Heavenly King Luo's status and strength were all obtained through hard work. He never believed in reaching the heavens in a single step.
Of course, he would never believe that anyone could improve so quickly.
— Not long ago, these people were all ants that he could kill easily. He didn't even need to pay attention to them personally.
But now, these people were actually half a step ahead of him?
And not one, but four?
This was a joke.
But … Could it be that his judgment was wrong?
Heavenly King Luo looked at everyone in confusion, trying to find some clues from their mischievous expressions.
Ouyang Jue coughed and smiled, "Little Luo, don't spout nonsense. Elder Shen, Elder Chu, Zi Ning and Elder Long are all fifth level True Gods. They passed the Black Dome Gate trial and entered the Elder Council. Even I can't compare to them, how can you say that it's because of nepotism?"
"So what if they passed the Black Dome Gate trial … What?"
Heavenly King Luo didn't react at first, but then he understood what Ouyang Jue was saying — Other than Shen Zhenyi, Cynanchum Chinense, Zi Ning, and Princess Long were all fifth level True Gods?
Did he hear wrongly?
"They … How can they be fifth level True Gods?"
Heavenly King Luo was tongue-tied, he didn't know what to say and could only ask stupidly.
"It's true."
Ouyang Jue's expression was solemn: "All the elders can testify to this, Little Luo, you don't need to worry."
To be honest, they didn't believe it at first. Even when Chu Huoluo and the others got back their Soul Imprints, they still thought that Shen Zhenyi had used some unknown method to get them. He just wanted to push his own disciples up.
— But other things could be faked, but not the divine light.
A fifth level True God's divine light was extremely bright, twisting and turning as one with the person. This was something that the three female disciples could do, so they couldn't say anything.
— In fact, some people suspected that Shen Zhenyi had not entered the fifth level of the True God Realm himself and that he was relying on the protection of the three female disciples. However, they didn't ask for Shen Zhenyi to reach the Fifth Level of the True God Realm. They only wanted him to pass the Black Dome Gate trial. Therefore, no one dared to ask for Shen Zhenyi's strength to be tested.
All in all, Cynanchum Chinense and the other two had solid qualifications. No matter what era King City was in, they were all Elders, including Ouyang Jue. Even the City Lord didn't have the qualifications to not let them enter the Elder Council.
And so … in an instant, the Abandoned Sword Villa had four more Elders.
And the number of people in King City's Elder Guild was now nine.
"Today, I called you here because I thought that since it's rare for King City to have nine Elders, and you've also served King City for so many days, you should be promoted to the tenth Elder. Little Luo, are you satisfied?"
Ouyang Jue looked at Great Heavenly King Luo with a faint smile.
Great Heavenly King Luo was in a daze.
Entering King City's Elder Council had always been his dream. Today, it had finally come true. He should be cheering, but … why wasn't he happy?
Not only that, because the Abandoned Sword Villa belonged to the inner city alliance, it could be said that the inner city alliance now had five Elders, occupying half of the city.
But … he still couldn't feel happy.
Originally, he was supposed to be the sixth Elder, the seventh in King City. But now, four people were squeezed into the Elder Council. How was he supposed to explain this?
Ouyang Jue wanted to make things worse. He smiled and said, "The few of you already know each other and belong to the inner city alliance, so you should work together. Although King City is still stable now, but if one doesn't think far ahead, there will be immediate problems. The beast tide is coming one after another, so we can't be careless. You are more familiar with the situation in King City than Elder Shen. Under his leadership, you will do your best to support him and contribute. The City Lord will definitely reward you! "
Good, good, good … I suddenly became the assistant of the Third Young Master Shen?
Great Heavenly King Luo was so angry that he almost vomited blood. But the situation was better than him, so what could he say?
He could only clench his teeth and lower his head. "I will do my best. I won't dare to disappoint the City Lord and Great Elder!"
The hatred in his heart spread like wild grass.
He hated that he didn't kill this brat at that time, resulting in today's humiliation!
Great Heavenly King Luo heard Strategist Heize's laughter. His face flushed red, and his fingertips almost bled from clenching his palms.
"Alright, everyone go back first. The four Elders just came out of the Black Dome Gate, so you should rest for a while. In a few days, the City Lord will hold a banquet and announce it to the whole city!"
Ouyang Jue didn't have the heart to say more and hurriedly announced the end of the banquet. It seemed that he had something else to do.
Shen Zhenyi and the others naturally didn't care. They didn't care too much about the position of Elder. It was just that with this qualification, they could build a city within a city. Most of the people in the World of Eight Cultivators could move into the inner city.
Therefore, they returned to the valley of the Abandoned Sword Villa and started to make preparations.
Great Heavenly King Luo returned to his residence, unable to restrain his anger. He smashed the person who reported the news to him into pieces with a palm. The poor guy thought that he had escaped a calamity, but in the end, he still couldn't escape death.
"Where is that Great Venerable Beast Heart?"
Great Heavenly King Luo roared angrily. "He clearly said that he was going to enter the Black Dome Gate and kill Shen Zhenyi. Why did he run out? Are the beastmen so useless in their work? "
He lit a joss stick, wanting to contact Great Venerable Beast Heart.
A black smoke rushed out of the bonfire in front of him. If it was in the past, Great Venerable Beast Heart would have been able to cross space and appear from the black smoke.
But this time … Great Heavenly King Luo hid for a long time. The black smoke was getting thicker and thicker, but no one came out of the darkness.
Great Venerable Beast Heart didn't give any response.
Great Heavenly King Luo's forehead was dripping with sweat.
… Could it be that Great Venerable Beast Heart also encountered some mishap?
Or could it be that he died at the hands of Shen Zhenyi?
The cooperation between the Heavenly King Association and the Beast Heart Association was very important. If the Beast Heart Association wanted to carry out their plan, it was impossible for them to leave the Heavenly King Association behind. This joss stick was an emergency communication token given by the Great Venerable Beast Heart. Now that he didn't appear, it seemed that he was already dead!
"What … is going on?"
Great Heavenly King Luo sat down dejectedly. His face was pale, showing a weak posture that no one had ever seen before.
Everything that happened today was beyond his common sense.
All his efforts seemed to have become meaningless.
The value of some geniuses' existence was to make others feel despair.
He muttered to himself, holding his head, his eyes bloodshot.
… At this moment, the black smoke suddenly trembled. A mysterious fluctuation was suddenly born from the fire and smoke. A terrifying power was gradually being born.
Great Heavenly King Luo was shocked and looked back in horror.
In the darkness, something a hundred times more terrifying than Great Venerable Beast Heart was slowly taking shape!
