New Chapter: Daoist Friend, You're Confused
Outside the Five Elements Great Formation, starlight flickered, and the eyes of the group of people changed; this wild demon was far too ferocious.
"How are you, brother? Are you alright? Where did the injured one go?" The wolverine emerged from the giant den, carrying a wolf cub in one hand.
Where are the wounded? Under the heavy Wolf Fang Club, the intruder not only lost his head, but his body also exploded.
Wang Xuan placed the dark weapon on the ground and said, "The deceased is at peace."
"I... Ouch!" The wolverine swallowed hard, and tightened its grip slightly, causing the newborn Alien Heavenly Wolf to wince in pain.
There were only a few traces of blood on the ground.
Chen Yu of the Black Peacock Clan felt his eyelids twitch, deeply sensing that the Second King of Five Elements Mountain was extraordinary and truly quite brave.
In the starry sky, a voice spoke from a meteorite, "Which family's disciple entered the formation? He couldn't even handle a Great King in a remote star sea, and was instead killed. Is he really that pathetic?"
These people came from prestigious sects, and in their minds, dealing with rogue cultivators was a piece of cake—they could easily crush them all.
Someone warned, "This place is different from others; it's a no-man's-land. The Meteorite Sea black market is quite famous, and many interstellar fugitives hide here. There must be some tough guys here."
Immediately, the geniuses from all the sects in the sky looked at Wang Xuan, wondering if he really was a wanted fugitive.
Someone immediately sent a telepathic message to Wang Xuan, directly recruiting him. They said that as long as he was willing to serve them, he could get rid of his fugitive status and return to a normal life.
Before he could say anything, some people were already asking what strange things were in the Divine Nest.
Wang Xuan sighed inwardly, "What bad luck! Who is the fugitive?"
In the starry sky, some people looked grim as they tried to secretly instigate and recruit others, but Wang Xuan rejected them all.
"I am Kong Xuan, the Second King of Five Elements Mountain!" Wang Xuan declared. What kind of monsters and demons are these? What kind of pipe dreams are they having? They think they can get tribute just by talking.
Yuan Hong said, "I see that this man has the eyes of an eagle and the look of a wolf, and his face is fierce. He must be a wanted fugitive, and at least a two-star fugitive."
This is intolerable! How can a fugitive possess such an ethereal, otherworldly aura? Wang Xuan retorted, "What kind of eyes do you have? If my Clear and Transcendent appearance is considered fierce, then wouldn't you guys be able to scare ghosts to death when you walk at night?"
But no one paid him any attention. Shenxiao echoed Yuan Hong, saying, "We should eliminate him as soon as possible to prevent him from continuing to wreak havoc in the starry sky!"
"Perhaps he's Three Stars fugitive." Some were even more ruthless, directly characterizing Wang Xuan as a vicious and ruthless person who would kill anyone who saw him.
Those outside the Five Elements Great Formation spoke up one after another, regardless of Wang Xuan's self-proclaimed name, "Second King of Five Elements Mountain." They simply said, "If you're a villain, then you are," and that was it.
"Wild demon, you didn't cherish the chance we gave you. Now that your chance to live is gone, we don't need to waste any more time on you. We'll have our elders come here in a moment and capture and kill you, this fugitive with a long list of blood crimes, instantly!"
It was nothing more than a demon king's dojo in the Meteorite Sea; even if it were destroyed, no one would care much.
Both the Golden Palace and the Time Cult received nods of approval.
The Tattoo Palace and the Paper Saint Hall, considering themselves superior, did not express their opinions, but when others spoke up, they did not object either, waiting to divide up the treasures.
"You guys are really ruthless!" Wang Xuan said. Since this group couldn't break in, they started accusing him of something serious, saying that they would have a powerful elder kill him later.
Some people not only wanted to take the strange object, but also wanted to frame him as a fugitive criminal so that they could have a legitimate reason to kill him and thus punish evil and promote good.
"You seem a bit tactless." Someone looked at him, as if to give him a heads-up, and gestured for him to look at the various geniuses high in the sky.
That means you didn't even take a closer look at who these people are? They all have powerful backgrounds; the successors of the Fusion with Dao Sect, the Golden Palace, the Time Cult, and the Paper Saint Hall are all here.
Seeing that Wang Xuan ignored him, someone spoke up, "Since you won't cooperate, then we'll just have to send you on your way."
"I'd like to say a few words," Chen Yu couldn't help but step forward and said, "Five Elements Mountain is a separate courtyard of my Black Peacock Sacred Mountain."
"Fellow Daoist, you are confused. This is a fugitive." Gu Cheng, the second master of the Golden Palace, spoke up. He held a very high position, and even when facing the disciples of Black Peacock Sacred Mountain, he dared to directly refute them and define the Second King as a fugitive.
At the very least, Shenxiao, Luo Kun, and others had some reservations.
"This is Five Elements Mountain, there are no fugitives here. I am Wu Xingtian, the Black Peacock Great King, and this is Kong Xuan, the Second King." The wolverine spoke, though he was a little intimidated, he couldn't back down now, because he knew that the Super Peerless Elder Qingkong was watching from the starry sky.
"You're a fugitive too!" Gu Cheng said, glancing at him indifferently.
"I'll beat you up!" The wolverine wanted to punch him in the face, which also effectively branded him a fugitive.
Chen Yu was furious. Ultimately, she wasn't important enough. If Luo Ying, the number one young expert of the Black Peacock Clan, were here, the other party would definitely be more wary.
Now, Gu Cheng is calling a deer a horse and saying she's confused—he's that direct.
Wang Xuan looked at him and said, "Who are you? From the Golden Palace? I recently heard that your core disciple Mo Qing, failed to curry favor with the Tattoo Palace and instead went to help a group of swindlers. He's really confused. In the end, he was killed by Golden Horn King with a single horn. Fellow Daoist, you and Mo Qing are fellow disciples, from the same lineage. You must not be confused here."
Gu Cheng's eyes were practically murderous, gleaming with a menacing light. The other party kept calling him confused, and then retaliated by bringing up Mo Qing's troubles, which made Gu Cheng's face turn icy cold. If it weren't for the Five Elements Great Formation blocking him, he would have definitely swooped down and crushed this scoundrel.
"I urge everyone in the Golden Palace not to be confused," Wang Xuan added.
Yu Jin, the Junior Sister of the Golden Palace with extraordinary talent, was also angry. Her pretty face turned cold, her eyes flashed with a cold light, and she silently made a throat-slitting gesture at Wang Xuan.
Her white hair and originally ethereal demeanor now exuded a murderous aura.
"I think these two demon kings do indeed resemble the Three Stars fugitives who were wanted for many years and committed crimes in the Chongming Star Domain back then," Hongdao of the Tattoo Palace stepped forward.
After all, Golden Palace lost a core disciple Mo Qing, and his original intention was indeed to curry favor with their Tattoo Palace and ask for their help.
Wang Xuan looked at him and said, "Who are you? Hongdao, a core disciple of the Tattoo Palace? I heard that last time the fake Hongdao had his head smashed with an iron rod, the Tattoo Palace denied it, saying it had nothing to do with you. But why are you wearing the Abyssal Black Gold Helmet? Could it be you? You and your ilk swindled a lot of rare items from various merchants, and then just dismissed it with a single sentence, saying it was you. I think something's fishy! I believe you had your skull opened by the Golden Horn King, and the real and fake Hongdao are the same person!"
Hearing him say that, some people actually showed a strange expression.
Hongdao's face was grim. He, too, had been exposed. Although his head hadn't been smashed, being tricked into in the Deadly Peril and nearly dying was still humiliating. Plus, he had taken precautions by wearing the black-gold helmet; it really was...
The wolverine bared its teeth, thinking that the Second King was quite powerful, and deliberately poked at people's sore spots.
"That woman is named Chen Yu. She's Luo Ying's confidante, considered her right-hand woman. If the Black Peacock really takes over this place, we need to act quickly. Otherwise, if Elder Qingkong, the Super Peerless Elder Qingkong of the Black Peacock Sacred Mountain, rushes back from the secret realm, we won't be able to seize the treasure from the Kunpeng Nest," someone whispered.
The group's expressions changed. If the Black Peacock Clan's Super Peerless was stationed here, what chance did they have?
"Don't wait any longer. It won't work to label those two demon kings as fugitives. Before Elder Qingkong returns, let's make our move first. This is a contest between peers. Even if we take all the treasures, it won't be a big deal if we investigate afterwards. It's hard to explain."
Boom!
The brief peace was shattered once again as a group of people took action. This time, even the reserved second senior brother of the Golden Palace, Gu Cheng, personally took drastic measures, standing beside Yuan Hong and Shen Xiao, wielding a giant sword hundreds of meters long, and slashing at the Five Elements Great Formation.
Hongdao, the self-important successor of the Tattoo Palace, and Mo Han, a female disciple of the Paper Saint Hall, also entered the fray.
"Attack one spot with all your might and send them in!" Gu Cheng commanded, his killing intent genuine; he wanted to kill the demon king below.
The wolverine personally controlled the Five Elements Great Formation for defense.
Seeing that such a fierce attack was indeed risky, and that the protective light barrier was about to be broken, Wang Xuan knew he couldn't remain passive. He transmitted his voice, "Let them in one by one!"
He gestured to release Yuan Hong, Shen Xiao, Luo Kun, and a few others first.
Wu Xingtian's pupils contracted. The Second King was getting serious, going all out against them? But could they really stop the geniuses from those top sects?
"Brother, tell me the truth, how many times have you broken your limits?" he asked in secret.
"Three times!" Wang Xuan informed him.
"Niu Ben!" the wolverine exclaimed. This was an achievement that only the most core disciples of a top-tier lineage could attain. Even he, the Second King of Five Elements Mountain, had reached this level.
He had confidence in Wang Xuan because the Second King had previously told him that Wang Xuan had broken through to the Ninth Heaven True Immortal, and with three more breakthroughs, he was an extremely powerful figure!
"Thump!"
The demon god fell in. Although he had been cursing vehemently and had just declared that the demon king of this place was a fugitive, thus intimidating and threatening him, he was now somewhat uneasy.
He came in by himself? He's not Yuan Hong, nor is he Gu Cheng, Yu Jin, or Hong Dao.
"Damn it!" He turned to run away, because the Second King, carrying a pitch-black Wolf Tooth Club, was like a peerless demon. With one step, the heavens and earth trembled, dark clouds pressed down, and the Five Elements Mountain shook violently. With a loud boom, he came over.
"This demon king, let's talk this out. I'm here to persuade you to surrender, no, I'm here to hear your explanation and see if I've really wronged you. Are you really a fugitive?" The demon had a blue face and fangs, with a colorful pattern on its forehead. Its smile was more like a grimace.
"I am your grandpa!" Wang Xuan arrived, and he truly displayed the demeanor of an unparalleled demon. At the very least, his aura was imposing, with winds and clouds surging, Demonic Wind rising from the heavens and earth, sand and stones flying everywhere, and everything turning pitch black, making it impossible to see anything.
But this time, when things really started, he held back and didn't kill the person right away, to avoid being too shocking.
The two exchanged blows dozens, even hundreds of times. Just as Shenxiao was gaining confidence, with a crack, he was smashed to pieces like a broken watermelon by a Wolf Fang Club. He was gone in an instant, leaving only bloodstains on the ground.
At this moment, Yuan Hong's expression also changed, because his body suddenly sank and was about to fall into the protective formation of the Five Elements Mountain.
Gu Cheng, Yu Jin, and Hong Dao rushed over together, all wanting to go in!
