Peerless War God

0Under the gazes of the cultivators, the Third Prince received the decree with a smile on his face. He tried his best to show a happy and excited expression.    

    

However, he was exceptionally calm in his heart. He had risked his life and almost died on the battlefield. In addition, so many Righteous Dao cultivators had died. Was he going to send them off with just a roll of cloth?    

    

In his heart, he was more or less dissatisfied and resentful. Of course, he did not dare to show it.    

    

“Thank you, Your Majesty,” the Third Prince said in a low voice. He cupped his hands toward Li Juechen with a respectful attitude.    

    

It was not only because the other party was a great general, but also because he was the strongest combat force of the royal family, a genuine Immortal Realm expert.    

    

If Li Juechen had not unintentionally inherited the position of the Divine Emperor, perhaps the current Divine Emperor would have passed the position to him a long time ago.    

    

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”    

    

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”    

    

Below, the Righteous Dao cultivators were also radiating with light. They felt honored. Putting aside the fame, the Divine Emperor’s reward was real.    

    

Sure enough, following the Third Prince had a promising future.    

    

The Third Prince’s heart was bright. Father, your decree came at the right time. You really have your ways.    

    

With this decree from the Divine Emperor, he wanted to continue to buy people’s hearts and even use the Evil Extermination as an excuse to recruit soldiers and buy horses. It was logical.    

    

Li Juechen nodded at the Third Prince. He had completed the procedure. He was even too lazy to open the decree and read it word by word. It was too boring.    

    

The fact that he had personally arrived was the greatest proof. Just this point was enough.    

    

He glanced at the Third Prince deeply and said, "Third Prince, you did well this time. Take care of yourself."    

    

"Yes, General." The Third Prince replied.    

    

Li Juechen did not say much. With a flash, he disappeared from everyone's sight.    

    

In the next moment, on the cloud, Chen Xiao and Li Juechen stood in the air, facing each other.    

    

Li Juechen's face was cold, and his eyes were bursting with a bright light. Sword intent surged, churning like a river. Suddenly, he grinned and said, "Heh, it's really you. I should have expected it. A hidden expert suddenly appeared, a powerful expert of Immortal Realm, and his strength is extraordinary. He has killed two Enlightened Beings of Evil Cult in a row. I don't believe it. If it was you, it would be possible for Chen Xiao of Purple Cloud City."    

    

Chen Xiao was expressionless. He narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at the other party. He was not sure what the other party's words meant.    

    

However, there was one thing that he was sure of. The other party had come with ill intentions. With just a glance, he had seen through his identity. Clearly, he had investigated him thoroughly before coming here.    

    

Seeing that the other party had exposed him, he did not deny it. He just said indifferently, "Li Juechen, the only Immortal Realm expert of the Li Dynasty. His strength is inferior to Li Zhan. Heh, he was injured before. He was ambushed by the Dark Shrine. Why? This time, the Third Prince is going to fight against the Evil Cult. To eradicate evil, you actually stood by the side. Are you afraid?"    

    

Li Juechen's eyes turned cold, and his gaze was extremely unfriendly as he stared at the other party.    

    

This sentence had touched his reverse scale.    

    

Back then, he had suffered a huge loss and was ambushed and attacked by a group of evil cultivators from the Dark Shrine. He had been seriously injured and was lucky enough to survive. The rest, especially the three great families' Patriarchs, had almost all been annihilated.    

    

This matter had caused a huge commotion in the Divine Dynasty, and it had even caused the Divine Emperor to be furious and order a thorough investigation.    

    

However, the Dark Shrine had concealed themselves too deeply. Even if the Divine Emperor had personally ordered it, he had not been able to find out the truth. For the sake of the Divine Dynasty's overall situation, he could only temporarily suppress it and continue to investigate in secret.    

    

Li Juechen viewed this matter as a great humiliation and had never taken the initiative to mention it. Chen Xiao was adding salt to the wound, and he did not have any scruples at all.    

    

Immediately, Li Juechen's eyes shot out a dangerous light as he said coldly, "You want to provoke me?"    

    

Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "No, I am only stating a fact. Is it the Dark Shrine or the evil sect that scared you to the point that you don't dare to make a move anymore?"    

    

Li Juechen forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and laughed angrily, "Junior, you have a lot of guts."    

    

Chen Xiao spread out his hands and said, "I have always had a lot of guts. Otherwise, I wouldn't have teamed up with the Third Prince and even killed two long life experts from the evil sect."    

    

Li Juechen did not deny his achievements. "Indeed, killing two long life experts from the evil sect. With your strength that has just broken through to the Immortal Realm, you can be proud of yourself. However, you have still underestimated the Dark Shrine's terror."    

    

As Li Juechen spoke, his tone was filled with gloominess.    

    

He really wanted to take revenge. Just like the Third Prince, he wanted to get revenge quickly. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it.    

    

The current dynasty was in a precarious situation. There were internal problems and external threats. There was also the threat of the evil sects, and there was also the decay of the great families. The Warlord was a lone wolf who didn't listen to orders.    

    

In order to stabilize the dynasty, he had to stay in the Divine Capital. He couldn't easily make a move again, because he knew very well that once he fell, the dynasty would definitely perish.    

    

He knew this very well. He knew that this Chen Xiao in front of him was also very clear about this.    

    

Thinking of this, Li Juechen's expression became even colder.    

    

Chen Xiao chuckled and said, "Looks like you're really afraid."    

    

Li Juechen was a little angry. He snorted and said, "Hmph, you don't know anything. Why are you mocking me?"    

    

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "It's nothing. I'm just returning to what you said just now."    

    

"Heh, you have quite the tone," Li Juechen said in disdain.    

    

"Are you talking about the God Lord who hides his head and shows his tail?" Chen Xiao suddenly said.    

    

When Li Juechen heard this, his entire body trembled. He was a little surprised. "You also know about the God Lord?"    

    

"Is this some kind of secret?" Chen Xiao asked.    

    

It was difficult for him to not know about these things. The Duke of Zi Jin would often send messages to inform him of these things. The name of the God Lord had already spread throughout the Divine Realm. It was equally famous as the Demon Lord. It was extremely mysterious.    

    

The more powerful the person, the more terrifying they were. However, he didn't think so.    

    

Li Juechen snorted and said, "Since you know, you should restrain yourself a little. In the current Divine Realm, not only my Wushuang Dynasty, but the other forces are also keeping a low profile and preserving their strength, waiting for the future. Junior, it's good that you are young and hot-blooded, but it's a pity that your eyes are too high."    

    

"Is that so? Great General, do you really think so?" Chen Xiao said indifferently, his tone full of contempt.    

    

Li Juechen had a blood feud with the Dark Shrine and almost died at the hands of the other party, but he still wanted to hide. This kind of person could not be trusted.    

    

"Oh, what do you think?" Li Juechen asked back.    

    

It had to be said that Chen Xiao's contemptuous eyes made him feel quite uncomfortable and angry.    

    

Chen Xiao smiled, his face cold, and said, "Don't waste your breath. It seems that our thoughts are not the same."    

    

When he said this, he had already opened the window and said what he wanted to say. He was no longer pretending.    

    

Li Juechen was from the royal family, and Chen Xiao was a rogue cultivator who had risen from a humble background. The two of them were not even in the same boat, so it was rare for them to be able to stand here and speak calmly.    

    

"Are you a rogue cultivator?" Li Juechen frowned and asked.    

    

At this time, he suddenly discovered a huge problem.    

    

Chen Xiao was expressionless and replied, "You are from the royal family."
