Chapter 604: The Night Banquet

Gu Chen didn't expect that the Gu family would become the pride of the residents of Qingyuan City! He thought that because of the sudden departure of the Gu family, the residents of Qingyuan City would be dissatisfied with this. But who knew that instead of being dissatisfied, they were proud, which made Gu Chen reap an unexpected joy.

Gu Chen and Huang Zhong chatted all the way, and soon everyone came to Huang's house.

Under the leadership of Huang Zhong, Gu Chen, Feng Rinwu, and Long Ranxi came to a courtyard full of feasts.

The seats in the courtyard were almost full by this time.

The arrival of Gu Chen and the three of them immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Gu Chen also found that many of the people here were acquaintances.

Among them, there are Luo Shenji, the sect leader of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, the second elder of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, Hua Liuyun, the head of the Heavenly Sword Academy, Qu Shu, the head of the Dao Court, Luo Yunyang, the young master of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, Yan Feifei, the wife of the young master of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, Mo Xuanyi, the true disciple of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, and so on.

There are also the Shura Hall Purgatory Venerable, the Ghost Sword Venerable, the Spirit Venerable, the Poison Shura Lin Yan, the Yan Shura Yan and so on.

There are three main seats on the top, the central position sits the Roselle machine, the left position sits the Purgatory Venerable, and the right position is in the air.

Others are seated in two rows of seats on either side of the bottom.

Except for Luo Shenji, almost all of them were people who entered the secret realm of the ruins with Gu Chen.

"Sect Master Gu, Feng Girl, Dragon Girl!"

Everyone greeted the three of them.

Gu Chen and the three of them also returned the salute one by one, "Sect Master Luo, Second Elder, Purgatory Venerable, Ghost Sword Venerable, Spirit Venerable, Brother Luo, Brother Lin...... Don't come here unharmed!"

Huang Zhong was standing behind Gu Chen at this time, and he was even more surprised when he saw this scene, he didn't expect Gu Chen to be so familiar with these super masters, originally Gu Chen, as the leader of the Pantheistic Sect, was respected, but Huang Zhong found that these people were not just pretending, but really admired Gu Chen!

Luo Shenji suddenly pointed to the seat on the right side of the head and said, "Sect Master Gu, please take a seat!

"Hehe, Sect Master Luo is really a clever plan, and he actually calculated that this seat is coming tonight!" Gu Chen couldn't help but smile at Luo Shenji, and between his words, it seemed to be a point.

Luo Shenji didn't seem to listen to Gu Chen's words, and smiled casually: "This sect is just a guess, after all, Sect Leader Gu is famous for his fondness for joining in the fun, how can such a lively thing be without the participation of Sect Leader Gu?"

Gu Chen immediately shook his head and laughed when he heard this, and took Feng Linwu and Long Ranxi to the seat on the right side of the head and sat down.

Luo Shenji pointed to the first position on the left side of the lower side, and said to Huang Zhong who was standing below: "The head of the Huang family is also invited to the table!

Huang Zhong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't dare, don't dare! If you have a low status, how dare you be the chief? Sect Master Luo must not be embarrassed! Being able to sit in the first place below is already lifted by you, how dare you not know what to do?"

Luo Shenji smiled: "Since the Huang family master is humble, then it will be disrespectful for me to wait!"

"It should be, it should be!" Huang Zhong hurriedly replied, and then cautiously came to the first place on the left side below and sat down.

"By the way, Huang Family Master, I don't know how the old lady is doing lately, why didn't the old lady attend today?" Gu Chen suddenly asked Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong hurriedly replied: "I have the concern of the Lao Gu Sect Master, my father has always been in good health! It's just that his cultivation has been hindered recently, and he is in retreat, so I didn't disturb him!"

Gu Chen nodded and said, "I see! Since his old man is in retreat, it really shouldn't be disturbed!"

At this time, the Purgatory Venerable suddenly said to Gu Chen curiously: "Sect Master Gu seems to be very familiar with the Huang family! There was a rumor that Sect Master Gu was originally from Yunzhou, could it be that Sect Master Gu was once a person from this Qingyuan City?"

Gu Chen nodded and said: "Yes, my Gu family has settled in Qingyuan City in Yunzhou for nearly two hundred years, and before the Huang family, the Gu family has always been the leader of Qingyuan City!

"Oh, in this way, Sect Master Gu should be very familiar with everything around Qingyuan City?" the Purgatory Venerable hurriedly asked Gu Chen.

Gu Chen nodded again and said, "That's natural! I don't know why the Purgatory Venerable asked this?"

The Purgatory Venerable asked Gu Chen again, "Does Sect Master Gu know that there is a great mysterious force hidden within the Yunqing Plain in the south?"

"Yunqing Plain?mysterious forces?" Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I have never heard of this matter!"

The Purgatory Venerable suddenly frowned and muttered, "For so many years, they didn't even notice the local First Family, how did they do it?"

Gu Chen couldn't help but be curious when he heard this, and was trying to find out the bottom of it, when Luo Shenji suddenly said: "After the banquet is over, I will discuss these things in detail with Sect Leader Gu, at this time, let's relax and eat and drink first! Don't let down the Huang family's wishes!"

Gu Chen nodded, and said with a smile: "Sect Master Luo is reasonable, since this is the case, we will not talk about business for the time being!

Subsequently, Huang Zhong instructed his subordinates to start serving wine and food.

A number of exquisite dishes and fine wine were served by a beautiful maid.

It made everyone's index fingers move.

Everyone here is a person of noble status and high status, and even high-end food has been enjoyed.

After all, the Huang family couldn't compare with the Lingxiao Sword Sect, the Shura Palace, and the Pantheistic Sect.

However, although these ingredients are not high-end, it is obvious that a lot of thought has been spent, whether it is the appearance or taste, there is nothing to say, and everyone eats with relish.

When the moon rises in the sky, the banquet is finally over, everyone is full of wine and food, and the guests and hosts are happy.

......

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

After the banquet, Feng Rin Wu and Long Ranxi first went to the guest room arranged by the Huang family to rest, while Gu Chen was invited by Luo Shenji to come to Luo Shenji's separate courtyard with the Purgatory Venerable.

The three of them sat down at a stone table in the courtyard.

Gu Chen opened his mouth and asked Luo Shenji, "Dare to ask Sect Master Luo, what is the situation in Yunzhou now?"

Luo Shenji poured a cup of tea for Purgatory Venerable and Gu Chen respectively, and then took a sip of the tea himself, and then said slowly: "Alas! The situation is a little bad! Sikong Changye not only has a large number of Heavenly Rank masters appeared on his side, but their number is at least over a hundred! Not counting Yun Tianqing, there are several other Saint Realm powerhouses, and what is even more incredible is that there is even a mysterious Saint Realm powerhouse! Their lair is in the depths of the Yunqing Plain, where there is also an unknown large array guarding it. Sikong Changye had previously issued a battle post to Shizun, asking me to wait for five days to fight to the death in the Yunqing Plain! Now, Shizun, Senior Brother, and the Sword Emperor have all gone to the Yunqing Plain to inquire about the news, hoping to find out the enemy's situation, so as not to fall into the trap when the time comes!"

Gu Chen's heart was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect Sikong Changye to have such a background, this is really incredible, how did he recruit so many masters? In particular, there was a Saint Realm powerhouse in the world who had unknowingly appeared! This is also outrageous, isn't it? Are all Saint Realm powerhouses rotten cabbage now?

"Do you know where that mysterious Saint Realm powerhouse came from?" Gu Chen couldn't help but ask Luo Shenji curiously.

Luo Shenji shook his head and said, "Only the Sword Emperor has seen that person, and it was through the soul jade, when Luo Heng, the deputy hall master of the Shura Palace, died. The Sword Emperor didn't recognize the man's origin!"

Gu Chen was shocked again, he didn't expect that Luo Heng, the deputy hall master of the Shura Hall who had never met but had heard of his name many times, was already dead!

Gu Chen frowned and said, "This is strange! It stands to reason that as long as you are a master above the Holy Realm, you must be famous and well-known, there is no reason why a Saint Realm powerhouse should still be nameless?"

Luo Shenji nodded and said, "This person is indeed very strange! According to what the Sword Emperor said, the aura on that person's body is very mixed, and it seems to be a combination of the three disciplines of Taoism, Buddha, and Demon!"

Gu Chen said with a look of disbelief: "How is this possible? How can a person have three sets of exercises at the same time? If the other two exercises are auxiliary exercises, then it will not affect the breath! It will only show the breath of its main exercise, and it is absolutely impossible for three different exercise breaths to appear at the same time!"

The Purgatory Venerable spoke, "We all think so, but with the vision of the hall master, it is impossible to be mistaken!"

The Purgatory Venerable spoke again: "However, no matter how weird that person is, there is no need for us to be afraid! That mysterious person, plus Sikong Changye, and the Dragon King of the Demon Clan, are a total of three Holy Realms, and our Sword Emperor, Sword Immortal, and Elder Xiao are also three Holy Realms, and the Sword Emperor and Sword Immortal are even stronger at the peak, and our chances of winning are still very large! As for their masters from the Holy Realm and the Heavenly Rank, there are also many masters on our side, in addition to us, there are also the Lingxiao Sword Guards of the Lingxiao Sword Sect and the Blood Killing Guards of my Shura Palace!" Now, with the help of Sect Leader Gu and Miss Feng, the odds of winning have increased greatly!"

Gu Chen nodded when he heard this, there is really no need to be afraid of it, but the strength of the other party is not weak, and there will definitely be a bloody battle when the time comes.

This is not in line with what Gu Chen thought before, he originally thought that he had a sword immortal and a sword emperor in charge, and he should be crushing, and he would destroy Sikong Changye and the others like a bamboo, but he didn't expect that he would have to go through a bitter battle.

Gu Chen glanced at Luo Shenji and Purgatory Venerable, and said, "Then what should we do next? I don't think there is any need to do what the enemy wants, right? After about five days, we can't attack in advance? It's better to take the initiative than to be led by the enemy, right?"

The Purgatory Venerable said with a smile: "Sect Master Gu's idea coincides with the old man's! The old man also thinks that it is appropriate to take the initiative after all!"

Luo Shenji waved his hand and said: "Even if you want to attack, you must first find out the enemy's situation, after all, the strength they showed before may not be all the strength! In addition, the large array in their lair does not know where it came from and what effect it has, if you want to attack, I am afraid that you will be ambushed!"

Hearing this, Gu Chen glanced at Luo Shenji and Purgatory Venerable strangely.

The two of them were immediately furious at the bottom of their hearts when Gu Chen saw it.

"Uh, Sect Master Gu, why are you looking at the old man like this?" the Purgatory Venerable couldn't help but ask Gu Chen.

Gu Chen suddenly said: "The Lingxiao Sword Sect and the Shura Hall should both have extremely accomplished array mages, right?

Luo Shenji and Purgatory Venerable glanced at each other, and then nodded at the same time.
