Before the tea was served, all the maids in the hall were killed, but everyone was still frightened and did not dare to slack off at all. The hall was a mess of flesh and blood, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood. A dozen poisoned Chongming Army senior officials were lying on the ground struggling in pain, but no one dared to approach them because their faces were gray and their bodies exuded a strong There was a filthy ghost aura, so everyone was worried that they would be attacked by them if they got close. After all, those maids were manipulated by the ghost clan's tricks.
Du Wu looked extremely ugly. He did not expect that he would be attacked by the ghosts in the Chinese army camp. If it were not for Chu Jun today, the senior leaders of the Chongming Army, including himself, would probably not be able to escape death. More than a dozen people without their leader would have been killed. Wan Chongming's army will collapse without the ghost army attacking. Du Wu glanced at Chu Jun gratefully, secretly glad that he had brought Chu Jun here, otherwise the Chongming army would have been completely wiped out today.
Chu Jun also had a solemn look on his face. These assassins were obviously killers of the ghost clan, and their main target was obviously Hou Xin, not Du Wu, because the guy who attacked Hou Xin was obviously the most powerful, and he could actually kill him from under his own hands. He escaped completely and was able to avoid being locked by his own consciousness. It is certain that this guy is definitely above the handsome level.
"Thank you so much, Master Chu, for coming to the rescue just now!" Hou Xin cupped his fists and saluted. If Chu Jun hadn't resisted, the attack from the ghost clan assassin would have killed him.
Chu Jun said calmly: "General Hou, you're welcome. It's just a simple task. However, since the other party sent people to assassinate General Hou, it is obviously because they are very afraid of General Hou's leadership ability, so General Hou must be more careful in the future. Ghost Clan If the assassin comes once, he can come again!"
Everyone couldn't help but gasped. Chu Jun was right. You must know that this is the most heavily guarded place, and the ghost clan sneaked in to assassinate them without anyone noticing. Thinking about it makes people shudder. If it weren't for Chu this time, Jun, everyone present could not escape death. At this time, everyone couldn't help but admire the palace master's foresight. Fortunately, she invited Chu Jun to take charge. If Chu Jun came one day later, everything would be over.
"Chu Jun, how did you find out that the wine was poisonous?" Du Wu asked.
Chu Jun naturally would not say that his spiritual consciousness could scan into other people's bodies, because this was too shocking and would also arouse other people's fear, so he spread his hands and said: "Because I found out that the maid who poured wine... His eyes were a bit strange, so he felt something was wrong, so he took a closer look at the drink, and found that there seemed to be a faint aura of death in the drink! "
Everyone couldn't help but suddenly realized that it was because of this that Chu Jun lost his mind when he saw the beautiful maid. People who thought Chu Jun was a lecher at first couldn't help but feel extremely ashamed.
"That's it!" Du Wu nodded and said gratefully: "Chu Jun, you saved my life again, thanks to you this time!"
Chu Jun said with a relaxed expression: "I didn't promise you the third thing, so this is just compensation!"
Although he expected that Hou Xin might be a strong enemy of the Chu Army in the future, Chu Jun still rescued him without hesitation, because if the Chongming Army did not have Hou Xin, it would definitely not be a match for the Ghost Army. Once the Chongming Army was defeated, what would happen to him? Tao Feifei's development in Haijiao City is very unfavorable.
Du Wu said solemnly: "Anyway, you saved everyone today. I, Du Wu, owe you a big favor, and I can promise you a condition!"
"Agree to everything?" Chu Jun asked with a smile.
Du Wu nodded: "Anything!"
The expressions of everyone around him changed slightly, this promise was a bit too big.
"Okay!" Chu Jun said with a smile: "I'm afraid I will really have something to ask His Majesty the Palace Master for in the future!"
According to the current situation, if the Chu army develops and Du Wu is still not defeated by the ghost army, then sooner or later there will be a confrontation between the Chu army and the Chongming army. At that time, Du Wu may be able to make use of Du Wu's promise today and let her make a decision. Some concessions.
"As long as I can do my best, I will never refuse!" Du Wu said proudly.
Chu Jun smiled. Since he had already sold his favor, he might as well sell some more. Chu Jun walked to one of the poisoned cultivators, held his wrist and injected Lin Yue's divine power into it, and soon killed him. All the filthy poisons in the body are removed.
Soon, more than a dozen senior officials of the Chongming Army who were poisoned were rescued by Chu Jun. Everyone was even more shocked. The symptoms of these poisoned people were really terrible, but Chu Jun actually cured them with just a few clicks. This move was obviously It's not something ordinary people can do.
The hall was quickly cleaned up. Although the ghost tribe's sudden assassination was unsuccessful, it still killed several generals of the Chongming Army. The originally festive banquet ended hastily.
Because Chu Jun told everyone that he had reversed the reverse spirit vein as soon as he arrived, and then saved everyone's lives, everyone had a great impression of him, and they all came forward to say goodbye to Chu Jun in person before leaving, which made Chu Jun a little bit Tired of coping.
"Qing Dao Ce, go and arrange a place for Chu Qing to live!" Du Wu ordered.
Dao Zhengming stepped forward with a smile on his face and said: "Sect Master Chu, please come with me!"
Chu Jun nodded and followed Dao Zhengming out of the hall. Only Du Wu and Liu Yong, the chief minister of Tiance Palace, were left in the hall.
There are eight chief ministers in Tiance Palace, who are responsible for making suggestions. As the chief minister, Liu Yong is Du Wu's number one think tank and is highly regarded by Du Wu. Everyone in the Tiance Palace knew that Liu Yong was Du Wu's literary daring, and Ye Zhong was Du Wu's martial daring. Ye Zhong was the bodyguard with Qilin bloodline. He followed Du Wu to the 18th floor. Today, Because he was practicing in seclusion, he didn't stay by Du Wu's side.
"Liu Yong, what do you think of Chu Jun?" Du Wu said lightly.
Liu Yong nodded and said: "Chu Jun looks like he is only at the middle stage of Nascent Soul, but if he can kill Chu Xiaotian, his strength is definitely among the top five in the entire Jiuzhou Continent, even stronger than our continent master! "
Du Wu frowned and said, "I don't know how this guy practices. It's too scary!"
Liu Yong stroked his beard and said: "I have told the palace master before that people like Chu Jun will not be willing to submit to anyone's subordinates. This was the case before, and it is even worse now. Therefore, I advise the palace master not to try to put him under the control of anyone." If you take this kind of person under your control, you can only be a friend. Even if you can't be a friend, don't offend him!"
Du Wu secretly sighed. It was ridiculous that she had tried to conquer him before. Even if she had any luck after hearing that he had killed Queen Chu Xiao, it seemed impossible from today.
"With Chu Jun's current strength, he actually doesn't have to obey my orders at all. Why is he still here?" Du Wu asked a little puzzled.
Liu Yong's eyes flashed, and he thought for a while before guessing: "Just now he said that he still owed the palace master something, maybe that's why he came!"
Du Wu also guessed this. When he heard Liu Yong say the same thing, he became even more sure. He felt a faint sense of loss in his heart. From today on, Chu Jun no longer owes him anything. Even if he leaves at any time now, he will There’s not much to say.
Liu Yong seemed to have seen Du Wu's thoughts and said with a smile: "Palace Master, don't worry, Chu Jun is a man who values loyalty. Although he no longer owes the princess anything, he will definitely not give up his son since he is here." If he leaves, as long as the palace owner treats him with sincerity, he will reciprocate with sincerity... I'm afraid!"
Du Wu frowned and said, "What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid that Chu Jun has great ambitions!" Liu Yong said in a deep voice.
Du Wu's heart moved and he quickly asked: "What do you mean?"
"Chu Jun's reputation is growing day by day, and the Tianhuang Sect's strength is even more prosperous, and the industry under the sect is developing very rapidly!"
"Yes, I have also noticed that Li Xiangjun under Chu Jun is a very powerful person. She is in control of Lingxiang Pavilion, but many sects are developing their own industries. Is there anything wrong with this?"
"There is nothing wrong with a sect developing its industry, but the expansion method like Lingxiang Pavilion is a bit... Has the palace master noticed that Lingxiang Pavilion is actually a huge intelligence network, which is different from the Shenji Pavilion that is also spread across various cities? , Shenji Pavilion is just a sales network, and there are various signs that Lingxiang Pavilion is collecting intelligence!"
Du Wu's expression changed. It was understandable for a sect to develop an industry, but it was obviously a big deal to establish an intelligence network covering the entire Jiuzhou Continent. This reminded people of the Immortal Cultivator Guild back then. Ding Yue, the founder of the Immortal Cultivation Guild, became famous by annihilating Wu Tianmen, and finally founded an Immortal Cultivation Guild that left the nine kings helpless. This is very similar to the current Chu Jun. Of course, Chu Jun's reputation is Obtained by directly killing people among the Nine Kings.
"You mean Chu Jun also wants to imitate Ding Yue?" Du Wu said in a deep voice.
Liu Yong said calmly: "I'm afraid I am exaggerating. Now the three realms are in chaos. It is said that times create heroes. The more chaotic the world is, the more people are able to buck the trend and become heroes who can reverse the trend!"
Du Wuying raised her eyebrows energetically, wasn't she doing just that!
"Just relying on Chu Jun's development of the intelligence network can't explain anything!" Du Wu said calmly.
"But my subordinates heard that someone in Minma City is secretly purchasing a large amount of military supplies, and Chu Jun happens to be the city lord of Minma City, and he also has such financial resources!"
Du Wu suddenly fell silent!
"If this is really what Chu Jun did, then my subordinates are sure that he is secretly forming a team, and he is also making plans for Xingchen Continent, so he may have another purpose for following the palace master's order to come and take charge this time! "
If Chu Jun hears the guarantee here, he will be shocked. This Liu Yong is so evil. He can guess so much just based on some clues, and he is still inseparable. This is too awesome!
Du Wu's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice: "If this is really the case, what do you think his purpose is?"
Liu Yong shook his head and said: "I haven't guessed it yet, but as long as he comes with a purpose, sooner or later there will be traces!"
"Then Liu Qing, continue to pay attention and observe!"
"All this is just speculation by my subordinates. I am not sure. Maybe Chu Jun is really here to help the palace master!"
Du Wu nodded and said: "I hope so too, but I would rather believe it than not. If Chu Jun is really planning on Xingchen Continent, he will sooner or later be my enemy, Du Wu. We must do it as soon as possible." Take precautions!”
Liu Yong suddenly felt regretful and quickly reminded: "His Royal Highness the Palace Master has forgotten what my subordinates said before. Even if Chu Jun cannot be a friend, don't be an enemy of him. Don't treat him as an enemy easily before the matter is confirmed." , even if the matter is confirmed, as long as Chu Jun does not harm us, we should not violate him first, and we should be on good terms with him. He is a person who values friendship. As long as we have no conflict, he will definitely not be able to lose face and deal with us! "
Du Wu frowned, nodded and said: "I understand, please step back!"
Liu Yong then backed away with his hands, walked a few steps and then turned back worriedly: "Master, please remember your subordinates' words!"
"I understand." Du Wu waved his hand impatiently.
