Just like how Chen Luoyang visited the East Zhou Dynasty and Black Water Extreme Palace, the Ancient God sent an official note to Xian Tian Palace, setting a date and officially paying a visit.
This action caused the other people in the mortal world to be extremely surprised.
Xian Tian Palace had been keeping a low profile since the others didn't dare to touch it.
But at the same time, because of the Heavenly Phoenix, it was a tough nut to crack.
Xian Tian Palace pretended to be dead and everyone was happy to see it, so they pretended not to see it.
The mortal world was in chaos, but this place seemed to have become an independent pure land.
The Ancient God swallowed the Chu Lands but also missed it. Xian Tian Palace also turned a blind eye to the South Chu Dynasty's destruction.
Why did the demon sovereign suddenly pay a visit to Xian Tian Palace today?
With Chen Luoyang's momentum, no matter how one looked at it, it would be better to leave Xian Tian Palace as the last, right?
Did this young man really look down on everyone in the world just because of his previous consecutive victories?
"Not necessarily, it's more likely that everyone is prejudiced."
In the Heavenly Seal City of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, 'Rain Master' Cheng Shuzhi lightly tapped his sore knees. "He visited the Ultimate Black Water Palace, but he turned hostile and attacked the Ultimate Black Water Palace on the spot, leaving a bad impression on everyone. It was as if he went there to start a war. But in fact, it was more likely that he found out that the Devil Queen was not there and changed his mind."
Cheng Shuzhi moved his shoulder joints, "Although we can't see it clearly, Chen Luoyang visited Ji Tianqiong for a reason."
"What a shame, with the demon palace as an example, Xian Tian Palace won't let their guard down, right?" The Old Duke of Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Xu Qizhen, pondered and said, "The Celestial Phoenix, which is also from the Innate Tomb, might be the key to breaking Chen Luoyang's Ancient Formation of Emperor Xi. All the forces are paying close attention to it, and many of them are contacting it. It's reasonable that Chen Luoyang is wary of it.
Cheng Shuzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The Heavenly Phoenix won't disappear like the demon queen Ji Tianqiong, right?"
Xu Qizhen also smiled bitterly, "The mortal world is too strange recently."
As he spoke, his expression gradually became serious. "Speaking of which, Her Majesty and the others were ultimately unable to stop Xu Peng and allowed him to escape in advance."
Cheng Shuzhi nodded, "Yes, according to Azure Dragon Island Master, if we don't grasp this opportunity, it will be very difficult to find him again."
"It's a pity that Swordmaster Darknorth ran into Cheng Hui at the last moment and fought with him. Otherwise, he might have had a chance." Xu Qizhen sighed regretfully.
"Not necessarily. It's said that Xu Peng sensed it very early. If Swordmaster Darknorth hadn't been entangled with Cheng Hui, he might not have been able to make it in time." Cheng Shuzhi shrugged.
"This matter has stalled the hands and feet of the three Revered Martial Artists …" Xu Qizhen's voice was deep.
Cheng Shu Zhi stood up and paced back and forth on the ground twice. "There is no harm. For His Majesty, this is also a chance to recuperate. The key is next …"
He stopped and said, "According to His Majesty, the Emperor's Mausoleum might really appear soon, but I'm afraid there will be a great storm when the time comes."
Slowly, Xu Qizhen nodded solemnly.
The two of them looked at each other and sighed at the same time. "Let's keep a closer eye on them."
Not only the Eastern Zhou, but many other forces in the mortal world were also paying close attention to Chen Luoyang and Xian Tian Palace.
The Xian Tian Palace was even more excited.
Strictly speaking, this wasn't the first time Chen Luoyang came to Xian Tian Palace.
But the last time he came, he brought quite a lot of trouble to Xian Tian Palace.
Of course, it wasn't all because of him.
But speaking of which, during the internal strife in Xian Tian Palace, other than the Xian Tian Palace's own people, the only outsider who got involved was Chen Luoyang.
Last time, Xian Tian Palace acted in the dark, but this time, Xian Tian Palace made an official visit. No matter how one looked at it, it was a little overbearing.
Especially when there were many grudges between him and Xian Tian Palace.
There was no need to mention what happened during the internal strife in Xian Tian Palace.
In the Xian Tian Tomb, Chen Luoyang buried Palace Lord You Hao, Elder Zhenlei, Mu Chao, and the other pillars of Xian Tian Palace in a single battle and destroyed half of Xian Tian Palace.
Their palace treasure, the Eight Trigrams Purple Ribbon Celestial Robe, was still in his hands.
Although there were only a few survivors and there were no witnesses, the Ancient God himself announced it to the world and Chen Luoyang didn't mind it at all.
Or else, if the Heavenly Phoenix landed in Xian Tian Palace, Chen Luoyang's battle in the Xian Tian Tomb would have removed Xian Tian Palace from the sacred ground.
And the reason why he, as a Martial Saint, was able to stand side by side with the magnates in the mortal world was because of the Emperor Xi Ancient Array Formation in the Xian Tian Tomb.
The gap between the gains and losses of the two sides was even more unsettling.
How could the Xian Tian Palace forget such a deep grudge?
Every time the news of Chen Luoyang and Emperor Xi Ancient Array Formation came from the mortal world, it was like pouring salt on the wounds of the Xian Tian Palace's people.
But what was worse was that the key to their revenge wasn't themselves.
The man and the phoenix stayed in the Xian Tian Palace and didn't have the slightest intention of looking for trouble with Chen Luoyang.
Not to mention looking for trouble, they didn't even step out of the gate. Once or twice, they would act mysteriously and their whereabouts were unknown.
There were no traces or news of them in the mortal world, so no one knew where they went and what they did.
As time went by, everyone would be on tenterhooks again.
This made the Xian Tian Palace's people's impression of Ji Zhong even more complicated, but they couldn't do anything about it.
The young disciples didn't know what happened in the Xian Tian Tomb, they only thought that Ji Zhong was a fellow disciple who had lost the sect's grace of raising him. It was inevitable that they were dissatisfied with Ji Zhong's behavior. Under the pressure from the higher-ups, they didn't dare to express their dissatisfaction in front of others, but many of them couldn't help but curse in private.
Ji Zhong never explained himself, he was as calm as before.
But this time, Chen Luoyang took the initiative to visit him, breaking the peace of his life.
"Chen Luoyang might not have come with good intentions this time," said the current Palace Lord, Nie Guanhe, as he sat opposite of Ji Zhong.
He was very sure that Chen Luoyang didn't come to visit him, the Palace Lord, but to visit Ji Zhong and the Heavenly Phoenix.
"The Heavenly Phoenix might be the bane of his Emperor Xi Ancient Array Formation." Nie Guanhe said, "This time, he might have joined forces with the 'Mad Monarch' Bie Donglai and the other experts in the dark."
"Although the Demon Monarch is cruel and callous, he has an extraordinary bearing. If he wanted to harm us, he would have done what Yan Ranshan and Southern Chu did, directly declaring war on us. In the battle at the Ultimate Blackwater Palace, he probably changed his mind at the last minute because the Demon Queen went missing."
In front of Nie Guanhe, the young man said calmly, "If he really wanted to plot against Senior Phoenix, this calamity cannot be avoided, and there is no need to avoid."
Compared to before, Ji Zhong's personal temperament was more calm, and when his eyes opened and closed, there was a glimmer of light.
The eighteenth level Nie Guanhe actually had a feeling that he couldn't see through him.
After returning from the Xian Tian Tomb, he seemed to be changing every day.
No, every moment seemed to be different from before.
Previously, he and the Heavenly Phoenix secretly left the palace, and after returning, there seemed to be no abnormalities on the surface, but there seemed to be a huge change on the inside.
When he went out with the Heavenly Phoenix, where did he go?
The reincarnation of an ancient god seems to be more mysterious and profound than I imagined … Nie Guanhe thought.
He sorted out his thoughts and said solemnly, "If there really is an accident, Mister Ji and the Heavenly Phoenix, please protect the Thousand Clouds World in the future."
The Xian Tian Palace had been through many tribulations, and their Yuan Qi was greatly damaged. Although they had the protection of the Heavenly Phoenix, it would still take a long time for them to recover and return to the peak.
Currently, the mortal world was in a state of turmoil, and just in case, the Xian Tian Palace secretly transferred some of the young disciples away from the mortal world as seeds to hide in another small world, just in case there were no unscathed eggs in the nest.
As long as the Heavenly Phoenix was there, no matter how difficult it was, there would always be a chance for them to make a comeback.
Hence, Nie Guanhe was hinting that if necessary, Ji Zhong and the Heavenly Phoenix could leave the rest of them behind to protect themselves, as long as they could take care of the fire seed left in the Thousand Clouds World.
"If the Demon Monarch is really here for Senior Phoenix, it might be best for us to leave the Xian Tian Palace," Ji Zhong stood up, "But there is no point in guessing, let's talk about it after we meet the Demon Monarch."
Nie Guanhe's expression turned solemn.
Time passed quickly, and soon, the day of Chen Luoyang's visit to the Xian Tian Palace arrived.
On this day, the Xian Tian Palace that had been sealed for a long time finally reopened and welcomed a new guest.
Chen Luoyang and the others arrived at the Xian Tian Palace.
This time, he didn't come with many people.
However, Du Qiming of the Ancient Divine Church, Wen Xinzhi of the Absolute Black Water Palace, Ni Dong of the Swallow Mountain, and Zhang Tong, the former Great General of Southern Chu, were four peak Martial Sages of the eighteenth realm.
The number of people in the Xian Tian Palace was even lesser.
Other than Palace Lord Nie Guanhe, there was only Ji Zhong.
But right now, Ji Zhong's body was shrouded in azure light, revealing the ancient god Ju Mang's image.
The one below him was precisely the legendary Heavenly Phoenix, noble, proud, and outstanding.
"Greetings, Demon Monarch," Ji Zhong and Nie Guanhe greeted Chen Luoyang calmly.
Chen Luoyang nodded slightly in return, "I have something to discuss with Heavenly Phoenix."
Nie Guanhe took a deep breath, "I have some matters to attend to in the palace. Excuse me."
After he left, a clear male voice sounded, "Golden Wutong, you got it. That day in the mausoleum, you helped to deal with the God of the Underworld, the Mysterious Corpse. Golden Wutong is a gift of thanks, but other than that, we have nothing else to talk about."
The one who spoke was the Phoenix under Ji Zhong's feet.
He didn't like Chen Luoyang and even had conflicts with him, so he spoke bluntly at this moment.
Chen Luoyang was surprised, "I want to talk about that God of the Underworld."
"In such a short time, he found another suitable body to be reborn?" The Heavenly Phoenix was suspicious.
"There are some rumors that concern me, so I came to visit today, hoping to know more about this God of the Underworld." Chen Luoyang stood with his hands behind his back.
The Heavenly Phoenix flapped its wings, "The Mysterious Corpse's body is indestructible. Even though his cultivation is low, his characteristics are obvious. He is the easiest to distinguish among the God of the Underworld. That is why he has always been killed at a low level, unable to achieve much. It was only when he was reborn because of Ju Mang that he became a great disaster. In the end, he was personally suppressed by Emperor Xi, unable to appear for many years."
"The God of the Underworld was reborn because of a human. At the moment of rebirth, were there any characteristics or abnormalities?" Chen Luoyang asked.
"Ju Mang fell gravely ill that day," the Heavenly Phoenix answered.
"The body may also carry memories. Will the God of the Underworld have the knowledge of his past life when he is reborn?" Chen Luoyang asked Slowly.
"There has never been a precedent, but he never had a body like Ju Mang when he was reborn. So it is difficult for me to say what will happen this time," the Heavenly Phoenix said solemnly.
