291: An Ruoxuan was excited

The Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord was incredibly conflicted; it was either losing his freedom or death.

He did not want either.

But now, he only had two choices.

Or perhaps, he did not really have two choices at all, but rather only one.

That was to submit to the Divine Court.

Although he would become someone else's slave, at least he would not have to die. Although he would live a bit stifled, the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord was not someone who had not endured hardship before.

He was also a grassroots Cultivator who had climbed up step by step from the bottom, having encountered countless crises and faced countless risks.

Now, this was just a steep slope on his arduous path of Cultivation.

"My Lord... I am willing to submit!"

The Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord bowed respectfully, gritting his teeth as he spoke, his tone filled with intense unwillingness.

Su Chen could not be bothered with nonsense; his Divine Soul power instantly enveloped him, and in just a moment, he refined a Divine Soul imprint.

With this, the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord was completely under his control.

Su Chen said indifferently, "Do not feel aggrieved. Not everyone has the Opportunity to submit to my Divine Court. I spared your life and allowed you to follow me; that is a tremendous Opportunity for you."

The Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord hurriedly nodded in agreement. Now that he had become someone else's slave and his life was no longer in his own control, he naturally had to be careful about what he said and did.

Su Chen could not be bothered with his petty thoughts. If the Divine Court was not currently lacking in manpower, he would not even look twice at someone like the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord.

The Heavenly Spirit Domain was very close to the Black Gold Domain. Now that the Black Gold Domain Lord was dead and the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord had submitted, it was equivalent to the Su Family taking down two major domains at once.

Very good.

On the other side.

After carefully observing, the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord finally confirmed that the person before him was definitely not the Your Majesty of the Northern Dark Empire.

But within the Northern Dark Empire, where else could a second Immortal Lord exist?

Suddenly, the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord seemed to have thought of something, his eyes narrowing.

Could it be that this person intends to seize the Northern Dark Empire?

Su Chen waved his hand, interrupting his train of thought, "Return to the Heavenly Spirit Domain. You do not need to do anything during this time; just wait quietly for instructions."

Although the Divine Court needed to expand, it could not become a glutton in one bite; this matter had to be handled step by step.

At the very least, he had to stabilize the Black Gold Domain first. Only after completely controlling it would he consider other things.

The Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord naturally dared not disobey. After bowing again, he turned and disappeared from the spot.

At this moment.

With the departure of the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord, the people of Rizhao City gradually recovered their senses.

The events that happened today were a huge shock to them.

The Black Gold Domain... was about to change!

The strength of the Divine Court somewhat exceeded everyone's expectations. At first, everyone thought they only had some Grand Unity Golden Immortal powerhouses, but now it seemed that Immortal King powerhouses were their trump card.

This level of Cultivator only existed in one count even within the entire Northern Dark Empire.

They were considered top-tier powerhouses even in the Ten Thousand Star Realm.

Su Chen said indifferently to Su Yuanba, "Fourth Uncle, my father is already on his way. When he arrives, inform him to have... the Divine Court take full control of the entire Black Gold Domain as soon as possible."

Suddenly, Su Chen thought of something and looked toward Yang Menghua, who was carefully retreating in the distance.

Yang Menghua seemed to sense Su Chen's gaze and hurriedly knelt on the ground, begging for mercy incessantly. However, in the blink of an eye, he was directly obliterated by Su Chen.

He did not even think much of the Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord, let alone this Yang Menghua.

The Heavenly Spirit Domain Lord at least had the strength of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal at the Perfection stage and was about to break through to Immortal King. Plus, he had the Heavenly Spirit Domain under his command; the value of such a person was definitely not something Yang Menghua could compare to.

For a character like Yang Menghua, he would find him an eyesore even if he were kept as a dog by his side.

After giving the instructions, Su Chen turned and left.

There was still a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal at the Early Stage in the Black Gold Domain, who was also a former subordinate of the Black Gold Domain Lord. However, Su Xiao could handle this level of Cultivation, so Su Chen could not be bothered to intervene.

As for whether to kill this person or keep him for use later, he would let the Su Family make the decision.

After Su Chen left.

Rizhao City, Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce.

"What! An Immortal Lord powerhouse!?"

The woman with a graceful figure and exquisite features suddenly stood up, her face full of shock, her mouth slightly agape.

At first, she had thought that this Divine Court was done for.

But who would have thought that there would be a twist later on?

The key was that she had originally thought Su Chen was only an Immortal King powerhouse, but it turned out he was an Immortal Lord. One had to know that the strongest person in their Treasure Pavilion was only at the Peak of the Immortal King Realm.

Thinking of this, her face was filled with excitement.

This was a good thing!

After the Divine Court occupied Rizhao City, she had conducted an in-depth analysis of this faction.

She had even personally sent people to that so-called Xuantian Realm!

After the Xuantian Realm entered the Ten Thousand Star Realm, it opened to the outside world. Anyone could enter and exit, provided they followed the rules within.

It was not permitted to kill innocents indiscriminately within the Xuantian Realm.

If the Xuantian Realm wanted to develop, it naturally could not rely solely on itself; it needed the power of many people.

Just like Wangyun City back then, it required countless people to settle in together to make it more prosperous.

Of course, because the Xuantian Realm was a newly ascended world, its rules were weak, and its Immortal Qi was extremely thin.

Therefore, some Cultivators came in to watch the excitement, then did not stay long, and had no intention of living in the Xuantian Realm for a long time.

An Ruoxuan's face was filled with excitement, "Behind this Divine Court is a faction called the Su Family. They must have just arrived in the Ten Thousand Star Realm from some small place. Judging from the current situation, they will definitely want to develop their influence in the future."

"If this Divine Court can cooperate with my Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce, then in this internal clan competition, I will definitely be able to win. The position of Manager will surely be mine!"

She was of the Direct Line of the Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce. For the long-term development of the chamber, their President, who was also the An Family Clan Chief, had come up with a plan.

That was for the Direct Line members of the An Family to compete. If one could rank first in sales within the specified time, they could obtain the status of Chamber Manager.

This status not only carried immense power, it was almost no different from an Empire conferring a Crown Prince. The future position of President would most likely belong to this person as well.

Their An Family focused primarily on business, so they naturally valued business acumen, with Cultivation being secondary.

And the other Direct Line members, it was clearly impossible for them to find an Immortal Lord powerhouse to cooperate with.

Thinking of this, the excitement on An Ruoxuan's face grew even more intense. A charming blush appeared on her pretty face, and her whole person exuded a mature and alluring charm.

As for the Xuantian Realm, after the Ascension, Su Chen had forcibly set up a secret technique. They knew about the matters of the Lower Realm in their hearts, but they were unable to speak of them.

Therefore, the people of the Ten Thousand Star Realm had no idea that the Xuantian Realm had ascended.

This matter was quite shocking, and Su Chen did not intend to make it public.

An Ruoxuan took two deep breaths to calm her inner emotions, then ordered, "Three days later, I will personally make a trip to the Xuantian Realm!"

According to the existing intelligence, the Divine Court was just in its development stage and must have a huge demand for resources.

And their Treasure Hunting Chamber of Commerce, as the number one chamber of commerce in the Northern Dark Empire, had plenty of backing and could certainly meet the needs of the Divine Court.

As long as a cooperation could be reached, An Ruoxuan had a seventy percent chance of securely securing her position as Manager.

Beside An Ruoxuan, that old man nodded respectfully. The aura on her body was not weak either; she was An Ruoxuan's Dao Protector, possessing the Cultivation of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal at the Perfection stage.

It was precisely because of this that she was able to detect Su Chen's Realm after he had deliberately suppressed his Cultivation.
