"Little prince?"
When the young palace master Leng Ling heard these three words, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
If it was the young prince, it would be understandable.
Zhenbei Palace is the absolute overlord of the entire northern border of the empire. Its status and deterrence in the northern border of the empire are even higher than that of the royal family.
In the northern territory of the empire, you cannot disrespect the emperor's order, and you must not disrespect the order of the king of Zhenbei!
But now, the King of Zhenbei has retreated behind the scenes, and all important military and political affairs within the territory of the royal palace are coordinated by the young prince.
It can be said that in the current Zhenbei Palace, the young prince is the core of power!
"The young prince sent someone to pass the news and turned a blind eye to the matters on the eighth floor."
A middle-aged bronze protector whispered an explanation in the ear of young hall master Leng Ling.
Leng Ling nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
While deep in thought, he raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Gu Chen, vaguely understanding something.
He also heard about Gu Chen's destruction of more than 2,000 students from Youlan Academy in the Xingyun Palace.
At the same time, he also knew very well that although Youlan Academy did not belong to any force in name, the shadow of Zhenbei Palace was very strong behind it.
Most of the students who graduated from Youlan Academy will serve for the Prince of Northern Xinjiang.
Gu Chen killed more than 2,000 Youlan Academy students, which seemed to be a loss for Youlan Academy, but in fact, the biggest loss was caused by Zhenbei Palace!
Thinking about it this way, the words sent by the young prince are not surprising.
Although their Wuling Palace is not under the control of the Zhenbei Prince's Palace, they still have to do business in Northern Xinjiang. They can do without orders, but the young prince personally sends people to deliver the message, so he still has to give face!
Gu Chen's eyes have always been on Leng Ling, the young master of Wuling Palace, and others.
Leng Ling's reaction was also completely caught in his eyes.
Although he didn't know what his subordinates said to Leng Ling, it seemed that it was not something beneficial to him.
He shook his head gently, and then looked at Qing Su'er, the girl who was the leader of the five people from Lingmeng Academy.
He said, "Girl, what's going on here has nothing to do with your Reimu Academy. It's better not to get involved and go back!"
Lingmeng Academy, a third-rate academy, and even Luoan Academy were not as good as each other. They had no right to speak in front of behemoths like Wuling Palace.
No matter how much you say, it will be in vain and may bring you trouble.
Qing Su'er seemed to understand, and finally nodded to Gu Chen.
Without saying anything more, he took the four girls behind him and returned to their training room on the eighth floor.
The door to the training room has just been closed.
A girl behind Qing Su'er said: "Senior Su'er, do we really not care about Mr. Gu? Those people, the young master of Wuling Palace, clearly want to target Gu Chen!"
Another girl also said: "Yes, if it weren't for Mr. Gu, we wouldn't be able to get a training hall in Xingyun Palace!"
"Of course we can't ignore it!"
As Qing Su'er spoke, she took out a communication crystal. Soon, a voice came from the other side of the communication crystal: "What's wrong, Su'er?"
"Miss, do you still remember Gu Chen we told you before? He is now in the training room on the eighth floor of Wuling Palace and is being targeted by people from Wuling Palace. Can you come forward and come?"
"Martial Spirit Hall..."
Upon hearing these three words, the voice on the other side obviously paused, as if feeling troubled.
But in the end, he still said two words: "Wait for me!"
…
"They should be here..."
Leng Ling, the young master of Wuling Palace, murmured to himself after hearing what the Bronze Protector said.
The middle-aged protector was a little confused and asked: "Young Master, what are you talking about..."
However, before his questioning could finish, he heard several footsteps coming from the bottom of the stairs behind him, approaching from bottom to top.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Leng Ling's mouth, and then he waved his hand directly and said: "Let's go down and wait."
After saying that, the three of them walked downstairs.
The three of them were passing by the three young people coming up from downstairs. Leng Ling just glanced at the three young people and continued downstairs.
"Thank you, Young Master, Palace Master!"
The three young men nodded knowingly and bowed their hands in front of their backs.
At this time, everyone on the eighth floor was still in shock and confusion, and they couldn't understand why Leng Ling suddenly left with two bronze guardians.
After all, things here are not finished yet.
"Could it be that you don't care anymore?"
Everyone was in shock and doubt, looking at Gu Chen one after another. Some even signaled Gu Chen to leave here quickly.
"Master Gu, let's go quickly!"
"When Master Leng Ling comes back soon, there may be some trouble."
Leng Ling's attitude just now was already obvious. Even if what happened here was not Gu Chen's fault, it was Gu Chen who killed him after all!
It is very likely that when Leng Ling returns, he will have to deal with Gu Chen.
However, in the face of these reminders, the young man did not react at all.
His footsteps didn't even move.
His eyes were always looking in the direction of the stairs. Even from a long distance, he could feel the inexplicable coldness emanating from the young man.
This coldness is more like murderous intent!
"Murderous intent?"
Everyone who felt this murderous intent subconsciously followed the young man's gaze and looked over.
After a while, footsteps were heard, and three figures appeared in everyone's sight one after another.
The three young men all wore the badges of Youlan Academy.
"People from Youlan Academy!"
The moment they saw the three people, everyone suddenly realized. No wonder Master Leng Ling led people away. It turned out that people from Youlan Academy were here.
Obviously, these three people from Youlan Academy came here with the tacit approval of Master Leng Ling.
And there is only one purpose, no need to think about it, to kill Gu Chen!
"Gu Chen, I don't know who gave you the courage to come to Zhenbei King City!"
Along with the appearance of three figures, a voice with endless cold murderous intent suddenly entered the eighth-floor corridor.
A cold and arrogant young man who was the leader of the three pointed at Gu Chen: "Feng Yuan, he is Gu Chen, right?"
Feng Yuan nodded: "Yes, Boss Qingfeng, he is Gu Chen!"
As he spoke, Feng Yuan looked directly at Gu Chen with a slightly ferocious look: "Gu Chen, if you can walk out of this Wuling Palace alive today, I will take your surname!"
"If I remember correctly, your name is Feng Yuan, right?"
Gu Chen looked at the speaker calmly, with a faint smile on his lips: "You seem to have forgotten how Luo Feng, Meng Yuan, Long Quan and others died in my hands."
Feng Yuan's face stiffened and he shouted angrily: "Today, I promise, you will die a hundred times worse than them!!"
But as soon as his words came out, he was suppressed by the breeze in front of him.
Qingfeng shook his head and said: "Hard words will only make you appear incompetent!"
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Chen with indifferent eyes and said slowly: "You were the one who used the ancient beast Blood Dragon to destroy the Youlan Temple of my Youlan Academy, right?"
But the only person who responded to him was: "You talk a lot of bullshit!"
"Buzz!"
The moment the young man's voice fell, a roaring sound of swords suddenly erupted in the corridor of the eighth-floor training room.
