Chapter 802
The King of Weapons, Jiang Baiming, was a legend of the Kunlun Continent eight hundred years ago.
At the age of five, he could forge weapons. At the age of eleven, he was already a grandmaster blacksmith. At the age of thirty, he was already the number one blacksmith in the Central Plains Empire. He was known as the number one blacksmith genius in the history of the Kunlun Continent!
His level of blacksmithing far surpassed the era he lived in. Any weapon he forged would be fought over by various factions.
Unfortunately, such a talented person had died of illness at the age of thirty-one, which caused the entire continent to mourn.
Eight hundred years after his death, the phrase "The one who obtains the King of Weapons' Armory shall obtain the world" had once caused a commotion …
Gu Chen recalled Jiang Baiming's legendary life. This was a senior expert whom he had never met, but he deeply respected.
His King of Weapons' Armory had once helped him greatly. His belief that one must have a benevolent and righteous heart made him deeply admire him.
However, was this youth before him, who was holding the black dog's hand and had a smiling face as if he had been indulging in debauchery for a long time, really the King of Weapons, Jiang Baiming?
Gu Chen did not believe that he would coincidentally meet two people who looked exactly the same and had the same surname. There must be some relationship between them.
Especially Tang Ning, who was extremely shrewd. When he thought of his smiling face before he left, Gu Chen was even more certain that the other party had ulterior motives!
"Originally, I had always thought that Jiang Baiming was already dead. However, according to the scenes I saw in the river of time, perhaps Jiang Baiming did not die of illness and instead survived. If he was still alive eight hundred years ago, with his talent, it would not be strange for him to live until today. "
As Gu Chen scrutinized Jiang Xuan, he recalled a secret history he had learned from the Thousand Refinements Sacred Clan.
It was said that the original Jiang Baiming was also a playboy. Nalan Su of the Northern Plains took advantage of this weakness and offered his sister to the King of Weapons in exchange for benefits …
Gu Chen analyzed the information about the King of Weapons in his memory and felt that there were many similarities between him and this Jiang Xuan.
"If the King of Weapons didn't die eight hundred years ago and entered the starry sky, it would be reasonable for him to cultivate in the Divine Abode at eight hundred years of age."
Gu Chen knew that some races could easily live for hundreds of thousands of years, so a mere eight hundred years for the human race was nothing.
Jiang Xuan treated the black dog very warmly, inviting her into the banquet. However, he seemed to neglect Gu Chen a lot.
Gu Chen did not get angry. He casually found a seat and sat down, observing his every word and action.
Jiang Xuan's actions were simply absurd. There were so many factions waiting for him outside, yet he was indulging in pleasure every night.
For him to behave like this, either he was born to be frivolous and unruly, or there was another reason!
"Daoist Jiang, where is your hometown?"
Gu Chen said with a smile. He decided to test whether this person was Jiang Baiming or not.
"Ha? People who come to my place always give gifts and promises. Why is it that when it comes to you, Fellow Daoist, you're asking about my past? "
Jiang Xuan laughed and kept trying to persuade the black dog to drink.
The black dog, who had transformed into a beautiful woman, tried all sorts of excuses and refused to let him have his way.
"It's nothing. I just feel that Daoist Jiang looks a little similar to someone I know, so I'm just asking out of curiosity."
Gu Chen smiled.
"Oh? There's someone in this world who looks as handsome and elegant as me? "
Jiang Xuan said disapprovingly. His face was flushed as if he was a little drunk.
"Coincidentally, my friend's surname is also Jiang. His name is Jiang Baiming." Gu Chen went straight to the point.
When Jiang Xuan heard this, the wine glass he was holding suddenly paused, and his eyes seemed to sober up a little.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed. Jiang Xuan looked at Gu Chen seriously.
"What's this kid doing?"
Black Dog was sitting next to Jiang Xuan, wondering when Gu Chen would kill this disgusting fellow who had molested her. Little did he expect that Gu Chen would start chatting with him. What's more, he was speaking in a language that she could not understand!
"All of you can leave first."
Jiang Xuan suddenly said to the beauties present. The beauties were shocked, but they did not dare to object. One by one, they got up and left the floor.
They were just toys given to Jiang Xuan by the major forces. What right did they have to refuse?
When the beauties had left, leaving only Gu Chen and the black dog. Jiang Xuan raised his right hand, and the ring on his middle finger emitted a layer of light that enveloped the three of them.
As soon as the light appeared, the sound outside was completely isolated.
"Who are you? Why do you know my real name? What's your purpose in coming here? "
Jiang Xuan asked solemnly. At this moment, he was not drunk at all. His previous unrestrained manner seemed to have been an act.
Gu Chen saw that the other party had admitted his identity and sighed.
It really was Jiang Baiming!
He did not expect to meet the other party in this way in this vast universe!
Gu Chen's mission was to assassinate Jiang Xuan, but now he knew that it was impossible for him to attack Jiang Xuan, who was also Jiang Baiming.
Jiang Baiming had once done him a great favor, and Jiang Xuan had obtained the King of Weapons Armory due to Jiang Baiming's kindness. Therefore, he had always been successful in the war against Huangfu Wuji. With his personality, how could he repay kindness with enmity?
Moreover, he had now confirmed that Tang Ning's real purpose was not to kill Jiang Baiming. With his shrewdness, he had probably guessed Jiang Xuan's real identity long ago!
The assassination was fake, but Gu Chen was not very sure what Tang Ning's deeper purpose was.
"Senior Jiang, although you and I don't know each other, we have a rather deep relationship."
Gu Chen sighed. With a flip of his hand, he took out a simple and unadorned small black cauldron.
When Jiang Baiming saw this cauldron, his eyes revealed great surprise. "You're from my hometown?"
Gu Chen did not deny it. Instead, he asked, "Not only did I come from the same Cang Huang Ancient Star as Senior, but I also inherited the King of Weapons Armory that you left behind. Your Trial of the Heart left a deep impression on me. "
Jiang Baiming was stunned when he heard this, and then he burst into laughter.
"You inherited my Armory? If that's the case, we're fated. Why are you here? "
The way he looked at Gu Chen became much gentler. He had left the King of Weapons Armory in Baijing Mansion, and the person who could finally obtain it must be someone who satisfied him in all aspects. Therefore, he inexplicably trusted Gu Chen!
"Wait, you two know each other?"
The black dog listened to their conversation from the side, and could not help but widen its eyes.
"This lady is also from my hometown?" The way Jiang Baiming looked at the black dog became even more gentle.
"Excuse me! Since we know each other, I won't pretend anymore. If I keep pretending, I'll puke! "
The black dog said angrily, and revealed its original voice.
"This, you're not a woman?" Jiang Baiming's expression suddenly froze.
Gu Chen recalled what Jiang Baiming had done to the black dog just now, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Wow. Blargh. "
