Gu Zheng was not a human in this world, but he was still a human in fact. Of course, he would not allow some evil spirits to destroy the order of the entire human race. It was fine if he didn't know about it, but since it happened around him, it was impossible for him not to ask.
"Well, it should be traced back to the Goblin War." Bei Chen took a deep breath. As soon as he opened his mouth, Gu Zheng was shocked, but he didn't interrupt, but listened quietly.
With Bei Chen's tireless explanation, Gu Zheng roughly understood some things.
In fact, it was called the Goblin War, but it was actually a team belonging to the Heavenly Court at that time. They directly escaped in a battle. In order not to be held accountable, they directly led the team at that time and hid directly.
They hid for tens of thousands of years until the power of the Heavenly Court completely dissipated. Then they dared to come out. As a result, it happened to be the revival of the human race. They were not mentally prepared. Although they restrained themselves a lot, they were not merciful to the human race.
It was like slaughtering some humans. As a result, some human cultivators spontaneously gathered and gave them a head-on blow, letting them know that this world was no longer a place where they could be rampant.
They were lucky enough to escape from the encirclement of the human race. Since then, they had been scattered. One of them hid in the Beise Mountain Range.
But this team still didn't give up. They were reluctant to give up the cultivation bonus brought by the qi and blood of the human race. Relying on the intricacy of the Beise Mountain Range, they secretly went to capture some humans. Moreover, this was a remote area where there were relatively few masters. They actually lived a comfortable life.
But some of them, because they had seen through this world, knew that doing so would bring disaster to them sooner or later, so they directly left there. Anyway, no one would ask them, and no one would care about them.
But the good times didn't last long. What they did was still exposed, attracting human masters to gather here. However, the power here was not comparable to the prosperous area. But there were not many Goblin left. After a few battles, those Goblin were directly sealed.
Some other human cultivators wouldn't come specially for these two or three kittens, so the human cultivators here spontaneously formed a small alliance. The main purpose was to clean up some monsters in the Beise Mountain Range and resist the monsters that came from other places to protect this pure land.
Then this Goblin quieted down, but they didn't give up secretly. They just changed their way very cleverly.
After his old friend broke free from the seal, he didn't know how his old friend found out about his hiding place and told him about their new plan. His heart palpitated with eagerness. After all, apart from being able to barely maintain his cultivation here, it was extremely difficult to make any progress.
At this point, Gu Zheng suddenly interrupted and asked..................... How much do you know about the organization that has been secretly protecting.....
"Their new plan is to support some human spokespeople as their puppets and remotely command them. Furthermore, they won't use any demonic means to control them. Furthermore, in order to not expose their existence, they only sent some juniors and rookies to complete this mission. This plan began thousands of years ago," Bei Chen said with a wry smile.
. As for the mysterious organization, I don't know much about it except for the specific people who were invited. But I know that although the number of the other party is small, they are all elites. According to the news we got, they always have one person guarding Feng City. The others are cultivating in seclusion and taking turns to guard. "
"Oh, I didn't expect that there would be someone guarding this small place selflessly. No wonder when I went to the Beise Mountain Range, I didn't perceive many monsters. It seems that most of them are gathered together." Gu Zheng thought in his heart.
Seeing that Gu Zheng didn't speak, Bei Chen continued.
"The purpose of Lan Xing's visit this time is to invite me out of seclusion. The Yi Bird outside is his real body. There is a powerful prince in Feng City. After their efforts, they finally made use of him. Of course, he also knows who is helping him behind the scenes. Every hundred years, they will change their State Preceptor position in the Lanyu Empire for generations." Bei Chen sighed. Through the broken door, he could still see Lan Xing's body lying there.
He didn't know that Lan Xing was not completely dead yet.
"So, you were against their original plan to leave them?" Gu Zheng looked at Bei Chen's eyes and said.
"That's right. Because the Demon Race has already declined, it's impossible for them to truly rise up here. At best, they're just making small fuss and occupying territory to become kings. It's also because of some matters back then that they left that place. Since then, they've been living in seclusion in this dark place."
Bei Chen told the truth. There was no fluctuation in his eyes because everything he said was true.
And he found that Gu Zheng seemed to be a foreigner. It seemed that he had passed through here for some things, but he didn't take a huge risk for this place at all. Bei Chen knew very well how fierce and cruel his companions were.
Then Bei Chen didn't speak anymore. He had said all he could say. He guessed that the other party was not interested in him at all.
"Then do you know the name of your companion?" Gu Zheng thought for a while and suddenly asked.
"I know what you want to do. It's not that I'm lying, but it's useless. Because they're afraid that the Heavenly Court will find them, they've already cut off everything from their past. Usually, it's just a code name or a short name. It's useless." Bei Chen looked at Gu Zheng and Lan Xing's corpse and continued.
"Lan Xing is different. Because of his pride, he's not afraid of the Heavenly Court finding him. Moreover, he has a secret treasure that can isolate others from searching. It's impossible to find his location," Bei Chen explained.
Unfortunately, in the face of Gu Zheng's Mortal Book, any secret treasure was useless unless it was a Connate Numinous Treasure of the same level.
"Yes." Gu Zheng fell into deep thought again. Looking at the other party's solemn expression, it seemed that his companion was really extraordinary.
Thinking about it, it made sense. To be able to obtain a seat in the Ancient Demon Court, he must be an extraordinary person. He was equivalent to an outstanding person among humans.
However, at least there was an organization here. It seemed to be quite strong. At least, they had successfully sealed the other party once. If he couldn't do it, he would give them a warning. He would help as much as he could. The most important thing now was the news of Xue Er and Zhao Man.
"Then how much do you know about that girl? And that human man? "
Bei Chen looked at Gu Zheng in a daze. He didn't know why he was interested in those two people. However, he still thought for a while before speaking.
"I don't know much about those two people. Basically, it's Lan Xing who told me."
"You just have to tell me what you know." Gu Zheng stood up as if he didn't care. He walked to the door and looked at Lan Xing's corpse in the distance. His entire back was exposed, and he didn't take any precautions. It was as if he didn't care that Bei Chen was sneaking up on him from behind.
At such a close distance, Bei Chen felt his heart stir. He could seriously injure the other party before he could react. Then, he could take the opportunity to escape, even if the other party was using the Mortal Book.
However, looking at the other party's confident body, Bei Chen's original intention to struggle was dispelled. Looking at the other party, it seemed that the chances of him surviving if he didn't resist were much higher than the chances of him breaking in.
Many complicated thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. In the end, he said honestly.
"That female demon." Bei Chen frowned when he saw Gu Zheng. He immediately changed his words, "That girl came out of nowhere. She has a lot of hatred and resentment towards Goblin. Coupled with her extraordinary sense of smell, as long as she finds some people with evil thoughts, she will kill them or beat them up violently."
"She holds the ancient bronze sword. It's not mysterious. Even if the opponent is two levels higher than her, he can't win against her. Along the way from the edge to Feng City, at least hundreds of Goblin have died in her hands. She also has a very bad influence on them. However, she is very cunning. It's difficult for the younger Goblin of Bei Si's lineage to catch her. It seems that in the end, they used some tricks and the magic weapon of the elders to catch her."
"As for that human man." Bei Chen thought for a moment, "There's nothing special about him. He was arrested before and then escaped. I only know that he seems to be a couple with that girl. In the last ambush, he suddenly broke out a secret method and escaped alone from the encirclement. However, when he tried to rescue the girl, he lost his weapon on the battlefield."
"That's all I know. It was mentioned by Lan Xing inadvertently. I don't know anything else." At this time, the clever Bei Chen had already understood why those two people had such powerful weapons in their hands. It was probably related to the man in front of him.
Then he stayed in place, looking at Gu Zheng's back without saying a word. The whole scene was quiet for a while.
After half a day, Gu Zheng finally turned around, looked at Bei Chen and said, "Let go of your mind. I haven't figured out how to deal with you yet. You can follow me first."
Gu Zheng originally wanted to give the other party a flaw and let the other party launch a sneak attack so that he could have a chance to eliminate the other party. However, the other party cooperated obediently, which gave Gu Zheng a headache. Gu Zheng was not the kind of person who killed monsters whenever he saw one.
Hearing this, a stone in Bei Chen's heart fell down. He had seen that the other party didn't seem to kill innocent people indiscriminately, so he didn't have any thoughts. It seemed that his decision was correct.
Because he had many magic treasures, most of them were damaged or lost in the long battle. He only had a few, so it could be said that he didn't have the power to resist.
Gu Zheng watched the other party obediently let go of his mind and directly put an imprint in the other party's body. This way, before the other party could remove it, he could make him a cripple with a thought.
"You can follow me in the future. Just be my attendant first." Gu Zheng said indifferently. Two golden lights flew over from the distance. Gu Zheng put away the Human Book and the Judge Pen.
Although it was too embarrassing for a monster in the Jin Xian stage to be treated like a servant, it was better to lose face than to lose one's life.
Bei Chen quickly nodded and stood respectfully behind Gu Zheng.
"Let's go. Introduce yourself along the way."
The two silhouettes disappeared from here once again, heading towards the most powerful empire at an extremely fast speed.
Since Lan Xing said that Xue 'er was on the snowy mountain, whether it was true or not, he had to go.
Bei Chen's body was actually a shell-like creature, but it wasn't the kind that bred pearls. He absorbed the spirit qi of heaven and earth and suddenly opened his spiritual wisdom. He silently practiced until he reached the Celestial Immortal stage. Later, he joined the Heavenly Court and was promoted to Jin Xian.
After a simple understanding of the other party's past, Gu Zheng and Bei Chen left this place. Even if Bei Chen was seriously injured, he could still move on the road.
After more than ten days of rushing at full speed, Gu Zheng and Bei Chen finally arrived at the capital of Lanyu Empire.
The geography of Feng City was not very good. In fact, not far from the west was a mountain range. If there was an enemy, then the situation in the city could be seen at a glance from the mountain range. The other three directions were all plains.
Feng City was surrounded by three satellite cities, which acted as the first layer of protection. Each of these cities was no smaller than the capital of a small kingdom. The total area of Feng City was larger than the total area of the three cities combined. Millions of people were concentrated in these cities.
Of course, Feng City's location was the best. Because on the west of the mountain range, there was a sect that was established together with this country.
The Great Snowy Mountain!
Because the headquarters of the Great Snowy Mountain was set up on a mountain peak slightly behind, it was the highest mountain in the vicinity.
Although it was not known that the Great Snowy Mountain was a sect, its reputation and power could not be compared.
Because it was said that the sect master of the Great Snowy Mountain was a powerful person of the Jin Xian stage, but no one had seen him. Some Celestial Immortal elders took care of it. But the Great Snowy Mountain had always been protecting the Lanyu Empire.
It was just that they usually did not care about things. Only some low-level disciples walked on this continent. There were not many disciples, but each of them was a true heaven's pride. Without excellent qualifications, you could not enter at all.
Some things had been heard from Zhao Man, but now it was Bei Chen who added.
According to him, the current situation was actually formed after the last turmoil. The Great Snowy Mountain was also established by an immortal who yearned for an organization. In fact, the Lanyu Empire was actually protected by him at that time, so it was not seriously damaged and expanded a lot.
But it was strictly forbidden to continue to expand, otherwise, all of these people would be included in the territory of the empire.
Gu Zheng came down with him from far away from Feng City. In his view, the glorious momentum of the Human Clan formed a golden dragon in the sky, roaming and resting in the endless clouds. Even Gu Zheng could not fly in it. His whole body had become an ordinary person, so there was no suppression.
It contained the Joss Flames of the Human Race and the recognition of the Human Race by the Heavens and Earth. Therefore, the more powerful one was, the greater the restriction. However, for the native humans, there was no restriction at all. On the contrary, they would unleash stronger instincts.
Even if Gu Zheng had the ability to kill all of these people with a slap, the punishment that followed would also make him die tragically on the spot. But that dragon was the nemesis of all evil. It would not move at all if you did not attack the royal family and a large area of humans.
Compared to the real flourishing area of the Human Clan, this dragon was still very weak. It was estimated that a peak Grand Luo could destroy it. One should know that the barrier formed by the flourishing area was something that even the Saints did not dare to touch. It was obvious how powerful it was.
Therefore, every time there was a great change in the Human Clan or a special event, those demons and ghosts would take the opportunity to appear. Otherwise, some demons would be relatively small in comparison.
In the city outside, Gu Zheng followed the bustling crowd and walked in. Originally, Gu Zheng wanted to go directly to the Great Snowy Mountain in front of him. But he felt a stir in his heart, as if there was something here that was attracting him. Gu Zheng changed his direction, wanting to see what was causing the stir in his heart.
Just as he entered the city gate, at the place where he had just entered, a man with a gloomy expression walked in.
His scarlet eyes constantly swept around, a familiar scent lingering in the air. It was as if the person he was looking for had passed by here before.
He had been sent here by the captain. After two years of searching and judging, it seemed that he had gotten close to the other party. But in order to be careful, he could not act recklessly like last time.
He had not forgotten his foolish actions last time. If it weren't for the fact that the captain had some matters to attend to and had only sent two people to assist him in monitoring the other party, he would have found a place where he could find the other party.
In the end, he had only found some tattered clothes and things that the other party had left behind by the lake. He had angrily cremated those things. But after he returned, he had been scolded by the captain for the entire day. This time, he had to find the other party and inform the others.
He did not want to fall into the other party's trap again. Thinking of this, he followed the faint traces that he had left behind.
After Gu Zheng and Bei Chen walked for some distance, they stopped in front of a very luxurious building.
A massive golden plaque hung above, sparkling in the sunlight. It was very eye-catching, as if it were afraid that others would not notice this place.
"Lan Xin Trading House."
The entire building occupied a large area. Moreover, there were two fifth-order masters guarding the entrance. It seemed that this auction house had a great deal of influence.
At this time, Gu Zheng could feel that there were many people inside, but he couldn't hear a single sound from the outside.
Gu Zheng turned around and told Bei Chen to wait for him outside. Then, he swaggered in.
After passing through several magnificent halls, Gu Zheng walked towards a large hall. Outside, there was a basic level of protection. Four fifth-order masters were keeping an eye on the surroundings. Even though there was no one around, their vigilance was still very high. There were almost no blind spots, and with the help of the restrictions, it was guaranteed that no one would be able to approach this place.
Of course, all of this was useless to Gu Zheng. After passing through a layer of water curtain-like restrictions, he arrived at the interior. The decorations inside were very luxurious, but Gu Zheng didn't care about them after glancing around.
As soon as he entered, he saw a dense crowd of people. He estimated that there were no less than four or five hundred people here. In addition to the bodyguards, there were nearly a thousand people here. Yet, it still didn't seem crowded. It was clear just how large this place was.
Moreover, it wasn't stuffy or hot, and there was a light breeze in the air.
Gu Zheng stood at the back, mixed in with the group of bodyguards. He looked at the group of rich and powerful people in front of him, desperately scrambling for something. It seemed that they had been here for a long time.
Gu Zheng felt that the thing that caught his attention was likely to be in the backstage waiting to be auctioned. Gu Zheng didn't lack time, so he continued to wait and see what it was.
