Chapter 1917 - Great Elder
Behind the hall door was the secluded cultivation grounds of the Great Clan Elder of the Dragon Clan, Gu Keng.
After escaping from the Hidden Spirit Mountain Range, he had been waiting here for Gu Keng. After all, the woman from the Hidden Spirit Cave had escaped. In the entire Dragon Clan, the only person who could contend against her was the Great Elder Gu Keng, who was also a Sky Emperor.
Of course, this was only his hope.
In reality, things might not look good. That woman had been in the Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace for countless years, and her time to be promoted to the Heavenly Emperor Realm had also far surpa.s.sed Gu Keng"s. Once they started to fight, even if Gu Keng occupied the territory of the Dragon City, he was afraid that he would not be a match for that woman.
Once Gu Keng was defeated, it would definitely not be a good thing for the Dragon Clan.
So, Cang Xu also communicated with the remnant thoughts of the Dragon G.o.d and asked him to place down a Dragon G.o.d"s Token to gather all the Sky King creatures in the "Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace". Those Heavenly Kings naturally could not threaten a Heavenly Emperor Stage powerhouse. The reason they had brought them here was not to fight with that woman, but to have other uses.
If he could operate it well, it would be of great use.
As he thought about the numerous heavenly kings that had gathered at the foot of the mountain, a cruel and bloodthirsty malevolence flashed across his eyes.
"Rumble …"
A deep, trembling sound suddenly rang out, and the door to the hall suddenly vanished.
In an instant, a terrifying killing intent gushed out from within, as though it had condensed into reality, and frantically spread throughout this s.p.a.ce. In just a blink of an eye, it had filled up every inch of the surrounding s.p.a.ce. Cangxu felt as if he had fallen into a cave of ice as a chill arose from the depths of his soul.
"Greetings, Grand Elder."
Cangxu felt a chill in his heart as he hurriedly bowed.
When Cang Xu raised his head to look, the sound of heavy footsteps suddenly rang out. It was as if a huge hammer was pounding on a drum, one after the other. It seemed as if the rumbling sound was echoing in the depths of one"s soul, causing one"s soul to be scattered. Cangxu quickly circulated the power in his body to the maximum to prevent his mind from being distracted.
In the next moment, a blood-red figure appeared at the door to the hall.
It was a young man, tall and slender, with a face as beautiful as jade. His long hair was scattered carelessly behind his head, and he wore a blood-red robe that seemed to be condensed from fresh blood. A terrifying baleful aura surged in all directions, making him look like a G.o.d of death that had just walked out of h.e.l.l.
This man was the Great Clan Elder of Dragon Clan, Gu Keng.
"Heavenly Emperor Glazed Light has escaped?" Gu Keng stared at Cang Xu, his eyes glimmering faintly with a blood-red light, filled with a bone-chilling coldness.
"Exactly."
Cang Xu bowed his head and quickly responded.
However, this Heavenly Emperor Stage powerhouse standing in front of him, made him feel as if he was facing a towering mountain, and a terrifying sense of oppression was involuntarily born from the depths of his soul, making him want to prostrate and pay his respects.
At this moment, after hearing Gu Keng"s question, Cang Wen did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.
Furthermore, the gap between the two wasn"t only in terms of strength and detail, but also in terms of status. Great Elder and Second Elder were both elders of Dragon Clan. However, the only person who was truly in charge of the Dragon Clan was Great Clan Elder Gu Keng.
However, Great Elder Gu Keng was the spokesperson for the Dragon G.o.d.
As the only Heavenly Emperor in the Dragon Clan, in the Dragon City, the Great Clan Elder"s dignity and prestige was something that no expert in the Dragon Clan would dare to offend.
Cang Xu paused for a second, carefully looked at Gu Keng, then said: "Great Elder, after I confirmed that woman was free, I took the initiative to communicate with the Dragon G.o.d"s will and issue the Dragon G.o.d"s Token. I have gathered all the life forms of the Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace, and quite a number of them are here now."
"You"re worried that I"m not her match?"
Gu Keng"s eyes slightly narrowed as he spoke in a low and deep voice. His gaze fell on Cang Xu, and his gaze was actually as sharp and sharp as a blade, as if he wanted to completely pierce through Cang Xu"s soul.
"I don"t dare!"
Cangxu"s heart trembled, and his face paled slightly. Cold sweat flowed out from his forehead as he felt a chill run from his spine to the top of his head.
After staying in the Dragon City for so many years, Cang Xun knew very well about the grand elder"s temperament. If what he had done truly dissatisfied the Great Clan Elder, even if he was the Second Clan Elder of Dragon Clan, Gu Keng would not have the slightest bit of mercy when he punished him.
Although the thing he did was for the sake of the Dragon Clan and to be cautious, it was clear that he did not trust Gu Tie"s strength and felt that he could not match up to the woman in the Hidden Spirit Cave. Gu Qishao"s earlier words had directly pointed out his concerns, making him feel very bad.
However, just when he felt that he would not be able to escape this calamity, Gu Keng suddenly laughed, "Your worry is completely correct, I am indeed not a match for that woman from the Spirit Hidden Cave. The Celestial King was divided into the lower, middle and upper echelons, and the Celestial Emperor was the same. I am just a middle level Sky Emperor, but she is … "
"Upper Sky Emperor!"
The moment he spat out the last four runes, an inexplicable look flashed across his eyes. He sighed and said, "All these years, I have been cultivating in seclusion, hoping to catch up with her. Unfortunately, my time to become a Celestial Emperor is still too short compared to her. Back then, she was tied down by the Mountain Split Seal, and I couldn"t do anything to her, but she couldn"t do anything to me either. Now, she has already escaped from her imprisonment, so once we fight, I will lose for sure. "
Hearing this, Cang Xu could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
"How many heavenly kings were summoned by the "Dragon G.o.d"s Decree"?" A moment later, Gu Keng asked in a deep voice.
"Up until this morning, there are already over one thousand and three hundred heavenly kings rus.h.i.+ng over. If another day or two pa.s.ses, there should be more than two thousand. "Unfortunately, time is a bit tight. If we had enough time, all the heavenly kings and creatures in the Heavenly Imperial Dragon Palace would have gathered here. Maybe more than ten thousand of them could have gathered here." Cangxu let out a somewhat helpless sigh. "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."
"Not even for a day or two."
"I have a strong premonition, that Heavenly Emperor Glazed will not give us too long. She can arrive at the Dragon City anytime soon, and we need to immediately prepare to activate the great formation. With a thousand and three hundred Celestial Kings, we should be able to use it."
At this point, Gu Keng shouted, "Bring them all into the "Myriad Dragon Cave", and immediately go!"
"Yes, Great Elder!"
Cang Xi respectfully replied and left. A moment later, his figure disappeared from this s.p.a.ce.
Gu Keng withdrew his gaze from the direction Cang Xu left in, and his eyes became as cold as ice. He humphed to himself, "Liu Li, this Dragon City is the place where you will die!"
