"Don’t be so nervous, I just wanted to say thank you."
Seeing Xiayuqing so nervous, Feng Wuchen grinned, his gaze sweeping over the departing Zhuchenxin.
Zhuchenxin, who had just stepped out of the great hall, happened to hear this sentence, and his old face turned even uglier, almost coughing up blood from anger.
The Martial Soul Holy Palace Great Elder’s old face sank; Feng Wuchen’s words were undoubtedly trying to sow discord.
It made it sound like Xiayuqing was helping the Dragon God Holy Temple.
In this way, the relationship between the Martial Soul Holy Palace and the Demon Clan might very well change.
Xiayuqing wasn’t stupid. He quickly realized something, his vicious gaze staring at Feng Wuchen like a venomous snake.
Although the Demon Clan had now colluded with the Martial Soul Holy Palace, once the old Clan Leader and Elder Wuji came out of seclusion, things would be very different.
"I didn’t help you with anything. What are you thanking me for?" Xiayuqing said darkly.
"Thank you for sending someone to report to the Pagoda Master. Otherwise, wouldn’t Limoyang have been wronged for nothing?" Feng Wuchen shrugged and said with a smile.
"Elder Chu, this Disciple of yours is really quite clever!" the Martial Soul Holy Palace Great Elder said in a deep voice.
Chu Tianshu said with a faint smile, "Thank you for the compliment. Disciples of the Dragon God Holy Temple are certainly not inferior to the Disciples of your Martial Soul Holy Palace."
Chu Tianshu was just that tough, not giving him face in the slightest.
"Humph!" The Martial Soul Holy Palace Great Elder gave a cold snort, then turned and left the great hall.
Xiayuqing also glared viciously at Feng Wuchen, then followed him out of the great hall.
Wuxianzi and Qingxuzi and the others were all wearing bitter, helpless smiles, not knowing what to say at all.
Although the Soul-Pillar Pagoda held considerable status and terrifying strength in the Holy Realm, they still did not dare to completely offend the Martial Soul Holy Palace and the Dragon God Holy Temple.
"Elder Chu, you should go back and rest first and make your preparations. The grand assembly will begin in one hour," Wuxianzi said.
"We’ve troubled the Pagoda Master and Elders," Chu Tianshu nodded, being very polite.
Wuxianzi said with a faint smile, "Elder Chu, you’re too polite."
Feng Wuchen and the other two, including Limoyang, clasped their fists respectfully, their manners impeccable.
"Though they’re all geniuses, by comparison, Xiayuqing and Zhumutian are indeed far too arrogant and conceited. Compared to Wuchen and Limoyang, they’re way behind," Qingxuzi said with a slight shake of his head.
"Especially that Wuchen, he hides very deeply. I, this Elder, cannot see through him. This kid should be of the Dragon God Clan," the Third Elder said.
"This Wuchen is probably not as simple as just being Elder Chu’s Disciple, and this is also our first time seeing him," Wuxianzi said gravely, his old face serious, apparently having some guesses.
...
Inside a palace.
"Hahaha!"
Limoyang, Zhao Wuya, and the other two burst into wild laughter, as if afraid others wouldn’t hear.
"Limoyang, kid, your mouth is really something. You even dragged your parents into it, and you dared to call the Dragon God Holy Temple a bunch of cowards," Feng Wuchen grinned.
"Supreme sir, all the major powers of the Holy Realm are extremely wary of our Dragon God Holy Temple. If I didn’t bring them up, we definitely wouldn’t have been able to cow the Pagoda Master and the others. Besides, Candle-Extinguishing Heavenly God Zhuchenxin from the Demon Clan and Nangong Xuan from the Martial Soul Holy Palace were also there; the Dragon Ancestor and the others are the strongest deterrence," Limoyang said happily with a laugh.
"If the Supreme sir hadn’t told us to act, we wouldn’t have dared to teach them a lesson," Zhao Wuya said with a smile.
"Supreme sir, when are you going to teach us how to refine Nitian Divine Pearls?" Limoyang quickly asked, his eyes burning with eagerness.
Feng Wuchen countered, "When did I ever say I was going to teach you?"
"Supreme sir, we just helped you teach Zhumutian and the others a lesson. I know you’re definitely very grateful but too embarrassed to bring it up, so I grudgingly took the initiative," Limoyang said with a shameless grin.
The corner of Feng Wuchen’s mouth twitched, and he straight-up kicked out.
Limoyang dodged by instinct.
"You dare dodge?" Feng Wuchen shouted harshly and went after him again.
"Supreme sir, I know I was wrong! Spare me!" Limoyang fled for his life at top speed.
"The Great Elder is coming!" Gefeng hurriedly whispered, and the three of them instantly became serious, looking very proper.
Chu Tianshu entered the hall, swept a glance at the three of them, and scolded angrily, "You three little brats are simply lawless!"
Obviously, as for what had just happened, Chu Tianshu did not believe Limoyang and the others at all; he had only been playing along.
Limoyang and the three had grown up under Chu Tianshu’s watch. How could he not know what kind of goods they were?
"Hehe, Great Elder, this was the Supreme sir’s idea," the fingers of the three, led by Limoyang, all pointed at Feng Wuchen at the first possible moment.
"Supreme sir?" Chu Tianshu was stunned.
Feng Wuchen shrugged and said with a smile, "Great Elder, calm your anger. You really can’t blame me for this. I just found them eyesores and had Limoyang and the others teach them a lesson. Who knew they’d hit so hard?"
"..." Limoyang and the other two ground their teeth in anger. They had agreed they’d shoulder it themselves, and now he was dumping it back on them.
"Great Elder, the Supreme sir said we were too soft the first time and had us hit them a second time. How would we dare disobey? We could only beat them half to death," Gefeng said quickly.
Limoyang and Zhao Wuya secretly gave him a thumbs up!
"These three cunning little brats!" The corner of Feng Wuchen’s mouth lifted slightly.
The three of them kept glancing sideways at Feng Wuchen. Seeing that evil grin, they couldn’t help but shiver.
Damn, we’re screwed.
"You should have just killed them, once and for all, and saved them the chance to get revenge! Stupid!" Chu Tianshu glared fiercely at the three of them, then turned to leave the hall.
Hearing this, Limoyang and the other two instantly widened their eyes, frozen stiff on the spot.
"The Great Elder is even more ruthless than me." Feng Wuchen was also a bit caught off guard.
The three Limoyang muttered in a daze, "Never would have guessed."
...
"Second Elder, we were really framed. We didn’t even get a chance to speak before they started hitting us!"
"Second Elder, it was that person with the Dragon God Seal at his brow who gave the order."
"They’re the villains who complained first!"
In another palace, Zhumutian and the other three were kneeling on the ground, their faces full of grievance and innocence.
"Dragon God Clan! This is bullying taken too far! You were played," Zhuchenxin’s old face was as dark as it could get.
Zhuchenxin naturally also knew they’d been set up by Feng Wuchen.
But given the situation at the time, Zhuchenxin had no room to refute.
"Second Elder, our injuries are severe. I’m afraid we won’t be able to participate in the Alchemist Grand Assembly," Candle-Extinguishing Heavenly God said through gritted teeth, extremely unwilling, already beginning to regret it in his heart.
If Zhuchenxin hadn’t told them to go teach Feng Wuchen a lesson, none of this would have happened.
The Alchemist Grand Assembly was about to begin, and Zhumutian and the others were heavily injured. Even with Elixirs to heal them, there was no way they’d fully recover.
Zhumutian and the others were already unable to participate in the Alchemist Grand Assembly.
"Humph! That may well be exactly their goal—to keep you from participating! They’re afraid they’ll lose to you!" Zhuchenxin said darkly in anger, icy killing intent spreading out.
"Second Elder, what do we do then? We’ve prepared for a whole year for this grand assembly. This is the best chance for me to prove myself to our people. I can’t accept this!" Zhumutian asked unwillingly.
