Chapter 603: It is a place without rocks, but I often hear people say that there is a sinking
Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty.
As the top divine dynasty that once dominated both Beiming and Zhongzhou, even though many years have passed since its former glory, the capital of this divine dynasty still has a prosperity and grandeur that surpasses ordinary cities.
Looking from the outside.
This is a solemn and majestic building. At first glance, it makes people feel powerless and unable to break through.
And walk inside.
This feeling will become stronger and stronger.
The wide and straight streets are paved with gleaming spiritual crystals. The houses on both sides of the road are built with various spiritual minerals. Walking on them feels like walking in the fairyland, but every brick and tile, every blade of grass and every tree, in the midst of dreamlike illusion, seems to carry endless murderous intent.
Even Gu Xiu couldn't help but look towards the towering palace over there after just a glance.
Or.
In that palace, there is an altar that connects heaven and earth.
As if noticing Gu Xiu's confusion, He Guanlan beside him explained to him:
"This Scarlet Cloud City is the new Scarlet Cloud City. It was built by the Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord after he went to the Tiangong Holy Land in Zhongzhou and invited thirty-six purple-robed weapon refiners and six gold-robed weapon refiners to work together."
"This is a city, but it is also a magical weapon."
"The entire Scarlet Cloud City is a massive formation, with the Imperial City's Heavenly Altar as its center. Standing on this altar, one can see everything in the entire Divine Dynasty. If a battle were to occur, every brick and tile in the city would become a murderous aura. No matter how many enemies enter, they can all be surrounded and annihilated."
These words made Gu Xiu nod his head.
He also realized that the formation here was extremely mysterious. Even though he had the Seven Star Pendant on him, he was unable to see the mystery of the formation in the city at a glance.
even.
Even if you can see something, it is extremely difficult to break the formation here, because this is not just a simple formation, but a magic weapon!
but……
"Very ordinary." Broken Star also stared at the city, scanning it for a moment before shaking his head. "Fancy things are useless. Besides making the formation here stronger, it's a complete waste of materials. I can point out at least thirty areas that could be improved."
have to.
In front of this person, no matter how unique and powerful this city is, it is just... that.
"This should be Mr. Sui, right?" At this moment, a voice came. Gu Xiu turned his head and saw that the person who spoke was a middle-aged man wearing a long green robe, with a pale face and looking a little weak.
But facing this man, Gu Xiu did not show any contempt. He immediately clasped his fists and saluted: "Junior Sui Yuan, greetings to Duke Zhou."
this.
It is another supreme being in the Chiyun Divine Dynasty who has a great reputation and is even able to restrain the Chiyun Divine Lord this time.
Duke of Zhou!
but.
Although this person has the supreme cultivation, he does not have the slightest supreme bearing. When he saw Gu Xiu saluting, he even raised his hand to stop Gu Xiu:
"Master Sui, please don't be polite. You are a great contributor to our Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty. I should be the one to give you the greetings."
talking.
He didn't even give Gu Xiu a chance to stop him, and actually bowed to Gu Xiu in front of everyone.
As for his behavior, the people around him seemed to have already become accustomed to it:
"Duke Zhou has never used his power to bully others. Quite the contrary, he has always advocated that anyone who has made contributions in the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty should receive his respect."
"Duke Zhou has devoted all his energy to the matter of the Divine Master this time, but if it weren't for Young Master Sui's intervention, I'm afraid the Divine Master would have been in great danger long ago."
"He wasn't saluting a junior like Mr. Sui, but rather a meritorious official of our Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty."
"..."
The talk of people around.
Gu Xiu couldn't help but take another look at Duke Zhou.
Duke Zhou was quite dauntless: "The Divine Master has just returned and is exhausted from the journey. He should rest first. However, according to the rules of the Divine Dynasty, the canonization ceremony for the Son of God has not yet been held, so there is no residence for the time being. If you don't mind, how about the Son of God and Master Sui staying in our Duke's Mansion for the time being?"
"Duke Zhou, I'm afraid..." The eunuch next to him became a little anxious.
"What? Inappropriate?" Duke Zhou's eyelids twitched slightly. "If it's inappropriate, then tell me, where do you intend for the future Lord of the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty to live?"
"This..." The eunuch suddenly felt uneasy, but he dared not say where he planned to arrange Mo Chen.
But Duke Zhou snorted coldly:
"Humph!"
"Jing Li is the Red Cloud Divine Son, the only legitimate heir to the Divine Lord in the Red Cloud Divine Dynasty. This king knows what little thoughts you have, but if you can use them while Jing Li is still here, this king will forgive you."
"But now Jing Li has returned to the court. If he still intends to use those dirty tricks..."
"Then this king."
"I will never let you off easily!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the eunuch finally couldn't bear the pressure and fell to his knees.
What Duke Zhou said is indeed true.
The Divine Master had asked him to make subsequent arrangements. He had actually already prepared a shabby, shabby residence, intending to help his master and give this little Divine Master a warning. After all, although Yun Jingli was the Son of God, he was ultimately just a Qi Refining cultivator. How could such a small character dare to covet his master's Divine Master position?
Wouldn't that mean you have to squeeze and beat them hard?
I just never expected it.
His trick was seen through by Duke Zhou before he could even carry it out, and was even exposed in public. How could he dare to say another word?
"This applies to everyone." Duke Zhou glanced at everyone present.
And was swept by his eyes.
Some people lowered their heads in fear, not even daring to breathe.
Fortunately, Duke Zhou did not persist any longer. After gesturing to Mo Chen and Gu Xiu, he immediately took a step forward, and a group of people headed towards the Duke's Mansion in a mighty manner.
On the way, Gu Xiu probably knew why Lord Chiyun finally gave way.
It is said that it was Duke Zhou who persuaded most of the civil and military officials in the court, as well as many elders of the Chiyun Divine Dynasty, to go to the Golden Palace to plead for mercy. With such a huge momentum, even though the Chiyun Divine Lord wanted Mo Chen to die on the spot, he had to take the situation in the court into consideration.
In the end, Mo Chen had no choice but to enter the city.
Upon hearing the news, Mo Chen naturally expressed his gratitude. In the next half day, under the arrangement of Duke Zhou, Mo Chen met with almost all the dignitaries in the court who expressed their goodwill.
This is certainly not easy.
But as the Son of God, he has now returned to the court.
Although he has already gained a status admired by everyone at a young age, it is also destined that his future will not be easy.
But the good thing is.
Duke Zhou was indeed a very good supporter. He held a very high status in the Divine Dynasty and was very familiar with the situation of the Chiyun Divine Dynasty. Under his leadership, although Mo Chen was very tired, everything went smoothly. It only took him half a day, the Son of God, to gather a group of supporters.
In addition, there were all the powerful and noble princes who followed Mo Chen when he returned to the court.
The current situation of the Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty has already had some potential to divide the world into two parts, although it is still somewhat inferior to the lineage of the Divine Lord.
But he also had some reputation in the court.
This made Mo Chen breathe a sigh of relief, and he even told Gu Xiu that he felt that being the Son of God in this Divine Dynasty was not as difficult as he had imagined.
Gu Xiu did not agree or refute these words, but spoke after Mo Chen finished speaking:
"I've never been a Son of God, nor have I ever governed a country, so I never get involved in your government affairs. You've been behaving very well lately, becoming more and more like a Son of God. There's not much I can teach you now."
Hearing this, Mo Chen's heart suddenly tightened.
He feels.
My teacher seems to be planning to leave.
He immediately bowed and said, "Teacher, your teachings are always like enlightenment to me, you..."
"Everyone has to say goodbye eventually. When the time comes, you can't stop me or persuade me." Gu Xiu interrupted Mo Chen with a wave of his hand before he could finish.
"But don't worry."
"I won't leave until you've learned the last lesson I have to teach you."
These words brought a smile to Mo Chen's face, and he nodded his head: "As long as the teacher doesn't abandon the students!"
There was still innocence in the eyes of this young son of God.
Seeing this touch of innocence, Gu Xiu felt a little disappointed, but in the end, he hardened his heart and said with a stern face: "I have taught you many things and given you many words along the way. Today, I feel something, and I want to give you another word."
"Thank you for your words, teacher!" Mo Chen bowed quickly, full of anticipation.
But Gu Xiu said slowly:
"Jing Creek is rocky and people are very cautious, so all year round no one has ever been capsized. But where the river flows smoothly and there are no rocks, there are reports of people sinking."
"This is what I want to give you."
This……
Mo Chenyi fell into deep thought. He understood the meaning of the poem.
The meaning is that Jingxi River is full of dangerous rocks and the waves are very fast, so people are always very careful when crossing the river. As a result, there are no reports of people accidentally drowning in this dangerous place. On the contrary, in places with gentle currents and no rocks, there are often reports of people drowning.
The teacher just said this...
Suddenly, Mo Chen's heart skipped a beat: "Teacher, are you trying to say that I've become lax and let down my guard?"
"Yes." Gu Xiu nodded.
"Teacher, I didn't..." Mo Chen wanted to say that he did not let his guard down, but he was suddenly stunned before he finished speaking. He was a smart child and knew that the teacher would never speak without a purpose, and now that he was reminding him, it must be because he had overlooked something.
Think about it this way.
He did think of one question.
"Lord Chiyun is being unreasonable today!" Mo Chen suddenly said.
"Oh?" Gu Xiu smiled, seemingly unsurprised. "Tell me, why is it unreasonable?"
"He didn't kill the students!" Mo Chen replied.
Gu Xiu smiled, "But didn't you say before that the Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord didn't kill you because Duke Zhou and the court elders persuaded him?"
"Duke Zhou and his men may have played a role, but they are definitely not the most crucial reason!"
"Oh? Why do you see it?"
"He is the Lord God, and he has the supreme cultivation!" But Mo Chen said:
"For a supreme being like Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord, killing a student is like crushing an ant. Standing before the student today, even if he personally kills him, it may indeed bring some negative effects."
"but……"
"He is already a Divine Lord."
"If he were to attack directly and kill the student on the spot, although he would be criticized, his position as the Divine Lord would certainly be unshakable. Because in the entire Scarlet Cloud Divine Dynasty, as long as I die, there will be no second person who can replace him."
"If he really values his status as the rumors say, he would definitely not let go of such an opportunity to kill his disciple."
"But in the end, he chose to give up."
"This is unreasonable!"
These words made Gu Xiu nod in admiration.
He just gave a simple reminder, but Mo Chen was able to think of so many things immediately. From this point of view, he could indeed rest assured about this disciple.
However, Gu Xiu didn't say anything, but just asked: "What's your conclusion?"
"As for the conclusion..." Mo Chen pursed his lips:
"Or, the rumors about the Scarlet Cloud Divine Lord in the outside world are all false and disguised."
"Either..."
"After entering the city, Lord Scarlet Cloud still has a killer move!"
As soon as this guess came out, bursts of golden sword fairy music suddenly rang out, as if falling from the sky, and the entire Chiyun capital city shook violently at this moment.
Gu Xiu and Mo Chen looked at each other, then walked out of the house together.
Look up.
But see.
The clear sky of the entire Chiyun Divine Dynasty was suddenly covered by red clouds at some point, as if a huge hand was covering the entire sky above the Chiyun Divine Dynasty.
And at this moment.
A breeze blew by.
But see.
In the crimson cloud above the Chiyun Divine Dynasty, there actually appeared faintly a divine dynasty city that was looming and looked like a fairy palace!
Hanging upside down in the sky!!!
