Chapter 504: Cheng Mou Dares Not Be the First in the World

~15 min read 2,930 words

Outside the practice arena, Sixth-Tier Ninth-Layer peak Dong Zhao fought with Eighth-Tier late-stage Great Elder Wang Kan to stop him.

Because it was to save someone, Wang Kan didn't want to delay time, so he didn't use his full strength, and in front of the Sanyuan Hall jade steps, the Great Hong Emperor was on the side, and it was full of princes and nobles, so Wang Kan couldn't use his full strength either.

For a time, Wang Kan was actually blocked by the Sixth-Tier Ninth-Layer Dong Zhao.

But even so, the majestic star power swayed open, affecting all directions, shattering countless cups, bowls, and plates, scaring the princes and nobles into chaos.

A few with low cultivation were seriously injured on the spot.

The Great Hong Emperor looked at the chaotic scene, his face iron-blue.

Especially since the envoys from all sides stationed in the Great Hong capital were watching this scene from afar, making the Great Hong Emperor even more headache-prone.

Fortunately, as the Inner Court Grand Manager Wei Zhong scooped Sun Fujia's broken physical body and Yuan Spirit out of the practice arena, Great Elder Wang Kan had no intention to fight anymore, directly bypassed Dong Zhao who was blocking him, and rushed up.

Dong Zhao didn't entangle anymore either.

The reason he made a move just now was mainly because he was worried that Wang Kan would rush into the practice arena to save someone, and while at it, give Ning Yuchan a shameless blow, that would be a big loss.

"Fujia!"

Looking at Sun Fujia's miserable state, Great Elder Wang Kan exclaimed, stared fiercely at Ning Yuchan in the center of the practice arena, and then took Sun Fujia's physical body, which only had the head and shoulders intact, from Wei Zhong's hands, along with the minced meat Wei Zhong had swept up, and Sun Fujia's incomparably terrified Yuan Spirit, rolled his sleeves, and turned into a bolt of star light, rushing straight to the Star-Plucking Tower main tower in Changle City, Great Hong.

He had to take Sun Fujia back to the Tianyang Star Palace.

He must try every possible way to save Sun Fujia.

If Zhang Lin were not dead, it would be fine.

Now that Zhang Lin is dead, Sun Fujia is the true disciple most valued by Tianyang Xingjun, and he was the one Wang Kan brought out; if he dies here, the trouble will be big.

Even if Tianyang Xingjun doesn't say anything on the surface, in his heart, he will definitely give Wang Kan a heavy mark.

Especially at this critical moment of searching for the Blood God Sect high-level hidden inside.

Therefore, must save!

Save with all strength!

Even if he can't be saved, he must be saved!

Even if Sun Fujia is to die, he must die in Tianyang Xingjun's arms.

"Quiet!"

Great Elder Wang Kan disappeared, and Inner Court Grand Manager Wei Zhong shouted, making the entire practice arena quiet.

Xu Jin transmitted his voice to Ning Yuchan, and while letting Ning Yuchan return, he turned around, cupped his hands, and said in a deep voice, "Emperor, this matter must be explained to us by the Emperor!

The life-and-death arena battle was Sun Fujia's own wish.

You were on the side, Emperor, and the life-and-death arena was promised by the Emperor himself, and the envoys from all sides personally witnessed this matter, why did Great Elder Wang destroy the life-and-death arena?"

The Great Hong Emperor was questioned by Xu Jin, and for a time, he was somewhat speechless.

This matter, Great Hong really lost face.

Lost face.

But there was no way, Sun Fujia's identity was too special.

Coincidentally, Zhang Lin died again.

He also understood Great Elder Wang Kan's approach.

But putting it on the official side, it was not easy to say.

Of course, the Great Hong Emperor couldn't say it directly like this, so he could only deal with it first, "Official Xu, rest assured, after Great Elder Wang Kan returns, I will personally ask, and then give you an explanation."

This was the delay tactic.

As long as this public scene was passed, the remaining things would be easy to talk about.

"Your Majesty, since this is the case, then this subject will take people back to the Sifang Pavilion and respectfully wait for the Emperor's decree."

This was actually a strategy Xu Jin had long thought of.

Must retreat.

Anyway, the main tasks of the mission were all completed, and the rest were all scene work.

Before the practice combat today, Xu Jin had considered various situations.

It would be fine if Ning Yuchan lost, but if Ning Yuchan won against Sun Fujia or heavily injured Sun Fujia, the consequences would be different.

Once the people of the Tianyang Star Palace reacted, it would be dangerous.

Who is Sun Fujia?

The peerless genius of the Tianyang Star Palace.

In terms of cultivation potential, he was even stronger than Zhang Lin.

Not only cultivation talent, but his own strength was also top-notch.

Tianyang Xingjun or others in the Tianyang Star Palace all claimed Sun Fujia to be the number one Sixth-Tier in the present world.

But this number one Sixth-Tier person in the present world was shattered by Ning Yuchan.

Then what would Ning Yuchan's identity be?

That is to say, Ning Yuchan had already replaced Sun Fujia as the number one Sixth-Tier in the present world.

And in Tianyang Xingjun's expectations, Sun Fujia was the next generation power-holder of the Tianyang Star Palace.

Importance, at least in terms of strength, was equivalent to Xu Jin to Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao.

Now, it was destroyed by the unknown Ning Yuchan.

Not to mention hatred.

Just say such a Ning Yuchan, if she grows up, will the Tianyang Star Palace be afraid?

According to Ning Yuchan's performance in this battle today, as long as her cultivation base reaches the Sixth-Tier Ninth-Layer peak, she absolutely possesses quasi-Eighth-Tier combat power, because Sun Fujia's combat power was already equivalent to Seventh-Tier Ninth-Layer peak combat power.

If Ning Yuchan breaks through to the Seventh Tier, she will definitely be Eighth-Tier combat power, and a very strong one at that.

In the future, if Ning Yuchan breaks through to the Eighth Tier, she will be an existence that suppresses the present world.

Such a genius, in the future, will definitely be a great threat to the Tianyang Star Palace.

Moreover, there is an even stronger Xu Jin.

And an Ying Ge.

This is simply Great Chen's future super luxurious genius team.

If Tianyang Xingjun reacts and is ruthless, killing them all in Great Hong, it would be equivalent to breaking the backbone of Great Chen's future.

Face?

In the face of true victory or defeat, face counts for nothing!

Therefore, Xu Jin concluded that once Ning Yuchan defeated Sun Fujia, the Tianyang Star Palace would very likely do extreme things.

This time, wanting to return to the Sifang Pavilion, the idea was very simple, which was to retreat.

Including the methods of retreat, several had already been prepared.

One was to leave directly through the Zhai Xing Lou teleportation.

Two was to use the directional space movement emblem that had long been prepared to escape quickly.

So this time, he directly resigned.

The Great Hong Emperor was what kind of person, in an instant he realized something, and also understood what Xu Jin wanted to do!

In his heart, there was also a moment of impulse.

As long as he dragged it out for a bit of time, and arranged for someone to burn a fire for Tianyang Xingjun, he absolutely believed that Tianyang Xingjun would definitely order the annihilation of the Great Chen mission regardless of everything.

Compared to losing some face, breaking Great Chen's backbone was even more important!

However, this was before his identity was discovered.

Now, the key to his identity was held in the hands of Xu Jin and Cheng Yuexiao, if Xu Jin died here, then Cheng Yuexiao would definitely expose everything about him regardless of everything.

At that time, his deadline would also be up.

It was a pity that he had only just begun to prepare for that matter, and it was of great importance, not something that could be completed overnight.

For the sake of Great Hong, destroying Great Chen's future genius team, he was willing.

But taking himself along, this was not good.

Also, just as the Great Hong Emperor was hesitating, University Head Dong Zhao, who had just blocked Wang Kan, suddenly stepped forward and said, "Emperor, before coming, our Grand Master specially entrusted me to bring a letter to the Emperor, it just so happens that the timing is right, please read it, Emperor."

The Great Hong Emperor's heart moved, and he said, "Bring it over."

Dong Zhao cupped his hands, and a jade tablet flew out flatly, flying towards the Great Hong Emperor.

The Great Hong Emperor took it, sank his mind into it, and saw it at a glance. His expression and complexion were normal, but deep in his heart, he was incomparably helpless.

Sure enough, as Xu Jin said, Cheng Yuexiao regarded Xu Jin as a successor.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have given him such a letter.

And today, at this moment, it was the greatest possibility for their Great Hong to kill this Xu Jin and Ning Yuchan.

After today, if these two were allowed to grow for a period of time, wanting to kill them would be extremely difficult!

He was extremely eager to kill.

However, Cheng Yuexiao's letter made him not dare to kill.

He even only wanted to send the Great Chen mission away in the shortest possible time after reading Cheng Yuexiao's letter.

To avoid disaster.

In the letter Great Chen Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao sent him, only three sentences were written.

【The Emperor is the Emperor of Great Hong, but the Emperor of Great Hong is not necessarily the Emperor.】

【Even if the two countries are at war, envoys are not to be killed, Eighth-Tier experts in the world are not allowed to make a move against the descendants of the Emperor, Cheng Mou dares not be the first in the world.

May I ask if the Emperor's descendants can obtain the personal protection of Tianyang Xingjun in the future?】

【Cheng Mou has no extravagant hopes, only hoping that Xu Jin returns to the country safely.】

In the jade tablet, the three simple sentences, the first two, each pointed directly at the Great Hong Emperor's vital point.

The meaning implied in the first sentence was very direct, which was that if some things were really exposed, then Great Hong would probably have to change its emperor.

For Tianyang Xingjun, in fact, who is the emperor of Great Hong is not important, what is important is whether this emperor is obedient, whether he is safe.

This sentence pointed directly at the Great Hong Emperor's life and death.

The second sentence first mentioned two commonly used unwritten rules in the present world.

But combined with the third sentence, it was a very kind reminder.

If Xu Jin could not return to the country safely, then he, Cheng Yuexiao, would personally make a move to assassinate the Great Hong imperial bloodline.

Would Tianyang Xingjun provide personal protection?

Absolutely impossible!

On this point, the Great Hong Emperor was incomparably clear.

If the Great Hong imperial family were really wiped out, then Tianyang Xingjun could just pull over anyone surnamed Yang and say this is the imperial bloodline, and it could be inherited as emperor; this matter was also feasible.

Therefore, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's letter successfully hit the Great Hong Emperor's vital point!

To be more concise, you can cooperate with the Tianyang Star Palace to kill Xu Jin and his party.

But if Xu Jin dies, then you, the Great Hong Emperor, and the bloodline of the Great Hong imperial family, will all have to be buried with Xu Jin!

Threat!

This is an absolute threat!

However, the Great Hong Emperor still had to accept it!

He could only sigh helplessly.

No way, this is the end of being controlled by others.

He was now simply a punching bag.

Inside, controlled by Tianyang Xingjun, outside, threatened by the Great Chen Grand Master.

At this moment, the Great Hong Emperor firmed up his idea.

That plan must be executed faster.

Only when that plan is executed successfully can he get rid of this internal and external punching bag identity.

"University Head Dong, rest assured, I will reply to Grand Master Cheng."

After speaking, the Great Hong Emperor looked at the mess in all directions, his expression sank, and he suddenly said, "Forget it, I originally wanted to hold a banquet to entertain the Great Chen mission, but today, I have lost the mood.

It just so happens that your Grand Master is urgently summoning you.

Then you should go back."

After speaking, the Great Hong Emperor gave instructions, "Wei Zhong, send the Great Chen mission's return customs clearance token to the Sifang Pavilion."

"Yes."

While Wei Zhong accepted the order, he respectfully sent the Great Hong Emperor away.

Almost as soon as the Great Hong Emperor left, Dong Zhao had already finished communicating with Xu Jin via Divine Soul transmission, and the relevant actions had reached a consensus.

It was just that Xu Jin didn't expect that the Grand Master still had this arrangement.

The two of them, in the first instance, led Ning Yuchan, Ying Ge, and other accompanying members of the mission to dash quickly to the Sifang Pavilion.

The Sifang Pavilion was not far from the palace.

Under the dash, they arrived in a few dozen breaths.

Inside the Sifang Pavilion, the members of the Great Chen mission had long received the order, packed their luggage, and were prepared to leave.

Now, they were just waiting for the return customs clearance token.

Xu Jin just gave an instruction, and saw a star light descending from the sky, but it was an Eighth-Tier aura.

Dong Zhao and Xu Jin were vigilant at the same time, but it was Great Hong's Inner Court Grand Manager Wei Zhong who rushed over.

"Official Xu, this is the customs clearance token sent by the Emperor.

Holding this token, you can pass through all major checkpoints without obstruction.

Of course, if you find it troublesome, holding this passage token, you can also directly teleport away from our Great Hong Star-Plucking Tower main tower."

After speaking, Wei Zhong glanced at the direction of the Star-Plucking Tower main tower, and said softly, "However, if you want to teleport away, you have to be fast.

If it's late, I estimate there will be many people there, I'm afraid it will be delayed."

Wei Zhong was speaking with hidden meaning, and Xu Jin had already heard it.

"In that case, thank you Grand Manager."

"No thanks, the Emperor's heart has been delivered, this old servant will take his leave."

The next instant, the moment Wei Zhong rose into the air to leave, Xu Jin, Dong Zhao, Ning Yuchan, Ying Ge, including the etiquette officer and Army Marquis Lei Qi, quickly swept towards the Great Hong Star-Plucking main tower, while other ordinary mission guards, led by a Fifth-Tier Commander, took the customs clearance token and left the city.

These ordinary soldiers would leave by Star Boat.

If a thousand people were all to teleport, it wouldn't be finished in an hour or two.

Ten breaths later, Xu Jin and his party arrived at the Great Hong Star-Plucking main tower, and after showing the passage token sent by Wei Zhong, they were successfully released by the duty officer of the Great Hong Star-Plucking main tower.

Ning Yuchan teleported away first, followed by Dong Zhao and Ying Ge.

Xu Jin, however, was the last one to step in.

Because Xu Jin himself was the most confident in facing Eighth-Tier pursuit and escaping alive.

It was not difficult either.

Directly using the space directional movement Star Art, after moving five hundred miles away from the Great Hong capital, he could instantly open the Seven-Kill Star Domain's Star Domain Gate, enter, and it would be safe.

Even if Tianyang Xingjun really caught up, Xu Jin estimated that his Seven-Kill Ironwood Sword could also block him for a while, striving for escape time.

Therefore, Xu Jin was the last one to teleport away.

However, until Xu Jin left, the Tianyang Star Palace side still had no movement.

Of course, this had a great relationship with Great Chen's rapid reaction and the Great Hong Emperor's secret cooperation.

Otherwise, Xu Jin and his party would not have been able to leave the Great Hong capital within a hundred breaths!

At the same time, Tianyang Xingjun, who was at the critical moment of comprehending the Divine Dao True Intent, was annoyed by three consecutive ten-thousand-fire-urgent star light transmissions.

Was his breakthrough to the Ninth Tier not important?

Especially recently, inside the Tianyang Star Palace, all matters, big and small, had to be reported to him, and many small matters had to be requested to him in the form of ten-thousand-fire-urgent transmissions, making him furious.

So he didn't look at the first one.

Unexpectedly, three came in a row.

And they were all from Great Elder Wang Kan.

His heart moved, and Tianyang Xingjun could only helplessly interrupt his cultivation and sink his mind into it.

The next instant, Tianyang Xingjun's face changed greatly, and he disappeared from the cultivation hall instantly!
