Chapter 97 Meeting King Huai
When they came to the boundary between the inner city and the outer city, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately stopped the carriage, and only after Gu Chen showed his badge did he let it go.

Despite this, the soldier still ordered: "Please leave the city before the curfew."

Gu Chen nodded, indicating that he knew, because his aunt and sister wanted to go shopping, so after entering the inner city, they got off the carriage, and Gu Chen accompanied their mother and daughter to stroll around the inner city.

Seeing the busy traffic in the inner city, the ground paved with blue bricks, and the streets extending in all directions, Xu Qing'e sighed: "I thought the outer city was already good, but compared with the inner city, it is as simple as the countryside."

Gu Qingyan and the maid Xiaoyu on the side couldn't help nodding, obviously agreeing with this sentence very much.

Every building in the inner city is extremely exquisite and exquisite. On both sides of the street, there are endless hawking sounds, and the pedestrians on the street are all dressed in luxurious clothes, either rich or expensive.

Gu Qingyan's beautiful eyes are looking forward to shine, her big agile eyes turn back and forth, she is extremely curious about everything in the inner city, the last time she came to the inner city, she was still very young, and her memory has long been blurred, but There are some vague impressions.

Seeing that it was still early, Gu Chen started to hang out with his aunt, their mother and daughter.

I have to say that even in the huge inner city, Gu Chen and his party are very eye-catching.

After all, Gu Chen has a handsome face and an extraordinary temperament, and beside him, his aunts Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan are like two gorgeous flowers, Xu Qing'e is mature and attractive, while Gu Qingyan is gentle and pleasant, plus the aunt takes good care of them, they The two stood together, not like mother and daughter, but more like sisters.

On the street, countless male compatriots stared at them from time to time. If there was no Gu Chen standing by his side, some people might come up to ask about Gu Qingyan's name.

Even when Gu Chen first saw the mother and daughter, he secretly lamented the good luck of his second uncle Gu Chengfeng, how he married Xu Qing'e and gave birth to such a beautiful daughter as Gu Qingyan.

Feeling many gazes, Gu Qingyan didn't feel too much discomfort, after all, she was used to it since she was a child.

After walking around with the three women for a while, Gu Chen looked at the sky, and said to his aunt Xu Qing'e, "Auntie, I still have something to do, so I'll leave for a while, you and Qingyan, you two go shopping first, and you fell in love with it." Buy anything, you're welcome."

When Xu Qing'e heard this, she also knew that Gu Chen was busy with business after being promoted, so she nodded and said, "Okay, Da Lang, if you have something to do, go and do it first."

Immediately after, Gu Chen made an appointment with them at a time and place to meet later, and walked to the other side alone.

Duke Huai's mansion is deep in the inner city, not far from the imperial palace. Logically speaking, as Duke Huai, he also has a mansion in the imperial city, but because of his own preference, he prefers to live in the inner city unless there is a big event He would choose to live inside the imperial city if he needed to stay in the palace.

Duke Huai's mansion is located on the most central street in the inner city, with an excellent location. The whole mansion is large in scale and majestic. The gate is decorated with red lacquer and gold-painted copper nails, which is extremely luxurious and magnificent. There are countless courtyards in the main hall, covering an area of ​​​​Thousands of acres.

In front of the gate of the palace, there are two solemn-looking warriors guarding here. Their aura is extremely calm and their blood is quite strong. They don't even feel much weaker than Gu Chen. They are like two hills guarding here, which makes people feel unfathomable.

A guess surfaced in Gu Chen's mind. Not surprisingly, the two warriors guarding the gate must have the cultivation base of the Diamond Realm.

Otherwise, it is determined not to bring this feeling to Gu Chen.

When he came to the main entrance of the palace, Gu Chen looked solemn, took out his waist badge and handed it over, saying: "My next guest, Gu Chen, the second-rank inspector of Jingtian Division, came here at the order of King Huai, please help me to inform you."

A King Kong warrior nodded, took the badge, and went in to report.

The interior of the palace is decorated with blue glazed tiles, with palaces, pavilions, waterside courtyards, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, cornices and cliffs all over the place.

In a large hall inside the palace, Duke Huai was wearing a blue shirt and casual clothes, and was looking through the files.

This famous and powerful figure in Kyushu is not as domineering as imagined, but a middle-aged man with a handsome face and a gentle temperament.

And behind Duke Huai, stood an old man with gray temples and a ruddy face, standing there as if blending in with the surrounding scenery, like a sculpture, without the slightest breath.

He is Duke Huai's confidant and also his personal bodyguard. People in Duke Huai's residence respectfully call him Mr. Gongsun.

At this time, a servant came to report: "My lord, Gu Chen from Jing Tiansi has arrived."

Immersed in the dossier, Duke Huai raised his head and asked in surprise, "A man from Jing Tiansi?"

The old man standing behind Duke Huai said in a low voice: "My lord, the person you asked me to go to Jing Tiansi to look for earlier is this Gu Chen."

Upon hearing this, Duke Huai patted his forehead, and said: "By the way, I remembered, there is such a thing, after getting old, sometimes this brain really doesn't work well."

When Mr. Gongsun heard this, a look of worry appeared on his face, and he said: "My lord, you haven't closed your eyes for the past few days, please pay attention to your body."

Duke Huai smiled, and said: "It's okay, now that Brother Huang is retreating, the world is already in chaos. When Brother Huang was retreating, I promised him that I would help him guard the rivers and mountains of Great Xia."

As he said that, the Duke Huai suddenly coughed a few times, obviously his health was really not very good.

Seeing this, Mr. Gongsun hurriedly sent a few wisps of energy into Duke Huai's body, and Duke Huai's complexion instantly turned rosy.

"It's been so hard for you, Mr. Gongsun, for so many years." Duke Huai smiled lightly, not caring about his stubborn illness.

After all, he has been in poor health since he was a child, and he was born with it. After so many years, he has gotten used to it.

Mr. Gongsun heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, this trivial matter is nothing to me, but you, please don't hurt your body because of these trivial matters. You don't have to do everything yourself. Some things are left to the people below." Just do it, Liuhe God Sect has disappeared for so many years, even if they come back out of the rivers and lakes, with the national power of Great Xia, they can't make any troubles."

Duke Huai smiled, didn't say much, and said to the servant: "Okay, don't make people wait for a long time, go ahead and bring Gu Chenxuan up."

"Yes." Hearing this, the servant silently retreated.

Soon, Gu Chen was brought in by his servants, and met this great man who was praised by the world, who was under Daxia alone and above ten thousand people.

"I've seen the prince." Gu Chen bowed his head and cupped his fists and said, as the inspector of Jingtian Division, he was different from other officials of Daxia. Just need to salute.

This is also the privilege given to Jing Tiansi by Emperor Xia.

"Sit down." Duke Huai nodded, signaling Gu Chen to sit down.

Hearing this, Gu Chen didn't say anything else, and sat down obediently. It wasn't until this time that he realized that there was Mr. Gongsun standing behind Duke Huai.

Gu Chen immediately trembled in his heart. If he hadn't seen it with his eyes, he would never have noticed that there was such a person behind Duke Huai. Unlike the two warriors guarding the gate, Gu Chen could fully feel the presence of Mr. Gongsun. With less than the slightest qi, if you close your eyes, it's as if this person doesn't exist at all.

No, or in other words, this old man has merged with all things in the world and became a part of the world. It is precisely because of this that in Gu Chen's perception, such a person does not exist at all.

To be able to achieve this level, there is no doubt that it must be a great master of the Xiantian realm!
Gu Chen also did not expect that besides Duke Huai, he would actually be able to see a great martial arts master with his own eyes today.

You must know that in Jingtian Division, apart from the twelve guardian envoys who sit in various prefectures, there are only a few extremely senior commanders with such cultivation.

And it was such a strong man who was actually Duke Huai's personal guard.

Moreover, Gu Chen knew that it was impossible for Duke Huai to have only such a guard. Although he couldn't sense it, Gu Chen guessed that there might be people hidden everywhere in this room, but the opponent was too strong for Gu Chen to find out. .

Seeing Gu Chen, Mr. Gongsun still remained silent. After all, in the huge Duke Huai Mansion, except for Duke Huai, there were not many people who could make him speak, let alone a junior like Gu Chen.

Duke Huai has a gentle temperament, his eyes are deep and introverted, he seemed to see what Gu Chen was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't be cautious, and don't pay too much attention to Mr. Gongsun, just let's talk about our own."

Hearing this, Mr. Gongsun also said, "That's right, just pretend I don't exist."

"Yes." Gu Chen respectfully replied.

At the same time, he also took this opportunity to look at Duke Huai a few times. This Duke Huai seemed to have a ruddy complexion, but his body was thin and his aura was weak, just like ordinary people, and there were some wrinkles around his eyes. As in the rumors, the talent in martial arts is average, but he really doesn't have much cultivation.

"I'm looking for you this time because you dealt with people from the Demon Cult in Huangming Mountain a few days ago, and you were also the first person to see the fusion of Demon Cult warriors and ghosts at close range, so I wanted to call you over for something. Inquire about it." Duke Huai said slowly.

"My lord, please speak." Gu Chen clasped his fists and said.

Duke Huai nodded, and said: "Just tell me the whole story from the beginning to the end."

"Yes." Immediately afterwards, Gu Chen described everything that happened at the Sword Discussion Conference in detail.

After listening to Gu Chen's narration, Duke Huai frowned slightly, and said: "Sure enough, I knew that the Liuhe God Sect was not completely destroyed, and it has been hiding in the dark. It's just that the number of demons has increased over the years, so I haven't devoted all my energy to it. To deal with it, I never thought about it now, but it actually caused a big problem.”

"I heard Chen Yu tell you about your guess. You have also met many Demon Cult warriors during this period of time. What do you think is the number of warriors who are perfectly integrated with demons and ghosts inside the Demon Cult?"

Gu Chen pondered for a moment, and said: "The ratio is very small, it is not so easy to merge with demons and ghosts. I have also killed many Demon Cult warriors, but not many encounter this situation."

"But..." Gu Chen hesitated for a moment, and then, after King Huai nodded, he continued: "We don't know how many people the Demon Sect has secretly amassed, and after merging with the demons, the strength of the fighters will increase. Extremely large, ghosts are inherently weird and unpredictable, and Jingtiansi spent a lot of energy to suppress them and maintain a balance, but now, the emergence of demon cult warriors has broken this balance. There will be many people secretly turning to the Demon Cult."

"Moreover... Demon Cult warriors are cruel and ruthless. After merging with demons, they may massacre and kill innocent people indiscriminately to improve their own strength. Jing Tiansi wants to suppress it. It is infinitely more difficult than simply facing demons." Gu Said in a deep voice.

Duke Huai nodded slightly when he heard the words. This was also a problem he was worried about. Although there are many ghosts, their intelligence is not high after all. As long as they are found, they can be dealt with in time. Hidden in the world, the degree of difficulty will be greatly increased.

Because of this, the strength of the Liuhe God Sect will increase countless times, which is why they dare to announce their comeback.

"Mr. Gongsun, if a great master of the innate realm merged with ghosts of the underworld level, are you sure to deal with it?" Duke Huai asked with his back to Mr. Gongsun.
