Needless to say, Song Zhong's actions had moved many of Shura Xue's subordinates. They quieted down once more, as if they had helplessly accepted the fate of the princess. However, there were still some strong-willed people who believed that Shura Xue's marriage to an outsider was treacherous. Thus, they had other plans.
Xiu Luo Xue was well aware of this and did not dare to be careless. Every day, he would ask about the protection of the passageway. He was determined not to let anyone who was disloyal slip out and spread the news.
Compared to Song Zhong's troubles, Huang Jixiang was much happier. In the Martial Arts Exhibition held a few years ago. This brat had finally shown his prowess, taking first place in one go. The advantage of a XianTian Spiritual Artifact was just too great. Apart from SongZhong, no one else would be able to resist it. He deserved to be the champion!
It was worth mentioning that Huang Jixiang's opponent this time was Fairy Green Vine, the woman who had surrendered to Song Zhong last time. After obtaining the Longevity Jade from SongZhong, her strength had soared once more. Now, she was only a hair's breadth away from becoming a Perfected Golden Immortal. Under these circumstances, she came out of seclusion just in time for a new Martial Arts Exhibition. Thus, with the determination to win, he participated again.
In the end, he met Huang Jixiang in the finals. The two of them fought bitterly for three days and three nights. In the end, Huang Jixiang won the most difficult competition. When Fairy Green Vine saw Song Zhong again at the celebration party, she thanked him profusely. She was glad that she had taken the initiative to admit defeat.
If she hadn't become smarter back then, she would have missed out on the Longevity Essence Jade. Even she, who had consumed the Longevity Essence Jade, was no match for Huang Jixiang. A hundred years ago, she had no chance at all!
After Huang Jixiang won the championship, he was extremely excited and complacent. He was practically raising his tail to the sky. However, this kid still knew not to forget his roots. Although he had received many offers to join him, he had tactfully rejected them and firmly followed behind Song Zhong. He believed that with Song Zhong's ability, sooner or later, he would soar into the sky!
Jade Emperor was quite happy about Huang Jixiang's victory. After all, Huang Jixiang represented Zhu Rong Tian, and Zhu Rong Tian was his disciple. The Jade Emperor's face was filled with pride after winning the championship for two consecutive years. In the past, with the Jade Emperor's comfortable situation, it was simply unimaginable for him to win the championship consecutively.
For this reason, the Jade Emperor made an exception and gave him a huge reward. Although it wasn't as much as what was given to Song Zhong, it was definitely more than what was given to the previous champions.
Huang Jixiang also took the opportunity to loot the Celestial Thearch's treasury. After he came out, his bird guns had been replaced with cannons. Apart from the Innate Cardinal Treasure, the Mountain-Moving Whip, he had replaced almost all of his other treasures. Even the Grade Seven Immortal Artifact that Song Zhong had given him was relegated to the second tier.
Right now, Huang Jixiang was wielding a ninth-grade immortal artifact, the Thousand Peaks Heavy Sword. It was a treasure forged from a thousand overlapping spiritual peaks. It was heavy and powerful. Anyone who liked to use heavy weapons would be envious of it! Even Song Zhong was no exception. That thing was a little stronger than his Dragon Vein Divine Axe.
Although the Thousand Peaks Heavy Sword didn't have super strong power, after a thousand overlapping peaks, every strike would be instantly multiplied a thousand times. The terrifying vibration force was absolutely invincible and extremely terrifying! Golden Immortals who were slightly weaker couldn't withstand it at all.
After obtaining such a treasure, Huang Jixiang was so happy that he couldn't even tell north from south! He even boasted that he would fight Song Zhong one-on-one without using the Innate Cardinal Treasure, the Mountain-Moving Whip.
Song Zhong was so angry? He didn't waste any time and directly fulfilled his wish. Anyway, his injuries were healed, so he wasn't afraid of exerting himself! At that time, Song Zhong used his true form of the Chaos Giant Spirit Clan to hack with the axe with all his strength and directly chopped Huang Jixiang into a rolling gourd.
Only then did Huang Jixiang wake up from his dream. He knew why the Chaos Giant Spirit Clan was called the number one abnormal bloodline! In terms of strength alone, they were absolutely invincible among those of the same level!
Although Huang Jixiang's weapon was slightly better, and the Earth Qi around his body gave him abnormal strength and defense, all of that was nothing in front of Song Zhong, who had been nourished by the Heavenly Thunder for a hundred years!
In any case, from then on, Huang Jixiang would rather die than spar with Song Zhong again. In his own words, "I don't want to play anymore. I've suffered a blow!"
This made SongZhong embarrassed. It was just a spar, a spar. Who knew that this brat would be so weak?
After the Martial Arts Exhibition ended, Song Zhong and Huang Jixiang returned to Chen Tangguan and once again lived their leisurely days. The two of them did not care about the matters at Chen Tang Pass. They handed the administrative matters over to Feng Xi while the military affairs were handed over to the other Vice Commandant, Tian Xuejian. While he was injured, he had eaten a lot of Song Zhong's priceless elixirs. As the saying goes, one's mouth is short. He originally wanted to leave after his injuries were healed. No matter what, he could not work under a Golden Immortal. That would be too embarrassing!
However, after receiving Song Zhong's kindness and seeing that Song Zhong had managed Chen Tangguan in an orderly and prosperous manner, he could not bear to leave. Instead, he could not bear to leave. Thus, under SongZhong's invitation, he chose to stay and continue being SongZhong's vice commander. Furthermore, his treatment was even better than before! In this way, Chen Tangguan finally had a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal overseeing it in name.
Although Tian Xuejian's real strength was not as good as Huang Jixiang's, his seniority and realm were there. With him around, it was reassuring!
However, Song Zhong and Huang Jixiang's leisurely days did not last for long. They were disrupted by the subordinate sent by the Fire Lord of the South.
He brought the order from the Fire Lord of the South, asking him to quickly return to Zhurong City for a meeting. When Song Zhong saw this, he knew that the matter was very urgent and did not dare to delay. He hurriedly followed the subordinate.
With the teleportation formation, Song Zhong did not spend too much time and arrived at the Fire Lord of the South's residence in Zhurong City.
Under the lead of the subordinate, Song Zhong quickly arrived at an exquisite meeting room. As soon as he entered, he was stunned. The reason was that there was not only the Fire Lord of the South, but also Golden Immortal Taibai. Even the other Great Emperors of the Four Seas Dragon Realms were there. Song Zhong was obviously the last to arrive.
Seeing SongZhong enter, everyone revealed a smile. Only Ice Monarch, who had a grudge with SongZhong, said with a cold face, "What arrogance? You actually made two Star Lords wait for a junior like you! Hmph! "
Song Zhong could not be bothered with him. He glanced at him with disdain and then pretended to ignore him. He directly cupped his fist and bowed to Golden Immortal Taibai and the Fire Lord of the South.
Of course, Golden Immortal Taibai and the Fire Lord of the South would not blame Song Zhong. In fact, they could not blame him. It was obvious that the subordinate was late. Song Zhong did not do it on purpose. Thus, they all politely nodded their heads to SongZhong and allowed him to sit down.
Tai Bai Golden Immortal then looked at Ice Snow Monarch and said calmly, "Song Zhong is a junior and all of you are seniors. Furthermore, we all work in the Heavenly Court. Don't be too harsh on him!"
Although Golden Immortal Taibai did not mention the name, everyone knew that he was talking about the Ice Lord. The guy's face immediately turned red. He did not expect that he would not only fail to pull the trigger on Song Zhong, but also humiliate himself!
However, although the Ice Lord was extremely unwilling, he did not dare to go against Golden Immortal Taibai. He could only answer respectfully with the other Great Emperors, "Yes!"
Seeing that they were so obedient, Golden Immortal Taibai nodded with satisfaction and said, "The Heavenly Court must pay attention to unity. Do not cause trouble!" As he said that, he glanced at Song Zhong. Clearly, he wanted him to restrain himself.
SongZhong made an innocent expression, then continued to act dumb.
Golden Immortal Taibai could not do anything to him. He could only smile bitterly and shake his head. He then sent a voice transmission to the Fire Lord of the South, "Having such a subordinate must be a headache for you, right?"
"Hehe, you are wrong about that!" The Fire Lord of the South chuckled as he transmitted his voice, "SongZhong made me worry a lot. But that Ice Snow True Monarch is a little tactless. If not for the fact that he has contributed so much in the past, I would have long dismissed him! However, if he doesn't know how to repent and continues to make things difficult for SongZhong, then I have no choice but to remove him from the team! "
"Eh? They are both subordinates. Why are you favoring one over the other? "Golden Immortal Taibai could not help but tease.
"I'm not favoring one over the other, I'm just stating the facts. The conflict between them is indeed due to the fact that Ice Snow True Monarch isn't too kind and wanted to use his seniority to suppress SongZhong. You should also be clear about this. Moreover, the Dragon Realm of the Four Seas is so stable and prosperous now all thanks to Song Zhong. The Ice Lord has no ability and is jealous of others. If it were you, who would you side with? "The Fire Lord of the South laughed.
"You always have a point! Alright, let's get down to business! "Golden Immortal Taibai laughed bitterly and then ended the secret meeting.
The Fire Lord of the South did not continue to talk nonsense. His face turned cold and he said sternly, "Everyone! I have called all of you here today because I have an important announcement to make. According to the calculations of the Celestial Court's Astrological Platform, a Connate Cardinal Treasure will be born in the Dragon Realm of the Four Seas soon. It is looking for the fated one! "
The Fire Lord of the South's words caused a burst of exclamations.
The Celestial Court's Astrological Platform was a place for divination. It had an extremely strong prophecy ability. Since the news was spread by them, it meant that it was most likely to be true!
Connate Cardinal Treasures were treasures that all Immortals in the Immortal World dreamed of. Huang Jixiang was able to win first place in the martial arts exhibition because he had it.
According to the rules of the Celestial Court, since this item appeared in the Dragon Realm of the Four Seas, the people of the Dragon Realm of the Four Seas had priority. Once they obtained this Connate Cardinal Treasure, it would mean that they would rise several levels out of thin air.
Therefore, when they heard the news, not only were the Ice Lord and the others overjoyed, but even Song Zhong was tempted. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
