When Gu Chen heard this, he immediately declined and said: "Thank you Brother Jiang for your kindness, but all the brothers and I are a little tired after coming all the way from Tiandu. Let's forget about this banquet. You can just do what you want."
Gu Chen didn't dare to be interested in this kind of gathering. What's more, with the current tense situation in the world, Gu Chen was even less in the mood to attend any banquet.
Even if he has no merit points, Gu Chen doesn't want to let go of any time. Whenever he has free time, he will polish the Gang Qi in his body and practice.
Now what Gu Chen is thinking about is to cultivate the alien power as soon as possible. The battle with the two ghost elders of Xueyilou made him realize the importance of the alien power.
Currently, cultivating the alien Qi is Gu Chen's biggest goal right now.
When Jiang Huan heard this, he still smiled and said, "Okay, let's forget it for today. How about we do it tomorrow?"
Gu Chen really had no intention of gathering with them to eat and drink, so he still shook his head and politely declined Jiang Huan.
Seeing this, Jiang Huan frowned slightly, and a flash of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
He felt that Gu Chen was a little too arrogant. You should know that he was the Xuan-level commander of Jingtian Division, while Gu Chen was only the yellow-level commander. Although he was famous and powerful, he was one level higher than Gu Chen.
level.
With his strength and status, he greeted Gu Chen with such a smile. He wanted to entertain Gu Chen and make friends with him out of good intentions, but was rejected, which made Jiang Huan feel a little unhappy.
However, on the surface, Jiang Huan did not say anything. Instead, he nodded with a smile and said, "That's fine. Mr. Gu will have a good rest today. If you have anything to do, let's talk about it tomorrow. We won't disturb Mr. Gu."
Already."
With that said, Jiang Huan left with Yanzhou Jingtiansi and the others very neatly.
Gu Chen watched Jiang Huan lead the people away. He had excellent eyesight and naturally saw the flash of displeasure in Jiang Huan's eyes, but he didn't say anything more.
After all, Gu Chen came here not to make friends with them, but to kill the demons and guard Yanzhou.
Before coming, Qin Wu had told him to let him act independently. Even if Jiang Huan was one level higher than him and belonged to the Xuan-level guardianship, he would not be able to control Gu Chen. Qin Wu once said that except for the guardianship of Yanzhou, no one could control Gu Chen.
You can control him.
Therefore, Gu Chen did not pay attention to Jiang Huan's change of attitude and said to the people behind him: "Let's all disperse. We have been traveling for a month and you all should have a good rest."
"yes!"
When Song Yu, Wang Yan and other envoys heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief and headed to their respective residences under the leadership of the minor officials.
Yanzhou Jingtiansi occupies a large area, and there is no problem even if it accommodates thousands of people at the same time, let alone only this small number of people.
The same was true for Gu Chen. After being taken to a small courtyard with pleasant scenery by the clerk, Gu Chen began to practice.
After all, if he couldn't find the ancient rare Yang Yan Stone, Gu Chen would have to figure out how to cultivate the Sun Gang Qi on his own.
As for Jiang Huan, Gu Chen did not take this matter to heart. In his opinion, the most important thing now is to enhance his own strength.
…
In the evening, Jiang Huan and three other Xuan-level commanders, together with several Huang-level commanders, came to the largest restaurant in Yulong City.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Jiang Huan from Jingtiansi? I don't know that Mr. Jiang is here, but I'm a bit disappointed in you. Please don't blame Mr. Jiang." When the restaurant manager saw Jiang Huan and the others, he quickly greeted them with a smile.
come over.
After all, although Kyushu is now in chaos, to the common people, Jingtiansi is still the sky and is aloof. No business shop in Yulong City dares to offend Jingtiansi's people.
Even if they come to eat, it's free. Not to mention, every year, they give Jiang Huan and others a lot of benefits.
Otherwise, it is not that easy to do business in Yulong City, and the government may not take care of it if there is trouble.
The reason why this restaurant is the number one restaurant in Yulong City is not because the shopkeeper has established a good relationship with Jiang Huan and sends him a lot of money every year.
Therefore, seeing Jiang Huan bring people here, the restaurant manager would never dare to neglect him.
In fact, the shopkeeper had already reserved a seat for them, and it was the largest private room in the restaurant. Even if Jiang Huan and the others didn't come, no other guests would be allowed to enter.
Jiang Huan had no expression on his face. In response to the enthusiastic reception of this group of people, he just nodded his head and said "hmm" through his nostrils.
In his eyes, it was already very good for him to be kind to these ordinary people.
The shopkeeper was not angry when he saw this, he was obviously used to it. Then, the shopkeeper personally led Jiang Huan and his party to their private box.
Everyone from the shopkeeper to the waiters were extremely enthusiastic and served Jiang Huan and others a lot of good wine and food. The food was served very quickly, for fear that Jiang Huan would be dissatisfied.
Jiang Huan and the others ignored it and started eating and drinking on their own.
Soon, after three drinks, the atmosphere in the private room became more and more lively.
Among the three Xuan-level commanders present, besides Jiang Huan, the other two were named Dong Ziwei and Le Zhengyang.
The three of them have the best relationship among the Jingtian Division, and among them, Jiang Huanxiu is the highest, so among the three of them, he is also implicitly the leader.
And the benefits Jiang Huan receives every year from various places in Yulong City will also be distributed to Dong Ziwei and Le Zhengyang.
At this time, Dong Zi put the wine glass on the table with a bang.
Seeing this, all the yellow-ranked commanders looked over and looked at him with some confusion.
Among them, Yue Zhengyang, the younger of the Xuan-level commanders, looked at Dong Ziwei with a smile and asked: "Brother Dong, what's going on? Who provoked you?"
Jiang Huan also took a sip of wine and looked over.
Dong Ziwei is a middle-aged man with a rough face and a beard. At this moment, he has drunk a lot of wine and has not activated his cultivation to resolve it. In addition, he actively seeks to get drunk. Now he is a little drunk.
Got up.
Just listen to him shouting: "I am complaining for Brother Jiang. Brother Jiang greets me with a smile. Who would have thought that Gu Chen is so proud of his talent and his reputation that he dares to refuse Brother Jiang's invitation. In fact,
It’s a bit ignorant!”
Hearing this, Jiang Huan said nothing, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
So what can people from Tiandu do? You know, this is Yanzhou!
Jiang Huan naturally knew about Gu Chen's talent and achievements, and Jiang Huan also admitted that Gu Chen would definitely be able to surpass him in the future.
But at least now, Gu Chen will not be his opponent!
Just like this, Gu Chen is already so arrogant and dares to reject him twice in a row. What will happen in the future?
Gu Chen never expected that his refusal would be regarded as arrogance in the eyes of these people.
But the reality is like this, or it can be said that there are many famous people, and after becoming famous, naturally there will be discussions. Some people like it and some people will criticize it. Even warriors who are in the Return to True Realm are still human beings, and they will inevitably have seven emotions and six desires in their hearts.
"He is self-righteous, thinking that he has cultivated an indestructible body that no one has achieved in hundreds of years. When everyone just praises him, he really feels that he is invincible. With his appearance and demeanor, he really thinks that he is the best in Kyushu.
Is he a martial arts genius?" Dong Zi hummed, his face extremely unhappy.
When all the yellow-rank commanders heard this, no one said anything. After all, although Gu Chen was also a yellow-rank commander, and both parties were nominally equal, in terms of strength, status, or talent, none of them here
No one can compare to Gu Chen.
Jiang Huan heard this and said lightly: "Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. This Gu Chen is indeed a little arrogant. Relying on his young age and high talent, he really does not take us veteran commanders in his eyes. If he
If you keep relying on your talents and being arrogant, you will suffer big losses sooner or later."
Le Zhengyang on the side nodded and said: "It's true. Brother Jiang invited him twice, but Gu Chen refused without giving any face. In front of everyone, Brother Jiang really felt a little embarrassed, and Gu Chen felt a little uncomfortable.
Know good from evil."
Dong Ziwei shouted: "Let me tell you, let's find an opportunity to show him some color and let him know that this is Yanzhou, not Tiandu, and it is not his turn as a junior to run wild!"
Among everyone present, even the youngest was already thirty-two years old, more than ten years older than Gu Chen. In their eyes, Gu Chen was a junior.
Hearing this, Le Zhengyang said: "Brother Dong, no, Gu Chen is from Tiandu after all. If we teach him a lesson, what should we think when the guardian envoy or the king comes out of seclusion? We don't know either.
A good deal."
Jiang Huan also said: "There will be no need to teach you a lesson. Just don't deal with him in the future. Martial arts practice becomes more and more difficult as you progress. We don't know how long it will take for him to advance to our level. Maybe, his
It’s not necessarily the end of the potential.”
Hearing this, Dong Ziwei said even more maliciously: "Humph! Nowadays, the chaos in Yanzhou is the most serious. The Shengming Sect and Mahakala Sect of the six major demon sects are still lurking in Yanzhou. With Gu Chen's reputation, they have
After knowing this, Gu Chen will definitely be the primary target. I don’t think this kid will live long. A dead genius is nothing!"
Le Zhengyang smiled slightly and said, "Let's not discuss him anymore. It affects our mood. Let's change the topic."
After a pause, he continued: "Brother Dong also mentioned it just now. Nowadays, the world has changed greatly, especially in Yanzhou. Even the governor has suffered heavy losses. We should make plans in advance."
When Jiang Huan, Dong Ziwei and other commanders of the Jingtian Division heard this, a look of unclear meaning flashed in their eyes.
With their status reaching Jiang Huan's level, no one wants to die. However, as a member of Jingtiansi, their duty is to monitor the world. Once the world is in chaos, they will be the first to bear the brunt and rush to the most dangerous place.
a row.
On that day, Jiang Huan and the others realized the seriousness of the problem when they saw three Xiantian realm martial arts masters fighting, and in that battle, Jingtiansi suffered heavy casualties.
In the twenty-three years of peace in the world, although there have been many casualties in dealing with the demon Jingtiansi over the years, it is extremely rare for a large-scale battle like that day to lose so many commanders at once.
Years of hard work were all gone in one fell swoop, which was unacceptable to Jiang Huan and others.
It is precisely for this reason that these people have been gathering together frequently and going out to drink in recent times.
Frankly speaking, they are not optimistic about the current situation in Yanzhou after experiencing it.
Jiang Huan and others knew very well that in the near future, Daxia would definitely be attacked by heroes from all over the world and become the primary target of all forces in Kyushu.
At this time, Jiang Huan looked at Le Zhengyang, frowned slightly, and said, "What good idea do you have?"
When Le Zhengyang heard this, he smiled slightly.
…
The bright moonlight fell down the sky, shining through the window on Gu Chen's body.
In the room, Gu Chen was concentrating on polishing his Gang Qi in order to make further progress.
However, when one's cultivation reaches his level, without merit points, the rate of progress must be measured in years.
For Gu Chen, it takes too much time to reach the perfection of the Gangqi realm through his own hard work.
At this time, a loud voice came, and someone knocked on Gu Chen's door.
Gu Chen opened his eyes, and a little bit of the golden clouds dissipated inside. Without any movement from him, the door opened automatically. Standing at the door was none other than Yanzhou Jingtian Division Xuanjie Commander, who had met Gu Chen during the day.
, Le Zhengyang.
At this moment, Le Zhengyang had already used Zhen Gang to dispel the smell of alcohol in himself before coming here. Now he does not look like he has drunk at all.
Gu Chen naturally recognized him. Seeing that the other party came to see him so late, a flash of doubt flashed in his eyes and said: "Brother Le came to see Gu so late, but what's the important matter?"
