Chapter 767: The Great and Good Master’s Decree!!!

"Zhou Qiucheng, this is the command of the Great and Good Master. Do you accept it or not?" Gu Mingyue looked at Zhou Qiucheng with a burning gaze, her eyes full of coldness:

"You must think carefully about what will happen if you refuse the Great Sage Master. The demons have already swept across the land of Jiangnan. As long as you accept the decree, Huang Tiandao will help you resist the demons, and countless people in Jiangnan will have a chance to survive. The future of countless people in Jiangnan depends on your thoughts. You must think carefully before answering."

"I don't know what fate I will face, but I am only loyal to the court. As for the Great Sage Teacher? Who is he? He is just a rebel. Is he worthy of my bowing to? As for the incense poison you mentioned, haha..." Zhou Qiucheng just sneered, thinking that the other party was just making false threats. If there really was incense poison, he should have noticed it long ago, but he did not detect any scent of incense poison.

"Zhao Lie is Huang Tiandao's star for breaking the army and is destined to kill the wolf. If you don't release Zhao Lie, Huang Tiandao will never let it go. You'd better think about it!" Gu Mingyue questioned.

"Of course I have thought about it. Please go back, sir. If you delay any further, I don't know if my Linglong Tower can keep you here." There was a hint of murderous intent in Zhou Qiucheng's eyes.

Gu Mingyue took a deep breath upon hearing this, and slowly rolled up the Great Sage Master's decree and put it back into her sleeves: "Okay! I admire your stubbornness. But you used the Water God's Tomb to bury Chen Sanliang. I want to see how you will face the wrath of the demon army next. When the time comes, hundreds of millions of people in Jiangnan will be buried with you. I hope you won't regret it."

Gu Mingyue stood up after she finished speaking and said, "The Great Sage Master admires you. You have caught the eye of the Great Sage Master, and that is the Great Sage Master's praise for you. Now that you don't appreciate the praise, you can't blame us."

Gu Mingyue turned her eyes to Zhang Chen again, with a hint of coldness in her eyes: "Zhang Chen, if you come back with me now and confess your crime and hand over Cheng Yu, everything will be fine for us. I can forgive your sins. Zhou Qiucheng cannot protect you forever. One day you will fall into the hands of Huang Tiandao. When that time comes, don't blame us for not considering our friendship and sparing you."

Gu Mingyue's attitude was still condescending, and she looked at Zhang Chen as if she was looking at an ant.

Facing Gu Mingyue's words, Zhang Chen just smiled faintly: "If Huang Tiandao really had such great ability, the world would be named Huang instead of Chai. You are just a rat crossing the street, why are you so arrogant?"

"You..." Gu Mingyue was so angry that she couldn't speak after hearing Zhang Chen's ridicule. Then she snorted coldly and turned away. Only the sinister voice that could not be suppressed came from a distance: "I won't bother with you, a little beast. I will naturally have the opportunity to let you see my power in the future."

Looking at Gu Mingyue's receding figure, Zhou Qiucheng retracted his gaze and fell on Zhang Chen: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you. No matter how powerful Huang Tiandao is, I am not afraid unless the Great Sage Master takes action personally. As long as you stay in Jinling City, I will definitely protect your safety."

Zhou Qiucheng's words were very gentle, making people feel safe after hearing them. Zhang Chen hurriedly said respectfully, "Thank you, sir."

After hearing Zhou Qiucheng's words, Zhang Chen did not refute or explain, but bowed to Zhou Qiucheng very seriously.

He was really grateful to Zhou Qiucheng. Although he was not afraid of Huang Tiandao, Zhou Qiucheng did not know that he was not afraid of Huang Tiandao. The other party was willing to take him in and protect him at the risk of a great crisis, which showed his character.

Zhou Qiucheng sighed at this time: "You have helped me a lot. The kindness between you and me has long been beyond the expression of a word 'thank you'. Please don't be polite to me. If you are polite, it will be awkward."

Zhang Chen nodded upon hearing this: "I will teach you, disciple."

Zhou Qiucheng said at this time: "I only hate that beast Jiang Nan betrayed me at the critical moment, otherwise how could I end up like this today?"

His voice was full of reluctance.

Zhang Chen was speechless after hearing this. Why did Jiang Nan betray you? Don’t you have any idea?
"And that beast Shen Qiu, he got benefits in my Linglong Tower, but he dared to plot against me. I will never let him off. You rest in the academy for a while, I will go hunt down those two beasts!" Zhou Qiucheng's face was ferocious, and it was obvious that he hated Jiang Nan and Shen Qiu to the extreme.

"Sir, are you still holding on? You just left the temple..." Zhang Chen felt a little worried.

"Haha, the reason why I pretended to be injured is just to paralyze those villains who are coveting it secretly. If they want to take the opportunity to do something bad, they can't blame me then." Zhou Qiucheng smiled coldly, and his figure turned into divine light and disappeared on the spot.

"Who could have thought that after the discussion, it would end like this. The Soul-Binding Lamp I prepared in advance was not even used. It's a pity that I didn't know Zhou Qiucheng wanted to trick Chen Sanliang into entering the Innate Water God's formation, otherwise I would have stopped him. After all, the Six Paths of Reincarnation have been taken away by me, and it would be useless for him to go to the Innate Water God's Tomb again." Zhang Chen sighed helplessly in his heart, and the next moment he used the escape technique to disappear, and when he reappeared, he was already outside the Shen family's tomb.

Looking at the dilapidated ruins of the Shen family, Zhang Chen's eyes showed a hint of caution. He wanted to mobilize the water power to interfere with the operation of this innate formation. Unfortunately, Zhang Chen was disappointed. The formation was not under the control of the water power.

"This is a twelfth-order formation, and it's a complete twelfth-order formation. Even if I have the measuring ruler in my hand, it will be difficult to break this formation! Unless there is someone by my side to assist me, just like the people from the Shen family opened the formation and leaked out the space fluctuations, so that I have the opportunity to find the weak point of the space and break it." Zhang Chen was a little anxious: "Now that things have come to this, I can only ask the great immortal Huli for help. The strongest person I know now is only the great immortal Huli." "It's strange, Chen Sanliang has been plotted against, why doesn't the great immortal Huli take action?" Zhang Chen was puzzled.

So he activated the Six-Character Mantra Sticker to sense the breath of the Great Immortal Hu Li, but after sensing for a long time, he did not sense the breath of the Great Immortal Hu Li, as if the breath of the Great Immortal Hu Li disappeared from the heaven and earth and had never appeared in this world.

"This shouldn't be possible! How come the Great Immortal Huli has disappeared? Could it be that this guy has the ability to suppress my Six-Character Mantra Sticker? But that doesn't make sense. How could the Great Immortal Huli have such an ability?" Zhang Chen was full of doubts.

Where has Huli Daxian gone? Why can't I sense any of his presence?

Without the Great Immortal Hu Li, he could not break the innate water god formation, so he could only go back. However, when he was halfway there, passing a mansion, Zhang Chen suddenly stopped and looked towards a courtyard on the corner of the street. He saw Zhou Qiucheng with a gloomy face standing outside the courtyard, staring at it.

"Now that I've found you, where are you two beasts going to escape to?" Chen Sanliang said coldly: "Did I invite you to come out, or did you come out on your own initiative?"

"How did you find us?" The gate of the yard was opened, and Shen Qiu and Jiang Nan walked out of the yard with gloomy faces, looking at Zhou Qiucheng with disbelief.

Since the two dared to plot against Zhou Qiucheng, they must have a way to escape the pursuit safely, and they had already made arrangements in advance. But now the other party has found their traces, how can they not be shocked?

"Hehe, I know Chen Sanliang gave you something to suppress the aura, but you have entered the Linglong Tower and absorbed the aura in the Linglong Tower. The depths of your souls have been contaminated by the aura of the law of 'suppression'. No matter how hard you try to hide, within the scope of the Linglong Tower's divine power, you are like the bright moon to me. To be honest, you two really don't know your place. After you plotted against me, you even dared to play tricks under the lamp. Do you really think you can hide it from me?" Zhou Qiucheng's voice was full of disdain.

After hearing Zhou Qiucheng's words, Jiang Nan and Shen Qiu remained silent.

Zhou Qiucheng looked at Shen Qiu: "I treated you well, didn't I? Why did you betray me?"

"If you bully Jiang Nan, you are bullying me. Jiang Nan is a weak woman. Her reputation is so precious. How can you destroy it like this? Old villain, I will not be a human being if I don't avenge you!" Shen Qiu was not afraid at all and glared at Zhou Qiucheng.

"Zhou Qiucheng, you are unworthy of being a teacher and you are going too far! Doesn't your conscience hurt when you do such a shameful thing? The two Eight Treasures Locking Heart Pills I gave you were all fed to dogs." Jiang Nan glared at Zhou Qiucheng, his eyes filled with anger.

Zhou Qiucheng fell silent after hearing this, and looked at Shen Qiu and Jiang Nan. After a long while, he turned around and disappeared on the spot.

After all, he felt guilty because he was the one who handled this matter in an unkind way.

He ruined a woman's innocence and made her a laughing stock of the world. It was his fault in the first place.

So Zhou Qiucheng turned and left, and only his voice could be heard between heaven and earth: "After today, all the grudges and hatreds between us will be written off. I no longer owe you anything, and you no longer owe me anything. I am no longer your master, and you are no longer my apprentices."

Zhou Qiucheng left, leaving Shen Qiu and Jiang Nan in a daze. After a moment, Jiang Nan came back to his senses and quickly said to Shen Qiu, "Let's go quickly, lest this old guy regret it."

After the two packed their bags, they left in a hurry. Not long after, Zhang Chen walked out from the street, staring at the scene in front of him without saying a word.

"Zhou Qiucheng has practiced the path of being impartial and ruthless for countless years, and he still has a conscience. If it were someone else, Shen Qiu and Jiang Nan would be dead today." Zhang Chen muttered.

Of course, it also shows that he was not wrong about the person. Although Zhou Qiucheng had some calculations in his mind, his nature remained the same.

Zhang Chen quietly returned to the academy and settled down there, thinking about how to break the innate formation and rescue Chen Sanliang.
