Chapter 2587: Are you Here to Apologize? (1/2)

Not too far away from the main hall of the Hong Zhen Holy Gate, a group of people surrounded a young man as they praised him to the high heavens.

The Hong Zhen Holy Emperor was about to accept this man as his disciple. His name was Liu Jun.

“Brother Liu Jun is really amazing! I’ve heard rumors that the Hong Zhen Holy Emperor plans to make Brother Liu Jun his successor!” A holy prince of the Treasured Moon Holy Gate chuckled.

The difference between a direct disciple and a successor was like the difference between the heavens and earth.

If one became the successor of the Hong Zhen Holy Emperor, then they would be able to take over the Hong Zhen Holy Gate in the future!

Other disciples continued to kiss up to him as they showered him with praises.

Liu Jun cupped his fists and replied to all of them with a graceful thank you.

“Tomorrow, Princess Qing Ying will definitely arrive together with the Qing Xuan Holy Emperor! He has never allowed his daughter to attend an apprenticeship ceremony before, and the reason she’s here cannot be more clear!” One of the disciples around him joked.

“Yeah! There has to be a reason for her to show up!”

“I’ve heard that the brat from the human race is also here… He should be in the main hall right now…”

A sneer formed on Liu Jun’s lips. “How dare a b*stard from the human race disrespect Princess Qing Ying?! He has to be blind! My master should be teaching him a good lesson right now!”

“The human injured Senior Chen Shen, so he doesn’t seem weak. From the rumors, he’s said to be a Fourth Heaven True Saint! It’s no wonder he dares to enter the Hong Zhen Holy Gate alone,” someone explained.

“Just a mere Fourth Heaven True Saint… When the Qing Xuan Holy Emperor arrives tomorrow, he will be dead!” Liu Jun chuckled.

As the night passed, the first rays of sunlight fell upon the lands.

Under the illumination of the fireball in the sky, the apprenticeship ceremony began!

In the distance, a huge group of experts soared through the skies as they approached the plaza. There were some who rode on giant lions, and there were some who rode on their pegasus. There were even some on phoenixes and several of them rode on heavenly dragons. Princess Qing Ying was part of them. However, the person leading the entourage wasn’t Princess Qing Ying, but a middle-aged young man who exuded a mighty aura. He was an enforcer from the Dissociation Domain, and he was ranked third out of the enforcers.

With ten enforcers in the Dissociation Domain, three of them showed up for the ceremony. One could only imagine how seriously they were taking Huang Xiaolong’s infraction.

“That’s the headquarters of the Hong Zhen Holy Gate!” The Qing Xuan Holy Emperor pointed at the plaza and spoke to the third enforcer.

“Hong Zhen is acting pretty arrogantly… Why isn’t he here to greet us?” Li Yapeng, the third ranked enforcer, frowned.

The other two were also slightly offended.

The Qing Xuan Holy Emperor was also getting a little suspicious. He had already informed the Hong Zhen Holy Emperor of their arrival the day before, but there was no one to greet them even after they arrived at the headquarters.

The Hong Zhen Holy Emperor wasn’t the only one who didn’t come. Not a single disciple from the other factions was present.

“Did something happen to them?” A blue-eyed young man piped up all of a sudden.

The youngster was one of the experts under the Qing Xuan Holy Emperor, and he was a Fourth Heaven True Saint. He came from the Silver Crow Race, and he was the Qing Xuan Holy Emperor’s right hand man.

“An accident?!” Everyone stared at each other in shock.

Staring at the Hong Zhen Holy Gate, the Qing Xuan Holy Emperor growled, “Look at them celebrating down there. It doesn’t seem like any accident might have happened…”

“We’ll know what happened after entering,” Xiao Shan’s gaze turned chilly as he spoke.

This time, the three of them might have left the army back in their headquarters, but there were thousands of guards following them around.

In their opinion, there was no need to fear that anything could happen.

“Father, I’ve heard that the human from the Mysterious Ice Race entered the Hong Zhen Holy Gate yesterday!” Princess Qing Ying turned to her father and said.
