#542 - Battle with Asgard

Hiss—

Xu Fengqiu's words shocked everyone.

What does he mean?

Is Xu Fengqiu going to war with the Immortal Palace?

No way?

Is he crazy?

Is he really going to fight?

"Sect Leader Xu."

Another sect leader hurriedly said, "I know Sect Leader Xu is angry, but please don't be impulsive."

"Sect Leader Xu, everything can be discussed."

"That's right, Sect Leader Xu, we can talk."

"…"

Xu Fengqiu glanced at the people who were speaking.

"Are you all saying that I, this Emperor, can still negotiate with the Immortal Palace after being framed by them?"

"Very well, you can all go back to your sects and prepare for war."

Their expressions immediately changed.

Damn it.

This Xu Fengqiu is a madman.

It's one thing for you to go to war with the Immortal Palace.

But at this critical moment, you dare to include them as well?

Are you really afraid of nothing?

"Good! Good, good, good!"

A powerful figure from the Immortal Palace, at the decision-making level, revealed anger on his face.

"Since Sect Leader Xu dares to kill the Sect Leader of my Immortal Palace within my Immortal Palace, then there's no need for further words. Regardless of what you, Xu Fengqiu, do, my Immortal Palace will never let this matter rest."

Xu Fengqiu said, "Don't misunderstand, everyone. It was your Immortal Palace that set up a trap to kill me, which is why I retaliated and killed Jun Tianchao. Don't try to absolve your Immortal Palace of all responsibility, as if I, Xu Fengqiu, am the one instigating trouble. Of course, you can try to turn black into white, but it's absolutely impossible! Regardless of what your Immortal Palace does, I, Xu Fengqiu, will definitely destroy your Immortal Palace, unless…"

Xu Fengqiu said indifferently, "The lineage of Jun Tianchao must atone with their deaths, then I may spare your Immortal Palace."

This was another impossible demand.

"What? Is the Immortal Palace not planning to let me leave? Are you trying to take advantage of the fact that I am alone in your Immortal Palace to eliminate me?" Xu Fengqiu asked.

"Hmph! What if I let you leave? I hope you, Xu Fengqiu, will do as you say and actually dare to attack my Immortal Palace. Otherwise, this old man will look down on you."

Xu Fengqiu stood there with his hands behind his back, "Of course. When the time comes, the first person I will kill is you, old thing. Farewell."

With that, Xu Fengqiu leaped into the void.

"Arrogant! Arrogant! Utterly arrogant!"

The Immortal Palace was filled with rage.

No one expected such a thing to happen.

"This…"

The sect leaders of the various major sects exchanged glances.

They didn't know what to do either.

"Since such a thing has happened, we won't stay any longer."

"Farewell."

"Farewell."

"…"

"I won't see you off."

The crowd also left one after another.

Subsequently, the Immortal Palace also began its investigation.

The results of the investigation were indeed similar to what Xu Fengqiu had said.

It was clear that Jun Tianchao had prepared various heaven-defying methods in advance within the secret realm.

Indeed, a very superficial fact.

But…

Even though they weren't in the right, even though it was their Immortal Palace Sect Leader who had initiated this matter.

Jun Tianchao was killed by Xu Fengqiu.

If Jun Tianchao hadn't died, the Immortal Palace might have lowered their heads slightly.

But since the Sect Leader had been killed, even if they weren't in the right, they had to fight Xu Fengqiu to the end.

"Who else knows about this matter?"

An elder of the Immortal Palace glanced at the powerful figures of the Immortal Palace within the hall.

It was clear that he was extremely angry.

As the Sect Leader of the Immortal Palace, Jun Tianchao was naturally very important.

However, compared to the entire Immortal Palace, Jun Tianchao was just a top expert of the Immortal Palace, a top expert of one of the Immortal Palace's lineages.

The impact was great, but it had no impact on the overall strength of the Immortal Palace.

No one spoke.

"No one is speaking, huh?"

A strong man said, "Even if this matter wasn't done by Jun Tianchao alone, at this moment, no one else will stand up."

The crowd nodded.

None of them had done this with Jun Tianchao.

But in their hearts, they felt that it was definitely not just Jun Tianchao alone.

Of course, there was also that possibility.

But now, no one would think that this matter was done by Jun Tianchao alone.

They would even think that it was a conspiracy of their entire Immortal Palace.

"This matter is a scandal of my Immortal Palace. Not only did we do such a thing, but the Sect Leader even died within his own sect! Furthermore, Xu Fengqiu openly killed several powerful figures within my Immortal Palace, which has simply caused my Immortal Palace to lose all face!"

"It's useless to say all this now. Now we need to consider the matter of a great war with the Eternal First God Sect. This Xu Fengqiu is a madman, and he will definitely do what he says!"

"It's simply like hitting a stone with an egg! What does he rely on?"

"That's right, what does he rely on? Since Xu Fengqiu wants to die, then we'll grant him his wish."

"But everyone, the problem now is that the passage to the Eight Desolations may open soon. This battle will inevitably affect the entire Nine Provinces. After the battle, how should we deal with the consequences of the opening of the Eight Desolations passage?"

"Is this what we need to consider now? No matter what the consequences are, none of that matters. The Sect Leader of my Immortal Palace was killed within the sect, and this matter must never be allowed to rest."

"Then… Xu Fengqiu said he was going to attack my Immortal Palace, should we… take the initiative?"

"No need, let him come! Wait for him to come!"

…

The news that Immortal Palace Sect Leader Jun Tianchao was killed by Xu Fengqiu within the Immortal Palace also shocked the entire Nine Provinces.

"What's going on? The sect leaders of the major forces went to the Immortal Palace. Why was the Immortal Palace Sect Leader killed by Xu Fengqiu within the Immortal Palace?"

"I heard that the Immortal Palace set up a trap, and the purpose of the trap was to kill Xu Fengqiu, but they underestimated Xu Fengqiu's strength. Xu Fengqiu not only escaped, but even retaliated and killed Jun Tianchao!"

"Is it this kind of thing again? Before it was the Heavenly Mystic Emperor, and this time it's the Immortal Palace. Even the Immortal Palace has failed. It seems that wanting to kill Xu Fengqiu is indeed an almost impossible thing to do."

"Heh heh heh, it's truly sad. The most powerful sect in my Nine Provinces is actually so despicable and ridiculous! It is the misfortune of my Nine Provinces."

"This Immortal Palace is no longer the Immortal Palace it once was. The Profound Yin Palace was doing evil in the Nine Provinces, and they turned a blind eye to it. In the end, Emperor Feng gathered forces from all sides and eliminated this scourge of the Nine Provinces. I think there's no problem with them doing this kind of thing. I believe in Emperor Feng."

"That's right, but… what does the Eternal First God Sect rely on to be able to shake the Immortal Palace?"

"…"

Xu Fengqiu returned to the Eternal First God Sect.

And the news has basically arrived.

At this moment, the entire Eternal First God Sect was also plunged into silence.

They were indeed very strong, and they had grown their sect by fighting all the way here.

But they didn't expect that after not being stable for long, they would actually have to go to war with the Immortal Palace of the Nine Provinces?
