Peerless War God

Chen Xiao raised his glass and clinked it with Meng Gang's.    

At this time, Meng Gang suddenly approached Chen Xiao and whispered to him, "Chen Xiao, it is fine if you don't want to be recruited by the Seventh Prince, but I have to remind you that the First Prince and Third Prince are also secretly taking action. Since you have rejected the Seventh Prince, you should also know the other two. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous for you."    

After hearing this, Chen Xiao's eyes flashed, and he looked around.    

Among these seemingly inconspicuous toasts, there was probably an unknown secret hidden inside.    

It seemed that the treasure competition this time was not the most important thing. Recruiting talented people for the princes of the Wushuang Divine Kingdom, no, recruiting hired thugs, was the most important thing.    

Thinking of that, Chen Xiao sneered in his heart. What a good plan.    

He could completely predict that at the moment of great change, countless people would have thoughts of submitting to him just to survive.    

Especially those rogue cultivators who had no one to rely on.    

He had to admit that this was a scheme. Even though they knew that there might be a big pit inside, they still had to jump into it. It was truly pitiful and laughable.    

"Thank you for your reminder, Brother Meng. I will remember it." Chen Xiao nodded and said.    

Meng Gang patted Chen Xiao on the shoulder and said with a smile, "That's good. This is also for your own good."    

"Okay," Chen Xiao replied noncommittally. Naturally, he didn't try to embarrass him.    

Meng Gang was also very satisfied with this.    

Although he did not succeed in recruiting Chen Xiao in the name of the Seventh Prince, as long as Chen Xiao was not recruited by the First Prince and the Third Prince and became their opponent, that was enough.    

With one side losing and the other losing, it was the beginning of the imbalance.    

"Then we'll meet again later. I'll go greet the others." Meng Gang said to Chen Xiao.    

"Okay, do whatever you want." Chen Xiao said.    

As a result, Meng Gang walked over to the other Tribulation Transcender cultivators and greeted them warmly. It was very effective.    

After all, not everyone had the same confidence as Chen Xiao. Most Tribulation Transcender cultivators still wanted to find a big backer to rely on.    

And there was no doubt that the Seventh Prince's backer was strong enough.    

In short, this was a night banquet with their own ulterior motives. Everyone had their own thoughts, either for fame or for their own benefits.    

On the contrary, Chen Xiao was the one who was the most out of place.    

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao couldn't help but mock himself, thinking to himself, "This is too hypocritical. Everyone is wearing a fake smile on their faces. As expected, I really can't blend in. Fine, there's no need to force it."    

He raised his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.    

The feeling of being alone and not being noticed by others gave him a unique understanding that transcended everything.    

"The strong are always lonely. Soon, you will get used to all of this. Alright, the main show is about to begin." At this time, Hiro spoke.    

"Hmm?"    

Hmm? The moment he finished speaking, he heard a song that spread throughout the entire courtyard of the prince's mansion.    

"The prince has arrived."    

Although this voice was not loud, it was extremely penetrating. The Tribulation Transcenders who had just been chatting with each other immediately fell silent and looked toward the source of the voice.    

Chen Xiao was no exception. He looked carefully.    

He saw a burly man with a square face and a middle-aged appearance. His body was like a fierce tiger, and his aura was like an Azure Dragon. He walked at the front with an imposing manner like the mountains and the seas.    

This person was the Battle Lord, Li Zhan, who was a half-step Immortal. Under Chen Xiao's divine sense's perception, he was like a scorching sun at noon, dazzling to the eye and making people not dare to look directly at him.    

Li Zhan walked at the very front, while the two well-dressed young men had smiles on their faces. They were rich and powerful, and only lagged behind by half a step, following closely behind.    

Although Chen Xiao did not know the two of them, he was attracted by them with a single glance.    

Moreover, he noticed a small detail. He didn't know when Meng Gang started to follow one of the young men silently. He was like a follower, but also like a shadow.    

"Is the one in front of Meng Gang the Seventh Prince?" Seeing this, Chen Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and even his breathing stopped for a few breaths.    

He couldn't help but become nervous.    

After all, this was the first time he had seen the prince of the Wushuang Divine Empire. He was a terrifying existence who held the power to kill countless people, and his power was monstrous.    

Then the Third Prince was standing beside the Seventh Prince.    

Chen Xiao looked up and saw that the Third Prince was even more mature than the Seventh Prince. He was always wearing a smile on his face.    

Although he knew that this smile was fake, it still gave people a sense of familiarity and couldn't help but get closer to him.    

To be able to do this, he was definitely not an ordinary person. Be it his bearing or his pride, both of them were deeply ingrained in his heart. He was definitely not an ordinary person.    

After the three of them, there were seven experts at the Immortal level with powerful auras. There was the Purple-Gold Marquis, Gu Changsheng, the Marquis of Wind, and the Dao Sovereign of Pure Yang.    

As for the others, Chen Xiao did not know them. They must have extraordinary backgrounds as well.    

In fact, Chen Xiao even saw Zhou Xun in this group. However, Zhou Xun's status was clearly much lower than that of the Marquis of Purple Gold and the others.    

The group of people had clear positions. They were in an orderly manner, and there was no doubt that they were of high and low status. This also proved one thing.    

In other words, Zhou Xun's strength was far inferior to that of the Marquis Zi Jin and the other experts in the Immortal Realm, and he was stronger than those at the peak of the Tribulation Transcender Stage.    

"Hmm?"    

Chen Xiao's gaze landed on Zhou Xun. The other party felt something and also looked over. When he found out that it was Chen Xiao, his eyes revealed an ominous glint as he glared at him with hatred and killing intent. He seemed to have malicious intentions.    

"Chen Xiao, it's actually him. Sure enough, he also came to this Treasure Auction. It's so good that I can take the opportunity to get rid of him." Zhou Xun thought.    

Then, he sent a sound transmission over to Chen Xiao, "Chen Xiao, we meet again. Enemies really meet on a narrow road. This time, don't let me bump into you, or else you'll be dead for sure."    

...""    

Chen Xiao only glanced at him coldly and did not reply.    

Firstly, there was no need. He had enough confidence. Secondly, he had a deep grudge with Zhou Xun that would not end until one of them died. There was no point in saying anything more. He would just fight to the death.    

These words were also given back to you. Chen Xiao coldly snorted in his heart and shifted his gaze away.    

Right now, the real protagonists of this night's dinner were not the two of them, but the Duke of Zhan, Li Zhan.    

At this moment, all the eyes of the Tribulation Transcenders present fell on Li Zhan. They were watching his every action, which attracted the attention of countless people.    

"Greetings, Duke of Zhan."    

"Greetings, Duke of Zhan."    

"Greetings to the Duke of Zhan."    

"War King!"    

Everywhere they passed by, they would all greet him with utmost respect. They did not dare to be the slightest bit careless. However, Chen Xiao was further away, so it was much easier for him to deal with them.    

Then, Li Zhan arrived at the center of the courtyard. His eyes were as sharp as lightning as he swept his gaze around the courtyard. With a confident smile on his face, he opened his mouth and spoke.
