In a continuous mountain range outside Divine Dragon City:
Xiao Chen stood on one of the unremarkable peaks. When he looked back, he remained silent.
He had not expected the competition between the seven outer palaces to end like this.
He felt somewhat wronged, somewhat helpless, but mostly guilty.
The First Palace Master took the initiative to fight with Ancestor Dragon City's Elders for him. His brothers and friends did not hesitate to oppose Ancestor Dragon City to protect him.
After causing such a huge commotion, they would definitely be punished in the end.
"Big Brother Xiao, are we not leaving?"
Sang came out of the Divine Universe Stele and looked at Xiao Chen with some worry.
Sang was very worried about Xiao Chen's current situation. He knew that Xiao Chen blamed himself and would not be able to calm down for now.
"Was I too rash? At worst, I'll just make a trip to Ancestor Dragon City. Isn't that just exposing my Blue Dragon bloodline?"
Xiao Chen said softly as he looked into the distance.
Xiao Chen had always been swift and decisive when doing things, rarely regretting them.
However, he had not expected to drag in so many people this time.
In reality, Xiao Chen could not be blamed for many things.
It was trouble that sought him out, not that he took the initiative to create trouble. Situ Changfeng and the others charged out of their own volition.
It was just like how Xiao Chen risked his life to save Situ Changfeng without hesitation in Desolate God Valley.
All he could do was follow his heart.
However, no matter how resolute a heart was, there would be a weak and soft side. There would always be heartache that was hard to control.
On this day, Xiao Chen truly felt helpless after his dream shattered in Divine Dragon City.
The land of shattered dreams. Broken dreams. Broken heart.
Five years of wandering, five years of heartache. He was just one step away from seeing Liu Ruyue.
When Murong Yan attacked in rage and the Heaven Dragon Palace disciples attacked, cracks appeared in that proud and stubborn heart that would never give up. Cracks appeared in that proud and stubborn heart that would never give up, a broken heart that was hard to come by.
After the shocking battle during the Great Tribulation of the Kunlun Realm, Xiao Chen had not felt such emotions for many years already.
"Let's go."
Xiao Chen could not bear to watch. He could not bear to look at the land of shattered dreams.
"Where to next? Are we leaving the Divine Dragon Empire? "Sang asked.
"Recuperate first …"
Three days later.
The commotion in Divine Dragon City slowly calmed down. After the initial commotion, people finally figured out the truth.
No one expected the commotion that resulted in two horrifying Sovereign Emperors fighting in Divine Dragon City.
It was actually caused by an inconspicuous Outer Palace disciple.
Xiao Chen, a disciple who only had some fame in the outer palaces, instantly swept through the entire Divine Dragon Empire.
Whether it was the Imperial Emperor or Star Lord Cloud Sea, they all knew of this person.
In the competition between the Seven Palaces, Qin Mu, who had suppressed the Qin Family's Twin Star, had been discovered to be a fake. This had caused a huge commotion.
What was even more shocking was that the Blue Dragon Palace's Situ Changfeng, the Golden Dragon Palace's Wei Hongfei … all the heaven-class core disciples of the Heaven Dragon Palace stepped forward for such a person.
As the Heaven Dragon Palace's First Palace Master, Yi Yun did not hesitate to fight with Ancestor Dragon City's Supreme Elder.
Everything was to send this person out of Divine Dragon City.
The story was too bizarre, but it was usually the bizarre that would be praised by people. As time went by, people dug up Xiao Chen's past deeds of chopping down Rakshasa Tian's clone and rescuing the Flame Dragon Legion alone.
This was even more shocking and inconceivable.
Seven days later, in a small teahouse by the roadside in the ancient dragon city where the White Dragon Palace was:
Some people sat in a rather desolate teahouse, drinking tea and chatting.
"To think that this Xiao Chen has not been caught yet. This is strange. It has already been seven days, but we have not even seen a shadow of him. This is really ridiculous. "
"The Blood Dragon Guards have always been known for their efficiency. To think that they could not find any clues at all. This is indeed strange."
"I heard that there was something even more bizarre. There was a Dragon Race expert skilled in divination who tried to divine Xiao Chen's position. In the end, all of them drained their Soul Energy, vomited blood, and fainted. When they woke up, they did not say a word. No one dared to divine where this Xiao Chen was anymore! "
"Haha! That is an absolute genius who successfully practiced the Supreme Dragon Fist. There will always be some exceptions."
"Speaking of the Supreme Dragon Fist, have you heard of it? I heard that the Qin Clan's twin stars already brought out the limits of the Emperor Dragon Fist. However, that Xiao Chen still defeated them!"
"How come I haven't heard of it? The Emperor Dragon Fist has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. It is the top offensive Martial Technique of the Dragon Race, known as the king of Fist Techniques. Even in the entire Central Great Realm, Fist Techniques that can compare to it are as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. Who could have expected that it would lose to the Supreme Dragon Fist? "
"A fortune-teller said that the Golden Dragon Palace's Luck is already affected. The Golden Dragon bloodline has already sent out the Dragon Protecting Squad. The order is to kill Xiao Chen on the spot! "
"The Golden Dragon Palace's group of bastards is really ruthless. However, thinking about it, it makes sense … this Xiao Chen is already a threat to their ruling position. If it were me, I would have killed him before there were any signs. "
In a corner of the teahouse, a cloaked figure put down his teacup, left behind some Spirit Jades, and stood up to leave.
The person under the black cloak was Xiao Chen.
After ten days, Xiao Chen's injuries had healed. After he recovered, he carefully made his way to this place.
The White Dragon Palace did not put much effort into pursuing Xiao Chen. They did not even search for suspicious people.
However, Xiao Chen did not lower his guard. When he came to investigate, he only came to this desolate teahouse. He did not even go to the more bustling inns.
However, there was not much useful information. It was all outdated information.
Xiao Chen already knew about this three days ago.
According to the rumors, there were Situ Changfeng, Murong Yan, and the many disciples of the Heaven Dragon Palace.
Surprisingly, they were not severely punished. They were only disqualified from entering Ancestor Dragon City for one year.
After that, the various outer palaces dealt with them on their own.
This was already the best result. It looked like Ancestor Dragon City still had some boldness and did not make things difficult for these disciples.
Xiao Chen's only worry was the First Palace Master. Even now, there had been no news of the First Palace Master.
One hour later, Xiao Chen stopped at the periphery of the mountain range where the White Dragon Palace was.
He had already circled the entire White Dragon Palace.
The formations layered over each other. If one tried to barge in, one would just be seeking death.
Xiao Chen asked, "Sang, do you have a way?"
"There's no problem. One of their formations uses the power of the mountains, using everything as a formation. I can communicate with some ancient trees and use that to make a breakthrough. If we are careful, we can enter. "
"Alright."
After putting on the Death God Mask, Xiao Chen successfully infiltrated the place after some effort.
The Death God Mask had the ability to isolate all auras. Even a Sovereign Emperor would find it hard to detect. For the past ten days, Xiao Chen had been able to prevent the various factions from tracking him largely because of the Death God Mask.
When necessary, the Death God Mask could even merge itself into the void to avoid detection.
The White Dragon Palace was extremely vast. When Xiao Chen silently barged in at night, he did not attract any attention.
Following the route in his memory, Xiao Chen carefully made his way to Liu Ruyun's residence.
By relying on the Death God Mask to isolate his aura, Xiao Chen evaded the many guards.
When the full moon rose, Xiao Chen finally arrived at the side of the lake between the towering mountains and precipitous ridges.
The lake water was as clear as before. White mist seeped out of the lake's surface at night, making it look even colder when illuminated by the moonlight.
An exquisite pavilion shrouded in white mist stood in the center of the lake, appearing indistinct at a glance.
Mountains surrounded the surroundings, and the lake water looked like a painting. The distant mountain ranges rose and fell.
The lake water looked like jade amid the undulating mountain ranges, looking like a flawless piece of unpolished jade embedded in the mountains.
As Xiao Chen stood at the lake's edge, he saw that the picturesque lake was incredibly long and narrow, extending out between two mountain ranges.
This small lake actually gave off the feeling of a vast sea, vast and unfathomable.
As for the pavilion in the center of the lake, Xiao Chen peered through the mist. Dragons and jade phoenixes were carved in the pavilion, looking pure white.
The pavilion flickered with a crystalline light, reflecting the rippling, jade-green surface of the lake.
"I've arrived."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself as he stared at the pavilion.
Liu Ruyue's residence in the White Dragon Palace was Xiao Chen's destination.
Although he could not go to Ancestor Dragon City, Xiao Chen had not forgotten his initial purpose in coming to the Divine Dragon Empire.
Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and he flew over silently. His figure rose and fell a few times on the lake's surface. Then, he gently drifted down like a swallow and landed on the pavilion's roof.
Xiao Chen did not enter rashly, as there were people inside.
Inside the pavilion, Liu Ruyun held a painting with only Xiao Chen's silhouette. She said hatefully, "Damn Xiao Chen … Damn Xiao Chen! We agreed to go to Ancestor Dragon City together. Why did you cause such a huge commotion? It is just a Movement Technique. You could have just told me, and I would have gotten my father to do it for you. It would have been easy. "
"You bastard! You left without a conscience. You should have at least reported that you were safe! I'll stab you to death! I'll stab you to death … "
As the valiant and formidable-looking Liu Ruyun spoke, her eyes turned somewhat moist.
This girl did not know why she felt disappointed. She just felt her nose turn sour. Then, she behaved like a child, poking many holes in the painting.
Xiao Chen looked at the messy painting on the ground. All of them had similar holes. It was clear that this was not her first day here.
Liu Ruyun only left in embarrassment when it was late at night.
Xiao Chen sighed in his heart. After Liu Ruyue was far away, he silently entered the pavilion.
Liu Ruyun once said that as long as Liu Ruyue had time, she would come back to stay for a while. Xiao Chen did not know when exactly, but this was where Liu Ruyue stayed in the White Dragon Palace.
He waited patiently. Perhaps he might get a chance to meet Liu Ruyue before he left.
He could only leave such an opportunity to heaven and try his luck. Xiao Chen did not hold much hope.
Time passed quietly. Soon, one month passed.
Xiao Chen already felt some despair. During this time, Sang urged him several times to leave this place quickly.
There were many experts in the White Dragon Palace. Once discovered, only death awaited him.
"Big Brother Xiao Chen, we really have to go. Right now, the most important thing is to leave the Divine Dragon Empire. We really cannot remain in this White Dragon Palace."
Sang's voice came from the Divine Universe Stele again.
Xiao Chen had already waited for many days. He had promised Sang to leave several times, but he could not help staying.
Xiao Chen sighed softly, "Let's leave after tonight."
Xiao Chen was destined not to see Liu Ruyue again. Once he left, he did not know when he could see Liu Ruyue again.
"Someone is approaching."
Just at this moment, Xiao Chen and Sang both sensed someone slowly floating over from the lake.
It was not Liu Ruyun. In the past month, Liu Ruyun had come several times. Xiao Chen and Sang were already very familiar with her aura.
It's her?
