We Agreed to Brag Together, But You Secretly Dominated the World - Chapter 168
Chapter 168: Substitute Death Puppet
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Another incense stick of time passed.
Su Chen returned to Stone City, randomly found a restaurant, and booked a superior room.
After entering the room, he sat cross-legged and took out Fahui’s storage ring.
In Fahui’s storage ring, there were only two things that he valued.
The Saint Breaking Pill and a puppet!
Each of these two items was of extraordinary value. If they were placed in the outside world, they would definitely cause a bloody storm.
There was no need to say much about the effects of the Saint Breaking Pill.
That puppet was his biggest assurance in agreeing to go to Dashang!
The main function of this item was that it could die once in Su Chen’s place, also called the Substitute Death Puppet!
“I hope I really have no use for this thing.”
Su Chen muttered softly.
Then, he put away the Substitute Death Puppet and the Saint Breaking Pill.
After that, he counted the congratulatory gifts he had received this time.
There were all kinds of things inside, but not many of them could be used.
However, when Su Chen saw a pile of spiritual herbs that were hundreds of years old, he fell silent.
If he remembered correctly, these things should have been given to him by Cao Yun.
It had only been a few months since Cao Yun left the sect, even less time than he had been gone. Where did he get so many spiritual herbs from?
Moreover, most importantly, the ages of these spiritual herbs seemed to be very consistent, as if they were planted and grew together.
Could Cao Yun have dug up some alchemist’s medicinal field?
Thinking of this, Su Chen shook his head and chuckled.
“Perhaps this is Cao Yun’s own opportunity… If these spiritual herbs really resulted from Cao Yun’s opportunity, then his opportunity is extremely heaven-defying! Either it can quickly ripen the spiritual herbs, or it involves the legendary laws of time…”
At the same time, within Qingzhou, a huge group was currently advancing towards the direction of Dashang.
On the back of the ferocious beast at the front, the golden-haired eunuch stood with his hands behind his back. His eyes were indifferent and his expression was cold. There was an unfathomable meaning in his eyes.
“Lord, why are you…”
Behind him, a marquis from the Dashang Empire asked.
But before he could finish speaking, the blonde eunuch turned his head slightly and glanced at the person who spoke. He said meaningfully, “Divine Spear Marquis wants to ask why 1 didn’t kill Su Chen directly?”
“That’s right.”
The Divine Spear Marquis hurriedly nodded, his eyes filled with curiosity.
In his opinion, at that time, the strongest person present in the Dachu Empire was only the Eldest Prince, who was in the middle stage of the Nirvana Realm.
Even if the Eldest Prince and Su Chen joined forces, they would not be a match for this golden-haired eunuch.
Maybe, he could even kill the Eldest Prince of the Dachu Empire!
This way, Dashang would be able to eliminate many hidden dangers.
Although doing so might trigger a war between the two great empires, it was all worth it compared to the gains.
Furthermore, after their Dashang razed the Little Thunderclap Temple, experts had continuously emerged over the past hundred years. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say they had reached an unprecedented peak!
In everyone’s eyes, the current Dachu Empire was not a match for their Dashang Empire!
“Divine Spear Marquis, you’re still as naive as ever! Is a divine body that easy to kill? The strength of a body that has passed the ninth heavenly tribulation is already immeasurable. Even I might not be able to kill him!”
The reason it was called the divine body was not only because it was rare since ancient times.
The most important thing was that it displayed invincible combat strength among those of the same level!
Even though the blonde eunuch was a whole realm higher than Su Chen, he was still not confident of winning.
He sneered and continued, “Moreover, today’s event is not as simple as it seems. The dark waters run deeper than you can imagine!”
“Lord, you mean… There are other experts from the Dachu Empire spying on us?”
Divine Spear Marquis shivered and asked in surprise.
“Haha… Marquis Champion’s little trick might be able to fool others, but it can’t fool that person from the Dachu Empire! That person isn’t as stupid as you think. Marquis Champion’s plan didn’t work out, which might be a good thing for him and you. If it did succeed, I’m afraid his injuries would be even more severe! He might have even… died in Qingzhou!”
As the blonde eunuch spoke, he glanced at the unconscious Marquis Champion with a disdainful expression.
Marquis Champion was indeed talented, but he had underestimated everyone.
Did he really think that he could defeat the young generation of the Dachu Empire with just Fahui of the Little Thunderclap Temple?
In the end, wasn’t it still him who came to clean up the mess?
If not for him showing up, just Su Chen alone from the Dachu Empire would have been enough to take his life!
Not to mention the one in the dark!
“Lord, who is the person you are talking about?”
Divine Spear Marquis seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed as he asked in fear.
“Naturally, it’s the North Vanquishing King!”
The blonde eunuch said lightly.
As soon as he said that, the air around them froze.
Everyone’s expression turned ugly.
The north of the Dachu Empire was the Dashang Empire, and the North Vanquishing King was guarding the north!
North Vanquishing King!
The meaning of these three words could not be more obvious.
The main duty of the North Vanquishing King was to deter the Dashang Empire.
As long as he was around, it would be very difficult for their Dashang to cross the border by a single step!
North Vanquishing King had become famous very early. It was said that he was already an expert at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm a thousand years ago.
No one knew what his current strength was.
He might still be at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm, or he might have already broken through to the Saint Realm!
“Is North Vanquishing King here to protect Chu Feng?”
Divine Spear Marquis said in surprise.
He felt the Dachu Empire was making a fuss over nothing. They actually sent a king just to protect a prince!
This was simply unbelievable!
One had to know that many sect disciples would no longer have a Dao Protector after cultivating to the God Altar Realm. Usually, an old servant of similar strength would be sent to accompany them.
After all, there had to be a limit to Dao protection. It could not keep protecting all the way until the Saint Realm!
In this cruel world, one could never grow without experiencing some hardships!
Before the God Altar Realm, they still lacked the ability to protect themselves, so it was reasonable for them to have Dao protectors follow them.
But to have a Dao protector follow after the God Altar Realm more or less carried the implication of fearing death.
But immediately, Divine Spear Marquis thought of the sons of the Dachu Emperor, and he instantly felt relieved.
The Dachu Emperor only had two sons. If another one died, then the Dachu Empire would really have no successor!
“At first, protecting Chu Feng might have been a factor for the North Vanquishing King, but later… Haha!”
The blonde eunuch’s eyes were deep as Su Chen’s figure flashed across his mind.. He murmured, “If I had attacked Su Chen back then, I would have been the first to die!”
