Chapter 838 An Unexpected "Surprise"?
"Do you know where he is now?"

Obviously hearing the meaning of Zhao Gui's truth, Pei Wende's face changed suddenly, revealing a look of surprise.

Because he never expected that his impulsive behavior would have such unexpected results.

"This guy……"

Zhao Guizhen didn't immediately answer Pei Wende's question, but also blinked in surprise, as if he saw something incredible.

"Actually let him sneak into the Taoist gate?"

Hearing the sound of strings, he could know the elegant meaning, and hearing Zhao Guizhen's words, Pei Wende immediately knew that his speculation was correct, that Xuan Jue's reincarnated body had indeed entered the Taoist sect.

"Where is he now?"

However, facing Pei Wende's questioning, Zhao Guizhen, who looked away, just smiled faintly.

"Of course I know where Xuanjue is."

"However, if you want to know his whereabouts, it's not that simple."

Zhao Guizhen didn't hide his attitude at all, Zhao Guizhen looked at Pei Wende with a smile on his face, as if he was looking at his own incompetent and disobedient junior.

After unloading the burden of the national teacher, Zhao Guizhen's mentality seems to have returned to his youth.

Free and unrestrained, wandering around the world...

Zhao Guizhen at that time was definitely the most "willful" existence in the world.

Gods, buddhas, demons and evil dragons, there is no Zhao Guizhen who dare not provoke, there is no one who dare not offend.

If Zen Master Lingyou hadn't forced his way into Zhongnan Mountain, almost cutting off the incense of the Fulu Dao lineage, Zhao Guizhen would not have been ordered to rush back to Chang'an in the face of danger.

Now, Zen master Lingyou has retired, and the strong men of the older generation are almost dead.

It's really rare for Zhao Gui to meet such a "hard-headed" junior like Pei Wende, so naturally he won't just let him go so easily.

"When your senior brother discovered Linglong's existence, he ran away immediately."

"Although not as good as Senior Brother Ni, he is indeed a relatively good candidate."

Instinctively realized that something was wrong, because Pei Wende suddenly discovered that the development of things seemed to be different from what he had imagined.

Pei Wende originally thought that Zhao Gui was really angry because of his reckless behavior.

But now it seems that this old thing has been waiting for someone to discover the existence of the "Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart".

"What do you want to do?"

Taking half a step back again, when Pei Wende asked this sentence, he was already ready to run away like Huiji.

After experiencing the Chang'an incident, Pei Wende actually didn't have much hostility towards Zhao Guizhen.

Or to be more precise, Zhao Guizhen never showed any hostility towards Pei Wende and Hui Ji brothers, on the contrary, he was more like their elders.

Even in the final battle between Huiji and Zhao Guizhen, the conflict of ideas was far greater than personal grievances.

Therefore, under these conditions, Zhao Guizhen's feeling to Pei Wende is actually somewhat similar to that of his own master—Zhan Master Lingyou.

At the same time, Wen Wende finally understood why his senior brother chose to run away without hesitation after realizing Linglong's true nature.

Because for this kind of elder who has no malice but is full of evil tastes, the first choice is always to hide away as the younger generation.

"As you can imagine, Linglong is indeed my successor."

"I used to think that in order to help Datang return to its peak a hundred years ago, the power of Qin Tianwenshu was indispensable."

With a slight sigh, Zhao Guizhen's tone at the moment was full of regret.

"It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven. I haven't fully reproduced the ability to reproduce ancient astronomical documents, and the waves of the times have beaten me to death on the beach."

"Now, since I am no longer the Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty, this 'Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart' is naturally useless."

"I originally wanted to give it to your brother for safekeeping..."

"However, he has already cultivated the 'golden body without leaks', possesses more all-knowing power than the 'exquisite heart with seven apertures', so he doesn't care about me, this little thing."

When he said this, Zhao Guizhen's voice paused briefly.

"If this 'Seven-Apertures Exquisite Heart' is left alone, this uncontrolled power will be a disaster after all."

"But if you want me to destroy this 'Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart' with my own hands, I won't do it either."

Qiqiao Linglong Heart is Linglong's heart, and Linglong is the shadow cultivated by Zhao Guizhen himself, an existence equivalent to his offspring.

Although Zhao Guizhen was naturally free and easy, he was not so free and easy that he could kill his own child with his own hands.

Under the two difficult choices, Pei Wende's sudden appearance made him see a third possibility.

"If you are willing to take care of this child Linglong for me, I will tell you the specific whereabouts of Xuanjue."

It has to be said that Zhao Guizhen's proposal not only stunned Pei Wende, but even Xiaoqing stared at him dumbfounded.

"Take care of Linglong" as a condition in exchange for "Xuanjue's whereabouts".

This seems to be a burden, but actually it is a gift from Zhao Guizhen.

After all, Linglong is not a real child, it is Zhao Guizhen's shadow, a shadow spirit with the "Seven Apertures Linglong Heart".

To put it bluntly, if the "seven orifices and exquisite heart" is really as miraculous as Qin astronomical documents and leaks, it doesn't matter who takes care of whom!

"Is this true?"

Thinking of this, even Pei Wende couldn't help but feel moved.

Carrying a "universal search engine" with him, Wen Wende felt that even if he didn't complete his cultivation in the future, there might not be many things in the world that he could hide from him.

On the contrary, to drive one sheep is to drive, and to drive two sheep is also to drive.

With the precedent of Xiaoqing, so what if I have another Linglong?
To say that the only thing that Pei Wende is not sure about is how long Zhao Guizhen's "care" is.

ten years?century?Or do you take care of yourself until you die?

With the special nature of the Linglong Longevity Species, Pei Wende didn't doubt whether it could kill him at all.

"a man of his words!"

Without even a moment's hesitation, Zhao Guizhen said in a bold tone that was completely inconsistent with his Taoist temperament.

"What I, Zhao Guizhen, promised, I have not violated until now."

On this point, Pei Wende who already knew Zhao Guizhen's life did not have the slightest doubt.

If it weren't for keeping his promise, the young Zhao Guizhen would not have let go of everything and risked the world to return to Chang'an and assist Tang Wuzong to the throne with his own strength.

Even in the late period when Emperor Wuzong of Tang was bewitched by the monster, no longer believed in Zhao Guizhen's advice, and went his own way to seek the law of longevity, Zhao Guizhen never violated his promise.

Pei Wende's only remaining doubt is, is there really such a good thing in this world?

I and Zhao Guizhen have only met twice, and they were still in a hostile situation at the beginning, why did the other party trust me so much?

[There must be something tricky about this. 】
