58: Chapter 58 First Steps into Zhongzhou, Hidden Dangers

At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly recognized Gu Chen.

They whispered: "That young man seems to be from the Gu Family! The Gu Family that solved the Eastern Region beast tide a few days ago!"

The crowd was startled, and all eyes turned toward Gu Chen!

The Eastern Region beast tide, with three Eternal Realm Yao Beasts, was driven back by two little girls from the Gu Family riding white tigers—this matter had already spread throughout the entire Eastern Region!

And the young man before them had the character 'Gu' engraved on the waist token at his hip!

"It really is someone from the Gu Family!"

"I heard the Gu Family even dares to tame Eternal Realm Yao Beasts; no wonder they dare to challenge Zhao Ritian!"

"One is a Central Province Emperor Family, the other is a rising star from the Eastern Region; this is going to be a good show!"

The discussions grew louder!

Zhao Ritian frowned upon hearing the words 'Gu Family'.

The Gu Family?

Since when did the Eastern Region produce a Family that dared to challenge an Emperor Family?

The atmosphere was tense, and the air on the spirit ship pier seemed to congeal!

Just then, a deep voice came from the spirit ship: "Zhao Ritian, this is Tianyuan Province, not Central Province. If you want to act wild, go back to your Zhao Family! The spirit ship is about to depart; if you don't leave, wait for the next one!"

Everyone looked up!

Standing at the bow of the ship was an old man with a powerful aura—an expert in the Eternal Realm!

As the guardian of Tianyuan Province, he had more than one Emperor Family power backing him, so even the Zhao Family had to give him some Face.

Zhao Ritian's expression changed slightly. He stared at the old man for a few seconds, then snorted coldly: "Fine! Today I will give Your Excellency some Face!"

He turned to look at Gu Chen, his eyes filled with even colder light than before: "Kid, you are lucky this time! Next time we meet, I won't be so polite!"

He looked at the old man at the bow again: "I will remember today's matter!"

After speaking, he took his attendants onto the spirit ship and walked towards the second-floor cabin.

The moment the cabin door closed, his expression turned completely gloomy.

Growing up, no one had ever dared to speak to him like that!

Today, he had encountered someone who didn't fear death!

The attendants didn't dare to breathe loudly, serving him cautiously.

A personal guard stepped forward and made a beheading gesture.

"Young Lord, shall we send people to deal with those three ignorant things now?"

"No rush!" Zhao Ritian raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Those three can't run! Once we reach Central Province, we can just find an opportunity to deal with them."

He said it lightly; he had done such things many times.

As for the Gu Family, hehe! He hadn't even heard of them!

There was absolutely no need to take them to heart!

Moreover, his Great Sun Sacred Body should suppress everything in the world!

He didn't need to put anyone or any power in his eyes; he shouldn't let it affect his Great Sun Sacred Body's state of mind, as that would be bad for his path to the Emperor Realm.

The next moment, his brows suddenly furrowed!

A faint, lingering fragrance drifted through the air, barely perceptible!

Yet, it made his Great Sun Sacred Body inexplicably restless!

His blood accelerated, and his Qi surged!

It was as if he had encountered some kind of natural, compatible object!

To think it could make his Great Sun Sacred Body so restless!

Zhao Ritian followed the scent, and his gaze landed on the woman in white in the front row of the queue!

She wore a veil, so her appearance couldn't be seen, but that slender back and that special fragrance meant she must be exceptionally beautiful.

Furthermore, it was making his Great Sun Sacred Body more and more restless!

If he could get her, his Great Sun Sacred Body might reach Major Achievement!

"Interesting!" Zhao Ritian withdrew his gaze, a playful smile curling the corner of his mouth.

"My Great Sun Sacred Body has actually reacted to a woman! If I can get my hands on her, through Dual Cultivation and mutual complementation, my Great Sun Sacred Body might reach Major Achievement!"

The guard understood and was about to reply.

Zhao Ritian continued to speak to himself: "Once the Sacred Body reaches Major Achievement, becoming a Quasi-Emperor in the future is just around the corner! Perhaps the legendary Great Emperor Realm is not impossible! There must be a secret on that woman!"

The guard nodded: "This subordinate will go and investigate the woman's background immediately!"

"Investigate carefully, don't alert the enemy!" Zhao Ritian closed his eyes.

"As for those three ignorant things, let them live a few more days. Once we get off the ship, we can just find a reason to kill them."

On the deck!

Li Shuangxu lowered his voice: "Young Master Gu, wasn't that too impulsive? You offended a power of this level as soon as you arrived. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us in Central Province later!"

Gu Chen's tone was indifferent: "We are here for training; we were going to fight anyway, so who cares who we fight? So what if it's an Emperor Family? Can an Emperor Family just be unreasonable?"

Li Shuangxu opened his mouth, finding he couldn't refute it.

But this world is not a world that reasons; it is a world that talks about fists and background!

When an Emperor Family's fist is bigger than yours and their background is deeper, you try to reason with them?

"But!"

Gu Chen patted his shoulder: "There are no 'buts'! Shuangxu, you are good at everything, but you are too cautious. If you want to fight, just fight. The Old Ancestor said, just go for it!"

Li Shuangxu fell silent!

It seemed people from the Gu Family never knew what it meant to be cowardly!

Are all Gu Family members this fierce?

And what he didn't know was that Gu Chen even dared to beat his own father, Clan Leader Gu Tianhua, let alone a stranger?

Just go for it!

Acting on the principle of: Since we're here, just go for it!

At this time, Gu Qingshan patted the jade token at his waist: "We still have a protector! If we can't solve it, we'll just tell the Old Ancestor!"

Li Shuangxu's mouth twitched, completely giving up the idea of persuasion!

That makes sense; no matter how big the trouble is, the Gu Family Old Ancestor has our back!

The spirit ship sailed through the Void Realm cracks for over ten days. The journey was relatively smooth, and the spirit ship docked at the pier on the border of Central Province.

Gu Chen and the others stepped onto the land of Central Province, treading on a completely unfamiliar world.

It was the first time the three of them had come here.

In the distance, cities stood in great numbers, and each one was more prosperous than the largest city in Qingyun Province!

Li Shuangxu took out a map: "The registration point for the Genius Tournament is in Tianque City, three days' journey from here."

Gu Chen and Gu Qingshan nodded.

The three of them soared into the air and flew in the direction marked on the map!

Behind them, at the spirit ship pier, the woman in white also disembarked!

She watched the direction where Gu Chen and the others disappeared, remained silent for a moment, and then followed them with two maids.

In the shadows of the pier, Zhao Ritian slowly walked out!

A cold smile hung on the corner of his mouth, like a hunter watching prey slowly walk into a trap!

"Is everything ready?" he asked.

The guard beside him nodded: "The people sent out have already followed those three ignorant things. As for the woman, this subordinate has also found out her background!"

"Speak!"

The guard lowered his voice: "The woman in white is surnamed Ru, called Ru Shuang, and is from the Ru Family! She is also third on the beauty ranking!"

"Which Ru Family?"

"The Ru Family of Qitian Province. They once produced a Quasi-Emperor, but later declined and are now just a second-rate Family! However, she herself possesses a special Physique: the Taiyin Spirit Body!"

"This Physique is extremely rare. If one can engage in Dual Cultivation with her, regardless of one's own Physique, one can comprehend deeper Heaven and Earth Laws! At the same time, it increases one's cultivation!"

Zhao Ritian's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and the smile on the corner of his mouth grew richer!

Taiyin Spirit Body?

And she is third on the beauty ranking!

No wonder she could make my Sacred Body react like this!

If I can engage in Dual Cultivation with the Taiyin Spirit Body, my cultivation can rise by at least two small Realms!

With the Sacred Body at Major Achievement, reaching the Quasi-Emperor Realm is within sight!

Even the Great Emperor Realm is not impossible!

"Chase them for me!"
