Chu Yuntian had just woken up, and his parents, his brothers, and his woman, without exception, had countless things to say to him. But after Chen waved his hand, everyone withdrew in unison, leaving the space for only two people.
"I am dying."
"You may not live long either."
"I saved your life, so you have to do one thing for me."
Chen speaks fluently and without any hesitation.
"What's the matter?" Chu Yuntian had just woken up. His brain was not working properly yet and was in a short-circuited state. He just asked instinctively.
"Kill Gu Jin Tong for me."
"Oh... no! Wait!"
Chu Yuntian instinctively wanted to agree, but fortunately, his short-circuited brain finally became active a little, and Chen's information began to flow into his mind bit by bit.
Who is Chen? He is a martial saint. There are people in this world who he cannot kill, except for martial saints. Even if he cannot kill him, what else can he do? Besides, who is this Gu Jin Tong
etc!
Chu Yuntian suddenly remembered.
He had heard of it; he heard Mr. Zhou San mentioned this name.
Ancient! Modern! Childish!
He had always been curious about how the Zhou family, whose highest level of martial arts was only at the Transformation Realm, could survive under the wrath of Chen, a martial saint, and still plot to take over the two territories of West Province and South Province, and still plot revenge against him and assassinate Bi Shihua. Could it be that all this was because of the existence of Gu Jintong
Moreover, Chen just said that he saved himself, so why did he save himself? Shouldn't he be in a position to hunt him down? Questions circled in Chu Yuntian's mind. He originally wanted to uncover the fog, but he fell into an even greater fog.
Chen was obviously not in a good mood to speak, and his words were extremely short, with a break between each sentence. But for Chu Yuntian, every word he said was almost as powerful as a nuclear bomb explosion.
"It's all in vain. I'm going to die too, but I still have you."
When talking about his impending death, Chen's face showed no reluctance, only a hint of loneliness, "I thought my only regret was that I could not successfully break through the Martial Saint realm, but now it seems that if you can't kill Gu Jintong, I will have another regret."
"Fuck, who the hell is this Gu Jin Tong? Is he the Jade Emperor? If you want to kill him, why don't you just do it yourself? You're so awesome and you can't kill him, so how can I fight him with a kitchen knife?"
In the extremely depressing atmosphere, Chu Yuntian finally roared. Chen's commanding tone one after another left his brain with almost no room for thinking. He felt like a puppet being manipulated, following the pattern set by the other party step by step. He really didn't like this feeling.
Chen shook his head, not paying attention to Chu Yuntian's tone, and continued: "Gu Jintong, he is the most evil martial saint, the Gu King of Southeast Asia. Among the martial saints, Bai is the strongest in terms of strength, but if there is one person you least want to provoke, it is him."
Chen smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I feel so sorry for you, young man. If your opponent is Bai, you will be able to keep your body intact even if you lose to him. But if your opponent is Gu Jin Tong, if you lose, not only will you die in pain, but even your family will become his vessels for breeding Gu."
Chu Yuntian's heart skipped a beat.
Just thinking about it for a while, I finally felt like the clouds had cleared and I could see the blue sky.
No wonder the Zhou family was stirring up trouble behind the scenes, no wonder the Zhou family could withstand the wrath of a Martial Saint, no wonder the Zhou family even dared to attack a provincial governor like Ji Wangtian.
It turned out that the person behind them was actually a martial saint.
Some small countries can't even produce a single Martial Saint. Even though China is a populous country, it seems that there is only one Martial Saint.
"By the way, how did Bai die? Did he die at the hands of Gu Jin Tong?"
Chu Yuntian was curious. As a Chinese, he felt sad for Bai Yi's death. But Chen had just said that Chen's strength was the strongest among the martial saints.
"You can say that, but you can also say otherwise. He died in a joint sneak attack by Gu Jin Tong and Tamamo. In a one-on-one fight, no one could match Bai. If the two of them had joined forces to fight head-on, Bai would not have died even if he was defeated. Although he did not die at the time, he was seriously injured and exiled overseas. When I found him, he was only breathing his last breath."
"I'm just an ordinary person now. I can't help you with anything. With great power comes great responsibility. Bai and I have done what we should do. Now it's time for you to pay back."
Although Chu Yuntian didn't like being led by the nose, he could indeed feel that there was no internal energy in Chen's body at this time. He knew in his heart that what he said was probably right. If he was given time and with the help of the system, he would be very confident to kill the Southeast Asian Gu King. But now, as long as the other party was not a fool, he would definitely not give him time to grow.
Hearing Chu Yuntian's concerns, Chen felt as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Check your body."
Seeing Chen's words were so clear, Chu Yuntian didn't understand. It would have been better if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he was shocked and almost dropped his jaw. He didn't care that he was in a hospital bed at the moment, and almost jumped up from the bed.
Although the internal energy in his body was still the same as before, the strength of his tendons and veins was completely different. If they were ropes before, they were now steel wires. The stronger the tendons and veins, the stronger the internal energy conflict they could withstand, and the stronger the warrior's strength would naturally be.
The martial artists in the transformation realm can already transform external factors into their own internal strength to a certain extent. Why only to a certain extent? It is because their tendons are not strong enough. Of course, if they do not care about the consequences, they can also use external forces without limit, but the consequence of that will definitely be an explosion and death.
But now, Chu Yuntian found that the tendons in his body were not at the same level as the transformation realm. That was something he could not even think about in the short term. His body trembled slightly, and even his voice trembled.
“This… this…”
Chen sighed and said, "Gu Jin Tong's skills restrain me. I can't kill him myself, but I can use my methods to make him tear it off."
Chu Yuntian looked at Chen in disbelief. Chen did not dodge and looked at him frankly. After a moment, Chu Yuntian suddenly raised his voice by several decibels.
"Then why did you chase me before?"
"Even if you help me get promoted to Martial Saint, can I still fight two people at once? One Gu Jin Tong is already bad enough, and there's also that Tamamo. Can't the two of them beat me to death?"
Frankly speaking, Chu Yuntian didn't want to accept this favor. It would be a waste of time. Chen was no match for Gu Jintong, so he put all his eggs in his basket as a last-ditch effort. (To be continued)
