Peerless War God

The general director lowered his head but didn't dare to say anything else.    

As someone who understood the temperament of the Celestial Emperor, he knew that the current him was like a lion that could be easily angered.    

The Heavenly Emperor's side was the same, as were the four Heavenly Kings!    

Within the Chang King Manor, King Chang was cultivating in a secluded room. Other than the morning assembly, he spent most of his time cultivating in this secret room.    

However, he no longer had the mood to continue cultivating. He glanced at the communication star bell that was placed by the side and his eyes flashed.    

"Go, tell them that I want to go out and meet Overlord!" Chang Wang suddenly said.    

In the quiet room, someone suddenly appeared in the previously empty spot. He respectfully cupped his hands and said, "Yes!"    

As for Chang Wang, he once again summoned out a few star bell and quickly started to shake them. After a while, he kept all the star bell and stood up to leave the secret room.    

He didn't greet anyone either. Instead, his figure instantly soared into the sky and rapidly flew in a certain direction.    

The same scene was happening at the Residence of the Duke of Mu and the Residence of the Duke Cheng. Like Chang King, the two of them headed straight for the Residence of the Sky Tyrant Lord, one of the Four Heavenly Kings!    

The four Heavenly Kings usually had guards accompanying them during their travels, but this time around, it was either because they were in a hurry or because of some unknown reason. None of them actually chose to bring along any guards, only bringing their two trusted aides with them.    

As one of the four Heavenly Kings, the Overlord's Mansion not only had the highest combat power, but it also had the largest power under its control. This was also the reason why the other three had come to the Overlord's Mansion!    

At this moment, Overlord, who had been training in a quiet room, appeared in the courtyard of the manor as well.    

The other three Heavenly Kings were coming, and he naturally knew why they had come. The Heavenly Palace's Chief Steward had just sent a message to ask if his subordinates had caught anyone holding an undying bone, and the other three quickly rushed over, using their toes to think, they already knew what they were doing.    

If it fell into someone's hands, there would be no need to even think about it, it would definitely be sharing the benefits. If it didn't fall into someone's hands, then it would be the perfect opportunity to dispel any doubts they had about each other and allow them to fight the Celestial Emperor in a more united manner.    

Although the four Heavenly Kings did not live in the Heaven Palace that the Heavenly Emperor had arranged for them, they had also found a suitable planet for them to live on in the Starfields around the Ethereal Sky Realm, so they were not far from each other.    

Not even four hours after the communication, the three Heavenly Kings arrived at the Residence of the Overlord one after another.    

Facing these three, even Overlord would not be able to put on airs and personally go out to invite the three into the mansion.    

The three of them arrived one after the other. Those who arrived first didn't waste any words. They sat by the side quietly drinking tea while waiting for the others to arrive.    

When the four Heavenly Kings gathered together, the entire courtyard instantly quietened down. The nearby experts of the Overlord's Mansion were all personally protecting the area, preventing anyone from approaching and eavesdropping.    

"I'm sure the Celestial Emperor has contacted you. We are well aware of why he has come!" Chang Wang slowly spoke, his first sentence was enough to bring the matter to light.    

The other three's eyes flashed as they looked at Chang King in surprise.    

One had to know, this person rarely even took the initiative to start a conversation. This time, it was clear how enticing the undying bone was.    

The Celestial Emperor has indeed contacted us, saying that the people with the immortal bones were captured by the people from the Heavenly Court. However, we don't know the names of those people, nor can we find out their whereabouts, much less find out who took them away. Mu Wang nodded slightly.    

While saying this, his gaze was still fixed on the faces of the other three, attempting to discern some information from them.    

Unfortunately, everyone present was an experienced individual. At this moment, they were all expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what was going on.    

"There are only two possibilities for this!" Cheng Wang slowly said.    

Seeing that the other three looked at him, he continued: "The first way is for us to capture one of the teams under our command, but they have not reported it to us. Even until now, we are still in a daze, but the probability is not high.    

"As for the second method, there's a chance that the Celestial Emperor is invading from the east!"    

"Ambush the east and attack the west?" The eyes of the other two revealed a trace of surprise.    

"That's right, he definitely doesn't want us to know whether or not the immortal bone is in his hands. If it is, he will be the first to attack us, and if he asks us, then it'll be easier for us to target him, so that we can't each have our suspicions towards the Celestial Emperor. That way, he'll have enough time to comprehend the mysteries of the immortal bone!" Cheng Wang continued.    

When these words were spoken, the other three revealed looks of understanding. However, they were filled with doubt as they heard Mu King continued to speak, "If that's not the case, then someone else had disguised themselves as a member of the Heavenly Court to kidnap that fellow?"    

"This is not impossible, but the possibility is very low. Firstly, although the outside world knows the location of the immortal bones, they do not know the exact location, and it is not possible for them to directly rush to the target's location and just happen to have taken him away. Furthermore, according to the Heavenly Emperor's inquiry, there are at least two late stage Divine Soul Realm experts in the group that attacked us, so it is impossible for ordinary people to impersonate them, unless they are from the previous dynasty.    

"This …"    

The other three hesitated. They, too, were unable to say what was going on.    

In short, he really was gone.    

"Then what do we do now? If it really falls into the hands of the Celestial Emperor, it would be fine, but we are not his match in the first place, and we don't have any desire to covet their Celestial Emperor position. If it really falls into the hands of the Celestial Emperor, then we are not any match for him, and we aren't any match for him, and we don't have any interest in their Celestial Emperor position. Overlord said in a deep voice.    

As soon as he said that, the faces of the four Heavenly Kings turned ugly.    

There was no other reason, because although the four Heavenly Kings and the Heavenly Emperor seemed to have a subordinate relationship, the relationship between the two was far from like this.    

Furthermore, the four Heavenly Kings were helping each other. If the Heavenly Emperor wanted to make a move on a certain person, if he wanted to weaken a certain person's power, the other three would join hands and counterattack. This was also the reason why the four Heavenly Kings were still able to secure their position as Heavenly Kings after so many years.    

If it weren't for the four of them competing with each other, the Sky Emperor would have broken down into pieces long ago.
