Peerless War God

There was no lack of various strange beasts amongst them, and they were either cultivators’ mounts or flying beasts that flew outside the city.    

But without exception, all of them descended outside Violet Cloud City and entered the city according to the rules, and even a Tribulation Transcender received the same treatment.    

A violet door rose from the ground and guarded this grand city, and it was extremely magnificent.    

But right at this moment, a cultivator at the entrance of the city reacted swiftly, and he saw a few figures rushing over from the horizon. Numerous flowing lights flashed past, and they directly traversed the sky and flew into Violet Cloud City, and they completely disregarded the city entrance.    

For a time, the face of this low-ranked cultivator was filled with astonishment.    

“Ah? What background do these people have? They actually disregard the restriction of flying in Violet Cloud City and forcefully fly over to enter the city. They’re truly bold, and they’ll surely suffer a great loss.”    

When they saw this, some people echoed with him.    

“Yeah, this group of people will probably suffer a calamity. Violet Cloud City is no longer the same as it was in the past, and it has five Immortal Realm experts that are in charge of it, and their might is monstrous. Violet Cloud City is the number one city in South Kui Province, and the City Lord, the Violet Gold Marquis, is even more mysterious. He actually dared to play with the tiger’s whiskers, and this is going to be a good show. Hehe.”    

This scene was witnessed by countless cultivators in the city, and most of them were gloating and waiting to watch a good show.    

No one in South Kui Province hadn’t heard of Violet Cloud City’s might in the past 100 years, and it had become the number one power in South Kui Province.    

Regardless of whether it was the various great cultivation families of the Southern Continent, or even the Immortal Weapon Sect and Profound Pill Sect, they all had to treat him with respect.    

However, the scene that these low-level cultivators had imagined did not appear.    

They only saw that not only did the guards of Violet Cloud City not stop them, but they instead all bowed respectfully and placed their right hands on their chests as they shouted with full confidence.    

"Welcome back, City Lord."    

"Welcome back, City Lord."    

Their voices were so loud that it was deafening. Countless cultivators in Violet Cloud City could hear them clearly and their voices resounded in their ears.    

There were even a few Purple Guards in purple armor who rushed over from various places and surrounded Chen Xiao and the others.    

"City Lord, are you injured?"    

An old Purple Guard asked with a worried look.    

The Duke of Violet Gold laughed dryly and waved his hand. "Don't be so ostentatious. Go away. If you surround them, the air won't be good at all."    

"Eh..."    

The Purple Guards looked at each other helplessly. They were very worried, but they could only do as they were told.    

After the Purple Guards greeted Chen Xiao and the Heavenly Star Swordmaster, they quickly retreated.    

At this time, a hearty laugh came from afar. It quickly arrived, and two figures flashed over. They were Gu Changsheng and the Yin Yang Master.    

After experiencing the drastic change in the Evil Black Sky Cult, the two of them had completely given up and joined Violet Cloud City. They were the four City Lords and the five City Lords.    

During this period of time, every time Chen Xiao and company went out, it was the two of them who would be in charge of the city. Only then could they ensure that nothing went wrong.    

The Yin Yang Lord was a fat man. After not seeing him for many years, he seemed to have gained another round of weight, making him even more plump.    

He walked up to them with a big laugh. However, when he saw the injured Purple Gold Marquis, he immediately restrained himself.    

He frowned and said, "You got injured again?"    

Purple Gold Marquis nodded and said, "I fought Yi Yun, but I didn't win."    

The Yin Yang Lord opened his mouth and was surprised. He was about to throw a punch when he smacked his lips and said, "Your courage is quite great. This is the second time you have fought with the Great Elder of the Immortal Weapon Sect, Yi Yun. Yi Yun's strength is extraordinary. You are no match for him. You have suffered greatly."    

Although he said that, the Yin Yang Lord was not stingy at all. He took out a bottle of recovery pills and stuffed it into Purple Gold Marquis's hands.    

The Yin Yang Lord was adept at refining pills. After staying in the Purple Cloud City for so many years, he came to a sudden realization and focused on refining pills. He had made great progress.    

The pills he refined were the most sought-after goods in the Purple Cloud City. Those that he could personally take out were definitely extraordinary.    

Purple Gold Marquis smiled happily. "Thank you."    

"It looks like you have not injured your foundation. After taking my medicine, you should be able to recover in two to three hundred years. Why did you provoke Yi Yun? Sigh."    

The Yin Yang Lord sighed and said.    

Everyone fell silent and did not speak. Chen Xiao exhaled and said, "It's because of Li Zhan."    

"Li Zhan?"    

Yin Yang Dao Sovereign and Gu Changsheng looked at each other in shock.    

The two of them had already known about Li Zhan's matter and the sudden change in the Wushuang Dynasty. They never expected that they would be involved in it this time.    

"Li Zhan has appeared?" Gu Changsheng asked.    

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, Li Zhan has appeared in the Heavenwar City for revenge. He will fight to the death with me, but he has lost. If not for Yi Yun interfering, Li Zhan would have died for sure."    

"This..." Yin Yang Dao Sovereign was greatly shocked and his heart was filled with shock.    

He knew Li Zhan's strength very well. Chen Xiao's words left him speechless for a long time.    

He never expected that in just a few hundred years, a former Tribulation Transcender would have grown to the point where he could defeat Li Zhan. He was truly a monster. The speed at which he rose up was just too fast, leaving everyone flabbergasted.    

Gu Changsheng came back to his senses and looked deeply at Chen Xiao. "So that's how it is. Since Yi Yun interfered in this matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to resolve this peacefully."    

"Mm, that's why we returned to the city first and planned from the long term," Chen Xiao said coldly, his heart filled with killing intent.    

Li Zhan had to die, but with Yi Yun interfering, killing Li Zhan would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens. They could only wait for the right time.    

Gu Changsheng nodded. "Sure, that's for the best. Yi Yun has the backing of the Celestial Artifact Sect, so we cannot fight him head on."    

The moment he said this, everyone's faces turned serious. They were unprecedentedly nervous.    

No one did not know how terrifying Yi Yun was. No one dared to take the initiative to find trouble with Yi Yun.    

Now, Chen Xiao had formed a grudge with Yi Yun. This matter was no small matter.    

At this moment, the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign noticed that the atmosphere was a little off. He laughed and said, "We will discuss this matter later. There is no need to rush it. Let's go back first and disperse."    

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng and the Yin Yang Lord immediately shut up and did not say anything else.    

The Duke of Zijin patted Chen Xiao's shoulder and said, "That's good. Chen Xiao, you have been guarding the Heavenwar City for so many years. You must have suffered a lot. Although you were unable to kill Li Zhan this time, preventing future troubles, you still managed to injure him. Without a few decades of recuperation, he probably won't be able to recover. We can temporarily be at ease."    

"Yes." Chen Xiao nodded.    

"It's been so many years since you last returned. You must be anxious, right?" The Duke of Zijin said in a low voice with a mischievous smile.    

Immediately, the crowd burst into laughter. The atmosphere immediately became much more cheerful.    

In Violet Cloud City, everyone knew that Chen Xiao had a beautiful wife and enjoyed the good life. It caused countless cultivators to be envious of him.    

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao's old face turned red. He stuttered, "I..."    

The smile on the Duke of Zijin's face deepened. "We're all men. We all know that. Since that's the case, let's disperse. Let's disperse."    

When everyone saw this, they laughed and dispersed one by one.
