The sky-covering technique begins, and the rising moon over the sea shocks Yue Yao.

"I'm not Changge's master, I'm just Dongjun's master."

"Back then, Baili Luochen wanted Changge to become my disciple, but because I was narrow-minded and couldn't recognize a true genius, I ultimately refused."

"Therefore, the most I have with Changge is the small favor I owed Dongjun when I first passed on the sword to him."

Done.

Gu Chen looked at Baili Dongjun again, "As for Changge?"

"In addition to these two enemies today, there is another strong one. Changge went to deal with him."

talking.

Gu Chen looked at Xiao Ruofeng with a half-smile, "If you don't believe me, ask him."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruofeng showed an awkward smile on his face. After all, strictly speaking, he was also an enemy.

It was just because he was not as strong as others that he was thrown out by Baili Changge early on.

However, Xiao Ruofeng still had a deep memory of the man in black wearing a hat and a mask whom he had seen before.

After all, it was difficult for him to forget the other party's faint majesty of a strong man.

However, he didn't know the other party's purpose at that time.

After all, at that time, he neither saw the other party attack Gu Chen nor saw him help Gu Chen.

But now.

Seeing that the other party disappeared together with Baili Changge, it is likely that it is really as Gu Chen said.

therefore.

Xiao Ruofeng nodded to Baili Dongjun, "When I arrived, besides Senior and Baili Changge, there was indeed a mysterious man in black with a powerful aura in this courtyard."

In an instant, Baili Dongjun couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Master, will Changge be okay?"

Gu Chen shook his head.

"Don't worry, Changge is very strong."

And this time.

Xiao Ruofeng took the opportunity to speak to Baili Dongjun tentatively again, "Is Senior Gu Chen really not your brother Baili Changge's teacher?"

Baili Dongjun nodded almost without hesitation.

For a moment, Xiao Ruofeng suddenly realized.

"The other party is actually Gu Chen. My father's previous speculation was correct."

"It's just that I'm afraid he's really going to die."

"After all, if Baili Changge and he weren't master and disciple, then there really wouldn't be any reason for Baili Changge to save him."

In the distance, Baili Changge saw this scene and several black lines appeared on his forehead.

"You're such a fool, you don't even know how to hide it?"

"When someone mentions Gu Chen, do you just nod?"

But soon, Baili Changge chuckled and shook his head.

"For a person like him who has almost no scheming, no one would think he would lie anyway."

"So, this can be considered an accidental discovery, which completely confirms that I have no close relationship with Guchen (baag)."

"The last flaw in Gu Chen's fake death has also been completely eliminated."

"Emperor Tai'an, you can rest assured!"

Gu Chen seemed to have thought of this as well, and smiled helplessly, not knowing whether he should be happy for his apprentice's innocence or feel both amused and sad.

but.

He did not want to expose the fact that he faked his death.

His breath instantly grew weaker again. "Everyone, could you give me and my disciple a chance to be alone together?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ruofeng was silent for a moment, then walked in front of Gu Chen and lowered his head slightly.

"Goodbye, sir."

Then he turned and left without any reluctance.

After all, he actually admired the swordsmanship of Gu Chen, the Confucian immortal of Western Chu.

Now that the Confucian Immortal is about to die and no longer poses a threat to Beili, he chooses to respect him.

Seeing this, Lei Mengsha bowed to Gu Chen, and then left with Xiao Ruofeng.

Before leaving, he looked at Baili Dongjun as if he wanted to say something comforting.

But in the end, he just pursed his lips and didn't say a word.

Wen Hujiu sighed softly, "Xiao Baili, say goodbye to your mother and Changge for me."

Baili Dongjun looked at his uncle, his eyes full of reluctance.

He warmed the pot of wine with a sigh, "I'll come and drink with you next spring. Take care."

Say it.

Wenhujiu finally took a look at Gu Chen, put the wine gourd on his shoulder, and strode away.

At this moment, only Gu Chen, Baili Dongjun, and Baili Changge who was hiding not far away were left in the courtyard.

Seeing this, Gu Chen slightly pushed the wine glass in front of him.

"Dongjun, have a drink with Master."

He had no intention of telling Baili Dongjun about his faked death.

After all, in Gu Chen's eyes, Baili Dongjun is too naive now and cannot hide the truth.

If he knew that he was not dead, others would definitely be able to see the flaw from his reaction.

and.

He also wanted to use his own 'death' to help his apprentice grow up and stop being like a child who had not grown up.

After all, his last name is Baili, so he is destined to bear some responsibilities, which is inevitable.

And the other side.

Seeing this, Baili Dongjun's eyes were filled with sadness and he stared at his master.

"Thank you for your company over the years."

talking.

Gu Chen picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with Baili Dongjun.

Drink this life.

Gu Chen spoke again: "Dong Jun, please go to Tianqi City for Master."

"Brew a pot of peach blossoms and the moon sets."

"Hang it in the highest place in Apocalypse City."

Baili Dongjun's eyes instantly turned red, and he placed his palm on Gu Chen's hand.

"No, Master... I'll take you there, we'll go together!"

"Would you...would you please hang it up yourself?"

Gu Chen smiled calmly and patted Baili Dongjun's hand.

"Why are you crying?"

"Master should have died a long time ago."

"Back then... it was my senior brother who sacrificed his own life in exchange for mine."

"But even so, I am just a spent force, relying on a cup of medicinal wine to keep me alive."

"Dongjun."

“When people carry too much, they are no longer free.”

As he spoke, Gu Chen sighed softly.

“That’s a contradiction.”

"I hope you can be free and unrestrained."

"I also hope that you can become famous and become a true hero."

Gu Chen finally stopped talking.

He knew that these words were enough to arouse the fighting spirit of his disciple.

After all, this is not a true separation of life and death.

But he still felt puzzled and recalled the scene when he first met Baili Dongjun.

At that time, he didn't know that Baili Dongjun was the grandson of Baili Luochen.

Baili Luochen also didn't know of his existence.

But as Baili Dongjun's disappearances increased...

Paper, after all, cannot contain fire.

What's more, Baili Luochen is the Marquis of Qiandong City, so how could he not investigate where Baili Dongjun went?

Think of this.

Gu Chen smiled self-deprecatingly.

He knew all of this even though Baili Luochen had never met him in person over the years and always claimed to be unaware of his existence.

But he wasn't angry.

He was laughing at the impermanence of life.
