"How, how is this possible? You're Humpback Gong's Immortal Soul Beast? "
Murong Xun was stunned for a moment before he regained his senses and asked in disbelief.
"President, is what you said true? You're the descendant of the Sacred Beast Divine Dragon. How can you be a hunchback's Immortal Soul Beast?
"In my heart, you have always been an incomparably sacred existence, an existence that no one could compare to. But now, I am truly disappointed."
Vice President Tu Xi said in disbelief.
President Kui Ye's expression didn't change at all. He looked at Tu Xi and said, "I've disappointed you, but I don't regret it. If you had gone through what I went through, I believe you would've made the same choice as me."
When Tu Ming heard this, he fell silent. It was as if he still found it hard to accept this fact. After all, he had always been loyal to the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce, and he admired the president very much.
But now, all the beautiful things had been destroyed. Even if he was a Ninth Grade Peerless Immortal, his heart was in chaos.
"Hey, Murong Xun, now you should understand why I was able to enter the auction venue and why I wanted to interfere with the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce."
"Because the President of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce is my Immortal Soul Beast. He established the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce under my instructions. Therefore, I'm the real controller of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce."
"Now that you want to seize the position of the President of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce, you're destroying the power that I've built up. How can I stand by and do nothing?"
"Murong Xun, to tell you the truth, I've always known everything that you've done in secret. I didn't do anything to you because I didn't want to alert the enemy and I wanted to find evidence of your rebellion."
"Today, you finally couldn't hold back and made your move. Don't blame me for being vicious and merciless. Let me tell you another shocking piece of news. Your Murong family is currently under siege. I reckon that it won't be long before they're destroyed. So, you should obediently surrender."
Humpback Gong said. Not only did he reveal that he knew Murong Xun was plotting a rebellion, he also revealed an even more shocking news. He had already sent people to besiege the Murong Clan.
Humpback Gong, who had been stooped and looked like a piece of rotten wood, now seemed to release an earth-shattering aura that made him look extremely domineering.
"What? You … You're despicable! You dare to attack my Clan?"
Murong Xun's expression changed and he cursed.
"Despicable? Murong Xun, what you're saying is hilarious. In terms of despicable and shameless, how can I compare to you? "
"Alright, now that you know everything, you can die with a clear conscience."
After Humpback Gong finished speaking, he suddenly released a powerful aura. At the same time, Kui Ye, who was within the sealing barrier in the dragon-shaped mountain peak, also instantly released a terrifying aura and broke the seal around him.
Not only did Kui Ye regain his freedom, his aura was also very strong. He was full of energy and there was not a single trace of injury on him. This caused Murong Xun's expression to change as he immediately realised something.
"You … You actually tricked me and pretended to be heavily injured?"
Murong Xun said in shock.
"You don't have to worry about that. Now, give me your life."
Kui Ye's expression was gloomy. After he finished speaking, flames surged out of his body and turned into fire dragons that flew towards Murong Xun, wanting to burn him to ashes.
"Go!"
Seeing this, Murong Xun flew and dodged while giving orders to the elders of the Murong Clan and the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce. When they heard this, they did not hesitate to attack Kui Ye fiercely.
Murong Xun's body released a dazzling golden light that formed an indestructible and powerful barrier that blocked all the fire dragons released by Kui Ye.
Under the continuous attacks of the fire dragons, the golden barrier trembled continuously. However, Murong Xun continued to release his power to strengthen the barrier and stabilized the situation, quickly exhausting the power of the fire dragons.
After resolving the crisis, Murong Xun's heart still palpitated with fear. He looked at Kui Ye who was besieged by dozens of elders of the Murong Clan and the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce and revealed a deep fear.
"This fire dragon's combat strength is indeed terrifying. Its ability to control the power of the fire attribute has reached the acme of perfection. In addition, the power of the fire attribute just so happens to restrain my power of the metal attribute. I am no match for it at all."
"However, since I know that it is an Immortal Soulbeast, as long as I kill Humpback Gong, Kui Ye will die without a doubt. At that time, the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce will still be mine."
"Hmph, so what if you have already sensed it and made sufficient preparations? With my cultivation base of a Ninth Level Peerless Immortal, dealing with a Eighth Level Peerless Immortal hunchback will be a piece of cake."
"Oh right, those three little bastards and those few who dared to compete with me for the treasure can't be let off. They must all be killed."
Murong Xun knew that he was no match for Kui Ye, so he set his eyes on Humpback Gong. After all, the humpback Gong's cultivation base was only at the Eighth Level Peerless Immortal level. He was no match for him at all.
Just as he was about to attack, he suddenly looked in the direction of Luo Ping and the others, revealing a strong killing intent.
Therefore, he transmitted a message to a few experts, asking them to kill Luo Ping and the others. Then, he flew out of the formation boundary of the Dragon-shaped Mountain Peak and flew towards Humpback Gong.
Under the attack of the densely packed golden swords, Humpback Gong stood still in the void without the slightest trace of panic. Just as the golden swords were about to hit his body, an incomparably powerful force suddenly surged out from his back, stirring up layers of enormous spatial waves that swept towards the opposite side.
Under the impact of this space wave, the originally powerful golden sword that was like a hot knife through butter was blocked in an instant. The two sides engaged in an intense battle.
The spatial waves came one after another, as if they were endless, and those golden swords were also endless. The power of the attacks from both sides were equally matched, and it would take a long time to decide who was superior.
While they were locked in a stalemate, the cultivators within the Dragon-shaped Mountain Peak, who'd been restrained by the formation boundary, began to use their own secret arts to break free of the restraints.
Quite a few peerless immortals soon broke free of the restraints. Though they'd sustained significant injuries, it was better than sitting around and waiting for death to claim them.
Previously, there were too many experts from the Murong Clan and the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce. Even if these cultivators forcibly broke free, it would've been difficult for them to escape. Moreover, Murong Xun hadn't attacked them yet, so they hadn't tried to break free.
But now, the powerhouses of the Murong Clan and the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce were pinned down by President Kui Ye. These immortal cultivators still had a chance to escape if they forcibly broke through the shackles.
After breaking free, some peerless immortals started attacking the formation of the dragon-shaped peak. Only by breaking through the formation would they be able to leave the peak and head for the dragon gate. Then, they could work together to break through the dragon gate's defenses.
Due to the small number of peerless immortals attacking at first, it was difficult for them to cause substantial damage to the formation's boundary. However, it did affect the formation's binding power, making it easier for the other cultivators to break through.
Soon, all of the peerless immortals had broken free. Some of the more advanced golden immortals had also regained their freedom. Together, they attacked the boundary with all their might.
Naturally, Luo Ping and the other two were also constantly attacking the restrictive force. As the power of the barrier continued to weaken, they rejoiced in their hearts as they saw the hope of escaping.
However, they didn't have much time to rejoice when they saw the three peerless immortals who'd attacked President Kui Ye fly toward them, radiating intense killing intent.
"Oh no, it must be Murong Xun's orders. These peerless immortals want to kill us. This won't do, we have to break free as soon as possible."
Luo Ping was worried when he saw the three peerless immortals deliberately flying at a slower speed. At the same time, he racked his brains for a way to break free as quickly as possible.
Under these circumstances, he had no choice but to call upon the power of the Arcane Gate. Under his control, a tremendous surge of energy surged out from his body and instantly broke free of the binding force.
Wu Feiying appeared in front of Luo Ping and unleashed a powerful surge of void energy, enveloping the approaching peerless immortal.
The three peerless immortals had already decided on their targets. The one flying toward Luo Ping was the middle-aged woman from the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce who'd wanted to drive Luo Ping and the others out of the auction.
She was an elder of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce and a level five peerless immortal. Apart from Luo Ping and the others, she was also responsible for killing Tan Xian and another peerless immortal from North Wind Valley, who weren't far from Luo Ping.
Since the peerless immortal had broken free of the binding force and was attacking the formation, the middle-aged woman planned to kill Luo Ping, the others, and Tan Xian first before dealing with the peerless immortal.
What she hadn't expected was that Luo Ping had broken free of the binding force before she'd even gotten close to Luo Ping and the others. Moreover, a little girl had appeared out of nowhere and attacked her despite being only a level nine golden immortal.
"Hmph, that's an unusual strength. However, her cultivation is too weak. She won't be able to escape death in the end," the middle-aged woman said coldly.
She didn't think much of Wu Feiying's attack at all. However, she'd already guessed at Wu Feiying's identity.
"This little girl is clearly a weapon spirit. Who would've thought that this kid would have an immortal weapon of this level? Since that's the case, it's mine."
When the middle-aged woman released her Celestial Elemental Energy, she made up her mind to snatch Luo Ping's Profound Heaven Gate.
She wasn't the only one. The peerless immortals who'd been attacking the formation seemed to have realized something as well. They all looked in Luo Ping's direction and stopped attacking the formation at the same time. Instead, they shifted their focus to Luo Ping.
