Chapter 2168: Mo Cheng’s Murderer

The Azure Peng King had arrived in his original form. His original form was just like his title. He was a gigantic azure peng. All of his feathers flickered with azure light and seemed to be as tough as the scales of dragons. A powerful and terrifying energy pulsed within.

He hovered in space silently, just like a huge meteor. Even the majestic Neptunean Divine Palace was not a tenth of the Azure Peng King’s size.

“Heavens, I never thought that the person on the meteor was the legendary Solitary Sword Ancestor…”

“Not only has the Solitary Sword Ancestor come personally, but even the famed Azure Peng King has arrived. Coupled with the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, who entered the Neptunean Divine Palace, just what has happened in there this time? It has raised the attention of so many experts…”

…

The Primordial realm experts gathered there all engaged in a hot discussion. The presence of the Solitary Sword Ancestor and the Azure Peng King had attracted the attention of many. At the same time, they all felt curious about what had happened in the Netpunean Divine Palace.

Of course, many of them had extremely ugly expressions. They had already confirmed through the Godkings’ Throne that the prodigies their clans had nurtured with so much effort, their future pillars of support, had died in the Neptunean Divine Palace.

It was heartbreaking for them.

At this moment, the Azure Peng King’s colossal body rapidly shrunk, and he turned into a middle-aged man in azure robes. His gaze was sharp, and his sculpted facial features were filled with a sense of supremacy.

Originally, the Azure Peng King and the Solitary Sword Ancestor were several tens of thousand kilometres apart. However, the Azure Peng King moved slightly, and he appeared before the Solitary Sword Ancestor like he had teleported. He did not set foot on the Solitary Sword Ancestor’s meteor. Instead, he looked at him from several hundred kilometres away.

To supreme experts like them, let alone a few hundred kilometres, even thousands of kilometres would be like inches away.

“Solitary Sword Ancestor, has your successor also died in the Neptunean Divine Palace?” The Azure Peng King asked forcefully, giving off an undisguisable sense of unruliness.

The Solitary Sword Ancestor did not move at all from where he sat on the meteor. His gaze remained calm as his expression did not change at all, “That’s right. My Solitary Sword lineage never had a lot of people. It’s difficult to find a single suitable successor even when I scour the Saints’ World. It’s also exactly because of this that when my lineage was at its peak in history, there were still no more than five people. Now at my generation, I only managed to find Gong Zheng as the only successor, but he died in the Neptunean Divine Palace.”

“I’ve come exactly to understand how Gong Zheng had died. I’d like to see the junior of which organisation disrespected my Solitary Sword lineage, even going as far as to kill the only successor I found after so much difficult.”

Although the Solitary Sword Ancestor spoke calmly, all the Primordial realm experts gathered there subconsciously shivered inside.

Clearly, the Solitary Sword Ancestor’s indifferent words were filled with intense killing intent.

“This king’s disciple died in the Neptunean Divine Place as well. He was the disciple that delighted this king the most. This king held extremely high expectation for him, but this king never thought he would be killed in the Neptunean Divine Palace,” the Azure Peng King’s face became extremely sunken. Killing intent filled his eyes, and the surrounding space collapsed from his powerful presence.

“There’s still some time before the Neptunean Divine Palace closes, and the opening this time is different. The awakening of the artifact spirit might draw out this time. This king is unwilling to wait this long. Solitary Sword Ancestor, why don’t the two of us work together and force our way in?” The Azure Peng King suggested.

The Solitary Sword Ancestor stared at the Neptunean Divine Palace deeply. He shook his head, “You completely understand how powerful the Neptunean Divine Palace is. It’s very difficult for just the two of us to force our way in. Even if we do succeed, it’ll probably take a decade. The people in the Neptunean Divine Palace would have come out long ago by then.”

“Moreover, the Bloodtear Grand Exalt did say that unless the artifact spirit of the Neptunean Divine Palace took a master willingly, no one would be able to take the Neptunean Divine Palace, nor can anyone force their way in. If you really do that, the Bloodtear Grand Exalt would probably arrive personally before you’ve managed to make your way in. After all, we’re not the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng,” said the Solitary Sword Ancestor. The real reason why no one dared to eye the Neptunean Divine Palace for such a long time in the Saints’ World was because of the Bloodtear Grand Exalt’s warning.

The Azure Peng King’s eyes immediately narrowed when he heard that. The name of the Bloodtear Grand Exalt clearly formed an impressive deterrence. Even the obstinate and unruly Azure Peng King showed deep fear when he heard the Bloodtear Grand Exalt’s name.

Although the Grand Exalts of the Saints’ World rarely interfered with these matters, once they said something, it would represent the will of the heavens, just like an imperial edict. It was truly held supreme, where no one dared to disobey.

“This is the murderer of this king’s successor. May this king ask if anyone recognises which organisation he comes from? There’s still some time before the Neptunean Divine Palace opens, so this king will go pay a visit to the organisation behind him first,” the Azure Peng King said frigidly as undisguised killing intent radiated from him. He extended a finger and the space before him seemed to become a mirror, displaying a scene where Jian Chen was being hunted down by the many supreme Godkings.

However, with all the people obscuring the surroundings, there was not a single trace of Jian Chen in the scene. Moreover, aside from a pale-faced, haggard young man, everyone else was blurred.

At this moment, the pale-faced, haggard young man stabbed out with his sword…

The scene ended there.

It was quite obvious that this was what Mo Cheng had seen the moment before his death.

The Azure Peng King used a unique secret technique to completely project what Mo Cheng saw before his death.

All the Primordial realm experts gathered there shook their heads. None of them knew who Mo Cheng’s murderer was or where he came from. Even some people who specialised in dealing with information had never seen or heard of this person.

The Azure Peng King’s face was ugly. Since it only showed the scene before Mo Cheng’s death, he only saw the appearance of Mo Cheng’s murderer. He had no idea about how the murderer’s presence was like.
