Chapter 1627 - 1624: News from the Cloud Dragon Palace!
Previously, the defeated generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty were all in despair, and they approached Li Chen, requesting to lead the army back to avenge their deceased parents and wives.
Upon hearing this news, Li Chen was greatly astonished.
He personally appointed generals, ordering Wang Chao, Helian Ba, Hee Wansui, Wuo Xiang, Li Tianzhen, Liu Wudi, and Sunx Chao to lead seven armies, totaling three million troops, to march grandly toward the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The Great Zhou Dynasty, whose national strength had already been halved, encountered internal conflict, causing its overall strength to be halved again.
The overall strength was less than one-fifth of what it was before!
Hei Guang never imagined that the Hann Dynasty’s advance would be so swift.
In haste, he could only gather a million disorganized troops, falsely claiming they numbered five million, to fend off the Hann Dynasty’s attack.
Hei Guang seized power through a coup, brutally suppressing anyone who disobeyed him.
Moreover, as long as anyone dared to criticize him, he would massacre their entire family.
Thus, even though he had been in power for only three months, he had scattered the people’s hearts.
The hastily assembled disorganized troops experienced in-fighting due to Hei Guang’s brutal methods.
Thus, upon their first encounter, Hei Guang’s so-called five million troops quickly crumbled like a landslide.
There were countless surrenders!
Seeing the situation was dire, Hei Guang had no choice but to flee alone.
In just three months, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which spanned a territory of over ten million square kilometers, was completely destroyed, and all its lands were absorbed into the Hann Dynasty.
Before Hei Guang fled, Li Tianzhen, who had previously worked with him, reported a very important piece of information to Li Chen.
Hei Guang was the direct disciple of Yun Chong, the Inner Sect Grand Elder of Cloud Dragon Palace.
The reason he could successfully carry out a coup and bloodbath the Great Zhou Royal Family was largely due to the backing of Cloud Dragon Palace.
Upon learning this news, a smug, cold smile immediately curled at the corners of Li Chen’s mouth.
Hehe, it seems true that enemies often cross paths!
Completely unexpected, Old Yunlong’s lair is also on this Tianwu Star Domain.
Li Chen further inquired about the exact location of Cloud Dragon Palace’s lair.
Yet no one knew the specific location.
However, Li Chen was not anxious about this.
Since they already knew that Cloud Dragon Palace’s lair was on this barren Star Domain.
Its complete annihilation is only a matter of time.
...
Hei Guang, sensing the situation was not good, fled back to the lair of Cloud Dragon Palace overnight and found his master, the Grand Elder Yun Chong.
Since God Monarch Yunlong went to the Red Flame Star Domain and killed his old enemy, Red Sun God Monarch, he has been stationed at the Red Flame Star Domain.
Thus, the lair at Tianwu Star Domain was only manned by Inner Sect Grand Elder Yun Chong.
This Yun Chong is also a genuine Mahayana Divine Monarch, though he broke through forcefully.
This lifetime cultivation peak only reaches the early stage of Mahayana Divine Monarch, unable to advance any further.
This caused Yun Chong’s temperament to become volatile, extremely irritable.
Now, he learned that his direct disciple Hei Guang was driven back like a homeless dog, which angered him immensely.
"Li Chen, how dare you bully my Cloud Dragon Palace disciple, I see you’re tired of living!"
"Disciple, come, lead me to find that Li Chen brat, let’s have revenge!"
God Monarch Yunlong hadn’t reported a single word about Li Chen.
Therefore, this Grand Elder Yun Chong, until now, did not know that Li Chen had long been Cloud Dragon Palace’s mortal enemy.
On this day, Li Chen was teaching Li Yun and Little Shitou how to cultivate.
The clear, sunny skies suddenly turned cloudy, and faintly, the rumbling of thunder could be heard.
Noticing these changes, Li Chen’s expression slightly darkened.
It seems an enemy is approaching.
Moreover, judging by this aura, the person should be a genuine Mahayana Divine Monarch.
Could it be that old Yunlong has arrived?
However, as soon as this thought appeared in Li Chen’s mind, he denied it.
He had fought with God Monarch Yunlong and was familiar with his aura.
Judging from this, the incoming person definitely wasn’t God Monarch Yunlong.
If not God Monarch Yunlong, then who could it be?
Just as Li Chen was lost in thought, "crack," a bolt of lightning suddenly tore through the void.
Soon, a thin figure appeared, standing amidst the lightning.
"Li Chen, come out and meet your death!"
Seeing a Mahayana Divine Monarch charging in, the Hann Dynasty was thrown into shock.
They were fearful, restless.
Only the Wang Family barely managed to stay calm.
After all, they had seen Li Chen kill Wu Badao, King of the Great Wu Dynasty.
That Wu Badao was also a Mahayana Divine Monarch.
Li Chen’s ability to kill Wu Badao demonstrated his capacity to slay a Mahayana Divine Monarch.
Despite this, Wang Chao had some concerns.
As far as he knew, Cloud Dragon Palace is a Super Sect with at least two Mahayana Divine Monarchs.
If they attacked together, no matter how monstrous Li Chen was, he might find it difficult to fend off.
Seeing the dark clouds converging, the turbulent winds and thunder, various terrifying phenomena emerging one after another.
Xie Wanwan, Li Yun, Little Shitou and others inexplicably felt fear.
Soon, they looked at Li Chen with anxious eyes.
Li Chen gave them a slight smile, said confidently: "Just a minor clown, I’ll go kill him now!"
Seeing the confident smile on Li Chen’s face, Xie Wanwan, Li Yun, Little Shitou felt slightly more at ease.
After calming them, Li Chen said to Xie Wanwan, "Wanwan, watch over Yun’er and them, I’ll be back shortly!"
Xie Wanwan nodded vigorously like a pecking chick.
"Hmm, you be careful!"
Li Chen smiled, said nothing more.
Soon, his figure transformed into a streak of light, soaring to kill in the sky.
Li Chen stood in the void, gazing at the Inner Sect Grand Elder Yun Chong, expressionless and asked:
"Are you Yun Chong, the Inner Sect Grand Elder of Cloud Dragon Palace?"
Seeing Li Chen so youthful, Yun Chong couldn’t help but be startled.
His sinister eyes slightly narrowed, filled with astonished cold glints.
"Indeed, I am Yun Chong, the Inner Sect Grand Elder of Cloud Dragon Palace. You’re that monster Li Chen, right?"
After speaking, he scrutinized Li Chen again, squinting arrogantly, saying: "I see your talent is good; killing you would be a pity. How about this, today I’ll be extraordinarily kind and spare your life. However, you must join Cloud Dragon Palace and become my direct disciple. How do you feel about that?"
Hei Guang, respectfully waiting by the side, was frozen hearing his master’s words.
"Master, didn’t we come to destroy this monster? Why did you..."
