Shocked, frightened!

At this moment, Hou Peng's heart was already completely filled with these two feelings, and when he stood still, his eyes were locked on the slender figure like a cowbell.

Not only him, but even Liu Xuan and Duan Tianbo were dumbfounded, unable to figure out why there was such a large amount of energy in such a thin body.

"Obediently, that guy Hou Peng is a powerhouse in the late stage of the first order of the Ancestral Puppet Realm, even if he is not the strongest in the Bright Sun Royal Academy, at least he can be ranked in the top five, he was punched by him, what is this guy cultivating this year." ”

Duan Tianbo recovered from the shock, his eyes flashed rapidly, and his heart had already set off a shock. In comparison, Liu Xuan, who came over, was much calmer.

is still the same frosty face that has not changed for thousands of years, and only the occasional flash of amazement in her beautiful eyes shows that her heart is also extremely uncalm.

"Whew, the strength is really not small. ”

On the side, Gu Chen shook his slightly numb arm and rubbed the tip of his nose, revealing his trademark gentle smile. At this moment, where does he still have the slightest bit of fierceness before, completely a gentle and kind big boy.

Hou Peng's face was calm, and his face became more and more vigilant.

"I'm going to wait and then I'm leaving, what's the hurry? I just wanted to ask you something. Gu Chen held his mouth lightly.

"What do you want to know?" Hou Peng replied in a deep voice.

Now he already regards Gu Chen as an opponent of the same level, and he doesn't dare to despise it in the slightest. You must know that if Liu Xuan and Duan Tianbo are added, he is not sure that he will be able to escape from this person safely.

"What do you want to know?"

"It's simple. Gu Chen said lightly: "Presumably, Your Excellency has also heard about what has happened in my Haotian Academy these days. ”

Hou Peng nodded, indicating acquiescence.

"That's good, it just so happened that I heard that the last person my senior brother Xin Youtian pursued before he disappeared happened to be someone from your Radiant Royal Academy, so I want to ask, how is that brother doing lately?" Gu Chen said.

"Hmm, what do you mean?" Hou Peng's face suddenly changed when he heard this. In fact, he didn't know what the former meant, but this kind of thing was really important, especially when it involved the two major colleges. If Shin Youtian's disappearance was related to his Bright Sun Royal Academy, what would happen next was something that even he couldn't imagine.

"Huh...... Don't worry, I'm just going to die casually, I don't know if Senior Brother Hou Peng is not with the situation of the senior brother. ”

While speaking, Gu Chen walked towards Hou Peng, and the invisible oppressive force unfolded, although only the peak of the Emperor Puppet Realm reached my strength, but because of the punch just now, it also made Hou Peng more vigilant.

"Hmph...... I know what you're thinking, but unfortunately, Nobuyuten's disappearance has nothing to do with my Royal Academy of Flare. Hou Peng said in a cold voice, "Yes, Xin Youtian did chase and kill my Senior Brother Qin Lie at that time, but my Senior Brother had already been injured that day, and his injuries were all due to the You Tian Jue of Xin Youtian." ”

"We haven't troubled you yet, but you first suspected my Senior Brother Qin Lie. ”

"Oh, you're back, and you've been injured by Xin Youtian?" Gu Chen secretly chuckled in his heart, he immediately threw an inquiring look at Liu Xuan and Duan Tianbo, and only when he got the latter's affirmative answer did he believe what Hou Peng said.

If this is the case, that Qin Lie's suspicion has been reduced a lot, although it cannot be completely ruled out, but at least it is no longer the key.

Gu Chen thought to himself secretly, then looked up at Hou Peng, and smiled again: "Hehe, where did Senior Brother Hou Peng say, where would I suspect the people of the Brother Academy, I just want to know some details, since that Senior Brother Qin Lie returned safely, I will be relieved." ”

"Hmph!" Hou Peng snorted coldly again, although this was said beautifully, anyone could hear the meaning, and if he said this, it was a bit of a snake to add to it.

"If nothing else, I'll take my leave. After a moment of silence, Hou Peng immediately clenched his fists and said coldly.

"Oh, hehe, Senior Brother Hou Peng, please. In the future, I will have the opportunity to talk to my senior brother for a long time. Gu Chen said with a smile.

"Heh, there's going to be a chance. ”

Throwing down this sentence, Hou Peng glanced at Liu Xuan, who was silent on the side, and jumped forward, turning into a rainbow and heading straight to the base camp of the Fourth Courtyard.

......

"Do you think something is wrong with the people from their academy?"

After Hou Peng left, Liu Xuan slowly opened her eyes and asked.

"I have this idea, but looking at Hou Peng's appearance, it doesn't look like he's hiding anything, and that Qin Lie is probably not as we think. Gu Chen lowered his voice and said, a pair of blue pupils flashing deep in the depths, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Not necessarily, Boss You Tian was indeed chasing that Qin Lie at that time, maybe in order not to attract attention, he said that it was not necessary to return to the Bright Sun Royal Academy after he was tempted. Duan Tianbo on the side also subconsciously analyzed.

Gu Chen glanced at him and said, "Now it's obvious that this is a trap that someone has deliberately set against our Haotian Academy, and this treasure place you are talking about is the best proof of this." Unless you find the three of them, it will be difficult to find out the secret master. ”

"Then what should we do now?" asked Liu Xuan, who had obviously completely regarded Gu Chen as the one in charge.

Gu Chen lowered his head and thought about it, then suddenly turned his gaze to Duan Tianbo and said, "At that time, you were at the scene, what was the direction of Xin Youtian when he chased Qin Lie, you should know it." ”

Duan Tianbo hurriedly nodded, raised his hand and pointed to the west of the depression, "That's the direction, I also followed and chased for a while at that time, but I didn't follow because I was injured." ”

Following the direction of his finger, Gu Chen looked out, as far as the eye could see, after crossing the extreme west of the depression, there was a slightly lower hill, and then after that, there were patches of black and oppressive forests, and the sky above the forest was filled with miasma, and it looked like it was actually tight.

That forest was obviously out of the scope of the Puppet Mountain Seal, and it was a truly extremely dangerous place.

"Let's go, let's take a look, maybe there's something you find. ”

Gu Chen opened his mouth to speak, and immediately when Liu Xuan and Duan Tianbo had no objection, the three of them immediately spread their bodies and galloped towards the west.

At this time, they moved forward again, and they also had a tacit understanding that they did not choose to fly, but shuttled between the rocks and the dense forest. In this way, you can avoid the eyes of other academies to prevent being targeted by spirit beasts hidden in the shadows, and secondly, you can also look for some clues in more detail......

All the way to the west, there was nothing to be found in the hollow except for the jagged rocks. Immediately after passing through the hollow, they came to the hill.

This hill may not seem majestic from a distance, but when it is displayed in front of you, it is also huge and tight. The entire mountain is covered with dense towering trees. Occasionally, light shone through the gaps in the leaves, but when the breeze blew, it disappeared again.

There was a chill in the air.

"This is the most dangerous place in the Puppet Mountain, it is said that there are also a lot of heavy treasures hidden in it, but there are also a lot of spirit beasts, even if you enter it, most of them are accompanied by five puppet masters. ”

Standing at the edge of the dense forest, Liu Xuan felt the bloodthirsty coldness in the air, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. In fact, even she was visiting this place for the first time.

"Oh, then, when we look for them, we can go back with some treasures. Gu Chen rubbed the tip of his nose and smiled. It's completely relaxed.

“......”

Hearing this, Liu Xuan directly shook him with a roll of the eyes, and the latter could only smile.

And just as the two were talking, Duan Tianbo suddenly shouted, which immediately attracted the two of them to follow the prestige.

"Come and take a look, this thing seems to be the boss of Youtian, right?"

Gu Chen and Liu Xuan hurriedly dodged over. At this time, where Duan Tianbo was standing, a yellow jade pendant was quietly hanging on the branch of a big tree.

The branch was about two meters from the ground, and it was the transplanted tree at the bottom of the whole tree.

"Sort of. ”

Liu Xuan frowned and nodded, and then saw her five fingers and claws, and as soon as she grabbed the void, a steep suction force suddenly erupted from the heart of the claw.

Syllable!

The jade pendant flew back upside down, and was directly clawed by Liu Xuan in the palm of her hand.

"Well, it's indeed his jade pendant, this thing has always been carried by him. ”

Liu Xuan said, and then handed the jade pendant to Gu Chen.

Holding this crystal clear golden topaz pendant, the delicate letter on it immediately attracted Gu Chen's attention. This should be a family token that belongs to a large family. From this point of view, the background of Xinyoutian should not be low.

And when he turned the jade pendant to the back, a little emerald green mark suddenly appeared in the center of the jade pendant, which made him stunned again. He vaguely remembered where he had seen such green marks.

"What is this?"

At the same time, Liu Xuan also noticed the unusual green mark, and couldn't help but ask.

"It's beast blood, and it's the blood of a spirit beast with extremely strong strength. Gu Chen said coldly. He suddenly recalled that at the bottom of the Mixed Spirit Pool in the Underground Courtyard, those Abyssal Pythons were bleeding with blood of this color.

When he returned to the underground, he also deliberately smelled the drunkard, who said at that time that only the most evil things, and the spirit beast that contains a lot of dead qi in the body, will have this color in the blood, and the stronger the strength, the more thorough the green is also green.

Judging from the remnant blood on the jade pendant, the strength of the spirit beast that fought against Xin Youtian was at least equivalent to that of an ancestral puppet realm level puppeteer.

"It seems that Xin Youtian should have met a very powerful spirit beast, but I always feel that it is too strange for Yu Pei to appear here. Gu Chen analyzed truthfully.

"Why?" asked Liu Xuan.

Gu Chen pointed to the location of the branch and said, "Look, the branch is only about two meters above the ground, if we meet an extremely powerful spirit beast, what should be the habitual way of fighting?"

Liu Xuan groaned, according to normal speaking, the size of the spirit beasts that reached this level of strength was particularly huge, and the general puppet master would also choose to fight at high altitudes, because flying spirit beasts were a minority after all. However, it is at a height of two meters, and there are no obvious traces of trampling around, so it stands to reason that Xin Youtian should not have dropped such an important jade pendant here.

And things like this kind of family tokens are all connected to the puppeteer's puppet power, and once they are accidentally dropped, they will be found at the time, and there will be no possibility of loss.

As soon as she thought of this, a flash of surprise suddenly flashed in Liu Xuanmei's eyes, she stared at Gu Chen fiercely, and exclaimed without blinking: "You mean, someone deliberately put the jade pendant here in order to lure us into the trap?"
