Chapter 90

Gu Chen's face showed that he was tempted. The person who traded with Huang Pingzhang was very generous. It was important to know that he still had a whole bag of Nine Yin Stones, which would definitely bring him a lot of profit.

However, his Nine Yin Stone came from the Ghastly Ruins. That place was basically a place where one could only enter but not leave. However, he managed to come out alive. Could it be that the senior had discovered something fishy about this matter?

"Then when do you want it, Senior?" He muttered.

"He didn't set a time limit. In fact, he has already announced this acquisition mission for half a year," Huang Pingzhang said.

"Since that's the case, there's no rush."

Gu Chen made up his mind. He would wait for a while before considering whether or not to trade with the other party. If he left the other party hanging first, he might be able to reap greater benefits.

After the two of them had settled their matters, they left the Merit Square and went to the intelligence pool. They planned to leave the Celestial Court's mystic realm.

He never expected that when he walked out of the intelligence pool, he would run head-on into Shi Cong and Nineorigin who introduced him.

When enemies met, it was only natural that their eyes would burn with hatred.

"Yo, Daoist Huang, your friend's luck is pretty good. He actually passed the test."

Nineorigin mocked and ridiculed.

As soon as Huang Pingzhang saw him, it was as if he had seen a disgusting fly. His good mood was half gone, and his expression became gloomy. He didn't want to bother with him.

But Gu Chen found it funny when he heard this. Seeing Nineorigin's expression was somewhat unnatural when he spoke, he immediately understood.

As it turned out, this Shi Cong did not tell Nineorigin how he passed the test.

Gu Chen did not have a good impression of these two, so why would he be polite at this moment?

"No matter how lucky I am, I still can't compare to Fellow Daoist Shi. You've clearly failed miserably, yet you still relied on nepotism to pass the test."

He said calmly.

"Chen, what nonsense are you talking about?!"

When Shi Cong heard this, he was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. His face turned red, and his tone became agitated.

Because the things he experienced in the test were seriously too humiliating, he did not tell Nineorigin in detail and only said that he passed. He did not expect that Gu Chen exposed his shortcomings to his face!

"I'm spouting nonsense? I'm not the only one who knows that Qian Jue Granny helped you pass the test by selling your body. "

Gu Chen imitated Xu Huahua's tone and said sinisterly.

This time, Shi Cong's entire face turned ashen, and she was so angry that her lips trembled. "You … you're talking nonsense!"

His reaction landed in the eyes of Nineorigin and Huang Pingzhang, it was clearly the performance of a guilty conscience.

"Fellow Cultivator Chen, tell me, what happened?" Huang Pingzhang asked gloatingly.

Normally, when he ran into Nineorigin, he could not fool him with his mouth and always made him have a bellyful of anger. It was hard to come by a chance to make him lose face today.

"It's like this."

Gu Chen didn't care about how ugly Shi Cong's expression was and directly told her the whole story.

When Huang Pingzhang heard that Shi Cong's underwear was almost stripped bare before she passed the test, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

When that Nineorigin heard, he could not help covering his face, feeling that his face was almost thrown to his grandma's house.

He had noticed Shi Cong's abnormality when the two of them met. Now that Gu Chen said this, he immediately confirmed that it was true.

The person he had recommended had actually joined the Celestial Court in such a manner. Even he felt ashamed!

"He's talking nonsense! Nonsense! I passed the test based on my own ability! "

Shi Cong was incomparably anxious. If this matter were to spread out, how would he mingle in the future?

"Still refuse to admit it? I have evidence. "

Gu Chen had the heart to teach this guy a lesson. With a flip of his hand, he took out that purple longbow.

Seeing his beloved treasure bow, Shi Cong's eyes turned red and was no longer able to refute. Nineorigin sighed inwardly.

The matter was indeed true. His most beloved bow landed in other people's hands. This Shi Cong really lost face for him!

"Return the bow to me, surnamed Chen! Otherwise, I'll make you pay!"

Shi Cong had a savage look.

"Why? Still want to fight here?"

Huang Pingzhang said with a cold smile. Fighting was not allowed inside the Celestial Court mystic realm. Anyone who violated the rules would be punished by the Celestial Court.

Shi Cong's expression could not help flickering incessantly. Even if he had ten galls, he also would not dare to fight here!

"The bow is my spoils of war. It's impossible to return it to you. Give me that arrow too. If you give it, I won't fuss over the matter previously with you. "

Gu Chen said coolly.

"In your dreams!" Shi Cong was almost furious. It was already pretty good that he did not find the other party to settle scores. The other party actually still dared to threaten him.

He suddenly thought of something and said with a cold smile, "Surnamed Chen, don't get cocky too early. You offended Thousand Jue Granny. You might lose your little life the moment you step out of the Heavenly Gate. What are you being cocky for? "

"Even if you escape this calamity for the time being, with Thousand Jue Granny's viciousness, she won't let you off in the future either. You're already a dead man!"

As he said, the more he thought, the happier he got. It was as if he redeemed his face.

"If she wants to come, then come. Why would I be afraid of her?"

Gu Chen replied calmly.

"Humph, keep pretending! When you die in her hands, this young master will take back my purple bow from her at a high price! "

He finished talking and flicked his sleeves and left, not wishing to continue arguing about his shameful matter here.

After he and Nineorigin both left, Huang Pingzhang's expression became solemn. "Fellow Daoist Chen, what did he say just now?"

Hence, Gu Chen recounted the matter of how he offended Thousand Jue Granny.

"This is simply an undeserved calamity. Could it be that you can't get first place in the examination?"

Huang Pingzhang was filled with righteous indignation when he heard, but his brows furrowed tightly very soon. "But this Thousand Jue Granny, the Old Man has also heard of her. She's a famous ruthless person in Baijing Manor. She's always haggling over the smallest details. Offending her is indeed very dangerous."

Gu Chen sighed, also feeling a headache. "Right now, she might be waiting for me outside the Heavenly Gate. The senior in charge of the examination suggested that I leave through another Heavenly Gate."

"Maybe she guessed that you would do this and blocked the other Heavenly Gate. What should I do?" Huang Pingzhang pondered deeply.

"If that's the case, I'll fight it out with her."

Gu Chen's gaze turned cold. Although the other party was strong, he was not a weakling either.

"The Celestial Court doesn't wish for the assassins under their banner to kill each other. If we report this situation to the higher-ups, they should be able to help you mediate."

Huang Pingzhang suggested.

"They can help me once, but they can't help me a second or third time. This matter can only be solved by me and her. "

Gu Chen shook his head. The Celestial Court was not a sect that cared about kindness. It was an assassin organization that followed the law of the jungle. If he asked for help from the higher-ups, he would be looked down upon.

"If that's the case, Brother Chen, why don't you stay in the Arcane Land for a while?"

Huang Pingzhang's eyes lit up.

"Stay here?" Gu Chen was startled. He had never thought about it.

"That's right. Brother Chen, you're about to reach the late-stage of Divine Power, right? There's a secret chamber in the Falling Firmament Tower for cultivation. It's full of Essence Qi, which is quite suitable for cultivation. "

"If you cultivate here for a while, do you think Thousand Jue Granny will wait for you outside?"
