Chapter 901
"Heavenly General Gu, are you going to the Sea of Flowers for the matter of the Pure Spirit Kingdom mentioned by Heavenly General Li?"
Yuan Buhuo asked curiously as they traveled through the Celestial Gate.
"That's right. Since there is a clue, and I happen to be the most idle one among the Heavenly Generals, I will go there to have a look," Gu Chen answered honestly.
"The Pure Spirit Kingdom is a mysterious force, and the Jingling Taoist is very dangerous. Heavenly General Gu, you must be careful when you go there to investigate," Yuan Buhuo reminded him out of concern.
"I'll be careful." Gu Chen nodded and said casually. "I wonder why Heavenly General Yuan is going to the Sea of Flowers for?"
"Ling Long Celestial Palace and the Fallen Flowers Divine Sect have had many conflicts recently in the Sea of Flowers. Heavenly General Gu, you must know about it."
Yuan Buhuo explained with a smile, "The Ling Long Celestial Palace is the Doctrine Orthodoxy left by the Immortal Emperor Ling Long. They were an important member of the Realm of Immortals in the past. The Old Man is going there to learn more about them."
"Oh?" Gu Chen looked pensive. "So, Heavenly General Yuan, Heavenly General Li, and Heavenly General Tang have the same idea?"
Although Yuan Buhuo was being subtle, it was obvious that he, as the Chief Heavenly General, wanted to contact the Ling Long Celestial Palace to form an alliance with them. This was what the pro-war faction wanted.
Gu Chen remembered clearly that Yuan Buhuo was neutral in the previous meeting.
"Not completely, but it's always good to prepare for a rainy day. As the Chief Heavenly General, the Old Man can perceive the danger of the current situation more keenly. The Celestial Court can't do anything alone. "Yuan Buhuo sighed. Worry flashed in his eyes.
"It's a blessing that the Celestial Court has Heavenly General Yuan," Gu Chen said.
The two of them chatted casually. As they spoke, they passed through the Immortal Gate and arrived at the Flower Sea Plain.
The Celestial Door of the Celestial Court was hidden on an abandoned dead star. Gu Chen and Yuan Buhuo flew out of the dead star and saw that the starry sky in front of them was filled with brilliant rays of light, like a sea of blooming flowers.
"The scenery of this Sea of Flowers Plain is unique among the major star regions. It is beautiful beyond compare. General Gu will have a good time on his way to Lustrous Jade Star," said Yuan Buhuo with a smile.
"This scenery is indeed beautiful." Gu Chen marveled at the sea of flowers in front of him.
Most of the star regions were empty and desolate, but the Sea of Flowers Plains was extremely beautiful. It was unknown how those flower-like auroras appeared, but it made one sigh in admiration at the infinite charm of the creator.
"The Old Man will part ways with Heavenly General Gu here. Take care of yourself," Yuan Buhuo's destination was Ling Long Celestial Palace, and his destination was different from Gu Chen's.
"Take care." Gu Chen nodded and watched Yuan Buhuo fly into the sky and leave.
When his body disappeared in the starry sky completely, an odd light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes, and he muttered to himself. "It's weird. Is it not this person?"
As he pondered this, he found the path leading to Lustrous Jade Star and flew there unhurriedly.
"Does the Lustrous Jade Star really have clues about the members of the Pure Spirit Kingdom?"
Gu Chen expressed his doubts.
In the Ape Planet, Ying Zun, a member of the Pure Spirit Kingdom, came to him. Since then, a seed of doubt was planted in Gu Chen's heart.
He suspected that there were spies from the Pure Spirit Kingdom in the Celestial Court, and that was why they knew his whereabouts.
Li Shunyu was once captured by the members of the Pure Spirit Kingdom, and he was almost sent to the Desolate God Main Planet as a hostage. It was unimaginable given his status in the Celestial Court.
He didn't disclose this matter afterward. At first, Gu Chen thought he just wanted to save face. But after talking with him and Tang Ning in the Heavenly Sound Pavilion, he found something fishy.
He gave him a clue about the Pure Spirit Kingdom of his own accord, and asked him to look for it. But he told him this clue in front of many people in the Heavenly Sound Pavilion.
If Li Shunyu really wanted to save face, so he didn't disclose the matter about the Pure Spirit Kingdom, he wouldn't have told him this matter in front of so many people in the Heavenly Sound Pavilion.
Gu Chen detected sharply that he and Tang Ning were cooperating. It seemed he wanted people to know he had information about the Pure Spirit Kingdom, and he gave it to him.
Why did he do that?
He probably felt the same way as him, that there was a spy in the Celestial Court!
Thinking back to the fact that he didn't want him to disclose his kidnapping, Gu Chen understood.
Li Shunyu didn't want him to disclose it not because he wanted to save face, but because he didn't want to alert the enemy and alert the spy of the Pure Spirit Kingdom in the Celestial Court.
The reason he was captured must have something to do with the spy, and this time, he wanted to use him to lure the snake out of its hole!
"Using me as bait to lure the spy out? Why does this smell of conspiracy feel like Tang Ning's doing? "
Gu Chen's eyes flickered, and he gritted his teeth in hatred.
Perhaps he had been tricked by Tang Ning too many times, and this time he noticed it in advance.
Although he didn't know what the two of them planned to do, since they wanted to lure the spy out, he would cooperate and put on a good show.
If he could catch the spy, it would be a good thing for his investigation of the Pure Spirit Kingdom.
"That Yuan Buhuo happened to be traveling with me. I thought he was the spy, but it seems like he isn't."
Along the way, Gu Chen had been suspicious of Yuan Buhuo. After all, the timing of his appearance was very sensitive.
Li Shunyu had let out the news, and regardless of whether the clue of the Lustrous Jade Planet was real or fake, the spy should be concerned.
Moreover, he was the person that the Man with a Bamboo Hat wanted, so the possibility of the spy following him was even higher.
Under such circumstances, Yuan Buhuo's appearance naturally made Gu Chen very concerned.
However, the reason why the other party came to the Sea of Flowers Plains was reasonable, and he had left. This made Gu Chen's suspicion of him disappear by half.
Slowly flying to the Lustrous Jade Planet, Gu Chen hoped that the spy would show his face.
Half a day later, the surroundings were quiet, and nothing out of the ordinary appeared. Gu Chen's eyes showed disappointment.
"It seems that the plan has failed. That's right. If I were the spy, I wouldn't show myself so easily."
In his opinion, there were some flaws in Tang Ning and Li Shunyu's plan. If there really was a spy from the Pure Spirit Kingdom who had infiltrated the Celestial Court, he would definitely be a cautious person and not expose himself so easily.
As Gu Chen thought about this, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
In the starry sky in front of him, a person had appeared out of nowhere and blocked his way!
The newcomer had a middle-aged face and looked tall and burly. Unfortunately, he was blind, and only the whites of his eyes were visible, making him look somewhat frightening.
"Hai Tian Jiang, what a coincidence to see you here." Gu Chen looked at the other party and smiled mockingly.
The person who had come was the Heavenly Jiang Hai Dongqing, whom he had won the Demon Blade Yan Ling in the Heavenly Music Parlor.
Clearly, the other party's appearance here was not a coincidence. He had followed him all the way to the Sea of Flowers Plains!
"Is that you? Spy … "Gu Chen muttered to himself as he sized up the blind man in front of him.
This person gave him a feeling that he was unfathomable. It was said that his strength was definitely above average among the Heavenly Jiang.
"Frined Gu, the Demon Blade Yan Ling is not ordinary. I hope you can return it to me."
Hai Dongqing said solemnly, his expression serious.
"You followed me all the way here for that saber? Don't you understand the principle of conceding defeat? Won't it be too embarrassing to ask for it now? "
