What request should he make?
His request could not be too excessive. He could not possibly ask for the extermination of all the Heavenly Slaughter Sect disciples present.
Many people focused their attention on Xiao Chen. They were all very concerned about what kind of request he would make.
Even among Divine Vein Realm Sovereign Emperors, the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor was one of the strongest.
Xiao Chen even dared to slap the Hound Lion Empire's royal court's winemaker.
Most importantly, in the Desolate Sea, Peach Blossom City was a rather special force.
Peach Blossom City was also a rather special force. It did not differentiate between righteous and evil, not stopping people from coming and going. Both the righteous and demonic factions would give the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor some face.
It was extremely rare for someone to make a request of the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor.
After a while, Xiao Chen said, "Lord City Lord, if I return to the Divine Dragon Empire one day, can you protect my life?"
The moment Xiao Chen said that, everyone fell silent.
Many people thought of all sorts of possibilities. However, they had not expected Xiao Chen to make such a request.
Everyone here had long since figured out Xiao Chen's background.
They knew that he caused a huge commotion in Divine Dragon City during the competition between the seven outer palaces. Furthermore, he cultivated the forbidden Supreme Dragon Fist. Xiao Chen had become a thorn in the Golden Dragon bloodline's side. It was already a miracle that he managed to escape the Divine Dragon Empire.
To think that Xiao Chen still wanted to return. This person was truly suicidal!
"Interesting. If we want to protect his life in the Divine Dragon Empire, how can we talk about merging? The Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor definitely has no problem protecting himself. However, it will be difficult to protect him from the Golden Dragon bloodline. "
"This person is really stubborn. Of all requests, he could not make such a request. The Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor collected many Secret Treasures and Secret Techniques. Any one of them would be a priceless treasure. "
"To think that he wants to return. It is unknown whether he can avoid the Golden Dragon's pursuit outside."
The cultivators in the City Lord's Residence discussed this, feeling pity for Xiao Chen.
The Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor remained silent for three seconds before saying, "I do not know if I can protect your life in the Divine Dragon Empire. Back then, when I fought with the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor, we both had our victories. If you knew about the horrifying existence behind the Golden Dragon bloodline, you might not have made such a request.
"However, since you raised it, I will still agree. If you really return to the Divine Dragon Empire one day, I will do my best to protect your life. "
There was a terrifying existence behind the Golden Divine Dragons?
Xiao Chen felt slightly stunned when he heard that. To think that even the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor said that.
Xiao Chen once suspected that the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor imprisoned the previous-generation Heaven Dragon in the Starry Heavens Dragon Prison. This was because Xiao Chen learned a secret that he should not have known. After that, that mysterious faction got the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor to restrain the previous-generation Heaven Dragon.
This was because the appearance of the Heaven Dragon could raise the Divine Dragon Empire's Luck.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, no one would sever their own arm to imprison the Heaven Dragon.
"Thank you, City Lord."
Before Xiao Chen could think too much, the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor agreed in the end.
The Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor nodded slightly. Then, he looked at the others and said, "This time, everyone brought peak-quality wine. Peach Blossom City will not mistreat everyone. After this, Old Cui will pick some treasures from my Treasury to give to everyone."
"Many thanks, City Lord."
Even if they did not win the Wine King Contest, they might be able to obtain a part of the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor's collection. This trip was not in vain.
The others all stood up and performed cupped-fist salutes in thanks.
This Peach Blossom Gathering came to an end here. All that was left was the Peach Blossom Banquet.
However, just as the group prepared to take their leave, the Heavenly Slaughter Sect's Young Sect Master suddenly said, "Brother Xiao Chen, if you can trade Heart Burn's recipe to me, I can let bygones be bygones for what you did to the Heavenly Slaughter Sect!"
The moment Xiao Chen said that, the atmosphere turned somewhat strange.
Originally, everyone had a tacit understanding about this topic. Since Heart Burn appeared, then Xiao Chen must have obtained the recipe.
However, the matter of this recipe was somewhat sensitive and not suitable to be discussed in public.
Now that the Heavenly Slaughter Sect's Wang Yun mentioned it in public, he clearly harbored malicious intent.
The Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor raised his eyebrows. Then, he looked at Wang Yun and said, "In Peach Blossom City, we only talk about wine and nothing else. If you are not willing to stay and drink, I can send Young Master Wang out of the city. "
"I don't dare. I was just speaking casually."
When Wang Yun saw the situation, he quickly changed the topic, not saying anything more.
Clearly, the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor meant that as long as Xiao Chen remained in Peach Blossom City, he would protect Xiao Chen.
This stopped the other people who had other thoughts from thinking too much.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. He had long expected that someone would bring up the recipe.
Actually, before he came, he had already thought of a way to deal with this.
Xiao Chen stepped forward and took out the recipe. "City Lord, can you help me keep this recipe safe?"
After it was exposed, this recipe would be a disaster in Xiao Chen's hands.
He might attract a Great Perfection Sovereign Personage or even a Sovereign Emperor. The losses outweighed the gains. Xiao Chen might as well do the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor a favor and hand it over to the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor.
The recipe for Heart Burn was written on a special beast bone. The words were similar to divine characters and could not be read or memorized.
He was unable to read or memorize it. Only when he held the beast bone in his hand could he correctly read the formula.
In reality, the Nine-Colored Divine Phoenix had used a similar method.
The Peach Blossom City Lord felt slightly stunned before understanding. He received the recipe and took a look. Then, he said, "Don't worry. It is in my hands. You can come and take it at any time."
Wang Yun was greatly startled. He had not expected Xiao Chen to do this.
Xiao Chen decisively gave up on Heart Burn's recipe.
Pei Shaoxuan smiled and said, "This fellow is a smart person and very decisive. If we keep it, as long as we leave Peach Blossom City, we will die within three days. "
The others all showed different expressions. Some even showed disappointment.
Clearly, it would be much easier to obtain the recipe in Xiao Chen's hands. In the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor's hands, there was practically no chance of obtaining it.
The eyes of the Profound Heaven's Holy Son, Wenren Yu, flickered. No one knew what he was thinking.
After putting away the recipe, the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor smiled and said, "Let the banquet begin. Everyone, drink to your heart's content."
The Peach Blossom Banquet began. The Peach Blossom City Lord took out some of the fine wine he normally collected for the cultivators attending the Peach Blossom Wine Festival to enjoy.
The bustling banquet lasted until dusk before slowly ending.
Xiao Chen returned to the Heavenly Fragrance's residence together with the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter.
"Congratulations, Young Master Xiao. It is truly rare for you to emerge victorious in the Wine King Contest," the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter said with a faint smile.
Chu Xiang said in admiration, "Young Master Xiao is really decisive. You gave up on the recipe of the Dragon Race's best wine without hesitation, not giving that Wang Yun any chance. "
Xiao Chen said calmly, "For this recipe to land in my hands, I practically did not spend much effort. It is not a pity to give it away. Furthermore, it is not easy to brew Heart Burn. Even Grandpa Seven does not have a high success rate. I was lucky to be able to brew a flask this time. Oh, by the way, I have something to ask the Holy Daughter. "
The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter asked, "You want to ask about the Ethereal Immortal Palace?"
"There is no rush for the Ethereal Immortal Palace for now. I would like to ask the Holy Daughter if you know the faction behind the Golden Dragon Race that the City Lord mentioned."
It was not difficult to find out about the Ethereal Immortal Palace. What truly concerned Xiao Chen was the existence behind the Golden Dragon Race.
The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter hesitated for a while before replying, "Young Master Xiao will naturally know what you need to know. If you do not know now, there must be a reason. I can only say that the time is not right."
Clearly, the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter knew the answer.
When Chu Xiang saw Xiao Chen looking at her, she smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master Xiao, don't look at me. I do not know what you are talking about."
"Alright, the time is not right."
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly and did not pursue the matter.
The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter said calmly, "Young Master Xiao, not pursuing the matter is actually a good thing. You will know when you need to know. There is one more thing that I need to tell you. Qin Zhuolin will come and look for you three days from now. He already agreed. "
Xiao Chen felt slightly surprised. "I only passed on a message, and he agreed?"
The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter smiled and said, "Indeed. I owe Young Master Xiao a favor. If you need any help, you can come and look for me at any time. As long as Young Master Xiao says the word, I can help you resolve your conflict with the Heavenly Slaughter Sect, getting them to stop bothering you. "
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I'll owe him a favor first. There is no need to trouble the Holy Daughter with such trouble."
"Good. It is getting late. Chu Xiang, send Young Master Xiao back to rest."
The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter did not say anything more. She bowed slowly and left.
