After a while, a long howl echoed, and a green figure flew over.
It was a middle-aged man donned in black battle armor, his entire body enveloped in the menacing armor. In his eyes, the laws of heaven and earth swirled, emanating an aura of endless majesty. It was as if there was a raging furnace within him, exuding a terrifying presence.
Boom! As he landed, his gaze fixed on Qin Chen, and his pupils instantly constricted. A glimmer of light flashed deep in his eyes before quickly vanishing, returning to a state of ordinariness.
This glimmer was well concealed, yet how could it deceive Qin Chen?
"Strange."
A trace of doubt flickered in Qin Chen's heart.
"Greetings, Elder Gu Xu."
Upon seeing the newcomer, Venerable Wind Return quickly bowed respectfully.
Earth Venerable Gu Xu slightly nodded and then coldly addressed Venerable Wind Return, "What happened?"
"This person is not a disciple of Tian Gong, yet he trespassed into our forbidden area and even attacked me."
Venerable Wind Return hurriedly reported.
Earth Venerable Gu Xu was a Tian Gong elder and one of the deputy commanders in this camp. Even outside, he had an extraordinary reputation, and suppressing Qin Chen would be absolutely effortless.
Earth Venerable Gu Xu snorted and then scrutinized Qin Chen, calmly saying, "I will give you an opportunity to explain yourself. Why did you trespass into our forbidden area?
How did you get in?"
Venerable Wind Return widened his eyes, displaying an expression of disbelief. Why was Earth Venerable Gu Xu suddenly so reasonable? He remembered that Gu Xu had always had a very irritable temper, often resorting to violence immediately.
Was this still the same Earth Venerable Gu Xu?
Qin Chen's gaze flickered, "I entered because I wanted to. Is it necessary for your consent?
Besides, where does it say ‘forbidden area’ here?"
"You…" Venerable Wind Return was filled with murderous intent, glaring angrily at Qin Chen. This was too arrogant; how dare he speak to a Tian Gong expert like this? What kind of confidence did this person possess?
"Offending Earth Venerable Gu Xu, this child is undoubtedly doomed."
Venerable Wind Return roared inwardly.
"Boom!"
A magnificent killing intent surged from Earth Venerable Gu Xu, and his gaze turned icy. In an instant, a vast aura of flames enveloped the area, shrouding the Tian Gong camp.
"What is this?"
"What happened?"
"Are there Earth Venerable experts fighting on Fire God Mountain?"
"It’s the flame domain of Deputy Commander Gu Xu."
The overwhelming firelight swept across, and everyone in the Tian Gong camp felt this terrifying power, their hearts filled with shock as they looked over.
"Haha, this child is going to be in trouble."
Venerable Wind Return felt exhilarated, his eyes blazing.
"Young man, tell me how you entered the Tian Gong camp and your background, which human race faction do you belong to? Otherwise, do not blame me for being impolite."
Earth Venerable Gu Xu coldly stated.
What?
Venerable Wind Return was instantly dumbfounded. What was going on?
Why hadn't Earth Venerable Gu Xu taken action yet?
He felt anxious; how was Earth Venerable Gu Xu's temperament so different from before?
"Elder Gu Xu, why ask so much? Just act and suppress him. Trespassing into our forbidden area is a crime deserving of death."
Venerable Wind Return shouted angrily.
"Shut up."
Elder Gu Xu shot a cold glance at Venerable Wind Return, rebuking him. That gaze immediately rendered Venerable Wind Return speechless; he looked at Earth Venerable Gu Xu in disbelief. Gu Xu was from their faction, yet he was being reprimanded like this because of Qin Chen.
Earth Venerable Gu Xu focused on Qin Chen.
Qin Chen suddenly smiled slightly, "I am also a disciple of Tian Gong."
As he spoke, a token appeared in his hand, the Tian Gong Holy Son token.
Earth Venerable Gu Xu was taken aback, frowning, "Holy Son token? You are one of Tian Gong's Holy Sons?
As an elder of Tian Gong, I haven't seen you before, either at the headquarters or in the Myriad Races Battlefield camp."
