Chapter 925
When Gu Chen left the cell, he ran into Jiang Baiming who had just come out of the Heavenvoid Hall.
"Little Monkey, here." Jiang Baiming winked at him and secretly tossed a bottle of elixir pills to the white ape.
He had taken it from the side palace after breaking the restriction array formation. According to the rules, all the elixir pills seized from the palaces had to be stored in the treasury of the Celestial Court, but he was the one who broke the restriction, so it was understandable that he took some treasures with him.
Every time he went out to rest, he would steal some gifts for his sworn brother, Gu Chen, and the white ape.
The white ape took the elixir pills and ate them up as if he were eating jelly beans.
Seeing this, Penglai Island Master felt sorry for him since those elixir pills were very expensive.
However, Jiang Baiming's expression didn't change. Instead, he marveled at the white ape's ability to keep his stomach from bursting no matter how much he ate.
"How much progress do we have left?" Gu Chen asked Jiang Baiming.
"It's getting easier and easier. I'll finish it in a few days. If it weren't for the fact that the restrictions here are so interesting, I would've been able to finish them even faster. "
Jiang Baiming answered with a smile. Seeing Gu Chen coming from the direction of the cell, he knew that the latter had gone to interrogate the prisoner again. "How was it? Did you get anything today? "
"Yuan Buhuo talked today, but he didn't say anything valuable." Gu Chen shook his head.
"Don't worry. He can't run away anyway. We'll find out your father's whereabouts sooner or later," Jiang Baiming comforted him.
Gu Chen nodded. After so many years, he wasn't in a hurry.
"Shall we go and have a drink? I found some precious immortal wines in the palace, "Jiang Baiming whispered to Gu Chen and Penglai Island Master.
The two of them were tempted. Then, they left together, enjoying a moment of peace and quiet.
In the distance, Li Shunyu watched as Gu Chen and the other two entered the tent and sighed to Tang Ning beside him. "Gu Chen and Jiang Baiming, one is a martial artist while the other is a scholar. They will be the future pillars of our Heavenly Court. Thank you for finding them."
"The Celestial Court has long needed fresh blood. One is the Overlord Body, and the other is the Unorthodox Saint Body. They will become the cornerstones of the Celestial Court's resurgence. The future belongs to them. "
Tang Ning said with a smile, her eyes filled with anticipation.
"When the Mysterious Fairy arrives and Xu Yuan's matter is completely resolved, the Old Man will convene another meeting in the Heavenly Music Chamber. This time, no matter what, we must unite the Celestial Court." Li Shunyu's eyes were filled with determination.
"What if someone disagrees?" Tang Ning teased.
"Then let's clean up what needs to be cleaned. You're right, the Heavenly Court really needs fresh blood!"
Li Shunyu said. After eliminating the spy, Yuan Buhuo, and taking revenge, he was full of hope for the future of the Celestial Court.
"Hmm? Something's not right. "
As the two were chatting, Tang Ning looked at the starry sky in the distance, feeling inexplicably flustered.
"What's wrong?" Li Shunyu looked at him.
"It's too quiet." Tang Ning's eyes flickered, and his divine sense spread out immediately.
With Xu Yuan as the center, a large part of the starry sky immediately entered his senses.
"Why are there so few Heavenly Soldiers patrolling?" He quickly changed his expression.
In order to ensure that Xu Yuan's existence would not be leaked, they sent Heavenly Soldiers to patrol 79 hours a day. The defense line could be said to be impenetrable.
But now, 45% of the Heavenly Soldiers who were supposed to be patrolling the periphery had disappeared!
They had disappeared without a trace. If not for his inexplicable fluster, he would not have noticed this abnormality!
"What's going on? Call the commanders in charge here! "
Li Shunyu also sensed that something was wrong, and immediately wanted to contact the commanders to clarify the situation.
"There's no need."
At this time, Tang Ning's slightly trembling voice sounded. His eyes stared at the starry sky in the distance, revealing a deep sense of horror.
Li Shunyu was shocked. He had known Tang Ning for so long, and he had always been a calm person. It was rare for him to have such an expression!
He immediately followed his gaze and saw that in the distance, several figures in icy-blue robes had stepped across the starry sky and were slowly approaching Xu Yuan!
Their robes shone with runes, as if they had grown countless pairs of eyes, dazzling and mesmerizing!
Tang Ning's hair stood on end, and he immediately turned to look in another direction!
He saw that in the other directions of Xu Yuan, there was a mysterious cultivator in icy-blue robes slowly walking over. With every step they took, a huge sense of oppression filled the air.
"People from the Pure Spirit Kingdom?"
Li Shunyu's expression changed. He recognized the identity of the Thousand-Eyed Robe, and there were no less than 75 cultivators from the Pure Spirit Kingdom surrounding Xu Yuan!
"We've been tricked!"
Tang Ning's expression turned ugly, and he immediately remembered that Yuan Buhuo had said there were other spies in the Celestial Court.
For some unknown reason, their location had long been exposed to the Pure Spirit Kingdom, and Yuan Buhuo was well aware of this. He was afraid that they would ask for reinforcements from the Celestial Court, so he purposely set up a cloud of suspicion, causing them to choose to exploit Xu Yuan with their limited strength.
As a result, the time they stayed here was extended, and finally, it gave the Pure Spirit Kingdom an opportunity to take advantage of!
"Kill the intruders!"
The Heavenly Army stationed outside saw a group of strange cultivators approaching, and without hesitation, they immediately rushed forward to kill the enemies.
This was an order from Tang Ning and Li Shunyu. Anyone who approached and saw Xu Yuan must be killed!
"Stop now!"
Li Shunyu hurriedly said when he saw this scene, but it was too late.
Thousands of Heavenly Soldiers rushed toward the cultivators from the Pure Spirit Kingdom, but before they could get close, they were instantly strangled by the violent aura emanating from the other party!
Bang, bang, bang!
Clouds of blood mist appeared in the entire starry sky, and many Heavenly Soldiers quickly fell like dumplings!
As for the more than 75 cultivators from the Pure Spirit Kingdom, their footsteps were steady, and they slowly approached Xu Yuan!
Such a huge commotion immediately alarmed Gu Chen and the other two who were drinking. They broke out of the tent and soon saw the enemy.
"More than 75 Celestial Prime experts?" Jiang Baiming's silver eyes blinked, and he could not help but gasp when he determined the cultivation level of the newcomers.
There were only more than 75 enemies, but the few Heavenly Army stationed here could not even withstand a single blow!
"How did the Pure Spirit Kingdom find out about this place?" Gu Chen's pupils constricted, and he realized that things were bad.
At this moment.
"Haha Jie, it seems that today is a great harvest!"
A burst of evil laughter came, and a pair of huge ghostly fire eyes suddenly lit up in the distant starry sky, sending chills down one's spine!
"Man with a bamboo hat!"
Gu Chen was shocked.
"Gu Chen, I've finally found you, my favorite experimental subject!"
"You're also here with the Unorthodox Holy Physique. I'm going to catch all of you today!"
Man with a bamboo hat's voice was as crazy and demonic as ever, and that laughter made Gu Chen's heart sink.
"Jingling Taoist?!"
Tang Ning and Li Shunyu were shocked.
