”Liuu Tiandi, your ambitions are too grand.” After a long silence, Muy Changge couldn’t help but frown and say. Lord Duan Henghe is a taboo in the hearts of the four top forces in Ghost Wolf City; offending such taboos could spell disaster.

”Aren’t you curious?” Liuu Tiandi retorted calmly, ”If something truly happened with Lord Duan Henghe, do you think our Tri-Extremes Palace shouldn’t consider a backup plan? It’s better to shed light on an unknown dark path, otherwise, the threat would be too great!”

”And also, don’t forget, a colossal Thousand Cranes Demon Clan lurks with interest a hundred thousand miles away... If they were to detect anything amiss, what do you think would happen to Ghost Wolf City?”

Muy Changge and Taoist Qing Song’s eyes suddenly tensed at his words, cold sweat trickling down! Yes, if Liuu Tiandi guessed correctly and the Thousand Cranes Demon Clan noticed, what would become of Ghost Wolf City would be unimaginable.

”I agree to give it a try.” After a long silence, Taoist Qing Song said solemnly, ”Anyway, if we can drag down the other three families this time, even if we guessed wrong, the consequences shouldn’t be too severe.”

”I... War Soul Palace will withdraw.” Muy Changge hesitated for a long while before shaking his head and speaking.

”Muy Changge, you...” Liuu Tiandi’s expression changed.

”I still feel it’s not stable enough. Also, if you just want revenge and to test the City Lord’s Mansion along the way, whether War Soul Palace participates or not, it’s actually the same.” Muy Changge shook his head, ultimately refusing.

”So, War Soul Palace is out.” He said slowly.

”Alright then, since Master Muy, you don’t want to, I, Liuu, won’t force you.” Liuu Tiandi’s expression turned cold, his attitude distant, ”Let’s leave it at that. I’ll go visit the other houses. Brother Qing Song, I’ll come by Azure Palace later.”

Whoosh!

In the next moment, Liuu Tiandi directly left!

He was preparing to plot his plans.

Although Muy Changge had refused him, there was one thing the other party didn’t say incorrectly—whether or not War Soul Palace participated, as long as Taoist Qing Song agreed, Liuu Tiandi’s plan would be the same!

After all, two of the three palaces of the Tri-Extremes Palace had already taken action! What would outsiders suspect?

Evidently, they wouldn’t.

After Liuu Tiandi left, Taoist Qing Song looked puzzled as he glanced at Muy Changge, asking, ”Brother Muy, why?”

”I always feel Liuu Tiandi’s ambitions are too grand, his heart too wild. Lord Duan Henghe is a fear among the four top forces in Ghost Wolf City! And as for that kid, I always feel something is off.” Muy Changge said slowly.

”That kid, you mean him?” Taoist Qing Song was slightly stunned, then smiled, ”Are you overthinking, Muy Changge? Can that kid be that powerful, enough to block the united forces of the four top powers in Ghost Wolf City?”

Muy Changge was momentarily speechless upon hearing this. Then, he shook his head and said, ”Hopefully.”

Meanwhile, in the underground region of Ghost Wolf City, within an immense dark canyon.

There was a palace.

In the palace, a gigantic figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor sat on a throne, exuding a terrifying aura that made it unbearable to look directly at, causing eyes to ache.

Evidently, this figure was a very frightening character.

”Batian, was that kid the one you mentioned?” At this moment, the gigantic figure in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor spoke. The voice hummed.

”Reporting to the Pavilion Master, it’s him, just that...” Batian was standing at his throne’s left side and hesitated upon hearing this, wanting to speak but stopping.

”Just what?” The gigantic figure in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor asked.

”It’s just that the kid suddenly became so powerful? Comparable to the Peak of Fourth Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, I remember he wasn’t this powerful before?” Another figure enveloped in demon qi spoke, looking somewhat surprised as well.

”Hmm?” The gigantic figure in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor paused.

”Pavilion Master, it’s like this. A few months ago, his strength was at most around the Third Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, and now, now, his rapid growth makes it hard to recognize him.” Batian explained.

”What!?”

”A few months ago, only with strength around the Third Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm? How is that possible!?”

”Batian, you’re not joking, are you!?”

...

A commotion erupted in the palace. Strong auras voiced their disbelief.

Batian’s account was too exaggerated, making it hard for them to believe. It felt absurd.

”I can testify to this. According to the information we gathered some months ago, that kid wasn’t that powerful.” The figure enveloped in demon qi also spoke, causing a stir among the crowd.

”Is that so?” The gigantic figure in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor fell into silence. After a long while, he suddenly laughed and said, ”Then, either he was hiding when you saw him before, or in these few months, his strength underwent a transformation!”

”If it’s the former, it’s fine, but if it’s the latter, this guy is truly a terrifying character.” The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor murmured to himself.

”Pavilion Master, what about that golden-level defensive magical treasure that boy has in his hand?” At this moment, someone spoke up, their voice carrying a hint of greed.

”Don’t even think about it.” The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor shook his head and said calmly, ”That thing even I don’t dare to touch; it’s completely a hot potato. Do you think you dare to take it? You aren’t afraid it’ll burn your hands once you hold it?”

Upon hearing this, the person who spoke chuckled awkwardly but remained slightly unwilling, ”Pavilion Master, aren’t you being too modest? With your strength at the peak of the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Third-Level Demonic Beast, how could you not be eligible to take that golden-level defensive magical treasure?”

”Do you know how Duan Henghe got injured?” The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor laughed, answering the question with another question.

”How did he get injured?” The person was stunned, and the others couldn’t help but focus their eyes.

They knew Duan Henghe was injured, and quite seriously, so much so that he hadn’t dared to come for years, instead quietly recovering.

But none of those present knew exactly how he got injured.

”Years ago, an ancient powerful tomb was unearthed over in Earth Martial City. Duan Henghe got lucky and found a magical treasure with sixteen layers of prohibition inside, but do you know what happened then?”

The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor’s eyes flashed as he spoke casually, ”The result was, someone got wind of it and ran over to snatch that sixteen-layer prohibition magical treasure! Duan Henghe was lucky, otherwise, he’d probably have lost his life too.”

”Now, do you think I’m qualified to take that golden-level defensive magical treasure?” The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor asked with a smile.

The person asking the question fell into a shocked silence, not daring to speak anymore.

A sixteen-layer prohibition magical treasure is estimated to be at the same tier and level as a fifteen-layer defensive magical treasure, but even in Duan Henghe’s prime, he couldn’t keep it from being coveted!

No matter how powerful the Pavilion Master is, he’s only at the peak of Third-Level Demonic Beast Fifth Heavenly Layer after all! He’s still a bit short of the fourth-level Great Demon tier.

”Pavilion Master, what should we do now...” Someone couldn’t help but ask.

”Let’s wait and see.” The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor squinted his massive eyes slightly and said slowly, ”If I’m not mistaken, once that boy’s golden-level defensive magical treasure is exposed, the Qian Long Sect and Tri-Extremes Palace probably won’t sit still. When the time comes, we’ll wait and see, and when necessary, we might have to make a choice.”

”Make a choice?” Batian was slightly taken aback, eyes focused.

”Indeed. That boy is a good gamble, and if we win, perhaps in the future, our Dark Demon Tower can turn from dark to light.”

The giant figure clad in Nine Serpent Jiao Python Armor muttered deeply before saying, ”Tian Jiu, I’ll leave this matter to you for now. Keep a close watch, and report to me immediately if there’s any sign of movement.”

”Yes!” The figure enveloped in demon qi promptly nodded and said.

After that, the palace in the dark canyon fell silent.

...

At the same time, Ghost Wolf City was also undergoing a massive upheaval.

The Star Destroyer Monarch, head of the Seven Sons of Yan Zhen, was killed, and two Supreme Elders fell in succession! Such an event, no matter who hears it, is likely to be more terrifying than a storm at sea.

After all, what such strong individuals represent, only someone naive wouldn’t know! But now, so many have died in succession, a full three...

If the victim this time wasn’t the endlessly deep Yan Zhen Sect, the fifth top-tier force in Ghost Wolf City, probably other forces would collapse directly after suffering such terrifying losses.

And the person responsible for all this, a young man named Chen Fei, has already become a monstrous figure in everyone’s mind!

From the very beginning, from one of the Seven Sons of Yan Zhen, Yee Mu’s son Ye Qing, to the future Head of Yan Zhen Sect, Zhul Xing, then to the head of the Seven Sons of Yan Zhen Sect, Star Destroyer Monarch! And two Supreme Elders.

This kind of record and the rapid rise to power are indeed too astonishing and monstrous.

Moreover, everyone is keenly focused on one point! That is the golden-level defensive magical treasure Chen Fei used to fend off Zhao Wanyu, the existence at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm!

Golden-level defensive magical treasure, what kind of concept is that? Even if it’s just the lowest tier with fifteen layers of prohibition, it would absolutely be deemed a rare treasure!

At least, before this, Ghost Wolf City truly didn’t have a single extra one! And now, Chen Fei has brought it out.

”That’s a golden-level defensive magical treasure! If I can obtain it, wouldn’t I be able to stay undefeated forever?”

”Stop dreaming! With something like this, do you think the Qian Long Sect and Tri-Extremes Palace wouldn’t be tempted?”

”Indeed, I’ve heard some of them have already started taking action. The allure this kind of treasure brings is so immense, even the four top-tier forces of Ghost Wolf City may not withstand such temptation.”

...

In an instant, these kinds of talks were spreading like madness within the city.

Meanwhile, the four top-tier forces of Yan Zhen Sect in the city were also starting to move one after another.
