance. With the small cauldron in our hands, we have a bargaining chip. We don't need to be afraid of anyone. The King Weapon Armory will be of great use to the Sect Master. We have to try our best to seize it! "

Determination flashed across Zhao Rou's eyes. Although her name was gentle, she was valiant and heroic at this moment.

The other six women nodded with determination in their eyes.
