Chapter 535 A Visit from the Winged Race!
Chu Xun was chatting with the father and sons of the Yue Family in the main hall of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy.
He told them what he had seen and heard in the Subterranean Devils Realm.
“There are human beings in the Subterranean Devils Realm?!”
Yue Fandie and his sons were shocked.
“That’s unlikely.” Yue Fandie frowned. “The people of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy have been guarding the entrance to the Subterranean Devils Realm for generations. I’ve read the Lost History more than once. According to the Lost History, the Subterranean Devils were defeated and sealed by the Assembly of Immortals in ancient times. How could there be human beings in the Subterranean Devils Realm?”
Chu Xun had been doubtful about this matter. However, he could not figure it now, so he put it aside for the moment.
“Have the Assembly of Immortals and alien races made any big move recently?” Chu Xun asked.
“I am just about to tell you that,” Yue Fandie said, “Mu Ziran said that a Chosen One of the Assembly of Immortals would come to the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy. However, according to the information we have, Zu Si did come to the northwest area, but he did not come to the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy. He left soon after he got here.”
“Zu Si?” Chu Xun was not here at that time, so he didn’t know who Zu Si was.
“According to the conversation between Mu Ziran and the Zombie race, they trust that man named Zu Si very much. As they said, Zu Si’s cultivation level is not high, but he is an unparalleled meticulous schemer. They also plan to build a Transfer Formation and ask more people of the Assembly of Immortals to come.”
“Transfer Formation?” Chu Xun frowned. “If they really build a Transfer Formation, it will be a disaster for the Earth.”
“There’s another thing. Not long ago, that giant hand appeared again and sent over ten Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals. However, it was completely destroyed by lightning this time,” Yue Fandie said.
Chu Xun nodded slightly. “It seems that the rules of the Earth are awakening very quickly and have already started resisting the intruders.”
The awakening of the rules of the Earth was not a good thing for the Assembly of Immortals. That was why they wanted to build a Transfer Formation.
“Strangely, those Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals soon disappeared without a trace after they were sent here. Since then, there has been no news about them at all.”
Chu Xun thought for a while. If he was not mistaken, the purpose of those Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals who came here was to build a Transfer Formation.
“Mr. Yue, please send your men to find out the whereabouts of those Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals,” said Chu Xun. He had a bad feeling.
“Don’t worry. I’ve already thought of it and sent people to investigate,” Yue Fandie said.
Chu Xun nodded and narrowed his eyes slightly. “The Assembly of Immortals and the alien land, you’d better behave yourselves and not make any trouble. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to wipe you out.”
He had no time to waste. He had only found the Phoenix Flower and Fiery Green Lotus, so he needed to find the other eighteen ingredients of the Life Extension Elixir, all of which were rare herbs.
After chatting with Yue Fandie and his sons for a while and learning about what had happened in the outside world in the past few months, Chu Xun pondered for a long time. In the end, he logged into the Martial Tao Forum, which he had not logged in for a long time, and unloaded the information on the eighteen herbs needed to prepare the Life Extension Elixir.
He did not expect to gain much from what he did, but it would be a good thing if he could get some clues.
Chu Xun’s every move could attract much attention.
He had been missing for over fifty years. After he reappeared, he killed Kuang Zhan and several others, showed up in the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy, and went to the Subterranean Devils Realm. The outsiders did not know that he had reappeared.
After he logged into the forum, many funny things happened.
Someone asked, “Are you really Chu the Devil?”
Chu Xun replied, “You bet.”
“Bro, don’t believe what he said. There have been many people pretending to be Chu the Devil these years. Don’t be fooled by him.”
“You’re right. Last time, there was a guy who alleged himself to be Chu the Devil. He said that his mother was sick and he needed money for treatment, so I gave him tens of thousands. In the end, he ran away with the money. Don’t ever let me find him. Otherwise, I’ll surely kill him.”
Some people said to Chu Xun, “Bro, your trick is lame and outdated. Everyone knows that Chu the Devil has been missing for fifty years. It’s better to say that you are the First Emperor of Qin and need money to unify the Earth. Maybe some stupid fellow will believe you.”
Chu Xun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Uncle, there are many things you don’t know because you’ve been missing for fifty years. There are several thousand people who impersonated you and deceived others online. Some people even said that they were your apprentices,” Yue Jingchou said.
Chu Xun was surprised. “Were there so many people impersonating me?”
“Uncle, watch this,” Yue Jingchou said. He began to speak online, “I’m Yue Jingchou from the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy. I can prove that he is the real Chu the Devil. He’s come back.”
“Everyone, did you see that? These two people are partners who team up to deceive others. Don’t fall for their tricks!”
“Well, if you’re Yue Jingchou, I’m Yue Fandie. Where are you, my son? Are you trying to trick me? What a stupid trick!”
Yue Jingchou grew livid with rage. He nearly threw his cell phone to the floor. He replied, “Where are you, you son of a bitch? I’m going to find you right now.”
“Did you see that, everyone? The liar’s cover has been blown, and he is ashamed into anger. He knows that he can’t fool us, so he is going to find us and rob us in the open,” someone said.
Yue Jingchou was infuriated. He shouted angrily that he was going to kill those bastards.
Chu Xun was amused. “Things online are just like this. Many people say harsh and mean words. After all, nobody knows who is on the other end of the wire. In fact, it is possible to find out who he is, but it will take a lot of effort and time.”
Chu Xun stayed in the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy for a few days. When he was about to leave, someone came for him.
“The Winged race?” He was a little surprised when he heard the name of the visitor’s race.
“He said he had something to discuss with you,” Yue Fandie said.
“As the saying goes, ‘when the fox preaches, look to your geese.’ He must be up to no good. Let me kill him,” said Yue Jingchou.
Yue Fandie slapped Yue Jingchou in the head and scolded, “Watch your language and don’t say anything funny! You stay put and stop messing around.”
Yue Jingchou rubbed his nose in embarrassment. Only then did he realize that he was wrong.
“Let him in. Let’s see what he’s up to,” Chu Xun said after thinking for a while.
After a short while, an elder of the Winged race in light armor with a strong aura walked in under the guidance of a disciple of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy.
“I’m Xie Qingyun, the sixth senior of the Winged race. I’ve heard a lot about Chu the Devil and Lord Yue.” Xie Qingyun had a strikingly elegant bearing.
“Please have a seat.” Chu Xun smiled faintly.
“Thanks!” Xie Qingyun took his seat with a smile on his face.
“How did you know that I’m in the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy?” Chu Xun asked casually.
“To tell you the truth, Zu Si has guessed that you’re here,” Xie Qingyun said, “the Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals, including Kuang Zhan and the others, went to Gujiang City to rescue Wu Keyin, but they were either killed or injured. Later, Mu Ziran joined hands with the Zombie race to put pressure on the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy, but he never returned. When Zu Si came to the northwest area and found that the disciples of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy were patrolling normally, he knew that something bad had happened to Mu Ziran. Therefore, he guessed that you had turned up. Moreover, I’m afraid that you, the renowned Chu the Devil, is probably the only one in the world that can kill all those Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals.”
The look on Yue Fandie’s face changed slightly. “No wonder Zu Si turned around and left as soon as he arrived in the northwest area. It turns out that he knew that something bad had happened to the people on his side.”
“Zu Si? I’ve heard this name more than one time. I will definitely meet with this Chosen One of the Assembly of Immortals when there is a chance.”
Chu Xun chuckled, revealing his snow-white teeth, which, however, made Xie Qingyun shiver.
“Don’t beat around the bush. What are you doing here in the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy?” Yue Jingchou asked, looking very unhappy.
Xie Qingyun glanced at Yue Fandie and made an obeisance by cupping one hand in the other before his chest. “This must be the Fourth Young Master Yue, a remarkable genius of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy.”
“That’s right, it’s me,” Yue Jingchou said brusquely.
“It’s an honor to meet you at last!” Xie Qingyun cupped one hand in the other before his chest. He was not annoyed.
Chu Xun and Yue Fandie exchanged glances. “There’s more to Xie Qingyun than meets the eye. He shows extraordinary magnanimity.”
However, they didn’t know that although Xie Qingyun was wearing a smile on his face, he was cursing in his heart. Had it not been for the fact that he feared Chu Xun, he would have killed Yue Jingchou already.
Xie Qingyun looked at Yue Fandie and Chu Xun and said, “I’m here to discuss something with you.”
“Just go ahead. There are no outsiders here,” Chu Xun said.
“To be honest, if the Reality Painting were not in your hands, I would never come here to visit you. This visit is no less dangerous than walking on the edge of a blade.” Xie Qingyun smiled bitterly.
Chu Xun smiled secretly. Xie Qingyun was a good emissary. At the very least, his words flattered Chu Xun a lot.
“You are not here to ask for the Reality Painting, are you?” Chu Xun asked with a smile on his face. He had killed four seniors of the Winged race, and now he had four fragments of the Reality Painting.
“Of course not. No matter how courageous I am, I still dare not ask for anything from you.” Xie Qingyun smiled bitterly. “I’m here for cooperation.”
“Cooperation? Tell me about it,” Chu Xun said.
“In fact, the Reality Painting is a treasure map. There are ten pieces of it. If I’m not mistaken, you have four pieces. This time, I took the other six pieces with me when I left home. I came here to work with you and search for the treasure together.”
Chu Xun subconsciously looked at Xie Qingyun’s Storage Ring.
Xie Qingyun’s face stiffened slightly. He said, “I came here alone. I don’t have anything on me.”
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. “It seems that the alien races have checked up on me a lot.”
“Mr. Xie, why did you say that? You came to visit the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy. We will not ask anything from you,” Chu Xun said.
Xie Qingyun smiled without saying anything, but he despised Chu Xun very much in his heart. “Everyone knows that Chu the Devil swindles everyone that he can get his claws into. One can get something from a stingy man, but nobody can get anything from him.”
“Mr. Xie, how are you planning to work together?” Chu Xun asked with a smile on his face.
“In that case, I will call you Mr. Chu.” Xie Qingyun’s face grew serious. “I believe that you should know about the disappearance of the Suspended Mountain, right?”
“The Suspended Mountain?” Chu Xun was confused. He had never heard of such a thing.
“Really? Don’t you know about it?” Xie Qingyun was doubtful. “There have been many rumors about it recently. It is impossible that he has not heard of it.”
“There’s a misunderstanding, Mr. Xie,” Yue Fandie said, “Chu Xun really doesn’t know about that. He has come out of seclusion for only a few days, and I haven’t had time to tell him that yet.”
“What’s going on?” Chu Xun asked.
“I forgot to tell you that a strange mountain appeared in the Mighty Desert at the border. It is suspended tens of feet off the ground, so it is called the Suspended Mountain,” Yue Fandie said.
“You’re wrong, Mr. Yue,” said Xie Qingyun.
“Why?” Yue Fandie was puzzled.
“The so-called Suspended Mountain is actually a palace and a historic site. The key to open it is the Reality Painting,” Xie Qingyun said.
Chu Xun thought to himself, “Now I get it. Had it not been for the four pieces of Reality Painting in my hands, the Winged race wouldn’t have come here to work with me.”
“Mr. Chu, I hope that we can open this historic site together. We can split the things in it proportionally according to the number of the pieces of Reality Painting in our hands. We’ll have six shares, and you will get four shares.”
Chu Xun sneered. “Mr. Xie, you are a little insincere. Now that we will work together to search for the treasures, they should be divided equally between us.”
Xie Qingyun smiled bitterly. “You might not know this, but our six shares are not for the Winged race only. Some Chosen Ones of the Assembly of Immortals, the Lycan race, the Peacock race, and other people will also have a share. In fact, we won’t have much left. However, you alone will get four shares, and they will all be yours.”
“Okay, I agree!” Chu Xun agreed.
“Very good. You are really a decisive person, Mr. Chu.” Xie Qingyun stood up and cupped one hand in the other before his chest. “Well, I’m leaving now. We’ll meet in Flower City in three days.”
Chu Xun nodded and had someone see Xie Qingyun off.
