Chapter 1952 Raw 2051 : Nine Cauldron Pavilion

When Xiao Chen saw Murong Yan and the others come in, he nodded slightly and continued questioning the remaining Heavenly Lodging Palace people.

For a team of Holy Venerates to ride a 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot into Desolate God Valley, there had to be some other purpose.

A 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot was very powerful. Had these people used it to attack Xiao Chen’s group from the start, Xiao Chen would have been helpless unless he used the God Shadow Bow. Otherwise, he could only flee with his group.

Fortunately, that Hua Qingyun got careless, giving Xiao Chen the chance to charge inside. Hence, he had caused his entire group’s defeat.

“Three days ago, Elder Xu led the Heavenly Lodging Palace branch elite into Desolate God Valley for some reason. Today, he sent word that there was an important discovery and had Young Master Hua bring the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot, probably to help suppress the place and seal the area.”

Under the mental pressure from Xiao Chen, that person did not dare to lie, speaking the truth.

“Elder Xu? Which Elder Xu?”

“Our Heavenly Lodging Palace branch has two leaders. One is Xu Feng, Elder Xu. The other is Leng Quan, Elder Leng. The one leading the team this time is Elder Xu. He brought nearly all the elites of the branch, leaving only Elder Leng to guard the branch.”

“How strong is this Elder Xu?”

“Elder Xu has been a Sovereign Personage for many years already. He is currently a Small Perfection Sovereign Personage.”

“What exactly did he discover?”

“I don’t know. I…I…I really don’t know. Young Master Hua does not know, either. He only said that it was a shocking discovery, nearly causing Elder Leng to come too. Right now, he is doing his best to seal off all information.”

“Pa!”

It looked like that person really did not know, so Xiao Chen knocked that person unconscious.

Outside the war chariot, Liu Ruyun brought the fleeing gray-robed old man and Hua Qingyun back.

Clearly, the gray-clad old man had not expected Xiao Chen to have anticipated his escape and made arrangements in advance, getting Liu Ruyun to wait on top of the war chariot and catch him off guard at the opportune time.

“Everyone, we have lost this time. However, we are people of the Heavenly Lodging Palace, after all, one of the three Rank 7 sects of the northern region. There is no need to eradicate all of us.” The gray-clad old man brought up the Heavenly Lodging Palace again as he looked at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen said coldly, “If the Heavenly Lodging Palace really cared about you, they would not have placed you in a branch. Furthermore, we have the Divine Dragon Empire backing us. We do not fear your Heavenly Lodging Palace. You can blame yourselves for not being wise, thinking that the outer palace disciples of the Dragon’s Gate are easy to bully.”

The gray-clad old man demanded furiously, “Are you trying to start a war between two superpowers?”

ChapterMid();

Xiao Chen could not help laughing in his heart when he heard this. This gray-clad old man truly lost his intelligence in his rage.

If there was no direct conflict of interest, why would two superpowers wage war over a small matter like this?

If that were the case, this world would have been in chaos long ago. There would be large factions fighting each other all over the place.

“I can’t be bothered to argue with you.”

Xiao Chen used the Tyrant Saber in his hand to hit the gray-clad old man gently, directly knocking out the severely injured old man.

Hua Qingyun, who was at the side, felt extremely frightened. As he looked at Xiao Chen, then the surrounding people, he felt great regret.

Damn it! If I return alive, I will definitely ruthlessly beat up Qi Yunfeng.

That piece of dogshit got me into trouble for nothing.

“Boom!”

The Heaven Suspending War Chariot trembled for a moment before spewing out a trail of flames. Under Liu Ruyun’s control, it flew into the sky.

“Toss everyone out, aside from him.”

Murong Yan smiled and said, “Roger that. I’ll deal with this. Haha!”

Regardless of whether they were still breathing or not, Murong Yan landed a palm strike on everyone in the war chariots before tossing them out to the ground.

When Hua Qingyun saw this scene, he became greatly frightened. He endlessly begged for mercy, but the group did not say anything to him. After leaving a restriction in his body, they knocked him out with a palm strike.

“We obtained a 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot just like that?”

Murong Yan found all this somewhat surreal, not daring to believe it.

Wei Hongfei gave Xiao Chen a meaningful look and asked, “Xiao Chen, exactly how much strength are you hiding from us?”

Right now, everyone could tell that Xiao Chen’s strength was not as simple as what he showed on the surface.

Xiao Chen was already much stronger than the group. Even though he had activated his Great Desolate Eon bloodline as they had, he was still capable of fighting.

After barging into the Heaven Suspending War Chariot, Xiao Chen dealt with ten-odd ordinary Holy Venerates. Furthermore, one of them was a late-stage Holy Venerate expert.

Xiao Chen answered honestly, “They were nothing. That Xu Feng should have led the elites away already. Aside from the gray-robed old man being somewhat difficult to deal with, the rest were not worth mentioning. I believe that they were mostly loose cultivators that the Heavenly Lodging Palace recruited in Ancient Desolate Town.”

“Let’s not care about that first. Xiao Chen, what are you planning to do?” Situ Changfeng asked.

Right now, there were two paths before the group. One was to return. The harvest of this trip was already quite bountiful. After going back and selling what they obtained, they would earn an astronomical profit.

Furthermore, the group also gained a 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot for free, which was a very pleasant surprise.

The second choice was to see what this Heavenly Lodging Palace discovered that prompted it to go to such lengths.

The first option had no risks. The second option was somewhat dangerous.

How to choose?

“Xiao Chen, you decide. We will listen to you.”

Wei Hongfei was rather straightforward, directly leaving the choice to Xiao Chen and not discussing this further.

After all, Xiao Chen had the final say in the end.

Xiao Chen thought for a while before saying, “The other party’s discovery should be huge. Otherwise, they would not bring over the elites of the Heavenly Lodging Palace branch and still find their forces insufficient. With our strength, going to join the excitement would just be suicide.”

Sometimes, one should not blindly join just because there was something exciting. Otherwise, one might end up as cannon fodder.

“Should we give up?” Wei Hongfei felt somewhat reluctant to do so.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Naturally, we cannot. After we return to Ancient Desolate Town, we will spread the news. Didn’t the Heavenly Lodging Palace want to seal off the information? We won’t do as they want. We will let the entire Ancient Desolate Town know that the Heavenly Lodging Palace discovered a startling fortuitous encounter.”

Situ Changfeng’s eyes lit up. “Good idea. As long as we stir up the waters, we can gain a small opportunity.”

“Furthermore, we can sell off the materials from the Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake and use this opportunity to increase our strength first. By then, we will be more confident of dealing with this.” Xiao Chen gave a simple description of his opinion.

Murong Yan scratched his head and asked, “What if they obtain the fortuitous encounter before then? What should we do?”

Xiao Chen replied calmly, “That is impossible. I have a feeling that what the Heavenly Lodging Palace discovered cannot be dealt with that quickly. Otherwise, they would not have to go to such lengths.”

“Alright. It is settled, then.”

“Whoosh!”

After the group came to a decision, Liu Ruyun piloted the war chariot to Ancient Desolate Town.

Naturally, the Heavenly Lodging Palace’s mark on the Heaven Suspending War Chariot had been taken off. The six also altered its exterior slightly.

Otherwise, if they drove the Heaven Suspending War Chariot into Ancient Desolate Town, there would be some trouble.

Liu Ruyun also had a Heaven Suspending War Chariot of her own. With her instructions, they quickly familiarized themselves with this 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot.

Driving the war chariot required many formations. It would be very difficult for one person to control all of them alone.

After the other five familiarized themselves with the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot, they pushed it to its maximum speed, turning it into a bright beam of light heading for Ancient Desolate Town.

Using this 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot, the group took less than a day to get back.

The speed was truly startling.

“Look! A 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot!”

“It is really fast. Where is this 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot from? How come there is no mark on it?”

A 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot was considered an exquisite rarity in Ancient Desolate Town. The war chariots that were not in the possession of huge factions could be counted on one hand.

When returning to Ancient Desolate Town, the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot immediately attracted a lot of attention.

The group rented a luxurious courtyard in Ancient Desolate Town before Xiao Chen gave some instructions. “Liu Ruyun and I will go to the merchant associations to sell the Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake parts. You all should quickly spread the news of the Heavenly Lodging Palace making a huge discovery. You can even embellish the information.”

“Hehe! No problem.”

Xiao Chen did not fear to show off. He had Liu Ruyun steer the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot to a merchant association.

As Liu Ruyun piloted the war chariot, she asked, “The top ten merchant associations of the Central Great Realm should have branches in Ancient Desolate Town. Xiao Chen, which one do you want to go to?”

Xiao Chen nodded and said, “Let’s go to the second-ranked one.”

“Alright.”

“Boom!”

The war chariot accelerated, flying extremely rapidly through the skies above Ancient Desolate Town.

Soon, Xiao Chen arrived at his destination, above the Nine Cauldron Pavilion. Then, the Heaven Suspending War Chariot slowly descended.

[TL Note: This Nine Cauldron Pavilion is likely unrelated to the one in the Kunlun Realm.]

The various big merchant associations had places to receive war chariots. On seeing the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot descend, the eyes of the person in charge of receiving guests lit up.

“A big customer is arriving. Receive them as though they are gold members.”

Xiao Chen and Liu Ruyun opened the door, and the scene that greeted them shocked them slightly.

They saw ten young ladies lined up on both sides, decked out with all sorts of ornaments. They looked very pretty and sexy, bowing at the same time in greeting.

“Hahaha! Honored guests, sorry for not welcoming you from afar on your arrival.”

In front, a middle-aged man wearing embroidered clothes walked over with a forthright smile.

Xiao Chen secretly sized up this person and found that this person showed an extraordinary air. This person actually was a peak Holy Venerate, someone who seemed like he could break through at any moment.

“This humble one is Li Xiuhai, the person managing this Nine Cauldron Pavilion branch. Might I ask who the two of you are?”

When Li Xiuhai approached, he felt slightly surprised. He did not expect that the two people who walked out of the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot to be two youths. Furthermore, one of them was not even a Holy Venerate yet.

Li Xiuhai could not help feeling disappointed. However, he did not show it on his face.

“The manager? You are the one with the highest authority here, then? There is no need for you to know who we are. Send off the others. We have a huge transaction for you.”

Xiao Chen waved his hand, leading Liu Ruyun straight ahead and ignoring this Li Xiuhai.

Li Xiuhai felt greatly startled. How arrogant! However, just as displeasure stirred, he discovered that Xiao Chen had already walked quite far, so he hastened to follow.

Li Xiuhai restrained his anger and smiled. “Might I ask how big this transaction is?”

However, he smiled coldly in his heart. What kind of business has the Nine Cauldron Pavilion not seen before? Just looking at your age, how big can your transaction be? Could it be bigger than that from Sovereign Personages?

“It’s not really that big. We just killed a Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake,” Liu Ruyun replied softly with a smile.

When Li Xiuhai heard that, he could not help his great shock. Did I hear right? A Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake?

An overlord-class Sovereign-Personage-level ferocious beast?!
