Peerless God Emperor

Three days later, Qin Xuan had to make a choice between him and Yi.    

Choose one of them, or none at all.    

Qin Xuan looked at the sky with a profound look in his eyes.    

What happened now was out of his expectations. He didn't think that Worry and Yi wanted to join hands with him. What made him even more surprised was that the Dark Nether Sect actually sent a saint to stand guard here. What was the purpose of this?    

Had he discovered something?    

After all, when Lu Xiao arrived, the first thing he wanted to do was to see him.    

If Lu Xiao discovered that his identity was a disguise, the consequences would be unimaginable.    

With his current strength, a Saint was able to easily kill him with just one hand. He had no way to fight back.    

"Young master, what are you planning to do?" A voice sounded. Lu Xiao looked at Qin Xuan and asked, "Among them, who do you plan to choose?    

Worry before is not without reason. Choosing two people has different benefits, so the specific choice depends on what Qin Xuan thinks.    

"Both of them, I don't want to choose either of them." Qin Xuan suddenly spoke, causing Lu Xiao, Yang Hou and the rest to freeze.    

Not a single one?    

"Why do you say that?" Lu Xiao revealed a puzzled look. Qin Xuan's answer was out of his expectations and he didn't want to choose any of them. Could it be that he had a better choice?    

"On the surface, teaming up seems to be the best choice, and it can help the Dark Nether Sect overcome this crisis. However, teaming up is equivalent to tying the Dark Nether Sect up with someone else. If anything happens to them in the future, the Dark Nether Sect might be dragged in as well." Qin Xuan explained. His expression was very calm, giving off the feeling that he had thought through many things.    

In fact, the reason he didn't want to join hands with others was very simple.    

In the future, if his identity was exposed, the powers that joined hands would also become his enemies. At that time, wouldn't they be like a cocoon around themselves?    

Hence, he didn't wish to get involved with any other powers.    

"But if we don't join hands, how does Young Master plan to resolve this calamity in front of us?" Lu Xiao asked again. He didn't think Qin Xuan was wrong, but he believed that there was always danger. Especially in a place like the Asura Hell where killing intent was everywhere, it was always a good thing to have a helper.    

"Naturally, we will deal with it head on. Could it be that Protector Lu does not believe in our strength?" Qin Xuan looked at Lu Xiao and said. Lu Xiao's gaze slightly froze and he didn't say anything more.    

Forget it, letting the young master experience more hardships was also a good thing. If it really was a critical moment, it wouldn't be too late for him to save the young master.    

As long as the young master was fine, there wouldn't be a big problem.    

"If there's nothing else, please disperse." Qin Xuan spoke to the rest before turning around and walking back to his room.    

Chu Feng and the rest were still standing outside, as if they were lifeless statues. No one could see anything strange about them.    

"Let's go." After Lu Xiao spoke, the rest of the crowd also dispersed.    

After Marquis Yang left, he went straight back to his own residence. When he sat down, he vaguely sensed something and said, "There is no need to be like this. You can ask whatever you want."    

As the sound of his voice faded, a silhouette appeared in the air. It was none other than Lu Xiao.    

"Why did you come here?" As the head protector of Lu Xiao, unless it was something important, Sect Master would never send him here personally.    

After all, there weren't many Saints in the Dark Underworld Sect. It wasn't like the great power of the Nine Heaven Immortal Country, where they could directly send their peak Saints over to guard the sect.    

Lu Xiao looked deeply at Yang Hou, as if he was trying to see through him. If Yang Hou really did something rebellious, his first reaction would be to think of a way to escape instead of staying here.    

Furthermore, according to his understanding of Yang Hou, this man was extremely loyal to the sect and shouldn't have betrayed him.    

Could there be some misunderstanding?    

"To be honest, I am here on Sect Master's orders. He wants me to come and investigate if there are any traitors who are trying to harm young master's life." As he spoke, his gaze was fixated on the face of Yang Hou, as if he wanted to see how he would react.    

"Traitor?" Yang Hou's eyes immediately revealed a hint of shock. Then, he realized something and coldly said to Lu Xiao, "You mean that I have betrayed the sect and harmed the young master's life?"    

Lu Xiao's expression remained the same as he said, "You are the strongest person here. If it were any other person betraying you, you would have solved the problem immediately. However, this matter has alarmed Sect Master, so your suspicion is the greatest."    

Yang Hou raised his head and looked straight into Lu Xiao's eyes, his gaze devoid of fear.    

"Then do you think I'm rebellious?" His entire heart was set on thinking for the sake of the sect, and now that he was suspected, he naturally could not accept it.    

"If I thought you were rebellious, do you think I would still talk to you about this here?" Lu Xiao calmly swept a glance at Yang Hou, causing his expression to freeze.    

If Lu Xiao was certain that he had betrayed the sect, he would already be a dead man.    

Marquis Yang suddenly thought of something, he looked towards Lu Xiao and asked, "How did Sect Master find out about this?"    

Could it be that someone purposely framed him in front of Sect Master?    

However, this did not make sense. As long as Sect Master sent someone to investigate, everything would be clear. The crime could not be established.    

"The young master's Life Bead has dimmed and is in imminent danger, so Sect Master sent me to check it out." Lu Xiao said.    

"The Life Bead is getting darker?" Yang Hou's heart trembled uncontrollably, a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes. He felt that the young master's strength was much stronger than before, so how could the Life Bead become dimmer?    

A look of thought appeared on Lu Xiao's face. The Life Bead had stored martial cultivator's soul for a long time and there had never been a mistake. Then, the problem could only lie with the young master.    

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao looked at Yang Hou and asked, "What has Young Master done recently?"    

"When we were in the Heaven and Earth City, Young Master refined six Ghost Generals and then came with us to the Four Symbols City. A few days ago, he even entered the Dao Burial Ground and didn't do anything special other than that." Marquis Yang roughly described Qin Xuan's experiences during this period of time, including Qin Xuan's rescue of Gu Jiange.    

Lu Xiao didn't say anything, but his eyes kept blinking. These things alone didn't seem to explain anything.    

"Based on your understanding of Young Master for so many years, have you noticed anything strange about him?" Or perhaps, it is different from before. " Lu Xiao looked at Marquis Yang and asked.    

Yang Hou's expression changed, he nodded and said, "Indeed, it is different from before. Sometimes, the way you act has changed, and it feels like you have become a different person."    

Hearing this, Lu Xiao's eyes flashed with a sharp glint, and he continued to ask, "When did it start?"    

After pondering for a moment, Marquis Yang then said, "It seems that there has been a change since the Ghost General was forged."    

As the sound of his voice faded, he seemed to have realized something. He looked towards Lu Xiao and asked, "Could it be that something went wrong during the refining process and caused Young Master's body to change and his temperament to change as well?"    

"It's hard to say. I need to report this to Sect Master and let him decide for himself." Lu Xiao said with a solemn look on his face.    

From the looks of it, it was most likely that something was wrong with Young Master. However, with his identity, he couldn't do anything to Young Master, so he could only ask Sect Master for permission.    

Yang Hou nodded in agreement. Although the current young master was more outstanding than the past, his personality was completely different. Furthermore, the Life Bead was gradually fading. If this matter was not dealt with quickly, the young master's life would be in danger!    

His young master was the future of the Dark Nether Sect, and he had entrusted the hopes of countless people into it. Nothing could go wrong for him.    

At the same time, Qin Xuan was cultivating in his bedroom, stabilizing his cultivation level. He didn't know that Lu Xiao and Yang Hou were already suspecting him.    

However, with the sudden arrival of Lu Xiao, he could faintly sense a sense of crisis that could erupt at any time.    

Now, it was time to plan how to get out of here unscathed.    

After thinking for a while, Qin Xuan called Chu Feng in and told him a few things. Then, Chu Feng left.    

Not long after, a young man appeared outside of Mu Jinyu's palace. He wore a golden robe, giving off an extraordinary aura.    

gold-robed youth was Chu Feng. At that moment, he changed back into his original clothes and no one could recognize that he was the Ghost General that was by Qin Xuan's side.    

Chu Feng stepped out and walked to the front of the palace. At this moment, two guards stopped him and scolded, "Who is so bold as to barge into the palace?"    

"Go in and tell your princess that someone from the Profound Sky Continent requests an audience." Chu Feng said calmly.    

"People of the Sky Profound Realm!"    

The two guards' expressions immediately changed. Their gazes started to size up the young man before them. Their hearts were a little unsettled. This man was handsome, and his temperament was quite outstanding. Was he also from the Sky Profound?    

Even if it was just a guard, they knew that the princess had been inquiring about the whereabouts of a person from the Profound Sky Continent all this time. And all of this was because of one person.    

Qin Xuan.    

Qin Xuan had broken the Worry Array in the Nine Heavens City and helped the Mu Palace become number one among the four palaces. His name became famous and many people in the Mu Palace knew that he was a peerless genius and worshipped him, and the two of them were no exception.    

However, Qin Xuan had already disappeared. It was unknown if the princess was still looking for someone from the Sky Profound Realm.    

"It's better if you go and report to the princess. You'll have to wait and see." One of them spoke up, turned around and walked into the depths of the palace.    

After a few moments, that person returned. He looked at Chu Feng and said, "My princess would like to invite you in."    

"Lead the way." Chu Feng nodded, then he stepped forward and walked into the palace with the guard.
