Chapter 521 Yuan Shang finally achieved his goal
Paimeng scratched his head while being watched by Gu Chen:
"New moon? New moon? Who is that?"
Still maintaining a meaningful expression, Gu Chen shook his head:
“I don’t know who Xinyue is either.
I have a guess, but I'm not sure, and maybe my guess is wrong."
Having said that, some things can be said here.
Looking at Paimeng's confused eyes, Gu Chen smiled slightly and changed the subject.
He couldn't help but look at Yuan Shang next to him:
"Okay, it looks like today's incident is over.
Sky Island was treated so badly but didn't even say a word. It has lost all its dignity.
Yuan Shang, what are your plans next?"
Yuan Shang was a little confused by the question:
"Ah? What are my plans?"
Then he came back to his senses and looked at Gu Chen pitifully:
"Gu Chen...
Big Brother Gu Chen, Big Boss Gu Chen, Master Gu Chen...
Can you give me that book? It was my original intention!"
Gu Chen immediately looked at Yuan Shang with contempt:
"Are you sure you want to take the book of Sun and Moon?
I simply recited some of its contents in the Abyss Palace, and I attracted the Frost Sky Nail.
If you really dare to bring this book of Sun and Moon History to the Abyss Legion, are you sure you won't cause more trouble for your princess?"
"Uh……"
Yuan Shang was speechless for a moment. He felt that what Gu Chen said made a lot of sense.
However, Yuanshang was still unwilling to accept it.
Why did I go through all this trouble? Wasn't it just for this book about the past?
In the end, you get the book? You get all the benefits? I, the one who paid the most, didn't even get a piece of paper. How can this be justified!?
So, Yuan Shang could only look at Gu Chen with a resentful expression.
That look was as if she was looking at a heartless man.
To be honest, Gu Chen got goose bumps on his arms when Yuan Shang stared at him with such a disgusting look.
He rubbed the goose bumps on his arms and waved his hands helplessly:
"Never mind, I really lost to you.
I can’t give you the things that happened before the sun and the moon. It’s better to keep such a dangerous thing with me.
But I can lend it to you so you can take a look at its contents.
Read it right here and return it to me immediately after you finish reading it.”
Seeing Gu Chen's reassurance, Yuan Shang was happy:
"Alright, alright, this is fine too."
Under Yuan Shang's eager gaze, Gu Chen took out the book about the past of the sun and the moon and handed it to Yuan Shang.
After Yuanshang took it, he immediately opened the book and started reading it, and he was very excited.
Seeing him like this, Paimeng was speechless:
“Well… who would have thought?
I thought the Abyss Cult and the Abyss Legion were all a bunch of terrifying and paranoid people, but who would have thought there would be such a guy among them? "
Gu Chen couldn't help but shrugged:
"Perhaps this is also the reason why Her Royal Highness the Princess particularly favors him?"
"Extraordinary favor?"
Hearing these four words, Paimeng couldn't help but imagine such a scene in his mind.
Her Royal Highness Ying, the Princess of the Abyss, sat alone on the dark throne with a cold expression. Beside her, a group of apostles of the abyss knelt on one knee in front of her to show their submission.
Among the countless figures, there was only one person who, although he did not kneel on one knee, was groveling and trying to please Her Royal Highness the Princess beside the throne, and Her Royal Highness the Princess didn't even bother him!
There is no doubt that this person is Yuan Shang.
Thinking of this, Paimon's eyebrows became more black:
"Uh... I feel like this guy has the temperament of a flatterer."
Although Gu Chen and Paimeng were gossiping quietly, Yuan Shang heard it.
Yuan Shang, who was reading, couldn't help but raise his head from the book for a moment:
"Did you two misunderstand something?
I am not a flatterer of Her Royal Highness the Princess, nor do I have the favor of Her Royal Highness the Princess. I am just an unimportant marginal figure in the Abyss Legion!"
Gu Chen couldn't help but sneer:
"You're talking nonsense, do you think I believe you?"
After smiling, Yuanshang didn't say anything else and continued to read the book.
Soon, he had read the entire story from beginning to end and memorized all its contents.
After reading it, Yuan Shang clicked his tongue and felt very satisfied:
“So that’s what happened, many mysteries have been solved.
This is definitely incredible information, I must report it to Her Royal Highness the Princess immediately!"
Gu Chen and Paimeng beside them couldn't help but complain in their hearts.
And you still say he's not a sycophant? And you still say he's not favored?
Just look at your lackey-like appearance. Who would believe you when you say you are a marginal figure in the Abyss Legion?
I have finished reading this book.
After reading it, he threw the story of the past back to Gu Chen, his expression becoming serious and polite:
"In that case, my goal is accomplished.
Lord Gu Chen, and Paimeng.
Meeting you this time was really an accident, and I encountered a lot of scary things, but overall, the result was still good.
I hope we can meet more often and cooperate more in the future."
As he spoke this, a flash of fire appeared on Yuan Shang's body.
This guy finally changed from the appearance of a weak scholar like Inazuma to his original appearance as the Singer of the Abyss!
That’s right, only now has he truly returned to his original appearance!
Looking at his impressive appearance, Gu Chen didn't care, but Paimeng was a little surprised.
The little guy opened his mouth into an O shape:
"Wow!
I knew you were no ordinary guy, but I didn't expect you to look really extraordinary!"
Yuan Shang smiled and opened the blue-black space door behind him:
“I took it as a compliment.
See you later, both of you."
As he said this, Yuan Shang floated away.
However, just as he was about to retreat into the blue-black space door, Gu Chen stopped him slightly:
"and many more."
Yuan Shang inevitably stopped:
"Ah? What's wrong?"
Gu Chen was a little angry:
"What else happened?
From the beginning to the end, you were the shogunate officer who controlled Kujo Jinya, instigated their defection, had them invade Kaijima, and even captured and interrogated the miko of the Coral Palace...
You've done so much, and you're just going to run away without even saying sorry?"
"Uh...I..."
Yuan Shang was really speechless for a moment.
Helpless, he could only rack his brains to start shirking responsibility:
"I just... had no choice!
And although this incident was a big deal, no one suffered any substantial harm from beginning to end.
Even if I invaded Kaijima using the defected shogunate troops, this so-called invasion was simply a joke.
From the beginning to the end, I controlled them and did not harm any innocent people!
At most, it scared a lot of people.
You should know that I am from the Abyss Legion!
Compared to my other colleagues, I already have a good conscience, okay?"
