“Is it possible for the Rosy Clouds Holy Land to just stand idly by?”
“Haha…”
“Is that useful? This is the will of two quasi-emperors!”
“The Rosy Clouds Holy Land is very dissatisfied. After all, the current dark creatures are only the vanguard, their strength is not that strong. Killing them can obtain countless Black Blood Stones.”
“Every sect is short on Black Blood Stones. Who will be willing to hand those dark creatures over to others to deal with?”
“Look, the elders of the Rosy Clouds Holy Land have ugly expressions.”
The hall was very spacious, forming its own space.
Various voices and arguments could be heard within.
There were even many holy lands and empires volunteering to take the initiative in clearing out the dark creatures near their territory.
This was also because the dark creatures hadn’t been around for very long. They coincided with the convening of the Prodigy Gathering. Given a bit more time, these dark creatures would have been eradicated long ago.
Of course, another small reason was that the dark creatures had crossed over from another world. Their place was very hidden.
The nearby major forces had been unaware until now. It turned out there were dark creatures near their headquarters!
At this moment, two core disciples of the Purple Clouds Holy Land entered with a light blue figure. The moment they entered, they attracted everyone’s attention. Countless people turned to look at the door.
“Eh?”
“How is that possible?”
It’s him?”
“How could he be here?”
“Su Chen?”
“Why is he here? Isn’t he a prodigy of the younger generation? Why is he sitting with us?”
“How does the Purple Clouds Holy Land do things? Asking us elders to sit with a junior is looking down on us!”
Upon seeing Su Chen, the quarrels in the hall quieted significantly. Among the onlookers, there were expressions of astonishment, delight, and derision…
“Have you all forgotten? The Great Mystery Sacred Sect is just a newly risen holy land. It’s not presentable to begin with. If even the Great Mystery Holy Son can’t enter this hall, doesn’t that mean no one from the Great Mystery Sacred Sect is qualified to enter?”
As soon as he said this, many people immediately mocked him. Indeed, it was just as he said. The Purple Clouds Holy Land had also considered this point, which was why they allowed Su Chen to enter the hall. After all, they had a good relationship with Su Chen.
If Su Chen hadn’t come, no one could be certain what kind of mission this group would assign the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. There was a high chance the dark creatures with saints would be given to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect to deal with.
With the Great Mystery Sacred Sect’s current strength, their only saint had just broken through and didn’t even have a sacred weapon. If such an existence were to face a dark creature, the entire Great Mystery Sacred Sect would be exterminated!
“Tang Shui!”
At this moment, Su Chen suddenly turned and looked at the person who had just spoken. His eyes were filled with coldness as he slowly said, “Do you want to see Tang Huo?”
Su Chen’s words were soft-spoken, but the entire hall seemed to be shaken by thunder.
“This young man is Su Chen of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect? Seeing him today, he really lives up to his reputation!”
“1 heard they killed many Quasi-Saint Realm experts in the ruins of the God Demon Sect. There were even elders of the Infinite Demon Sect among them!”
“Isn’t that so? Su Chen killed Tang Huo, and Tang Huo was Tang Shui’s elder brother. It would be strange if he didn’t make a move against Su Chen!”
“Haha… I originally thought this Prodigy Gathering would be just so-so. I didn’t expect there to be such a good show!”
Tang Shui listened to the discussions around him, his expression cold.
The reason Su Chen could have his current fame was because he had stepped on the Infinite Demon Sect. His current reputation was forged with the fresh blood of Tang Huo and the others.
Among the people present, whenever Su Chen was mentioned, the Infinite Demon Sect and the Dashang Empire were the names that couldn’t be avoided.
“One day, 1 will personally witness your demise!” Tang Shui was surrounded by killing intent, but he did not attack.
Firstly, he knew he was no match for Su Chen. It could be said none of the Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses present could defeat Su Chen. This was the same even for those at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. Secondly, this was the headquarters of the Purple Clouds Holy Land. If they acted here, countless experts would come forth to stop them before they could even make a move.
If things escalated… there would even be Saint Realm experts appearing.
“You won’t live to see that day,” Su Chen said indifferently.
Soon after, he slowly entered the banquet, led by two core disciples of the Purple Clouds Holy Land. After sitting down, the elder of the Purple Clouds Holy Land was on his left. He was an old acquaintance. When they met again today, the former smiled in greeting.
On Su Chen’s right were experts of the Dasui Empire. This middle-aged man carried a murderous aura. As expected, this should be a marquis of the Dasui Empire. Moreover… he should be the Dasui Emperor’s brother.
After seeing Su Chen sit down, the middle-aged man raised his wine cup and gestured at Su Chen. At the same time, he secretly transmitted, “Greetings, Fellow Daoist Su Chen! I’m Sui Shang, from the Dasui Empire. Previously in the ruins of the God Demon Sect, thank you for your help. If you need anything later, please speak up. The Dasui Empire is willing to advance and retreat together with the Great Mystery Sacred Sect!”
“So it’s Shang King! Sorry for the disrespect.” Su Chen cupped his hands slightly.
The Dasui Empire and the Dachu Empire both had a marquis guarding the border. The North Vanquishing King of the Dachu Empire was a famous existence in the East Barrens. The only one as famous as him was the Shang King of the Dasui Empire, Sui Shang!
It was said when Shang King was young, he had fought with the North Vanquishing King of the Dachu Empire before. The two belonged to the same generation and had similar strengths. Rumor said the North Vanquishing King of the Dachu Empire and Shang King of the Dasui Empire could have become saints long ago. But unfortunately, they had always lacked the right opportunity.
Su Chen didn’t know how the North Vanquishing King was doing. When he saw the North Vanquishing King before, his strength was still weak and he couldn’t gauge the other’s depth.
But Su Chen was certain of this Shang King. His strength was definitely not weaker than the Dasui Emperor! He was also at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm and only one step away from becoming a saint.
“Humph!”
At this moment, on the other side, Tang Shui coldly snorted and turned his head unhappily. In this hall, the force behind Su Chen was not weaker than them. If they continued to make things difficult, it was likely to attract opposition from the various factions. After all, the Rosy Clouds Holy Land and the Dasui Empire were not weak either.
Before Su Chen realized they were about to attack him, the Dasui Empire, the Rosy Clouds Holy Land, and the Purple Cloud Holy Land would have already noticed. By then, everything would become troublesome! Dozens of Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses joining forces would not be enough to trap Su Chen even with formations set up..
