Chapter 428

East Barren was located on the east side of Kunlun Continent, and on its easternmost side, there was a boundless blue ocean.

Since ancient times, countless people had tried to cross the ocean, wanting to know what kind of world it was outside of Kunlun Continent.

However, the ocean seemed to be boundless, those who went out to sea either returned empty-handed after spending countless years or never returned, buried in the ocean.

Over time, this ocean became known as the Boundless Ocean, shrouded in a mysterious veil.

Today, a majestic Sky Patrol Warship pierced through the sky, heading towards the border between the continent and the blue ocean.

On the bow of the warship, Gu Chen wore the Celestial Court's Daoist robe, his black hair fluttering in the wind as he stared at the vast horizon.

Behind him, Ghost King, Lu Yichen and the others also wore the Celestial Court's assassin robes, their expressions solemn.

Not long after, when the warship was about to reach its destination, two rainbows pierced through the sky.

"Boss, you're finally here!"

Cao Xuanbin took the lead, landing on the bow of the warship and said excitedly.

Killing God Rose followed behind him, landing in front of Gu Chen.

"You're late by many days," Killing God Rose said unhappily.

"It was a long journey, it took us a lot of time," Gu Chen replied.

They had been delayed in North Plains for some time, and the distance from North Plains to East Barren Linhai Prefecture was extremely far, to be able to arrive today was already the result of rushing at full speed.

"Is it done?" Killing God Rose's eyes showed a look of anticipation.

"It's done," Gu Chen replied calmly, as if it was something insignificant.

"You've dealt with the four foreign tribes?" Killing God Rosette asked again, as if in disbelief.

Gu Chen nodded.

"Good lad, impressive!"

She couldn't help but exclaim, then turned to look at the others. "You've all worked hard."

"Since you brought such news, even if you're late by a few days, those guys have nothing to say," she said excitedly.

Her gaze suddenly shifted to a corner of the warship, her expression becoming cautious. "Who is this fellow Daoist?"

She noticed Nangong Zheng, who was standing in the corner. He had white hair, but he gave off an extremely dangerous feeling.

She could be sure that the other party had definitely reached the Heaven Tier, and his strength was unfathomable!

"He's one of us."

Gu Chen gave a simple explanation, and Killer Rose breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's talk about the situation of the former members of the Celestial Court. Senior, you're the only one who came to pick me up. It seems like the others don't like me."

Gu Chen changed the topic to business and said with a smile.

Killing God Rosette shook her head. "Many of them were already dissatisfied with you. Now that you've arrived so many days late, it's only natural that they don't like you."

The Sky Patrol Warship flew toward the Linhai Prefecture branch, while the Rose Killing God briefed Gu Chen on the situation of the old departments of the Celestial Court who were participating in this meeting.

"Although we've been searching for the former members of the Celestial Court for the past few months, we haven't been able to contact many of them due to the lack of Skynet and the mysterious identities of many killers."

"This time, I'm not included. Four Gods of Slaughter and two Daoists have come. Over the past few days, the situation has become rather delicate."

"Only four Death Gods? It's a little little. "

Gu Chen frowned. As far as he knew, there were more than ten Death Gods in the Celestial Court, but only less than half of them had arrived.

It seemed that the disappearance of the Heavenly Palace and the interruption of the Nets Above Snares Below had indeed dealt a huge blow to the Celestial Court. Most of the members had lost contact with each other.

"You think it's too little? If they're all gathered, I'm afraid the resistance you'll face will be even greater. "

Killing God Rose shook her head and explained. "The Celestial Court has recorded a total of fifteen Death Gods, but no more than ten of them are active. Some of the Death Gods joined the Celestial Court because they received the favor of the old Celestial Emperor. They don't show their faces at all, even I have never seen them. "

"It's the most difficult to contact these people. Without Skynet, there's no way to start."

Gu Chen pondered deeply. "If Skynet can be restored and we can contact these Death Gods, will they be willing to fight against Huangfu Wuji?"

Killing God Rosette nodded. "These people have been friends with the Celestial Emperor for a long time, and they're all thousand-year-old monsters. I'm afraid their lifespans are almost up, so they won't be stingy with their lives."

Hearing this, Gu Chen made a judgment in his heart. "Alright then, let's talk about the others who are participating in this meeting. You said that the situation has been delicate during my absence. What's going on?"

Killing God Rose sighed. Cao Xuanbin, who was beside her, immediately spoke up indignantly. "Boss, you don't know, but the Celestial Court is now divided into two factions. One side wants to fight, while the other side wants to retreat overseas and preserve the legacy of the Celestial Court."

"Overseas? Where can they retreat to? "Gu Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Killing God Vermillion Bird has an island about a thousand miles out of the sea. She said that the cultivators of the Celestial Court can be transferred there. She said that overseas is actually rich in resources, and that it's a suitable place to rest and build up strength. We can retreat there and rebuild. When the time comes in the future, there might be a possibility of rebuilding the Celestial Court. "

"Killing God Curled Sickle agrees with her idea. Many other assassins of the Celestial Court also expressed their agreement."

Gu Chen remained silent. He couldn't judge whether this kind of reclusive mentality was right or wrong. Perhaps the two Killing Gods really wanted to preserve the remaining combat power of the Celestial Court and leave behind their legacy.

However, the Celestial Palace was gone, so what legacy could be left behind?

"According to what you said, the other two Killing Gods and Daozi are all in favor of fighting?" Gu Chen asked again.

Fatty hurriedly nodded his head. Killer God Rosette took over from his words. "It's not as simple as Fatty thinks. The situation is very complicated."

"Killing God Illusion and Daozi Xun Xi are actually neutral. These days, no matter who tried to rope them in, they remained silent. Killing God Thousand Hands, on the other hand, is clearly standing behind Daozi Zong Ziyu. They are in favor of fighting just like us, but there's a condition."

Killing God Rose paused.

"What condition?"

"Zong Ziyu hopes that the rebuilt Celestial Court will be led by him. In other words, he wants to become the second Celestial Emperor." Killing God Rose sneered.

"He's that confident that the other Killing Gods will agree to this condition?"

Gu Chen asked curiously.

Daozi was the heir of the Celestial Emperor. Although this rule was correct, now that the Celestial Emperor was dead, the powerful Killing Gods might not be too happy about this.

"Zong Ziyu broke through to the Celestial Realm a few months ago, and widened the gap between you and the other Daozi. This is where his confidence lies."

Killing God Rosette reminded solemnly.

When Gu Chen heard that, a strange look appeared in his eyes. His companions behind him also smiled.

This Linhai Prefecture was too remote. The old subordinates of the Celestial Court had gathered here for many days, but it seemed that they still didn't know that Gu Chen had broken through to Saint.
