Their greatest enemies were the Jiang, Shen, Han, and Yang Families. As time passed day by day, it was as if in the blink of an eye, half a month had already passed. On this morning, when the sky had just begun to brighten, the entire Moon Trace City was bustling with noise and excitement. This was because today was the day that the Illusionary Moon Assembly would begin.
The location of the Illusionary Moon Convention is not in the Moon Trace City, but in the Illusionary Moon Pavilion twenty li east of the city. At the same time, the Illusionary Moon Ancient Tree is also located in the Illusionary Moon Pavilion.
Early in the morning, the various noble clans all left the city and rushed towards the Illusory Moon Pavilion. At the same time, in the Heavenly Stellar Residence, the Burning Sky Ruler, Xiao Chen, Zhang Qi, Sikong Ming, and a Dao King Realm expert were gathered together.
"This time, Zhang Qi, Sikong Ming, and I won't be going. Gu Xiu, bring some people with you and follow Chen 'er."
Gu Xiu was the name of this Dao King Realm expert. In this Illusionary Moon Conference, the Burning Heaven Ruler, Zhang Qi, and Sikong Ming did not plan to show themselves.
Firstly, all the powerful clans participating in the Illusionary Moon Conference only had Dao King Realm experts. Gu Xiu's Perfection Dao King Realm cultivation was enough to deal with them. Secondly, the Burning Sky Ruler and the others didn't want to expose themselves too early. After all, they had just arrived at the Heavenly River Continent. They couldn't casually reveal their background to others, right? For the time being, he still wanted to hide his strength.
Hearing the Burning Heaven Ruler's words, Gu Xiu respectfully bowed and said, "Don't worry, my lord. This lowly one will definitely bring the Illusion Moon Fruit back."
"It's not just the Illusory Moon Fruit. Chen 'er's safety cannot be the slightest bit affected. If anything happens, contact us immediately through the sound transmission talisman," said the Burning Sky Sovereign.
The Illusionary Moon Fruit must be obtained. However, Xiao Chen's safety must also be guaranteed. Sacrificing Xiao Chen for the Illusionary Moon Fruit was a loss that the Burning Sky Ruler would not do.
Xiao Chen respectfully replied. After which, everyone left the Heavenly Stellar Residence and headed towards the Illusory Moon Pavilion outside the city after greeting the Burning Sky Ruler.
Gu Xiu did not bring many people. He only brought two Dao Querying Realm martial artists with him. Including Xiao Chen, there were a total of four people.
Twenty miles was not a long distance. Under Gu Xiu's guidance, the four of them quickly arrived outside the Illusory Moon Pavilion.
Although it was called the Illusory Moon Pavilion, it was more like a huge villa. It was surrounded by white walls, and there was only one main entrance for people to enter and exit. At the same time, perhaps to protect the Illusory Moon Ancient Tree, the entire Illusory Moon Pavilion was enveloped by a formation. It was said that this formation was specially arranged by the Moonless Empire's royal family, and its grade was at the peak of the Heaven Grade.
There was already a group of Imperial Guards standing guard at the entrance. Anyone who entered had to show an invitation letter, and the number of people in the group could not exceed seven. Among them, there were also three Heaven Tier martial artists who had participated in the battle.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Illusory Moon Pavilion, Gu Xiu showed his invitation letter. Next, the imperial guard in charge of the inspection gave the four of them a once-over. When he discovered that only Xiao Chen was at the Sky Human Stage, the imperial guard asked suspiciously, "You are only sending one person to fight?"
"That's right." Hearing the imperial guard's words, Gu Xiu nodded and replied.
Sending only one person to fight? This was really strange. After all, there were three slots. As such, there was naturally no one who did not use up the slots. After all, one more person meant one more chance of victory. Even the Jiang, Shen, Han, and Yang Families had sent three Heaven Tier martial artists, but this Heavenly Stellar Residence had only sent one person to fight.
The imperial guard was puzzled by the Heavenly Stellar Residence's strange actions. Moreover, when did this Heavenly Stellar Residence appear? It seemed that there was no such force in the Moonless Empire before, right? Moreover, there were even Dao King Realm martial artists overseeing it.
Although he was puzzled, it was not a big problem. The reason these imperial guards were here was only for one purpose, and that was to confirm the authenticity of the invitation letter. Since Xiao Chen and the others' invitation letters were real, they could naturally let them pass.
They successfully entered the Illusory Moon Pavilion. Looking around, the entire Illusory Moon Pavilion's environment was extremely beautiful. There was no front or back courtyard, and the entire Illusory Moon Pavilion could be seen at a glance. In the courtyard, there were several man-made creeks. The water in the creeks was clear, and beautiful koi fish swam back and forth in the water.
Beside these creeks, there were many beautiful pavilions standing in great numbers. This was the first time they had seen such beautiful buildings after arriving at the Heavenly River Continent. Moreover, they were built with wood.
"No wonder this place is called the Illusory Moon Pavilion," Xiao Chen said with a smile after looking around the surroundings.
They had already arranged their seats according to the invitation letter. Every force could have a pavilion.
For this Illusory Moon Conference, the imperial family had also mobilized thousands of maids to the Illusory Moon Pavilion. They were specifically responsible for serving the people of the various forces.
Seeing Xiao Chen and the others walk through the door, a rather good-looking maid respectfully came up to them and said, "Are you the lords from the Heavenly Stellar Residence?"
It was obvious that she already knew the identities of Xiao Chen and the others. As soon as she finished speaking, the maid led Xiao Chen and the others to one of the pavilions.
Because the Heavenly Stellar Residence was a new force, although it had a Dao King Realm expert, its status in the Moonless Empire could not be compared to the other powerful clans. Therefore, the pavilion Xiao Chen and the others were in was arranged in the outer area of the Illusory Moon Pavilion. It was a little far from the center of the Illusory Moon Pavilion. However, Xiao Chen did not care about this. In any case, as long as he could obtain the Illusory Moon Fruit, nothing else mattered.
He sat down in the pavilion. There were many spirit fruits and fine wine on the table. He first poured a cup for Gu Xiu and the others before pouring a cup for himself. Gu Xiu and the others were rather fearful when Xiao Chen poured wine for them. However, Xiao Chen did not mind at all. After taking a small sip of the wine, Xiao Chen smiled.
"This is not bad. It's fragrant and mellow. Good wine, good wine."
He was rather full of praise for the taste of the wine. However, just as Xiao Chen finished speaking, an irritating voice rang out.
"Country bumpkin. You haven't even drunk the imperial capital's sake. Heh, what a country bumpkin."
As the voice rang out, Xiao Chen saw Wu De striding over with a single glance. In the beginning, he was rather surprised. With the Wu Clan's strength, they should not be able to participate in the Illusory Moon Gathering because there was no Dao King Realm expert in the Wu Clan. So, why was Wu De here?
When he met Wu De again, Xiao Chen could clearly sense a wisp of dense hatred in his eyes. Obviously, this fellow was still thinking about how to take revenge on him. After putting away the doubts in his heart, a wisp of coldness flashed through Xiao Chen's eyes. This fellow really doesn't give up. I don't want to pay attention to him, but he just has to circle around me like a fly. It's really quite annoying.
