Peerless War God

Chen Xiao's speculation was indeed reasonable, but it made Fu Zhenghong feel that it was unbelievable.    

"Do you think that the experts of the three great forces are really waiting for the old Sand King to die of old age?"    

Fu Zhenghong opened his eyes wide and looked at Chen Xiao with doubt.    

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "It's very possible."    

... "" Fu Zhenghong's mouth moved as she said, "This is completely a gamble. This..."    

Yes, a gamble.    

The old Sha King was betting that the three forces, including the Immortal Weapon Sect, wouldn't abandon their grudges and join forces against the Sha Race. The three forces were betting that the old Sha King would die first.    

As long as the Old Sand King died, the entire Sha Race would be like fish on a chopping board that could be cut at will.    

Originally, this would have been a contest of wills that would have ended with the demise of the Sand Race. However, no one had expected that the sudden change in the God Realm Continent, the crisis of the demon race, and the mysterious Dark Shrine would give the old Sand King a new chance.    

Chen Xiao's face darkened slightly, and he said: "The Sand King had no choice but to bet. Heh, thinking about it, even I suspect that the Dark Shrine might really be related to the Sand Clan?"    

Chen Xiao laughed self-deprecatingly, feeling that it was ridiculous.    

Fu Zhenghong was startled for a moment before asking, "You don't really think so, do you?"    

Chen Xiao shook his head and said: "I don't think so. The Dark Shrine is too mysterious. I have investigated so much information, but there is no trace at all. This is too unusual."    

To be able to hide his traces so well, there was not a single trace left.    

He must be extremely powerful to be able to hide everything. However, if he was truly that powerful, why would he need to hide himself and act sneakily?    

Or it was true. The Dark Shrine was a mysterious place from the ancient times. It was so long ago that no trace of it was left.    

No matter which one it was, it was a headache.    

Fu Zhenghong looked at Chen Xiao with a serious expression and asked, "So, what do you plan to do? One must know that the Yi Family is one of the four great families of the Immortal Weapon Sect. Their strength is deep and cannot be underestimated."    

Chen Xiao snorted coldly and said: "Of course, this jade slip cannot fall into the hands of the Yi Family."    

Fu Zhenghong nodded his head in agreement and said, "Yes, the Yi Clan is tyrannical and cruel. We shouldn't have given it to them."    

Chen Xiao smiled faintly, his face indifferent, and said: "It's fine, when the soldiers come, we will block them. Although the Yi Family is strong, it's not good to force them. I'm not afraid either."    

Fu Zhenghong sighed and did not say anything else. She could feel Chen Xiao's determination. It was useless to persuade him.    

The two of them chatted for a while longer, then got up and headed to the City Lord's Palace to attend the banquet.    

Several breaths later, they arrived at the City Lord's Palace. They stood in the air and released their aura of the Immortality Stage.    

There was a disturbance in front of the City Lord's Palace again. Several figures were rushing over to greet them.    

The young Tribulation Transcender leading the group was someone that Chen Xiao knew. It was Chen Feng.    

Chen Feng was extremely polite as he took a step forward and said, "I, Chen Feng, greet the two seniors. Are the two seniors here to attend the banquet of the City Lord's Palace?"    

Chen Xiao raised his head and saw that Chen Feng had become much more reserved today. He had lost some of his sharpness and had become more calm. The incident in the underground black market had been quite a trial for him, and it seemed that the effect was not bad.    

Of course, Chen Xiao recognized him, but Chen Feng did not. At that time, he was wearing a mask.    

"Yes."    

Fu Zhenghong nodded.    

Chen Feng quickly greeted them and said, "The two of you, please go to the backyard."    

Immediately, Chen Feng led the way in front while Chen Xiao and Fu Zhenghong silently followed behind at a moderate pace.    

Looking down from the sky, the huge City Lord's Palace seemed to be a little spacious and empty. Other than the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers, as well as the spiritual qi lingering around, there were not many people waiting on them.    

From this, it could be seen that the Floating Cloud City Lord wasn't a person who coveted pleasure.    

Chen Xiao laughed in his heart and said, "The City Lord's Mansion is so big, why would it be set up in the backyard?"    

Chen Feng was startled and immediately said, "Senior, you might not know this, but the backyard is where we welcome our guests."    

Chen Feng's eyes glanced at Chen Xiao twice before he quickly lowered his head. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity from him. Perhaps it was just an illusion, but at the same time, he was also moved by his youth. He didn't know if it was his appearance or his true appearance, so he didn't dare to look at him.    

Chen Xiao nodded his head and said: "Did the City Lord invite a lot of people today?"    

Chen Feng thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Not really. There are about twenty seniors in the Immortal Realm. Maybe you two know some of them."    

Over twenty Immortality Stage seniors? Heh. That is impressive. The lord of Floating Cloud City does have some capability.    

The journey was silent. After a while, the three of them arrived at the backyard. As soon as they approached, Chen Xiao felt the auras of several Immortal Realm experts. They faintly locked onto him and quickly dissipated.    

"We have arrived. Seniors, please do as you please. I will take my leave first."    

Chen Feng bowed and turned around to leave.    

"Yes."    

Chen Xiao nodded his head, and then slowly landed in the courtyard with Fu Zhenghong. As soon as he stood still, a cultivator walked over, smiled at Fu Zhenghong, cupped his fists, and said, "Old Madam Fu, long time no see. You are still alive. What a lucky thing."    

The newcomer was dressed in a green robe. He looked like a middle-aged man, and his figure was extremely sharp. The outline of his face was even more determined, like a rock. His gaze swept across Fu Zhenghong and Chen Xiao like lightning.    

Fu Zhenghong's body paused. He was a little surprised as he looked deeply at the other party.    

"Qi Fangzhuo, you're here as well? Why is the Dark Green Cloud so attractive this time?"    

Qi Fangzhuo smiled bitterly and said, "Sigh, it's hard to explain."    

In his eyes, there was bitterness, unwillingness, and anger.    

Chen Xiao found it interesting and recalled in his heart that when he was in the Setting Sun City, there seemed to be a few cultivators from the Qi Family who were chased to death by unknown people. Could it be that Qi Fangzhuo's appearance was related to this matter?    

He hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Fu Zhenghong, "Madam, who is this person?"    

"Qi Fangzhuo, the current Head of the Qi Family. The Qi Family is one of the cultivation families of the Unparalleled God Dynasty. His strength is on par with the Fu Family, and he's close to the First Prince."    

Fu Zhenghong replied.    

"First Prince.    

The First Prince's people?"    

"That's right. A few people from the Qi Family died outside Setting Sun City. Qi Fangzhuo probably came because of this."    

"Is the madame very familiar with Qi Fangzhuo?"    

"Not familiar."    

"That's good."    

Speaking up to this point, Fu Zhenghong faintly glanced at Chen Xiao, thinking about what he meant. Qi Fangzhuo's appearance had indeed surprised her a little.
