True Lord Gu Yue saw Lu Chen's actions and heard his calm and polite invitation, but he didn't move immediately. After sizing up Lu Chen, he didn't even respond to Lu Chen. Instead, he frowned slightly and raised his head to look at True Lord Tian Lan.
It was as if he didn't see Lu Chen as a person, or perhaps he felt that Lu Chen wasn't qualified to speak to him?
Lu Chen stood there silently. His expression didn't change, and he wasn't angry at True Lord Gu Yue's disrespect.
True Lord Gu Yue looked at True Lord Tian Lan. Although he didn't say anything, his expression was very angry. He probably felt that they were both Soul Formation True Lords, so he couldn't dismiss him so easily.
However, behind that angry expression, a trace of surprise and doubt flashed across the depths of his eyes. At this distance, only True Lord Tian Lan could see the extremely secretive hint of inquiry in his eyes.
True Lord Tian Lan ignored it and waved his hand impatiently. "Old geezers are always meddlesome. I don't have the patience to accompany you down. There are many things on this mountain! Lu Chen is my disciple. Letting him take you down is already giving you a lot of face. "
With that, he waved his sleeve and snorted coldly, looking very disdainful of True Lord Gu Yue.
The atmosphere between the two of them immediately became tense, causing the surrounding guards to turn pale with fright.
True Lord Gu Yue kept staring at True Lord Tian Lan's eyes, as if he could see something from this damned baldy's eyes. After a while, he nodded as if he knew the answer he wanted. He sneered and said to Lu Chen indifferently, "Lead the way."
…
Lu Chen was the first to jump into the tunnel. He was no stranger to this place as he had come here many times. Just as he was about to turn around and wait for Gu Yue True Monarch, he felt a blur in front of him and the True Monarch's figure had already appeared behind him.
Even with Lu Chen's current cultivation, he couldn't see True Lord Gu Yue's movements clearly.
Lu Chen's heart trembled slightly, but his expression didn't change. He nodded to True Lord Gu Yue and was about to ask him to come with him. However, True Lord Gu Yue had already strode forward and said, "Let's go. I've been here many times and know what I'm doing."
Lu Chen knew that he was speaking the truth. Back then, True Lord Tian Lan True Lord Gu Yue Gu Yue had invited people from Star Hall to work in this underground cave. He had seen True Lord Gu Yue many times in this underground city. But now, if he didn't guess wrongly, this place should have been marked as a forbidden zone. Even the people from Fuyunji couldn't enter easily. In other words, in the houses near the strange statue, the bloody scene could still be there.
True Lord Gu Yue came down to find trouble. Lu Chen probably knew a little about it. Of course, he didn't dare to let True Lord Gu Yue casually discover the crime scene. However, True Lord Gu Yue didn't seem to give Lu Chen any room to dissuade him. After saying that, he continued walking without any hesitation.
Lu Chen was a little anxious. He secretly scolded Baldy a few more times. Just now, he couldn't communicate with Baldy in a hurry. Suddenly, he ordered him to come down. Lu Chen had no idea what he wanted to do.
As they walked, the strange blood moon's light shone down and shone on the two of them. Lu Chen looked up and felt that his body was a little heavy. It seemed that the blood moon seemed to have changed. It seemed to have expanded a lot and the light was also much stronger. But he didn't know if it was directly related to the blood sea in the sky outside.
True Lord Gu Yue also looked up at the blood moon in the sky. His face didn't change, but a trace of worry flashed in the depths of his eyes. Then, he walked towards the center of the underground city.
Lu Chen followed behind him and was secretly anxious. The house where the accident happened was near the statue. If they walked over like this, with True Lord Gu Yue's skills, he would almost definitely find out that something was wrong. Just as he was racking his brains to think of a way to solve this problem and lead Gu Yue Perfected Monarch astray, he suddenly heard Gu Yue Perfected Monarch, who was walking in front of him, say: "Your master trusts you very much."
"En?" When Lu Chen heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't really understand what this True Lord meant. But then he still nodded and said, "Thank you Master Gu Yue for your praise. My master's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain. I have always …"
"He rarely, no, he has never trusted a young person like this." True Lord Gu Yue interrupted Lu Chen's words. He stopped and turned to look at Lu Chen. "This is a rare fate. It is also a great opportunity. You must cherish it."
Lu Chen was stunned again. At this moment, he could obviously feel that there seemed to be some unfinished meaning in this True Lord's words. He pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, "Master Gu Yue is right. I will remember it. But, why did you suddenly mention this … "
True Lord Gu Yue smiled and didn't explain further. He turned and continued to walk forward, with the demeanor of a mysterious expert.
Lu Chen felt a little helpless about this. The doubts in his heart grew heavier. In the end, he could only follow.
In this huge underground city, it was quiet and empty. Only the two of them were walking here, and even the sound of their footsteps was especially clear.
Seeing that the strange statue in the center was getting closer and closer to the murder case house, Lu Chen became a little anxious. At this moment, he suddenly heard True Lord Gu Yue say, "Do you know why Tian Lan refused to come down himself and wanted you to accompany me down here?"
Lu Chen was silent for a moment and said, "Probably because he doesn't like you."
True Lord Gu Yue looked at him and suddenly laughed out loud. She nodded and said, "You are a little interesting."
Amidst the laughter, they just happened to walk past the house. It seemed like Gu Yue True Monarch's attention was diverted by Lu Chen's sudden words. Who knew that when he reached the door, he turned around and without any hesitation, walked into the house naturally and straightforwardly.
Lu Chen's face changed and his heart sank.
True Lord Gu Yue stood at the door and even turned back to wave at him. She said calmly, "Come, let's go in and take a look."
Lu Chen took a deep breath and tried hard to calm his racing heart. He then walked over.
Real Lord Gu Yue walked in front with his hands behind his back, his eyes gazing at the unknown ahead. Walking leisurely, he said, "Many years ago, Tian Lan once told me that he was prepared to spend the rest of his life alone, with no children, no disciples, no worries. I think this is the reason why he is unruly and does things according to his heart. Perhaps it is because of this that he was able to build such a grand foundation, doing what we old men could not do in our lifetime."
Lu Chen listened quietly. At the same time, he smelled a bloody smell. It seemed that in a short period of time, the traces would not completely disappear.
"But now he actually accepted you as a disciple and values you so much. Maybe he wanted you to accompany me to let me understand this." True Monarch Gu Yue walked in front of him and stopped when he was about to enter the backyard. From his voice, it could be heard that there was a hint of sorrow.
"But I am a little worried. If he has worries, will it affect the big things he wants to do? You have to know that all the things he succeeded in the past were done without burdens. "
True Lord Gu Yue slowly turned around and looked at Lu Chen, staring at him.
Lu Chen's heart suddenly jumped. He forced a smile and said, "What do you mean by this?"
True Lord Gu Yue was silent for a moment and then said calmly, "I am thinking that this matter is very important. Should I go and help this old friend?"
