Aside from feeling sullen, Leng Shaofan felt even more helpless. Back then, when Xiao Chen first came to the Heavenly Starry Ocean, Leng Shaofan felt helpless. With just a thought, he could think of a way to deal with Xiao Chen, causing Xiao Chen to not even dare to go to his own fief.
Over the past three years, Xiao Chen had been improving, and so had he. But now, with a single palm strike, he was forced to kneel in front of Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen was a monstrous genius. No one in his generation could compare to him.
Leng Shaofan could not let him become an Emperor. This was the only thought in his mind. He absolutely could not let Xiao Chen become an Emperor.
In the future, the Great Tribulation of wind and fire would definitely kill him. Right now, he had to endure all the humiliation for now.
Whoever had the last laugh would be the real winner.
Since the two young masters had spoken, the two Emperor Wu -level experts of the Dragon Palace had no choice but to take out all their belongings and save them as ransom.
Just thinking about it made him feel humiliated. The great Emperor Wu was actually toyed with by a Blue Robed Emperor in the Great Perfection realm.
Xiao Chen received the Essence Stones with satisfaction. Then, he patted Leng Shaofan and the red-robed man's shoulders and said, "Take them away. The restrictive spell will be lifted in half an hour."
"Young man, don't let us seize the opportunity. Today's humiliation will be returned a hundredfold in the future."
The two old men each carried a person and retreated with lightning speed. They were not willing to stay in this troublesome place any longer.
Aside from the people of Heavenly Star Island, only the Bushin Palace's Wang Feng and Elder Xing remained in the main hall.
Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "Men, get another set of tables and chairs. I will continue to discuss the matter of handing over the profits with the envoy from Bushin Palace."
"Hahahaha, Blue Dragon King, you must be joking. Let's not talk about profits anymore. We'll leave now. Sorry for disturbing you."
He saw that Xiao Chen was able to force two Emperor Wu's to hand over ten thousand Origin Essence Stones. Wang Feng had long since been scared out of his wits. If this continued, he did not know how Xiao Chen would play him.
This was not a place for humans. In the future, even if Xiao Chen was beaten to death, he would never come back to Heavenly Star Island again.
Wang Feng's footsteps were hurried, clearly flustered. He quickly left this place with Elder Xing.
When Mo Chen and Lan Shaobai saw the three Emperor Wu leave, their worried hearts relaxed at the same time. Looking at the white figure, his eyes were filled with admiration.
In Kun Lun, of the younger generation, who could compete with the Emperor and control the situation with a smile? Only Xiao Chen!
The three Emperor Wu's arrived unexpectedly at the same time. This startled Lan Shaobai and Mo Chen. One Emperor Wu was already a headache. What would happen if three came?
However, Xiao Chen calmly dealt with them. Not only did the three return empty-handed, but he even managed to extort twenty thousand Origin Essence Stones out of Emperor Wu's hands.
The result was like a dream. Even now, the two still found it unbelievable.
"Shaobai, pick a date for the news of reestablishing the Dragon's Gate. Do it within a month." Xiao Chen turned around and spoke with a grave expression. He did not show any joy at the results of the battle.
Feeling confused, Lan Shaobai asked, "Why? Didn't you just force the two Dragon Palace's Young Palace Masters to sign a contract, forbidding them from coming to Heavenly Star Island to cause trouble?"
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly. "Why do you think I could control the situation, forcing the three of them to return empty-handed and unable to do anything to me?"
Lan Shaobai opened his mouth to answer. However, when the words reached his mouth, he felt that the answer was not right. After thinking hard, he could not think of an accurate answer.
Why?
Mo Chen calmed down and thought for a while. Then, she had an answer in her heart. She looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Because of strength!"
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "That's right. It is because of strength. Even when facing three Emperor Wu at the same time, I have trump cards and do not fear them. Only in this way can I have the confidence to always be overbearing in terms of aura. "
"The fist is the biggest rule. Contracts and whatnot can be reneged at any time. I just have an excuse. In the future, when facing the Divine Dragon Palace, I can use reason to force them and gain an advantage. "
Lan Shaobai suddenly understood. However, he still did not understand. "Then, what does all this have to do with announcing the news of reestablishing the Dragon's Gate in advance?"
Xiao Chen sat down on the chair that he had already replaced. Then, he said, "I already exposed my strength, and the other party will definitely not take this lying down. Do you think that with my strength, I can cause any waves before the Three Holy Masters and the Divine Dragon Palace?
"Now that the other party is prepared, it will be hard for me to deal with them the next time they come looking for trouble. We can only announce the news of reestablishing the Dragon's Gate in advance and disrupt their plans so that we can control the rhythm ourselves. "
Lan Shaobai was not stupid. After Xiao Chen explained, he immediately understood. "I'll do it right away."
"Mo Chen, get Elder Qin to come over. I have something to discuss with him." The sense of crisis in Xiao Chen's heart made him unwilling to stop for even a moment.
Originally, he had not intended to expose his strength before the Dragon's Gate was reestablished. He had strength on par with Emperor Wu. Once it was exposed, some of the tacit understanding between the Thunder King and the other Primes would be broken.
However, he had no choice today. He had to expose it. Fortunately, the three Emperor Wu had too many misgivings and lost their drive.
Xiao Chen only exposed the Sharp Spirit Finger. No one knew that he had one hundred strands of Primordial Energy. This was a blessing in disguise.
After a while, the Haotian Sect's Elder Qin arrived at the main hall.
Xiao Chen went straight to the point, saying, "Elder Qin, I would like to meet the Haotian Emperor. You should have a way."
The Haotian Emperor … no, now it should be the Haotian Prime, Ying Zongtian. The other party had cleared three Sovereign Tribulations in a row, crossing nine Heavens. Like the Thunder King Sang Mu back then, he already possessed the strength of a Prime.
Xiao Chen had never formally met the Thunder King before, nor had he spoken to the Thunder King. He always felt that there was some distance between them.
In Xiao Chen's heart, the only person he could truly rely on was this Prime Martial Emperor, who he had a heart-to-heart talk with before.
Xiao Chen needed this senior's permission to reestablish the Dragon's Gate. Otherwise, he would not be confident. After announcing the matter to the world, there would be huge waves and boundless pressure.
Elder Qin was not surprised by Xiao Chen's sudden question. He smiled and said, "The Sect Master instructed me long ago that if Heavenly Star Island runs into any unsolvable problems, this old man can shatter this jade strip and get him to make an appearance.
"However, Young Master Xiao has never had a chance to use this jade strip. Wouldn't it be a waste to use it now?"
There really is!
Indeed, I guessed right. Xiao Chen said respectfully, "I'll have to trouble Elder Qin. Give me the jade strip. It is indeed time to use it."
"It is good that Young Master Xiao has decided."
Elder Qin flicked his hand and tossed out a jade strip. After Xiao Chen caught it, he performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "If there is nothing else, this old man will take his leave first."
Clearly, Xiao Chen had something he wanted to discuss with Ying Zongtian alone. So, Elder Qin tactfully left.
Without any hesitation, the moment Elder Qin left, Xiao Chen directly shattered the jade strip. "Ka ca!" The jade strip shattered into countless pieces. Each piece flickered with a crystalline light, looking dreamy and beautiful.
Before Xiao Chen's curious expression, the countless pieces of light gathered and changed. Finally, they formed an image of Ying Zongtian in front of Xiao Chen.
"Little Brother Xiao, why are you looking for me?" Ying Zongtian asked with a smile, appearing to be in good spirits.
Xiao Chen said politely, "Big Brother Ying, I intend to announce the reestablishment of the Dragon's Gate to the world within one month."
The moment Xiao Chen said that, the smile on Ying Zongtian's face immediately vanished. Then, he asked gravely, "Why are you in such a rush? In my opinion, you are not a rash person or a maniac with wild ambitions. Is there some other reason?"
Xiao Chen felt a warmth in his heart. Although Ying Zongtian was a senior, he did not seem to have a generation gap with Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen could easily guess Xiao Chen's difficulties.
Nodding, Xiao Chen explained Heavenly Star Island's current problems. The Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace was eyeing Heavenly Star Island covetously. Heavenly Star Island was not strong enough to resist them.
Xiao Chen needed to establish the Dragon's Gate's name and let them know the strength behind Heavenly Star Island. Only then would the other party not dare to make any rash moves, giving Heavenly Star Island space to survive.
At the same time, Xiao Chen expressed his intentions. He was only here to reestablish the Dragon's Gate out of a sense of responsibility after the death of the Qing Emperor. He did not have any ambitions, nor did he want to rule the world.
Xiao Chen did not have the time, energy, or interest to do so. As long as he could continue the Dragon's Gate's inheritance and live up to that sense of responsibility in his heart, it would be fine.
Ying Zongtian had been listening all along, not interrupting. After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he said, "I understand what you mean. When the time comes, I will personally make a trip over. As a descendant of the Qing Emperor, reestablishing the Dragon's Gate is a matter of course. There is no need to hide or sneak around."
Xiao Chen revealed a trace of joy on his face. "Many thanks, Big Brother."
"It's fine. There is no need to stand on ceremony. You are a descendant of the Qing Emperor in the first place. Reestablishing the Dragon's Gate is a matter of course. There is no need to sneak around or hide. Since you are open and aboveboard, what is there that cannot be made public? No matter how big the matter is, I will help you shoulder it. "
The Haotian Prime, Ying Zongtian, did not hesitate to agree to Xiao Chen's request after he finished speaking.
"With Big Brother's words, even if there is a huge wave, I am confident of shouldering it."
Xiao Chen's words were not humble or flattering. What else could give Xiao Chen more confidence than the promise of a Prime?
"Big Brother Ying, can I meet the Thunder King?" Xiao Chen made another request after hesitating for a while.
Ying Zongtian smiled and said, "There is no need. The Thunder King has been watching you. If he wants to meet you, it would be hard for you not to. If he does not want to, no one will be able to see his true body. Remember these words of mine. Although the Thunder Sovereign has rarely interfered to help you along the way, he has always been watching over you. As long as he is around, no one in the entire Kunlun Realm will dare to touch you. "
"Whoosh!"
After Xiao Chen said this, all the motes of light scattered like fireflies. Ying Zongtian's figure vanished.
A flame lit up in Xiao Chen's eyes. That was a surging determination. A faction that had disappeared for ten thousand years would be reestablished within one month.
The storm that Xiao Chen brought would definitely affect the entire Kunlun Realm. No matter where one was, this news would cause a stir.
The enemies in the open would definitely be enraged. The enemies in the dark would not be able to hold back and jump out.
Not everyone was happy to see the Dragon's Gate rise. Back then, the Qing Emperor made too many enemies. After the Qing Emperor fell, all the factions that participated in the destruction of the Dragon's Gate would absolutely not let the Dragon's Gate reestablish smoothly.
