Peerless War God

And it was obvious that the two of them were stubborn. Neither of them would submit to the other.    

For a moment, the atmosphere between the two of them was very stiff. There was even a faint feeling of daggers drawn.    

At this moment, a strong and healthy figure suddenly rushed over and stopped between the two of them. It was Ye Gubei.    

After glancing at the two of them, he ignored Chen Xiao and bowed to Li Xuan, saying: "Young City Lord."    

Seeing that, Li Xuan restrained himself a little and asked, "What's the matter?"    

Li Xuan knew Ye Gubei's real identity very well. However, Li Xuan did not put such a prodigal son in his eyes at all.    

To him, a mere prodigal son who wasn't highly regarded had no one to rely on. He didn't have the slightest interest in him at all.    

Of course, he didn't mind at all. In fact, he even looked down on him.    

"Master wants to see you, Chen Xiao!" Ye Gubei's face darkened as he turned his head to look at Chen Xiao.    

He was also very sensitive to Li Xuan's attitude of disdain towards him. His expression was very ugly and displeased.    

"Heh!" Hearing that, Li Xuan sneered and didn't say anything.    

Chen Xiao pondered for a moment before nodding: "Alright."    

For him, Ye Gubei had come at the perfect time to help him out.    

"Let's go." Ye Gubei nodded at Li Xuan, then turned around and left with an expressionless face.    

When Chen Xiao saw this, he immediately followed.    

Behind him, Li Xuan stood where he was. His eyes flashed with a cold light as he stared coldly at the back of the two of them. He was thinking about something.    

On the way, Ye Gubei glanced at Chen Xiao and asked: "What did Li Xuan say to you?"    

Chen Xiao sneered and said, "Nothing. You should be able to guess it, right?"    

Hearing that, Ye Gubei laughed, he was very disdainful, and said: "It's like this, did you agree?"    

"Nope." Chen Xiao shook his head and said.    

The smile on Ye Gu Bei's face grew wider, to the point that he even started to gloat as he said: "Those people think that they are high above everyone else and that they can trample everyone under their feet, allowing them to do as they please and take whatever they want. However, they never thought that one day, there would be retribution."    

Ye Gu Bei's words surprised Chen Xiao. At this moment, there seemed to be something on Ye Gu Bei that he couldn't understand.    

"Retribution? You also believe in this kind of thing?" Chen Xiao said in disdain.    

The so-called payback was just a form of psychological comfort for the weak. They clearly knew that they were powerless to change anything, so they could only curse him in their hearts.    

There would be retribution? In Chen Xiao's ears, these words were so laughable.    

Ye Gubei sighed and said: "That's right, retribution? Only a ghost would believe in such an illusory thing. Even if there was, it wouldn't be on these people, right? "    

He knew very well that at the very least, when he was still alive, the Unparalleled Divine Empire would still stand tall and never fall.    

These people would ride on the heads of countless people and act tyrannically, and they would continue to do so.    

For example, the Black Heavenly Spiritual Treasure that was supposed to be ownerless had fallen into the hands of some people. Other cultivators who wanted to obtain it had to fight over it, fight over it, and fight for it. It looked like a group of dogs fighting over food, which was a bit sad.    

Chen Xiao was very surprised that Ye Gubei would actually say such a thing. He asked: "It doesn't seem like you would say that."    

After he had interacted with Ye Gubei before, he felt that this guy was an arrogant and untamed person.    

He looked down on him and was also very disdainful of him.    

Such a person suddenly changed his personality and said such words to him. He must have been provoked by something.    

Ye Gu Bei smiled bitterly and said, "People change, don't they?"    

"Is that so? But it's not that fast. "Chen Xiao sneered.    

He had a natural distrust towards Ye Gubei.    

People would not change in a short period of time. People like Ye Gubei were even more so unless they really suffered some huge setback.    

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, and I don't care either." Ye Gubei said calmly.    

After hearing this, Chen Xiao suddenly laughed, "This is more like I know you. Oh right, why did the Marquis Zi Jin want to see me?"    

"Nothing. I just wanted to introduce you to the others." Ye Gubei said lightly.    

Ye Gubei said it extremely casually, but Chen Xiao immediately saw through it.    

It seemed that it was not a good thing for him to attract the attention of many people because he had obtained a spot in the Purple Cloud City.    

After a while, the two of them arrived at a pavilion in the courtyard. It was filled with birdsong and the fragrance of flowers. There were guards all around them, and there was even a Tribulation Transcender who was standing guard like a wooden stake, not moving at all.    

When Chen Xiao saw these Tribulation Transcenders, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something.    

If he agreed to Li Xuan's recruitment, he would probably end up in such a state. He would have no choice but to bow his head in front of others.    

With this in mind, his face was filled with anger and indignation.    

He had experienced countless life and death crises along the way. It was extremely difficult and dangerous for him to reach where he was today. He didn't do it for the sake of being a dog for others.    

He felt extreme contempt for these Tribulation Transcenders. It was simply tragic.    

The two of them passed through the group of guards without any obstructions. After a few more steps, they arrived in front of the pavilion. Only then did Chen Xiao see the people inside and outside the pavilion clearly.    

He only felt a burst of trance. When he was far away just now, he couldn't see what was going on inside the pavilion clearly. Only when he got closer did he see it clearly.    

Chen Xiao's heart moved, "It seems that they have specially set up a barrier that cannot be checked from the outside."    

That was true. The methods of an expert at the Immortal level were definitely not something that a Tribulation Transcender could compare with.    

There were more than ten people sitting in the small pavilion. Other than the Battle Prince Li Zhan, whom Chen Xiao knew, the Duke of Zi Jin, Gu Changsheng, the Dao Venerate of Pure Yang, and the Marquis of Wind, there were a few others that he did not recognize.    

However, from the looks of it, they were probably extremely powerful and had great backgrounds. They were all experts at the Immortality Stage.    

Chen Xiao could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. This Treasure Auction had truly attracted the attention of countless gazes, and even the experts who usually stayed in seclusion had appeared one after another.    

From the looks of it, it was definitely not simple.    

Other than the group of experts at the Immortal level, there were also some monstrous cultivators and geniuses standing outside the pavilion without saying a word.    

When the two of them arrived at the front of the pavilion, they immediately attracted quite a few gazes.    

Ye Gubei stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Master, I've called him over."    

"Mn," Inside the pavilion, the Marquis Zi Jin smiled, waved at Chen Xiao, and said: "Chen Xiao, come forward, I will introduce you to the seniors."    

"Yes."    

Chen Xiao replied and took two steps forward. He first bowed to Li Zhan, then stood on the spot and waited for his orders.    

Seeing that he was very sensible, the Marquis Zi Jin smiled. He first pointed to Gu Changsheng and the others, and said: "These three are the Immortal Realm seniors of the Kunnan Province. You have seen them too, so I will not waste any more time. You should teach these four a thing or two and broaden your horizons."    

"Yes." Chen Xiao replied.
