"If the Qing Emperor was really such a person, it would be impossible for him to gain so much respect from the entire Dragon's Gate. How could a demon who entered the Demonic Dao gain so much respect?"
Xiao Chen knew about the Qing Emperor's tyranny. However, tyranny was one thing. Killing his friends and family, killing his lovers, he had already entered the Demonic Dao. Xiao Chen could accept a person's tyranny, but he absolutely could not accept such actions.
Xiao Xiong sighed softly, "Secrets are secrets. Naturally, ordinary people do not know about them. Not many people in the Dragon's Gate know about this. In the eyes of the Qing Emperor, the Dragon's Gate was just a chess piece on his path of cultivation. How could he let such secrets leak out?
"He only entered the Demonic Dao and did not lose his intelligence. He even managed to escape the shackles in his heart. His thoughts are even more meticulous than ordinary people's."
Xiao Chen understood. Back when he entered the Demonic Dao, he had heard the old man from the Five Poison Sect mention it. Some people did not lose their rationality after entering the Demonic Dao. They even knew how to hide, making them even more difficult to deal with.
However, was the Qing Emperor such a person?
Xiao Chen really could not accept this. For the sake of breaking the shackles in his heart, he killed his lover, his friends, and his teacher. If not for the Dragon's Gate being useful to him, he would have mercilessly attacked the entire Dragon's Gate.
For some reason, Xiao Chen instinctively did not believe all this. Even if it was true, there had to be another reason.
However, Xiao Chen's father's words were passed down from generation to generation. It should not be wrong.
Furthermore, when Xiao Chen was reestablishing the Dragon's Gate, the obstruction he faced. Even the various Holy Lords jumped out. When Xiao Chen connected this to his father's words, it was like they were corroborating each other, telling him that the words of his ancestors were correct.
Xiao Xiong explained, "Don't overthink. It does not matter what the world thinks or what the ancestors of the Xiao Clan in the Kunlun Realm think. You just need to be clear about your own heart. I see the shadow of the Qing Emperor in you. However, your heart of innocence has never changed. Father believes in you. "
Xiao Chen nodded. "I know. I have never thought of becoming the second Qing Emperor. Father, don't worry. Reestablishing the Dragon's Gate is my responsibility as a descendant of the Xiao Clan. I do not have any ambition. I just want the Dragon's Gate's legacy to continue. "
A gratified smile appeared on Xiao Xiong's face. Which father wouldn't be happy to see his son so capable?
"Stay here for a few more days. If there are any suitable youths, pick a few and send them up. There is no need to settle everything in one go. Let's take it slow for now. After several hundred years, our Xiao Family will be able to prosper in the Kunlun Realm. "
After coming out of his father's study, Xiao Chen's heart felt heavy.
Xiao Chen could not help but feel heavy. In the Kunlun Realm, he had always considered himself a descendant of the Qing Emperor. Sitting on the roof and looking at the starry sky, Xiao Chen thought about the unparalleled existence that swept through the Kunlun Realm. It turned out that he was a demon.
A book appeared in his hand. It was the Art of Good and Evil Merit. Looking at the black and white cover, Xiao Chen did not actually open it. Instead, he thought about some of the clues he knew.
That's not right. There are too many doubts in this. Many of them do not make sense. After carefully putting away the Art of Good and Evil Merit, Xiao Chen frowned and pondered. Perhaps the only one who knows the truth is the Thunder King.
The Item Spirit in the Blue Dragon Palace should know as well. That old fellow is very mysterious and seems to have a very close relationship with the Qing Emperor.
The Thunder King is not easy to see, and he does not have much lifespan left.
If Xiao Chen really wants to find out more, he will have to make a trip to the Blue Dragon Palace after advancing to Martial Emperor.
"Xiao Chen, why are you thinking so much? You did not come to the lower realms to seek trouble. Come with me. I want to go to Seven Horn Mountain, "Ao Jiao said as she came out of the Immortal Spirit Ring.
Xiao Chen revealed a smile on his face. Since Little Yellow Feather turned into the Golden Crow Egg, he had not seen Ao Jiao speak for a long time.
Since Ao Jiao asked, naturally, Xiao Chen agreed. Seven Horn Mountain was the place where the Thunder King died. He also wanted to go there.
With a few steps, the two arrived at the place where the Thunder King died.
The Sky Dome Realm did not allow Emperor Wu to descend. However, for a dying person, be it the upper echelon of the Kunlun Realm or the Deep Abyss Demon Monarchs, they would not interfere.
There were no longer any secrets in the cave. To outsiders, it no longer held any attraction. It had been empty for a long time. Now, it was overgrown with weeds and thorns, completely sealing the entrance.
Xiao Chen flicked his finger, and a saber light flashed. All the weeds turned to dust.
As Xiao Chen looked at the entrance, he felt deeply moved. This place was the first fortuitous encounter that changed his fate.
If Xiao Chen had not met Ao Jiao, he might have lost his life in Qizi County. Without the inheritance that the Thunder King gave him, he would not have been able to walk the path of a bladesman, and he would not have had all his accomplishments in the future.
This was the place where Xiao Chen's dreams began, as well as the place where his story began. Now that he returned to this place, he could not help but feel a wondrous feeling in his heart. He sighed at the wonders of fate.
"Ao Jiao, I've always had a question. Why is the restriction of the Thunder King's place of death so simple?"
Back then, that restriction could only block Martial Saints. To the current Xiao Chen, it was practically negligible.
Ao Jiao smiled and said, "You are really silly. You can't even figure this out. If Sang Mu made the restrictions too difficult, he would not be able to do so. If Sang Mu made the restriction too difficult, wouldn't I be sealed here forever, with no one able to free me? "
Xiao Chen revealed an expression of understanding. It turned out that it was so simple. To think that he could not think of it.
"Why did the Thunder King choose this place for his death?"
"Sang Mu was a citizen of the Great Qin Nation in the first place. He was born poor. His parents were just ordinary hunters at the foot of Seven Horn Mountain. He chose to die here only because of his longing for the place. "
As the two chatted, they recalled some of their earliest memories. Occasionally, they would smile.
"Do you remember how proud you were back then, always calling me trash master?"
"Naturally, I remember. Back then, you were just trash. Furthermore, you were so arrogant and unconvinced."
"Everyone has been arrogant in their youth. Thinking back, I did indeed show off my abilities, not knowing how to restrain myself. I offended all the Noble Clans of the Great Qin Nation. Now that I think about it, that period of time was truly carefree, without any worries. "
The two chatted for a long time at the entrance. Then, Xiao Chen said, "Come, let's go in and take a look."
However, Ao Jiao shook her head and said, "There's no need. The memories that this place brought me are long gone. I came here just to reminisce about the past after I left this place. "
The past after I left this place?
Xiao Chen thought about it and understood. Ao Jiao had already walked out of the knot in her heart from the Thunder King's death.
"Let's spend the night here, then."
The moonlight was very good. Xiao Chen decided to spend the night here, reminiscing about the first time he came to Seven Horn Mountain.
In the boundless night, Xiao Chen took off the Blue Dragon Ring. Then, he frowned and started to study it.
Given his current eyesight, he could tell that there was a seal in the ring. As for what exactly it was, he needed time to figure it out.
"If only Mo Chen were here. Given her talent in formations, it would not be difficult for her. I really want to know what is hidden in this ring," Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
In the Xiao Clan's city, Xiao Chen set up the nine Iron Defense Magic Formations.
He modified the formation plate so that as long as one possessed the Xiao Clan's bloodline and the formation plate, they could activate the Iron Defense Magic Formations.
The original Iron Defense Magic Formations required Primordial Energy to activate. After Xiao Chen modified them, its might naturally weakened.
However, the nine Iron Defense Magic Formations had the advantage in numbers. When stacked together, they could block an attack on the level of Emperor Wu. In this Sky Dome Realm, they were impregnable; no one could break them.
Even if Xiao Chen wanted to break them, he would have to spend a lot of time and Primordial Energy.
Aside from this, Xiao Chen discovered three ten-year-old youths among the Xiao Clan's younger generation. They had pretty good talent and were worth sending to the Kunlun Realm to be nurtured.
It looked like Xiao Chen's Luck had affected the main clan, allowing the Xiao Clan to produce three young geniuses.
The people of Xiao Jian's generation no longer had much room for improvement. To them, the Kunlun Realm was not a blessed land. They might as well remain in the Sky Dome Realm.
After bringing three more people back to the Kunlun Realm, Xiao Chen would have to spend another thirty thousand Superior Grade Astral Cores. Even though Xiao Chen was rich and overbearing, he found this somewhat unbearable. No wonder the people of the Kunlun Realm did not casually go to the lower realms.
One month passed. After he finished what he needed to do, Xiao Chen rushed to the Heavenly Saber Pavilion somewhat impatiently.
Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense detected the presence of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. He immediately tore space and entered a spatial tear, rushing over at lightning speed.
There were no obstructions in this spatial tear. A person's speed could be increased infinitely, even faster than lightning.
In merely a few breaths, Xiao Chen appeared in the sky above the Heavenly Saber Pavilion's Qingyun Peak. He scanned the area with his Spiritual Sense but did not discover Liu Ruyue.
"She is not at Qingyun Peak. She probably went out."
Xiao Chen did not worry. With Liu Ruyue's current strength, she should be able to protect herself in the Sky Dome Realm.
Xiao Chen did not find Liu Ruyue, but he did find Liu Suifeng. This brat had not changed at all. Revealing a smile on his face, Xiao Chen silently appeared behind Liu Suifeng.
Liu Suifeng was currently drinking wine in the courtyard, humming a tune in satisfaction. He was clearly in a good mood.
"Hehe! Coincidentally, Xinyun has not been around for the past few days. My days have become much more comfortable. Tomorrow, I will go to the other peaks. Juren Peak seems to have accepted a new female disciple. She is very pretty. Hahaha! I will go to Juren Peak!"
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. It looked like his wife was very strict with this brother-in-law of his.
"Suifeng, it turns out that you have such thoughts. When Junior Sister Xinyun returns, I have to tell her about it."
Suddenly, Xiao Chen spoke, deciding to tease Liu Suifeng.
"Who is it?!"
Liu Suifeng was so startled that he vomited a mouthful of wine. When he turned his head back, he recognized Xiao Chen's appearance. He revealed an expression of extreme joy and said, "Big Brother Xiao Chen, so it is you. You are back again. Hahaha! You scared me to death."
Big Brother? Didn't Suifeng always call me brother-in-law?
Xiao Chen smiled and asked, "Where's your sister?"
"My sister?" Liu Suifeng said with some confusion, "Big Brother Xiao Chen, did you remember wrong? Since when did I have an elder sister?"
"Boom!"
The smile on Xiao Chen's face froze. It was like he was struck by lightning. He did not dare to believe Liu Suifeng's words.
