Chapter 260

Gu Chen boarded the boat.

There were already many students from the two colleges on the deck at this time, gathering in twos and threes, chatting and laughing happily.

Exquisite pastries and fruit plates are displayed on the dining table, and a specially invited luthier is playing, with a melodious sound.

He got on the boat alone, and he was dressed differently from many students, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"Brother Guan, look!"

On a certain side of the deck, a group of students were chatting. A young man in the middle suddenly saw Gu Chen boarding the boat, and quickly reminded the people around him.

"What's the matter? Who's here again?"

Hearing this, his companions thought it was a genius from the two major academies who had come, so they couldn't help but follow his gaze, and their expressions immediately became strange.

"What a coincidence! I met him again, what is the origin of this person?"

These two people were Gao Qi, a true disciple of the Sulfur Light Sect who visited the Demon King that day, and Guan Xun, a true disciple of the Xuantian Sect.

That day they begged the demon king for a long time but failed to see each other, but when Gu Chen went, they were warmly received. They were resentful, so they were deeply impressed by Gu Chen.

Tonight, Saintess Yao hosted a banquet for young talents from the two academies. Seeing Gu Chen again made them very concerned.

"Brother Gao, Brother Guan, who are you talking about?"

Seeing the strange expressions of the two, a group of people next to them asked curiously.

They followed the line of sight of the two of them, and only saw a young man with an unattractive appearance, who didn't even seem to be a student.

You must know that the two are the true disciples of the two major holy sects, one has reached the perfection of Nirvana, and the other is approaching, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are quasi-kings.

Those who can make them care are usually only those top students from the two colleges.

"Does anyone know that person?"

Guan Xun's eyes flickered, he pointed at Gu Chen in the distance, and asked a few students from Zhenwu Academy around him.

"I don't know him. This person shouldn't be a student of my Zhenwu Academy, right? Judging by his attire, he doesn't seem to be a descendant of some great power."

The students of Zhenwu Academy categorically denied it.

"That's weird."

Guan Xun and Gao Qi looked at each other, feeling even more puzzled.

"Brothers, what is so special about that person that makes you care so much?"

Everyone else was aroused by their curiosity and asked questions one after another.

The two of them then told about the fact that when they went to see the demon king that day, they were turned away and the man was entertained.

"It's strange, the demon king Sun Jinming has a hot temper and has always been unfriendly to our human race. How could he treat this person so politely?"

"Hearing what you two said, I'm afraid this person is not simple!"

Everyone looked at Gu Chen in the distance, and their expressions changed one after another, with solemn expressions in their eyes.

It's true that people can't be judged by appearances, if they didn't listen to what the two of them said, they would definitely despise that person, and it would be bad if they accidentally offended him.

"Since this person is not a student of Zhenwu Academy, and he is so young, who is he and what is his identity?"

Guan Xun and Gao Qi looked gloomy, and were a little brooding about this matter.

"Brothers, what are you talking about?"

At this time, a young man smiled flatteringly and leaned forward.

"Brother Wei, it turned out to be you."

Everyone turned their heads to look, a little disapproving.

The name of this person is Wei Jiechao, and he was originally No. 36 on the Qianlong list of Zhenwu Academy.

But more than a month ago, he didn't know who he was fighting with, and he was beaten to death with a group of friends Qiqi, and his vitality was seriously injured. Since then, he has become the laughing stock of everyone, and everyone rarely interacts with him.

At this time, he took the initiative to come forward. Everyone knew that he wanted to get acquainted with the true disciples of the two holy sects, so they didn't want to pay much attention.

"You are also a student of Zhenwu Academy? Do you know that person in the distance?"

Guan Xun and Gao Qi were depressed and asked casually.

Wei Jiechao was excited, it was rare that these two people took the initiative to talk to him, it was a great opportunity to get acquainted, so he hurriedly followed their gaze.

Seeing this, his face froze immediately. "It's him!"

"you recognize?"

Guan Xun and the others' eyes lit up.

Wei Jiechao's expression became cloudy and uncertain, his teeth itching with hatred. "It's not just acquaintance, it's not an exaggeration to say that there is hatred!"

"Oh? Tell me, which great power is he descended from, or what special status does he have?"

Gao Qi asked quickly.

"Hey, he doesn't have any special status, he's just a little steward of the college's library building!"

Wei Jiechao sneered, thinking of this matter still made him angry.

Because of Ling Xiaoxiao, he and Huo Haishan quarreled in the Shuzang building.

Unexpectedly, Manager Chen thought they were noisy, so he beat them and kicked them out.

After that, they felt unwilling and gathered a group of companions to block him, wanting to avenge him.

Who would have thought that this guy was extremely powerful, and the monkey beside him was even more ferocious. Instead, he taught them a lesson and spent a long time recuperating from their wounds.

He had just healed his injury not too long ago, but had always harbored a grudge about it.

Because a group of people beat a man and a monkey and lost, this matter is too embarrassing, they dare not let others know, so they concealed the news from the outside world.

But there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and everyone knows that they have been severely taught, and they regard it as a joke, but they don't know who did it.

"The steward of the library building?"

Everyone was taken aback by Wei Jiechao's answer, especially Guan Xun and Gao Qi, whose expressions were extremely ugly.

Before, they thought that this person was ordinary, but it was only because the Demon King valued him and he attended the banquet tonight that they guessed that he might have some unknown identity.

But now that Wei Jiechao said this, they couldn't help feeling very angry.

Just a small steward, the demon king would rather see him than them, isn't that obviously humiliating?

"Are you sure what you said is true?"

Guan Xun looked cold.

"It's absolutely true, if the two brothers don't believe it, you can ask Huo Haishan, he can also testify!"

Wei Jie nodded hurriedly, his heart moved.

Judging from the appearance of these two people, it seems that they also have enmity with that steward Chen?

He couldn't help but become active. After suffering a loss last time, he always wanted to take revenge on that steward Chen, but he was not his opponent.

His friends were taught a lesson once, and they all considered themselves unlucky and refused to help him any more.

This time, there are true disciples from the two great holy sects. If they can teach Guanshi Chen a lesson, then his revenge will be avenged.

Moreover, I can also use this to build a relationship with these two people, which is simply killing two birds with one stone!

"Then where is Huo Haishan?"

Gao Qi said coldly.

"Brother Gao wants to find him? Wait, I'll call him, come as soon as you go!"

Wei Jiechao immediately went to look for Huo Haishan enthusiastically, and brought him back within a short while.

But at this time, seeing that the banquet hadn't officially started, Gu Chen casually found a corner and sat down, drinking by himself.

"Do you know that person in the distance? He's just a small steward of the Shuzang Building of Zhenwu Academy?"

Seeing Huo Haishan, Guan Xun immediately asked.

Huo Haishan glanced at Gu Chen in the distance, and nodded quickly. "Yes, Brother Guan, that guy is indeed just a small steward. Many people in the academy have seen him in the library building."
