Chapter 889: Major Events and Protectors

Hum!

Inside the relay station, the warning array Xu Jin had set up suddenly flared with starlight, emitting a humming sound.

Xu Jin, who had just finished disposing of all personal items belonging to the three True Persons he had killed, stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with sharp intensity!

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

Had he been exposed?

Had they come to his door?

His divine sense spread out like water at the same moment.

Standing outside his relay station courtyard was a Ninth Tribulation True Person.

It was this Ninth Tribulation True Person who had triggered Xu Jin's warning array.

The moment he discovered this Ninth Tribulation True Person, Xu Jin's first thought was that it was True Person Tianfa in disguise, or perhaps someone sent by him.

But a breath later, Xu Jin suddenly smiled.

He seemed to be overly nervous.

This was the relay station of the Star River War Zone Star Island, where Emperor Kongyuan was stationed.

Even if True Person Tianfa were given ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to come knocking so openly, unless he had gone mad.

Often, there are things that can be done but not spoken of.

He had just been too immersed in destroying all possible evidence, making him overly tense.

A light knocking sound continued from outside the relay station, and a voice was transmitted accurately into the courtyard: "Great Sage, I am Deng Kui. Seeing Guan Laohei asked me to come and check on you! If it's not convenient, I'll come back to see you in a few days."

Phew!

Xu Jin completely relaxed.

So it was a friend entrusted by Seeing Guan Laohei; that had given him quite a scare.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Jin welcomed the tall, imposing man into the courtyard.

"True Person Deng, the conditions at the relay station are simple, I only have some wine I brought with me, please!"

Since it was someone sent by Seeing Guan Laohei, Xu Jin didn't stand on ceremony; he brought out a jar of wine, filled their cups, and the two began to chat.

Very quickly, Xu Jin understood the situation.

At the same time, Xu Jin also received a starlight transmission from Seeing Guan Laohei.

This Deng Kui was considered a former subordinate of Seeing Guan Laohei, and the two shared a bond of life and death.

This time, when Xu Jin came to the War Zone Star Island, Old Guan was afraid Xu Jin would be unfamiliar with the place, so he entrusted Deng Kui to look after him.

He told Xu Jin that if there was anything he didn't understand or needed to get done, he could ask Deng Kui.

After all, Tongxuan Star Island was not only the location of the War Zone headquarters, but also the biggest money pit in the entire Tongxuan War Zone, especially for rare cultivation resources, which were all traded here.

However, most of those participating in the transactions are True Persons, or even Emperor-level powerhouses.

Of course, it is not as if there are no Tenth-Tier Star Lords.

Some Star-Driving Lords who have reached their limits will also come here to trade and purchase some treasures.

Seeing Guan Laohei has a certain understanding of Xu Jin, and Xu Jin's needs are definitely higher than those of ordinary Star-Driving Lords; thinking not to let Xu Jin suffer a loss, he entrusted this Deng Kui to come over and look after him.

Soon, the two also left their star-power imprints on each other's Tongxuan Tokens.

"Great Sage, if you need anything, just shout for me! I might not care about what others entrust me with, but for what Seeing Guan Laohei entrusts me with, I, Old Deng, would go through fire and water to complete it," Deng Kui said.

"You speak too solemnly! In a few days, after I finish my deep cultivation, I will definitely have matters where I need to trouble True Person Deng."

"We're being distant, aren't we? Just call me Old Kui."

"This..."

"Old Hei's friend is my friend!"

"Uh... Old Kui!"

"Hahahaha!"

Amidst loud laughter, Deng Kui stood up. "Great Sage, you still have to go contemplate the day after tomorrow. Such an opportunity is extremely rare; you must adjust your state, otherwise, the opportunity will be wasted."

"For us cultivators, the heavens and the earth are vast, but cultivation is paramount. I won't disturb you any further!"

"After you finish your contemplation, I will throw a banquet to welcome you!"

"Good, as soon as I finish my contemplation, I will contact you, Old Kui!"

Smiling, Xu Jin sent the Ninth Tribulation True Person, Old Kui, who had drunk several bowls of wine, out of the relay station door.

As Old Kui cupped his hands and was about to bid farewell, he suddenly looked toward the direction of the War Zone Star Island headquarters.

At the same moment, Xu Jin also sensed an abnormality and turned his head to look toward the headquarters.

He saw a powerhouse emitting a terrifying aura within the headquarters, surrounded by layers of radiance, rising into the sky at a steady pace.

Xu Jin had seen this person before.

Emperor Kongyuan.

The Grand Marshal of the Tongxuan War Zone, Emperor Kongyuan.

Following closely behind Emperor Kongyuan were twelve other Emperor-level powerhouses, as well as over a hundred True Person powerhouses, most of whom were high-tier True Persons, all following Emperor Kongyuan.

Xu Jin was stunned.

He had thought a major war had broken out, but looking at the slow pace of these Emperors and True Persons, it didn't look like a major war had occurred.

Deng Kui, however, narrowed his eyes.

"This is..."

"Old Kui, what major event has happened?" Xu Jin asked curiously.

Hearing this, Old Kui shook his head. "I don't know either! With so many people going out, it shouldn't be a top-secret major event; we'll know in a moment!"

"Looking at the Emperor's demeanor, it's definitely not a war!"

"You prepare for your cultivation with peace of mind!"

"I will notify you if there is any situation!"

After speaking, Old Kui instantly turned into a stream of light and went far away.

Xu Jin, however, watched Emperor Kongyuan lead those hundred-plus top-tier high-ranking officials away quickly, disappearing into the horizon, feeling extremely stunned.

What major event could have happened?

"If the sky falls, there are tall people like the Emperors to hold it up! I'll just cultivate for now!"

The next instant, Xu Jin returned to his relay station and raised the warning array again.

With a thought, he then continued to inventory the Sumeru spaces of the three True Person powerhouses.

After finishing the inventory one by one, Xu Jin understood.

He could only say that the Fourth Tribulation True Person Hu Yiwei was a pauper.

The best things found on him were merely two pieces of innate spiritual material; there wasn't even a single piece of Star Ruins Origin Sand, though there were a dozen drops of Universal Star Dew.

He was truly the fighter jet among paupers, poorer than many Star Lords.

The most valuable thing was his True Person blood crystal.

However, the harvest from the Sumeru spaces of the Eighth Tribulation True Person Zou Shan and the Seventh Tribulation True Person Wu Feng was quite good.

Zou Shan had one piece of innate treasure material, but Wu Feng had four pieces of innate treasure material.

There were over twenty pieces of innate spiritual material.

True Persons who specialize in space are truly wealthy. ===== CHAPTER 890 =====
