Chapter 5 The Mysterious Gu Suyang
After a night of running exercises, the injuries in Ye Chen's body had recovered. As for hunting, Ye Chen was not in a hurry. With that two-star demon core, the first one must be almost there.
Although the city lord didn't say the score of the two-star demon core, it wouldn't be too low. Now that the injury has healed, Ye Chen naturally will not continue to stay in the tree hole.
Ye Chen walked aimlessly in the forest, hunting a few more demon beasts.
As I walked, I heard some movement ahead. When Ye Chen walked in, it was Wang Shuangming.
When Wang Shuangming saw Ye Chen, his eyes were shining, as if he had seen prey. He said viciously: "Ye Chen, even if you kid is unlucky, since you met me, then pay the price for what you said at the beginning!"
Ye Chen didn't know in his heart whether to say that he was an idiot or something else. Listening to Wang Shuangming's tone, is he determined to eat himself? He is really confident!
"I say idiot, ah, no. It's Wang Shuangming, are you so sure that you will win me?" It's not that Ye Chen deliberately wanted to scold him, but Wang Shuangming's impression in Ye Chen's heart at this moment is really an idiot.
When Wang Shuangming heard this, he was even more annoyed: "Ye Chen! You still have a hard mouth when you are dying! Eat me!" After that, Wang Shuangming pounced.
The exercise based on the Wang family is a knife method, so the people of the Wang family use knives.
Wang Shuangming's big knife was wielding a tiger and a tiger, but it was indeed full of flaws in Ye Chen's eyes.
With Ye Chen's current cultivation, even if it was the Nine Heavens of the Body Refining Realm, he would not be afraid. Not to mention Wang Shuangming's Seventh Heaven.
Wang Shuangming slashed over with a knife, but by the time he landed, Ye Chen had disappeared. Wang Shuangming looked around vigilantly, and a bad premonition fermented in his heart.
"Poof. With a sound, Wang Shuangming looked at the sword on his chest in shock. Knowing this, he realized how self-defeating it was to find Ye Chen's trouble.
But now it's too late to say anything, Wang Shuangming doesn't even know how Ye Chen got the sword.
Wang Shuangming fell to the ground weakly, and as for the demon core and other things on his body, they were naturally taken away by Ye Chen.
"Bang, bang, bang!" A round of applause rang out from behind him. "Wonderful, wonderful. Gu Suyang walked out with a sigh while applauding.
"I didn't expect that the legendary waste young master of the Ye family turned out to be a genius who crossed the level of challenge. Gu Suyang said in an incredible tone.
Ye Chen saw that it was Gu Suyang who walked out, and immediately opened his distance vigilantly. "What's the matter with you?" Ye Chen asked vigilantly.
"I'm fine, I just saw the battle and thought it was exciting. Gu Suyang shrugged.
However, Ye Chen obviously didn't believe Gu Suyang's statement, he didn't believe that Gu Suyang had watched it for so long and had no purpose at all.
"Really?" Ye Chen said tentatively.
"Of course it's true. Gu Suyang said with a smile and a smile. How do you feel that this young man who is about the same age as him is so vigilant.
"Since it's okay, then I'm out of company. Ye Chen heard Gu Suyang's answer, and knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he was ready to leave immediately.
"Hey!" Just as Ye Chen was about to leave, Gu Suyang stopped him.
"What else is wrong with you?" Ye Chen turned around and said in an impatient tone.
"It's nothing, just tell you and we'll see you again. Gu Suyang smiled slightly.
"Inexplicable. Ye Chen muttered and left.
Soon, the last day of hunting also passed. Several people gathered in the Falling Star Forest, but Wang Shuangming was the only one who was not there.
"Did any of you see Wang Shuangming?" the city lord couldn't help but ask when he saw that Wang Shuangming had never returned.
Several people said they didn't know. Of course, only Ye Chen and Gu Suyang knew that Wang Shuangming would not come back. Because he is dead, how can the dead come back?
The group waited for a long time, but they never saw Wang Shuangming come back, and the city lord began to announce the ranking.
First place: Ye Chen
Second place: Li Jiaojiao
Third place: Yan Kuan
Fourth place: Chen Lichu
Fifth place: Wu Xiangyu
Sixth place: Lin Jun
Seventh place: Gu Suyang
Hearing that Gu Suyang turned out to be the last one, Ye Chen was a little surprised. After all, Ye Chen could see that Gu Suyang's strength was definitely not weak, but why was he the last?
But he didn't have to think about it, and then it was time to award the rewards.
The reward for the first place is three bottles of Qingyuan Dan plus one million gold coins, the reward for the second place is two bottles of Qingyuan Dan plus 500,000 gold coins, and the reward for the third place is one bottle of Qingyuan Dan plus 100,000 gold coins.
As for the rest, there are no rewards. However, others didn't dare to say anything, after all, it was an event held by the City Lord's Mansion, and the rules were naturally decided by the City Lord's Mansion.
Next is the banquet of the City Lord's Mansion, and all kinds of politeness are naturally indispensable during the banquet.
"Ye Chen, it's very good that you won the first place this time. The city lord raised his wine glass and gestured to Ye Chen.
Seeing this, Ye Chen hurriedly raised his wine glass and responded: "Lord City Lord has praised it falsely, I'm just lucky." ”
"Don't call it the city lord, listen to the more life, call it Uncle Murong. The lord of the castle pretended to be unhappy.
Ye Chen didn't twist either, and directly called Uncle Murong. The city lord of Falling Star City, his name is Murong Feng.
Chen Lichu saw that no one paid attention to him at all, and he only won the fourth place, so he didn't have the face to continue to stay. I found an excuse and left.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to stare at Ye Chen viciously, he thought that if it wasn't for Ye Chen's limelight, his ranking would never be so low.
And Ye Chen didn't know that he had already been remembered by Chen Lichu.
The banquet continued, and it did not have an impact because of Chen Lichu's departure. The banquet lasted until very late, and Ye Chen and his party also left the City Lord's Mansion after bidding farewell to the City Lord.
"Ye Chen, wait a minute. Ye Chen heard someone calling himself, and when he looked back, it was Li Jiaojiao. When he thought about it, he didn't seem to have anything to do with her. At the moment, he asked suspiciously, "Something?"
"It's nothing, I just want to ask you, Wang Shuangming was killed by you. Li Jiaojiao seemed to ask casually, but when Ye Chen heard this, his hand unconsciously pressed on the sword.
"Eh, don't be so nervous, I'm not going to eat you again. Li Jiaojiao joked when she saw this, and continued: "Don't worry, I won't say it, but what you have to worry about is Chen Lichu." ”
"Chen Lichu?" Ye Chen asked suspiciously: "He didn't know that I killed Wang Shuangming, what were he worried about?"
When Li Jiaojiao heard this, she smiled slightly: "He knows that it doesn't matter if he doesn't know, the important thing is whether he will directly say that you did it." Okay, I won't say more, it's getting late, so I'll take my leave. ”
After that, without waiting for Ye Chen to answer, he turned around and left.
"Chen Lichu..."Ye Chen muttered, it seems that he has to sit down and prepare when he goes back.
"Young Master Ye's peach blossom luck is really strong. A figure walked out from around the corner, and sure enough, it was Gu Suyang again.
"I said, when will your eavesdropping problem be fixed?" Ye Chen said helplessly, he couldn't figure out this Gu Suyang, and he didn't know what he was going to do.
"Hmm? What eavesdropping. Gu Suyang simply pretended to be stupid.
Seeing Gu Suyang's appearance, Ye Chen knew that he didn't plan to admit it. didn't pursue it at the moment, and asked directly about the hunt.
"Your strength is not weaker than others, why are you the last?" Ye Chen asked suspiciously.
"Oh, this, I'm too lazy to hunt demon beasts, so I'm naturally the last one. Gu Suyang replied disappreciatively.
"Uh... Wonderful. This is the only evaluation of Gu Suyang that Ye Chen can think of.
Ye Chen shook his head, turned around and prepared to leave. "Half a year later, the Xuanji Sect will come to Falling Star City to select disciples. Gu Suyang suddenly said a word.
Ye Chen paused: "Why did you tell me the news?"
"I think you'll be interested, so I'll tell you. After speaking, Gu Suyang turned around and left directly.
"Half a year later..."Ye Chen muttered. Looks like we need to make some preparations.
