Chapter 706: Eruption
Waiting and waiting, Gu Chen suddenly remembered that Long Ranxi had given him a purple shell, this kind of shell is a pair of twos and twos, only the two people who hold the shell are not too far away, and they can transmit sound through the shell, the last time Gu Chen followed the sword fairy to the Demon Emperor Palace, Long Ranxi contacted Gu Chen through the shell, so Gu Chen wanted to determine whether Long Ranxi was really not in the Demon Emperor Palace.
I saw that Gu Chen's palm was flipped, and a delicate purple shell suddenly appeared in his palm.
"Huh?" Gu Chen suddenly frowned, looked at the shell in his hand and muttered, "Strange, this shell seems to be a little different! In the past, it was constantly emitting a faint purple light, but now why is it so dim and without any luster?"
Gu Chen couldn't help but use his soul power to infiltrate the inside of the shell, but found that there was no spiritual power fluctuation in the shell at all.
Gu Chen had long known that the principle of the shell's sound transmission was to transmit sound through the same yuan force fluctuations, but now that this half of the shell no longer had the slightest spiritual power, it was naturally impossible to transmit the sound anymore!
"What's the matter? Is it broken? But I don't usually use it much!" Gu Chen suddenly became puzzled.
"Someone!" Gu Chen suddenly shouted outside.
The red-clothed palace maid from before walked in quickly and bowed to Gu Chen: "Meet Sect Master Gu, I don't know what Sect Master Gu commands?"
Gu Chen said to the red-clothed palace maid, "Come here, come to me!"
The red-clothed palace maid was stunned for a moment, then her pretty face turned red, and she said in her heart: "Does he want to ......?"
"What are you still doing in a daze, come here!" Gu Chen saw that the red-clothed palace maid was stunned in place, and couldn't help urging her.
The red-clothed palace maid couldn't help pursing her lips, and then suddenly made up her mind, walked quickly in front of Gu Chen, and looked at Gu Chen timidly.
Gu Chen didn't pay attention to the expression of the red-clothed palace maid, but directly stretched out his palm in front of the red-clothed palace maid's eyes, and asked her, "Do you know this thing?"
The red-clothed palace maid was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly a little embarrassed, she realized at this time that Gu Chen didn't think about her, but asked her to recognize things!
The red-clothed palace maid quickly looked at the shell in Gu Chen's hand, and then said to Gu Chen: "This is a sound transmission magic device made of thousand-year-old spirit shells, two by two, one pair, which can transmit sound to each other within a certain distance!"
Gu Chen nodded and said, "I remember that this thing has always been shining with light before, why is it suddenly dim today?"
The red-clothed palace maid said after a deep groan: "There is only one possibility for this situation! That is, the other half of the spirit shell has been damaged, so due to the mutual induction between the spirit shells, this half of the spirit shells have also lost their aura, and now they are no different from ordinary shells!"
"Damage?" Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: "Could it be that Ran Xi has an accident?"
Thinking of this, Gu Chen suddenly became impatient, and hurriedly grabbed the shoulders of the red-clothed palace maid and said, "Go and call Prime Minister Hu Cheng to see me!"
The red-clothed palace maid suddenly felt pain, but she didn't dare to scream, so she could only endure the severe pain, gritted her teeth and responded, "Yes...... Slaves...... Let's go!"
Gu Chen realized at this time that he inadvertently didn't control his strength and scratched the palace maid in red, so he hurriedly let go of her and said at the same time: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" said the red-clothed palace maid hurriedly shook her head.
"It's okay, you can go!" Gu Chen nodded and said to the red-clothed palace maid.
......
It didn't take long for Hu Shan to arrive in a hurry.
As soon as Hu Shan entered Xihe Palace, before he could greet Gu Chen, he was grabbed by Gu Chen's shoulder.
Gu Chen looked at Hu Shan with a serious face and asked him, "Prime Minister Hu, tell me honestly, is there something wrong with Ran Xi!"
Hu Shan was stunned for a moment, and then asked Gu Chen with a puzzled expression, "Why did Sect Master Gu say this?"
"You just have to tell me yes or no!" Gu Chen said to Hu Shan with an impatient expression.
Hu Shan smiled bitterly and said, "No, what can happen to Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
"Then why did the spirit shell she gave me suddenly lose its spiritual power? The palace maid told me earlier that it was caused by the damage of the other half of the spirit shell!" Gu Chen hurriedly asked Hu Shan.
"Uh......" Hu Shan suddenly groaned, and then said: "Perhaps, Her Royal Highness the Princess accidentally broke the Lingbei! It's okay, although the Lingbei is precious, there are still a few pairs in the treasure house of the demon clan, if Sect Master Gu likes it, when His Majesty returns, His Majesty will let His Majesty send another pair to Sect Leader Gu!"
"I don't care about Lingbei!, but I don't have to care about Ran Xi's safety!" Gu Chen waved his hand and said.
Hu Shan said with a serious face: "If this is just the case, Sect Leader Gu can rest assured, now that the internal strife of the Demon Clan has been decided, Her Royal Highness the Princess has cultivated to a high level, and there is a strong Dragon Clan to protect it, there will never be any danger!
"Dragon Clan Master Guard, So, does Prime Minister Hu know where Ran Xi is?" Gu Chen's eyes flashed, and he looked at Hu Shan deeply and said.
Hu Shan hurriedly said: "Uh, guess, this is just the old man's guess! Her Royal Highness the princess is the heir to the throne of the Demon Emperor, so naturally there will be a strong dragon clan guarding her at all times!
"The heir to the position of the Demon Emperor, you said that the Demon Emperor has made Ran Xi the prince?" Gu Chen suddenly looked at Hu Shan in disbelief and said.
Hu Shan suddenly looked annoyed, and said in his heart: "Look at my broken mouth! What did I say? Why don't you confess to yourself? I really can't hide it now! This Gu Sect Master is a human spirit, no matter how much you quibble, it's useless!"
"Prime Minister Hu, what the hell is going on?" Gu Chen asked Hu Shan in a low voice.
"Alas!" Hu Shan sighed lightly and said, "Sect Master Gu, in fact, you don't need to be so surprised! After all, Her Royal Highness the Princess has always been one of the candidates for the succession of the Demon Emperor appointed by His Majesty! Now that she has the blood of the Divine Dragon, she shoulders the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the Demon Clan, and inheriting the position of the Demon Emperor is already an ironclad matter! Your Majesty has announced to the world that Princess Linglong will be established as the prince, and after Your Majesty abdicates, she will be the new Demon Emperor!"
Gu Chen's heart was shocked, and then he said to Hu Shan, "Is this her voluntary?"
Hu Shan looked at Gu Chen with deep meaning and said: "Of course it is! Her Royal Highness the princess has solemnly sworn in front of the entire dragon clan and the demon clan ministers that she will lead the demon clan to become strong in the future, and from then on, everything will be the most important thing for the demon clan!
Gu Chen suddenly felt like falling into an ice cave, and roared at Hu Shan frantically: "You lied to me! Ran Xi and I have already agreed to stay together for the rest of our lives! The location of the Demon Emperor is nothing to her! She will never voluntarily inherit the position of the Demon Emperor! It is even more impossible for her to sever my affection for her! You say, did you force her?"
Hu Shan hurriedly said to Gu Chen in a serious voice: "Sect Master Gu, you have to recognize the reality! This time and that time! Her Royal Highness the princess has grown up, she is no longer the reckless little girl she used to be, she is now shouldering the burden of the dragon clan and the entire demon clan, this is her responsibility! The responsibility that must be born! Moreover, you are a human race after all, and it is absolutely impossible for Her Royal Highness the princess to be with you!"
Gu Chen suddenly said with a look of disdain: "Impossible, what is going on between the Demon Emperor and the Sword Immortal, what is the matter with Ling Yuan's existence?"
Hu Shan shook his head and said: "If Her Royal Highness the princess's bloodline power is average, the dragon clan may still turn a blind eye, but now she has the blood of the divine dragon! This is the hope of the entire dragon clan, and the power of the bloodline of the dragon clan will begin to reach the peak again in the next generation! Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the dragon clan to marry her to a foreign race! Even the other races in our demon clan have no possibility, let alone the human race!"
"Is it possible that it's not up to you to have the final say!" Gu Chen said coldly to Hu Shan.
Then, Gu Chen looked at Hu Shan with cold eyes, and said word by word: "I, want, see, demon, emperor!"
After speaking, Gu Chen suddenly showed his momentum, and a shocking momentum instantly enveloped half of the Demon Emperor Palace, and the Praetorian Guards were suddenly taken aback by this sudden momentum.
Hu Shan was even more shocked, and his legs trembled unconsciously.
"Gu, Sect Leader Gu, you, are you going to be an enemy of my demon clan? Your behavior is already provoking my demon clan, do you know?" Hu Shan plucked up his courage and shouted at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen was unmoved by Hu Shan's words, and said to Hu Shan in a cold voice: "I say it again, I want to see the Demon Emperor!"
Hu Shan suddenly sweated like rain, and hurriedly said: "It's useless for you to scare me like this! His Majesty the Demon Emperor is really not in the Demon Emperor Palace!"
"Then when is she coming back, don't tell me you don't know!" Gu Chen said with a vicious glaring at Hu Shan.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow night at most, Your Majesty will definitely return!" Hu Shan hurriedly said.
"Okay, I'll wait another day, if she doesn't see me tomorrow, the consequences, you know!" Gu Chen pushed Hu Shan away and said coldly.
When Gu Chen showed his momentum, the three of the Nether Python Clan's Youlan, Ghost, and Phantom quickly came to the main hall.
Seeing that Gu Chen didn't give face to the prime minister of the demon clan at all, the three of them were shocked beyond measure, originally the three of them thought that after officially joining the demon empire, they would complain to the demon emperor about Gu Chen's atrocities, but now they were completely dumbfounded by this scene, Gu Chen was not afraid of the demon emperor at all!
Yu Qing was half-lying on the soft collapse and smiling to see a good show, he had long seen that Hu Shan was not pleasing to the eye, but Gu Chen was mad just as he wanted! Because Yu Qing believed that even if Gu Chen fell out with the demon clan, there was no need to be afraid at all, and the corpse ancestor Yu Qing was never a person who was afraid of things.
At this time, a large group of Praetorian Guards broke into the hall, led by none other than the current Praetorian Guard commander - Tiger Idiot!
The tiger idiot looked at Gu Chen and the others with a cautious face, and then asked Hu Shan, "Prime Minister, what happened?"
Hu Shan hurriedly turned around, waved his hand at the tiger idiot and said, "It's okay, it's okay, everything is a misunderstanding, the tiger idiot general quickly evacuate the people! Don't disturb the rest of the distinguished guests!"
The tiger idiot looked at Gu Chen and the others with some hesitation.
Seeing this, Hu Shan hurriedly said again: "It's really okay, Sect Master Gu is his own person!"
The tiger idiot nodded, and then waved his hand to the Praetorian Guard behind him and said, "It's okay, all go to their places!"
"Yes, Commander!" the Praetorian Guards retreated in an orderly manner.
After the tiger idiot and the Praetorian Guards retreated, Gu Chen restrained his momentum, his expression eased, and he said to Hu Shan apologetically: "I'm sorry, Prime Minister Hu, I'm too excited!
"It's okay, it's okay, Sect Master Gu has a great favor to my demon clan, how can the old man blame Sect Leader Gu for such a trivial matter!" Hu Shan hurriedly waved his hand and said.
Gu Chen nodded, and then said to Hu Shan: "This seat wants to be quiet, Prime Minister Hu Cheng, please go back!"
"In that case, the old decay will retire!" Hu Shan said to Gu Chen.
