Chapter 470

Gu Chen was a little angry. In his opinion, Ye Qingshuang and Yang Zhen were too impulsive.

If he had arrived a little later today, Ye Qingshuang would definitely have lost her life.

Hearing Gu Chen's rebuke, Ye Qingshuang only pursed her lips. "It's my fault."

"No, it's not Qingshuang's fault."

Yang Zhen was already filled with guilt when she escaped. How could she let her shoulder the blame now? She hurriedly explained.

"It's like this. Madam Gu and the rest have been gone for too long. We were worried that things might change. A few days ago, Huangfu Wuji came to the Underworld God Pagoda again."

Yang Zhen's words made Gu Chen and Jiang Buzhuo's expressions change. "Huangfu Wuji came here?"

"Yes. Although we were very far away, we can be sure that it was him. He brought an old man into the pagoda. His actions were very strange, and we were very concerned. "

"Because Madam Gu has been gone for too long, we were worried that she would delay the opportunity to rescue the leaders of the various forces. So, I suggested that we try entering the pagoda."

Yang Zhen gritted her teeth and took responsibility for her impulsive actions.

"It's not like that. I underestimated the danger here and insisted on giving it a try," Ye Qingshuang retorted.

Ye Qingshuang retorted at this time. She didn't want anyone to take the blame for her, especially in front of Gu Chen.

This matter was indeed due to her lack of consideration. Yang Zhen was merely dragged into it.

"Someone else has been imprisoned in the Underworld God Pagoda?"

Gu Chen didn't really want to blame them. After hearing their words, he was more concerned about the new prisoner in the Underworld God Pagoda.

The leaders of the Two Academies, Three Clans, and Four Sacred Grounds should have been imprisoned in the Underworld God Pagoda a long time ago. Who else was worth Huangfu Wuji bringing?

"The situation is not good. If Huangfu Wuji came a few days ago, it means that he is currently in Qingzhou. Since he is in Qingzhou, is he going to the front battlefield? "

Jiang Buzhuo's expression changed as he thought of this possibility.

Hearing this, Gu Chen's heart suddenly tightened!

Huangfu Wuji's combat strength was not inferior to an army. If he was really on the battlefield, it meant that they didn't have much time left!

"Qing Shuang, Yang Zhen, leave the pagoda first. My mother is outside. Meet up with her."

"Master Jiang, we need to break this tower as soon as possible and save all the leaders!"

Gu Chen realized that they were running out of time. After he finished speaking, he rushed to the ninth floor with Jiang Buzhuo without waiting for their consent.

Ye Qingshuang very much wanted to follow them, but her injuries had not completely healed, and her cultivation was still some distance away from the Heaven Tier. She knew that she might be a burden if she followed them, so she could only grit her teeth and follow Gu Chen's instructions, leaving the Underworld God Tower to meet up with Shen Yu Shu.

Gu Chen and Jiang Buzhuo entered the ninth level and advanced at full speed!

However, this Underworld God Pagoda had a total of eighteen levels, and each level's restrictions was more complicated than the one before it. The number of Underworld Demons that appeared also increased, and their strength also increased.

Under such circumstances, if he wanted to completely break through the trial, he would need far more time than he originally estimated!

…

"Daoist Yuchi, is the Overlord not here?"

In the allied army camp, three days had passed since Gu Chen's main body had left. Samsara Unfettered came to his tent and asked Yuchi Zhong, who was guarding the entrance.

"Unfettered, I'm sorry. The Sect Master is cultivating a secret technique and is at a critical juncture. He will not see anyone for the time being."

Yuchi Zhong explained with an apologetic look.

Samsara Unfettered's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he said earnestly. "Since the Overlord is at a critical juncture in his cultivation, I naturally do not dare to disturb him. However, Daoist Yuchi, please inform the Overlord that the World-Crippling Array has been activated and is operating very smoothly. The Overlord has already agreed to carry out the transplant, and this matter should not be delayed. "

Yuchi Zhong nodded when he heard this. "The Old Man understands. Don't worry, Unfettered. Once the Sect Master is free, the Old Man will immediately inform him of this matter."

Samsara Unfettered nodded when he received this promise. He glanced at the tent again, then turned and left.

…

In the Netherheaven Legion's camp, the mood of the soldiers was somewhat depressed and pessimistic these days.

Ever since the Man with a Bamboo Hat's Octopus attack was broken, the legion suffered heavy losses. Moreover, the Commander seemed to have lost his composure and adopted a defensive posture.

Every day, the Five-Race Alliance would launch an attack on them, and the attacks were fiercer than the previous one. A large number of soldiers couldn't help but feel shaken. Could they still win this war?

That day, the Overlord only needed a punch to make hundreds of giant Octopus monsters turn against him. This matter was too strange. Until now, they still didn't understand what was going on. It only left a huge shadow in their hearts.

Ever since the Overlord became famous, he had created countless miracles. Like an invincible god, rumors spread in the army, saying that the Huangfu family's doomsday was coming and that the Overlord was the true Son of Heaven.

This kind of talk had seriously shaken the morale of the army. The generals of the imperial court caught several people who spread the rumors and beheaded them on the spot, slightly suppressing the unfavorable public opinion.

In the face of this situation, the Man with a Bamboo Hat, as the Commander, stayed in his tent all day and rarely showed himself. This undoubtedly made the situation worse.
