Chapter 2381 Conspiracy, Provocation
"Welcome, fellow Daoists, to the coronation ceremony of Fairy Xiao Qin, the young city lord of Tianguang City!"
"Now, let's welcome Young City Lord Xiao Qin!"
Xiao Guanghong, the host of the ceremony, rang out in a loud voice.
Surrounded by admirers, Xiao Qin slowly stepped into the void.
She then sat on a colorful throne that had been prepared for her.
solemn!
Domineering!
Solemn!
At this moment, everyone who came to attend the coronation ceremony was captivated by the majesty emanating from Xiao Qin.
Especially the True Immortals of Tianguang City, regardless of their cultivation level, involuntarily knelt on the ground with extremely devout expressions.
"Welcome, Young City Lord!"
"Welcome, Young City Lord!"
"Welcome, Young City Lord!"
……
A loud voice rang out from the crowd.
Soon, the news spread throughout the entire City of Light.
At this moment, many powerful figures watching the ceremony from the viewing platform couldn't help but cast envious glances at Xiao Qin.
Especially from the direction of Guangwu City, Jiuxiao, sitting in the VIP section, looked at Xiao Qin with eyes full of envy and gloom.
"I never imagined that Xiao Qin would become the young city lord of Tianguang City so quickly. It's a pity that my father has hundreds of sons and daughters. Even if I wanted to become the young city lord of Guangwu City, it would probably be extremely difficult!"
"However, although I cannot become the young city lord of Guangwu City, I have no problem causing trouble for Xiao Qin at this coronation ceremony!"
Jiuxiao sneered inwardly and looked at a spirit slave beside him.
This person appears to be only at the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm, yet the murderous aura emanating from him is terrifyingly tangible.
The aura emanating from him was even more terrifying than that of an ordinary early-stage Golden Immortal.
Seeing Jiuxiao's gaze directed at her, Lingnu quickly nodded.
Seeing this, Jiuxiao said nothing more and continued to observe the ceremony.
Little did they know that on the viewing platform of Blood Red City, not far from the Nine Heavens, Blood Red Qing, representing Blood Green, who had come to observe the ceremony, was also looking at Xiao Qin with narrowed eyes.
"Our ten immortal cities in the Tiannan True Immortal Realm are all closely connected. Xiao Qin is only at the early stage of Golden Immortal, yet she has become the young city lord of Tianguang City. It seems that Tianguang City is indeed declining with each generation."
"Wait a minute, we in Crimson City are going to prepare a big gift for Xiao Qin!"
Blood Red's expression was cold and indifferent.
Blood Red Spirit, who was sitting next to him, immediately understood.
"Brother, don't worry. Leave this to me. I happen to be at the early stage of Golden Immortal, so I can challenge Xiao Qin!"
"Then, I can make Xiao Qin lose to me in front of everyone!"
Xue Hongqing nodded seriously: "Yes, Fourth Brother, you're still a bit rusty at these things. If Hongyi were still here, he would actually be more skilled than you. It's a pity..."
"Brother, I know what you're saying. But after investigating for so long, haven't we found the murderer who killed the woman in red?"
"Hehe, we do have some clues. However, the guy who killed the one in red was very good at disguising himself, and our long-term pursuit has stalled again. But one thing is certain: that guy, like you, was at the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm, and his divine sense was extremely powerful. If we search in that direction, we'll definitely find the murderer!"
"Yes, I also hope to find the murderer who killed the woman in red as soon as possible and tear him to pieces."
Aside from the powerful figures from the ten immortal cities on the viewing platform, who were secretly plotting to challenge Xiao Qin and embarrass her, there were others.
Many others also intend to seize this opportunity to become famous overnight.
One of the red-haired men was particularly eye-catching.
"Is that Xiao Qin sitting on the throne? She doesn't seem so impressive after all. Wait, if I were to kill her with a single punch, wouldn't Tianguang City lose face?"
The red-haired man sneered.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a middle-aged man standing next to him sneered, "Ximen, what do you mean by that? Do you really think you're so powerful? Although you've made a name for yourself in the Tiannan True Immortal Realm over the years, it doesn't mean you can actually defeat Fairy Xiaoqin in this situation!"
"You should also know that Xiao Qin has many protectors around her. If you can't even deal with these protectors, then challenging Xiao Qin is just empty talk."
"Dongfang, what do you mean by this? Do you really think that I, Ximen, am no match for those protectors?"
"Hehe, the others are fine, but there is one person you may not be a match for."
As Dongfang spoke, his gaze quickly turned to Chen Xuan.
At that moment, Chen Xuan also noticed the gaze from the east.
The moment their eyes met, a chilling aura suddenly burst forth from the depths of their gazes.
Chen Xuan remained calm, but Dongfang looked away from Chen Xuan.
"See? This person's strength is no less than yours or mine. But he is also one of Xiao Qin's protectors. If you and I cannot defeat this person, then we will have no way to attack Xiao Qin," Dongfang explained with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ximen frowned.
Soon, he looked at Chen Xuan and gave him a strange smile.
"Very good, if the sparring starts later, I'll go and have a go at him!"
……
On the cloud platform, Chen Xuan and the other protectors stood behind Xiao Qin.
However, a smile appeared on Chen Xuan's lips the moment he saw Dongfang and Ximen.
"If I'm not mistaken, these two guys should be Ximen Xue and Dongfang Yao, who are in the top ten on the list that Fairy Xiao gave me, right?"
"Although these two guys are at the same level as me, the murderous aura emanating from them is indeed much stronger than that of an ordinary early-stage Golden Immortal."
"If I don't take action, the other protectors alone probably won't be a match for them."
As Chen Xuan finished speaking, he immediately moved his lips slightly and transmitted his voice to the several protectors beside him.
"When the coronation ceremony is almost over, I'm afraid quite a few people will want to challenge Fairy Xiaoqin. You should be prepared."
"You can deal with the ordinary guys yourselves. As for those top ten on the spectator ranking list, I'll handle them all. No problem, right?"
Chen Xuan's voice rang in the ears of every protector.
Yesterday's sparring session made everyone truly realize just how powerful Chen Xuan really is.
Just one move!
Chen Xuan thwarted them all.
This formidable fighting style earned Chen Xuan the utmost respect from everyone.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Chen, rest assured, we will follow your orders completely!"
“That’s right, you’re the strongest among us. Just tell us what to do, and we’ll do it!”
"I thought I was very strong. But after seeing what you did yesterday, Fellow Daoist Chen, I truly realized that I'm nothing but a novice in front of a real expert! I'm willing to serve you!"
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan didn't say anything more.
There was silence for a while, as the various procedures of the coronation ceremony proceeded one by one for several hours.
Just as the coronation ceremony was about to end, a loud male voice came from below the viewing platform.
"Haha, congratulations Fairy Xiao on becoming the young city lord of Tianguang City. However, according to the rules, the young city lord must accept challenges from experts of the same realm. I wonder if the rules of Tianguang City remain the same?"
This person appeared to be perfectly normal, even with a smile on his face.
He appeared to be congratulating Xiao Qin.
But everyone present could tell that this guy actually had ulterior motives.
hum!
The atmosphere at the scene froze instantly, and everyone's eyes were on Xiao Qin.
Everyone knew that this guy was actually after Xiao Qin.
As the young city lord of Tianguang City, Xiao Qin's solution to this matter is the key issue.
At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Qin.
But Xiao Qin smiled, showing no fear whatsoever.
“Fellow Daoist, if I were you, I wouldn’t ask such a foolish question. Our ten immortal cities have an agreement that each city’s young city lord can accept challenges from experts of the same realm at his coronation ceremony.”
"Although I am young, I will not break this rule!"
"Fellow Daoist, are you trying to provoke the rules of our Ten Immortal Cities by asking this question?"
Xiao Qin's few words were enough to make the person asking the question break out in a cold sweat.
The Ten Immortal Cities!
This is a behemoth in the entire Tiannan True Immortal Realm.
Even a powerful force like Yaoguang Cave wouldn't dare to offend it easily.
Even if he has some influence, he wouldn't dare offend the ten major immortal cities at the same time.
"Hehe, Young Master Xiao is joking. How could I have such a courage?"
The person who asked the question gave an awkward smile and quickly made a hasty escape.
Upon seeing this, the audience burst into laughter.
"This guy really doesn't know what's good for him!"
“That’s right, our young city lord is truly magnanimous. If it were me, I would have already crushed this person to dust.”
"That's right, the young city lord is still benevolent and righteous."
Numerous praises rang out from the scene.
Soon, a powerful early-stage Golden Immortal took a step and appeared directly in the void.
"Since the young city lord admits that the rules still apply, I intend to challenge him. Would that offend Skylight City?"
The person speaking had a faint smile on their face.
Although he spoke very cautiously, he was extremely bold.
As he spoke, his gaze was extremely provocative, constantly scanning Xiao Qin.
Xiao Qin said calmly, "If you want to challenge me, you must first defeat my protector. That's the rule! Surely you're aware of that?"
As soon as he finished speaking, one of Chen Xuan's early-stage Golden Immortal protectors immediately stepped forward and rushed towards the speaker.
Soon, the two engaged in a fierce battle in the void.
Although, in Chen Xuan's view, the combat power of these protectors of Tianguang City was really quite ordinary.
But at this moment, the guy who provoked Xiao Qin was even more mediocre.
After the two exchanged blows for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the protector of Tianguang City finally seized an opening and severely injured the one who had provoked Xiao Qin, thus ending the battle.
But soon, another early-stage Golden Immortal stepped forward to challenge him.
Without Chen Xuan needing to make a move, another guardian of Tianguang City, a Golden Immortal in the early stage, also rushed forward to meet him.
Half an hour later, this person was finally defeated.
Upon seeing this, Jiu Xiao on the viewing platform immediately gave a disdainful smile.
"How boring, it's all childish tricks. Ah San, go and meet these protectors of Sky City."
"Remember, don't bring shame to our Guangwu City!"
Jiuxiao gave an order.
A Golden Immortal in the early stage standing beside him immediately took a step forward and rushed directly towards where Xiao Qin was.
Upon seeing this, the leading protector of Tianguang City immediately frowned slightly.
Just as he was about to make a move, Chen Xuan stopped him.
"No need, I'll take care of this man!"
As Chen Xuan spoke, he immediately took a step forward.
They stopped the Indian directly.
The terrifying pressure of an early-stage Golden Immortal rapidly enveloped Ah San.
Unexpectedly, instead of stopping, the Indian man grinned maliciously and charged madly towards Chen Xuan.
The moment the fist was thrown, a terrifying tiger's roar resounded from the void.
Suddenly, a white tiger phantom, several tens of feet in size, came straight at Chen Xuan.
This scene caused everyone present to subtly change their expressions.
Even Chen Xuan felt the terrifying threat from the Indians.
