When they realized that only Chen Luoyang had returned and that Head Chief Yan Mingkong was nowhere to be seen, the expressions of the Elders Sect couldn’t help but change.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
Even the young and strong demonic sect experts had many guesses when they saw this.
Chen Luoyang secretly observed these people’s performance and had a better idea of what they were doing.
Not only did Yan Mingkong not return, he did not even send a message back.
It was as if he had completely disappeared.
Although it was hard to determine whether she was swept away by the blood light or was affected by it, she had to immediately find a secret place to recuperate.
However, the Vermillion Bird Palace Hall Chief had lost contact with the Demon Cult.
His family members were so shocked and uncertain. Clearly, they suspected that Yan Mingkong was dead.
Moreover, everyone was probably suspecting that he was the one who had killed the other party.
After the First Head and Li Yuanlong both suffered heavy losses, the Cult Master took advantage of them all.
When Chen Luoyang saw this, he pondered in his heart. At the same time, he maintained a calm expression on his face and turned a blind eye to everyone who was filled with questions.
His secretive look made everyone even more suspicious.
Someone from the Patriarch Sect wanted to ask, but he didn’t dare to open his mouth when he saw the dark light flashing in the Sect Leader’s eyes.
In the end, Third Elder Wang Mofeng asked,” From what the Saber Emperor said just now, Emperor Xia Li Yuanlong has already broken through to the fourteenth realm. His strength is extraordinary. It’s all thanks to you coming to Yuzhou personally that Li Yuanlong wouldn’t have escaped.
“Since I came to Yuzhou personally, he naturally has no other choice but to die like this.” Chen Luoyang said indifferently.
As for Yan Mingkong, he didn’t even mention him.
The hearts of the elders sank when they heard this.
After everyone bowed and left, they looked at each other with extremely solemn expressions.
Third Elder Wang MO Feng and Fourth Elder Chai Han exchanged a glance, then waved their hands to dismiss the others.
“Contact the First Chief as soon as possible.” When there were only the two of them left, Chai Han’s face was as dark as water.”The current situation is really…”
“The second batch of people has already been sent out,” Wang MO Feng sighed.
Chai Han was silent for a moment before asking, “You said…”
At this point, his voice stopped, and his eyes were filled with worry.
Wang Mofeng obviously knew what he was thinking and said softly, ” There’s no need to be so pessimistic. Judging from Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng’s reaction, the Hierarch probably doesn’t have any intention of making a move yet. He’s also pursuing to fight Saber Emperor in his best condition. Before that, he won’t easily cause any trouble. The First Head will also be prepared.
Chai Han looked up at the sky and sighed.
“Not bad.” Wang MO Feng sighed.
Chai Han thought for a while and said, “Inform Boss Xie and Second Brother Yan about the situation too.”.
“If the second batch of people still can’t find the First Chief, then tell them about the situation as soon as possible,” said Wang Mofeng.
The two elders looked at each other, their hearts heavy.
Right now, the Cult Master’s prestige was rising without end.
They had all gone their separate ways and were split up. Even the First Head had gone missing.
I really can’t live like this anymore…
The Crimson Dragon Imperial Carriage landed.
Chen Luoyang wasn’t sure how his subordinates were doing things when he was dealing with Ban Hongqing and Li Yuanlong.
But now, in the Xia Dynasty’s Imperial Palace, the main hall had completely disappeared, as if it had been completely wiped off the ground.
After the Crimson Dragon Sovereign Carriage landed, it replaced the main hall and became the center of the imperial city, and even the entire Luoyang City. “Reporting to Cult Master, most of the stubborn people in the city have been eliminated. The remaining people are willing to submit to the supreme-ruler Sect.” King Kong replied, ” Compared to the martial artists, the commoners are more afraid of us because they were deeply poisoned by the Xia Dynasty. However, no one dares to cause trouble. They are all like frightened quails. ‘
As the core area controlled by the Xia Dynasty, both the Southern Wasteland Demonic Sect and the Outsiders of the Northern Desert had a bad reputation.
It would be more polite to say that they were evil and evil people. Among the people, there was no lack of absurd rumors that the foreign tribes of the Northern Desert were all green-faced and fanged monsters.
In contrast, the Southern Wasteland Demon Territory was filled with evil and vicious demons.
This was within his expectations and Chen Luoyang wasn’t surprised.
There was no need to take such views seriously. As long as their demonic sect could take root here and continue to operate, the world would naturally know the absurdity of the previous rumors.
From the perspective of the governed, the Infernal domain was definitely not an ideal land filled with gold, but it was far from being a place where the people lived in poverty.
In the Central Plains and the Southern Wasteland, it would be difficult to compare who was more ruthless to the mortals and who was more considerate to the people.
Of course, in their respective promotions, they would definitely vilify each other.
Vajra chuckled and said, ” Cult Master’s aura can engulf the world. Everything in the Divine Boat Lands is naturally yours. The ignorant people in this city were almost blown up by Li Yuanlong. If it weren’t for Cult Master’s kindness, they would have gone down to follow Li Yuanlong.
“This city is not bad. It can catch my eye.” Chen Luoyang casually said, ” After we take control of the city, we won’t be in a hurry to expand outward. We’ll talk about it after the disciples from Lu Prefecture come over. ‘
“Yes, Cult Master, ” Vajra replied respectfully.
“Reporting to Cult Master, some people in this city want to see you. What do you think?” he asked.
Chen Luoyang turned his gaze over and looked at Vajra.
“Reporting to Cult Master, I guarantee that there won’t be any assassins. We’ve confirmed it several times, ” Jin Gang said hurriedly. ” They are sincere followers. However, one of them is a relative of the Xia Dynasty’s royal family. ‘ Chen Luoyang placed his hand on the table and tapped his index finger lightly on the table.
“Bring him up.”
Jin Gang heard this and quickly went down to get them.
After a while, a few people walked into the hall together.
Looking at the unfamiliar hall in front of them, their expressions were normal.
It was hard to say what they were thinking, but these people were clearly prepared. Their state of mind was calm and they didn’t show any emotion as they respectfully bowed to Chen Luoyang.
“Li Yuanlin greets Cult Master Chen. Long live Cult Master.” “Situ Qi greets Cult Master Chen. Long live Cult Master.”
“Yang Lian greets Cult Master Chen. Long live Cult Master.”
“Zhang Ming Ming greets Cult Master Chen. Long live Cult Master.” Chen Luoyang raised his seat high and looked at the four people below.
Some of the names sounded familiar.
He had been reading up on the books and letters in the Azure Dragon Hall. Now that he thought about it, he had seen some people’s names before.
As for the others, it didn’t matter if he didn’t have any impression of them.
Before Vajra brought his men in, he had already prepared a name list, and Chen Luoyang could see it at a glance.
Li Yuanlin was from the Great Xia Imperial Family, King Han. He was an expert from the Xia Imperial Family in the same generation as Li Yuanlong. However, he did not really manage much and had always been a prince of peace.
However, his cultivation was not low. He was a rare Martial King Realm Level 12 expert in the Xia Dynasty.
There were often rumors that this person was second only to Li Yuanlong in the Xia Dynasty’s Imperial Family.
It was no wonder that he had placed his love in the mountains and rivers. Otherwise, it would inevitably arouse Li Yuanlong’s suspicion.
However, after Li Yuanlong broke through to the 14th realm, this problem should no longer exist.
Of course, there was no need to discuss this now.
After Li Yuanlong’s death, King Han no longer needed to hide his strength.
However, to him, what to do next was still very important.
If he had too many ideas, the Demon Sect would not tolerate him either.
Situ Qi was the chief constable of the entire Six Fan School of the Great Xia Dynasty. He was in charge of all the detective agencies in the world. He had many gold-badge chief constables, silver-badge chief constables, prefecture chief constables, prefecture chief constables, prefecture chief constables, and bailiffs under him. He was the frontline for the Great Xia Dynasty to coordinate and govern the various powers of the Central Plains.
Of course, he would also have to deal with the middle and low-level disciples of the demonic sect or the alien races.
It was inevitable that both sides would be injured.
The other was Yang Lian, a middle-aged eunuch with a pale face and no beard.
He, Gao Zhen, who had previously gone to Moyu to spy and instigate a rebellion, and another chief eunuch, Chu Mu, were known as the three heads of the Xia Dynasty’s inner palace.
Previously, Gao Zhen had exposed his whereabouts in the Demon Territory and was pursued by the Demon Cult’s experts. He had already successfully captured him.
This Yang Lian came to surrender.
As for Chu Mu, it seemed like he wasn’t in the city before Chen Luoyang broke through.
Perhaps Li Yuanlong had already made arrangements for Chu Mu to prepare another path of retreat for him.
Unfortunately, he didn’t use it.
Li Yuanlin, Situ Qi, and Yang Lian were all Martial Kings.
Among the four of them, there was only Zhang Mingming left. His cultivation was only at the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. However, this person’s identity was worth pondering.
A relative of the royal family.
To be precise, it was more appropriate to call him uncle.
His younger sister entered the palace as a concubine, and the Zhang family rose again.
There were no Martial King experts in the family. According to the division of the Azure Dragon Hall, this family was considered a second-class force.
However, the Zhang Clan had a rather high status in the original Yujing City.
It was not only because of his status as a relative, but also because of this identity halo. Zhang Mingming himself was good at dancing and had a nimble mind, becoming a famous wealthy merchant in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Li Yuanlong himself was more or less behind them, and the Zhang Clan was equivalent to an imperial merchant.
Many rare treasures were bought by Zhang Ming Ming for Li Yuan Long.
Chen Luoyang looked at the four people below with interest.
“Speak.” His voice rang out.
The four of them looked at each other.
Chen Luoyang didn’t receive them individually. Instead, he gathered the four of them together.
However, since they had already made up their minds, they didn’t laugh at each other and didn’t look embarrassed.
In the end, the other three all made a polite gesture to King Han, Li Yuanlin,
who had the highest cultivation.
Li Yuanlin smiled at Situ Qi and the other two with a friendly attitude. He then turned to Chen Luoyang, who was on the stairs, and bowed again.
‘ Reporting to Cult Master Chen, I’ve been outside the Ancient Gods Clan for a long time. I hope to join the cult and serve the ancient supreme-rulers. I’ll sacrifice my life for Cult Master.
As he spoke, he bowed to Chen Luoyang..
