Chapter 1644: Chapter 1334: A Hidden Immortal King in the Land of Chaos?
Lu Chen directly took the Memory Pearl from Min Guanghua’s hand and then opened it.
The next moment, the scene inside the Memory Pearl appeared in the hall.
After listening to Lu Jing’s words, Lu Chen chuckled. Lu Jing was truly resorting to any means necessary to deal with Lu Jingfu.
He was someone even the Super Forces wanted to kill. If those Super Forces learned that Lu Jing was harboring him, Lu Jing would inevitably be targeted.
At this moment, Min Guanghua was trembling on the side, fearing that Lu Chen might kill him to silence him.
After destroying the Memory Pearl, Lu Chen glanced at Min Guanghua and then said, “Regarding how you connected with King Anyuan, I won’t pursue it. Since you are now under King Anyuan’s banner, stay honestly in the Land of Chaos. If I find out you have other intentions, no matter who you turn to, I will find a way to take care of you.”
Min Guanghua quickly said, “Rest assured, My Lord. I will remain honestly in Anda City.”
Lu Chen then said, “Alright, if there’s nothing else, return to your Anda City.”
Min Guanghua bowed to Lu Chen again, “I take my leave, My Lord.”
As those words fell, Min Guanghua turned and left White Feather City. After Min Guanghua left, Lu Zhengze approached Lu Chen, “My Lord, what should we do now?”
There were more and more people aware of Lu Chen’s identity. If this news leaked, there might be Super Forces sending experts to the Land of Chaos.
Lu Chen said, “Since King Anyuan has already decided to use a borrowed blade to kill, we cannot let King Anyuan down.”
“However, if King Anyuan wants to use a borrowed blade, we need to sharpen this blade well. Go and tally up what cultivation resources we’re lacking and make a list, then send someone to give the list to Min Guanghua.”
King Anyuan wants to use a borrowed blade, so making him the laborer shouldn’t come without a price.
Moreover, King Anyuan clearly said in the Memory Pearl that if there were any cultivation resources needed, feel free to ask him. Since King Anyuan said so, wouldn’t it be wasting a brotherly gesture if we didn’t request some cultivation resources?
Lu Zhengze immediately understood Lu Chen’s meaning and said, “Yes, My Lord, I will handle it right away.”
On his way back to Anda City, Min Guanghua kept pondering a question: logically, Zhan Mo should have been transmitted to King Anyuan’s palace before him, so why did King Anyuan appoint him as the envoy instead of Zhan Mo?
Could it be that the Transmission Array malfunctioned and sent Zhan Mo elsewhere?
Were it not for the Blood Oath, Min Guanghua would have wanted to ask King Anyuan if he had seen Zhan Mo. If Zhan Mo indeed got sent elsewhere and leaked the news about the Land of Chaos, it could raise suspicions among certain people.
Though Zhan Mo might not know Lu Chen’s identity, someone might piece together some clues.
After all, the Land of Chaos is a place with little Immortal Aura, and someone from there attracting King Anyuan’s attention with a True Immortal being specifically sent, why?
Min Guanghua sighed, hoping Zhan Mo wouldn’t speak about matters of the Land of Chaos before seeing King Anyuan, or else it would be troublesome.
…
At this moment.
The Royal City of King Guangren, Heaven Prison.
An Immortal, covered in blood, was sealed within a Formation, barely alive, evidently having undergone severe interrogation.
At this time, a man dressed in black scale armor arrived at the southern gate. Looking at the barely breathing Zhan Mo, he said, “Speak, what were you looking for King Anyuan for?”
Zhan Mo weakly said, “Sir, let me see King Anyuan first, and then we’ll talk.”
Since being transmitted to King Guangren’s Palace, Zhan Mo had been captured and severely beaten. Especially when the soldiers heard he was looking for King Anyuan, they used even more cruel interrogation methods to torment him, which were unbearable even for a Heavenly Immortal like him.
At this point, Zhan Mo still didn’t realize he was in the wrong place. He thought they had mistaken him for a spy from somewhere else, which was why they captured and interrogated him.
Seeing Zhan Mo unwilling to speak, the man said, “Fine, since you want to see the king, I’ll let you see the king. I want to see if an Immortal from the Land of Chaos has anything important to say.”
Saying this, Wang Chixuan instructed the soldiers at the cell door, “Drag him out and take him to see the king.”
With those words, Wang Chixuan headed to the palace of King Guangren, Lu Jingfu.
At this moment, in the Meeting Hall of the palace, Lu Jingfu listened to the report from the Heaven Prison soldiers, feeling puzzled.
Searching for King Anyuan?
Came to his palace looking for his nemesis?
What was this person thinking?
Such a brainless person surely couldn’t be a spy.
As Lu Jingfu contemplated this, Wang Chixuan entered the hall, “My Lord, I have brought the person.”
The next moment, two soldiers dragged Zhan Mo into the hall.
When Zhan Mo saw Lu Jingfu on the throne, he became excited, finally seeing King Anyuan.
He knelt on the ground without hesitation, “Are you King Anyuan? Your servant pays respects, My Lord!”
Hearing these words, Lu Jingfu looked at Wang Chixuan with a confused gaze. Wang Chixuan said, “My Lord, he insisted on seeing you.”
Lu Jingfu immediately understood Wang Chixuan’s meaning and then said, “Speak, what brings you to my presence?”
Zhan Mo, without any hesitation, extracted past memories in the form of a Memory Pearl, sending it toward Lu Jingfu as he said, “My Lord, the envoy you sent to the Land of Chaos ten years ago was killed.”
Envoy?
Lu Jingfu thought to himself, when did he send an envoy to the Land of Chaos?
Wait, this person mistook him for King Anyuan, which means King Anyuan sent an envoy to the Land of Chaos ten years ago?
Thinking of the Land of Chaos, Lu Jingfu frowned slightly.
Why would King Anyuan send an envoy to the Land of Chaos, a barren place?
At this moment, the Memory Pearl extracted by Zhan Mo flew to Lu Jingfu. Without hesitation, Lu Jingfu read the memories within the Memory Pearl.
When he saw an Earth Immortal kill a True Immortal, his frown deepened.
Such a powerful being in a place like the Land of Chaos?
Wait, the final strength displayed by that Earth Immortal was clearly not typical for an Earth Immortal, but rather possessed by an Immortal King?
The Land of Chaos harbors an Immortal King?
What is an Immortal King doing in a place without Immortal Aura?
Could King Anyuan have sent an envoy to the Land of Chaos to recruit this Immortal King?
Lu Jingfu momentarily did not connect this Immortal King with Lu Chen. Although he thought of Lu Chen when he heard about the Land of Chaos, Lu Chen had reportedly entered the Chaotic Sea over a billion years ago. Lu Jingfu assumed Lu Chen’s bones had long vanished.
Lu Jingfu revealed a slight smile, “Interesting, I didn’t expect such a place as the Land of Chaos to harbor a suspected Immortal King.”
The envoy sent by King Anyuan ran into trouble with that Immortal King and was killed by the Immortal King. In this case, King Anyuan and that Immortal King have fallen out.
Can he seize this opportunity to recruit that Immortal King?
After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
If he can recruit that Immortal King, it would enhance his chances of ascending to that position.
