Seeing their shocked expressions, Bei Wangting laughed self-deprecatingly. "The world only knows Bei Wangchen. No one knows an unknown prince like me."
Duke Beixin had four sons and five daughters. The most famous one was Bei Wangchen.
When Bei Wangchen was mentioned, everyone only thought of Bei Wangchen.
As for the other princes and princesses, no one mentioned them.
Xue Guanyin questioned, "Why would the prince of Duke Beixin end up like this? Furthermore, didn't the Duke of Beixin use the Cloud Stairs? Why would you take the Ghost Marsh route? "
The Duke of Beixin knew about the traps and dangers of the City Amongst the Clouds. That route was far less dangerous than the Ghost Marsh.
"I fell from the City Amongst the Clouds." Bei Wangting's eyes were filled with hatred.
Xue Guanyin's gaze shifted. "Did something happen in the City Amongst the Clouds?"
"Yes! Evil creatures invaded the City Amongst the Clouds, surrounding and killing the Duke of Beixin. "Bei Wangting frowned. The black steel needle between his brows looked exceptionally ferocious.
Xue Guanyin asked, "What were the casualties?"
"Very tragic!" Bei Wangting sighed deeply, clenching his fists. "Third sister, fourth brother, fifth brother, and eighth sister all died in battle!"
Four out of the nine princes and princesses had fallen!
Su Yu's expression changed. What were the evil creatures trying to do?
Duke Beixin would surely be furious after losing two sons and two daughters.
Who would have thought that the seemingly ordinary trip to the Taixu Faction would encounter such a sudden change?
"What about Bei Wangchen? And his followers? "Xue Guanyin's eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Him? Hehe … "Bei Wangting let out a complicated laugh." Who in the world can deal with Bei Wangchen? He is fine, and his followers are unharmed. "
A look of disappointment flashed across Xue Guanyin's eyes.
She had hoped that the traitor Empress Ziwei would get what she deserved.
"What a pity." Xue Guanyin wrinkled her nose. "Is the one chasing you an evil spirit?"
"Yes!" Bei Wangting said. "An evil spirit at the level of a Divine Warrior of Heaven and Earth."
"What kind of creatures are they?" Xue Guanyin asked curiously. "An unknown Divine Warrior of Heaven and Earth under the control of the Dayu Empire wantonly slaughtered the children of the princes."
Bei Wangting said in a low voice. "It's the remnants of the Green Ghost Civilization!"
Su Yu was listening from the side. His face was calm, and he wasn't surprised.
Other than the remnants of the Green Ghost Civilization, there was no other possibility for someone to have such a powerful foundation and dare to openly oppose the Dayu Empire.
Su Yu asked, "What is their goal?"
The remnants of the Green Ghost Civilization had been dormant for many years. How could they have come here just to kill a few princes?
"Beixin Wang Tripod!" North Wangting was very certain. "The Imperial Cauldron is used to suppress the fate of the Dayu Dynasty. None of the nine cauldrons are missing. The Green Ghost civilization has returned to the world with the Imperial Cauldron as their goal. They want to seize the cauldron and destroy the fate of the Dayu Dynasty!"
Upon hearing that, Su Yu and Blood Guanyin's eyes changed slightly.
"Right, why are you going to the Great Void Gate?" North Gazing Pavilion suddenly asked.
Su Yu put his right hand behind his back, and a long sword burning with golden flames slid out of his wide sleeve.
The blood lotus under the Blood Guanyin's feet also spun faster.
"Are you also going to participate in the Great Void Hidden Dragon Contest?" North Wangting asked.
"Yes." Su Yu put away the Golden Flames Forbidden Wooden Sword calmly.
North Wangting laughed. "I see."
After a pause, North Wangting took out a jade butterfly and handed it to Su Yu with both hands. "I can't give you anything else for saving my life. This is the token of the Beixin Mansion. If you need help in the future, you can use this jade butterfly to look for me at the Beixin Mansion."
North Wangting straightened his body and left the bronze carriage.
Su Yu said, "You don't want to continue traveling with us?"
Shaking his head, North Wangting said, "Since you are going to participate in the Hidden Dragon Contest, I will not travel with you for your own good. If my second brother finds out that I have befriended the Hidden Dragon contenders, I will be fine, but you will be in trouble."
With North Wangchen's breadth of mind, he would never allow his brothers to accumulate power in secret.
He might not touch North Wangting, but he would most likely make a move on Su Yu and the others.
"Farewell!" North Wangting flew out of the bronze carriage and disappeared into the distance, leaving behind a sparkling and translucent jade butterfly.
Su Yu held it in his palm and gently stroked it. "Is this the token of the Beixin bloodline?"
Shreds of light flickered in the depths of his eyes.
The remaining month's journey was exceptionally peaceful. They had successfully arrived at the Taixu Faction.
Looking from afar, a giant, black door was erected between the heavens and the earth, towering between heaven and earth.
"We are finally here." Xue Guanyin let out a breath.
Throughout the entire journey, they had been tense and alert. They were finally safe.
Su Yu said, "We have to thank the evil spirit for scaring away the dangers of the Ghost Swamp. Otherwise, we would not have reached the Taixu Faction so smoothly."
Unlike the rumored dangerous Ghost Swamp, they had not encountered any danger along the way.
On the other hand, the Cloud Ladder, which had been considered safe, had been attacked by the evil spirit. A large number of the Beixin bloodline and their followers had perished.
"The Wang Cauldron is within the Taixu Faction. How do we enter?" The Merciless Saber Emperor frowned.
Xue Guanyin glared at him. "Finally awake and concerned about the mission?"
Along the way, the Merciless Saber Emperor was indifferent to everything. Xue Guanyin was indignant.
The Merciless Saber Emperor grunted. "Don't you always discuss everything with Su Yu? When have you ever asked for my opinion? "
Speaking of which, the arrogant son of a Martial Emperor did not even have the right to speak in front of Su Yu. He had to hold it in throughout the entire journey.
Xue Guanyin sneered. "Then you should understand the Taixu Faction better!"
"The Taixu Faction is never opened normally, and outsiders are not allowed to enter except during the Hidden Dragon Contest of the Great Void," Xue Guanyin said. "The Chief Cabinet Master ordered us to come at this time because he had some considerations."
Su Yu nodded.
Along the way, Su Yu had been thinking of a plan to seize the cauldron.
The Hidden Dragon Contest of the Great Void was the best opportunity.
The Hidden Dragon Contest of the Northern Territory was held once every hundred years to select the top nine geniuses.
The selection would take place within the Taixu Faction.
Not only within the fiefdom, but many geniuses from outside the fiefdom would also come to participate.
Besides being invited by Bei Wang Chen to become a guest behind the scenes, the final rewards of the competition were also very generous.
The ninth to fourth place would have the opportunity to become the last disciple of Duke Beixin, the Divine Warrior of Heaven and Earth.
The top three would have the opportunity to enter the cauldron and use the fortune of the Dayu Empire to break through their own bottlenecks.
Especially for Half Step to Divine Warriors of Heaven and Earth, the top three rewards were even more rare!
Among the dozens of Divine Warriors of Heaven and Earth in the Dayu Empire, more than half had used the fortune of the Dayu Empire to break through their bottlenecks and become Divine Warriors.
The opportunity to seize the cauldron was right in front of them.
They arrived at the Taixu Faction.
There was already a large crowd near the giant door, about a thousand people.
Most of their cultivation levels were above that of the Golden Overlord. Gathered together, they gave off a great pressure.
Obviously, they had also come to participate in the Hidden Dragon Contest of the Great Void!
The difference was, compared to Su Yu, most of them looked exhausted. Some of them had obvious injuries on their bodies, looking battered and exhausted.
It looked like their journey had been bumpy and dangerous.
"Those three people are strange. They look safe and sound."
"I wonder if they passed through the Ghost Marsh or the Cloud Ladder!"
"It is indeed strange! The Cloud Ladder this time is dangerous, but the Ghost Marsh is not peaceful either. Not only are there mysterious Divine Warriors of Heaven and Earth wreaking havoc, but there are also unknown forces taking the opportunity to hunt. Have they not encountered this before? "
"In the previous Hidden Dragon Contests, evil forces would hunt and kill competitors in the Ghost Marsh. This year is the most serious. In the previous years, at least ten thousand people would survive. But this year? Only a thousand people! The strength of the evil forces can be imagined. They must have covered every corner of the two paths! But they did not encounter them. There must be something strange about this! "
Hearing their conversation, Su Yu was surprised.
If that was the case, the reason why their trip to the Ghost Marsh was so peaceful was because they were exceptionally lucky.
How could there be such a huge evil force?
Could it be related to them bypassing the central area?
Su Yu steered the bronze carriage to the side silently.
Following that, more and more competitors rushed out of the Ghost Marsh.
Without exception, all of them were either injured or weak.
At that moment, a black flying ship cut through the miasma of the Ghost Marsh, letting out an ear-piercing sound as it approached.
A group of people dressed in purple jumped down from the flying ship.
Each of them had a purple gourd hanging from their waists, and they wore masks with evil carvings on their faces.
Their entire bodies emitted an uncomfortable evil energy.
What was different was that most of them were unharmed.
"The Fanshan Evil Faction!" Some of the strong martial artists recognized the people on the flying ship and gasped.
"They are also one of the hunters! I encountered them and escaped from their hands! "
"It's them!"
The group of people who had been hunted were shocked and angry, but they did not dare resist.
Even if they could defeat them, attacking in front of the Great Void Gate would be considered a violation of the Great Void Hidden Dragon's rules, and they would be disqualified from the competition.
The people of the Fanshan Evil Faction emitted waves of evil energy as they arrived at the Great Void Gate.
"You, move aside." The leader of the purple-robed people extended a finger, pointing at the three strong martial artists with auras at the peak of the overlord level!
Those three people had the highest cultivation levels among the people present.
What was even more frightening was that the three of them had joined forces.
Looking at the whole place, no one could be their opponent.
Therefore, the three of them had occupied the best spot to enter the Great Void Gate — the center of the gate.
At that moment, they were asked to move aside by the people of the Fanshan Evil Faction.
"This is going to be fun! Those three people should be the Three Gentlemen of the Thousand Water Lake. Rumor has it that the three of them once fought against a Half World Divine Warrior without losing. "
"Hehe, looks like the Fanshan Evil Faction has kicked a steel plate. The Three Gentlemen of the Thousand Water Lake are not to be trifled with …"
The crowd was filled with anticipation. The Three Gentlemen of the Thousand Water Lake exchanged glances, and after a few exchanges, they took the initiative to leave, making room for the center.
"This …" The crowd was disappointed, but at the same time, shocked.
Even the Three Gentlemen of the Thousand Water Lake were wary of the Fanshan Evil Faction. It looked like the Fanshan Evil Faction was even more powerful than they appeared to be.
"At least you know what's good for you." The leader of the purple-robed people smirked. "In the Ghost Swamp, the three of you ran fast. Otherwise, I would've sent you to hell with the Golden Virgin!"
Hearing this, many people gasped in shock.
"What? The Golden Virgin is dead? "
"No way? Rumor has it that the Golden Virgin is an old monster that has been famous for many years. Her cultivation level has already reached the peak of the overlord level. Especially the Golden Virgin. Rumor has it that she has already reached the Half World Divine Warrior level! "
"Hiss! What kind of trump card does the Fanshan Evil Faction have? How did they manage to kill the Golden Virgin? "
"No wonder the Three Gentlemen of the Thousand Water Lake didn't dare to face them. They have seen the power of the Fanshan Evil Faction with their own eyes!"
A group of purple-robed people occupied the center position aggressively. The people around them made way for them, afraid of offending them.
However, just as the purple-robed people occupied the center position, a coquettish voice rang out.
"Your Excellency, could you do me a favor and give up the center position to me?"
The voice was coquettish and seductive, and it was soft to the ears.
It also contained a charm that caused people to fall into a momentary obsession, both men and women.
Su Yu was also momentarily obsessed, but he quickly came to his senses. He bit his tongue and sobered up.
The leader of the purple-robed people's expression changed drastically. "Thousand Miles Illusory Sound Technique! It's the secret technique of the Hehuan Civilization's royal family! "
"Hehe …" A coquettish laugh rang out, and a gigantic peach blossom slowly flew over from the sky.
There were three men and three women in the peach blossom.
The men were tall and handsome, and they had an extraordinary bearing. They were the standard for many women's dream lovers.
The women were graceful and alluring, and their beauty was enough to topple a city.
Everyone present was stunned.
Handsome men and beautiful women might not be rare, but it was rare to see six extremely handsome men and beautiful women gathered together.
Especially the woman in the play!
She was lying on her side on a pink bed carved with the stamens of the peach blossom.
The overlapping red gauze couldn't conceal her astonishing figure, nor could it conceal her soul-stirring charm.
Looking at her, many people felt that there was no woman more beautiful than her in the world.
Su Yu was also deeply amazed.
However, he had seen Xia Jingyu's incomparable beauty, so he had a strong immunity to it. His eyes were calm, and there was not much lust in them.
As the peach blossom approached, the beautiful woman lying on her side opened her red lips and asked, "Gentlemen, can you give up that position to me?"
Her coquettish words reached everyone's ears again. At such a close distance, everyone trembled as if they had been electrocuted.
The purple-robed leader's face was filled with fear, and he hurriedly said, "I am Shaoxie from the Fanshan Evil Faction. Greetings, Saint Lady of the Acacia Civilization. Since you like it, Shaoxie will naturally let you have it."
The Fan Shan Evil Faction, who had been arrogant just a moment ago, immediately retreated to the side, not daring to oppose the people in the peach blossom.
Su Yu glanced at their cultivations, and he was shocked to discover that the weakest of them was a peak overlord!
The most powerful was the charming woman, who was enveloped in a special atmosphere that he could not see through!
As if she had sensed something, the charming woman looked at Su Yu and said with a smile, "Young man, since you like me, why don't you come forward and look at me?"
Su Yu's response was calm. "No need, thank you."
The charming woman sat up on the pink bed, her fair right hand supporting her chin. She looked at Su Yu with great interest. "I've been curious since just now. Everyone is affected by my charm, but why are you an exception?"
She was very observant, and she had seen everyone's reactions just now.
Su Yu's unusual behavior naturally did not escape her eyes.
"Miss, you worry too much. You are very beautiful, and I admire you very much," Su Yu said calmly.
The charming woman giggled. "Hehe, I admire you very much too …"
Suddenly, the charming woman seemed to have sensed something. She walked down from the peach blossom and approached Su Yu with light steps. Her charming eyes looked at Su Yu. "Have you seen my thirteenth brother?"
