Peerless War God

“Don’t run away if you have the guts. Come and fight me three hundred rounds again, haha! Dragon Palace is nothing.”    

“Exactly, exactly! In the end, we still have to run away in defeat, haha! We won!”    

“We won! We won! Long live Purple Cloud City!”    

Above the Endless Sea, the army of Dragon Palace finally gathered together, yet they didn’t counterattack, and they slowly retreated instead.    

When the countless cultivators on the Isle of Sky saw this, they were greatly excited, especially the low-stage cultivators.    

After all, this battle was undoubtedly extremely risky for them. It wasn’t easy to be able to defeat Dragon Palace and survive.    

Naturally, they would erupt with unimaginable excitement and joy.    

It wasn’t just them, even some Tribulation Transcender experts were like this, and they felt rather fortunate to have survived.    

However, many Tribulation Transcenders still had a bit of doubt, and they said in a low voice, “How could this be? Dragon Palace’s army actually didn’t counterattack and retreated just like that. It’s really illogical. The island’s grand protective formation has been destroyed, and it’s absolutely the best opportunity for Dragon Palace to counterattack. Why?”    

“Why? Why? You should be glad that Dragon Palace didn’t counterattack, otherwise, it would be difficult to say.”    

“Yeah, even though we won this battle, it was extremely bitter. Several Tribulation Transcenders perished, and Dragon Palace can’t be underestimated.”    

"We were lucky to be able to survive. We should not be greedy and advance recklessly. We should first repair the formation on the island, and then slowly plan our next move."    

The group of Tribulation Transcenders discussed in a low voice. Finally, it quieted down.    

Under the leadership of Qin Daoyuan, they were doing the repair of the formation in an orderly manner.    

However, there were also many Tribulation Transcenders who did not dare to be negligent. They were fully on guard. If the Dragon Palace returned, they would fight at the first moment.    

They kept praying in their hearts, hoping that the Dragon Palace would retreat.    

"The Dragon Palace's army has really retreated. Captain."    

Zuo Zhao was stunned, but then he was overjoyed and said to Chen Xiao.    

Zuo Zhao, Fu Xue, Gu Lan Yue, and Gu Feng stood closely behind Chen Xiao. Their serious expressions were slightly relieved.    

This kind of big battle had ended just like that. It was really unexpected, but more of them were relieved.    

If the Dragon Palace's army retreated, the casualties on the Heavenly Sea Island would be greatly reduced, and they would have a chance to reorganize their forces and repair the formation.    

In this way, if the Dragon Palace's army came back again, the threat to them would be greatly reduced.    

It could be said that the Dragon Palace's army's actions were extremely foolish.    

For a moment, Fu Xue guessed in her heart and looked at Chen Xiao. She asked, "Captain, is it related to the old man who was seriously injured and on the verge of death?"    

Fu Xue was indeed intelligent. She immediately thought of the key.    

Chen Xiao did not hide anything from the four of them. He nodded and said, "Yes, I made a deal with a Dragon Palace expert to spare Old Chang's life. The condition is that the Dragon Palace withdraws."    

Hearing that, the four of them looked at each other and made up their minds.    

In their opinion, it was not worth it to exchange Old Chang's life for the temporary withdrawal of the Dragon Palace army.    

Old Chang was a true immortal-level expert. He did not hesitate to risk his life to break the formation on the Heavenly Sea Island and cause a lot of casualties. It was not easy for him to be heavily injured and on the verge of death. This was the only opportunity to kill him. He had missed it.    

It was a pity.    

However, since it was Chen Xiao's decision, the four of them would not have any objections.    

On the other hand, Gu Feng was a little curious and asked, "Could it be the legendary master of the Dragon Palace, Ao Xi?"    

Chen Xiao laughed in disdain and said, "Ao Xi is just a mere Ao Xi. Is he worthy?"    

His guess was denied. Gu Feng was stunned at first, but then he was shocked and opened his mouth wide.    

For a moment, he had a more terrifying guess in his mind.    

"This..."    

"Hiss."    

Fu Xue and the others couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air when they saw that. They all widened their eyes.    

Since the Dragon Palace expert who could speak to Chen Xiao and negotiate with him was not Ao Xi, then there was another Dragon Palace expert.    

As a result, the balance of the battle force was broken. This was too dangerous for the Heavenly Sea Island.    

It was no wonder that Chen Xiao would agree to his request and spare Old Chang's life.    

...    

On the golden dragon ship of the Dragon Palace army.    

The Dragon Palace warriors who had just experienced a defeat were in low spirits.    

To them, this was simply a terrifying nightmare. They had lost too much.    

First, Chen Xiao had used his Soul Seizing Sword to kill half of the rune cannons and the Dragon Palace warriors on the ship. They were also destroyed in the explosion.    

In addition, they could only retreat in defeat after seeing Old Chang break through the Heavenly Sea Island's array. It was too depressing.    

It was clearly the best opportunity to counterattack. They could only watch and do nothing.    

Such an encounter made the Dragon Palace warriors, who had always been violent and wild, extremely angry.    

"Why did we retreat? Why? Why?"    

Some of the warriors of the Sea Race roared angrily, unwilling to accept this.    

"Yeah, why did we retreat? The Heavenly Sea Island's array has been broken. We only need to charge and we can kill all of them."    

"We must kill our way back. We must take revenge. My brother just died in the hands of a human. I want to avenge him personally."    

"How unwilling. We were just a little bit away."    

Many of the warriors of the Dragon Palace complained in low voices, venting the dissatisfaction in their hearts.    

There were quite a number of voices like this, and almost all of the surviving Dragon Palace warriors had heard it.    

Many of the Dragon Palace warriors did not even bother to hide it, and they started cursing loudly, and even their voices were filled with dissatisfaction towards the Dragon Palace royalty.    

Gradually, these dissatisfied voices started to spread, and it naturally reached Ao Xi, who was on the golden dragon ship.    

After Ao Xi heard this, his face was as dark as a bottomless abyss, and it was impossible to tell that he was angry.    

On the other hand, when the several Dragon Palace royal experts heard this, they were incomparably furious, and some of them even stood out.    

“Palace Master, the little fellows below are ignorant, and they are spouting nonsense and disturbing the morale of the army. I will go and teach them a lesson, and let them remember this lesson for the rest of their lives.”    

As he spoke, this royal expert turned around and was about to go and carry out his orders.    

After he saw this scene, Ao Xi could only sigh, and he stopped him. He said, “It’s fine, let them speak. They can speak however they want. After all, we have lost this battle, and we have to let them vent their anger. It’s fine to scold them a few times, but if they hold it in their hearts for too long, it might end up being a bad thing.”    

“Palace Master is so magnanimous. Since it’s like this, then let them speak.”    

The royal expert heaved a sigh of relief and replied.    

Actually, the reason why he said these words earlier was because he was trying to probe Ao Xi’s intentions. He pretended to punish the Dragon Palace warriors below, but in actuality, he was trying to probe Ao Xi’s intentions.
