"Brother Tiandu, do not be impulsive. Quickly retract your aura, otherwise once you attract the attention of the ghosts and gods in the city, we will all die!" the Buddhist Lord of Little Western Paradise hurriedly advised.
"So what if we are discovered by the ghosts and gods? This boy actually dares to humiliate me. Today, even if I die, I must kill him!"
"Brother! Face is a small matter, life is the most important thing! Isn't it just being slapped once? You..."
Smack!
Immortal King Tiandu directly slapped the face of the Buddhist Lord of Little Western Paradise, sending him flying.
"I will slap you first before saying anything else!"
This scene amused Gu Qingfeng so much that he could not help but clap his hands.
"You still dare to laugh! Die!"
Just as he was about to make a move, suddenly, several rushing sounds came from not far away, as if someone was fleeing at top speed.
Feeling that familiar fluctuation, Immortal King Tiandu instantly stiffened, and his expression drastically changed as he said, "Not good! It is the people from the Immortal King Palace!"
The others also sensed it, and their expressions changed greatly one after another.
"Damn it! Why are the people from the Immortal King Palace here!?"
"Weren't they always afraid to enter the Underworld Ghost City, waiting outside the city for us to fall into their trap?"
"Could it be that they could not hold back anymore, so they decided to strike even at the risk of alarming the ghosts and gods?"
"It must be because Brother Tiandu exposed his aura, which attracted them!" the slapped Buddhist Lord of Little Western Paradise said.
Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with being slapped just now, which was why he said so.
The others were not fools either, and naturally heard the implication of the Buddhist Lord of Little Western Paradise.
Immortal King Chongming said anxiously, "Now is not the time to talk about this. What should we do? The people from the Immortal King Palace are clearly coming for us. Let us hide first."
"That is right, fleeing is the best strategy," Immortal King Xuanjun echoed.
Perhaps because there was an outsider present, he felt that running away was not very imposing, so he added, "Even if we can defeat them, so what? If we attract the attention of the ghosts and gods in the whole city, we will all die."
Looking at the panicked crowd, Yan Lingyu's expression became increasingly strange.
She could not quite sort out the relationship between Gu Qingfeng and the crowd.
The Immortal King Palace hunted down these Immortal Kings, and then these Immortal Kings fled into the Underworld Ghost City.
Then, Gu Qingfeng wanted to kill the people of the Immortal King Palace, forcing the Immortal King Palace to flee into the Underworld Ghost City.
Finally, these Immortal Kings actually wanted to kill Gu Qingfeng!?
What kind of predator and prey relationship was this?
But she could be sure that if these Immortal Kings knew that the people of the Immortal King Palace were hunted down by Gu Qingfeng and thus fled into the Underworld Ghost City, their expressions would definitely be wonderful.
After all, they were just clamoring to kill Gu Qingfeng.
As for alarming the ghosts and gods?
It seemed that Gu Qingfeng had already alarmed them, and even kicked over a whole street...
At this time, Immortal King Tiandu spoke up: "Run? Where can we run? This place is a boundary without ghosts and gods that we found after going through untold hardships. Running aimlessly now will only lead us straight into the base camp of the ghosts and gods."
"But what else can we do if we do not run?" Immortal King Chongming said anxiously.
"Right here. I do not believe those people from the Immortal King Palace dare to make a move in the Underworld Ghost City!"
...
Outside.
Palace Master Xu Qingyun of the Immortal King Palace was running for his life with several Immortal Kings.
While running, Li Futu cursed, "Damn it! What exactly is going on in this Underworld Ghost City? I have been here a few times before, and these ghosts and gods have never been so irritable!"
"Yes, in the past, the ghosts and gods acted according to the rules. Basically, as long as you do not provoke them or violate the taboos, there would not be much of a problem. But this time, the ghosts and gods actually started a riot, seemingly searching for something everywhere. Did someone violate a taboo?"
"I vaguely heard some ghosts and gods communicating just now, saying something about Ghost Granny dying..."
Xu Qingyun interrupted, "It is useless to say more. I see that the ghost aura in the ancient mansion area ahead is thin, there should not be any ghosts or gods..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly sensed a wave of sword aura fluctuation existing in the ancient mansion.
"This is..." A gleam of light flashed in Xu Qingyun's eyes: "Tiandu Sword Aura! The people from the Sixth Star Ruin are hiding in the ancient mansion!"
"Lord Palace Master, what should we do?"
Xu Qingyun narrowed his eyes and said, "Let us go find the people from the Sixth Star Ruin. Since they are hiding here, it means this place is absolutely safe. Besides, they absolutely do not have the guts to fight us.
And if the ghosts and gods really catch up, they can be left behind as cannon fodder."
"Lord Palace Master is brilliant!" Li Futu immediately flattered.
Then, the few of them headed straight for the ancient mansion where the Immortal Kings of the Sixth Star Ruin were.
A moment later, the people from the Immortal King Palace descended upon the ancient mansion.
Xu Qingyun looked at the door of the ancient mansion, a cold sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Daoist Tiandu, guests have arrived, are you still not willing to come out and meet us?"
As soon as his voice fell.
Immortal King Tiandu, with a gloomy face, walked out from inside with the other Immortal Kings.
The two groups instantly confronted each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"Palace Master Xu, I did not expect you to have the guts to chase us into the Underworld Ghost City. What? Do you want to fight us in this Underworld Ghost City?" Immortal King Tiandu said coldly.
Chase us into?
Hearing this word, a strange look flashed in Xu Qingyun's eyes, but he did not say anything.
After all, he could not possibly say that he, just like them, was also chased in here by someone, right?
Xu Qingyun just sneered and said: "Whether we make a move or not does not depend on us, but on you. If you hand over the transcendent substance, then..."
Before he could finish his words, his whole body seemed to turn to stone, freezing in place with his eyes wide open.
Staring blankly behind Immortal King Tiandu and the others.
Not just him, the other people from the Immortal King Palace were exactly the same, staring blankly behind Immortal King Tiandu and the others, their expressions changing wildly as if they had seen ghosts and gods.
They did not see ghosts and gods, but rather an existence more terrifying than ghosts and gods.
That was Gu Qingfeng.
With two batches of nutrients delivering themselves to his door, how could Gu Qingfeng not show up?
Therefore, he strolled leisurely, like the finale protagonist, slowly walking out of the ancient mansion. The shadows faded from him, revealing his handsome and elegant figure.
Immortal King Tiandu furrowed his brows slightly. Why did he stop halfway through his sentence?
Threatening us to hand over the transcendent substance, and then what?
What on earth were they looking at?
Immortal King Tiandu and the others did not know why the people from the Immortal King Palace suddenly behaved so strangely. Could it be that there were ghosts and gods!? They did not sense anything! Could it be some taboo-like existence, so it could not be sensed?
As soon as this thought popped up, everyone was suddenly startled and hurriedly turned their heads to look.
As a result, they saw Gu Qingfeng's handsome and elegant face.
Oh, so it was Gu Qingfeng.
Wait, that is not right. Why would the people from the Immortal King Palace reveal such a look upon seeing a mere Gu Qingfeng?
"Gu... Gu Qingfeng!!!" Li Futu's cry of alarm broke the silence in the area.
He looked as if he had seen a ghost, pointing at Gu Qingfeng with a trembling finger, and said shakily, "You, you, you... why are you here!"
As soon as these words came out, Immortal King Tiandu and the others were completely stunned.
What was going on!?
Why did the people from the Immortal King Palace act as if they were terrified of Gu Qingfeng?
"Heh heh heh..." Gu Qingfeng suddenly let out a spine-chilling, sinister laugh.
"Today is truly a good day. Everyone is gathered here, saving This Emperor the trouble of hunting you down one by one."

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
