Chapter 966 - Everyone's Reaction

Many big cities were located in those Heavenly Regions. Half of the Golden Core Cultivators on Planet Tianhuang were in the top ten Heavenly Regions and any earth-shattering news basically originated from those places.

In Sunset City.

Business at Qinhe Tower was very good.

As a popular gambling den in the Demon Warding Heavenly Region, countless foreign cultivators went there to have a go. Even so, Qinhe Tower was in fact most famous for being a news-monger on Planet Tianhuang.

Qinhe Tower was said to have been established by the thirty-seven top Chambers of Commerce of the ten Heavenly Regions. Those Chambers of Commerce asked some Nascent Soul Heavenly Lords to set up “Sound Transmission Arrays” at thousands of Qinhe Towers around the planet. So, when a Heavenly Region received news, it would be spread all over the world in less than a day.

This day.

Countless cultivators had gathered at Qinhe Tower and waited patiently. Even the maids held their breath, with widened eyes as they walked quietly.

“Do you think Goddess Shenxi can go through the Tribulation successfully and complete a divine-grade Golden Core today?” a middle-aged cultivator asked.

Even though the elders and leaders of the famous families and sects in Sunset City were sitting in a room on a higher floor, they still kept glancing at the “sound station” at the center of the building.

The Qinhe Tower’s Manager knew this didn’t happen quite often, it was the day Shenxi went through the Tribulation.

Apart from the Elixir Monarch of the Beihuang Region, another person that caught the attention of the cultivators in the past year was Goddess Shenxi from the Reincarnation Sect.

Forming a divine-grade Golden Core was a big deal.

Anyone who succeeded in completing one would be called a “Divine Prince” or “Divine Princess!” They were comparable to Heavenly Lords and were more powerful than the elites of the Longevity Roll. They could even become the most powerful warriors among the Nascent Soul Cultivators.

If the Reincarnation Sect had one more Goddess, they would definitely rule the Changshen Heavenly Region and become the most powerful sect right after the imperishable sects.

“I don’t know. It’s really difficult to form a divine-grade Golden Core. Even the last Divine Prince of Mount Emperor spent ten thousand years on it. If Shenxi can reach the ninth grade, she’ll succeed, but it’s too hard.”

Someone shook his head.

“Hm, Goddess Shenxi is talented and she shut herself in for three years. She will succeed. Don’t forget that Ancestral Patriarch Hongyang of the Reincarnation Sect is close to Alchemy King and the Medicine God Sect. If they join hands and help Shenxi, her Golden Core may be able to reach the divine grade,” a young cultivator said.

The others.

They either nodded or shook their heads.

But some people didn’t care about this. A cultivator from the Demon-suppressing Sect banged on the table and said, “I don’t care if Shenxi can form a Golden Core or not. I just want to know, did our Senior eliminate that kid? He asked his maid to attack our Heavenly General and humiliated the Demon-suppressing Sect. We’ll never forgive him.”

The few disciples of the Demon-suppressing Sect also said, “Right, he’s only a Connate Cultivator. Brother Xiao Hong must be able to end everything.”

In the past few days, other than the news about Shenxi, things about Chen Fan had also spread to the Heavenly Regions through news from Qinhe Tower. The disciples of the Demon-suppressing Sect and the Demon Warding Heavenly Region were enraged. The Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect was the pride of the entire region; everyone would be upset when their elites were humiliated.

Not only in the Demon Warding Heavenly Region.

The Gongsun family, the Ghost Underworld Sect, the Heavenly Jade Institute, the Red Fire Heavenly Region, the Beihuang Region, the Dragon Burial Region…

Almost all of Chen Fan’s enemies were waiting for the news to arrive.

Many disciples of the Heavenly Sects thought the Reincarnation Sect was protecting Chen Fan. Otherwise, how would a Connate Cultivator dare to provoke the elites again and again?

A cultivator of the Ghost Underworld Sect yelled, “If it weren’t for the True Dragon Goddess, any disciple in our sect could kill him.”

However, some Heavenly Lord Families of the Beihuang Region, including the Wu family and the Wang family, didn’t feel right. Why did this cultivator with an old servant and three maids remind them of Chen Fan?

“Is that really Elixir Monarch Chen? But Elixir Monarch Chen used to be a Golden Core Cultivator. Why did he become a Connate Cultivator?” Even Wu Wendin wondered.

Wu Qinyan, who received a Heavenly Book from Chen Fan, put her hands together and stared at the sound station. She had this feeling that Chen Fan must be the one who was at the Reincarnation Sect.

Since all the elites, Sect Masters and elders were there, they were much more powerful than the Feng family.

Could Chen Fan survive?

Then.

There came a beam of light.

Everyone at the Qinhe Tower and on the rest of Planet Tianhuang held their breath. The banquet at the Reincarnation Sect had started.

“The first news… Chen Beixuan is the True Dragon Goddess’ brother?” the Manager of Qinhe Tower read the message and was stunned.

“What?”

The other cultivators were also startled.

Although Chen Fan had disappeared for a year, his name had been circulated around the world. People knew about him and what he did through Qinhe Tower. They just didn’t know what he looked like and where he came from.

“That’s exactly what I thought. How would there suddenly be an Overlord with the last name Chen? Chen Beixuan is Xiao Mang’s brother. No wonder he’s so powerful. They’re a couple of elites!” someone clapped and said.

Those who heard this were really surprised.

But the cultivators of the Demon Warding Heavenly Region, the Ghost Underworld Sect and the Red Flame Heavenly Region were furious instead.

“How dare he provoke our sect! Our Sect Master and elites are all there. They’ll finish him!” said a cultivator of the Ghost Underworld Sect.

The disciples of the Demon-suppressing Sect were calm.

Even though Chen Fan was powerful, Xiao Hong was ranked seventh on the Longevity Roll, so he might have a chance.

When the news spread to the Beihuang Region—

Everyone was shocked.

Chen Fan had disappeared for a year. Since he had shown up again, his enemies would certainly pay attention.

At the Wu family estate.

Wu Wendin, the elders and many disciples were sitting on the stage.

They were waiting for the Qinhe Tower’s messenger to deliver the latest news.

“What happened next? Xiao Hong and the Ghost Underworld Sect are going after Elixir Monarch Chen. How is he?” Wu Qinyan asked. The members of the Wu family then said with a mocking tone, “Sister Qinyan, you remember he’s Elixir Monarch Chen, but he doesn’t remember you. He’s been away for a year. Besides, how would an Elixir Monarch be able to beat the Ghost Underworld Sect and the other sects?”

Wu Qinyan turned around and shouted, “Shut up!”

However, the elders of the Wu family and Wu Wendin remained silent and didn’t move to stop the disciples. Wu Qinyan was shocked; she knew they didn’t think what Chen Fan did was right.

While everyone was arguing…

The second message stirred Planet Tianhuang.

“Chen Beixuan defeated the nine elites and killed three of them?”

Everyone was stunned when the message was put on the message wall at the Qinhe Tower. The disciples of the Ghost Underworld Sect, the Gongsun family and the Red Flame Heavenly Region were even devastated.

The three dead elites were their top ones, meaning that they had lost their hope for the coming thousand years.

But some people, like the disciples of the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect, argued that even though Xiao Hong lost, their Sect Master and the elders of their sect weren’t there. Chen Fan only defeated a young disciple and it wasn’t a big deal.

“Besides, Jun Aochen and Gu Xiaoyi are still there. Chen Beixuan may not be able to deal with them alone,” someone said.

Many people were worried; they weren’t happy for Chen Fan.

All the elites had a powerful background, like the Sect Master of the Ghost Underworld Sect. He might not take revenge right then, but when everything was over, he could totally lead the elders to set an array to besiege Chen Fan and could even ask their Ancestral Patriarch for help.

When the news reached the Wu family, Wu Wendin shook his head.

“Elixir Monarch Chen is too reckless.”

Even Wu Baisu frowned and thought Chen Fan had indeed gone too far.

But then, the third piece of news came and everyone was stunned.

“He killed the Divine Prince of the Medicine God Sect and the Alchemy King’s top disciple? He’s got courage!”

“He dares to kill the heir of an imperishable sect. No one in the world can save Chen Beixuan now.”

“Hm, he’s really looking for trouble.”

Countless people shook their heads.

Some young cultivators were still unable to accept it, but the older cultivators immediately told them how terrifying the imperishable sects were. At this point, nobody had faith in Chen Fan anymore. Even if the imperishable sects had declined, Chen Fan was no match for them. Whoever offended the imperishable sects would be killed.

So, he was currently on the killing list of Mount Emperor.

“Haha, Chen Beixuan, you deserve this.”

Countless cultivators in the Beihuang Region, the Red Flame Region, the Dragon Burial Region and the Ghost Underworld Sect were celebrating.

The Ancestral Patriarch of the Wu family, Wu Wendin, immediately issued an order, “From now on, no one from the Wu family will ever get in touch with Chen Beixuan. Whoever violates the order will be executed. Don’t drag the whole family down because of an outsider.”

Many people were startled.

And they were sad for Chen Fan.

Chen Fan had a great relationship with the Wu family back then, but there was no other way. He deserved this.

“What a shame. He could have been listed on the Longevity Roll and later be able to fight for the top places with Li Huaixian and Jun Aochen. We could have asked him to be our son-in-law too.”

An elder of the Wu family shook his head.

Wu Qinyan was extremely pale and dumbfounded right then. She didn’t move even when the other members jeered at Chen Fan. She only kept mumbling, “How could this be? How could this be?”

“Crazy.”

Wu Wendin heaved a sigh. He got up and was about to leave the hall.

He didn’t want to hear the other news anymore. Even if Chen Fan had defeated the Sect Masters and escaped from the array, he had violated the law and offended the imperishable sects. He would certainly die. Nobody on the entire Planet Tianhuang would be able to help him.

“Unless he’s become a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord, otherwise… this is ridiculous,” Wu Wendin thought and laughed.

It wasn’t easy to become a Heavenly Lord. Throughout history, the youngest Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord on Planet Tianhuang was over five hundred years old. Even if Chen Fan had the talent, the Medicine God Sect and the Alchemy King wouldn’t give him enough time, let alone Mount Emperor.

“Sister, let’s go.”

Wu Baisu said to Wu Qinyan with a smile.

But when Wu Wendin was about to step out the door, a messenger from Qinhe Tower rushed in and yelled, “Ancestral Patriarch Hongyang of the Reincarnation Sect was killed by Elixir Monarch Chen Beixuan on the top of Mount Reincarnation. The elders of sixteen sects witnessed it!”

“What?”

Wu Wendin froze in the air.

The elders and disciples of the Wu family were all dumbfounded.

At this moment.

All the cultivators of the Heavenly Sects, the Heavenly Regions and the entire Planet Tianhuang were astonished.

They didn’t know Chen Beixuan before, but when they did, they were frightened by him!
