Chapter 635
"What do you mean by just a few people? You're just one person, how dare you say that? I'm just asking, are you going back with us or not? "Mu Mengjia said snappily.
Gu Chen shook his head, "Sorry, I have something to do and I don't know when I'll be leaving. You guys can find someone else."
His refusal was very straightforward, and the youth beside Mu Mengjia immediately said in dissatisfaction. "Mengjia, ignore him. We're just being kind, but he doesn't appreciate it."
Mu Mengjia was also somewhat dissatisfied with Gu Chen's attitude, and her cute face revealed a disdainful expression. "What a hothead. How can a person survive in a place like the Deep Demon Sea alone? How can your elders feel at ease letting you go out alone? "
Gu Chen was speechless. This girl was actually lecturing him.
These guys grew up in the family, and they were the ones who had never ventured out.
"I have something to do, so I'll leave first. I'll give you guys a piece of advice."
Gu Chen shook his head. Thinking that it was fate that they traveled together, he gave them a few words of advice. "Remember, keep a low profile in this Deer Harbor Ancient City. Don't let anyone know that you have a lot of money on you. It's best if you change your brocade robes."
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving behind the dumbfounded boys and girls.
"Ah, he actually has the nerve to say that to us. How can we be as high-profile as him?"
"There are really all kinds of people. Who would spend so much money just to hear rumors about the sinkhole?"
Her companions were indignant, and Mu Mengjia was also unconvinced.
"Of course I can be high-profile, because I'm much stronger than you guys. Take care, everyone …"
Gu Chen walked into the city gate without looking back, and only his voice could be heard from afar.
"Arrogant fella!" Mu Mengjia was so angry that her teeth were itching.
After Gu Chen entered Deer Harbor Ancient City, his divine sense spread out in all directions.
After just a moment, he seemed to have found his target. His eyes revealed a trace of sadness, and he took a step forward.
Sou.
No one noticed that Gu Chen disappeared from the south of the city with a step, and appeared on a burnt street in the west of the city.
Broken walls were everywhere, and there were scorch marks on the ground and the surviving buildings.
This was the place where his father was buried in a sea of fire after a great battle. It was said that the fire spread for several days and nights before it was finally extinguished. One-third of Deer Harbor Ancient City was affected by the sea of fire.
Gu Chen easily found the location of the incident. Thinking about how his father had died here without even a corpse left, his heart became incomparably heavy.
The incident happened more than two years ago, and now there were not many traces left here. It would be even more difficult for Gu Chen to find clues.
He stood silently in the ruins, his figure lonely and desolate.
The white ape slipped out of the animal bag. It could feel the sadness in Gu Chen's heart, so it quietly lay on his shoulder to accompany him.
"It's him, right? Magistrate Zuo is really clever. I didn't expect him to really come here! "
In a tower far away from the ruins, several cultivators looked at Gu Chen from afar with excitement on their faces.
They had been ordered to wait here for three whole months. They had almost given up hope, but their target had finally appeared!
"You guys go and send a message to Magistrate Zuo. The rest of you and I will be responsible for tracking that Demon King. As long as this matter is done well, we will definitely get a huge reward!"
The leader of the few people said happily, and they quickly split up to act.
Coincidentally, in another direction, there were two other people who also noticed Gu Chen entering the ruins!
"The Patriarch was right. Gu Chen knows what happened to his father, and he will definitely go to the place where he died to mourn. We have waited for so long, and he has finally come. "
The two people sighed. There was not much excitement in their eyes when they looked at Gu Chen. Instead, their expressions were extremely complicated.
That was the pride of their Gu Clan. He had defeated nine Heaven's Chosen Ones in a row, and had greatly increased the reputation of their Gu Clan.
Unfortunately, he had taken the wrong path. The new Patriarch wanted him dead, and they could only obey the order.
"Let's inform the clan!" The older person struggled for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said.
Gu Chen stood in the ruins for a long time. His mind was filled with the happy and harmonious scenes of his family of three in the past.
When he put away the sadness in his heart, he walked around the ruins several times, hoping to find some useful clues.
Unfortunately, even if there were any clues here, they had already disappeared in the past two years due to various reasons. He found nothing.
After thinking for a while, Gu Chen walked towards the city, and decided to look for Big Head Mo that Elder Tan had mentioned.
He needed someone to inquire about what happened back then, and it would be best if he could find survivors who had seen his father.
When Gu Chen left the ruins, the two groups of people in different directions were simultaneously shocked. They all began to move, trailing far behind Gu Chen.
There were many cultivators in the ancient city, and with their auras mixed together, they were confident that they would not be discovered by Gu Chen.
However, just as Gu Chen walked two kilometers, his eyes narrowed, and killing intent flashed in the depths of his eyes.
After entering Deer Harbor Ancient City, he had spread out his Divine Sense. He felt that it was normal when he was in the ruins, but now that he moved, he immediately sensed that someone was spying on him.
The spying aura was also there earlier, but because they were motionless and had the same aura as the other cultivators in the city, he was not vigilant.
But now it was too obvious. As soon as he moved, these people moved, and they were clearly following him.
"There are two groups of people. They seem to have known that I would go there and have been waiting for a long time."
Gu Chen muttered in his heart, analyzing the origins of these two groups of people.
In theory, the only people who could have known that he would go there were the Gu Clan.
The Gu Clan member who died in Deer Harbor Ancient City was his father, and Gu Tianming was his father and son. This matter should only be known by the Gu Clan, so it was not surprising that they could deduce that he would come here.
But who were the other group of people? How did they also know that he would come here?
A light flashed in Gu Chen's mind, and he remembered the letter from the Immortal Ascension Grand Gathering. The person who wrote that letter also guessed that he would come here.
"I deduced that the letter should have been left by Zuo Chunqiu, but three months ago, he was injured to such an extent that he almost lost his life, and he still dared to make an enemy of me?"
Gu Chen was puzzled. Three months ago, his arrow had almost destroyed Zuo Chunqiu, and he was very clear about the terror of the black arrow in his right hand. Even if Zuo Chunqiu survived, he was basically crippled.
In this situation, he still wanted to seek revenge, could it be that he was tired of living?
Gu Chen originally did not care about Zuo Chunqiu, but with this situation, he suddenly became very curious about the origin of the group of people.
Gu Chen used his heart to sense, and quickly determined that the side with only two people was a disciple of the Gu Clan.
"Little guy, I'll leave those two people to you. Don't kill them, I have something to ask them."
Gu Chen instructed White Ape.
White Ape blinked his eyes and nodded gloatingly.
"Very well, let's split up."
When Gu Chen finished speaking, his eyes suddenly became fierce, and a burst of aura was released from his body in an instant!
Shua!
He and White Ape disappeared at the same time!
"Where did they go? Where did they go? "
The two groups of people who were following them turned pale with fright at the same time, and used their divine senses to search in all directions.
"Are you looking for me?"
