Peerless War God

"Oh? Are you saying that the Dragon Palace has chosen a new king, and it is no longer the previous Ao Xi?"    

Chen Xiao opened his eyes and asked in surprise.    

Qin Daoyuan nodded and replied, "Yes, according to the spies we planted in the Dragon Palace, it is indeed the case. There was an internal conflict between Ao Yu and Ao Xi in the Dragon Palace's Golden Hall. In the end, Ao Yu was the one who laughed the last."    

"Ao Yu." Chen Xiao thought about it and couldn't help but recall the scene when he fought with Ao Yu. He said, "Ao Yu is a very courageous guy. I never thought that he would actually dare to cause an internal conflict and overthrow Ao Xi. It's a bit interesting. How are the casualties?"    

"Quite a number of people died or were injured in the chaotic battle. Even many Tribulation Transcenders of the Dragon Clan died in the battle. It's just that there has been no news of Ao Xi. We don't know whether he is alive or dead. Moreover, Ao Yu was not injured."    

Qin Daoyuan replied.    

Chen Xiao chuckled and said, "Now that you mention it, it is even more interesting. It seems that Ao Xi and Ao Yu have reached some sort of agreement and completed the transition of power."    

Qin Daoyuan agreed and nodded. He said, "Yes, I think so too. It's just that this isn't a good thing for us."    

Chen Xiao said with an indifferent face, "Don't worry. We will deal with it when the time comes. It's more important to do our own things. As for the others, we can't care about them."    

"Yes." Qin Daoyuan nodded.    

"There is more. After Ao Yu ascended to the new throne, what did he do?" Chen Xiao asked again.    

This was what he cared about the most.    

If the Dragon Palace continued to rot like this, he would not be worried anymore.    

However, since Ao Yu dared to overthrow Ao Xi, he would definitely make a change if he took the lead.    

Hearing this, a hint of worry flashed across Qin Daoyuan's eyes as he said, "After Ao Yu took charge, the first thing he did was to abolish the preferential treatment and privileges of the previous generation of Dragon Palace Royal Clans. He emphasized on fairness, and he even tied status and treatment to battle achievements. The higher the battle achievements, the more benefits the Dragon Clan and Sea Clan would receive. They would treat everyone equally. It seems that this Ao Yu is really determined to change. To us, he is a huge threat."    

Qin Daoyuan's worry was not unreasonable. If Ao Yu really made a change and the Dragon Palace rose again, it would be a huge threat to the Purple Cloud City.    

Chen Xiao, however, did not think much of it and said, "Your idea is good, but it's too late."    

"Too late, Chen Xiao, what do you mean?"    

Qin Daoyuan was stunned for a moment and asked.    

"It's too late. The Dragon Palace is already rotten beyond repair. If we want to revive it, we can only do so by tempering it with blood and fire."    

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous light.    

Hearing this, Qin Daoyuan was shocked, "Are you saying that the Dragon Palace will launch a counterattack under Ao Yu's lead?"    

Chen Xiao sighed and said, "I hope my guess is wrong, but I'm afraid that it will be true."    

Qin Daoyuan's face was filled with shock as he said, "If the Dragon Palace army really comes back, then our great formation is far from being repaired. Won't we be in danger?"    

Chen Xiao's eyes were filled with worry. After thinking for a moment, he made a decision.    

"It seems that we have to prepare for the worst. The great formation will not be repaired in a short period of time. We have to think of other methods."    

"What other methods? Do you want me to pass down the order to prepare for battle?"    

Qin Daoyuan asked.    

Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "There is no need. There are no signs of counterattack at all. The atmosphere is very tense. The formation needs to be repaired, but there is no need to rush it like before."    

Qin Daoyuan understood and nodded. "Alright, I'll do it."    

"En."    

Qin Daoyuan turned around and left.    

Standing there, Chen Xiao first looked at the Ten Thousand Demon Vine and asked, "Hiro, how much longer will it take for you to recover?"    

"I'm almost recovered. I can fight now. Why? Are you going to fight now?"    

Hiro popped his head out and asked curiously.    

"Not so fast, but it's better to be prepared. How come you recover so fast? It's much faster than me."    

Chen Xiao said enviously.    

Xiloh's eyes were filled with pride and arrogance as he said, "Of course, our Planting Spirits are so powerful, unlike you humans, who are too weak. As long as you give me more blood, I can recover even faster."    

Chen Xiao's face darkened, and he was speechless. He said, "All that I can find for you is here. There is no more blood. Now, what we should worry about is the counterattack of the Dragon Palace."    

Xiloh immediately became excited and said excitedly, "Oh, the Dragon Palace is going to counterattack. Haha, in this way, we will have more blood. Chen Xiao, don't be afraid."    

Xiloh was naturally not afraid. In his opinion, following Chen Xiao to protect himself was enough.    

Even if Tianhai Island lost this battle, he and Chen Xiao would be fine. There was no problem in saving their lives.    

Chen Xiao's face was solemn as he said, "Don't worry, I will fight to the end."    

"En, I believe in you."    

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.    

At this time, four sounds of breaking through the air came, followed by four figures landing outside of the Cloud Pavilion one after another.    

The ones who came were Fu Xue, Zuo Zhao, and the Gu siblings.    

"Captain, you are looking for us?" Fu Xue went up and asked.    

Zuo Zhao was carefree, and his body was full of vigor and energy. He said, "Captain, if you have something to say, just say it."    

On the other hand, Gu Lanyue was quite sharp, and she noticed that there was an unusual atmosphere.    

"Captain, could it be that something happened on the Dragon Palace's side?"    

"What can happen to the Dragon Palace?" Gu Feng asked curiously.    

Chen Xiao's face was calm as he said, "It's not a big deal. If I'm not wrong, the Dragon Palace's counterattack should be coming soon."    

"This..."    

"What?"    

The moment he said that, the four of them changed their expressions in shock.    

Fu Xue's face was filled with worry and disbelief. She said, "Captain, is this true?"    

"It's true," Chen Xiao said.    

"If the Dragon Palace really comes back, we have to prepare for battle," Fu Xue said in a deep voice.    

"That's right, captain. Let everyone prepare for battle and prepare to face the enemy. We must be well-prepared."    

Zuo Zhao agreed. He also looked anxious.    

Gu Lan Yue and Gu Feng also looked at Chen Xiao. They did not say much and just waited for Chen Xiao to say something.    

Chen Xiao was not in a hurry. He said, "Don't worry. What we should be worried about now is the Dragon Palace, not us. We just have to wait for them."    

"This..."    

The four of them looked at each other. They did not know what Chen Xiao was thinking.    

Chen Xiao comforted them again and said, "Alright, don't think about it too much. We will deal with them when the time comes. The four of you stay here and recuperate. I can also give you some pointers at any time."    

"Yes."    

"Yes, captain."    

The four of them heaved a sigh of relief and replied in unison.    

Since Chen Xiao had said so, they could relax.
