Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 584 - 581: Lose the Wife and the Troops (17 Updates!)

Chapter 584: Chapter 581: Lose the Wife and the Troops (17 Updates!)

As these words fell, the central street not far away immediately kicked up a cloud of dust.

People all around hastily darted to the sides, only to see four large figures, pulling a carriage, thundering towards this place.

Each figure was about thirty feet tall and around sixty feet long, with a head resembling that of a horse, bodies a bright red, and hair growing on their backs. Overall, they didn’t seem to possess much powerful aura, but their speed was like an apparition—one moment they appeared in the distance, and in the blink of an eye, they had already arrived nearby.

These four figures were Red Dragon Horses!

Four Red Dragon Horses, yet they were only pulling a single carriage, and inside, there were only about a dozen people, which naturally made the speed even faster.

Moreover, the people on this carriage were not headed towards the central square, but were instead about a million miles away. Upon hearing this news, they had immediately rushed over.

Clearly, they were all disciples of the Jade Void Palace, evident by the clothes they wore.

Especially when the curtains of the carriage were lifted, a middle-aged man stepped out, emanating no aura, but giving off a dangerous vibe. Holding a horsetail whisk in his hand, he stepped off the carriage and immediately made his way over here.

"It’s Elder Chen Yu!"

"Elder Chen Yu really came. A super stronger of the Pseudo-Emperor Realm, this time, the Phoenix Sect is really in for it."

"No, that’s not right. The Phoenix Sect clearly offended the Jade Void Palace, so why did the shopkeeper of that carriage still rent them a carriage?"

"Daring to touch the Jade Void Palace’s people, could it be that this Phoenix Sect also has a great backing?"

"A mere Sixth-Rate Sect, what great backing could they have?"

Seeing Chen Yu arrive, the crowd of onlookers immediately grew larger, and their chatter spread once more.

But as Chen Yu approached Su Han and the others, without so much as a glance, he said icily, "Sect competitions are grand events where bloodshed is inappropriate. However, the disciples of the Jade Void Palace must not die in vain. Whoever laid hands, pick out ten people to accompany the dead in burial, and sever your own heart meridian—only then can this matter be put to rest."

"And who are you, exactly?"

No sooner had Chen Yu’s words fallen than Nangong Yu emerged from the crowd behind, speaking indifferently, "I killed them. Do you want me to sever my own heart meridian, or do you expect my One Slash Palace to select ten people to accompany your presumptuous and arrogant disciples in death?"

Chen Yu’s expression turned icy as he abruptly turned his head.

But when he saw Nangong Yu, his pupils constricted and he couldn’t help but step back, the coldness on his face vanishing in an instant.

"One Slash Palace... Young Palace of Jade?" Chen Yu’s expression turned grave.

His words fell, and immediately the surrounding crowd burst into uproar.

"One Slash Palace... Young Palace?"

"No wonder he dares to kill people from the Jade Void Palace; so the Phoenix Sect is backed by One Slash Palace!"

"Heh heh, this will be a good show to watch, a clash between two Super Sects. It’s hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker."

"So you do recognize me."

Nangong Yu glanced at Chen Yu, speaking indifferently, "The disciples of the Jade Void Palace are arrogant and domineering, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. On such a grand occasion of the sect competition, in front of Dragon Martial City, they arrogantly drove away sects that came to participate in the competition. Tell me, what should the crime be for such a misdeed?"

"This... This must be a misunderstanding."

Chen Yu took a deep breath; although he was at the Pseudo-Emperor Realm and an elder of the Jade Void Palace, in comparison with Nangong Yu’s status, he was far too inferior.

Just how formidable the One Slash Palace was might be a matter of speculation to others, but they from the Super Sects were all too aware.

The profundity of a Super Sect was terrifyingly deep, and they understood this very well. Yet One Slash Palace had managed to sweep away the existing Super Sect and directly ascended to the ranks of the Top Ten Super Sects, a testament to its formidable strength.

Even the Jade Void Palace had a profound wariness of One Slash Palace and would not provoke them lightly.

At this moment, although they knew that it certainly wasn’t Nangong Yu who had killed Yang Wu and the others, since Nangong Yu had now stood up to support the Phoenix Sect, if they wanted to move against anyone from the Phoenix Sect again, they would have to give it serious thought.

It was only the killing of a few disciples, after all, a matter that might be blown out of proportion or played down. Chen Yu was no fool and immediately grasped the significance.

However, Chen Yu harbored an exceedingly strong killing intent towards the Phoenix Sect.

The name Phoenix Sect might be unknown to the other sects, but it echoed like thunder among the Top Ten Super Sects.

Whether it was inside the Gate of Deer Chasing, where the heavenly talents of the great super sects were captured or slain, or the destruction of the Sect of the Battle God’s strongholds, or even within Mountain of the Divine Medicine where they killed five super sects’ disciples, a total of one hundred and fifty thousand, all of these actions had deeply imprinted the Phoenix Sect in the minds of these super sects.

If it weren’t for their prohibitions on spreading the word, which would tarnish the face of the Super Sects, to the point that many of their own disciples were unaware of these events, the Phoenix Sect would probably be extremely famous across the entire Dragon Martial Continent by now.

"What misunderstanding? Do you think this is a misunderstanding?"

Nangong Yu gestured towards Su Han, who immediately tossed the Memory Crystal to Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu caught it and then threw it to Chen Yu, saying coldly, "Everything that happened outside the city is recorded in this Memory Crystal. The sect contest and the opening of the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal are decrees of the Dragon Martial Intent. If the disciples of Jade Void Palace chase away other sects coming to participate in the contest on their own initiative, they are defying the other nine Great Super Sects, they are defying the Dragon Martial Intent!"

Chen Yu’s expression darkened. He had originally planned to let the matter go, even though Zhang Yang was his Direct Disciple. He had more than one Direct Disciple, and if one died, so be it.

But what he hadn’t expected was for Nangong Yu to actually hit back, refusing to let it go.

With the aid of the Memory Crystal, Chen Yu’s Divine Sense swept through it, and he immediately knew what had happened.

If Nangong Yu wasn’t here, whatever happened would be of no concern to him. He could proclaim the dead as alive, and inversing right and wrong was something he, as a power holder, had done many times before.

All he knew was that his disciples had died, and people from Jade Void Palace had been killed.

But now...

"Young Palace of Jade, they acted recklessly and deserve death, and now they are indeed dead. Let us... let this matter rest," Chen Yu said in a low voice.

Nangong Yu stared at him for a moment, then snorted coldly and said no more.

Both parties were Super Sects, and even though she was the Young Palace of One Slash Palace, he, after all, was of the Pseudo-Emperor Realm.

Even if the argument continued, it would lead to no conclusion.

"I’ll take this carriage of yours."

As soon as Nangong Yu finished speaking, without waiting for Chen Yu to respond, she entered the carriage.

The spherical object from before was then tossed by Nangong Yu to the elderly coachman.

Watching as the people from the Phoenix Sect gradually entered the carriage, Chen Yu’s expression turned increasingly grim.

He had come with a mighty display of force, not to mention failing to achieve justice, but Nangong Yu had brazenly seized a carriage from him as well, in what could only be described as a loss of both wife and soldiers.

In the end, just as Su Han was about to enter the carriage, he suddenly spoke up, "Are you Su Baliu?"

Su Han paused, then looked at Chen Yu, "Is there something you need?"
