The Zhou Dynasty was one of the 10 dynasties and was extremely powerful. Even in the entire Yunzhou, it was one of the top forces.
Within this force, there were 72 deputies. Every single one of them was of the completion level and was personally appointed by the emperor. They were all extremely powerful.
Deputy Xiao Yao was one of them. His ranking was not low either, around the middle. He was also deeply trusted by the emperor and was considered one of the most powerful figures in the Zhou Dynasty. His position was honorable and he had a lot of power.
Therefore, this person has always been overbearing. Especially on his own land, he behaved like a local tyrant and didn't think much of anyone.
With his identity, he naturally lived a comfortable and carefree life. However, these days, he has been very irritated. He has been breaking things and cursing at his subordinates.
At this moment, he had just executed two maids.
"Strange, why am I feeling irritated all of a sudden?"
Deputy Xiao Yao sat on a chair in the grand hall and frowned. He mumbled to himself, "Could it be, I am sensing danger?"
At his level, he had already faintly come into contact with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. When danger approached, he would have an indescribable sense. Though it may not be accurate, once he feels irritated, then he is 80% to 90% certain.
"Danger?"
Deputy Xiao Yao revealed a cold smile, "I am a completion leveled powerhouse, the title personally appointed by the emperor. Who dares to harm me?"
Thinking about it, his brows relaxed. He poured himself another cup of wine and drank it all in one gulp. However, just as he was about to relax, a silhouette appeared in his head.
It was a youth around the age of 15 or 16. He held onto a sword with his left hand and a halberd with his right. He was wearing a golden armor and had a pair of wings on his back. Like a descendant of a God, his vigor was overpowering.
Without a doubt, he was thinking of Ling Xian from seven years ago.
This was normal. During the battle back then, Ling Xian used foundational Qi to defend against his completion leveled prowess. His arrogance was similar to the reincarnation of a real immortal. It was hard not to remember him!
"Dammit, why am I suddenly thinking of him?"
Deputy Xiao Yao's expression darkened. He crushed the wine glass in his hand and muttered to himself, "This man sure is haunting me. Could it be … that my sense of danger came from him?"
"Impossible. Although he was able to block my attack in the past, he was only barely able to block it. What's more, I shattered the teleportation array with a single palm strike, causing a spatial turbulence. I don't believe that he can escape from the spatial turbulence. "
Deputy Xiao Yao frowned. Even though he was certain that Ling Xian was dead, for some reason, he felt uneasy.
"Damn it! It doesn't matter if the sense of danger comes from this person or not, I have to be prepared." Deputy Xiao Yao was silent for a while before he sent a message to Deputy Chang An, Deputy Chi, and Deputy Zhan.
Since the territories of these three kings were the closest, he thought of them first. His goal was, of course, to have these three completion leveled powerhouses stay behind to deal with unknown dangers.
"There should be no mistakes now. Even if there is danger, he is no opponent of ours." Deputy Xiao Yao revealed a victorious smile and his entire being finally relaxed.
Deputy Chang An, Deputy Zhan, and Deputy Chi were all famous powerhouses of the Zhou Dynasty. Asking them to stay behind meant his life would be in no danger.
Therefore, why wouldn't Deputy Xiao Yao feel relaxed? Just like that, he sat in the grand hall and tasted the rare wine as he waited for the arrival of the three deputies.
After about half a day, the Sun began to sink, shedding down a faint red glow.
The three deputies finally arrived as well. As if they had made an appointment, they all appeared in front of Deputy Xiao Yao's palace.
"Haha, Deputy Xiao Yao, we haven't seen each other in seven to eight years. Why did you suddenly think of buying me a drink?" Deputy Chi laughed out loud. His fiery red hair danced in the wind like a burning flame.
"There should be a reason. Or else why would he think of us?" Zhan Wang had thick brows and big eyes. His expression was stern and stern. As he marched forward, he exuded a threatening aura.
Deputy Chang An was wearing a green robe. He didn't say anything and walked straight to his seat. It seemed like he was a man of few words.
"Haha, look at what you are saying. Can't we catch up with old friends if we have nothing to do?" Deputy Xiao Yao laughed. But in the next second, he sighed, "But, you are right. I did invite you here for a reason."
"See, I knew it. We have known each other for decades. If you have something to say, then say it. Don't be so wishy-washy. "Deputy Chi said loudly.
"Aye, these past few days, I have been feeling restless for some reason. I'm sure you all know that this is the sign of an approaching danger. "Deputy Xiao Yao sighed.
"That's true. However, you are the mighty Marquis Xiao Yao. For you to be scared to this extent is a disgrace to your status." Warlord coldly harrumphed.
Deputy Xiao Yao bitterly chuckled, "It's not that I am a coward. It's that I haven't felt this way in more than a decade. I think that if there really is a danger this time, it will be no small matter. That's why I've specially invited all of you here to lend me a hand. "
"Haha, don't worry. With me here, no matter who it is, only death awaits them!" Deputy Chi slapped his chest and promised. His face was full of confidence.
Zhan Wang nodded softly, "Don't worry. No matter who it is, with the four of us working together, they won't be able to leave."
"Thank you." Deputy Xiao Yao was ecstatic. He shifted his gaze to the silent Deputy Chang An, "Brother Chang An, I wonder if you are willing to help me?"
"Since I am here, I will not sit by and do nothing," Deputy Chang An said softly.
"Haha, good, very good." Deputy Xiao Yao laughed out loud, "With the help of the three of you, this danger will be solved for sure!"
The other three were smiling as well. They felt that with the four of them working together, they could do whatever they wanted in the completion level without fear.
Just as the few of them were laughing at each other, a strange wave of evil suddenly descended and engulfed the entire Deputy Xiao Yao Palace.
At the same time, a silhouette in a black robe slowly walked in from afar. This person's expression was lifeless and his eyes were blood red. Like a soulless corpse, he was merely a shell.
Her body was exuding an extremely dense amount of blood Qi. With every step she took, the murderous aura she exuded intensified, dropping the temperature of the entire hall to freezing point.
It was none other than the demonic Ling Tian Xiang.
"Hmm?"
The four kings frowned when they sensed the strange demonic aura coming from the newcomer. They exclaimed in surprise, "A person who has become a demon?"
Faced with the four completion leveled cultivators' questions, Ling Tian Xiang did not answer. She continued to walk forward slowly and steadily. The murderous aura she exuded was getting thicker and thicker.
Seeing this, the four deputies frowned and manipulated their Golden Dan's Qi. They were on high alert. Their identities were extraordinary and they were naturally knowledgeable. They knew very well that demonic people are irrational and will only stop when they fall.
Therefore, the four deputies were on high alert and did not dare to be reckless.
It was obvious that a shocking war was about to begin.
Just as Ling Tian Xiang was about to kill the four deputies, a complex sigh arose in the hall.
"Tian Xiang, you really came."
