Chapter 1582: Killing Fang Gan? (1/2)
“I never thought that your schemes ran so deep! You’ve really hidden yourself well. No wonder you dared to leave the Fortune Emperor Palace openly without hiding your destination! As it turned out, you had Emperor Realm experts to protect you!” A vicious expression appeared on Zhou Chen’s face as he continued, “Since that is how it is, I shall make a move personally! I want to see if your Emperor Realm bodyguards will be able to protect you from me!”
The killing intent around Zhou Chen seemed to solidify and the air around him became heavier.
All of a sudden, a terrifying amount of power shrouded Zhou Chen’s palace and light started to gather high in the sky. A giant face started to form in the air.
When Zhou Chen saw the face hanging high above him, his heart skipped a beat and he knelt on the ground with a ‘plop’. “Greetings, Great Lord!”
The giant face groaned in reply and said “You don’t need to personally make a move against Huang Xiaolong.” The voice suddenly became softer and he continued, “Huang Xiaolong has the king of supreme godhead and he isn’t as easy to deal with as you think. Moreover, your identity cannot be exposed right now! Hold in your anger for the sake of our race’s plans.”
Despite the unwillingness in his heart, Zhou Chen didn’t dare to go against the power that formed the giant face in the air. He could only nod respectfully.
“Does Fang Gan keep the Fortune Divine Artifact on him at all times?”
“Yes. Great Lord, I am currently unable to use the Fortune Divine Artifact.” Zhou Chen replied.
“If that’s the case, try to find a way to lure Fang Gan away from the Fortune Emperor Palace.” The giant face in the air muttered softly.
Zhou Chen was stunned for a second and he asked with an expression of shock, “Great Lord, are you planning to kill Fang Gan? He has hidden his true strength well and might even have broken through the Tenth Order Emperor Realm. With the Fortune Divine Artifact, even an ordinary late-Tenth Order Emperor would be unable to kill him!”
The giant face replied with indifference, “Since ordinary Tenth Order Emperor Realm experts aren’t able to kill him, we’ll let experts at the peak of the late-Tenth Order Emperor Realm make a move. Someone will definitely be able to kill him. You don’t need to care about the finer details. Just find a way to lure Fang Gan out of the Fortune Emperor Palace.”
Zhou Chen thought about it and replied carefully, “Yes. However, Fang Gan has always been a cautious man. If I were to urge him to leave the Fortune Emperor Palace, he will definitely develop some suspicions.”
“There’s no hurry. Just use the next two to three hundred years to carry out your plan. Even if you can’t get the chance to lure him out, just inform me the moment he takes a step out of the Fortune Emperor Palace. I will get some people to do the job. After all, he can’t possibly stay in the Fortune Emperor Palace without taking a step out, can he?”
When he heard that he had two to three hundred years of time to make his move, Zhou Chen felt a wave of relief wash over him. “Great Lord, please be at ease. I will report to you the moment Fang Gan leaves the Fortune Emperor Palace!”
“As for Huang Xiaolong, is he going to the Hell Asura World to temper himself?!” The giant face suddenly changed the topic and asked all of a sudden.
“Yes. This subordinate has received news that Huang Xiaolong is only planning to return for the Battle of the Heavenly Court.”
The giant face laughed coldly, “Since that is the case, I shall allow him to remain at the Hell Asura World forever! Initially, I wanted to send disciples from the Fiend God Emperor Palace and the Brightness Emperor Palace to deal with him. However, he grows too quickly. We can no longer allow him to grow stronger. With his speed, he might even reach the Emperor Realm in two to three hundred years!”
An Emperor Realm expert with a king of supreme godhead would pose too much of a variable in their plans.
Before long, the giant face in the sky dissipated and all traces of him being there disappeared like a puff of smoke.
Zhou Chen was finally able to heave a sigh of relief and he slowly got to his feet.
“Fang Gan…” A brilliant light flashed through his eyes as he stared into the distance.
His mind started moving and he thought about how he should go about taking control of the Fortune Emperor Palace the moment Fang Gan died!
In a flash, a month passed.
The Dragon Shark Flying Ship stopped in mid air and Huang Xiaolong’s party emerged from the ship.
Looking at the intertwining streets emitting a faint illusory glow, all of them couldn’t help but suck in a cold breath.
The Heavens Avenue was a work of art. It was so intricate that it seemed to be the work of god. Despite the number of divine planes they visited and the amount of majestic architecture they admired, nothing came close to the Heavens Avenue.
After a brief stop, Huang Xiaolong led all of them towards it.
