Military Palace, Commander-in-Chief's residence.
The military palace that used to be extremely quiet was now bustling with people these days.
The Palace Masters of the other eight palaces came to visit personally because they were interested in the three slots in Lin Chen's hands.
The matter of the Dragon Slaying Cave was of great importance. Even if they had some grudges, they still had to put aside their pride to come and beg Lin Chen.
"Commander-in-Chief."
The personal guard said, "The Eight Palace Commander-in-Chief are waiting outside to see you."
"I'm not free."
Fang Chen rejected directly.
In fact, he already had a candidate for the three slots in the Dragon Slaying Cave.
Other than himself, there were two other people who performed extremely well this time.
As for the other eight palaces, he didn't even consider it.
He even wanted to laugh. Yueheng had always been against him and even colluded with the Liu Clan to kill him. But now, he was putting aside his pride to beg him to give him a slot in the Dragon Slaying Cave.
"Alright, I will reject all of them."
Not long after, his personal bodyguard walked out.
"Everyone, the Commander-in-Chief is in seclusion and will not see anyone. If there is anything important, wait until the Commander-in-Chief comes out."
Seeing this, everyone's face twitched.
"Hmph, we have already given Lin Chen enough face by coming here personally. How dare he treat us like this?"
The person who spoke was from Yueheng's faction.
"That's right. Does he think that just because he got first place in the Nine Palace Tournament, the Military Palace can compete with the other palaces?"
Yueheng stood in front of everyone and said coldly, "Our status is the same as Lin Chen's. What right does he have to make us wait here?"
"Everyone, this is too much."
The personal guard said.
"Hmph, who do you think you are?"
Yueheng slapped the body of the personal guard and sent him flying.
"You …" The personal guard got up and stared at the Eight Palace Masters angrily.
"Hmph, this is a lesson. If you dare to make a fuss in front of me again, you can just kill yourself," Yueheng said coldly.
"Hehe …"
A ghostly laughter entered everyone's ears.
Then, Fang Chen suddenly appeared and looked at everyone with a smile.
"You came to my palace, wanted to see me, and even hit my personal bodyguard?" Fang Chen questioned the Eighth Palace Lord. "Is this your sincere request for an audience?"
He shook his head. He had long known that these people were up to no good.
Sure enough, a mere rejection was enough to arouse their killing intent.
"Lin Chen, since you're here, let's get straight to the point." Yue Heng spread his hands and said, "We're here for the quota of the Exterminating Dragon Cave."
"I'm sorry, the quota for the Cave of the Slaying Dragon seems to have nothing to do with you," Fang Chen said.
"Although you obtained first place in the Nine Palace Grand Competition, you should know the reason behind it. If it weren't for a spy from the Liu Clan infiltrating my Moon Palace, how could you have obtained first place?"
Yue Heng said shamelessly, "I don't want to say anything more. These three quotas originally belonged to the Moon Palace, but since the Military Palace has obtained them, I only have one request. Give the Moon Palace a quota of the Dragon Slaying Cave unconditionally."
He directly asked for a spot in the Dragon Slaying Cave.
Moreover, it was an unconditional demand.
This Yueheng was really arrogant and despotic.
"Alright, then I would also like to ask for something from Palace Master Yue Heng."
Fang Chen was not angry. Instead, he said with a smile.
"What is it?"
Hearing Fang Chen's agreement, Yue Heng was overjoyed. No matter what, the value of the quota for the Dragon Slaying Cave was greater than anything else.
As long as Fang Chen did not ask for it recklessly, he was willing to settle the matter peacefully.
After all, if this matter was brought to Xiaoyao Hou, he would be in the wrong.
"I would like to ask for the entire Moon Palace from Palace Master Yue Heng. What do you think?"
Fang Chen said, "With Palace Master Yue Heng's talent, it's only a matter of time before you join the four major branches. In the future, you will definitely leave Xiaoyao Manor and head to a higher stage. At that time, the Moon Palace will have no leader. Why don't you give it to me in advance? I can reluctantly help you manage the Moon Palace."
Boom!
A terrifying energy gushed out from Yue Heng's body. His pitch-black eyes stared fixedly at Lin Chen.
"Are you playing with me?"
He said coldly.
A terrifying killing intent swept across the land.
"Palace Master Yue Heng, how can you say that?
I'm thinking for you. "Fang Chen said calmly.
"Hmph."
Yue Heng was furious and struck out with his palm.
Crack!
Fang Chen easily dispelled the attack and said coldly, "Palace Master Yue Heng, I hope you can see the reality. This is the Military Palace. If you dare to attack here, you will be declaring war against my Moon Palace."
"I will report this to the Marquis."
Hearing this, Yue Heng's expression changed. In the end, he flung his sleeves and left fiercely.
"Kid, just you wait. You won't be arrogant for long."
Yue Heng originally wanted to use force to get a quota.
However, Fang Chen mentioned Xiaoyao Hou and Yue Heng was a little wary.
Moreover, he was also worried. The Demonic Mountain Reverend was about to arrive. Lin Chen's death was already set in stone.
When the time came.
He would personally write a letter to snatch the three quotas for the General Palace.
He believed that with Elder Yun's help, entering the Dragon Slaying Cave would not be a problem.
"Everyone, is there anything else?" After Yue Heng left, the others were obviously wary of Lin Chen.
"Hehe, Commander Lin Chen, you worry too much. We are just here to visit you."
Soon, everyone left.
"Lin Chen, come to me quickly."
Suddenly, Fang Chen heard Xiaoyao Hou's voice.
Soon, Fang Chen came to the main hall.
"We have investigated. Yue Heng betrayed Xiaoyao Manor. Not only did he collude with the Liu Family, but he also has connections with Tianyue Manor and Bright Lord Manor."
Xiaoyao Manor was very angry when he spoke.
"Moreover, there is a veteran expert behind him. The one who attacked you at the Devil's Pool was that veteran expert."
Xiaoyao Hou said, "However, I guess that he is severely injured and is hiding in the Moon Palace to recover."
Fang Chen narrowed his eyes. It was indeed the Moon Palace.
"The Demonic Mountain Reverend is coming. My purpose of asking you to come is to lure the snake out of its hole," Xiaoyao Hou continued.
"You have won the Nine Palaces Grand Competition and obtained the entry to the Dragon Slaying Cave. When the Demonic Mountain Reverend attacks you, the Moon Palace will definitely not be able to hold back. As long as they attack, I will be able to seize the opportunity to find the mysterious expert hiding in the Moon Palace."
"The only problem now is … if the plan to lure the snake out of its hole is successful, can you withstand the attack of the Demonic Mountain Reverend while I suppress the mysterious expert in the Moon Palace?"
"How long will it take?" Fang Chen asked.
"Three minutes is enough."
Three minutes was nothing to ordinary martial artists.
However, for an expert like the Demonic Mountain Reverend, it was enough to slaughter a city.
It was difficult for Fang Chen to withstand the attack of the Demonic Mountain Reverend for three minutes.
"I know that with your strength, it will be difficult for you to withstand it. I have already set up a formation around the Military Palace. With the help of the formation, you can explode with the power of a Ninth Level Saint for a short period of time."
Hearing this, Fang Chen's expression softened a little.
Although the plan to lure the snake out of its hole was to use him as bait.
However, with the help of the formation, he could explode with the power of a Ninth Level Saint. It was not impossible for him to withstand the Demonic Mountain Reverend.
"I can give it a try."
