“Wan Gu Lou Shou Cheng Ze, seen the Yao Guang Sheng Zhu!” This powerful figure spoke in a deep voice, with a hint of respect. He was the Grand Master of Wan Gu Lou, the reclusive ancestral figure, Shou Cheng Ze, a half-step Saint Master.
At this moment, he looked at the phantom of Yao Guang Sheng Zhu in the sky with suspicion, his eyes filled with unease and apprehension, but more importantly, confusion: “I did not know that Yao Guang Sheng Zhu would come, may I ask what brings you here? If needed, Shou Cheng Ze is willing to serve Yao Guang Sheng Zhu.”
Shou Cheng Ze displayed a very humble posture. Although he was a half-step Saint Master, the gap between half-step Saint Master and Saint Master was far too great. Moreover, Yao Guang Sheng Zhu was the Minister of Tian Gong from the Guang Han Mansion, backed by powerful figures.
How could he dare to be negligent?
“Shou Cheng Ze, you are being too polite. This Saint Master has come today solely for my Tian Gong disciple, Qin Chen. Where is he?”
Yao Guang Sheng Zhu said lightly, his voice booming like heavenly thunder, shaking the Wan Gu Lou headquarters and reverberating throughout the land.
“Disciple is here.”
Qin Chen immediately stepped out from the void, bowing respectfully.
“Hmph, you made me wait for three days, yet here you are at Wan Gu Lou's headquarters seeking justice. But never mind, this Saint Master’s matters have been resolved, come along with me.”
An invisible force descended from the sky, enveloping Qin Chen and suddenly exploding. In an instant, the entire Wan Gu Lou headquarters trembled, and the next moment, the towering figure in the sky whisked Qin Chen away in an instant, vanishing without a trace.
The once apocalyptic Wan Gu Lou instantly calmed, as if nothing had ever happened.
Feeling the terrifying aura that had disappeared, all the strong figures in Wan Gu Lou were still in shock, unable to calm down for a long time.
“This... the Minister of Tian Gong has actually come personally for this Qin Chen.”
In the conference hall, the Grand Elder and others looked terrified, filled with disbelief and fear. They had previously said they would investigate Qin Chen, wasn’t that courting death? Moreover, before leaving, the Minister of Tian Gong’s words about seeking justice meant he already knew about the situation here. The Saint Master’s consciousness could undoubtedly perceive everything happening here in an instant.
At this moment, the Grand Elder felt his robe soaked with sweat.
For the first time, he felt endless fear. If Yao Guang Sheng Zhu had intended to deal with him, with just a thought, he would have been obliterated on the spot.
“Shou Xu, come to me immediately and explain clearly.”
A thunderous voice echoed in the Grand Elder's mind, it was the Grand Master Shou Cheng Ze.
He had been in seclusion before and was completely unaware of everything until Yao Guang Sheng Zhu descended, stirring him to realize the anomalies in the conference hall, and he quickly sent a message, his tone imbued with anger.
“Subordinate will be there right away.”
The Grand Elder hurriedly responded in fear, his figure flickering and disappearing from the conference hall, unsure how to explain.
In the endless sky, Qin Chen was swept by a terrifying force, immediately traversing through the Guang Han Mansion.
Before him, Yao Guang Sheng Zhu's expression was indifferent, not saying a word.
“Minister, I was reckless. Please punish me.”
Qin Chen hurriedly bowed his head.
“Punish you? Why should I punish you? You did well. My Tian Gong disciples cannot be framed and insulted by others. Hmph, a mere family, and this Wan Gu Lou's intrigues dares to make a fool of our Tian Gong disciples. This time, you did well to let Wan Gu Lou know that some taboos cannot be violated.”
Yao Guang Sheng Zhu said lightly, his tone filled with praise.
“Yes.”
Qin Chen lowered his head, letting out a sigh of relief, pretending to be obedient. In front of Yao Guang Sheng Zhu, he didn’t dare to be too ostentatious; otherwise, if the other party saw through everything within his body, it would be troublesome. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Yao Guang Sheng Zhu, but some things were unnecessary to reveal, after all, human hearts cannot withstand tests.
