416: If all the members of the clan could work together, would I have to look for a husband for the empress?
“After destroying the Dark Forbidden Zone, I will make time to visit the Tianmang Mountain Range. It seems this person is absolutely confident…”
Watching the Two-Headed Demonic Dragon Puppet tear through space and depart, Gu Xuan murmured before a glint appeared in his eyes.
“Great Priest, are you trying to win over this group?!”
As Gu Xuan murmured,
Mu Wei also understood something and said in a low voice.
“The deaths of Mu Yan and Ni Lin are still unclear. Even if they died because of Ling Yao Female Emperor, it might still be related to this group.”
“Furthermore, this group’s origins are unknown. Is it really appropriate for us to invite them like this?!”
“What?”
“Are you suspecting that Tian Kui and Tian Xi are colluding to deceive us, or do you have absolute confidence that you can keep this group here?!”
Before Mu Wei could finish his words, Gu Xuan calmly retorted, instantly rendering the other party speechless.
“So you sold out the Empress…”
After a moment of silence, Mu Wei’s expression changed, and he couldn't help but retort again.
Empress Mu Xuanyi.
She held a sacred position in the hearts of several of them.
If someone else had said what Gu Xuan just said, he estimated he would have already attacked and killed them.
“Empress…”
“One could say Old man watched her grow up. She is now seven thousand six hundred and eighty-four years old, and her cultivation has reached the Emperor Lord Ninth Level for over four thousand years.”
“But she has been in power for so long and has never had the idea of finding a partner. She doesn't fancy any of you.”
“If this continues, how will the Empress’s bloodline be passed down?!”
Hearing Mu Wei’s words, Gu Xuan’s expression darkened, and he said in a low voice.
These words,
caused Mu Wei, Tian Kui, and the others’ expressions to stiffen, and they all lowered their heads, avoiding eye contact.
The few of them present,
had all admired or loved Empress Mu Xuanyi, but none of them could truly capture her interest.
And Empress Mu Xuanyi’s criteria for a partner were very simple.
First, their strength must be greater than hers.
Second, she must like them!
None of them could even meet the first condition, let alone make Empress Mu Xuanyi like them.
“If only one of the clansmen could live up to expectations and be someone the Empress could fancy, would Old man need to find a Husband for the Empress?!”
Seeing Mu Wei and the others speechless, Gu Xuan snorted in annoyance at this moment.
“Also…”
“The words Old man just said are not to reach the Empress’s ears.”
“Otherwise, if the Empress comes to beat this old man, Old man can only vent his anger on you few.”
After these words fell, Mu Wei and the others’ expressions changed.
They were well aware of how terrifying this Great Priest was.
His combat power was second only to Empress Mu Xuanyi.
If they truly offended him, getting severely beaten and being bedridden for a while would be the least of their worries.
“Go back. Keep a close eye on the Dark Forbidden Zone these few days. You absolutely cannot miss any intelligence.”
“As for the matter of Mu Yan and Ni Lin, report it to the Empress using Tian Kui’s explanation, and erect a memorial tablet for them in the ancestral hall.”
After speaking,
Gu Xuan gave Tian Kui and Tian Xi a meaningful look. At this moment, he seemed to have sensed something, but he didn't state it directly.
This caused Tian Kui and Tian Xi’s expressions to stiffen, and a chill couldn't help but surge up their backs.
As for Mu Wei and Ni Han,
their hearts were still somewhat suspicious at this time, but after their expressions changed a few times, they didn’t say anything.
Everything can only be seen three days later, based on Xiao Chen’s actions.
If Xiao Chen can truly destroy the Dark Forbidden Zone, then today’s matter will end hastily like this.
But if the other party is just bluffing,
then they will have to investigate the many suspicious points from today.
With various thoughts in their minds, the group also left this place and returned to the Tianmang Mountain Range.
…………
On the other side.
Accompanied by a roar in the void, the Twin-Headed Demonic Dragon Carriage also returned to Huanxin City and then descended onto the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce square.
Such astonishing commotion immediately alarmed the entire Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, causing Duanmu Xueying and Liu Yanfei and the others to come out one after another.
“Husband is finally back…”
Seeing the Twin-Headed Demonic Dragon Carriage, Duanmu Xueying and the others showed joy.
A few days ago, when Xiao Chen was about to depart, considering that there would be a major battle on this trip,
they didn't follow along to cause trouble.
Now seeing the group return safely, the worry in their hearts could finally be put to rest.
“Young Master Xiao is finally back. Nothing major happened, did it?”
After Xiao Chen comforted Duanmu Xueying and the others for a while, Liu Yanfei smiled and asked from the side.
A few days ago,
Xiao Chen had only told her that he had an urgent matter to deal with and asked her to help look after Duanmu Xueying and the others.
Then he left in a hurry.
Now that he had returned, she was somewhat curious about what had happened.
“Nothing major…”
“Just went to the Hundred Beast Mountain Range and killed an Elder of the Dark Forbidden Zone.”
Xiao Chen smiled faintly upon hearing this and explained casually.
However, these words,
caused Liu Yanfei and the others’ pupils to shrink, and their faces showed a look of shock.
Without a doubt,
with the strength of Xiao Chen and his group, anyone mentioned by him must be an Emperor Lord Realm Elder.
They wondered which Emperor Lord from the Dark Forbidden Zone was actually killed by this Young Master.
“Oh, right, I left in a bit of a hurry earlier and forgot about this matter.”
Saying this, Xiao Chen took out a naring and then handed it to Liu Yanfei.
“There are twenty Emperor Lord Level treasures inside. I’ll trouble your Wanbao Chamber of Commerce to help me auction them off and exchange them for spirit crystals.”
“After this batch is processed, I will give you another batch.”
“W-What?!”
“There are twenty Emperor Lord Level supreme treasures inside?!”
Hearing Xiao Chen’s words, Liu Yanfei was first stunned, then raised her head in disbelief.
She thought she had misheard.
Emperor Lord Level treasures were rare in the Eastern Region. Unless these items were truly useless to them, even ancient family powers would not easily auction them.
Was this Young Master really not bragging?
In her heart, she was shocked.
Liu Yanfei’s spiritual sense entered the naring, looking at the twenty heaven and earth treasures emitting terrifying energy fluctuations inside.
Even though she had seen the world, she still felt a sense of suffocation at this moment.
There were indeed twenty Emperor Lord Level treasures, including Emperor Weapons and spiritual medicines.
Some were even of high quality, reaching the Emperor Lord Level high-grade!
Which ancient family power did this Young Master bloodbath to be able to take out so many treasures at once?!
“Oh, right, besides that…”
“I’ll trouble you to send people to keep an eye on the movements of the Dark Forbidden Zone these few days and see if the Emperor Realm Experts they sent out have returned to the Dark Forbidden Zone.”
While Liu Yanfei was in shock, Xiao Chen calmly added.
This made Liu Yanfei look up with a puzzled expression.
Immediately after, as if thinking of something, she said with a hint of horror.
“Could Gongzi be planning to hunt down the Emperor Lord Realm Elders of the Dark Forbidden Zone?!”
The Dark Forbidden Zone had always intimidated the Eastern Region with assassinations and hunts. Unexpectedly, they were now being targeted by a Human Race expert.
This was somewhat comical.
But if they hunted the Elders of the Dark Forbidden Zone, completely enraging the experts of the Dark Forbidden Zone, their full force coming out would be terrifying!
Although Xiao Chen and his group were strong, in her opinion, they were still far from being able to contend with the Dark Forbidden Zone.
“No…”
Xiao Chen shook his head upon hearing this, explaining the reason directly.
“Three days later, I will go and destroy the Dark Forbidden Zone, so I must have enough intelligence.”
Boom!!
Hearing Xiao Chen’s words, Liu Yanfei and the others felt a roar explode in their minds.
They were all stunned in place.
Destroy the Dark Forbidden Zone, is this real or fake?!
This is a terrifying force comparable to ancient families. How can it be destroyed just because someone says they want to destroy it?!
As Liu Yanfei’s pupils contracted violently, only one thought remained in her mind.
That was… Xiao Chen was crazy!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to say such an absurd thing.
