Peerless War God

"Yes."    

The two nodded without a word as this was one of their missions.    

Luo Feiyu was a little nervous as he grabbed Luo Cheng's arm with his small hand.    

Luo Cheng patted her small hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid. With me here, nothing will happen."    

"Yes."    

As they went deeper in, more and more figures began to appear before them. They could see that ten thousand meters away, there were at least five hundred cultivators gathered. There was a large black mass of people, humans, and even Seafolk.    

In front of the crowd of cultivators, there was a dazzling golden gate. The gate was very large, and when you looked up, you would see that it was at least three thousand feet tall.    

The carving of a dragon and phoenix on the golden gate was vivid and lifelike. Symbols densely covered it, and the multicolored formation's brilliance revolved. It was extremely magical and extraordinary.    

Just by looking at this majestic gate, one could see how precious the treasures hidden within it were.    

The troops from both sides were clearly separated into two halves. On the left side of the gate was a human cultivator, while on the right side were the Sea Race's experts. Both sides were resting in their original spots.    

On the surface, it was calm and peaceful, but inside, there was a constant flow of undercurrents. They probed each other with their telepathic thoughts, competing with each other.    

The atmosphere was extremely tense. There was only one more reason for them to start a fight.    

And this reason was when the golden gate would open.    

Two figures were sitting cross-legged near the golden door. One was a crane haired human cultivator, while the other was a Gui living being. Both of them were using their own methods, obviously trying everything they could to break the formation.    

"It's actually an iron operator, it's actually him." Elder Di, who was beside Luo Cheng, said.    

Luo Cheng's face suddenly darkened as he said faintly, "The iron operator is here. It seems that my beloved third brother is also here. Let's go."    

Chen Xiao followed behind them, silently observing everything around them.    

The appearance of these people immediately attracted the attention of many people. However, they only scanned the place once with their telepathic thoughts, so they didn't care too much about it. After all, it was too inconspicuous.    

Everyone directly rushed to the left side of the gate, and the human cultivators all formed their own groups, forming one small group after another.    

For a temporary team to be able to come together at such a critical moment was already quite good for them.    

Amongst the many human cultivators, there were two teams with a lot of people and they were the most powerful. One of them was the one led by Yun Congfeng from the Shuiyue Sword Sect.    

Not long after Chen Xiao appeared, the fifth junior sister of the Shuiyue Sword Sect spotted him.    

"Big Brother Chen, you really did come." The Fifth Martial Sister sent a voice transmission.    

Compared to when they first met, she had clearly become more haggard and mature. Even after experiencing such a huge change, she was still able to maintain her rationality without being depressed. It was already not easy.    

Beside her were a few other female companions.    

As for Third Senior Brother and Sixth Junior Brother, they had been sticking to her the whole time, sitting very far away from her.    

Some things could deteriorate, especially relationships. In the face of life and death, the so-called love was not worth a single shxt.    

Now that she had come to this realization, she didn't know if it was good or bad.    

"Yes." Chen Xiao nodded and didn't say anything else.    

In that situation, although he had saved the three people's lives, he had only saved their lives in passing.    

If that despicable Third Senior Brother did not expose his existence, he might not have made a move.    

At the end of the day, he was just a delicate person who took advantage of himself. He did not know the people from the Shuiyue Sword Sect well, and it could even be said that he had some grudges against them.    

At this time, there was no need to go up.    

When Yun Congfeng saw Chen Xiao appear, he also cast a glance at him from afar, but he quickly moved away without saying anything.    

Due to the chaotic scene, Luo Cheng was able to notice this detail. At this moment, his heart was in turmoil.    

What was Chen Xiao's background? He was actually related to the Water Moon Sword Sect's Elder Yun Congfeng.    

However, he did not pursue this line of questioning. Instead, he led the rest of the group to the front of the group with even more people.    

"Third brother."    

The leader of this group was a young man who appeared to be around thirty years old. His facial features were upright and he did not smile. His entire body emitted a murderous aura, which was rather cold and fierce.    

Chen Xiao came in front of him and greeted him with a cupped fist.    

The young man slowly opened his eyes as a cold light shot out from his eyes. He glanced at Luo Cheng and Chen Xiao, who was on his body, as he said this.    

"Fifth brother, you've come at the right time. It won't be long before we break open the treasury."    

"That's great. I wish you well in advance, third brother." Luo Cheng said with a smile.    

From Chen Xiao's point of view, his smile was too fake, and it was even very awkward.    

Although the two of them were brothers, they were competing with each other. On the surface, they seemed friendly, but they were both holding their breath secretly.    

"Sure, sure. Fifth brother, thanks to all the hard work you've gone through, I can give you a few things that I don't want later and use them as toys for you to play with, hur hur." The young man said arrogantly.    

Hearing this, the two guests behind Luo Cheng all had a change in expression. However, it was not good to lose their temper. After all, this was a family matter between the two of them.    

"That's great. Since young, Third Brother, your favorite thing to do is to steal the toys in my hands. This time, you've been modest and are just what I want you to do." Luo Cheng replied with a fake smile.    

Although it was just a few casual words, Chen Xiao could hear the anger in it.    

Not only him, but the people behind both sides also showed undisguised hostility in their eyes.    

Chen Xiao sneered in his heart. Such a scene wasn't strange at all. The aristocratic families all seemed to have a great reputation. It was common for father and son to fight with each other in secret.    

On this point, the Luo family actually did quite well. Although the internal conflict was still very fierce, but there was a bottom line. They did not let the family's power decline because of the internal conflict.    

In history, there have been countless examples of great powers collapsing due to internal strife.    

The young man sneered as his expression turned gloomy, while his gaze looked deeply at the two guest elders behind Luo Cheng.    

In his eyes, a trivial Luo Cheng was nothing more than a little child that hadn't even grown up yet. How could he compete with him? It was nothing to be afraid of.    

What he feared the most were two Heaven's Chosen in the Half-step Heavenly Tribulation Realm. With these two people around, there was a high chance they would interfere with his plans.    

"Greetings to Elder Di and Elder Yu." The young man clasped his fists respectfully.    

Unlike the previous confrontation, he was extremely polite to these two.    

"Third Young Master."    

The two of them nodded in response.    

"I wonder if you two are interested in doing things for me? After the Dragon Palace finishes their journey, I will definitely reward you greatly." Suddenly, the young man spoke in a shocking tone.    

As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Cheng's expression changed to become extremely unsightly, and even his expression became somewhat hideous.
