Chapter 1929

Merciless big feet stepped over the Guo family's three ancestors one after another; in the chaos, the three ancestors could not see at all who was stepping on them.

They only felt that each time, just as they mustered strength to lift their heads, the next moment they were instantly stepped on.

This sudden chaos made the Guo family's three ancestors utterly furious.

Damn it, what did I do to provoke anyone? For no reason I was pressed to the ground and rubbed.

At this moment, the Guo family's three ancestors, in their fury, had no regard for the rules of the Cooking King Immortal City.

Immediately, their aura shot up to the heavens, and terrifying Línglì fluctuations burst out wildly.

Moreover, this action was not only by the Guo family's three ancestors; other Immortal Realm cultivators affected also erupted in Línglì.

If they didn't fight back now, they would be killed; in a life-or-death situation, who cares about regulations?

Thus, the already chaotic situation became even more chaotic at this moment.

Various Línglì fluctuations and the power of laws instantly permeated the entire space.

Faced with this sudden change, the disciples and elders of the Cooking King Immortal City also shouted loudly.

"Stop."

"The city forbids the use of Línglì; have you all forgotten?"

"Quickly retract your Línglì."

Unfortunately, none of the Immortal Realm cultivators heeded; damn it, when you were dancing on our bodies just now, why didn't you say this?

Now we can't use Línglì? If we don't use Línglì, they'll be trampled to death.

What the hell? Only officials are allowed to set fires, but commoners aren't allowed to light lamps.

Faced with the shouting of the Cooking King Immortal City's elders, the many Immortal Realm cultivators who had been provoked didn't hear a word.

Saying now that Línglì cannot be used is too late.

The many Immortal Realm cultivators gritted their teeth, their eyes blazing with fury, their faces twisted to the extreme.

It's an unjust disaster, completely unjust; entering the city peacefully, for no reason we got rubbed, who wouldn't be angry?

Seeing the situation about to spiral out of control, the next second a terrifying pressure descended from the heavens.

Whether they were incoming Immortal Realm cultivators or the disciples and elders of the Cooking King Immortal City, all were enveloped by this pressure.

The immense pressure made everyone instantly like deflated balloons.

The Línglì that had been shooting up to the heavens, like a mouse seeing a cat, was forcibly pressed back down.

"This is..............."

"Huang Lao has made a move."

"Do not resist."

Many Immortal Realm cultivators were still confused, but the elders of the Cooking King Immortal City immediately guessed that Huang Lao had made a move.

In the entire Cooking King Immortal City, who besides Huang Lao possesses such might?

Even Deputy City Lord Bai Yuan and the like do not have such strength.

Huang Lao made a move, suppressing everyone; immediately, his voice came from the heavens above.

"Immortal Realm cultivators, retreat to the city gate."

As his words fell, that terrifying pressure forcibly pushed the many Immortal Realm cultivators out.

For a moment, only the elders and disciples of the Cooking King Immortal City remained in the arena.

With the Immortal Realm cultivators gone, the situation quickly returned to calm.

Under Huang Lao's suppression, those Immortal Realm cultivators who had been blazing with anger also quickly calmed down.

Only then did they recall that the Cooking King Immortal City harbored many hidden experts.

Since even such beings have personally appeared, causing further trouble would be impolite; being directly blasted to death is not impossible.

Nobody dares to gamble with their own life.

Thus, the many Immortal Realm cultivators retreated to the city gate as instructed.

Although they were bewildered, they could only patiently wait for now and understand later.

The two Guo family ancestors were also among the crowd; but not long after, Hei Lao appeared before the many Immortal Realm cultivators.

Seeing Hei Lao appear, some recognized his identity and originally intended to step forward for a brief greeting, to exchange pleasantries.

But Hei Lao gave them no chance; his gaze swept over the crowd and he spoke in a deep voice.

"Are any Guo family members present?"

Hei Lao came here actually at the request of Ye Zhangqing, specifically to fetch the Guo family's three ancestors.

Just now outside the Dong Fu, Ye Zhangqing had already sensed the aura of the Guo family's three ancestors, but at that time it was too chaotic; Ye Zhangqing hadn't yet had time to invite them in before the situation spiraled out of control.

Hearing Hei Lao's words, the Guo family's three ancestors in the crowd, though full of doubt, hurriedly stepped out of the crowd and said.

"I am the junior of the Guo family."

"Yes, the Young City Lord Ye Zhangqing has summoned you; follow me."

Although they were the Guo family's elders, in the face of Hei Lao they called themselves juniors.

Seeing the two Guo family ancestors walk out of the crowd, Hei Lao calmly nodded and then directly led them away.

The Guo family's three ancestors were still somewhat bewildered, but the second ancestor's eyes rolled about, clearly thinking something over.

Just now Hei Lao mentioned the Young City Lord; isn't the purpose of their visit this time to find the Xia Jie youth named Ye Zhangqing?

The third ancestor was worried that the youth might encounter danger in the Cooking King Immortal City, so as soon as the city opened, they hurriedly brought him along.

However, from the words of that elder just now, it seems the Ye surname youth has become the Young City Lord of the Cooking King Immortal City?

This seems somewhat absurd, after all, according to the third ancestor, that Ye surname youth has only been in the Cooking King Immortal City for a short year.

Moreover, his cultivation is only at the Emperor Sovereign Realm; no matter how you look at it, it's impossible for him to be the Young City Lord of the Cooking King Immortal City.

Looking through the history of the Cooking King Immortal City, the position of Young City Lord has never been held by someone of Emperor Sovereign Realm cultivation, has it?

To put it bluntly, they simply aren't qualified—far from it.

But if that's not the case, why would this senior appear before us again?

He had some doubts, but Guo Family Second Ancestor didn't show it, choosing instead to remain calm.

Anyway, once we see that Ye kid, we'll naturally know the answer; for now, let's follow this senior and see what's going on.

Under Hei Lao's guidance, the two proceeded smoothly into the Dong Fu.

Inside the Dong Fu, Guo Family Third Ancestor finally saw Ye Zhangqing.

At that moment, Ye Zhangqing and his companions had just finished eating, and Wu Zhong, being very observant, cleared the bowls, chopsticks, and table.

At that moment, they were drinking tea.

Seeing that Ye Zhangqing was unharmed, Guo Family Third Ancestor finally let out a sigh of relief, didn't dwell on it, and immediately spoke up.

"Ye kid, it's great that you're okay."

Guo Family Third Ancestor was simply concerned for Ye Zhangqing's safety, so he didn't notice anything else.

Hearing that, Ye Zhangqing also grinned; seeing Guo Family Third Ancestor, he felt happy as well.

But just as he was about to speak, before he could utter a word, he heard a mournful loud roar, and then a white-haired old man came sliding to his knees and appeared right before him.

Tears streaming down his face, he shouted.

"The Guo family came especially to welcome Young Master Ye home; it's wonderful that the young master is safe, but I, the old slave, was worried sick."

Huh???
