An audience with Duke Xiaoyao.
When the messenger brought Fang Chen to the mansion, Xiao He and Ye Long were already there.
Obviously, Ye Long was already with Xiao He.
He glanced at Fang Chen but did not bow.
After all, he was now the deputy commander of the Carefree Army, and Fang Chen was the commander, his direct superior.
He was using his power to bully others.
"Ye Long."
The messenger said coldly.
"Why don't you bow to the commander?"
Just as Ye Long was about to speak, Xiao He spoke.
"Uncle Liu, you haven't met the Duke yet. Lin Chen's position as the commander is unworthy of his title. It's only right that Ye Long doesn't bow to him," Xiao He said.
Ye Long nodded in agreement.
Fang Chen didn't care about this.
His purpose of coming here was to obtain the extremely dense Demon-Devouring Bloodline.
He wasn't fighting for power with Ye Long and the others.
"The Duke summons you."
The butler called out.
"Don't talk so much after you go in. Just answer whatever the Duke asks you," the messenger said in a low voice.
After a while, Fang Chen and the other two entered the main hall.
In the main hall.
As soon as they entered, they felt extremely oppressed.
This aura was familiar.
On the throne at the top, there was an old man in plain clothes. If someone didn't know him, they would think that he was a sickly old man.
However.
He was the famous Duke Xiaoyao.
He was the right-hand man of the Demon-Devouring Clan and was in charge of the territory of the Xiaoyao Palace.
"Greetings, Duke."
The three bowed slightly.
Xiaoyao Hou stared at the three of them. His cloudy eyes seemed to be able to see through them.
Even Fang Chen's heart tightened.
But soon, he felt relieved.
The Supreme Master had personally opened the Reincarnation Passage and helped him to be reborn in the Origin World.
This was a plan that many top giants of the Chaotic Realm had painstakingly planned for countless years. How could a mere Duke Xiaoyao discover him?
"Huh?"
When Duke Xiaoyao saw Fang Chen, he exclaimed softly.
Obviously, he didn't expect that someone who could enter the top three of the overall selection hadn't even activated the Demon-Devouring Bloodline.
He asked.
"You're from the Thousand Autumns City?"
Fang Chen nodded. Xiaoyao Hou looked at him with a serious expression.
Xiao He and Ye Long were filled with resentment.
Lin Chen had actually stolen their limelight.
"Xiao He, as a disciple of the Xiao Clan, you have countless resources for cultivation. I am very happy that you were able to get first place. From today onwards, you will be the 38th disciple of Deputy Xiao Yao."
"Thank you, Master."
Xiao He knelt down with a thud, extremely agitated.
The Xiao Family was a huge family, and every disciple dreamed of becoming a disciple of Xiao Yao Hou.
And now, Xiao He had finally succeeded.
"Alright, you can leave now."
Xiaoyao Hou waved his hand, and Xiao He left the hall.
"Lin Chen, as second place in the selection, I bestow upon you the Commander's Golden Seal. From now on, you will be in charge of the Carefree Army. I hope you will not disappoint me."
Fang Chen put away the commander-in-chief's golden seal.
After that, Duke Xiaoyao bestowed the Deputy Commander-in-Chief Golden Seal to Ye Long.
When the two were about to leave, Xiaoyao Hou called out to Lin Chen.
"Lin Chen, you stay."
Ye Long's face was filled with envy, and his eyes were filled with jealousy.
"Do you have any orders for me to stay?"
Fang Chen asked.
"I have investigated your identity. You used to be an ordinary rogue cultivator in the Thousand Autumns City. Although your potential is not bad, you should not have grown to this extent."
Xiaoyao Hou said meaningfully.
"Not long ago, there was a strange phenomenon in the Thousand Autumns City, the Nine Year Snow."
At this point, Xiaoyao Hou's expression became more serious.
"I suspect that there is a relic of an expert. That is why I sent a messenger to select geniuses."
Lin Chen's growth did not conform to common sense.
It was suspicious.
"Can you tell me what kind of inheritance you have obtained?"
Fang Chen was stunned and quickly thought about it.
Finally, he raised his finger and condensed his Qi into a sword.
Swoosh!
A dazzling sword light danced in the void, emitting a shocking power.
Even Duke Xiaoyao was quite shocked.
"This …"
Xiaoyao Hou was shocked. "What an exquisite sword technique. This is definitely not a secret technique of the Devouring Demon Clan."
Could it be …
Xiaoyao Hou thought of a possibility.
"A sword technique from the Chaotic Realm?"
He was almost certain that this sword technique must have come from the Chaotic Realm.
He stared at Fang Chen.
"This is the inheritance you have obtained?"
Fang Chen nodded.
"The Thousand Autumns City is very close to the Chaotic Battlefield. At that time, I was training in the Thousand Autumns Mountain Range. Suddenly, a dazzling sword light burst from the distant sky."
"I wanted to dodge, but my body was out of control. I was pierced by the sword light and then fainted."
"When I woke up, the chant of this sword technique was already engraved in my mind."
Xiaoyao Hou nodded.
"This sword technique is very mysterious. If you can comprehend it, it is possible for you to become an Invincible Sage."
Xiaoyao Hou did not suspect that Fang Chen was from the Chaotic Realm.
After all, he had never come into contact with reincarnation. Therefore, he did not know.
In the past, there had been inheritances from the Chaotic Battlefield from the Chaotic Realm.
"Alright, you may leave."
Xiaoyao Hou rolled his eyes and said, "Cultivate well. When you step into the Holy Emperor Realm, I will give you a drop of Demon Devouring Blood to help you activate your bloodline."
Hearing this, Fang Chen was stunned.
Buzz!
Xiaoyao Hou raised his palm and a drop of blood appeared.
This drop of blood contained a strong Demon Devouring Aura.
"This is a drop of blood that I condensed with my own blood. I originally wanted to give it to my son, but unfortunately …"
Fang Chen's heart skipped a beat.
The son that Xiaoyao Hou mentioned should be Xiao Mu, who he killed.
"You may leave."
After Fang Chen left, the messenger walked in.
"Lord," the messenger said.
Xiaoyao Hou grinned and kept the drop of blood.
"Ever since Mu 'er died, I have been thinking of ways to destroy the trash in the Sinners' Land. Now, after seeing Lin Chen, I have an idea."
It turned out.
Lin Chen had obtained the inheritance of the Chaotic Realm's sword technique and did not activate his Demon Devouring Bloodline.
Xiaoyao Hou came up with a plan.
When Lin Chen's strength grew to a certain level, he would quietly send him to the Chaotic Realm and let him hide and secretly kill the living beings in the Chaotic Realm.
When the time was right, he would kill them all.
"Is it reliable?"
The messenger asked.
"Everything is under control."
Xiaoyao Hou probably never dreamed of it.
The Lin Chen that he wanted to use was the person who killed his son.
Moreover, the purpose of coming here was to find the Demon Devouring Bloodline and completely destroy the Demon Devouring Clan.
On the way back, Fang Chen was also deep in thought.
He was worried that Xiaoyao Hou would discover his identity.
"I don't think so."
He deliberately said that he had obtained the inheritance of the sword technique so that he could clear his name.
Otherwise, it would make Xiaoyao Hou suspicious.
"I have to improve my cultivation as soon as possible."
When he stepped into the Holy Emperor Realm, he would be able to obtain a drop of Xiaoyao Hou's blood. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
At this moment.
"Isn't this the Commander?"
Ye Long blocked Fang Chen's way.
"What's the matter?"
Ye Long narrowed his eyes. "I say, Commander, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?"
Fang Chen frowned. "If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out of my way."
Hmph!
Ye Long snorted coldly. "Do you think that you can do whatever you want just because you are the Commander?"
He took out a token from his bosom.
