“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The sounds of intense battle came from the 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot, making Murong Yan and the others very anxious.
“Damn it! Let’s go and take a look.”
Murong Yan cursed, wanting to charge over. However, Liu Ruyun stopped him.
She said, “You all have not recovered yet. You are not even comparable to a Star Venerate right now. What can you do if you go in? Xiao Chen said he could deal with this by himself. Trust him.”
Murong Yan muttered frustratedly to himself. Then, he looked at the Demon Blood Vulture at the side and said, “This stupid bird looks strong enough. Why is it not going in to help Xiao Chen?”
Situ Changfeng and the others sat down cross-legged and circulated their energy. They consumed Medicinal Pills and focused on recovering their strength, ignoring Murong Yan.
Liu Ruyun said, “It should be remaining behind to protect you all. Don’t worry. Look at what Situ Changfeng and the others are doing and just imitate them.”
When Murong Yan turned his head back, he discovered that Situ Changfeng and the others were recovering quickly.
Murong Yan slapped his forehead and said in annoyance, “I should have reacted like that earlier.”
Clearly, doing one’s best to recover one’s strength as fast as possible was the right thing to do at this moment.
Seeing Murong Yan listening obediently, Liu Ruyun relaxed slightly. However, she still felt somewhat worried.
Like Murong Yan and the others, Xiao Chen also activated his Great Desolate Eon bloodline. Why is it that he can still fight and even has the confidence to barge into a 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot alone?
What trump cards does Xiao Chen have?”
Never mind. I’ll just follow his instructions first. Moving like a drifting leaf, Liu Ruyun landed on top of the Heaven Suspending War Chariot.
Xiao Chen only had Liu Ruyun guard the back door. If anyone tried to escape, she was to block them.
However, she did not know where Xiao Chen’s confidence came from, for him to be so sure that he could force the other party out of the war chariot.
In reality, Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Energy Veritable Essence Energy was already drained as well.
However, he still had not used any of his Demonic Qi Veritable Essence Energy nor his Vital Qi nor his Magic Energy.
There was the Divine Lightning Eye, the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram, the Sharp Spirit Finger, the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique, and many other unused trump cards. Naturally, Xiao Chen could still fight.
Furthermore, he comprehended the Heavenly Dragon’s mysteries. He could already make it take form from something formless and fuse it into various Martial Techniques and Movement Techniques.

Inside the Heaven Suspending War Chariot:
A huge, bitter battle had begun, with Hua Qingyun leading his group to charge at Xiao Chen and surround him. They ignored the gray-robed old man’s efforts to block them.
In the end, after a chaotic battle, Hua Qingyun’s group could not leverage their advantage in numbers against Xiao Chen at all.
Xiao Chen combined his Light of Freedom and Thunder Dragon Steps, freely moving about like lightning.
As for aura, with his two Great Perfection Dao Might and the Heavenly Dragon’s mysteries merged, he firmly suppressed the auras of the other side, preventing them from turning the situation around.
Dragon’s Gate’s Secret Technique, Firmament’s Rage!
The other side all launched killing moves, going all out. Their Holy Venerate Wills grew stronger, and their auras actually temporarily surpassed Xiao Chen’s. Upon seeing this, Xiao Chen did not even think, instantly executing Firmament’s Rage.
A gigantic hand covered the sky, flickering with electricity, the fingers like sabers. The moment this palm appeared, no one in its path could block it.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
A total of eleven people, including Hua Qingyun, got smashed into the air. They vomited blood as they fell to the floor.
The interior of the war chariot was completely ruined.
Aside from the gray-robed old man, only Xiao Chen remained standing.
“Damn it! If only I did not get careless and used the war chariot from the beginning to kill you all straight off, things would not have turned out like this!”
Hua Qingyun felt incredible regret. As he looked at Xiao Chen, a murderous intent blazed in his eyes. He wished that he could swallow up Xiao Chen on the spot.
“If you had not mentioned it, I would have forgotten. Right, this is a 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot. You may go but leave the war chariot behind. After that, this matter will be over,” Xiao Chen said indifferently after sizing up the surroundings.
“Young man, when doing things, one should not go overboard. This will make negotiations easier in the future. We only heard Qi Yunfeng say that you snatched his Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake and just wanted to come and uphold justice. Now, it looks like there should be some misunderstanding. Consider this our Heavenly Lodging Palace ’s mistake, alright?”
The gray-robed old man, who had not made a single move, snorted coldly. When he spread out his aura, a vast star chart with tens of thousands of constellations appeared behind his back.
Aside from showing his own strength, the old man placed especially heavy emphasis on the words “Heavenly Lodging Palace.”
The Heavenly Lodging Palace was one of the few Rank 7 sects, one of the superpowers in the northern region. Its overall strength was not much weaker than that of the Divine Dragon Empire.
This was especially so in Ancient Desolate Town. The Heavenly Lodging Palace branch there was stronger than the other factions.
Xiao Chen said indifferently, “You think things are over with just saying you were wrong? Since you know that you are in the wrong, then why are you not apologizing and offering compensation? However, I am very easy to negotiate with. You can skip the apology, just compensate us.”
Above the Heaven Suspending War Chariot, Liu Ruyun heard that and nearly fell off from surprise.
Did I hear wrong? To think that Xiao Chen turned things around and threatened the other party instead, demanding that they pay compensation!
The other party is from the Heavenly Lodging Palace, a late-stage Holy Venerate old man. Where does Xiao Chen get his confidence from?
“You!” The gray-robed old man trembled with anger. He barked, “You are too overbearing. Don’t go overboard.”
“Senior Yang, why argue with him? Just kill him, and everything will be settled,” Hua Qingyun shouted as he struggled to get up. He had never been so sullen before.
“Just quietly stay down!”
Xiao Chen threw a palm strike and smashed Hua Qingyun back on the floor. Then, he waved his hand, pulling over a chair. Holding the undrawn Tyrant Saber in one hand, he sat down.
As Xiao Chen watched the gray-clad old man continuously store up power to attack at any time, he said, “Brat, it is not that your housekeeper is unwilling to make a move. It is that he does not dare to. Am I right, old man? You have been observing me, trying to find an opening as I fought with these dregs, trying to figure me out. However, the more you watched, the more startled you became, and the more uncertain you became, right?”
As Xiao Chen sat on the chair, he showed an indistinct smile. His eyes were as sharp as swords, piercing the gray-clad old man.
The gray-clad old man felt stunned. Cold sweat dotted his forehead. How does he know everything?
That was right. The gray-clad old man had been observing Xiao Chen from the very beginning. Finding an opening was secondary. He mainly tried to figure out Xiao Chen’s strength. Without being able to see it clearly, he did not have the courage to attack at all.
When did such an incredible youth appear in the northern region?
As the gray-clad old man watched Xiao Chen sit casually on the chair, flamboyantly oozing confidence, he felt pressure as heavy as a mountain.
Under the immense pressure, the gray-clad old man had to attack no matter how unwilling he was.
“Everlasting Heavenly Lodging, Reversing the Starry Heavens!”
The gray-clad old man roared furiously. Success or defeat depended on this one palm strike. When the palm strike surged out, the surrounding environment changed. The war chariot disappeared. It was like everyone was in the boundless Starry Heavens.
As the gray-clad old man launched his palm strike, the entire Starry Heavens spun in reverse. Then, a black hole seemed to appear behind him, and a horrifying suction pulled on Xiao Chen.
What a strong palm strike! Had this old man attacked at the start, the situation might really have been different.
However, now… Xiao Chen smiled coldly. Then, his left hand moved, forming the Buddhist sect’s Seven Kill Seal.
He was like the lotus flower not retaining water or the sun and the moon never remaining in the sky forever.
Xiao Chen’s killing Qi increased sevenfold. His killing intent filled this boundless galaxy, causing the Starry Heavens that spun in reverse to slow.
“This…” The gray-clad old man felt shocked. Horror appeared in his eyes. He had never felt such horrifying killing Qi before.
It was not over yet.
“Supreme Dragon Fist, Leaderless Dragons!”
Xiao Chen formed the Seven Kill Seal with his left hand and executed the Supreme Dragon Fist with his right hand, using the overwhelming killing intent to drive the Supreme Dragon Fist.
“Roar!”
A berserk dragon roared, and killing intent surged out. With one punch, the galaxy shattered. Xiao Chen sent the gray-robed old man flying and crashing into the wall of the Heaven Suspending War Chariot.
Xiao Chen hovered in the air as Dragon Qi revolved around himself. He radiated killing intent from his entire body, looking like a grim reaper.
His Supreme Dragon Fist had already been modified, with killing Qi replacing resentment. With the Seven Kill Seal, the might of this attack increased by seven times.
Not only did the gray-clad old man’s palm strike, which he prepared with much effort, break, but he also ended up half-dead. His eyes filled with horror.
However, the gray-clad old man was incredible. The instant he moved back, he actually grabbed hold of Hua Qingyun.
“Let’s go!”
The gray-clad old man did not dare to linger. Carrying Hua Qingyun, his figure flickered, and he disappeared from before Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not find this strange. The gray-clad old man must have used a formation in the Heaven Suspending War Chariot to send them out.
He swept his eyes around and looked at the remaining people.
Finally, Xiao Chen’s gaze fixed on one of them. He demanded coldly, “Speak, where was this 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot originally heading?”
When that person saw the grim-reaper-like Xiao Chen, he immediately shivered in fright, feeling as if he had plunged into an icy cave.
“Don’t kill me. Don’t kill me. I’ll speak! I’ll speak!”
“Xiao Chen, we are here to help you.”
