"Since there is hope to find clues about your father, go ahead and don't worry about your mother. A man's ambition is everywhere. Don't tell me you have to worry about your mother wherever you go?"

Shen Yushu always has a kind of temperament that has been settled down from world affairs, and Gu Chen can be persuaded with a few words.

"My child understands, but what should you do, mother?" Gu Chen was worried.

"I've stayed in Shen's residence for the past year and read countless poems and books. The ancients said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of volumes of books. Next, my mother plans to take Xiaoqiu to travel around."

Shen Yushu smiled.

"Isn't that too dangerous?"

Gu Chen frowned, if he didn't dare to do anything blatantly at Huangfu's house in the imperial capital, but it's different outside.

You must know that the Huangfu family did not take action against their mother in the past because they needed the Shen family, but now that they have suffered such a big loss in their own hands, I am afraid they will not worry so much.

"Don't worry about mother, it's not that mother has no means of protection."

Shen Yushu was calm and composed.

Gu Chen had great doubts about this, and wanted to say more, but Shen Yushu had made up his mind, and he was not allowed to interfere at all.

Only the son has always listened to his mother, not to mention that in his family, his mother has always had the most say.

"Well, I can promise my mother, but my mother must promise me one thing."

Gu Chen thought for a while, and took off a necklace with a bead on it from his chest.

This bead is called life-changing bead, and it was the magic weapon bestowed upon him by the old heaven emperor when he wiped out all the halls in Qingzhou of Underworld Palace.

This magic weapon is one-time, and it can be used at a critical moment, which is equivalent to an extra life.

This treasure will be rewarded by the Heavenly Emperor in the entire Heavenly Court, and there will never be more than ten, which is considered very valuable.

Gu Chen handed this treasure to his mother and asked her to carry it with him, so that he could rest assured.

Gu Chen said his request, and Shen Yushu readily agreed.

After leaving from his mother, Gu Chen summoned another Heavenly Court Killer and asked him to go to Gongdefang to issue a mission.

He decided to hire one or two gold killers with a lot of money to secretly protect his mother and Xiaoqiu. Only in this way can he be completely relieved.

How valuable a gold killer is, it must be expensive to act as a guard, but for the safety of his mother, Gu Chen doesn't care.

The efficiency of this task is surprisingly high. Gu Chen had just arranged for someone to announce it. He thought it would take a lot of time, but he didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to accept the task in just an hour.

"Gu Daozi, leave this task to me, I will swear to protect your mother's safety."

The applicant was Yang Zhen. These days, she came to the Imperial Capital with her elder brother to participate in missions. Seeing Gu Chen rising like a new star, she has already strengthened her determination to hug his thigh.

When she heard about this mission, she volunteered almost without thinking.

You must know that it is Gu Daozi's mother, maybe the future Emperor's mother!

To have a good relationship with her and protect her safety, Gu Chen must be grateful to her in his heart.

In order to get Gu Chen's attention to her, this task is not necessary to pay!

Gu Chen probably understood Yang Zhen's inner thoughts, and agreed to her to take on this task.

Although this woman is somewhat utilitarian, but because of utilitarianism, she will do her best in dealing with his mother.

In addition, he still knows her well, so everything is more reassuring than finding an unfamiliar golden killer.

The mother's matter was settled, and the biggest worry in Gu Chen's heart was removed.

There is only one person who still needs to say goodbye.

...

In the imperial palace, on the eaves of the princess' bedroom, the sky is full of stars.

The night wind blows gently, bringing with it the coolness of autumn.

"How long are you going to go?"

Ji Lanchu sat with Gu Chen and asked softly.

Night Breeze lifted her hair, revealing her delicate and flawless profile.

Gu Chen didn't respond, he has always been wandering around, how can he explain clearly?

If you can't make a promise, it's better not to give it.

Seeing that Gu Chen didn't speak, Ji Lanchu didn't ask any further questions, and leaned gently on his generous shoulder with one side of her head.

The two were silent, their backs merged into one under the moonlight.

After a long time, the moon has gradually disappeared, and the east is pale, Gu Chen knows that he should go.

When he came to see Ji Lanchu in the palace, he wanted to explain, but he didn't expect that she didn't ask anything, as if she already knew everything.

In the eyes of outsiders, the two now have a marriage contract, but Gu Chen has a big hatred in his heart and deliberately obscures the matter, but she is also understanding and chooses to ignore it.

She is so calm and elegant, knowing the hot and the cold, Gu Chen thought, maybe this is the reason why he cares more about her than other women.

"I should go." Gu Chen said.

Ji Lanchu's head was finally willing to leave Gu Chen's shoulder, and the two stood up, and she straightened his collar for him.

"I have something for you."

She said softly, and took out a pair of jade bracelets from her storage ring.

This jade bracelet is crystal clear, a tiny golden dragon is swimming in one, and a fairy phoenix is ​​flying in the other, it is extremely strange.

"This dragon and phoenix heart bracelet was given to me by my grandfather. It was originally a pair. He said that when I have someone I like in the future, I will give the dragon bracelet to him."

"With this bracelet, as long as we have each other in our hearts, we will never be separated no matter how far we are."

"This jade bracelet is given to you. I hope you remember that there is still me in Luoyang."

Ji Lanchu blushed, and personally put on the dragon bracelet for Gu Chen.

This is equivalent to a token of love, Gu Chen understood.

This girl didn't say anything all night, she pretended to be graceful, but she really wanted to leave, after all, she still couldn't bear it.

"I'll wear it with me."

Gu Chen promised.

"Um."

Ji Lanchu hummed lightly, at this moment the sun was rising, and the first ray of sunlight fell on the two of them.

Embrace each other, warm and silent.

Gu Chen finally left the bustling imperial capital on a quiet morning, and followed Huangfude away.

The time he stayed in the imperial capital was very short, it was only a drop in the ocean in the long history of this capital, but when he left, the tens of millions of people in Luoyang had already remembered the word Overlord.

Almost at the same moment when Gu Chen left the imperial capital, the Jiang family in Yangzhou welcomed an unexpected visitor!

Huangfu Wuji was dressed in the robe of the god of the underworld, incarnate as the emperor of the dark world, and stepped into Jiang's mansion.

And beside him, there were people in bamboo hats and several Tianmingwei.

If someone here saw this scene, they would be extremely surprised, because everyone in the imperial capital thought that Huangfu Wuji was still in his mansion at this moment, deeply saddened by the death of his grandson, and depressed.

"Fellow Daoist Huangfu is here to welcome you."

In Jiang's mansion, Jiang Zishang, the leading prophet of the Ming family, was sitting in his seat, as if he had expected Huangfu Wuji to come, and said calmly.

Huangfu Wuji stepped over the threshold, glanced at his surroundings, and said indifferently. "Where did everyone go?"

"This old man knows that a catastrophe is imminent. In order to avoid implicating the innocent, he has dismissed all the people in Jiang's house in advance. So fellow Taoist Huangfu can rest assured, and I hope you can let them go in the future."

Huangfu Wuji snorted coldly, "Old Prophet is really clever."

"I'm here today to ask you something."

He came to Old Prophet Jiang and said.

"Back then, the old prophet used the taboo supernatural power of astrology to change the fate of Qing Ming who was still in the womb against the sky. He was born with a Taoist body, and he was shrouded in luck and flourished forever."

"I've been grateful to you for that over the years."

"But why did Qing Ming's luck suddenly disappear in this martial arts competition, and my Huangfu family died before it had time to grow."

"This matter makes my heart ache, and I hope the old prophet can explain it clearly."
