Mr. Zun enveloped Li Gu City with his radiance.
Wei Ling looked carefully. As expected, his sight, perception, and sound were all blocked.
He had been suspicious of Mr. Zun’s strength before, but now his suspicions gradually disappeared and he began to ponder over the other party’s true identity.
Under the cover of the radiance, Chen Luoyang, who was disguised as Mister Zun, looked at Li Gucheng quietly.
Li Gucheng took a deep breath and said tentatively, “His Majesty the Human Emperor once left behind five edicts, arranged in the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. One of them should be in the hands of Chen Luoyang of the Ancient Gods Clan.
Although the news has not completely spread, there are faint rumors in the mortal world that this person is the disciple of a Supreme Martial Artist… ” That’s right, ” Chen Luoyang said indifferently. ” The decree in his hand is Yellow Earth. ‘
Li Gucheng was not very surprised that the resourceful Mr. Zun knew about this matter. However, he did not know the specific content of what Wei Ling had said just now.
His voice became more cautious. ” Other than the Yellow Earth Edict in Chen Luoyang’s hands, Junior has also heard a rumor. The Platinum Edict seems to be in the Wilderness…”
Young Li Wangye said as he carefully observed Mr. Zun’s movements.
Seeing that Sir Zun did not speak this time and listened quietly, Young Li Wangye secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed like Mr. Zun didn’t know anything about the platinum decree.
The information that Wei Ling provided just now should have nothing to do with the platinum decree.
This clue of his should be able to satisfy Mr. Zun.
According to Mr. Zun’s habits, he would naturally give Li Gucheng the reward he desired.
‘ This is something I heard from my father, ” Li Gucheng said. ” The white-gold imperial edict left behind by the Human Emperor should be in the hands of the tribe leader of the Wilderness.
Mr. Zun, whose face could not be seen clearly under the light in front of him, nodded.”Thank you for your trouble, young friend. Next, please continue to pay attention to everything related to the Human Emperor.”
“Senior, don’t worry. I will do my best.” Li Gucheng quickly replied.
Chen Luoyang, who was disguised as Mister Zun, said casually, ‘”‘Little friend, you gave me a piece of useful information, so I should repay you.
Little friend is in a hurry to find someone, so why don’t you head to the Yong
Yue mountain range? Perhaps you’ll find something.”
Thank you, Senior!” Li Gucheng let out a long sigh.
This Mister Zun in front of him was indeed anxious. The remuneration he gave each time was what he needed the most at the moment.
It was precisely because of this that the ” treehouse ” was difficult to part with.
As for how Mr. Zun was so omnipotent and omnipotent, Li Gucheng didn’t pursue it anymore and was used to it.
He was more concerned about whether the person Sir Zun was referring to was the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce, or the Deputy General Leng.
Which one could it be?
Although Li Gucheng felt a little uneasy, he couldn’t ask further. He could only wait until he returned and personally make a trip to the Yong Yue Mountain Range.
At this moment, he was just like Misery, curious as to why someone would go to the Yong Yue Mountain Range.
However, Young Li Wangye believed most of what Mister Zun said.
Past experience had proven that Mr. Zun had never disappointed anyone when it came to payment.
Chen Luoyang, who was disguised as Mister Zun, withdrew the radiance that enveloped Li Gucheng.
Even if Li Gucheng didn’t give him any useful information, he would still tell him about Leng Ji’s situation in the Yong Yue mountain range.
I have never intended to let the Misery Sea’s lineage take advantage of me for free.
The more forces that went to look for Leng Ji, the more chaotic the situation would be, which would be more helpful for his subsequent arrangements.
On the other hand, the clues regarding the whereabouts of the Platinum Edict in Li Gucheng made Chen Luoyang’s eyes light up.
He did not ask Li Gucheng and Wei Ling to find out the whereabouts of the Human Emperor on a whim.
Back in the Divine Lands, when he obtained the Yellow Earth Edict Talisman, he was only worried that the Heavenly Buddha who had abandoned the edict might have ulterior motives.
However, when he obtained the Green Wood Talisman and came to the Red Dust World, he found a problem after reading some of the information in the Red Dust Ancient God Clan’s main sect.
The history of the Human Emperor had ended thousands of years ago.
In the past few years, there were very few records about these Human Emperor’s decrees.
Moreover, different decrees would appear in different historical eras and only occasionally appear.
As a result, everyone didn’t know much about the specific functions of the decrees.
The time interval between different records was at least a hundred years.
But now, Huang Tu and Qing Mu were already in Chen Luoyang’s hands.
After hearing that the Empress of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty had claimed to have a Black Water Edict Talisman, Chen Luoyang felt that this wasn’t as simple as a coincidence.
According to Li Gucheng, the platinum decree had already appeared and was in the hands of the Manhuang Tribe Leader.
This made Chen Luoyang feel that something was amiss.
The Heavenly Buddha recently sent the Yellow Earth Talisman back to the Mortal World. Did he have other plans?
Chen Luoyang pondered in his heart.
As for the ending of the Human Emperor back then, although the consensus of the world of mortals was that the Human Emperor had already fallen, there were still too many mysteries surrounding this ending.
It was said that the Human Emperor had fallen, but who knew how much of it was because the world of mortals had a new master?
While Chen Luoyang was pondering in his heart, he pretended to be Mister Zun and turned his gaze to Ji Zhong.
Ji Zhong lowered his head slightly.
It was not his first time in the treehouse, but the feeling he had at this moment was completely different from when he came here before.
The Palace Elders arranged for him to follow Shentu Jingran and the others to protect Elder Nie Guan and the gatekeeper, who were recuperating.
However, as time passed, the sensitive Ji Zhong faintly felt that something was amiss.
Other people’s opinions aside, Shentu Jingran seemed a little strange.
To put it nicely, Shentu Jingran was not guarding Elder Nie, but more like protecting Ji Zhong.
To put it bluntly, the other party was faintly monitoring him.
This made Ji Zhong feel uneasy.
He had always been indifferent, never striving for anything, and always went with the flow.
However, the strangeness of his fellow disciples reminded him of his own uniqueness.
Ever since he was young, there had always been some inexplicable voice in his heart, as if it was whispering in his ear.
At first, he thought it was his imagination.
However, as he grew older, the strange sound became more frequent and clearer.
At first, it would only ring once a year and a half, then gradually, it would ring every two to three months, and later on, it would ring every month. Especially after entering this year, it became more and more frequent. Recently, there would be one every three to five days.
Ji Zhong had always been indifferent and indifferent to life and death.
However, he was inexplicably concerned about this matter.
He wasn’t sure if it was because of the unknown mystery that made him so bothered, or if it was because the voice itself had the strange power to bewitch people.
However, when he noticed the strange behavior of his fellow disciples, Ji Zhong was certain that he was not a suspicious ghost.
The last time he came to the ‘treehouse’, this Mister Zun had also pointed out his secret peculiarity, proving his conjecture.
Due to this reason, Ji Zhong had taken the initiative and tried to find out more about the Demon Lord. However, he soon realized that his actions were restricted by the Xian Tian Palace.
Today, when he came to the treehouse, Mr. Zun changed his mission again. He no longer cared about the Demon Venerable but about the Human Emperor.
A rare sense of defeat appeared in Ji Zhong’s heart.
If one had a desire, it was naturally difficult to remain as still as water.
However, he was an indifferent and open-minded person, so he quickly calmed down.
Facing Mister Zun’s gaze, Ji Zhong shook his head gently. “”This junior is of great use. The people and things I can interact with are very limited. I don’t have anything to offer senior. Please forgive me.”
” It’s fine. This is the first time I’ve brought up the matter of the Human Ruler. It’s normal that you’re not prepared. I just hope you can help me keep an eye out for the future. ” Mr. Zun’s tone was as gentle as ever, and there was no change in his emotions.
“I’ll do my best,” Ji Zhong nodded.
Even though he said that, he was still at a loss when he thought about the strange situation he was in in Xian Tian Palace.
On the other side, Mr. Zun looked at ‘Wutong.’
” Wu Tong ” quickly replied, ” Senior, please give me some time. I will try my best to find it.
Wei Ling looked on coldly from the side and noticed that ” Wu Tong ” sounded a little nervous.
Previously, when everyone had transformed into ” fruits ” and hung on the branches of the Tree of God, the other party had hinted that although Mr. Zun seemed kind, he was equally merciless when it came to punishing people.
Wei Ling felt that it was strange that Ji Zhong was so calm just now.
When he saw ” Wu Tong “, he couldn’t help but feel his heart skip a beat. He could faintly feel the fear hidden in her heart.
This made Wei Ling even more alert.
Then, he saw Mr. Zun’s gaze look in his direction.
” My friends here have all chosen the name of a tree as their own name. Does this young friend have any suitable choice? ‘
When “Wu Tong” and the others introduced themselves, Wei Ling was already mentally prepared. He replied, “I choose the maple tree.”
Mr. Zun nodded and looked around at the crowd. ‘”‘ Well then, that’s all for today. I look forward to the next meeting, where everyone will have new gains.
With that, he left shrouded in light.
Wei Ling was not in a hurry to leave. He stayed in the hall and looked around.
“I’ll take my leave first.” Ji Zhong cupped his fists at the others. Then, he walked out of the hall and disappeared.
” Wu Tong ” looked at Li Gucheng.
Li Gucheng nodded silently and the two of them walked out of the hall together.
At the entrance of the hall, Li Gucheng handed two blood-red withered vines to ” Wutong
“Keep the Bodhi Wither that I promised you last time.” Li Gucheng smiled. ” I have the King of Benevolence Immortal Fruit with me. Let’s see what price you can offer.
Chen Luoyang, who was disguised as a parasol tree, received two dried bodhi leaves and carefully put them away. He then said helplessly, “”1 collected some information related to the Demon Venerable and planned to exchange it with you, but now it seems that it’s all a waste of effort.”
Li Gucheng pondered for a moment and said,”How about this, you help me do something, and I’ll give you King Ren’s immortal fruit. What do you think?” ” Wutong ” asked, ” I’m afraid I can’t do it. Can you tell me what it is first? ‘
“Help me kill a person, the Prince of Western Qin, Li Gucheng..”
