Returning to Misty Cloud Tower
Ning Qi glanced at Chu Xian and the others indifferently. No one dared to look him in the eye. They all lowered their heads and looked at the current Cloud Rising Sect. Ning Qi smiled and shook his head, then left. After Zhu Chen's reminder, he planned to go to Cloud Mist Tower to see the true face of the Book of Life and Death.
Was it a magic tool with the power of laws?
If it was true, Ning Qi planned to take it away. No one would complain about having too many magic tools. Other than the Dragon Slayer Saber which was considered an incomplete magic tool, he only had the Nine Divine Bells. It was just that he could not use it often. Ning Qi did not want the guy that Little Six was afraid of to come after smelling it.
…
"Young Master Zhu Chen, you're awake?"
Chu Xian and the others surrounded Zhu Chen and were pleasantly surprised to see him slowly awaken.
"What happened to me … Hiss …"
Just as Zhu Chen opened his mouth, he felt an intense pain on his face, causing him to suck in a breath of cold air. Soon after, he remembered how he was knocked unconscious by Ning Qi, and his blood instantly rushed to his head. However, his face was no different from a braised pig head, and no one could see the shame and anger on his face.
"Damn it! Damn it! I will never let you off! "
Zhu Chen shouted angrily. His voice had become much sharper.
Everyone involuntarily sighed quietly in their hearts when they saw this. Zhu Chen's background was very frightening and his talent was also very abnormal. He had broken through to a one star Dou Zun at the age of thirteen or fourteen. If he was placed in the nine great clans back then, he would definitely be an ultimate heaven's pride existence. However, just a couple of slaps had caused his mentality to change drastically. He had lost his previous calmness. In terms of mentality, it was likely that he was even inferior to an ordinary heaven's pride.
However, they still had to rely on Zhu Chen and suck up to him.
Chu Xian said in a low voice, "Young Master Zhu Chen, we will send a message back to the family to help you pay attention to that guy's whereabouts."
Zhu Chen glanced coldly at Chu Xian and nodded slightly. Then, a palm-sized mirror appeared in his hand. The moment this mirror appeared, it emitted a heart-palpitating aura.
A thick fog flashed across the mirror. Following that, a face appeared in the mirror. When he saw Zhu Chen's pig head, he was slightly stunned.
"Ninth Brother, what's wrong?"
"Big brother, I was humiliated in Dongxuan. Please come and avenge me!"
Zhu Chen said respectfully.
"Dongxuan? Oh, you mean the remote place that the family asked you to go and see if there are any divine objects and magic tools? "
The person in the mirror seemed to think for a while before remembering where Dongxuan was.
Ever since hundreds of continental fragments fused together, all the major clans had sent people to explore the various places, hoping to find divine objects and artifacts. The Zhu Clan was no exception. God knew how many people like Zhu Chen had been sent out.
"Yes."
Zhu Chen nodded.
Everyone looked at the mirror curiously. The person in the mirror should be the true genius of the Zhu Family, right?
They were different from the Nine Great Clans. They already knew that existences like the Four Great Clans could only be ranked as Heaven's Chosen after breaking through to the Dou Di class.
"Ninth Brother, Big Brother has been preparing for war recently. I'm going to fight for the opportunity to enter the divine object and comprehend the laws. I really can't go there myself. Why don't I send two attendants to you?"
The person in the mirror hesitated for a moment before saying.
A trace of disappointment flashed across Zhu Chen's eyes, but he still nodded and said, "Thank you, big brother!"
He was aware of those two servants. They were not humans. Instead, they were transformed Demonic Beasts. Even though they did not comprehend the strength of the laws, their fighting strength far exceeded that of an ordinary peak Dou Di. It should be sufficient with them here.
"Ninth Brother, be careful. And all of you. If anything happens to him in Dongxuan, none of you will be able to escape!"
The person in the mirror suddenly used an ice-cold gaze to sweep over Chu Xian's group. The expressions of the six Dou Zuns who had stuck their heads in out of curiosity immediately became dull. They knew that their appearance had been seen by the other party.
"Yes!"
Chu Xian hurriedly replied.
She had wanted to use her appearance to leave an impression in the other party's heart. Unexpectedly, the other party had disappeared and the mirror returned to its original state.
"Let's go to the Nine Regions Empire."
Zhu Chen kept the mirror and snorted coldly.
…
The Nine Regions Empire.
"I haven't been here for a long time. I'll pay a visit after settling the matter of the Book of Life and Death and see if there are any new developments from Old Jin."
The corner of Ning Qi's mouth curled up as he stood on the streets of the capital.
Although he had invited Jin Sheng to the War God Hall, Jin Sheng had ultimately chosen to stay in the Nine Regions Empire's Tianji Institute. Ning Qi was not dissatisfied with his choice. After all, Jin Sheng was born in the Nine Regions and had deep feelings for the Nine Regions Empire. Moreover, the Tianji Institute was the most important existence in the Nine Regions Empire other than the palace. Without Jin Sheng, the Nine Regions Empire's national strength would drop by at least fifty percent!
"I wonder if Xu Zhen and his wife have found their daughter."
The mansion that Dongfang Haojie had previously stayed in had been changed. There was a signboard with the words "Tianwu Duke Mansion" hanging on it.
Cloud Mist Restaurant.
"Sir, what would you like to order?"
The waiter stood beside Ning Qi and asked with a smile.
"Just give me some of your specialty dishes."
Ning Qi smiled.
"Alright, sir, please wait for a moment."
The waiter smiled, turned around and left.
Cloud Mist Restaurant's business was very good. There were hundreds of tables on the second floor where Ning Qi stayed, but they were almost all occupied.
"Brother Lin, I've told you before. The Book of Life and Death never makes a mistake. Anyone whose name appears on it will definitely die. Look, it's been a year and there's still no news from Ning Beixuan. He's obviously dead."
"But how do you explain what happened to the Cloud Rising Clan? I think there might be other reasons. The Book of Life and Death never implicates a clan. "
"Ning Beixuan is Ning Beixuan, and the Cloud Rising Clan is the Cloud Rising Clan. Who knows what happened to them? Perhaps they knew that Ning Beixuan was dead, and they were afraid that someone would come for revenge due to the changes in the world, so they disbanded their sects or went into hiding. In any case, Ning Beixuan died because of the Book of Life and Death. Being able to eat at Misty Cloud Restaurant is like killing Ning Beixuan with our own hands.
"Huh, why did Miss Ding Ling bring people up personally today?"
Everyone's gazes simultaneously swept towards the staircase. They saw Misty Tower's owner, Ding Ling, personally leading four young men up to the second floor.
"Peak Emperor Dou who has comprehended at least one law. It seems that the Scholar of Heaven and Earth is also at this level. Are these four from the Greedy Wolf Sect?"
Ning Qi narrowed his eyes and looked at Ding Ling and the others.
The Book of Life and Death belonged to the Greedy Wolf Sect, so the Cloud Mist Restaurant was naturally related to the Greedy Wolf Sect.
Ding Ling furrowed her brows as she scanned the room. She discovered that all the seats on the second floor were full. Her gaze immediately landed on Ning Qi's table. Ning Qi was the only one at his table, and the food was not served yet. The table was very clean.
"This way please."
