When they arrived at the boundary between the inner city and the outer city, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately stopped the carriage and only let it go after Gu Chen showed his waist card.

Despite this, the soldier still ordered: "Please leave the city before the curfew."

Gu Chen nodded, indicating that he knew, because his aunt and sister wanted to go shopping, so after entering the inner city, they got off the carriage, and Gu Chen accompanied the mother and daughter to go shopping in the inner city.

Seeing the busy traffic in the inner city, the ground paved with blue bricks, and the streets extending in all directions, Xu Qing'e sighed: "I originally thought the outer city was pretty good, but compared with the inner city, it is as crude as the countryside."

Gu Qingyan and maid Xiaoyu on the side couldn't help but nod, obviously agreeing with this sentence.

Every building in the inner city is extremely exquisite and exquisite. On both sides of the street, the sound of hawking can be heard constantly. The pedestrians walking on the street are all wearing fine clothes and are either rich or noble.

Gu Qingyan's beautiful eyes were shining with hope, her big and smart eyes moved back and forth, she was extremely curious about everything in the inner city. The last time she came to the inner city, she was still very young, and her memory was already a little blurry, but

There are some vague impressions.

Seeing that it was still early, Gu Chen accompanied his aunt, mother and daughter for a stroll.

I have to say that even in the huge inner city, Gu Chen and his party are very eye-catching.

After all, Gu Chen has a handsome face and extraordinary temperament, and beside him, his aunts Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan are like two gorgeous flowers. Xu Qing'e is mature and attractive, while Gu Qingyan is gentle and pleasant. In addition, the aunt takes good care of them.

The two of them stand together, not like mother and daughter, but more like sisters.

On the street, countless male compatriots looked at her from time to time. If it weren't for Gu Chen standing beside her, maybe some people would come up and ask for Gu Qingyan's name.

Even when Gu Chengang met the mother and daughter, he secretly lamented the good luck of his second uncle Gu Chengfeng in marrying Xu Qing'e and giving birth to such a beautiful daughter as Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan didn't feel too uncomfortable when she felt so many eyes. After all, she had been used to it since she was a child.

After walking around with the three women for a while, Gu Chen looked at the sky and said to his aunt Xu Qing'e: "Aunt, I have something to do, so I'll leave for a while. You and Qingyan will go shopping first and take a fancy to it."

Just buy whatever you want, you’re welcome.”

Xu Qing'e heard this and knew that Gu Chenxian was busy with official duties after being promoted. She nodded and said, "Okay, Da Lang, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it first."

Immediately, Gu Chen made an appointment with them at a time and place to meet later, and then walked to the other side alone.

Prince Huai's Mansion is deep in the inner city, not far from the imperial palace. Logically speaking, as Prince Huai, he also has a residence in the imperial city. However, because of his own preferences, he prefers to live in the inner city unless there is something big.

He would choose to live inside the imperial city only if he needed to stay in the palace.

Prince Huai's residence is located in the core street of the inner city. It has an excellent geographical location. The entire residence is large in scale and majestic. The door is decorated with red lacquer and gold-coated copper nails. It is extremely luxurious and spectacular. There are countless main halls and courtyards, covering an area of

Thousands of acres.

In front of the gate of the palace, there are two warriors with solemn faces guarding here. Their aura is extremely calm, and their blood energy is quite strong. They don't even feel much weaker than Gu Chen. They are like two hills guarding here, which makes people feel unfathomable.

A guess emerged in Gu Chen's mind. Not surprisingly, the two warriors guarding the gate must have the cultivation level of the Vajra Realm.

Otherwise, I would definitely not give Gu Chen this feeling.

Arriving at the main entrance of the palace, Gu Chen looked solemn, took out his waist badge and handed it over, saying: "I am Gu Chen, the second-level inspector of the Jingtian Division. I am here on the orders of King Huai. Please help me to inform you."

A Vajra realm warrior nodded, took the badge, and went in to report.

The interior of the palace is decorated with blue glazed tiles, and is full of palaces, pavilions, waterside courtyards, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, and flying eaves. It is magnificent and gorgeous without losing its grandeur.

In a large hall inside the palace, Prince Huai, dressed in a blue shirt, was looking through files.

This man who was famous all over Kyushu and had all the power in the world was not as unruly and domineering as he imagined. Instead, he was a middle-aged man with a handsome face and an elegant and gentle temperament.

Behind King Huai, stood an old man with gray hair on his temples and a ruddy face. Standing there, he seemed to be integrated with the surrounding scenery, like a sculpture, without any breath.

He is the confidant of King Huai and his personal guard. Everyone in Prince Huai's palace respects him as Mr. Gongsun.

At this time, a servant came to report: "Your Majesty, Gu Chen from Jingtiansi has arrived."

Prince Huai, who was immersed in the files, raised his head and said with some surprise: "A person from Jingtiansi?"

The old man standing behind Prince Huai whispered: "Your Majesty, the person you asked me to go to Jingtiansi to find is this Gu Chen."

When King Huai heard this, he slapped his forehead and said, "By the way, I remembered it. There is such a thing. After getting older, my brain really doesn't work very well sometimes."

When Mr. Gongsun heard this, a trace of worry appeared on his face and he said: "My lord, you haven't slept a wink these past few days. Please take care of yourself."

King Huai smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Now that the emperor is in seclusion, the world is already in chaos. When the emperor was in seclusion, I promised him that I would help him protect the billions of miles of rivers and mountains in Great Xia."

As he said this, the King of Huai suddenly coughed several times. It was obvious that he was indeed not in good health.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Gongsun quickly transferred a few strands of Qi into Prince Huai's body, and Prince Huai's complexion instantly became rosy.

"It's all thanks to you, Mr. Gongsun, for all the hard work you have done over the years." Prince Huai said with a faint smile, not caring about his stubborn physical ailments.

After all, he had been in poor health since he was a child. He was born this way and over the years, he had gotten used to it.

After hearing this, Mr. Gongsun said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this little thing is nothing to me, but you, please don't hurt your body because of these little things. You don't have to do everything yourself. Some things are left to the people below.

Just do it, the Liuhe Divine Sect has disappeared for so many years, and even if it reappears, with Daxia’s national power, they won’t be able to cause any trouble."

Prince Huai smiled and didn't say much. He said to the servant, "Okay, don't keep me waiting. Go ahead and bring Gu Chenxuan up."

"Yes." Hearing this, the servant retreated silently.

Soon, Gu Chen was brought in by his servants and saw this great man who was praised by people all over the world as being inferior to one person in Daxia and above ten thousand people.

"I've met the prince." Gu Chen lowered his head and clasped his fists and said. As the imperial envoy of Jingtiansi, he is different from other officials in Daxia. He can meet the princes, nobles, and even dignitaries of Daxia without kneeling.

Just give a gift.

This is also the privilege given to Jingtiansi by Emperor Xia.

"Sit down." King Huai nodded and motioned for Gu Chen to sit down.

When Gu Chen heard this, he didn't say anything and sat down obediently. It was only then that he discovered Mr. Gongsun standing behind Prince Huai.

Gu Chen's heart immediately froze. If he hadn't seen it with his eyes, he would never have noticed that there was such a person behind King Huai. Unlike the two warriors guarding the gate, Gu Chen completely felt the presence of Mr. Gongsun.

There is no energy at all. If you close your eyes, it will be as if this person does not exist at all.

No, in other words, this old man has been integrated with all things in the world and has become a part of the world. It is precisely because of this that in Gu Chen's perception, such a person does not exist at all.

Anyone who can achieve this level must undoubtedly be a great master in the Xiantian realm!

Gu Chen also did not expect that besides King Huai, he would actually see a great master of martial arts with his own eyes today.

You must know that in Jingtian Division, apart from the twelve garrison envoys stationed in various states, there are only some extremely senior commanders with such cultivation.

And such a strong man was actually King Huai's personal guard.

Moreover, Gu Chen knew that Prince Huai could not only have such a guard. Although he could not sense it, Gu Chen guessed that there might be people hidden everywhere in this room, but they were too strong and Gu Chen could not detect them.

.

Seeing Gu Chen, Mr. Gongsun still remained silent. After all, in the huge Huai Prince's Palace, apart from Prince Huai, there were only a few people who could make him speak, let alone a junior like Gu Chen.

Prince Huai had a gentle temperament and his eyes were deep and restrained. He seemed to have seen Gu Chen's inner thoughts and said with a smile: "There is no need to be formal, and there is no need to care too much about Mr. Gongsun. Let's just talk about our affairs."

After hearing this, Mr. Gongsun also said: "Yes, just pretend that I don't exist."

"Yes." Gu Chen replied respectfully.

At the same time, he also took this opportunity to take a look at Prince Huai. This Prince Huai seemed to have a ruddy complexion, but his body was thin and his energy was weak. He was no different from ordinary people. There were also some wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. He looked just like

As rumored, he has average martial arts talent and really has no cultivation.

"I'm looking for you this time because you had dealings with people from the Demon Cult in Huangming Mountain a few days ago. You were also the first person to see the fusion of Demon Cult warriors and demons at close range, so I wanted to call you over for something.

Let’s ask.” King Huai said slowly.

"Your Majesty, please speak." Gu Chen cupped his fists and said.

King Huai nodded and said, "Please tell me the whole story exactly."

"Yes." Immediately, Gu Chen described everything that happened in the sword discussion conference in detail.

After listening to Gu Chen's account, King Huai frowned slightly and said: "Sure enough, I knew that the Liuhe Divine Sect had not been completely destroyed and had been hiding in the dark. It's just that the number of demons and ghosts has increased over the years, so they have not focused their efforts on it.

I went to deal with it, but I never thought that it would actually cause a serious trouble."

"I heard Chen Yu tell you your guess. You have also met many demon sect warriors during this period. What do you think is the number of warriors within the demon sect who are perfectly integrated with demons and ghosts?"

Gu Chen pondered for a moment and said: "The proportion is very small. It is not that easy to merge with demons and ghosts. I have also killed many demon sect warriors, but not many encounter this situation."

"But..." Gu Chen hesitated for a moment, and then, after King Huai nodded, he continued: "We don't know how many manpower the Demon Cult has secretly accumulated, and how much the strength of the warriors has improved after merging with the demons and ghosts.

Extremely, demons and ghosts are inherently weird and unpredictable. Jingtiansi spent a lot of energy to suppress them and maintain a balance. But now, the appearance of the Demon Cult warriors has broken this balance. I am afraid that secretly, in the world of Jianghu,

There will be many people who secretly join the Demon Cult."

"Furthermore... the warriors of the demon sect are ruthless. After merging with demons and ghosts, they will probably massacre and kill innocent people indiscriminately to enhance their own strength. Jingtiansi wants to suppress them. It will be countless times more difficult than simply facing demons and ghosts." Gu

Said in a deep voice.

When King Huai heard this, he nodded slightly. This was also a problem he was worried about. Although the number of demons and ghosts was large, they were not very intelligent after all. As long as they were discovered, they could be dealt with in time. But now, after the demon sect warriors merged with the demons and ghosts and became demons and aliens,

Hidden in the world, the degree of difficulty will be greatly increased.

As a result, the strength of the Liuhe Divine Sect will be increased countless times, which is why they dare to announce their return to the world.

"Mr. Gongsun, if he is a great master of the Xiantian Realm who has merged with the underworld demons and ghosts, can you confidently deal with it?" Prince Huai asked with his back to Mr. Gongsun.
