The Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Chaos Tree, Han Xiangzi Steps In

"Traitor? You are a traitor! How dare you betray our Heavenly Court! This is a capital offense!" The general was stunned, looked at Han Xiangzi, and said angrily.

"General, please have mercy on me! I'll do anything you ask if you can be lenient with me. Please help me!" Han Xiangzi pleaded, looking at the general before him.

"Hmph! You want me to help you? Fine, kneel here and kowtow a hundred times, and I'll let you in. Otherwise, you'll never get in!" The general said, pointing to the stone tablet next to the palace entrance.

"Thump... thump... thump."

Upon hearing the general's words, Han Xiangzi immediately knelt down before him without further ado.

"Alright, I can let you in now. But I'm warning you, if you dare to try anything funny, don't blame me for being impolite!" The general sneered a few times and said to Han Xiangzi.

"Yes, I would never dare to play any tricks!" Han Xiangzi nodded hurriedly.

"Come, follow my lead, and I will deliver you to the Heavenly Emperor," the general said calmly, then turned and walked deeper into the palace.

"Yes! Thank you, General! Thank you, General!" Upon hearing the general's words, Han Xiangzi's face immediately lit up with joy, and he followed closely behind the general as they went inside.

Soon, led by the general, Han Xiangzi arrived at a room atop a mountain peak and stopped. Han Xiangzi heard roars coming from inside the room; clearly, it was the Heavenly Emperor shouting angrily.

"Knock knock knock!" Han Xiangzi raised her hand and gently knocked on the door of the room.

"Who is it? Why is someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night?" A disgruntled voice came from inside. It was clearly the Heavenly Emperor roaring angrily, obviously very angry that someone had disturbed his peaceful sleep.

"Your Heavenly Emperor, I am Han Xiangzi," Han Xiangzi replied respectfully after a moment of silence.

"Oh, it's Vice Marshal Han. What brings you here?" Upon hearing Han Xiangzi's voice, the Heavenly Emperor's voice softened, and his tone became filled with eagerness. Clearly, the Heavenly Emperor was also very interested in Han Xiangzi.

"Heavenly Emperor Majesty, I have come here for the sake of that ten-thousand-year-old Chaos Tree. Also, I hope to become one of the most powerful experts under Heavenly Emperor Majesty's command. I know there are many powerful experts in the Heavenly Court, and I wish to join them. I hope Heavenly Emperor Majesty will grant my request," Han Xiangzi hurriedly said, bowing to the Heavenly Emperor.

"Vice Marshal Han, you said you came here for a Chaos Tree of ten thousand years?" The Heavenly Emperor's voice turned cold again as he questioned Han Xiangzi.

"Yes, this ten-thousand-year-old Chaos Tree belongs to me, Han Xiangzi. Please, Your Heavenly Emperor, rescind your decree!" Han Xiangzi said firmly.

"Vice Marshal Han, since that's the case, please show me your token. If your blood is on the token, then this ten-thousand-year-old Chaos Tree is yours." The Heavenly Emperor sneered and then said to Han Xiangzi.

"Yes, I'll take out this token right now!" Han Xiangzi nodded, took out his jade pendant from his bosom, and handed it to the Heavenly Emperor.

The Heavenly Emperor frowned as he looked at the jade pendant. He stared intently at Han Xiangzi, then slowly reached out and grabbed it, examining it closely.

"Huh? What's going on, Vice Marshal Han? Is this for real?" The Heavenly Emperor exclaimed in surprise when he saw the jade pendant. Clearly, he was also startled by Han Xiangzi's jade pendant. After all, the Heavenly Emperor understood how important a ten-thousand-year-old Chaos Tree was.

"Yes, this is the Chaos Tree of ten thousand years. Please, Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, bestow it upon me. Otherwise, I have no choice but to kill me!" Han Xiangzi said hurriedly.

"In that case, you shall leave the Chaos Tree here for now. I will inform His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor and then give you my answer." The Heavenly Emperor looked at Han Xiangzi, pondered for a moment, and then said to Han Xiangzi. Clearly, he could not give the Chaos Tree to Han Xiangzi immediately. The Heavenly Emperor was afraid that Han Xiangzi was a schemer who was deliberately trying to deceive him.

"Then thank you very much, Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor." Upon hearing this, Han Xiangzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He bowed slightly to the Heavenly Emperor and said.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now." The Heavenly Emperor waved his hand and turned to walk into the palace.

After the Heavenly Emperor left, Han Xiangzi's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes gleaming with icy light. He thought to himself with a sneer, "I'd like to see just what kind of person you really are!"

Han Xiangzi thought for a moment, then rummaged through his Storage Ring, took out the Nine-Toothed Rake, and hurled it forward with all his might.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar resounded as the Nine-Toothed Rake traced a graceful arc through the air before crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust and dirt.

Han Xiangzi watched this scene, and a satisfied expression involuntarily appeared on his face.

"Hmph, Your Heavenly Emperor, I'll seize a portion of your military power right now. Then let's see how you deal with me, hahaha..."

Bang!

After a loud crash, the 999 fruits on the Chaos Tree shattered instantly, scattering all around in a mess.

"Snort!"

Seeing that his move had been countered, Han Xiangzi's face immediately showed a hint of anger.

Immediately afterwards, he turned his gaze to the other nine hundred and ninety-nine fruits on the Chaos Tree, a cruel look appearing on his face, and muttered:

"Hmph! You bastard, since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being impolite. I'll take all of these fruits from the Chaos Tree."

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Xiangzi stretched out his right hand, grabbed a fruit from the Chaos Tree, pulled it down, put it into his sleeve, and prepared to take it away.

Whoosh!

Just then, a golden light flashed, and the soul fire within Han Xiangzi's body suddenly surged many times over, directly enveloping him and enveloping his figure.

"Haha, little guy, trying to run? Not so easy! Die!"
