Gu Xuanchen's question suddenly made the already awkward scene even more embarrassing.
They knew that Gu Xuanchen was not stupid. Gu Xuanchen could naturally understand the situation just now!
At the same time, they also hope that Gu Xuanchen can be smarter. It would be good for everyone if they see through these things without telling them.
But who would have thought that Gu Xuanchen would lead the problem in the most acute direction as soon as he arrived.
"Elder Gu..." Qi Hongming finally broke the silence.
"This decision was made by me alone. After all, I have to be responsible for the entire sect. If you want to blame, then blame me!"
Although Qi Hongming originally chose Jingyu to protect all his disciples, as the sect leader, he needs to take on this responsibility now.
Gu Xuanchen smiled slightly, "In that case, let's talk alone!"
"By the way, it was Elder Zhang who brought me here, so please stay with me!"
Although Gu Xuanchen's words were a bit overwhelming, the elders present nodded their heads.
Of course, they had no choice but to make such a decision, but that doesn’t mean they have no guilt in their hearts!
Although Gu Xuanchen did not say it clearly, all the disciples' life tablets were not broken, but none of them appeared. In addition, Gu Xuanchen's current attitude.
Everyone has guessed that Gu Xuanchen and the others had guessed the situation in the outside world before they came out, so for the sake of the sect, those disciples chose to stay in the secret realm.
Only in this way can we explain why their life cards are not broken, but their people are missing!
Disciples can sacrifice themselves for the sake of the sect, but as an elder, he actively chooses to abandon them. This is really unreasonable.
"Then let's take our leave first!" With a few simple words of courtesy, a group of elders who used to play an important role in Aoyun Sect now felt like they were running away.
The three of them walked through the main hall and entered the back garden.
The four disciples have been dismissed by Qi Hongming.
"Elder Gu, the sect master cannot be blamed for this matter!" Zhang Yonghua said.
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Xuanchen, "I know that when I came out, you two were the only two people who dared to look directly at me. At least it means that you have persisted for us!"
"Of course, even if you don't insist, I won't blame you. At least I would make the same choice sitting in your seat!"
Gu Xuanchen knew that he would definitely not choose this way if it meant his own life, but he also understood that rationally this was indeed the best choice.
Qi Hongming and Zhang Yonghua are pretty good, Gu Xuanchen has to give them a step down!
"Thank you, Elder Gu, for your understanding!" The two nodded slightly.
This is indeed a shameful decision.
"Actually, before I came out, I had already thought about this issue and told it to other disciples..." In fact, their guess was also the argument that Gu Xuanchen had already prepared.
But now that Gu Xuanchen said it himself, Qi Hongming and Zhang Yonghua felt even more embarrassed.
"They... are all good people, and our Aoyun Sect owes them... It's because I, the sect leader, am incompetent..." Qi Hongming shook his head and sighed softly.
Gu Xuanchen shook his head slightly, "These are no longer important. Let me tell you about the situation in the secret realm first, so that you can be prepared in advance..."
Gu Xuanchen then told the general situation in the secret realm.
Of course, regarding how he helped other Aoyun Sect disciples improve their strength, Gu Xuanchen only said that everyone was lucky and encountered a great opportunity to obtain a divine art and a set of sword formations.
When it comes to things about Qin Chu, Gu Xuanchen wants to go into more detail!
After all, the emergence of Qin Chu may threaten many forces in Dongchi, including the Aoyun Sect.
Of course, Gu Xuanchen also hopes that Qin Chu's identity will be exposed, which will attract more people and forces to take advantage of him. If he can take the opportunity to eradicate him, he will be less of a source of trouble.
"Gu...Elder Gu, do you mean to say that what is in Qin Chu's body now is the remnant soul of King Qing?"
"This...how is this possible? Qin Chu had never entered the Qingwang ruins before!"
Although the two were extremely shocked, they still did not lose their minds and soon discovered the root of the problem.
"If the original remnant soul of King Qing was a person who stole the body of a certain Yin Yang Palace and entered the ruins, that person's identity might be too eye-catching, so why did they quietly improve their strength?"
Gu Xuanchen did not name Duanmu Qing, but gave him some guidance.
"Duanmu Qing!" At this time, Qi Hongming and Zhang Yonghua said in unison.
"Duanmu Qing?" Seeing that they had guessed the answer to the riddle, Gu Xuanchen continued to pretend that he didn't know anything.
Qi Hongming nodded slightly, "When the secret realm opened, all forces also joined forces to encircle and suppress the Yin and Yang Palace. Although the Yin and Yang Palace was destroyed, Duan Muqing died inexplicably in the training room, and his soul also disappeared!"
"At first, everyone thought it was strange and couldn't understand it, but if combined with what you just said, everything seems to make sense!"
To seize a body, it is natural to devour the soul of the original owner. Otherwise, two souls in one body may not only be attacked at any time, but also reject each other. This is a very dangerous thing.
Therefore, when Duanmu Qing's own soul was seized by King Qing's remnant soul, it was naturally devoured!
With King Qing's shrewdness, even if it was just a remnant soul, he would probably feel the danger ahead of time. If he were to be replaced by an inconspicuous disciple, and then enter the secret realm, everyone who entered the secret realm might become his ration to increase his strength.
All of this naturally makes sense!
At the same time, it also explains why every family will suffer heavy losses during this trip to the secret realm!
After all, the order everyone received was to kill all the Yin Yang Palace disciples, so there was no need for Qin Chu to look for others. People from other forces would also take the initiative to come forward.
In this way, the results can be imagined.
But thinking of this, Qi Hongming and Zhang Yonghua looked at Gu Xuanchen and became even more shocked!
The fact that Gu Xuanchen knows so much means that they have met Qin Chu!
If during this encounter, only Gu Xuanchen survived, they would not be surprised. After all, Gu Xuanchen also received the Qingwang inheritance.
But even so many disciples of Aoyun Sect suffered no losses, so this matter is not that simple!
After all, although the disciples of Aoyun Sect are not bad in strength, they actually have no advantage over the disciples of many forces that were completely wiped out.
But they survived!
Even though Gu Xuanchen said that he would get some kind of opportunity when he entered the secret realm, he also talked about the whole process in an understatement.
But the two of them vaguely felt that Gu Xuanchen played a major role in the Aoyun Sect's disciples being so lucky!
This also made them feel that Gu Xuanchen was unfathomable!
