Shen Changge had just left the Holy City.
The next moment, the entire Holy City was sealed off. One could only enter, and not leave. There were even Creator-level experts personally guarding the city gates.
At the same time, a piece of news spread from the Holy Palace. It shook the entire Holy City, and caused countless experts to turn pale with shock.
The Feng Heavenly Clan's honored guest.
The Holy Dynasty's guest elder, Shen Changge.
Due to her outstanding talent in the battle of the Sacred Institute, she was thought highly of by the Holy King. Because of that, the Holy King personally dispatched experts to the Feng Heavenly Clan to invite Shen Changge to the Holy Palace to meet the Holy King.
Originally, all of the powers and experts in the Holy City had thought that Shen Changge's exceptional talent had obtained the Holy King's appreciation, and that Shen Changge would obtain the Holy King's appreciation and be nurtured by the Holy Dynasty. In time to come, she would become a grand character with great authority in the Holy Dynasty.
At that time, the Feng Heavenly Clan was filled with a joyous atmosphere.
The people from the Feng Heavenly Clan were all feeling happy for Shen Changge. After all, Shen Changge had walked out from their Feng Heavenly Clan and entered the sights of the Holy King.
Different from the Feng Heavenly Clan's excitement, the people from the Gu Heavenly Clan entered an oppressive and depressed atmosphere after hearing the news.
They knew that if Shen Changge was truly able to obtain the Holy King's appreciation, she would be able to rise rapidly in the Holy Dynasty, and obtain overwhelming authority.
If their Gu Heavenly Clan wanted to touch Shen Changge again, it would likely not be that easy.
Not to mention the Wind King, likely even the Holy King would not agree to it.
However, the heavens were unpredictable, and the affairs of the world were unpredictable.
No one would've imagined that the situation would be reversed so quickly. This came as a great shock to the experts in the Holy City.
Shen Changge had actually stolen a Divine Technique from the Holy Palace, and was discovered by the Holy King, causing him to be furious.
In the end, the Holy King issued a kill order.
Then, experts from the Holy Palace arrived at the Holy City and announced the Holy King's decree: all experts in the Holy Dynasty were allowed to pursue and kill Shen Changge. Those who killed Shen Changge would be rewarded handsomely by the Holy King.
This piece of news instantly swept through the entire Holy City like a storm. All the forces and experts in Holy City received the news.
Not only that, after hearing the news, the Gu Heavenly Clan was the most active. The Gu Heavenly Clan's Heavenly King personally issued a Heavenly King's order for the Gu Heavenly Clan's elder-level experts to move out and proceed to the Holy City's gates to capture Shen Changge.
Furthermore, the Gu Heavenly Clan even released a message.
It was said that the successor to the Gu Heavenly Clan's Young Master, Gu Linfeng, had gone to the Eastern Heavenly Realm to spread the news of the Sage Monarch's plan to take over the Holy God Society.
At that time, Shen Changge was provoking the supreme dignity of the Saint King. It was not difficult to see that Shen Changge was cruel, bloodthirsty, and had no regard for the law.
However, someone had received benefits from Shen Changge, and started to plot against Shen Changge, allowing Shen Changge to get away scot-free and even obtain the status of a guest elder of the Holy Dynasty. This caused the Gu Heavenly Clan's young master's successor to die miserably in a foreign land without being able to avenge his death.
Everyone in the Holy City was well aware of the deeper meaning behind these words.
The Gu Heavenly Clan was pointing their spearhead at the Feng Heavenly Clan.
After all, the Gu Heavenly Clan and the Feng Heavenly Clan were already at odds with one another. After what happened with Shen Changge, the two Heavenly Clans became like fire and water. This was no secret in the Holy City.
And now, the honored guest invited by the Feng Heavenly Clan had actually stolen the Sacred Palace's Divine Technique and fled. This had enraged the Saint King.
How could the Gu Heavenly Clan possibly miss out on such a rare opportunity?
However, it remained that this was a grudge between the two Heavenly Clans. How could ordinary powers possibly dare to participate?
Thus, the majority of the powers knew what was going on. Yet, they remained indifferent, and did not plan to participate.
Instead, it was the other Heavenly Clans, especially the Chu Heavenly Clan, the Ye Heavenly Clan, the Yun Heavenly Clan and the Xiao Heavenly Clan, that all had their Heavenly Clans' Heavenly Clans.
The successors of those four Heavenly Clans had all been forcibly suppressed by Shen Changge in the Sacred Academy, sweeping away the dignity of their Heavenly Clans.
Because of that, those four Heavenly Clans had spoken to the Gu Heavenly Clan with the intention of joining hands with the Gu Heavenly Clan's Five Great Heavenly Clans. This brought enormous pressure to the Feng Heavenly Clan.
… … …
Feng Heavenly Clan. Inside the Heavenly King's Mansion.
Inside the Heavenly King's Palace.
Inside the palace, the Wind King was seated on the Heavenly King's throne. He had a robust build, and wore a crown on his head. He wore a golden python gown. As he moved, he emitted boundless oppressive might, causing the atmosphere in the palace to be extremely oppressive and heavy.
Below the palace stood several tens of figures on both sides. They were all the Feng Heavenly Clan's upper echelons.
The majority of those people were experts from the Feng Heavenly Clan's Elder Pavilion. They were all peak existences of the Creation realm.
Feng Lingtian was also among them.
"Shen Changge stole a Divine Technique and fled the Holy City. What do you all think of this matter?"
The Wind King's imposing and overbearing voice sounded in the palace. He swept his deep gaze across the crowd below. However, his expression was extremely calm. No one was able to tell what he was thinking.
After his words left his mouth, there was no response from the palace. The atmosphere was still oppressive and heavy. It was as if a divine mountain was pressing down on the crowd's heads. It was so oppressive that they nearly suffocated.
At that moment, Feng Lingtian walked out. After taking two steps forward, he stopped. He looked up, clasped his fist and bowed. With a deep voice, he said, "Reporting to the Heavenly King, there is definitely something fishy about this matter."
"Fishy?" Hearing those words, a smile appeared on the Wind King's imposing face. He looked at Feng Lingtian with interest and said with a smile, "How is it fishy? Go ahead and tell me. "
"Shen Changge, although he came from the Abandoned Land, he ultimately came to the Black Ruins World and became the tenth Sacred God of the Eastern Heavens' Sacred God Assembly. With his talent and temperament, how could he do such a foolish thing? To steal a Divine Technique in the Holy Palace, under the eyes of a Sacred King, isn't he courting death? " Feng Lingtian's gaze was solemn. He simply did not believe that news. He sneered and said, "Moreover, the Holy Palace is a supreme place in the Holy City. Experts are as numerous as the clouds. There are even Sacred Kings personally overseeing the Holy Palace. How could Shen Changge have such great ability? To be able to steal a Divine Technique right under the eyes of a Sacred King? "
After Feng Lingtian said those words, the palace hall became quiet. No one said anything.
The people present were all core upper echelon experts of the Feng Heavenly Clan. Which one of them was a simple character?
How could they not see through the strangeness of this matter?
Likely, everyone in the Holy City was able to see through the strangeness of this matter. It was very likely that Shen Changge did not steal a Divine Technique.
However, who dared to say anything?
The Sacred King was the true ruler of the Holy City. The Sacred King's might was supreme. Who dared to refute him? Who dared to doubt him?
Who dared to provoke him?
If the Sacred King said that he had stolen a Divine Technique, then Shen Changge had stolen a Divine Technique. No one dared to doubt him.
The will of the Sacred King was the will of the heavens.
If the Sacred King wanted Shen Changge to die, then Shen Changge must die.
Right now, their Feng Heavenly Clan was facing pressure from the other Five Great Heavenly Clans. Thus, they were discussing this matter so that they could express their stance.
Not only were they showing it to the experts of the Holy City, they were showing it to the Five Great Heavenly Clans and the Sacred King.
They were letting the Sacred King see their Feng Heavenly Clan's stance.
The Feng Heavenly Clan was extremely famous in the Holy Dynasty. They were extremely glorious and illustrious. They were one of the ten most powerful clans in the Holy Dynasty.
However, their Feng Heavenly Clan was, in the end, ruled by the Sacred King. They had to follow his orders.
Thus, they needed to express their stance to the Sacred King.
"This matter shall end here." Seated on the Heavenly King's Throne, the Wind King swept his gaze across the crowd below with a dignified expression. He said, "I believe everyone knows the profound meaning contained in this matter. Since that's the case, spread the news that our Feng Heavenly Clan will definitely hunt down Shen Changge and will not be lenient."
"Heavenly King …" Feng Lingtian suddenly raised his eyes. He looked to the Wind King, who was seated on the throne, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
He did not dare to believe it.
How could his father become like this? Could it be that he was merely afraid of the Sacred King's might?
Because of that, he decided to willfully slaughter the innocent and disregard human lives?
Was this still the hero, his idol, that he had held in his heart since his childhood?
Inside the palace hall, the elders of the Feng Heavenly Clan all raised their eyes in astonishment upon hearing those words. They looked to the Wind King.
However, in the end, they were not Feng Lingtian. Their temperaments were much more mature than Feng Lingtian's. From the Wind King's gaze, they were able to see another layer of meaning.
Soon after, someone looked to Feng Lingtian and said, "Tian 'er, although you are the Heavenly King's son and one of our clan's future successors, you cannot question the Heavenly King's decision. We only need to follow the Heavenly King's orders."
"But …" Feng Lingtian's expression was unsightly. He wanted to say something, but before he could continue, he was forcibly dragged out of the Heavenly King's Palace by two elders.
Then, the upper echelons of the Feng Heavenly Clan all left the Heavenly King's Palace.
Only the Wind King remained. He sat on the throne by himself. His expression was deep and serene as he looked in the direction of Dongfang Tian. He softly muttered, "Holy King, you've returned?"
At that moment, his state of mind was extremely complicated. His state of mind was difficult to understand. Deep in his heart, there was both anticipation and fear.
He had a faint feeling that the Holy Master of the Holy God Assembly might be the previous Holy King.
Holy God Assembly!
Holy Master!
If it wasn't the previous Holy King, who would have the courage to create a power called the Holy God Assembly? Who would dare to call themselves the Holy Master?
Not only was this a provocation to the Holy Dynasty's authority, it was also a provocation to the Holy King's authority. Likely, even Great Creation experts would not have such courage.
Only the previous Holy King would dare to act in such an unbridled manner.
Furthermore, from the way the Holy Master of the Holy God Assembly acted, he could faintly see the shadow of the previous Holy King.
Thus, he was guessing whether or not the Holy Master of the Holy God Assembly might be the previous Holy King.
If he wasn't, it would prove that his guess was wrong.
If he was, then Shen Changge might be the successor chosen by the previous Holy King.
Regardless of whether or not he was, he would do his best to protect Shen Changge. After all, it was he who invited Shen Changge to the Holy Dynasty as a guest. It was only because of that enormous disaster.
Of course, on the surface, he would still obey the Holy King's order and dispatch experts to capture Shen Changge.
"It seems that I will have to find time to make a trip to the Eastern Heavens." The Wind King's eyes were deep and flickering with a heart-palpitating radiance. He still felt guilty toward the previous Holy King.
Back then, he was deceived by Ye Chengfeng and did not know the truth. He thought that the Holy King had encountered a crisis that he could not resolve himself.
That was why he followed Ye Chengfeng to the Holy Palace. Who knew that the Holy King would be schemed against by Ye Chengfeng? Naturally, he was viewed by the previous Holy King as a traitor who had followed Ye Chengfeng in his rebellion.
That misunderstanding had lasted for two hundred years.
In the end, he had no choice but to compromise under the threat of Ye Chengfeng and the other Heavenly Kings. For the lives of the Feng Heavenly Clansmen, he dragged out an ignoble existence. Even now, he was still living in guilt and self-blame.
Those secrets were not known by outsiders.
Only the Ten Heavenly Kings and the current Holy King, Ye Chengfeng, knew. Because of that, the current Holy King did not trust him much.
The Holy Dynasty was, after all, the foundation of the Luo Family. Ever since the first Holy King, the Luo Family had been the supreme Holy Clan of the Holy Dynasty. The power they had passed down was too powerful and too deep.
Even though Ye Chengfeng had obtained the support of the Heavenly Kings, reversed black and white, and changed fate to become the Holy King, he still could not be considered safe. The power passed down by the Luo Family still posed an enormous threat to him.
Even though two hundred years had passed, Ye Chengfeng still had not completely digested those powers.
Otherwise, Ye Chengfeng would have already killed him.
… … …
The Holy Dynasty ruled the depths of the Black Ruins World. It was a vast and boundless territory. It was the absolute ruling power in that region. It was supreme.
The Holy Dynasty's territory was extremely vast. It was so vast that it seemed to have no end. It was divided into a hundred and eight regions. Every region had a Domain Master's Manor that managed a region for the Holy Dynasty. Their status was extremely high, and their power was also extremely terrifying.
The Southern Flower Region was located to the south of the Holy City. It belonged to the Holy Dynasty's southern territory. It was an extremely powerful region with as many experts as the clouds. It was flourishing and flourishing.
At this moment, within the Southern Flower Region.
Qingfeng City was a main city within the Southern Flower Region. It was located in the eastern part of the Southern Flower Region. Because it was one of the ten main cities within the Southern Flower Region, there were still many experts in the city. However, the strongest was only in the early-stage of the Sun Realm.
At this moment, in the Clearwind City, in a private room on the third floor of an inn called the Natural Residence, Shen Changge sat cross-legged on the bed. His eyes were closed tightly as he recuperated from his injuries. Chaotic Qi lingered around his body, emitting a divine brilliance.
After a long time, Shen Changge opened his eyes. A sharp light shot out from his eyes. It was as dazzling as a celestial sword. It was breathtaking.
Then, he withdrew his consciousness and inspected the injuries in his body. He couldn't help but say softly, "My injuries have finally healed. As expected of a powerhouse of the undefeatable realm of creation. Just a wave of his hand is so terrifying."
That day, in the Holy Palace, although he was prepared to die, when the Holy King attacked, he still used the Heavenly Mandate Divine Technique and raised his defense to the highest level.
However, he was still severely injured by the Holy King and almost lost his combat ability.
However, he did not know that it was because his physical body was extremely strong that he could survive. If it were any other expert in the Creator Realm, their meridians would have been broken, and their internal organs would have been shattered. They would have died.
It had been three days since he escaped from the Holy City. This journey of escape was too miserable and difficult. He did not have time to heal his injuries, which made his injuries even worse.
On the first day, he escaped from the Holy City and headed east. He pretended that he was returning to Dongfang Heaven to confuse the experts of the Holy Dynasty who were chasing him.
Then, on the second day, he turned south from east. Not only did he not return to Dongfang Heaven, but he came to the southern territory of the Holy Dynasty, the Southern Flower Region.
The Holy Dynasty ruled this world. If he kept going east, he would be caught up by the experts of the Holy Dynasty soon. By then, he would be in a tough battle, and the situation would be extremely unfavorable for him.
So, he went directly to the south of the Holy Dynasty.
