I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World - Chapter 521
Chapter 521: Chapter 281: The Vision of Yongzhou County_2
Upon hearing this, an old man seated in the main position interrupted and said, “We’ve already lost two clan elders. If we were to take action again, we must go all-out.”
As he spoke, he looked at an old man dressed in a white robe on his left and another old man in a green shirt on his right and said, “Elder Mo, Elder Zhang, the two of you will take action this time.”
“Alright.” The two nodded.
After a pause, the old man in the main position continued, “What about that outsider? Can we be sure he really came from the outside?”
“We can be 90% certain that he is indeed an outsider. Which spiritual-grade martial artist does not have a known identity and easily traceable background? It’s impossible for them to appear out of thin air, yet that person did just that.”
“Moreover, that person is already a spiritual-grade martial artist at such a young age. He definitely doesn’ t belong to our world. His hands possess the Xuan-level Demon Sutra and a bloodline, and he might not be a simple character in the outside world.”
A look of surprise appeared on the faces of many in the room, and some even showed hope in their eyes.
It’s been hundreds of years since an outsider had descended upon them. The sudden arrival of an outsider was undoubtedly a good thing for their ten great families.
After all, they had connections with the Three Sects and Six Religions of the outside world. If outsiders were able to enter, the ten great families would continually receive fresh blood, and their strength would be constantly elevated.
” If he is an outsider, how did he cross the Death Desert? Has the power of the Death Desert disappeared?”
“It has not. Our people have already gone to the Death Desert, and the power to turn people into sand still exists there.”
The middle-aged man in his sixties from before said again, “Shall I go and capture him?”
“Wait for now, and see the reaction of the Daxuan Royal Family and the five great families. If he is indeed an outsider, they will surely take action.”
Daxuan Royal City.
As the location of the Daxuan Kingdom’s palace, this city was far from being comparable to those small towns.
As the moon set and the sun rose, the eastern horizon turned red.
After traveling all night, Su Nan finally arrived.
In reality, it’s now six o’clock in the evening, and there are only just over two hours left before the third day’s Twelve Zodiac begins.
“Time sure flies by.”
Su Nan sighed, ever since he began cultivating the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture, half of his time was spent on repairing his physical body, which made him miss the days when he could refresh his state in the game.
If the game could still refresh the state right now, all he needed to do is end the cultivation of the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture before the game refreshes, then he could restore his body using the game refresh, instead of wasting a tremendous amount of time and energy to do so like now.
As foretold.
As soon as he arrived in Daxuan Royal City, the soldiers of the Daxuan Kingdom noticed him. Soon, a group of guards stopped him.
“Chen family’ s patriarch, the ancient divine key you obtained is something our Daxuan Kingdom once lost. Please return it to us,” said a man wearing battle armor and wielding a long knife, leading more than a dozen guards, stopping the carriage driven by Chen Ying.
This scene immediately caught the attention of many martial artists around.
“Is that Chen family’s patriarch, Chen Daohai?”
“It’s him! The one driving the carriage is Chen Ying, the daughter ofChen family’s patriarch. What are they doing in the Royal City?”
“I heard that Chen family’s patriarch killed one of Li family’s clan elders, and now Li family is looking for him everywhere!”
The crowd was curious, not understanding why Su Nan had come to the Daxuan Royal City.
“Young Master, what should we do?” Chen Ying’s expression was grave as she whispered.
Although the leader of the guards was only at the spiritual level and wouldn’t be a match for Su Nan, the problem was that the power backing them up was the strongest force in this world, Daxuan Kingdom!
Chen Ying was worried if they were to confront them, it might bring the fury of the Daxuan Kingdom upon them.
Su Nan stepped out of the carriage, glanced at the guards blocking their path, and said, “Did the National Master of Daxuan Kingdom order you? Tell him that if he wants what I have, he should come and get it himself.”
Upon hearing this, the guard leader’s face darkened: “Chen family head, this is indeed our National Master’s order. We hope you will cooperate.”
“What if I don’t?”
“In that case, we have no choice but to offend!” The guard leader gave an order, and more than a dozen guards behind him immediately surrounded Su Nan’s carriage, preparing to take action against Su Nan.
Facing Su Nan, whose realm was far superior to their own, the group of guards showed no fear. Perhaps, in their eyes, Su Nan wouldn’t dare to retaliate.
After all, for thousands of years, those who defied the orders of Daxuan Kingdom had all died—a gruesome death.
Su Nan shook his head, not wasting any more words, and directly took action.
Just a few breaths later, the guards were all killed.
They didn’t understand why Su Nan would attack them.
“Hiss! Is Chen Daohai crazy? He dares to kill people from the Daxuan Kingdom?”
“He’s finished! The Great King of Daxuan Kingdom will definitely not let him go!”
Killing the guards sent by the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom, what’s the difference from giving a public slap to the face of the Great King?
Seeing Su Nan’s disregard for the Great King’s face, many people were gloating, as if they had already seen the scene of Su Nan being killed by the Great King.
“Young Master, this…” Chen Ying’s eyes showed concern.
“Don’t worry, I have apian.” Su Nan calmly said.
Seeing him like this, Chen Ying opened her mouth, but eventually said nothing, now she could only hope that her Young Master really had the strength of the Peak of Xuan-level.
Upon entering the Royal City, Su Nan found an inn to stay at.
He didn’t immediately go to the Five Great Families. Before solving the issue with the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom, going to the Five Great Families wouldn’t yield any results.
According to the information from foreknowledge, the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom wouldn’t come to cause trouble for him immediately. After instructing Chen Ying, Su Nan temporarily quit the game.
In reality.
As the sun set in the west, Su Nan felt a little dazed.
It was at this time yesterday that he entered the game, and it’s at this time today that he exited the game. Unknowingly, a whole day and night had passed in the game.
After picking up his phone, several missed calls appeared, very conspicuous.
Without exception, all were from Wang Chong.
After thinking about it, Su Nan decided to call him back.
As soon as the call connected, Wang Chong’s inquiry came: “Brother Nan, did you just quit the game?”
“Yep, I got so immersed in playing the game that I just quit.”
“I have some good news for you, I am now a Star Palace Guard too!” Wang Chong said proudly.
Su Nan said irritably, “I knew it, you just called to brag, didn’t you?”
Having his intention exposed, Wang Chong didn’t feel embarrassed, but laughed, “Hehe, I was lucky yesterday and killed a Star Palace Guard. Now I have more than 3,000 points, and my ranking has already entered the top 1,000. But it’s just a pity that I didn’t get a Star Palace Divine Artifact.”
“You really are amazing, then.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Chong didn’t know if he was being humble or just boasting indirectly, and sighed, “There are too many Great Gods in this competition. Miss Bai Mengmeng can barely squeeze into the top 100.”
Being on the points ranking list this time were players from all Twelve States. Anyone who could enter the top 100 under such circumstances was definitely among the top ten in each state.
“Brother Nan, you didn’t run into me. If you had, I could have definitely leveled you up.”
” I wonder which battlefield I’ll be assigned to today…”
Wang Chong kept talking non-stop, with Su Nan listening in silence and occasionally interjecting.
Finally, after about five or six minutes, the two hung up the phone.
Afterward, Su Nan opened the forum and started browsing.
On the forum, the most discussed topic was undoubtedly the Twelve Zodiac.
The second most talked about was the demon creatures appearing in reality. This matter concerned the survival of the entire human race in the real world, so nobody dared to take it lightly.
After a quick glance, Su Nan didn’t see anything that piqued his interest.
Just as he was about to quit the game, a post suddenly caught his attention.
“Strange phenomenon spotted in Yongzhou County!”
With only a few words in the title, it attracted a lot of players’ attention.
Clicking on the post, Su Nan saw a screenshot from the game.
The screenshot was taken from the perspective of someone on a high mountain, and one could clearly see that a huge phantom emerged in the distance in the sky.
The phantom was very faint, as if it were wisps of smoke, not clear at all.
Only the outline of a human figure could be faintly seen, and behind the figure were six pairs of huge wings.
