"What do you mean? Looking at you, there seems to be something I don't know. "Old Ma looked at Lu Chen and asked with a smile.
Lu Chen waved his hand. He was about to speak but quickly shut his mouth. After a moment of silence, he changed the topic and said, "You just said that Gu Yue Perfected's second disciple Feng Hen is close to our Fuyunji side. Is he also married to someone like the eldest disciple Feng Ze?"
Old Ma thought for a moment and said, "I haven't heard of this. In fact, although Feng Ze's Taoist companion is a female cultivator from the Heavenly Law Hall, she doesn't usually do anything excessive. After all, Feng Ze is the disciple of a Huashen Perfected. It's just that with this layer of relationship, once there is something related to interests, Feng Ze will naturally be biased towards the Heavenly Law Hall. This is also human nature. "
Speaking of this, Old Ma smiled and said, "But this is too much, and it is easy to be criticized. Look at the second disciple Feng Hen over there, he has nothing to do with our Fuyunji. Our means are still more clever. "
"Clever my ass!" Lu Chen sneered and said, "Since you said it so directly, he is on our side. Obviously, the outside world probably thinks so too. In this case, what's the use of talking nonsense without clear evidence? Do you think that Gu Yue Perfected, a high and mighty Huashen Perfected, will care if you have evidence or not? "
There are many things in this world that need to be reasonable, and this is also the use of the so-called justice of heaven. However, there are also some people who are too powerful, such as Tianlan and Gu Yue. Generally speaking, if there is no evidence, then there is no evidence. It's just that he doesn't like you …
If he really didn't like you, he could still kill you without any evidence. Even if he didn't do it because he had some scruples and didn't do it, it was definitely not because he was worried about something like reason or evidence. Instead, he felt that there would be all kinds of chain reactions after he did it. For example, his subordinates would become disloyal, worried, afraid, or have greater achievements to consider. What made them endure it was the most important thing.
Of course, Old Ma also understood this, so he was a little embarrassed when he was ridiculed by Lu Chen. He smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, it's not necessarily true that he colluded with Fuyunji. It's nothing more than that he is biased towards us on some matters. To be honest, with Fuyunji's current reputation and the Starry Temple's recent achievements, we really don't need to curry favor with them. "
This was the truth, so Lu Chen nodded and admitted it. However, as long as he thought about the rumor that Gu Yue Perfected had accepted five disciples who actually colluded with the other five mountain forces of Zhenxianmeng, it was really an incredible thing. Moreover, apart from the Starry Temple, the other Great Deity Perfected's subordinates had never encountered such a situation.
Lu Chen's heart moved slightly, but he thought to himself that no one who could set foot in the Huashen Realm was stupid. All of them were smart people. Even if they were not that shocking perverted lunatic like the damn baldy, Lu Chen would not believe that any Huashen Realm Perfected was not scheming enough.
That Gu Yue Perfected could actually tolerate such a mess of his disciples, and could also tolerate the existence of such rumors that were actually a slap in his face. He always felt that it was unusual and seemed to have a deeper meaning …
…
While thinking, Lu Chen suddenly heard Old Ma's question from the side, "What's the matter?"
Lu Chen was startled and turned to look, only to see that Old Ma had unknowingly taken two steps forward and stood in front of him, looking at a man walking on the road in front of him.
Lu Chen glanced at the man and found that it was also a familiar face, but it was one of Xue Ying's trusted subordinates that he had seen in Fuyunji before.
The man walked closer, his expression was calm, first bowed to Lu Chen, then said, "My Hall Master ordered me to find young master Lu Chen, and to pass a message, that the Lord Perfected wants to see you, please go to the Kunlun Temple as soon as possible."
Old Ma turned to look at Lu Chen, Lu Chen also had a surprised expression on his face, but he quickly calmed down, nodded and said, "Okay, I will go immediately."
The man smiled, bowed again, and went straight away. From beginning to end, he was polite, but in the eyes of Lu Chen and Old Ma, there was a sense of alienation from him.
After waiting for a while, when the man walked far away, Lu Chen suddenly said, "That man just now didn't like me, did he?"
Old Ma rolled his eyes and said snappily, "How would I know, he was so polite to you, it's good enough. Look, he probably didn't even look at me."
Lu Chen laughed, walked over and patted Old Ma's shoulder, and the two turned and began to walk in the direction of the Kunlun Temple.
There were some things that Old Ma didn't say, and neither did Lu Chen, but they both understood. For the Floating Clouds Division that was currently like the midday sun, the two of them could actually be considered lucky people. They were people who had suddenly soared up from the bottom of the hierarchy.
Of course, there was also a difference between the two of them. After all, Lu Chen was chosen by Perfected Lord Tianlan, and he was publicly accepted as a disciple. In the Fuyunji system, Perfected Lord Tianlan had supreme authority, and everyone had to look up to him, so Lu Chen was "forced" to be respected.
However, Old Ma was different. He had no identity, no background, and his cultivation was not high. He had been in Fuyunji for many years, but he had never been famous, even though he had to live incognito to protect the secret of the shadow, Lu Chen. Nowadays, in the eyes of many people, Old Ma relied on Lu Chen to climb up from a nobody. He had no ability and no credit, and he was always a follower of Lu Chen, enjoying a good life, but his status was still extremely high. It should be known that Lu Chen had a chance to inherit the entire foundation of Perfected Lord Tianlan in the future, so the trusted follower of him was very unpleasant to the eyes.
Lu Chen did not speak again, and Old Ma did not complain anymore. They just walked forward together.
Many years ago, when they were still in Qingshuitang Village, they looked like old friends who had a deep friendship and often joked with each other. However, on this day, as they walked together, Old Ma had unknowingly become someone who was one step behind Lu Chen.
They were silent, and no one spoke for a long time.
They no longer looked like friends, but more like a boss and a subordinate.
Or, to put it more bluntly and harshly, like a master and a servant.
When did this happen, and when did it become like this?
They walked in silence all the way, and finally, they reached the majestic Kunlun Hall. Lu Chen stopped, and Old Ma quickly stopped behind him.
Lu Chen did not turn back, but when he looked at the majestic hall in front of him, he suddenly said, "Someone is making things difficult for you?"
"Not yet," said Old Ma.
"You sound like you're a little worried?"
Old Ma said, "I'm not just worried, I'm scared to death."
Lu Chen's body trembled slightly, and he finally turned back to look at him. Old Ma sighed and said, "I always feel that I can only be at ease when I'm with you every day. Other times, I don't even dare to sleep."
The muscles on Lu Chen's face twitched slightly.
