Chapter 669 Change in the First Position (2/2)

“The Sacred Palace really is hateful!” Peak master Lianyi’s beautiful brows were also scrunched together. “The battle happened in their sect, who knows whether anybody interfered?”

“I have seen the memory rock. Wu Huang is indeed extraordinary and should be stronger than Jiang Taishen,” peak master Lei Jun of the Heavenly Lightning Peak said aloud.

Below, Chu Qing, Kong Sheng, Li Qingchan and the other Chosen all wore solemn expressions. They were all well aware of Jiang Taishen’s strength, thus were shocked to hear that he was defeated in the hands of Wu Huang. If even Jiang Taishen was defeated, then just how strong was Wu Huang?

“Where is Wu Huang from? I’ve never heard of him before,” Li Qingchan asked with a frown.

Sect master Qing Yang answered, “He is also from the Cangmang Continent and should be acquainted with Zhou Yuan.”

“Also from the Cangmang Continent?”

Li Qingchan and the others exchanged glances with one another.

In the past two years, why have there been so many powerful people from a little continent?

But they were even more surprised that Wu Huang was acquainted with Zhou Yuan.

“Zhou Yuan and Wu Huang had fought a battle of life and death in the Cangmang Continent’s Saint Remains Domain. In the end Zhou Yuan destroyed Wu Huang’s physical body, and his spirit was taken away by the Sacred Palace. From the looks of it, the Sacred Palace’s palace master must have reconstructed his physical body,” sect master Qing Yang explained.

A look of surprise crossed the faces of Li Qingchan and the others. They evidently didn’t expect there to be such a story between Zhou Yuan and Wu Huang.

It wasn’t easy to reconstruct Wu Huang’s physical body, so why would the palace master of the Sacred Palace help Wu Huang? Could it have really been because he could see Wu Huang’s talent and potential?

Sect master Qing Yang shook his head. For people of his level, they had all seen and experienced too much. The so-called genius would only be successful for a period of time. n.o.body knew just what step they would reach.

Through some kind of intuitive power, sect master Qing Yang felt that the Sacred Palace’s palace master was scheming something.

Sect master Qing Yang temporarily stopped his speculation, knowing that it was useless. Moreover, in addition to the news of the first person on the Chosen List being changed, he also had another piece of news.

The Great Wu Empire of the Cangmang Continent was intending to go to war with the Great Zhou Empire.

Given his status, he didn’t care about the conflict between two little empires on the Cangmang Continent. But the situation was slightly different this time since the present first Chosen on the Chosen List, Wu Huang, was from the Great Wu Empire.

And Zhou Yuan was from the Great Zhou Empire.

Wu Huang had won the first place on the Chosen list the moment he became known to the world, and this was followed by the Great Wu declaring war on the Great Zhou. It seemed that there was perhaps the shadow of the Sacred Palace’s palace master in this act.

He wanted to retaliate for losing face in the Mythic Utopia?

Sect master Qing Yang’s eyes flashed. “Send a message to Zhou Yuan, tell him to stop training for now and that there is something to discuss.”

A disciple took the order and hurried away.

But immediately, sect master Qing Yang gave a wave of his hand and blocked his path. Looking in the direction of the distant Saint Genesis Peak, his face lit up with surprise and a wide smile.

“It looks like there’s no longer such a need.”

Boom!

As his voice faded, Li Qingchan and the others in the hall also suddenly sensed violent and powerful Genesis Qi breaking out from the distant Saint Genesis Peak with a loud rumble.

The bright pillar of Genesis Qi pierced straight through the clouds, boundless and majestic.

And in the pillar of Genesis Qi, there was a slender young figure rus.h.i.+ng skywards, his roar reverberating across the universe like thunder.

Li Qingchan and the others were immediately moved upon seeing the scene.

It was Zhou Yuan.

He had made a breakthrough once again!
