By noon the next day, Xiao Chen and Meng Xian’er had already disguised themselves and entered the Heavenly Martial Palace. Everywhere they went, they were all golden and brilliant, carved fences and jade, indescribably grand and magnificent.

A lot of forces in Wuwang Sea have come today, Every year at the turn of spring and summer, Apart from those great powers in Wuwang Sea, or some powers that had cultivated for more than a thousand years and were guarded by old monsters, these powers did not need to pay tribute. The Tianwu King did not have the ability to make these powers pay tribute, but as for the smaller powers, they would most likely come to the Imperial City to pay tribute. After paying tribute, they would be able to ensure that the mountain gate would be safe for the coming year.

However, the various factions knew that the spirit stones that had condensed the earth’s Spiritual Bloodline Force would eventually be devoured by the Tianwu King. The other 70% would have to be sent to the Insatiable Azure Sea.

In order to have enough spirit stones handed over every year, the various sects below were constantly fighting each other. It could be said that they were in an extremely miserable situation. Xiao Chen and Meng Xian’er had directly arrived at the Imperial City. If they went to those small powers, they would naturally be able to see these battles.

Everyone from the various factions lowered their heads and remained silent. They walked towards the Heavenly Martial Hall one after another. The people Xiao Chen and Meng Xian’er saw a few days ago had naturally also come today. However, they had all changed their attire and were no longer wearing black battle robes.

“Look, those people are on the other side.”

Meng Xian’er lowered her head and sent a secret message to Xiao Chen.

“Mm …”

Xiao Chen naturally saw the white-haired old man long ago. At this moment, he remained silent and looked at Meng Xian’er. The two of them had already formed a tacit understanding and gradually slowed down their pace, allowing the others to head towards the Heavenly Martial Palace first.

When they arrived outside the Heavenly Martial Palace, everyone gradually slowed down. Looking up, they saw that the entire Heavenly Martial Palace was ten times larger than an ordinary palace. On top of that palace sat an exceptionally sturdy person.

However, from a distance outside the hall, that person was at least thirty meters tall. Just sitting there, he was as heavy as a small hill. In his embrace, there was a seductive woman in red.

This burly man was none other than the Heavenly Martial King, and the woman in red was his favorite beloved concubine. She was also the woman that everyone in the entire Heavenly Martial Palace was afraid of.

The ancient martial arts that Emperor Tianwu cultivated condensed the aura of the Divine Astral realm. It could break through cultivators’ Genuine energy. He was neither an immortal nor a devilish person, so he called himself the ‘Divine Astral realm’. At the same time, because the aura of the Divine Astral realm that he cultivated could break through cultivators’ Genuine energy, he considered himself to be superior to these cultivators. Even cultivators who had already turned into gods, he could not raise his head in front of him.

At this moment, everyone walked towards the Heavenly Martial Hall one after another. They took out their gifts one by one, but it was only a few spirit stones. The Heavenly Martial King sat on the hall and only took a faint glance. He was no longer interested in these spirit stones. In any case, he had to send the majority of the spirit stones to Insatiable Azure Sea.

“Your Majesty, look, these people send some broken stones over every year. There’s nothing new about them. The only reason you asked me to come here is to look at these broken stones. I don’t want them …”

At this moment, the red-clothed Demon Ji, who was nestled in the arms of the Emperor of Heaven, said in a charming voice. In her tone, she was greatly dissatisfied with the cultivation forces that had come to pay tribute today.

Upon hearing her words, the people from the various factions below couldn’t help but shiver. They didn’t dare to offend this Demonic Concubine. Three years ago, the two people from Qingfeng Mountain who came to deliver the tribute had offended this Demonic Concubine because of their words. In the end, the Tianwu King had their eyes, hearts and lungs dug out, their limbs severed, thrown into the Five Poisons Pool, and they were tortured to death.

“Mm, Hong’er, calm down. Wait, wait …”

Tianwu King also raised his eyebrows. He thought to himself, this group of useless cultivators only sent spirit stones every year. Could it be that only spirit stones were left in Wuwang Sea?

“Your Majesty, I have something to offer …”

Right at this moment, His Highness suddenly sounded an old and slightly hoarse voice. It turned out that it was the white-haired old man from before, as well as the two middle-aged men beside him. As for the other young disciples, they were standing outside the hall and did not dare to enter.

Tianwu Wang’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the old man and said, “Hand it over.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The white-haired old man and the two middle-aged men walked towards the front of the hall. When they reached the front of the hall, the white-haired old man flicked his sleeves and an exquisite sandalwood box appeared in front of him.

Everyone stared fixedly at the box. When the box was opened, a dragon aura immediately permeated the entire hall. Even the disciples standing outside the hall couldn’t help but stand on tiptoe and look inside.

The white-haired old man cupped his hands and said, “This is the Horn of the Candle Dragon I found in the Deep Sea Domain …”

“Horn of the Candle Dragon!”

Many people below were stunned. Could it be that it was really the horn of the candle dragon? Such a strange object must possess the power of an ancient candle dragon. If it was made into a magic treasure weapon, how powerful would it be? It’s hard to imagine …

“Dragon Horn?”

This time, the red-clothed Demonic Concubine was finally interested. She reached out to stroke the horn and felt waves of ancient dragon breath pouncing on her body. She said happily, “Good, good, very good” At this point, she raised her head and looked at the three people in front of her, “Which sect are you from?”

“I am Qingfeng Mountain, Cang Fengzi.” The white-haired old man cupped his hands and said.

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall suddenly became quiet. The atmosphere became abnormally solidified, and everyone remained silent.

When the red-clothed Demonic Concubine heard the words “Qingfeng Mountain”, the smile on her face also disappeared. She asked with a frown, “Are you people from Qingfeng Mountain?”

“Exactly …”

The white-haired old man cupped his hands again, his expression still unchanged.

The atmosphere froze. Tianwu King pressed down on the red-clothed Demonic Belle’s shoulder and waved his hand. “Forget it, Hong’er, let’s not talk about the past.”

The atmosphere in the hall was icy cold, but the disciples outside the hall did not know why. Especially the young disciples of Qingfeng Mountain, they did not know what had happened. Why did everyone’s expressions change when they heard the words “Qingfeng Mountain”?

Of course, they didn’t know that three years ago, their master had come here to offer spirit stones and was executed by the Tianwu King for offending the Demon Empress. Until now, they still thought that it was really as Grand Master had said. Their master had only gone out to search for spirit stones.

The atmosphere gradually eased. Tianwu Wang looked at the white-haired old man and said, “Only this pair of dragon horns?”

“No, I still have a Dragon Pearl to offer …”

As Cang Fengzi spoke, he took out another Dragon Pearl from his sleeve. However, the dragon aura around the Dragon Pearl flowed, forming a layer of faint light. Inside the pearl, there was a fiery red dragon shadow swimming, lifelike.

Everyone was even more shocked. Where did Qingfeng Mountain get so many treasures? Could it be that Tianwu King was worried about the incident three years ago and wanted to kill all of Qingfeng Mountain, so he came to offer these two treasures?

If they were able to successfully refine this Dragon Pearl, how could they not possess Power of Azure Dragon … Just by looking at it now, everyone’s hearts were drooling, but they didn’t dare to reveal it.

“Not bad …”

Tianwu Wang narrowed his eyes. He was obviously very satisfied with these two treasures. However, in the next moment, his expression suddenly changed. “Hong’er … watch out!”
