At first glance, Gu Lingyao's smile looked very innocent. Coupled with her pure appearance, it would indeed make people think that she was a little girl who had not seen much of the world.
However, if one really thought so, one would be gravely mistaken. It was undeniable that Gu Lingyao was young and looked very innocent. However, under this innocent appearance, Gu Lingyao hid a clever heart.
This little girl had always been clever and quick-witted. Xiao Chen had already experienced this a long time ago. Therefore, even though Gu Lingyao's smile looked very innocent, Xiao Chen did not believe it at all and said with a fake smile, "Don't worry about it, Xiao Chen said," That's right.
"I'm afraid that I'll be the one to lose."
"Is that so? Senior Brother is really humble. Let's go, the banquet is already prepared. Senior Brother Cao He and the rest are already waiting outside the courtyard. "Gu Lingyao said with a smile as she looked at Xiao Chen with bright eyes.
She did not reveal Xiao Chen's identity. However, she was becoming more and more curious about Xiao Chen. She was curious about Xiao Chen's identity, curious about Xiao Chen's appearance, and of course, curious about why Xiao Chen wanted to impersonate Wang Huan.
Gu Lingyao did not care about the whereabouts of the real Wang Huan. Furthermore, with Gu Lingyao's intelligence, how could she not guess that since Xiao Chen had appeared here and impersonated her, the real Wang Huan was most likely dead.
Together with Gu Lingyao and the rest, the five of them quickly arrived at the great hall of the Heavenly Wolf Empire's imperial palace. The grand meeting of the two sects was being held in the Heavenly Wolf Empire this time around. The emperor of the Heavenly Wolf Empire had naturally spent a lot of money to host a grand banquet to welcome the experts from the two sects.
The grand hall was already filled with tables, chairs, and food. At the same time, the people from the two great sects and the Heavenly Wolf Empire were chatting with each other. Laughter could be heard from time to time.
After sizing up the surroundings, Xiao Chen didn't notice Gu Qi and the Sect Master of the Azure Sun Sect. Obviously, the two of them hadn't come to participate in the banquet. As for where they'd gone, it wasn't difficult to guess. Obviously, Gu Qi and the Sect Master of the Azure Sun Sect were accompanied by someone else, and it was the Dao Emperor Realm experts of the Skywolf Empire.
As a Half-saint expert, the Emperor of the Celestial Wolf Empire was not on the same level as Gu Qi because the Emperor of the Celestial Wolf Empire was only at the Dao Master Realm, just like Chu Mu, the Emperor of the Moonless Empire. Above him was the Retired Emperor, who was at the Dao King Realm.
Therefore, Gu Qi and the Sect Master of the Qingyang Sect could only be accompanied by the Retired Emperor of the Heavenly Wolf Empire. Moreover, it was definitely beneficial for the Heavenly Wolf Empire to establish a good relationship with the two sects.
The two Sect Masters weren't present, but all the elders were present. Just as Xiao Chen was sizing up the surroundings, some of the nobles of the Heavenly Wolf Empire took the initiative to surround him.
Xiao Chen's group of five were all elite disciples of the Celestial Equal Sect, and they would definitely become pillars of support for the Celestial Equal Sect in the future. It was even to the extent that it wasn't impossible for them to join the Hallowed Sect to cultivate. So, they naturally didn't dare slight Xiao Chen's group of five.
A few nobles of the Celestial Wolf Empire led their disciples over to Xiao Chen and looked at Xiao Chen as they spoke with friendly smiles on their faces.
"Young friend Wang Huan, you're truly a young hero. After this battle, your name will definitely resound throughout Danyang County."
They'd already found out about Xiao Chen's identity, so they spoke with extreme enthusiasm as soon as they spoke. When he heard this, Xiao Chen's expression was calm as he replied, "Seniors, you're too kind."
"Haha, there's no need to be modest. Come, let's have a drink." When he heard Xiao Chen's words, a white-haired old man laughed heartily as he took the initiative to invite Xiao Chen for a drink.
This banquet actually didn't have any special meaning. It was nothing more than a chance for both sides to get to know each other and for the Celestial Wolf Empire to do their part as a host.
After drinking four or five cups of wine with the nobles of the Celestial Wolf Empire, they naturally introduced their disciples to Xiao Chen.
Based on the combat prowess that Xiao Chen had displayed today, it was obvious that he would achieve great things in the future. Therefore, there was no harm in letting their juniors get to know Xiao Chen now.
Xiao Chen wasn't in the mood to talk nonsense with these guys. He only had one goal, and that was the Bloodwolf King.
So, while he was chatting with the crowd, Xiao Chen's gaze was always on the Bloodwolf King.
In fact, as soon as Xiao Chen entered the hall, he had already seen the Bloodwolf King in a red robe. At this time, he was chatting with an elder of the Qingyang Sect. They were drinking and chatting, bursting into laughter from time to time. It seemed that the two were chatting happily.
Xiao Chen knew very well that in order to rescue his mother, he had to find a way to sneak into the Bloodwolf Palace. But how? The best way was naturally to befriend the Bloodwolf King and let him personally bring him in. In this way, Xiao Chen would have a way to inquire about his mother's whereabouts and then carry out the rescue operation.
He had been thinking about how to get close to the Bloodwolf King. After all, as one of the Four Great Princes of the Celestial Wolf Empire, it was obviously impossible for the Bloodwolf King to take the initiative to greet him. In the eyes of the Bloodwolf King, he had a cultivation of the Dao Master Realm and had a large number of troops. In the eyes of the Bloodwolf King, only the elders with real power in the two sects were worthy of his attention.
As for a junior like Xiao Chen, although he was talented, he was not worthy of the Bloodwolf King's deliberate befriending.
He had to think of a way. Just as Xiao Chen was thinking secretly, Gu Lingyao, who had been observing Xiao Chen's every move, suddenly moved her head close to Xiao Chen's ear and whispered, "Why? Are you very interested in the Bloodwolf King?"
It had to be said that Gu Lingyao was indeed smart. She had guessed this just by his subtle movements.
Hearing Gu Lingyao's words, Xiao Chen did not know how to answer. After all, he could not tell Gu Lingyao about it. However, Gu Lingyao obviously did not intend to get to the bottom of it. At the same time, Xiao Chen did not know that Gu Lingyao had long known that he was not the real Wang Huan. Therefore, all along, Gu Lingyao had guessed that Xiao Chen must have some purpose to use Wang Huan's identity to sneak into the Tianqi Sect.
At this time, Xiao Chen had always been very concerned about the Bloodwolf King. How could the intelligent Gu Lingyao not think that the Bloodwolf King must have a direct relationship with Xiao Chen's actions?
Therefore, before Xiao Chen could speak, Gu Lingyao whispered, "I can introduce you to the Bloodwolf King. Previously, the Bloodwolf King came to the Tianqi Sect a few times. Father did not have time, but I received him a few times."
Gu Lingyao and the Bloodwolf King knew each other. Hearing this, Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback, but he quickly understood. Although Gu Lingyao was also a junior, her identity was different. Her father, Gu Lingyao, was a true Half-saint expert and the Sect Master of the Tianqi Sect. Therefore, the Bloodwolf King naturally would not treat Gu Lingyao as an ordinary junior when he treated her.
