After hearing Gu Lingyao's explanation, Xiao Chen fell into deep thought. He was considering whether he could trust the Tianqi Sect or not.
Gu Lingyao didn't urge Xiao Chen. Of course, although she told Xiao Chen the truth, there were still some things that Gu Lingyao didn't mention. Gu Qi had guessed that Xiao Chen wasn't from the Tianhe Continent. Of course, this was also under Gu Qi's orders. As for why, Gu Lingyao didn't know.
After a long while, Xiao Chen finally made his decision. The reason why he thought for so long wasn't because Xiao Chen was indecisive, but because this matter concerned his mother's safety. Xiao Chen couldn't be careless in the slightest.
Having made his decision, Xiao Chen looked up at Gu Lingyao and said, "Can I trust you?"
"Of course," Gu Lingyao said.
"Okay, then I can join the Tianqi Sect. But before that, I need the Tianqi Sect to help me once," Xiao Chen said directly.
Gu Lingyao wasn't surprised to hear Xiao Chen's words. She had already expected it. With a slight smile, Gu Lingyao said, "Is it about you sneaking into the Tianlang Empire?"
"Yes, my mother is under house arrest by the Blood Wolf King. I want to save her. If the Tianqi Sect is willing to help, then things will be much simpler," Xiao Chen said after hearing Gu Lingyao's words.
Xiao Chen didn't have any resistance to joining the Tianqi Sect. First of all, as one of the two major sects in Danyang County, the cultivation environment of the Tianqi Sect was definitely better than the Royal Academy of the Wuyue Empire. Moreover, the Tianqi Sect had Gu Qi, a half-step Saint. It could be seen that in terms of cultivation environment, the three great empires couldn't catch up to the two major sects.
Moreover, after entering the Tianqi Sect, Xiao Chen would have the qualifications to participate in the selection of the Sage Sects. In this way, he would have the opportunity to enter the Tianfeng Shengzong. Wasn't this the purpose of Xiao Chen coming to the Tianhe Continent? In this way, what reason did Xiao Chen have to refuse?
He wasn't against joining the Celestial Equal Sect. In addition, Xiao Chen thought that if the Celestial Equal Sect was really willing to help, then Gu Qi only needed to say a word and the Blood Wolf King would definitely offend them. After all, Gu Qi was a Half-saint expert. The Blood Wolf King probably had to give him some face.
He already had a plan in mind, but Gu Lingyao soon felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.
Looking at Xiao Chen, Gu Lingyao said, "You want my father to go directly to the Blood Wolf King and ask him for his mother?"
Xiao Chen had already told Gu Lingyao the truth about his mother, and Gu Lingyao quickly guessed that Xiao Chen wanted Gu Qi to ask for his mother. Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded. Seeing this, Gu Lingyao smiled bitterly and helplessly.
"If it were any other time, it would be fine. But now, if you ask my father to ask for her, I'm afraid it will harm your mother instead."
"Hmm? What do you mean? "
"It's very simple. At this time, not only is the Celestial Equal Sect in the Heavenly Wolf Empire, there is also the Qingyang Sect. Just now, you said it yourself that the Blood Wolf King has placed your mother under house arrest. As such, he naturally values your mother very much. If my father asks for her, the Blood Wolf King may be afraid, but will he be willing to obediently release your mother?"
"If it were any other time, the Blood Wolf King might give my father face, but now he definitely won't because the Qingyang Sect is also in the Heavenly Wolf Empire. Think about it, if my father asks for her, but he is unwilling to release her, what will he do?"
"Ask for help from the Qingyang Sect." Hearing Gu Lingyao's words, Xiao Chen also quickly realized the problem and said without hesitation.
Hearing Xiao Chen's answer, Gu Lingyao also nodded slightly to express his agreement. "That's right. When the time comes, the Blood Wolf King will definitely ask the Qingyang Sect for help. In this way, the Qingyang Sect will definitely come forward to stop him. With the Qingyang Sect around, do you think the Blood Wolf King will still give my father face?"
"You should know that the two great sects don't have the final say in Danyang County. Although the two great sects have Sage-level experts, the three great empires have millions of troops. The two great sects have more experts than the three great empires, but the three great empires can also use the number of people. With the lives of millions of warriors as the price, they may not be able to kill a Sage-level expert, but they can definitely cripple or injure him. Therefore, the three great empires and the two great sects are actually equal. It's impossible to make the Blood Wolf King obediently submit. Therefore, the only way is to rescue him secretly."
Gu Lingyao directly rejected Xiao Chen's idea. After her reminder, Xiao Chen also quickly understood that his idea was indeed a little naive. Gu Lingyao was right. The three great empires and the two great sects were equal. In principle, the three great empires were not afraid of the two great sects, but because there was no conflict of interest between the two, no one wanted to provoke the other.
They could only rescue him secretly. Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded slightly. As for Gu Lingyao, she continued to speak.
"But you can rest assured that with us secretly helping you, the success rate is definitely above 80%. Tomorrow, we will go to the residence of the Blood Wolf King. I will help you delay the Blood Wolf King. At that time, you will find an opportunity to leave and find where your mother is imprisoned. This way, it will be much easier to rescue her."
Hearing Gu Lingyao's words, Xiao Chen nodded slightly. With Gu Lingyao delaying the Blood Wolf King, it would be easier for him to carry out the operation.
They could be considered to have had a heart-to-heart talk. In the end, Gu Lingyao took the initiative to extend her hand and smiled at Xiao Chen. "I forgot to say earlier. Welcome to the Tianqi Sect, Junior Brother Xiao Chen."
Looking at Gu Lingyao's pure smile without any impurities, Xiao Chen also extended his hand and gently shook it.
He did not expect things to develop into this situation. But overall, it was still good. At least he had received help from the Tianqi Sect. Furthermore, Gu Qi did not blame him for killing Wang Huan.
Once again, he returned to the Tianqi Sect's encampment with Wang Huan's identity. After a night of silence, early the next morning, Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao rushed to the Blood Wolf Mansion.
They had already discussed with the Blood Wolf King yesterday. Therefore, when Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao arrived at the Blood Wolf Mansion in a carriage, the Blood Wolf King, who received the news, personally went out to welcome them.
As one of the Four Great Princes of the Heavenly Wolf Empire, the Blood Wolf Mansion was indeed magnificent. However, Xiao Chen did not know if it was because of the Blood Wolf King's personality, but before they even entered the Blood Wolf Mansion, he could already feel a murderous aura.
The Blood Wolf King quickly walked out of the courtyard with a warm smile on his face. He laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Miss Gu and Young Master Wang's arrival really brings light to this Prince's mansion. Come, come, this Prince has already ordered the servants to prepare food and wine. There were indeed too many people last night and this Prince did not properly entertain the two of you. Today, this Prince must drink to his heart's content with Miss Gu and Young Master Wang."
As he spoke, the Blood Wolf King warmly invited Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao into the mansion.
