Chapter 769: I Dare You To Try Again, Heavenly Duke Chen

When Bai Xiaochun arrived outside the Heavenmaster Hall in the imperial palace, he immediately realized that it was not without such a person in the past. There were several dozen cultivators present who had come to give official greetings to the Grand Heavenmaster.

One of them was Chen Haosong, along with the old man that Bai Xiaochun had seen with him before. Both of them were heavenly dukes, and there were three other heavenly dukes present. Although Bai Xiaochun did not recognize them, he could tell from their auras that they were gods. [1]

The rest of the people present were all heavenly heavens. The four of them Bai Xiaochun was recognized as the people from the group of nine who surrounded him.

They all had unsightly expressions on their faces as they waited for the Grand Heavenmaster to summon them for their audience. As soon as Bai Xiaochun arrived, all of their gazes came to rest on him.

"Bai Hao !!" many of them growled through gritted teeth.

Chen Haosong's eyes glittered especially coldly, and he obviously wanted to kill Bai Xiaochun. After all, he was close to Heavenly Marquis Li, and currently, it was unclear whether the man was alive or dead!

All the nobles and aristocracies in Arch-Emperor City had been shaken by the fact that the two heavenly marquises had been captured by the Grand Heavenmaster. After the question was made, and it became clear that Bai Xiaochun was behind it all, their hatred for him grew, even though they did not dare to do anything directly.

When the gazes of the five gods, and the entire group of demigods, all came to rest on Bai Xiaochun, it made him feel as if countless mountains were weighing down on him.

The coldness of the gaze caused Bai Xiaochun's mood to sink lower, and at the same time, he started to feel nervous.

“I can't believe how badly these people want to kill me! They did not dare to look at the Grand Heavenmaster this way, but they had no doubts when it came to me. They obviously bullied me because they had a superior cultivation base! ” His heart shivers in fear, he looks back at the group.

It was at this point that Chen Haosong spoke.

"How dare you deceive the Grand Heavenmaster, Bai Hao! If you have any proof that Heavenly Marquises Li and Chen are traitors, then immediately submit it for me to see! ” His words were accompanied by an explosive killing intent, and a dangerously sharp gaze that made it clear that he would slash Bai Xiaochun in cold blood if he could.

Bai Xiaochun's expression flickered as he struggled to deal with the pressure that had befallen him. The energy flowing from Chen Haosong was like a mountain slamming into him. Ears rang, he retreated a few steps, his face turned pale in the process, and even his cultivation base staggered unstably.

Suddenly, an intense sensation of a deadly crisis appeared within him, causing his heart to tremble. However, it was also when a flash of hatred appeared in his eyes as he thought back to the tragic scene of the pit filled with 10,000 corpses. Instead of trying to stabilize his cultivation base, he instead bit his tongue as he staggered backwards, and then sent blood spouting out from his mouth.

"What do you have, Heavenly Duke Chen!" he yelled. "Are you trying to kill the inspection commissioner right in front of Heavenmaster Hall!?!? Don't tell me you plan on rebelling here and now !? ” A mere thought on his part reached out to the Blood Battalion of the Police Force, causing many of the corpse troop to fly by killing surging auras.

Another glint of cold light passed through Chen Haosong's eyes, but he knew how to hold his tongue when needed. Although he had put some cultivation base power into his words just a moment ago, he only hoped to intimidate Bai Xiaochun a little, not hurt him. Of course, the only reason he had refrained from accidentally hurting her was because they were all standing right outside Heavenmaster Hall.

He could never have imagined that Bai Xiaochun would actually accuse him of doing something he did not do! And on top of that, he used it as an excuse to summon the Blood Troop Battalion.

Chen Haosong frowned, as did the four heavenly dukes by his side.

A light of madness appeared in Bai Xiaochun's eyes. He was certain that these people would not dare to kill him here. After all, what use would the Grand Heavenmaster use to issue a warning, if he were to let people kill him?

Either way, Bai Xiaochun was not worried about actually facing a threat to his life here. He was still in a bad mood, and felt like venting it a little, so because of that, he decided to do a little test.

"I dare you to try it again, Duke Chen Heavenly !!" he yelled. At the same time, the murderous aura that roamed from his 1,000 corpses grew even stronger. All of their gazes were focused directly on Chen Haosong, as if they were going to attack her with a hint of provocation.

"You wouldn't dare!" Chen Haosong said, her expression flashing as she once again realized how scheming Bai Xiaochun was.

“I wouldn't dare? There is nothing I dare not do! I slapped the Giant Ghost King on the side of the head! I kidnapped over a hundred people in the Necromancer Kettle! I personally fought against hundreds of people who were selected simultaneously in Borough 89. So tell me again what I dare not do! Take one more step, and you'll see for yourself! "

"Are you threatening me !?" Chen Haosong said through narrowed eyes that were burning with killing intent.

At this point, Bai Xiaochun decided to be completely cautious of the wind. Anger surged, he looked at everyone who had gathered, and angrily shouted, “And if any of you dare to make a move, then I will not let it fall! Cheated to! If I can threaten a duke of heaven, then what makes you think I'm afraid of some heavenly wonder !? You guys listen to me. From here on out, you better be careful around me. As the inspection commissioner, I will keep an eye on all of you! ”

Although the heavenly marquise was smoldering with fury, when they saw that Chen Haosong was only holding the ground and did not dare to move. then they clearly had no choice but to glare at Bai Xiaochun furiously.

Chen Haosong's expression grew more unsightly, and even as he seemed to be on the verge of losing control of his anger, someone cleared his throat inside the Heavenmaster Hall. Then, the door slowly opened, and the Grand Heavenmaster walked out.

"How can we maintain a united front with all these quarrels !?" he said with a hoarse voice.

Everyone, including Chen Haosong, turned around, clasped their hands and bowed.

"Greetings, Grand Heavenmaster!"

As he stood there in front of the Heavenmaster Hall, the Grand Heavenmaster looked a bit stooped. He looked old, and was not particularly threatening at all, yet, everyone was staring at him with terror lurking in the depths of their eyes.

“So you came here in a big group because you have something important to discuss. Am I right?"

Sounding very respectful, Chen Haosong said, "Grand Heavenmaster, we will take your words of advice to heart. The reason Junior came here today was to report that things were not going well in the battle at the western Great Wall. I would like to request the use of one of the secret treasures, Duri Heavenspan …. "

The other heavenly dukes proceeded in the same way, reporting which tribe was having trouble, or what treasures appeared. Some offer news from the Heavenspan River region.

Most of the heavenly wonders followed him. They reported about random things that had nothing to do with Heavenly Marquis Li or Chen. Although Bai Xiaochun learned a little more about the situation in the outside world from listening to their reports, he knew that all of these people were shrewd old foxes, and it is not really necessary to state their true purpose immediately. They all came here today together was enough to send a very clear message.

Moreover, it did not make it seem like they were loyal to the Arch-Emperor. The position of the inspection commissioner had been left vacant for many years, but now that it was filled, the two heavenly marquises had been immediately arrested. It was enough to make all the nobles and aristocracy uneasy, and it was normal if they would try to get more clarification about the situation.

However, not everyone seems willing to let that happen. One of the heavenly marquises seemed to be slower in retrieval than everyone else, and after everyone gave their report, said, "Grand Heavenmaster, um, about Heavenly Marquis Li …."

In response, everyone looked at him in shock, and many of them even began to sweat nervously. As for the Grand Heavenmaster, he turned towards the person who had just spoken, a dark look in his eyes.

"Speak," he said slowly. "I can't hear it."

"Um, I–"

"Harder!" The Grand Heavenmaster repeated.

Sweat began to pour the heavenly marquis face. Shaking, he said, "Your humble servant .. has no questions to ask!"

The Grand Heavenmaster nodded, and then looked around at the group in silence. After a few painful moments passed, Chen Haosong left, and then one by one, the rest of the group left.

At that moment, only Bai Xiaochun and the Grand Heavenmaster were left outside the Heavenmaster Hall.

Bai Xiaochun blinked a few times. The scene he had just played was something he did not see often…. The Grand Heavenmaster only said a few short sentences, yet it sounded very impressive.

Even as Bai Xiaochun pondered the subject, the Grand Heavenmaster broke the silence.

“Sometimes I really have to admire the Celestials on Heavenspan Island…. I really don't appreciate him! ” With that, he looked at Bai Xiaochun. "So among the group earlier, who do you think is loyal to the imperial clan?"

At this point I wanted to explain something that confused me at first. Chen Haosong bore the same surname as the Chen Clan that Bai Xiaochun had just cleaned up. However, Chen Haosong was not a member of that Chen Clan. He had his own level duke of the Chen Clan, a thing that later became clearer in the story. For now, I think it makes things a little easier to understand to show that he is not connected to the Chen Clan marquis level.
