Peerless War God

However, Liu Ming did not immediately put away the Dark Demon Pestle. His eyes flashed as he called out the Heaven Smiting Immortal Puppet that had the soul of the Black Spirit Division. His body turned into a ray of light as he entered the small world and temporarily hid himself.    

Previously, he had been forced to hide within the Black Curtain Formation in order to avoid the pursuit of Dragon God Palace's great general Fin Xiu and the great Argus Race's great cultivator.    

It was very possible that Fin Xiu and the Argus Race's grand cultivator were still guarding outside the black curtain. Thus, they had to be cautious and hide their true bodies first.    

The Soul Division Soul of the Black Spirit was one with the host soul. Since the main body had already recognized the Black Demon Pestle as its master, the Soul Division Soul could naturally be controlled as well.    

With a thought from his soul fragments, he shouted, "Return."    

The black light in front of his eyes flickered, and the world spirit space rapidly shrunk. Finally, it all gathered in his palm and turned into a short black metal pestle.    

It was cold to the touch and had a texture to it.    

He no longer had time to ponder over the black demon pestle. The moment the black barrier disappeared, he could see hundreds and thousands of Seafolk floating in the sea not too far away. One of them was Fin Hu.    

Clearly, these people had come to chase after him.    

The soul fragments controlled the Ancient Era's Immortal Puppet and it quickly flew toward the sea in an attempt to leave this place as soon as possible.    

Not too long ago, in the army of the Dragon God Palace.    

In the middle was an incomparably large, resplendent, golden, shiny, luxurious, and extremely precious dragon boat. Above the dragon boat, on the golden throne, sat a dragon-headed young man, holding a veiled maid in his left hand and a wine cup in his right.    

He had a dignified and imposing appearance, and his cold gaze was focused on everyone below.    

The general, general, general, general, and several other experts of the Dragon God Palace were all quietly standing below. They didn't even dare to breathe out, afraid of infuriating this third prince.    

"Still no news of the murderer?"    

The third prince's voice was bone-chilling cold. If it had come from the netherworld, it would have suppressed his endless anger.    

"According to Your Highness, we have sent out all three thousand troops to surround the black curtain barrier. If there is even the slightest movement, we will not be able to escape the army's eyes." Below, a general of the Gui Family replied loudly.    

His Highness' eyes were full of murderous intent, and his face was getting more and more dark.    

At that time, when Chen Xiao had escaped into the dark space, the severely injured and dying Dragon God Palace's Seventh Prince Ao Feng was directly crushed to death by the invisible pressure from the Black Demon Pestle's space.    

The news of Ao Feng's death had instantly spread throughout the whole of the Dragon God Palace, causing huge waves. This caused the Dragon Lord to be enraged, vowing to find the culprit and dismember his body into ten thousand pieces.    

If a Seventh Prince like Ao Feng was only at the peak of the sage realm, then even if he died, it wouldn't be a big loss to the Dragon God Palace's combat power.    

But this was a slap to the face of the Dragon God Palace. If he dared to kill Ao Feng today, he might even dare to tear down the Dragon God Palace the next time.    

To kill Chen Xiao, taking revenge for Ao Feng was one of them. More importantly, to make an example of him, the prestige of the Dragon God Palace was not allowed to be provoked.    

At the very first moment, the Dragon Lord dispatched nearly half of his army to seal off the sea around the ruins of the Dragon Palace. In order to ensure success, he even dispatched His Highness the Third Prince.    

Thinking about his only brother accidentally dying in this relic, the third prince couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.    

"Human cultivator, you have so much courage! How hateful! One day, this prince will personally lead an army of the sea race to flatten the entire Divine Realm and exterminate all humans!"    

Only, his anger did not come solely from the fact that his own little brother had been killed, but also from the different attitudes of the entire Dragon God Palace.    

The Dragon Lord was enraged, all for the sake of the Dragon God Palace's face. However, the other brothers and sisters within the Dragon God Palace, although they didn't express any cold words of ridicule towards Ao Feng's death, they only watched without doing anything, not caring much.    

Dragon Lord, as one of the two overlords of the endless sea, he has lived for tens of thousands of years. Naturally, he has many women and concubines in his long life, as well as many children.    

Within the Dragon God Palace, Ao Feng was born from the same mother as him, and before his accident, they were also doted on, secretly arousing the jealousy of many dragons and dragons.    

Seeing that Ao Feng died in an accident, he knew that many of the dragons and women were secretly happy. The huge Dragon God Palace was not made of steel, and thinking about this, he became even angrier.    

"Humph!"    

The Third Prince angrily swung his arm and smashed his wine cup on the ground, shattering it into pieces.    

The shattering of the cup echoed in the hearts of the generals. They couldn't help but feel their hearts tremble as they lowered their heads and bowed.    

"Please calm your anger, Your Highness."    

"Your Highness, please calm your anger."    

"Calm down? "A bunch of trash. My Dragon God Palace has raised such a large group of subordinates, but we can't even find a mere human cultivator. What's the use of all of you?"    

His Highness the third prince stood up and shouted angrily, scaring the maids around him into retreating quickly with a pale face.    

"This …"    

Fin Xiu and Fa Li both lowered their heads, not even daring to raise them. Although the other generals of the Dragon God Palace were displeased, they didn't dare to refute them.    

"It's been five years, a whole five years. There's no news at all. A bunch of useless things."    

"Flip-flop, chomp, chomp."    

"Yes, Your Highness."    

"Your subordinate is here."    

The two of them bowed and replied.    

The third prince's eyes were gloomy as he said coldly, "If there is still no news after a few days, the two of you should go into the dark to investigate personally. It is best if you come out alive, but if you can't, you should stay inside to accompany my brother in death."    

Swoosh! Both of their faces turned pale. However, they let Chen Xiao go right under their noses and failed to save Ao Feng.    

Even if he were to return to the Dragon Palace for such a heinous crime, Lord Dragon would never let him off lightly. Going into the dark to find the murderer and atone for it would already be the best outcome.    

Thus, the two had no choice but to accept it.    

Just at this moment, Chen Xiao successfully took the Black Demon Pestle. Under the watchful eyes of thousands of Dragon God Palace's army, the space in the Dark Curtain shrank little by little, finally dissipating in front of everyone's eyes.    

Due to the sudden disappearance of the dark space, the original space had been filled up by the deep sea water, causing a huge noise. This caused the army of the Dragon God Palace to wake up.    

However, in the midst of this delay, the Seafolk did not see the final location of the black space disappear. Instead, they saw it in Chen Xiao's palm and did not notice this unusual situation.
