As the grand and peaceful voice sounded from the supreme tree, rays of light flashed between the branches and leaves.
Then, these lights interweaved together and finally formed a magnificent hall.
However, because the Tree of supreme-ruler was so huge that its crown blocked out the sun, the magnificent palace seemed small under the shade of the tree.
However, when the young man followed the fruit-like ball of light to the palace, he realized that it was extremely vast. It gave him a feeling that it was even more majestic than the main hall in the center of his palace.
The two ” fruits ” entered the hall together.
The young man looked up and saw a round table in the hall.
A person was already sitting at the table, but his entire body was enveloped in light, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.
In the other ” fruit although it was also blurry, he could at least see the old bird clearly. It was a tall, thin man with a bamboo-like figure.
But now, he couldn’t see anything clearly from the person at the table.
The light was not blinding, but it made him gain nothing.
Was this the so-called Mr. Zun?
Li Gucheng, who was dressed in a python robe, pondered.
He found that he could move freely now, so he walked to the round table.
Li Gucheng turned his head to look at the skinny man, who had also regained his freedom. However, his physical features were still shrouded in the ball of light and could not be seen clearly.
The tall and thin man sat down at the side of the round table as if he was familiar with the place. He sat on the left side of Mister Zun, but he did not sit next to Mister Zun.
Li Gucheng’s gaze lingered on the seat facing Mr. Zun for a long time, then moved away.
In the end, he sat down on the right side of Mister Zun. He did not sit next to Mister Zun, but rather sat face to face with the tall and thin man.
“Welcome, my guest.” Mr. Zun first nodded slightly at Li Gucheng.
“Thank you for your hospitality, Senior,” Li Gucheng’s mouth twitched.
This mister and that tall and thin man were naturally manifested by Chen Luoyang’s mind through the supreme tree.
The Mr. Zun that he had transformed into nodded at Li Gucheng before looking at the tall and thin man that he had transformed into.
When the two of them faced each other, Chen Luoyang felt like he was looking at himself in a mirror.
” Wu Tong, the joke just now wasn’t funny. ” Mr. Zun said softly.
The tall and thin man lowered his head. ” I’m sorry, senior. It’s my fault. ‘
He looked at Li Gucheng and said sincerely, ”’I was just joking with you just now. Please don’t take it to heart. Senior treats every guest, including you and me, well. He’s the most generous elder.”
Li Gucheng’s face twitched uncontrollably.
Big brother, if he is really as generous as you say, why are you so afraid now!
Although your tone was calm and your expression was sincere, why did your body tremble just now?
I saw it, I really saw it!
“Of course, of course.” Li Gucheng forced a smile on his face, not caring if the tall and thin man opposite him could see it.
Anyway, it was fine as long as Mr. Zun could see it.
As for the people who had paid the price mentioned by the tall and thin man earlier…No, it was people who no longer appeared. They must have had an accident somewhere else, so they could not come here again.
Yes, that must be the case!
Don’t ask, asking is an accident!
Anyway, it had nothing to do with Mr. Zun.
“I like to entertain guests, and I hope that my guests will be happy and comfortable.” Chen Luoyang, who had transformed into Mister Zun, said in a calm tone, “”We’re separated from reality by a layer. Everyone, let’s be more casual.”
“Senior, you’re very thoughtful,” Li Gucheng laughed dryly.
Although the other party was gentle and approachable, to Li Gucheng, it was more stressful than his harsh words.
“However, it’s more convenient to have a name.” Chen Luoyang said, ” I originally didn’t have any ideas. However, Wu Tong and the others had decided to name it after a tree, so it became a habit. This young friend, do you have any new plans? ‘
Li Gucheng thought about it and finally decided to do as the romans did.”No need, no need. I’ll just be like everyone else.”
Wu Tong was naturally the code name of the tall and thin man sitting opposite him.
Li Gucheng thought for a moment and said, “I prefer pine trees. Let’s call them ‘pine’ or ‘green pines .”‘
Before he finished speaking, he saw Wu Tong shake her head gently.
Li Gucheng widened his eyes.
When Wu Tong saw this, she shook her head a little more. “”Well … Why don’t we change it to something else?”
“Why?” Just as Li Gucheng finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and his expression changed slightly.
Then, as expected, Wu Tong said vaguely, “”Someone has chosen in front of the pine tree…”
Someone had chosen it, but that person was no longer there.
His position had been vacated, but it was inauspicious…
Li Gucheng suddenly looked depressed.
He pulled himself together and forced a smile at Mister Zun.”Senior, can you allow me to go back and think about it? I’ll give you an answer the next time I come? After all, it’s best not to change it after it’s decided, right?”
If possible, he hoped that he would never have to come to this ruined treehouse again.
Chen Luoyang, who had transformed into Mister Zun, had a very easygoing appearance. ‘”‘0f course you can.”
Li Gucheng felt even more bitter when he saw how easy it was to talk to him.
It was easy to talk about this kind of thing, but it often meant that other things were not easy to talk about.
In particular, the attitude she had just made was clear that she would bring him here in the future.
Chen Luoyang, who had transformed into Mister Zun, turned to look at Wu Tong, who was also a split soul of his, and asked pretentiously, “”Have you gained anything recently?”
Then, Li Gucheng saw Wu Tong straighten her back and answer seriously, ‘”‘1 have some clues. Please take a look, senior.”
After saying that, he presented something to Mr. Zun.
From Li Gucheng’s point of view, that thing was also wrapped in a ball of light, and he couldn’t see its exact appearance.
From the looks of it, everyone’s deal with this Mister Zun was kept secret from everyone else.
However, does Mr. Zun know the details of the deal?
From the looks of it, it was most likely possible…
Moreover, the other party’s self-proclaimed ‘Mr. Zun’ was really intriguing.
After Mister Zun received the item from Wu Tong, he remained silent. A moment later, Mister Zun asked Wu Tong, ‘”When did you get it?”
“Fifteen days ago,” Wu Tong replied.
Mr. Zun nodded slightly and didn’t say anything else. He just waved his hand gently.
Then, a ball of light floated out from the depths of the hall and flew in front of the tall and thin man.
Seeing this, Li Gucheng frowned.
It seemed that the remuneration given by this gentleman did not meet the standard of everyone taking what they needed. Instead, he gave whatever he wanted.
However, he quickly noticed that ” Wu Tong ” was clearly happy.
It seemed that the remuneration that Sir Zun offered was exactly what he wanted.
Had they already agreed on a reward the last time they met, or was this gentleman so resourceful?
Li Gucheng guessed in his heart.
“Thank you, Senior.” The tall and thin man said gratefully.
“There’s no need to be so polite,” said Mr. Zun gently.
” Wutong ” put away her things and sat quietly at the side.
Mr. Zun looked at Li Gucheng and said, ‘”‘Little friend, if you have time, can you help me pay attention to some things?”
Li Gucheng wanted to say that he couldn’t, but he was under the roof. In the end, he chose to admit it first. At least, he had to leave this place first.
“Senior, please instruct me. As long as it is within my ability, I will do my best.”
Chen Luoyang, who had transformed into Mister Zun, said unhurriedly, ‘”‘Little friend, don’t be nervous. Just pay attention to some things.”
“Please enlighten me, Senior,” said Li Gucheng.
“The person who set up the rules for the world below the mortal world. If you have any information about his exact whereabouts, please keep an eye out for me.” said Chen Luoyang.
Li Gucheng was stunned.
Then, his face almost turned green.
The person who set up the rules for the world below the mortal world was the legendary Supreme Martial Artist…
Why was this person concerned about the whereabouts of the Supreme Martial Artist?
Who was he exactly?
Li Gucheng composed himself and said with some difficulty,”Senior, it’s not that I’m trying to avoid it, but I’m really too far away from that existence. I really can’t come into contact with it.”
‘ It’s alright, ” Chen Luoyang said indifferently. ” Little Friend, please help me keep an eye out.
On the other side,”Wutong”, who was also his incarnation, comforted Li Gucheng, “Just be careful at all times. This is a long-term effort. Senior has also said that there is no hurry. Back then, each of us had taken on this task. Everyone should be careful.”
Li Gucheng laughed dryly.
Dammit, it’s fine if you don’t speak, but your voice makes me even more frightened.
After pondering for a moment, he wanted to calm this Mr. Zun down, but also wanted to find out the truth. Therefore, he boldly asked,”Senior, what if…l mean, if I have something, how should I contact you?”
” There’s no rush, ” Chen Luoyang said casually. ” I will invite all of you over as guests once in a while. ‘
Li Gucheng nodded silently.
Chen Luoyang’s incarnation, Mister Zun, asked again, “”Little friend, you seem to have quite a lot of savings?”
Hearing this, Li Gucheng became more energetic and said with a smile,”l definitely can’t compare to Senior.”
Even though he said that, he could not help but let his imagination run wild.
If this Mr. Zun is short of money and wants me to obtain treasures, then he doesn’t seem to be as resourceful as I imagined…
Just as he was thinking this, he heard Chen Luoyang say, “”Then I will use the recipe of the Fu Ning Pill as your reward. You should be able to gather all the ingredients you need.”
Li Gucheng was stunned. He stared blankly at Mr. Zun, who was completely enveloped in the light.
“I prefer to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, ” the other party said gently.
Li Gucheng’s breathing quickened a little, and he finally calmed down.”Thank you, Senior!”
“You’re welcome. You guys chat.” As Mr. Zun spoke, his body disappeared from the hall under the light.
” Wutong “, who was left at the table, looked at Li Gucheng, who seemed to be more enthusiastic, and suddenly laughed.” Mr. Zun’s remuneration has always been generous, but everything here has to be exchanged for something of equal value.. ‘
