Chapter 168

The Elders or Sect Masters of the major sects, upon hearing this, were all inwardly shocked. Is Xu Chen even human?

In merely one and a half months, he actually achieved such cultivation results? To describe such a thing as a monster feels like looking down on Xu Chen...

Someone like Xu Chen is probably a peerless prodigy rarely seen in ten thousand years. Everyone also heard that Feng Qianling, the Saint Son of Fengsha Tower, upon witnessing Xu Chen's strength, was so terrified he wet himself right there on the spot. This made Feng Qianling, who was already severely injured, even worse off, losing all face. At that moment, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and then fainted dead away.

As for Qin Xiran, the Saintess of the newly emerged Ci Hang Jing Zhai, she heard she might cause trouble recently, and then left with Xu Chen. In an instant, everyone felt a wave of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Is this the bandit Xu?

Such peerless beauties naturally gravitate towards the bandit Xu. Damn it! As they listened, they felt numb all over.

Wan Gu Sect, Headquarters.

At this moment, after the spies of the Wan Gu Sect heard the news, they went to Cold Ice and Flame Valley and Xingyun Forest.

The spy saw devastation everywhere, with not a single survivor.

Their hearts were instantly filled with shock, and they reported the news back to headquarters. Lu Jiang, an Elder of the Intelligence Hall within the Wan Gu Sect, upon hearing this, his face immediately turned extremely ugly. He spoke in slight anger: "Didn't I say not to provoke Xu Chen, but to avoid him as much as possible?"

The spy awkwardly said: "Elder Shang just died, and Xu Chen arrived at Cold Ice and Flame Valley immediately. Our, our information didn't have time to be transmitted..."

Lu Jiang took a deep breath: "What about now?"

The spy said: "It has now been transmitted to all halls, guaranteeing no similar errors will occur again."

Lu Jiang took a deep breath: "All hall bases must contract, and then focus all efforts on researching the Complete Puppet. Before the Complete Puppet is produced, no one is allowed to act rashly. Remember, this is a death order."

Those spies all clasped their hands and nodded: "Yes!"

Lu Jiang sighed: "What a pity. If Xu Chen had gone to Cold Ice and Flame Valley a bit later, the Ren Gu, Yao Gu, and Tian Gu would not have died." These three combat forces of the Wan Gu Sect were gone just like that. The spy continued: "Elder Lu, there is another piece of news. Xu Chen possesses a special Puppet." Lu Jiang frowned: "Did he steal it?" The surrounding members of the Wan Gu Sect shared the same thought as Lu Jiang. After all, without the support of the Wan Gu Sect, even the Five Poisons Sect could not research such a special Puppet. The spy immediately shook his head: "No, we currently do not have any Complete Puppets. But that Puppet comes with a Puppet Crystal, possesses an Eight-grade Physical Body and Eight-grade Divine Sense, and also knows Earth Grade Advanced Martial Arts. Xu Chen said this is a Heavenly Dao Puppet born from the collection of evil thoughts, possessing special Gu Poison, and it is a Complete Puppet."

"What? Heavenly Dao Puppet?"

Upon hearing this, the crowd of the Wan Gu Sect was stunned. Such evil thought Puppets are extremely difficult to form; perhaps only one exists in ten thousand years. But once formed, their power is incredibly fierce, naturally above the Eighth Grade. Xu Chen actually managed to take advantage of this. A member asked: "How do you know this? Xu Chen should have killed everyone to cover his tracks." The spy said: "As a spy, I usually habitually leave a wisp of Divine Sense on others to prevent the unexpected."

Lu Jiang nodded: "Well done. Maintain this habit. Go down." The spy clasped his hands, then disappeared from the Wan Gu Sect.

Lu Jiang clenched his fist slightly. This time, not a single one of the Nine Heavens was forced out. Didn't they say the Nine Heavens like universal harmony and correcting chaos? What exactly happened this time?

Or has the Nine Heavens already moved, but they just cannot see it?

At this moment, Xu Chen, in his residence, looking at the scene before him, felt a headache. He saw that the instant Qin Xiran returned with him, Shangguan Luoyun and Chi Lian arrived. Also coming along were Shan Qianqian from the Reward Department, and Jiang Hong and Jiang Lan from the Women's Academy. These three women stared at Qin Xiran, their alertness having reached its extreme. Another one coming to snatch Xu Chen, why are there so many! On the other side, Li Ruoling, Huo Ling'er, Han Ruoxi, Shengling Quanling Ernan, and Yi Bingrou stood aside. The two sides faced off against each other, making Xu Chen feel numb. Instead, Qin Xiran and Bu Fengshuang sat calmly beside him, acting as if it were their own home.

Xu Chen felt a massive headache, then asked: "Don't any of you cultivate?"

Upon hearing this, the women immediately looked at Xu Chen with grievance: "Kiss us, then we will go cultivate." Xu Chen's mouth twitched slightly: "That was Xi to thank me; don't make trouble." The women spoke softly again: "Then why did you kiss the Palace Master?" Xu Chen: "…………" Xu Chen immediately glared at Shangguan Luoyun. Didn't I tell you not to say anything? Spat it out, see? Now everyone is staring at him with burning eyes. Shangguan Luoyun hummed. Who made these little bitches so arrogant? So of course she had to let them know who the boss was.

In an instant, she felt extremely comfortable, so happy she wanted to hum a song. Xu Chen's first kiss is mine, la la la!

Seeing Shangguan Luoyun's smug appearance, the women immediately gritted their silver teeth in anger. Even Li Ruoling, at this moment, felt an impulse to imitate Shangguan Luoyun. Xu Chen quickly said: "Stop it. If you don't cultivate, I will cultivate."

"Palace Master, do you have resources over there? I want to enter seclusion to cultivate. This time, I will focus on my realm." Shangguan Luoyun, upon hearing this, was stunned: "Yes, there are some, but recently you have consumed quite a lot of resources. The Elders have some objections. It's not that we won't give them to you, but consuming them like this long-term is not a solution. Why don't you go ask the Empress? This woman's resources are probably more than the Jixia Academy." Xu Chen nodded. He knew that cultivating comprehensively to the Eighth Grade indeed consumed a massive amount of resources. It could be said that the resources he consumed recently were at least two hundred times that of his previous life. Yes, a hundred times was not enough to describe it.

But in this world, where are the quick Eighth Grades not piled up with resources? He bared his teeth: "Good. I happen to need to take up a post in the Tianzun Dynasty. I will go find the Empress now, considering it as taking resources in advance."

"Don't fight. If it gets out, it will be bad for your reputation, and bad for mine." Seeing the women subtly rolling up their sleeves, his face immediately turned black: "…………" He felt that if he didn't warn them, these women would really start fighting. Upon hearing this, the women immediately smiled sweetly: "Okay, Brother Chen, take care." Xu Chen nodded, then disappeared from the residence, heading straight for the Imperial Palace alone. "Hmph!" The instant Xu Chen disappeared, the women immediately crossed their arms, letting out a cold snort, none of them wanting to pay attention to the others.

However, Shangguan Luoyun soon smiled: "Everyone, you are all reborn, right?" Upon hearing this, the crowd fell silent, then did not deny it, after all, they couldn't deny it. Therefore, they all nodded: "Yes." Shangguan Luoyun chuckled: "I suppose we each have our own trump cards. I won't beat around the bush. If you want to fight for Xu Chen, do it on your own merits."

"Anyway, Xu Chen's first kiss is mine now, hehe. It won't be long before I take Xu Chen." The women gritted their silver teeth. Damn it, this woman, so lacking in modesty. Fortunately, Xu Chen is ignoring everyone right now, otherwise Shangguan Luoyun would have succeeded.

Bu Fengshuang said indifferently: "Palace Master, do you know why you couldn't enter here back then?" Shangguan Luoyun, upon hearing this, suddenly realized: "You, you set up a Ninth Grade Array?" Bu Fengshuang nodded: "Although it was a bit troublesome to set up, it finally stopped you from coveting Xu Chen." Shangguan Luoyun stamped her jade foot, secretly feeling ashamed and annoyed. Damn woman. This Bu Fengshuang is truly annoying.

The women secretly gave a thumbs up. Good job. Qin Xiran smiled lightly: "Then let's do it on merit. No one play dirty tricks, like attacking others, for example." Shangguan Luoyun snorted: "Such despicable means, I suppose none of you present would use, otherwise how could you be the heroines?"

Li Ruoling weakly said: "Um, Master, if Xu Chen marries me first, then you have no chance." Shangguan Luoyun, upon hearing this, immediately gritted her teeth and looked at her disciple: "Good, you even dare to fight your master for a man. Your wings have hardened." Li Ruoling looked up, gritting her teeth: "Master, Xu Chen liked me in the previous life. It doesn't count as snatching." Shangguan Luoyun spoke in slight anger: "If it weren't for your 3.6 in the previous life, could Xu Chen have been so miserable? How can you be so shameless?"

Li Ruoling spoke softly: "I know I was wrong, so I want to compensate Xu Chen." Huo Qilin suddenly said: "By the way, what about that Ye Xuan? Should we kill him?" Bu Fengshuang frowned: "Don't move rashly. If the most important protagonist of a world dies, major problems may arise. For instance, the world is extremely likely to collapse instantly, and order will be chaotic. So we can suppress him, but it is best not to kill him."

Shangguan Luoyun nodded: "That's correct. Our goal is to ensure Xu Chen remains unharmed, understand?" The heroines all relaxed: "Fine. Since our goals are the same, let's stop talking nonsense. From now on, we must give all opportunities to Xu Chen as much as possible."

"Anyway, that dog thing Ye Xuan has great fortune; it's hard to stop his progress." The women nodded: "Just follow the current rhythm. It's perfect." The women agreed completely. Next was the Puppet Chaos in half a month.

In this chaos, there are also opportunities to seize. As long as the operation is handled correctly, villains can also enjoy treatment comparable to protagonists!!!
