Old Men

"Something happened to the demon tribe?"

Gu Heng asked.

"Yes, rumors are flying everywhere now. The Ten Thousand Demon King has summoned all the tribes in the Demon Realm and assembled a huge army that can set out at any time!"

"Their first battle must be an attack on East Xinjiang!"

In fact, the old man also had this plan and wanted to leave here.

But unlike Gu Heng, he had to leave and had no ability to change the situation. If Gu Heng wanted, he could just stand here like a fairy mountain, and whoever dared to collide with him would die.

Mr. Gu wanted to leave simply because he didn't want to be involved in such troublesome matters, lest he would have to take action and make it known to the world.

That doesn't quite fit in with his idea of ​​living in seclusion from the world, does it?

"So that's how it is..."

Gu Heng sighed.

Indeed, this time, I have to leave.

There have been precedents for wars between demons and humans. It is said that the previous wars were all violent and devastating, with countless lives lost! However, Gu Heng never expected that he would have to escape from war one day.

It's only been a few years since the peaceful days.

well!

If he was strong enough, he could just fight against the demon army right there, then kill them all on the battlefield and make a name for himself. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

There is everything in dreams.

As a novice cultivator, he would have to seriously consider the safety of his life when dealing with monsters, let alone the demon army.

It is better to avoid his edge first. When I am stronger in the future, I will come back and defeat him miserably!

After the old man left.

Gu Heng sat down in the front yard and began to think about what to do next.

We can't stay in Yunling City any longer.

I also have to make it clear to the little girl. Anyway, I don't think she will plan to stay here any longer. This small place is not easy to develop, and the demon tribe is about to attack. It's time to go to a more prosperous place.

And...the power behind the Blood Shadow Building.

This has to be checked.

Since the system has issued a temporary task and "kindly" reminded him that if he digs deeper into the power behind the Blood Shadow Building, he will definitely find something big!

Then Gu Heng had to do it.

Mainly, it piqued his interest."...Speaking of which, did it take that little girl that long to go to the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop?"

Gu Heng looked up at the sky and saw that night was about to fall.

But at this moment, the door was pushed open and Qin Yiyao came back.

"Master!"

The little girl seemed very happy, and no one knew what special gains she had gained from this trip to the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop.

"You're back, so I can go cook."

He stood up and began to think about what kind of meal to cook tonight. After all, he didn't have much time left to stay here.

…

The old man returned to the carving shop in the west of the city.

As soon as he entered the door, several old men sitting in the shop cast their eyes at him, with expressions of dissatisfaction written all over their faces.

"Everyone, I'm back."

The old man chuckled.

"snort."

Several old men glanced at him coldly.

One of them, who had a more impatient temper, was already stroking his beard and said in a sarcastic tone: "Old Pentou, we are not good enough to investigate the matter you asked us to investigate, and we even came to this godforsaken place to report to you in detail..."

"But you still don't let us meet the 'Mr. Gu' you mentioned. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

After this statement was made, although the other old men did not agree openly, they must have had similar thoughts in their hearts.

But it is impossible to turn against each other.

Everyone is an old friend with a life-and-death friendship. When they first met, they were all good-for-nothings, but now they are all monks who have overcome tribulation and have some fame. They have made it in the world and have helped each other a lot.

Their relationship is so good that they are almost sworn brothers.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have started to inquire around the world and search for information about the power behind the Blood Shadow Building just because of Gu Laotou's words.

This is a job that will save you from headaches if you are not careful.

Although the old man did not hide anything from them, he always told half the story and left out the other half. Who could stand that?

It's impossible that they won't even be able to see that "recluse master" in the end, right?

"You old bastards!"

The old man became more excited, and pointed at several people with his dry branch-like fingers: "I have already said that Master Gu is definitely not an ordinary master. When the time comes, I will naturally introduce him. You are all so anxious as if your parents have died. Are you planning to do something bad?"

"snort."One of the old men glared at him coldly and said, "Old Pentou, your rhetoric may fool a three-year-old child, but it won't fool us!"

"We've all seen the world, and we've seen powerful people before, but can you at least tell us who Mr. Gu is? That way we can have some idea, and we don't have to keep guessing..."

"Yes, old pen!"

Several other people expressed their opinions.

It doesn't matter for the time being if they don't have any recommendations, but they should at least know who they are working for. More importantly, don't let this old penman practice calligraphy too much and get stupid, and be deceived by others.

When the "Dry Pen Killer" disappeared, these old friends were actually a little worried.

What we were afraid of was that the old man would get stuck in a dead end and would never be able to get out of this dilemma until his death. Now he has come out of it, which is good, but I heard that there is a master helping him, which makes people a little wary.

There are people in this world who are stronger than them.

But they just don't believe that the old man is really so lucky that he can meet a noble person at this age.

"Hey, don't get excited."

The old man waved his hands quickly, "Ah! Let me tell you, I can't see too much about that Mr. Gu, but I guarantee that he is definitely a fairy-level existence!"

The existence of the Immortal Rank...

The old men looked at each other again.

Then, they all looked at the old man with pity and as if he were a fool.

"Old Pen, are you... okay?"

"I have a medicine here, which was personally made by Master Tu Yan from the Western Regions. It can cure brain damage. If you have any problem, I will give it to you."

Listening to these seemingly concerned greetings.

The old man immediately blew his beard and glared: "I am in good health and my brain is very sharp! You are the one with a tumor in your head!"

"I said he is at the Immortal level, do you really think I'm kidding?!"

His roar was deafening, as if he was really angry, and it definitely didn't sound like he was joking or talking nonsense because he had a problem in his brain, but this brought up a big problem!

Are there any immortal-level cultivators in this world?

After the primitive period, the path to immortality was broken, and there was no longer any so-called immortal stage.

But now, in this remote little place, there is suddenly a powerful immortal in seclusion? Who would believe this?

"Old man, do you really have evidence?"

After the questioning, the old man snorted coldly, then slammed the several top-notch immortal books that Gu Heng had just given him directly on the table!

"Take a good look!"

"Here's the evidence!"
