Ah Bu listened to Huang Fuchen the most, whether it was before or now. Although she didn't like Ye Zhen, because Huang Fuchen had spoken, she withdrew her sword and obediently stood beside Huang Fuchen.
This was the first time Huang Fuchen had seen Ah Bu show such a look. It was sharp, fierce, and full of aggression. She seemed to have changed into a different person, no longer timid and timid. She might kill Ye Zhen in the next moment.
"This is the Ah Bu I've seen before," Fanfan whispered. To be honest, she had never seen Ah Bu's timid appearance before. It felt awkward no matter how she looked at it.
She had seen Ah Bu kill the Immortal Generals with her own hands. Her ruthlessness was probably even worse than that of a man.
"Where is Guan Jie?" Ye Zhen asked. There was no need to ask whether Ah Bu was a great monster from the ancient times. The answer was obvious. Neither Woo Sheng nor Fanfan would recognize the wrong person.
However, where did she take Guan Jie? If Guan Jie was Wen Tian, why would Ah Bu stay with Huang Fuchen?
"Ah Bu, is what they said true? Did you catch Guan Jie? " Huang Fuchen asked. Although he knew that Ah Bu was the monster they were talking about, he didn't feel afraid in his heart because he knew very well that Ah Bu would not hurt him. If she would hurt him, she would have killed him long ago after they had been together for so many years.
At least, Ah Bu was kind to him.
He couldn't be estranged from her because of her identity or even delay her.
Ah Bu glanced at Huang Fuchen and just shook her head gently without saying a word.
"Did you not catch him, or are you unwilling to say?" Huang Fuchen asked.
"We saw her take Guan Jie with our own eyes." Fire Phoenix said.
Ah Bu just looked up at Huang Fuchen, pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
"What is your purpose?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice. "Guan Jie may not be the person you are looking for."
"Yao Yao, let me ask her. She can't speak." Huang Fuchen whispered.
Ye Zhen shook her head and smiled. Huang Fuchen didn't know Ah Bu at all. They had been together for so many years, but he didn't know that she was not mute.
"The mermaid is not mute. She can speak, but she never speaks." Ye Zhen said.
Huang Fuchen was stunned and looked at Ah Bu in surprise. "Is it true?"
Ah 'Bu's expression was cold as he stubbornly turned his face away, still refusing to speak.
"Release the Gatekeeper Ring first." Ye Zhen said that she felt that it was impossible to find out Wen Tian's secret from Ah Bu's mouth. She would not say it, but she didn't know where Guan Jie was now. At least she had to rescue him first.
Regardless of whether Guan Jie was Wen Tian or not, he had yet to awaken, which meant that he was still a mortal.
"No?" Huang Fuchen frowned at her.
Wo Sheng did not ask about it. He felt that he must have made a mistake somewhere.
Ah Bu took Guan Jie away, but he still stayed by Huang Fuchen's side. He had a feeling that this mortal was the most closely related to the Great Lord.
However, not only did he not look like the Great Lord, but his aura was also completely different. He could not identify Huangfu Chen at all.
"Just what is the meaning of this? Your identity has already been exposed, yet you still refuse to release the Guan Ring." Fire Phoenix said in a bad mood.
Ye Zhen looked at Wo Sheng. She felt that there must be a reason for Ah Bu 'er's actions, but she couldn't guess what it was.
"Ah Bu, where is the Gatekeeper Ring?" Huang Fuchen asked again.
Ah Bu turned her face indifferently, making it clear that she would not hand over the Gatekeeper Ring.
"Even if you are a monster, it makes no difference to me, but you can't hurt people." Huang Fuchen softened his tone. "Release the Gatekeeper Ring."
Ye Zhen looked at Ah Bu's young and immature face. She used to think that Ah Bu was just a little girl who had not yet grown up. She did not expect that she was a mermaid who had lived for tens of thousands of years. No, she heard that she was not only a monster, but also a demigod and demigod. Her father was from the ninth heaven. It was because he had a relationship with a mermaid that the mermaid race was exterminated.
It would not be easy for Ah Bu to hand over the Gatekeeper Ring. There must be a reason why she took it away.
This reason may have something to do with Huang Fuchen.
Guan Jie and Huang Fuchen … What do they have to do with Wen Tian?
"Forget it if she doesn't want to say." Ye Zhen said lightly. "Master, I want to trouble you with one more thing."
Huang Fuchen was also a little annoyed with Ah Bu. He had been with her for so long, but he did not see that she had been pretending to be timid.
Hearing Ye Zhen's words, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart and asked in a low voice, "What is it?"
"I want to go to the imperial palace in Northern Border City. Can you accompany us?" Ye Zhen asked. From the corner of her eyes, she saw Ah Bu frowning. Obviously, she did not want Huang Fuchen to leave with her.
Huang Fuchen asked, "Are you going to find Qi Yu?"
"Not really," Ye Zhen said. "I heard that an underwater palace has appeared in Northern Border City. I don't know if it has anything to do with the person I'm looking for, so I want to go and have a look."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Huang Fuchen agreed without hesitation. How could he not see that Ye Zhen was testing Ah Bu? He was also angry that Ah Bu had lied to him for so many years and still refused to tell the truth.
Ah Bu looked at him anxiously, pulled his sleeve hard, and kept shaking her head, not wanting to let him go.
"There's no time to lose. Let's go now." Ming Xi said, not giving Ah Bu a chance to keep Huang Fuchen.
"Are you coming with us?" Huang Fuchen asked Ah Bu. "If you don't want to leave, then stay here and wait for me to come back."
She didn't want Huangfu Chen to be with Ye Zhen. This woman was an ominous person who would only harm others, regardless of whether it was in her past or present life. She would only bring harm to others.
Ye Zhen's face was equally cold. She must force Ah Bu to tell the truth.
Even if she didn't say it now, there would always be a time when she would.
"Let's go, sir." Ming Xi urged.
Huang Fuchen glanced at Ah Bu. "Okay."
Ah Bu had no choice but to follow closely behind him. How could she rest assured that Huang Fuchen would leave with them alone?
Wu Sheng and Fanfan glanced at each other, and in their hearts, they were more certain that Huang Fuchen's identity was not that simple. Otherwise, Ah Bu would not be so worried about him.
Ye Zhen did not ask Ah Bu to hand over the Guan Ring again. Anyway, she would not hand it over, nor would she hide it in the bamboo house. When the time came, she would definitely release it.
She believed that Ah Bu did not capture the Guan Ring just to lock it up.
"Where is Mo Rongzhan?" After boarding the ship, Huang Fuchen remembered that he did not see Mo Rongzhan.
Ye Zhen looked lonely and forced a smile. "He went to the Desolate Hell."
Ah Bu frowned when she heard this.
"When will he come back?" Huang Fuchen asked.
"I don't know." Ye Zhen smiled. "I sent him a letter, but there has been no reply."
Huang Fuchen was silent when he heard this. He didn't quite understand how Ye Zhen sent a letter to Mo Rongzhan, but he knew that both Mo Rongzhan and Ye Zhen had experienced unimaginable things to come to this day.
He wanted to know what had happened to the Central Plains.
