"Hiss!"
When the crowd below saw Huang Xu's body falling and losing his Primordial Spirit, they all gasped in horror with their eyes wide open.
"The Great General of Divine Shadow Palace has lost!"
"His primordial spirit has completely disappeared, he's dead!"
"A peak late-stage Divine King can actually kill an early-stage Divine Monarch! Xiao Chen's strength is too terrifying! "
Everyone looked at Huang Xu's body in horror and exclaimed. They couldn't believe that Huang Xu had been killed by Xiao Chen!
Xiao Chen took the pill. His injuries and power were recovering at a frightening rate. His pale face had become rosy again, and his power had been restored as well.
"It's really not easy to kill a Divine Monarch expert. I used all my strength and almost lost my life. The gap between the realms of the Divine World is really too big." Xiao Chen smiled to himself. In just a few minutes, his injuries and strength had completely recovered.
Divine Sword smiled and said, "Master hasn't used the Saint Technique yet! Otherwise, you might have killed Huang Xu directly. "
"The Saint Technique consumes too much energy. With my current cultivation, I can use it three times at most, and the result is that all my energy will be used up." Xiao Chen smiled. It was precisely because the Saint Technique was so powerful that it required a lot of energy that Xiao Chen wouldn't use it easily.
After saying that, Xiao Chen flew towards the teleportation gate. Huang Xu's appearance had already wasted a lot of time.
Two hours later, Xiao Chen arrived at the Northern Divine Capital of the Northern Region. The Northern Divine Capital was the center of the Northern Region and many super experts were gathered there.
"This is the territory of the Eastern Royal Divine Emperor. There are people of the Eastern Royal Divine Emperor everywhere in the Northern Divine Capital. I hope they don't find me or there will be trouble." Xiao Chen thought to himself. He didn't plan to stay in the Northern Divine Capital and directly flew to Ancient Heaven City.
On the other side, the news of Huang Xu being killed by Xiao Chen quickly spread to Divine Shadow Palace. Gao Xiong and the others were still waiting for good news about Huang Xu, but unexpectedly, they received news that Huang Xu had been killed, causing them to be furious.
"Preposterous! That little bastard Xiao Chen simply doesn't put our Divine Shadow Palace in his eyes!" In the hall, the Second Elder furiously roared, his killing intent filling the entire hall.
"Xiao Chen actually has such strength! This brat's cultivation speed isn't an ordinary kind of shocking. A peak late-stage Divine King can kill a Divine Lord expert. Too inconceivable! "First Elder said with a frown.
The Third Elder roared angrily, "If not for the five great God Emperors in Soulgate, how would Xiao Chen dare to be so arrogant?"
On the main seat, Gao Xiong's face was gloomy. Gao Li had been killed, and now Huang Xu had been killed as well. One could imagine how furious he was.
"If Divine Lord Tian Ying is unwilling to take action, what should we do?" A Divine Monarch asked anxiously. At the same time, he was extremely furious.
"Since Xiao Chen has left the central region, we'll wait for him at the central region's teleportation gate! If God Emperor Tian Ying is not willing to take action, we will do it ourselves! "Gao Xiong said gloomily and furiously. He decided to take action personally.
"Swoosh!"
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in a flash. A majestic aura filled the air. Everyone in the hall, except for Gao Xiong, immediately greeted respectfully, "Greetings, God Emperor Tian Ying."
The person who came was God Emperor Tian Ying. He probably already knew that Huang Xu had been killed by Xiao Chen.
"Gao Xiong, this God Emperor knows that you are extremely dissatisfied with this God Emperor. However, this God Emperor has said that we should bide our time and wait patiently for an opportunity. The Heavenly Deity Palace did not listen to this God Emperor's orders, which is why today is happening." God Emperor Tian Ying looked at Gao Xiong expressionlessly.
"Hmph!" Gao Xiong snorted coldly and said, "There is no need to trouble God Emperor Tian Ying with this matter. My Divine Shadow Palace has people who can deal with Xiao Chen!"
When Gao Li was killed, God Emperor Tian Ying did not say anything. He only asked Gao Xiong to bide his time. This had already made Gao Xiong furious. Gao Xiong could not wait patiently to avenge his son's death. Now that God Emperor Tian Ying had appeared, Gao Xiong naturally would not be polite.
"The Eastern Royal God Emperor is already planning. I believe that there will be a result soon. If you insist on doing things your own way, this God Emperor will not stop you! However, you will bear the consequences. If you act rashly, you will only lose your lives for nothing. "God Emperor Tian Ying said coldly. As soon as he finished speaking, God Emperor Tian Ying disappeared in a flash.
The reason why God Emperor Tian Ying had come to the Divine Shadow Palace was to warn Gao Xiong not to act rashly. The Divine Shadow Palace was one of the great forces under God Emperor Tian Ying. He did not want to lose such a powerful right-hand man.
"Palace Master, God Emperor Tian Ying's words are reasonable. The Heavenly Deity Palace is an example. If we act rashly, the consequences will be worse than the Heavenly Deity Palace." Great Elder said slowly.
"What is the Eastern Royal God Emperor planning?" Second Elder frowned and asked curiously.
Great Elder shook his head, indicating that he was not sure. After all, God Emperor Tian Ying did not explain clearly.
"Bide our time." Gao Xiong was silent for a long time before he spat out these two words reluctantly. Then, he waved his sleeves and turned to leave.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was already in the main hall of the Ancient Sky City. Xiao Chen was also responsible for Gu Yunfeng's matter. Now, he was here to apologize.
"Lord of Soulgate, there is no need to blame yourself. This is not your fault. Perhaps Feng-er is destined to face this calamity." Gu Shan shook his head helplessly. His face looked more and more weathered, as if he had aged a lot.
"The person who went against Gu Yunfeng must know him. Perhaps there is some enmity between them. Think about it carefully." Xiao Chen frowned. He definitely did not believe that someone would go against Gu Yunfeng for no reason. There must be a reason.
Madam Gu's face was filled with grief as she cried, "Feng-er has never left the North Region. How could he have enmity with someone from the Central Region? We can't think of anyone."
"It has already been so many days. I'm afraid Feng-er has already been killed …" Gu Shan said painfully. Every time he thought of Gu Yunfeng, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by a sharp blade. It was extremely painful.
"Lord of Soulgate, Gu Yunfeng usually treats people very well. It is impossible for him to have enemies. Not only the Ancient Sky City, even the people of the Grand Imperial City know this. Speaking of enmity, perhaps only Tai Huangshui would know," Yang Jun continued, looking very sad.
"The young city lord of the Grand Imperial City?" Xiao Chen asked. He also knew this person.
Yang Jun nodded and said, "That's right. The young city lord and Tai Huangshui have some enmity in the past, but it is not a big deal. Tai Huangshui is very arrogant, completely different from the young city lord. I just don't know if he will do anything to the young city lord."
"Tai Huangshui is arrogant, but he is not calculative. He has no reason to do anything to Gu Yunfeng." The first elder denied. He believed that Tai Huangshui was not that kind of person.
"The day of succession is approaching, and Feng 'er has met with an accident at this time. His whereabouts are unknown, and we don't know if he is alive or dead. The Old Man is extremely distressed," Gu Shan said sorrowfully.
Xiao Chen was taken aback when he heard this. Then, he hurriedly asked, "Pass on the throne? Gu Shan wants to pass the position of city lord to Gu Yunfeng? "
"That's right. There are less than five months left. The Old Man wants to pass the position of city lord to Gu Yunfeng as soon as possible to make him feel responsible. Perhaps it can change him as soon as possible. But now his whereabouts are unknown. The Old Man really does not know what to do. He said that he wants to pass it to Yang Jun, but he said that it is not suitable," Gu Shan said.
Yang Jun smiled faintly and said, "City Lord, the Ancient Sky City is such a big foundation. I can't manage it. Besides, I don't like to be under too much pressure."
The Second Elder, Yang Xiong Feng, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Jun 'er is indeed not suitable. He is just like a weak scholar."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly and thought to himself, Gu Yunfeng has lived in the Northern Region for so many years and nothing has happened. Now that it is time for the succession, something has happened for no reason. There must be something behind this. Someone must be eyeing the position of city lord. But who could it be?
"Sigh! Feng 'er's whereabouts are unknown. The Old Man has already informed all the forces in the Northern Region about the succession. If Feng' er still does not appear, the position of city lord will be passed to Yang Jun. We can't let an outsider take over the position of city lord, right? "Gu Shan smiled bitterly and felt more helpless.
Mrs. Gu said sorrowfully, "Husband, is Feng 'er still alive?"
Gu Shan was speechless. He did not know either.
"There are many mighty ones in the Ancient Sky City. Yang Jun looks like a weak scholar, so it can't be him. It's even more impossible for the three elders to be the city lord. Given their age, they can't be the city lord. So, who could it be?" Xiao Chen speculated as he looked at everyone in the hall with a serious expression.
"Xiao Chen seems to be suspicious. Xiao Chen is indeed very smart and different from the rest," Yang Jun said to himself when he noticed Xiao Chen's expression. However, he did not say anything.
"City Lord Gu, I have a feeling that Yunfeng is not dead yet. I believe that he will appear on the day of the succession." Xiao Chen smiled. As he said this, Xiao Chen's gaze was not on Gu Shan, but on the expressions of everyone in the hall.
Xiao Chen's words were meant for the person in the dark. However, to Xiao Chen's disappointment, there was no movement at all.
Mrs. Gu was overjoyed when she heard this. She hurriedly asked, "City Lord of Soulgate, is what you said true?"
Xiao Chen nodded and smiled, "Of course it is true. I believe that he will return."
"Old Man also hopes that Feng 'er is still alive and can return as soon as possible," Gu Shan said. However, he did not have much hope after being missing for more than a month.
"Xiao Chen, this little trick is not enough to deal with me! Since you are so confident, I want to see how you will investigate! "Yang Jun sneered in his heart. He did not fall for Xiao Chen's trick and remained as calm as still water.
"Looks like I still have to investigate in secret. I can't tell Gu Shan and the others, lest I alert them," Xiao Chen thought. Seeing no change in anyone's expression, Xiao Chen was secretly disappointed.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen said to Gu Shan, "City Lord Gu, can I stay in Ancient Sky City for a few more days?"
"Of course, it is Ancient Sky City's honor for the City Lord of Soulgate to grace us with your presence." Gu Shan hurriedly smiled. Gu Shan knew how terrifying Soulgate was and did not dare to slight it.
"Many thanks, City Lord Gu." Xiao Chen cupped his fists and smiled.
Yang Xiongfeng hurriedly said, "Jun 'er, go and make preparations for the City Lord of Soulgate."
"Yes!" Yang Jun respectfully replied and left the hall.
"Stay for a few more days? It seems that Xiao Chen is planning to investigate in secret. I'd like to see just how capable the sectmaster of the Soul Gate really is. "Yang Jun sneered in his mind as he turned around. He remained calm on the surface, but he hid his true feelings well.
