All the major forces were secretly shocked.
The black-robed swordsman was a disciple of the Demonic Mountain and was almost invincible among the younger generation.
He even swept through everything from the small border city to the front of the military palace, defeating all the enemies along the way.
He wanted to use the sword in his hand to let Fang Chen know how stupid he was to have rejected the Demonic Mountain.
The black-robed swordsman's actions caused a huge commotion.
Therefore, all the forces were secretly paying attention.
Who would have thought that the Military Palace's Commander-in-Chief was so powerful that he almost crushed the black-robed swordsman.
Whoosh!
Everyone gasped and quickly retreated for fear of angering the Military Palace's Commander-in-Chief.
When they saw Fang Chen looking at them, they were even more frightened.
"Let's go."
They had no time to be shocked. They left the Military Palace as fast as they could.
"The Commander-in-Chief …?"
It was too shocking.
Everyone in the Military Palace was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Outside the Military Palace, the violent wind gradually dissipated and the world returned to normal. The remaining aura in the void meant that a shocking battle had just broken out here.
"I have only inherited the legacy of Senior Pluto and cultivated the Invincible Pluto King's Body. It is already so powerful. How powerful will the Invincible Pluto King's Body be when it is perfected?"
Fang Chen put away the Spirit-slayer Sword and looked at the black-robed swordsman's sleeves. He was unperturbed.
The only thing that made him sigh was that the Invincible Pluto King's Body was too powerful and there were endless possibilities.
After Fang Chen returned to the Commander-in-Chief's residence.
Everyone rushed out and came to the place where the black-robed swordsman died.
They glanced at the sword mark on the black-robed swordsman's neck and then looked at each other. They were all shocked.
"The Commander-in-Chief's attainments in swordsmanship are really too strong," someone exclaimed.
"Yes, this is the disciple of the Demonic Mountain. He is the best at swordsmanship but he was killed by the Commander-in-Chief with a single strike."
"Humph, after this battle, the other eight palaces won't dare to bully our Military Palace."
Thinking of this, everyone's faces revealed smiles.
Of course, there were also some who were worried about the Demonic Mountain.
"Everyone, the Demonic Mountain will find out about this sooner or later."
The Black General said in a low voice.
"You should know very well what kind of person the Demonic Mountain Exalted is. Once he finds out that his personal disciple was killed by someone who once rejected him in public, what kind of consequences will there be?"
Needless to say, the Demonic Mountain Venerate would definitely be enraged and would massacre the military palace.
Everyone exchanged glances.
From their eyes, he could see the fear they had towards the Demonic Mountain Reverend.
Not to mention them, even Duke Xiaoyao would have to give face to the Demonic Mountain Exalted, let alone them.
"With the Marquis around, the Demonic Mountain Venerable shouldn't go so far as to massacre the Military Palace. However, he will definitely kill the Commander at all costs."
"It wasn't easy for our palace to get on the right track. We can't afford any more trouble."
"Yes, it's best to report this matter to the Marquis and let him decide."
…
The news of Demonic Mountain Exalt's personal disciple's death spread out very quickly.
For a moment, all the major forces in the vast Carefree Mansion were shocked.
The other eight palaces were especially shocked.
The weak warrior in their eyes had actually slain Empyrean Fiend Mountain's disciple.
This made them reevaluate Lin Chen.
Moon Palace, secret realm.
"Elder Yun."
Yue Heng brought some Saint Realm disciples who were still in a daze to the secret realm where Elder Yun was hiding.
Whoosh!
In the darkness, Elder Yun's ferocious eyes suddenly opened. He waved his hand and the Saint Realm disciples were sucked to Elder Yun's side without any resistance.
After that.
He greedily looked at the food and finally opened his mouth to devour them.
Whoosh!
After a while, Elder Yun finally finished digesting the food.
He was satisfied with Yue Heng's performance. "Speak, what's the matter?"
"Elder Yun, do you still remember Lin Chen?"
"Oh?
The Military Palace's Commander who was lucky enough to survive the Demonic Pool? "Elder Yun asked.
Yue Heng nodded and continued, "Not long ago, the Demonic Mountain Venerate's disciple challenged the Military Palace but was killed by Lin Chen. I don't think the Demonic Mountain Venerate will let this matter rest."
"Hmm?"
Elder Yun was a little surprised, but he soon understood.
To be able to survive the Demonic Pool and kill the Demonic Mountain Venerate's personal disciple was not a big deal.
"You want me to secretly stop Duke Xiaoyao?"
Elder Yun guessed the purpose of Yue Heng's visit.
"Duke Xiaoyao values Lin Chen a lot. According to my speculation, he wants to train Lin Chen and send him to the four branches.
Therefore, this time, when the Demonic Mountain Venerate attacks, he will definitely take action. I want to ask Elder Yun to secretly stop Duke Xiaoyao so that he can't stop the Demonic Mountain Venerate. "
After Elder Yun heard this, he laughed.
"Yue Heng, Yue Heng, where did your heroic spirit go?
Now, you are forced to such a state by a weak Saint Emperor? "
In order to kill Lin Chen, Elder Yun did not hesitate to ask him to secretly stop Duke Xiaoyao?
Yue Heng was a little anxious when he heard this.
However, Elder Yun changed the topic and said coldly, "I once owed the Demonic Mountain Venerate a favor and I have yet to return it. Now, the person he wants to kill is someone I don't like. Moreover, I can use this opportunity to weaken the power of Duke Xiaoyao. I can give it a try."
Hearing this.
Yue Heng was secretly happy.
As long as Elder Yun secretly stopped Duke Xiaoyao.
The Demonic Mountain Venerate would definitely be able to kill Lin Chen in an extremely short period of time.
"Alright, you can leave first. After the Nine Palaces Grand Competition, I will take action." Elder Yun said calmly.
"Thank you, Elder Yun." Yue Heng kept bowing.
…
In fact, everyone had expected this.
The death of the Demonic Mountain Venerate's disciple would cause a huge storm.
Not long after.
The quiet Duke Xiaoyao's territory was suddenly shaken.
The Demonic Mountain Venerate, who was far away in another territory, was infuriated when he heard the news. He destroyed a city with a kick.
Moreover.
He had already said that Lin Chen had to die. No one would be able to save him even if they went to heaven or to hell.
What he meant was.
Even if Duke Xiaoyao protected him, it would be useless.
Moreover, he also said that he would personally come to Duke Xiaoyao to take Lin Chen's life soon.
Once this news was out, Duke Xiaoyao's Mansion was in an uproar.
Even Duke Xiaoyao had a frown on his face.
He had only been in seclusion for a short while and Lin Chen had already caused such a huge commotion.
However, no matter what, he was still the Duke of Duke Xiaoyao. Lin Chen was the younger generation that he thought highly of and was prepared to send to the four branches.
He must not be killed by the Demonic Mountain Venerate.
Immediately, he made his stance clear.
"Lin Chen is the commander of the Military Palace. He is my right-hand man. What he did did did not violate any rules. If anyone uses this as an excuse to provoke us, Duke Xiaoyao will not be a pushover."
The two experts spoke across the air.
"Duke Xiaoyao, you dare to stop me?"
The Demonic Mountain Venerate challenged across the air, his killing intent soaring to the sky. "It's useless. You can't stop me from killing the person I want to kill."
