Chen Xiaoyun broke through the killing, and his ghostly figure suddenly appeared in front of Chen Xi.
Buzz…
A wisp of purple light lingered on his fingertips. It seemed inconspicuous, but it made a sharp and piercing sound, releasing a terrifying piercing power that made people's hearts palpitate.
As one of the three most powerful overlords among the Chen clan's Domain Master Realm experts, Chen Xiaoyun's cultivation has already broken through to the Seven Star Domain Master Realm. Coupled with his innate heritage as a protector of the gods, his combat power is beyond doubt. Doubtfully strong.
It is conceivable that the attack in front of them alone is enough to make most domain owners tremble in the outside world and dare not use their edge!
"It's finally time to take action..."
In a very far distance, two figures stood out of thin air. One was wearing plain clothes, with a delicate face, and exuded a clean, simple, and transcendent aura.
The other is a woman, dressed in a fiery red dress, with willow eyebrows like knives, red lips, and an incomparably beautiful face that is full of coldness and aloofness.
The two of them had obviously seen all this secretly. When they saw Chen Xiaoyun making a brazen move, both of their originally calm faces showed a hint of expectation.
If Chen Xiaoyun were here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this man and woman are Chen Daoyuan and Chen Qiushui, who are the three overlords with him!
The situation is tense and on the verge of breaking out.
Facing Chen Xiaoyun's violent killing, Chen Xi also turned around suddenly and faced Chen Xiaoyun suddenly.
However, what was unexpected was that he remained motionless, showing no intention of blocking or even trying to avoid it.
He just stood there quietly, his expression calm and indifferent, his dark eyes unwavering, as if he was unaware of the approaching danger.
Um
Chen Xiaoyun's eyes suddenly narrowed, murderous intent appearing, but at this critical moment, he also unexpectedly stopped and put away his offensive.
The fingertip surrounded by purple light was now less than three inches away from Chen Xi's throat. Under such circumstances, as long as he wanted to, he could easily kill Chen Xi!
But he didn't move.
This made everyone in the audience stunned and confused, unable to figure out the situation.
"Why don't you fight back?"
Chen Xiaoyun's expression was cold, and his narrow eyes stared at Chen Xi, as sharp as a blade.
"Why don't you do it?"
Chen Xi asked back, his expression unchanged.
Chen Xiaoyun was silent for a moment and said coldly: "Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"
Chen Xi suddenly smiled, stretched out his hand and brushed away the fingertips that were touching the other person's throat, as naturally as brushing away a wisp of smoke, and then said: "You don't dare, right?"
Chen Xiaoyun's face darkened, murderous intent lingering in his eyes, as if he could no longer hold back and wanted to take action.
But Chen Xi seemed completely unaware. He didn't even bother to look at Chen Xiaoyun, turned around, walked to the pillar of fire, and crushed the purple divine chains tied to Chen Hongxiu's body...
During this process, Chen Xiaoyun kept watching coldly, and several times he impulsively wanted to take the opportunity to kill Chen Xi, but in the end, he did not do so.
"Next time you want to cause trouble for me, you can just go to me directly. You don't have to threaten the lives of your fellow tribesmen. This is really shameless."
After Chen Xi rescued Chen Hongxiu, he turned around and looked at Chen Xiaoyun, shook his head and left with a sigh.
All of a sudden, Chen Xiaoyun's expression became more and more uncertain, and he stood there staring at Chen Xi without saying a word.
Until Chen Xi's figure disappeared into the cave, Chen Xiaoyun was still standing there, with a cold light surging in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Brother Xiaoyun, why did you let him go?"
The nearby Chen clan members rushed up with unwillingness on their faces. They couldn't understand what Chen Xiaoyun was doing. It was obviously an excellent opportunity, but why did they stop
"You don't understand."
Chen Xiaoyun suddenly sighed, seeming a little irritated, fluttering his sleeves and returning to the purple lotus seat, and suddenly flew away.
"this… "
The Chen clan members looked at each other in disbelief, and for a long time they all turned away with the burly man who had fallen into a coma with a feeling of despair.
"This kid is quite courageous. I'm sure Xiaoyun won't hurt him at this time."
Very far away, Chen Daoyuan, dressed in plain clothes, smiled and said, "It's just a pity that I couldn't really see what this guy is capable of."
"What kind of courage? I think he knows he is no match for Xiaoyun, so he is just bluffing."
Chen Qiu Shui, who was on one side, disagreed and said with some waning spirits, "I told you earlier that a four-star domain lord is not worthy of us raising an army at all."
"Qiushui, you are wrong. This person is a direct disciple of Shenyan Mountain, and he can be accompanied by Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian, two powerful figures. This is not something that everyone can do."
Chen Daoyuan said thoughtfully, "But you are right. His cultivation in the Four-Star Realm is indeed a flaw. Even if his combat power is incredible, if he wants to be the heir of our Chen family, it will probably be difficult." Not much hope."
"Let's go, the sacrificial hall will open in three days. We have to prepare in advance. I heard that many comrades from other forces will come to watch the ceremony this time... It's really strange. During the last big ceremony, there were no Seeing so many forces coming..."
While muttering to himself, Chen Qiushui turned around and left.
Seeing this, Chen Daoyuan smiled and left.
Although Chen Hongxiu's injuries were serious, they were only flesh injuries and did not damage Daoji. He only needed to rest for a few days to fully recover.
This made Chen Xi secretly relieved.
"Why didn't you do anything just now?"
Chen Hongxiu asked breathlessly. He was also curious about Chen Xi's performance just now.
"No need."
Chen Xi answered casually.
"No need?"
Chen Hongxiu was stunned. He thought about many answers, but he didn't expect such an answer.
"Then Chen Xiaoyun came here just to find out my details. How could I let him get his wish?"
Chen Xi said casually.
"But... aren't you worried that Chen Xiaoyun was ruthless just now?"
Chen Hongxiu couldn't help but said.
"He didn't dare."
When Chen Xi said this, he muttered, "It's not that I'm too arrogant, but I'm pretty sure that before your Chen clan's sacrificial hall begins, he won't dare to let me get hurt in any way."
"Why?"
Chen Hongxiu asked.
"In this case, my two senior brothers will not let it go. Even if I get injured, it will give my two senior brothers an excuse to go crazy. Who dares to do this under such circumstances?"
Chen Xi explained patiently, and then Chen Hongxiu suddenly came to his senses.
Chen Hongxiu didn't stay long and insisted on leaving after a while. Although he was seriously injured, I'm afraid no one in the Chen family would make trouble for him again.
Chen Xi personally sent him out of the cave, and then turned back. Chen Hongxiu's grandfather and Chen Lingjun in his previous life were cousins, and they were brothers. They came to visit Chen Xi a few days ago and provided Chen Xi with some necessary information. This made Chen Xi I was very grateful in my heart, and I had even made up my mind to repay this person if I had the opportunity in the future.
What surprised Chen Xi was that not long after Chen Hongxiu left, Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian, who had disappeared for many days, also returned together.
The two of them went to visit some living stone-level antiques in the Chen clan a few days ago. They did not return for a long time, which made Chen Xi feel a little worried. Now that they finally returned, he was extremely happy.
However, neither Wu Xuechan nor Tang Xian revealed to Chen Xi the contents of the Chen family's antiques he visited these days, which made Chen Xi quite puzzled.
"Junior brother, don't be depressed. In the duel between heirs in three days, you can go ahead and fight without any worries."
Surprisingly, this time it was Tang Xian, who had always been stern and taciturn, who spoke up and took the initiative to comfort Chen Xi, making the latter feel quite flattered.
Immediately, Chen Xi vaguely realized that the two senior brothers might have gained something from visiting the old antiques of the Chen clan this time.
"However, we still have to be careful about Chen Lingkong secretly causing trouble. I'm really worried that if I push this guy into a hurry, he can do anything."
Wu Xuechan said thoughtfully.
"Could it be that... the imprisonment of my parents was all handled by Chen Lingkong?"
An idea flashed in Chen Xi's mind and he asked.
“Even if you miss, you’re not far off.”
Wu Xuechan patted Chen Xi on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. In three days, your family may be reunited. Your father will tell you all this at that time."
Chen Xi nodded.
Three days later.
As soon as the morning came, the entire Chen clan was boiling. All the clan members were like a dense tide, gathering in front of the clan altar from different directions in the Nine Spirit World.
The ancient altar is suspended in the air, covering an area of 100,000 feet. There are five divine peaks arching underneath it, showing the juxtaposition of the five elements, which is spectacular.
When Chen Xi arrived there with Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian, he saw a dense crowd of figures standing neatly on the altar within a hundred thousand feet, at least tens of thousands of them.
Each of them looked solemn and pious, saying nothing, and the atmosphere seemed unprecedentedly sacred and solemn.
In the center of the altar, a white sacred fire burned. In front of the sacred fire, stood a group of majestic and powerful figures.
Looking from a distance, those figures are just like the scorching sun in the blue sky, shining brightly and dazzlingly, making people dare not look at them.
Obviously, those figures are the most powerful group of high-level figures in the entire Chen family!
The figure of Chen Lingkong also stood prominently among them.
"Come on, let's go to the viewing gallery."
Wu Xuechan led the way and went straight to the top of one of the sacred peaks, where many seats and documents had already been arranged.
There were many figures sitting among them at this time, and it was obvious that those people also came to watch the ceremony of the Chen clan.
When Chen Xi and others arrived, many of them were agitated and stood up one after another to greet Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian.
"I've met Mr. Big."
"I have met fellow Taoist Tang Xian."
This made Chen Xi couldn't help but sigh. The reputation of the two senior brothers was really not overshadowed. Even among the guardian gods of the Chaos Hive, they both enjoyed a high reputation.
Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian returned the courtesy to those figures one by one, and then took Chen Xi to randomly pick a seat and sit down.
Chen Xi found that many eyes were secretly sizing him up from the beginning to the end, which made him wonder. Did they also know that he would be participating in the competition for the successor of the Chen family later
