Chapter 232: Talking Privately

Zhong Chenghou bowed his hand and said, "Long time no see." Master Gu, can you talk about it alone? There are some words that are not enough for outsiders. ”

"Outsiders?" Gu Du glanced at Chu Qin and Zhong Jinling.

Zhong Chenghou said: "People other than you and me. ”

Yun Jincai and Cheng Yuelan moved closer to Gu Du at the same time, looking at Zhong Chenghou expressionlessly.

Zhong Chenghou's gaze swept over the faces of the two of them, and said, "I'm so old, I can fight if I want to, why deceive?" ”

Gu Duming put a case on the beach, put tea on the table, and sat opposite Zhong Chenghou. Chu Qin and the others were all five zhang away, in fact, not only Gu Du didn't know what Zhong Chenghou was going to do, but even Chu Qin and Zhong Jinling didn't know what Zhong Chenghou was going to do.

Therefore, Chu Qin and the other four people were about a foot apart, guarding against each other, as long as Zhong Chenghou and Gu Du made a move, the four of them would immediately fight.

Zhong Chenghou stared at Gu Du for a while and said, "Your entry is really fast, have you advanced to the peak realm?" ”

Gu Du replied: "It's not a secret, I don't know much about it without a teacher's teaching." ”

Zhong Chenghou nodded, raised his hand and waved, and asked, "Can you feel the wind in my hand?" ”

Gu Du hesitated for a moment and replied, "No." ”

Zhong Chenghou waved his hand again, a little stronger than before, Gu Du said, "I feel it this time." ”

Zhong Chenghou said: "You are only one step away from the peak realm, at least three years, at most five years, and you will definitely be promoted." ”

Gu Du was slightly surprised, and arched his hand and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”

Zhong Chenghou smiled and asked, "Are you willing to come this time, do you mean to meet me?" ”

Gu Du nodded and replied, "You are always the only peak realm soul master in the world, I want to confirm my entry, I can only come to you old, there is no other choice." ”

Zhong Chenghou smiled and nodded, and said, "You don't need to do it, it's been confirmed just now." ”

Gu Du frowned, not understanding what Zhong Chenghou meant.

Zhong Chenghou said: "You should think that the Spirit Emperor still wants to get rid of you, and if you want to get rid of you, the only way to do it is to force me to take action." ”

Gu Du asked, "Am I wrong?" ”

Zhong Chenghou replied: "That's right. ”

Zhong Chenghou directly met with the Spirit Emperor, refused to kill Gu Du in person, and told the Spirit Emperor that he was no longer sure about killing Gu Du.

Zhong Chenghou didn't kill Gu Du back then, on the one hand, because he was worried about the revenge of Jue Lingmen, but the more important reason was that he didn't think that Gu Du might also be promoted to the peak soul master.

Because in the hundreds of years that can be traced, plus Zhong Chenghou, there are only five known peak realm soul masters.

If you want to become a Great Soul Master, you can do it with talent and hard work, but if you want to become a peak Soul Master, you have to rely more on the will of heaven.

The Spirit Emperor did not destroy Dongfang He's soul, it was not that he didn't expect Dongfang He to be a soul servant for Gu Du, but it didn't matter.

Chu Qin's understanding and expectations for the soul servant are on the high side, in fact, although the soul servant can communicate spiritual power with the soul master, it cannot effectively improve the soul master's basic spiritual power, the soul servant is nothing more than a comrade-in-arms who will not be killed by ordinary swords and can communicate with the soul master.

But for Gu Du, Dongfang He's role is not as good as Lixia, because Lixia can kill ghosts, but Dongfang He can't kill the Great Soul Master.

Both Lingguo and Jing Xuezhai sent fine works to Zeguo, and Lingguo's fine works only cared about Zeguo's movements, while Jing Xuezhai's fine works were more concerned about Gu Du's growth.

When Zhong Chenghou learned that Gu Du's spiritual power had grown rapidly, he regretted that he hadn't killed Gu Du back then, but then again, maybe this was also due to the will of heaven, Gu Du married Dongfang Xia Lan by mistake and became the uncle of Juelingmen.

If it weren't for this, Gu Du would definitely die back then.

Gu Du asked, "How can your old man know about my entry?" I haven't touched anyone, except for the guards, the people in my house are all disciples of the Jueling Sect, how can your old people sense my breath? ”

Zhong Chenghou replied: "The person I sent is not an ordinary person, as long as he passes by you, but he can sense your breath, and your breath is already close to mine, it is easy to perceive it." ”

Gu Du couldn't hide his excited smile, but he deliberately restrained himself.

Zhong Chenghou said: "You should be happy, although you are a little late in promotion, but after all, you are expected to be promoted." ”

Gu Du's smile dissipated and asked, "At what age did you get to the pinnacle of the realm?" ”

Zhong Chenghou smiled lightly and replied, "What's the matter?" Anyway, now that I'm old, and you're in the middle of the day, why do you need to compete for promotion? ”

Gu Du smiled and nodded in response: "You always say yes." Let me ask, does the Spirit Emperor listen to your old advice? ”

Zhong Chenghou replied: "He has to listen to it, and he has to listen if he doesn't listen." ”

Zhong Chenghou told the Spirit Emperor that he was no longer sure of killing Gu Du, not only was he not sure, but there was also a risk, and in terms of the current situation, anyone could die, but Gu Du could not die.

The reason why Gu Du can't die is very simple, Emperor Ze is weak, in the past ten years, Gu Du has taken over the military power, and Lixia has controlled internal affairs, although Lixia rarely speaks, but Lixia's joy and anger directly affect Zedi's decision-making.

Although Lixia has been the queen for many years, her affection with Gu Du has not faded much, let her choose between Emperor Ze and Gu Du, she must choose Emperor Ze, but if Gu Du dies in the Spirit Kingdom, it is difficult to say whether Li Xia will lose her mind.

Zhong Chenghou also admitted that with the current strength of Lingguo, he is capable of fighting on both sides, but why should he push himself into a corner? In fact, as long as the sea area was wide open, Gu Du would not dare to easily tear up the alliance and start a war against the Spirit Kingdom.

Zhong Chenghou looked at Gu Du and asked, "Am I right?" ”

Gu Du nodded and replied, "Yes." The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman benefited. ”

Zhong Chenghou said: "So the Spirit Emperor dispelled the idea of getting rid of you. ”

Gu Du sneered, and Zhong Chenghou said, "I know you have doubts, why would the Spirit Emperor listen to me?" Although I am a peak soul master, I am a commoner after all. ”

Gu Duying said: "You always say yes." ”

Zhong Chenghou said: "I have eight friendships with the first emperor, and I was the high priest of the first emperor, and I also told the Linghuang that if he insisted on killing you in a dream, I would kill him first, anyway, I turned against the first emperor because of him." ”

Gu Du was stunned, Zhong Chenghou smiled, and said: "But I want to be a close guard for the Spirit Emperor, so I want to warn you, even if you advance to the peak realm in the future, it will not be easy to break into the palace and assassinate." ”

Gu Du looked at him and stared at him for a while before saying, "You will always die in front of me." ”

Zhong Chenghou smiled and said, "You have also avenged Jin Lan's revenge, right?" You're not the emperor, so why do you have to kill the Spirit Emperor? There are no two days, and there are no two kings in the country, how much does this kind of thing have to do with you? ”
