Chapter 144
Gu Cheng was not unfamiliar with half-demons.
The Jiao horses that were abundant in Tianshui County had a thin bloodline of Jiaolong, and could barely be considered a kind of half-demons.
However, these beasts had mixed bloodlines and were not intelligent, so they were just a means of transportation at best.
They were completely different from humans like Ximen Yu who had demon bloodlines.
"So, are his purple eyes and the strange and bewitching piano music illusion also related to his demon bloodline?"
"With the infinite possibilities of humans and the innate talents and lifespan of demons, this half-demons should not be underestimated..."
Gu Cheng walked down the stage slowly as his thoughts surged.
As soon as he landed, a smart little white bird flapped its wings and landed lightly on his head.
It was the bird demon servant of the Spirit Bird Venerable.
"Gu Cheng, you did such a great job!"
The feathers of the Spirit Bird Venerable were so excited that they fluffed up, like a snowball with hair blowing up. Standing on Gu Cheng's head, shaking his head, he was so cute:
"That little beast should have died long ago! You killed it in this piano competition, which not only strengthened the reputation of our Demon Suppression Division, but also eliminated harm for the people!
After returning, I will notify the Foreign Affairs Hall and record a great merit for you!"
"Thank you, Venerable."
Gu Cheng thanked him softly, and then asked:
"Who is that Young Master Nanyue? Has he done many evil things before?"
"Humph! That guy has done a lot of dirty things..."
A trace of disgust flashed in the eyes of the Spirit Bird Venerable. She snorted coldly and told him about the evil deeds she knew.
When Gu Cheng heard that the guy was an old pervert who ate both meat and vegetables and both men and women, even though he was always calm, he couldn't help but change color.
"Fuck!"
Gu Cheng cursed inwardly. No wonder the guy's eyes and tone were so wrong at that time, giving people goose bumps.
So he was attracted by his beauty and regarded him as "prey"!
Fortunately, his mind was strong and he could withstand the seductive music of Master Nongyu. Otherwise, if he was not careful, wouldn't he end up with "man on man"?
When he thought of this, Gu Cheng suddenly felt a chill, cold sweat on his back, and the fear in his heart was even stronger than facing ten innate monsters at the same time!
"Fuck, just let him die with a headshot, it's really a bargain for him..."
Gu Cheng took a deep breath, his face was extremely ugly.
If he had known that Ximen Yu was actually thinking such a disgusting idea, he would have chosen an extremely cruel way to make him regret coming to this world!
"Gu Cheng, that Ximen Yu is not some random cultivator without any background. He comes from the Ximen family in Yunzhou.
Although this family is low-key and rarely appears in the secular world, its power should not be underestimated."
The clear voice of the Spirit Bird Venerable was solemn. It used its wings to gently comb its snow-white feathers and added:
"Today you killed a direct member of their family. Although there is a death certificate as evidence, this is equivalent to slapping the face of the Ximen family in public.
When they know about this in the future, they will inevitably take advantage of the situation and cause trouble for you openly or secretly..."
"Oh? Is this Ximen family so powerful?" Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows with a curious look on his face.
"Of course!"
The Spirit Bird Venerable nodded solemnly and explained:
"The power of the Ximen family's illusion is no weaker than the Xu family's thunder magic, but they have always been low-key and like to do things behind people's backs, so they are not well-known."
"Although the power of the Demon Suppression Division is large, the personnel are still too scattered, and many things are beyond their reach."
"In this small piece of land in Tianshui County, they dare not act rashly, but when you go to Yunzhong County in the future, you must be careful."
After giving these instructions, the Spirit Bird Venerable said no more and flapped his wings and flew away.
Gu Cheng looked at the back of the little white bird going away and couldn't help falling into deep thought.
"Ximen family? Direct lineage members? So, are all their family members half-demons?"
Thinking of this, Gu Cheng sneered.
What a good relationship!
With the kryptonian life system, he can devour demon cores unscrupulously and improve his strength.
After experiencing the tempering of countless demon illusions, his mind has long been extremely pure and solid, and he is least afraid of illusions.
If the Ximen family knows what's good for them, it would be best to stop here.
But if they really dare to come to him without knowing whether to live or die, then they really think his life span is not enough...
At this time, Tang Lingyu, Xu Wenying and Hu Qingyun walked through the crowd and walked towards Gu Cheng with a smile on their faces.
"Chief Gu, congratulations on your victory."
"Gu boy, you are really promising now!In less than half a day, your name will spread throughout Tianshui City!"
"Young Master Gu, I'll host you tonight. How about we go to Zuixianlou to celebrate?"
The three of them expressed their congratulations and praise to Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng smiled slightly and was about to say something modest.
The crowd nearby suddenly retreated to both sides like a tide, leaving a wide road.
Gu Cheng looked up and saw Li Longxiang, the owner of Chenlong Martial Arts Hall, walking towards him with big strides, surrounded by a group of disciples.
Li Longxiang walked up to Gu Cheng, his eyes stayed on him for a moment with complicated eyes, then he laughed and bowed his hands to congratulate:
"Hahaha, Master Gu is indeed a genius! At such a young age, he has such amazing attainments in the art of playing the zither. Today, I have broadened my horizons! "
As soon as Master Li finished speaking, Hu Qingyun on the side could not help but said in a sarcastic tone:
"Stop talking nonsense here, Master Li, where is the prize you promised to give to Young Master Gu?"
The Chenlong Martial Arts School had previously humiliated him, which had made him feel angry, so he naturally took the opportunity to mock him.
Xu Wenying on the side also sneered, and his sharp eyes like a hawk swept through the people in the Chenlong Martial Arts School, with a rather unfriendly look:
"Old man Li, I am willing to accept the loss. You are not going to deny what happened today, are you? "
Under the fierce gaze, the disciples of Chenlong Martial Arts School felt their breathing stagnate. It was clearly the coldest time of the year, but cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
For a moment, the originally lively and festive atmosphere became subtle, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.
"Hehe, don't be impatient, my two lords..."
Li Longxiang smiled awkwardly. Facing the pressure from the two generals of the Demon Suppression Division, he could only swallow his anger.
"It is only natural that I am willing to accept the loss. As the owner of Chenlong Martial Arts School, how can I not afford to lose? "
After that, he fumbled in his wide sleeves for a moment, took out a green storage bag embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, and handed it to Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng took the storage bag, poured his mind into it like mercury, and carefully explored it.
The storage bag was not big, and there were only two items in it.
One of them was an ancient zither, which was as black as ink, with only the strings shining with silver-white luster.
On the zither, golden dragon patterns swirled and wandered, and a simple and vigorous aura came to the face, with a hint of Zen flowing, and it was obviously not an ordinary product at first glance.
Gu Cheng's heart moved, this ancient zither and the image of Feng Sanshi's soul were very similar. The "Dragon Roar of Dead Tree" described by Gu Cheng is exactly the same, so I think it is this thing.
The other thing is a baby fist-sized, milky white, warm jade pendant.
The jade pendant is crystal clear, with a sword carved on it, and a lifelike dragon coiled around the sword body, as if it wants to break through the air.
Gu Cheng took it out and held it in his palm. It was warm to the touch, and the sound of dragon roar came into his ears.
He thought about it, and separated a wisp of consciousness to explore it, and roughly browsed the contents recorded in it.
The next moment, a new prompt suddenly appeared on the system panel:
[Innate (Treasure) Dragon Slaying Sword Art: Not yet started]
