Red Cloud Venerable’s strength was beyond everyone’s expectation.
Even those hiding in the bronze cauldron were all freaked out. Not to mention those masked men.
“All Sovereign Souls are Martial Sovereigns who went through a ko successfully. Red Cloud Venerable only failed when she was going for Divine King. This ko was naturally easy for her.”
Jiang Chen knew the details which others did not know.
It was obviously a big mistake that the Three Great Forces had chosen to attack while Xiao Nuo was going through a ko.
In Dragon Tiger Mountain, two sisters were running in panic. Although they had no idea where they could go hiding, they knew by intuition that they should stay away from the nine peaks, the farther, the better.
They were Princess Diaoyang and Princess Ke’er. They joined Ling Long Celestial Palace before the open house.
They had hesitated, feeling the challenge Ling Long Celestial Palace was facing was too huge.
However, in such a critical period, no one thought the Three Great Forces would pick a fight between themselves.
But to everyone’s surprise, the masked men suddenly came this day. There had been no sign of their arrival.
Fortunately, they were only small characters. No one was chasing them. But there were a few times the remaining power of the energies almost killed them.
“Elder sister!”
Ke’er suddenly found something incredible. She hurried to stop her elder sister, who was running ahead.
A masked man was flying at high-speed overhead, trying to leave Dragon Tiger Mountain. He looked awkward.
However, a ko thunder fell. It hit his head.
“I’m not convinced!”
He shouted, releasing his strength desperately. It started a big explosion. Thunder fire fell like raindrops.
The two sisters looked desperate. They were right under the rain of thunder fire. There was nowhere to hide, and they surely could not resist it.
They were very unlucky.
However, at this moment, the two sisters were shrouded in a sucking force.
Before they knew what had happened, they felt so dizzy that the world before them was spinning. They came into a closed space where was packed with people.
Taking a closer look, they found all of those people were from the celestial palace.
“Jiang Chen!”
They were pleasantly surprised to see who had saved them.
“Younger sister, you should call him vice leader!”
Diaoyang turned pale when she had heard her younger sister call Jiang Chen by his name directly. She hurried to wink at the latter.
It was not like the first time when she saw Jiang Chen. At the moment, she did not dare not show respect to him.
They were quite sad when saying goodbye to Jiang Chen, but when they arrived at Ling Long Celestial Palace, they found Jiang Chen had been the vice leader here.
Later, Jiang Chen created a record in the Sword House and defeated Gu Chuan and Gu He on the open house day. They witnessed all this.
It was exactly because Jiang Chen was too extraordinary that they did not dare catch up with him rashly.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Jiang Chen smiled at Ke’er, who was in a panic. He did not care about the title at all.
Ke’er felt relieved. She showed a sweet smile. Despite being vice leader, Jiang Chen was not putting on airs at all.
Outside, the masked men either died or fled.
Only a few key members were still resisting Human Emperor Bell.
They had given up the idea of getting rid of Red Cloud Venerable. All they wanted was to take Human Emperor Bell back. Otherwise, the loss would be too great.
However, seeing another ko of thunder fall, they were as pale as a sheet.
Without a doubt, this ko thunder was Red Cloud Venerable’s weapon to deal with them as well.
If they did not leave immediately, they could die here. They did not have the time to think about Human Emperor Bell.
“Let’s go!”
The key members made a quick decision. They injected strong energy into Human Emperor Bell.
Human Emperor Bell started to shake continuously as if it were high. The short and loud bell tone kept coming.
People aside, there were quite a few explosions in Dragon Tiger Mountain. The mountain had been greatly devastated by the bell tone.
If this went on, Human Emperor Bell would destroy itself, but before that, it would inflict terrible damages.
The bronze cauldron was in the mountain. The light supported by the Black Yellow Gas was dimming.
Throwing caution to the wind, Jiang Chen steered the bronze cauldron away from the nine peaks.
Human Emperor Bell was shaking more and more violently. The shaking even created shadows, as if someone was tolling it ceaselessly.
The surface of the bell cracked. Dreadful energy went out of control like a mustang that had got rid of the reign.
The masked men took the chance to retreat decisively.
Over there, Red Cloud Venerable clutched. Human Emperor Bell flew towards her. The bell tone quieted down gradually as it approached her.
“What? She can even subdue Human Emperor Bell?”
The masked men, who had run out of the Dragon Tiger Mountain, were all extremely shocked. They had kind of seen how powerful a Martial Sovereign was.
“If the Three Great Forces don’t give me any explanation in one day, I’ll visit you one by one.”
All of a sudden, the masked men heard Red Cloud Venerable’s serious voice coming from the Main Peak.
Knowing that they had failed this day, they left with frustration and disgrace.
On the other side, the turmoil in the Heavenly Palace had been suppressed, too.
The mysterious attackers of the Elixir Mountain were all killed by the Divine Tree of Creatures. Those who attacked the Jiangs and the Gaos were also eliminated by Azure Demon and others.
However, people found Jiang Chen and Wu Ming, who were in charge of the place, were not there when they had returned to the Cloud Reaching Hall of the Heavenly Palace.
“We were enticed out! Today’s attack was to cover the killer so that he could act!”
Gazing at the Devil Slaughter Tower still spinning in the air, plus the electricity remaining in the air, Azure Demon guessed what had happened.
“The killer made it, but he died, too.”
“And they wouldn’t know they only killed a practicing body.”
Azure Demon could not help but burst out laughing.
Even the black dragon was swaying its body, gloating.
They just could not help it. After all, the enemy had tried so hard and lost so much, but it turned out they only killed a practicing body.
“This Jiang Chen is very mean.”
At the thought of the possible reaction of the hidden hand after learning the truth, the man and the dragon just could not stop laughing.
“By the way, where is his master?”
Azure Demon found there was something wrong soon.
He was loyal to Jiang Chen instead of the Heavenly Palace, so he did not have to call Wu Ming vice leader.
“Find him. No one is in charge of the Heavenly Palace.”
Then the Heavenly Palace sent people to look for Wu Ming. After searching, they found Wu Ming trapped by a ward in a mountain in Heavenly Defense Field.
According to Wu Ming, he found someone suspicious a few days ago when he was working at the Cloud Reaching Hall. He followed the man. In the end, it turned out to be a scheme. The enemy lured him out intentionally.
Wu Ming was after all the former lord of the Sword Pavilion. He certainly would not be killed easily.
If that really happened, the Heavenly Palace would be alarmed.
So, that man trapped Wu Ming here with a ward and sucked his blood.
“Come on! Jiang Chen is in danger!”
Wu Ming asked about his apprentice as soon as he got out of danger, regardless of his own injuries.
“It was his practicing body?”
The black dragon and Azure Demon explained to him what had happened. Wu Ming opened his eyes wide because of surprise. After a while, he said with a bitter smile, “That guy!”
He and others also thought the one in the Heavenly Palace was Jiang Chen’s true body, and the one taking adventures in the Realm of Divine Martial Arts was his practicing body. However, it was the opposite.
Since Wu Ming had been back, the Heavenly Palace had someone managing things again, and the order was hence recovered very soon. It did not take them long to figure out the identity of this day’s attacker.
They were not from the Realm of Divine Martial Arts. They were the forces from the Seventh Realm who had a grudge with Jiang Chen. Manipulated by the Three Great Forces, they launched this attack.
“I’m wondering how the true body is going.”
Wu Ming knew the Heavenly Palace could not be the Three Great Forces’ only target. They must have attacked Ling Long Celestial Palace, too.
After sorting everything out, Wu Ming stayed alone at the Cloud Reaching Hall. He switched on the recording formation.
The fight between Jiang Chen and Blood Monster the Chameleon was played.
“My master wouldn’t treat me this way!”
Seeing Jiang Chen say that firmly, Wu Ming felt very soothed. Smiling, he said, “Great, young man. I’ve been helping you manage the Heavenly Palace day and night, and that’s totally worth it.”
