Peerless War God

Especially for Zuo Zhao, he was stuck in the middle, making it even harder for him to live.    

Chen Xiao chuckled and said with a calm expression, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I won't make things difficult for you."    

As he spoke, he patted Zuo Zhao's shoulder and comforted him.    

"Captain, I..." When Zuo Zhao heard this, his expression changed slightly. He wanted to explain but stopped himself.    

However, Chen Xiao interrupted him and said, "I understand what you mean. If you have time, you can come to Purple Cloud City to find me."    

Zuo Zhao heaved a sigh of relief and nodded heavily. He said, "Alright."    

"Alright, I'll be back."    

After saying that, Chen Xiao turned around and left.    

Zuo Zhao stood there and watched him leave.    

A moment later, a tall figure descended from the clouds like a straight blade and stood beside Zuo Zhao. It was Li Xuan.    

"They're all gone. Why are you still watching? It's not like your captain will know, heh," Li Xuan scoffed.    

Zuo Zhao's expression changed. He cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Young City Lord."    

"Hmm." Li Xuan paced back and forth as he looked at Zuo Zhao. He said indifferently, "Zuo Zhao, don't you have anything you want to say to me?"    

Zuo Zhao raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Young City Lord, just tell me what you want to hear."    

Li Xuan's face turned cold and he said, "Zuo Zhao, don't you know that the All Things Hall belongs to the King's Palace? You seriously injured the Seventh Deacon in public. You have to give me an explanation, don't you?"    

Zuo Zhao's attitude made Li Xuan unhappy. It could be said that he had been holding a grudge for a long time.    

In recent days, Zuo Zhao had never been nice to him. He was simply supercilious. He didn't put him, the young City Lord, in his eyes at all.    

Zuo Zhao had used his strength and the Blood God Armor to suppress Li Xuan, which made him lose a lot of face.    

In the Battle Sky City, although Li Xuan was the Young City Lord and had a respected status, he didn't seem to be like that in Zuo Zhao's eyes. After all, strength was still the most important thing in the God Domain.    

This time, Li Xuan finally found an opportunity to make trouble.    

Zuo Zhao only sneered and said, "Young City Lord, you're wrong. I'm clearly protecting your reputation. What's wrong with that?"    

"Oh, you still don't want to admit it? In order to stand up for Chen Xiao, your captain stood up for him, seriously injured the Seventh Deacon, and even slapped Li Quan in the face. This is not giving me, a young prince, any face at all. Could it be that in your eyes, your captain is even more important than the City Lord Palace?" Li Xuan asked coldly.    

That was killing and killing. It was truly digging a big hole for Zuo Zhao.    

In other words, he was forcing Zuo Zhao to make a choice between the City Lord Palace and Chen Xiao.    

No matter how Zuo Zhao answered, he would offend another person and plant a seed of disloyalty in his heart.    

To Li Xuan, this move could be said to be perfect. The so-called politics was nothing more than this.    

However, this time, Li Xuan had misjudged Zuo Zhao and overestimated himself.    

"That's right. That's right. In my heart, the captain is more important than the King's Palace. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Zuo Zhao stared at him coldly and answered.    

"You..." Li Xuan's eyes shook. He was surprised by Zuo Zhao's answer.    

He was so straightforward and didn't even try to hide it.    

Immediately, Li Xuan was enraged. His eyes were almost spitting fire as he said in a stern voice, "Zuo Zhao, do you know what you are saying? This is a betrayal to the City Lord's Palace. It is a betrayal to my father. Don't forget your roots. All the expenses and cultivation resources in the Heaven Battling City were provided by the War King Palace, yet you are siding with an outsider. You are truly an ingrate."    

Li Xuan's words could be said to be a complete fall out. He didn't want to be polite to Zuo Zhao.    

He just couldn't stand Zuo Zhao, so he deliberately dug a hole and wanted Zuo Zhao to jump in.    

However, Zuo Zhao was calm and didn't care at all.    

At this moment, he suddenly recalled what Chen Xiao had said to him just now, and he suddenly understood something.    

So that was what the captain meant. In this way, Zuo Zhao's heart was filled with confidence.    

Zuo Zhao stared at Li Xuan with an expressionless face and said lightly, "Are you done cursing now? If so, I'm leaving."    

"What... What's the meaning of this?" Li Xuan questioned with an extremely gloomy expression.    

Zuo Zhao rolled his eyes and sneered, "Young city lord, I know you have been holding a grudge against me and the captain. You don't want to accept it. You think we are the ones who took away the Xuan-Tian Treasure that should belong to you. Heh. I don't want to argue with you about it. There is no need. I just want to say one thing. If you really don't like it, you can go to the king and tell him. If the king asks me to leave, I will do it. I won't say no. Farewell."    

Without further ado, Zuo Zhao had no intention of continuing his tussle with Li Xuan.    

"You!" Li Xuan was instantly enraged when he heard that. His face burned as Zuo Zhao's words hit his weak spot.    

Although he was cursing fiercely, he didn't have the guts to talk to Li Zhanyan.    

In fact, he knew from the bottom of his heart that the Seventh Deacon deserved his fate.    

He just wanted to make trouble for Zuo Zhao.    

However, Zuo Zhao was so tough that he didn't give Li Xuan any face at all. That made him feel awkward.    

After saying that, Zuo Zhao floated away, leaving Li Xuan behind. He was extremely furious, and the hatred in his heart towards Chen Xiao had reached its limit.    

"Damn it!"    

...    

At the same time, outside the Heaven Battling City, there was another scene.    

Just as Chen Xiao flew out of the Heaven Battling City, three people appeared and blocked his path in the air. He was familiar with them, and they were Meng Gang.    

Beside Meng Gang, there were two other people. They were the cultivator with a sword and the cultivator with a saber. He had also met Chen Xiao before.    

Without a doubt, these three people were all subordinates of the Seventh Highness.    

Chen Xiao stopped, squinted his eyes, and asked: "I don't know why the three of you are here. If you want to recruit someone for the Seventh Highness, then you don't have to say anything. My meaning is very clear."    

His expression darkened slightly, and he became somewhat impatient.    

Meng Gang's expression was slightly awkward, but he still braced himself and stepped forward, "Brother Chen Xiao, how have you been?"    

"We meet again. We are quite fated to meet again." The other two cultivators also greeted him.    

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "You three wouldn't be so free as to deliberately block me here, right?"    

Meng Gang immediately laughed apologetically and said, "How would I dare? Brother Chen Xiao, you must be joking. I came here this time to reconcile with Brother Chen Xiao. I hope Brother Chen Xiao can forgive me for some misunderstandings."    

"Oh," Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong? Has your Seventh Highness changed his temper?"    

He looked at the three of them warily.    

Chen Xiao did not have a good impression of the Seventh Highness. After all, he was not someone to be trifled with.
