In the area, everyone lifted their heads and stared at the sky. There, a rich murderous aura was spreading. Under the influence of the murderous aura, the temperature in the sky also dropped significantly. That was the murderous aura from the two lords.
In the sky, Nine Nether and Lord Blood Hawk stood opposite each other, and the looks from both were particularly freezing. The resentment between them had been long-standing, as both disliked the other. If they were not both lords in the Daluo Territory, they would probably not restrain themselves, and would have fought each other a long time ago. However, by the looks of it now, the two both seemed to be unable to tolerate the killing intents in their hearts any longer.
“I have been wanting to know how strong the Nine Netherbird clan is all along. Today, I really want to see it for myself,” Lord Blood Hawk said gloomily. In his scarlet pupils, some fierceness appeared.
As he spoke, a blood-red storm swept out around him. The storm was filled with violent and vast spiritual energy fluctuations, which raged in the sky like blades.
“Then you can come and try,” Nine Nether also replied with a sneer. The purple flames that were circling her expanded suddenly. Her hair danced, as the purple flames swept out and a terrifying temperature spread.
Seeing the appearances of the two, everyone’s expressions changed uncontrollably. If Nine Nether and Lord Blood Hawk really started to fight, the influence would be far greater than the battles between the commanders.
In the Daluo Territory, commanders still could not be considered as the cornerstones. However, people as strong as Lord Blood Hawk and Nine Nether were really considered as the backbones of the territory.
“Enough!”
Precisely because of this, when the two were standing against each other, a roar sounded off and a wind-like fluctuation swept across the place. Where the fluctuation passed, the extremely violent spiritual energy fluctuation around Nine Nether and Lord Blood Hawk was actually suppressed back into the bodies of the two.
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice. The Condor King was staring at the two, frowning, as he said in a deep tone, “Is it that you have forgotten the rules of the Daluo Territory?”
In the Daluo Territory, lords could not be directly involved in the conflicts between the different forces. They could only let their subordinates fight. In this way, competition could be maintained, while the greatest number of lords could also be kept intact and stable.
Seeing that the Condor King had acted, Lord Blood Hawk knew that he would no longer be able to deal with Nine Nether on that day. He glanced at Cao Feng, who had become handicapped, but could not let it go. Immediately, he stared at Mu Chen with a gloomy look and said, “Cao feng had already been defeated, but Mu Chen was still so cruel. I think we should take his eligibility away.”
Hearing this, Mu Chen’s look also turned cold.
“Don’t you even think about it!” Nine Nether sneered and said. “Lord Blood Hawk, are you too old, that you can’t think properly? In this kind of battle, as long as no one admits defeat, the battle will continue. Even if Cao Feng is killed, instead of just being severely injured, he deserves it. There is no one else to blame!”
“You want my Blood Hawk Palace to tolerate this, and let this go? Impossible!” Lord Blood Hawk was unwilling to compromise at all, as he stood in sharp opposition.
Seeing the two arguing, the Condor King also frowned. At the side, the Spiritual Pupil King smiled briefly and said, “In my opinion, we should swap Mu Chen down for the moment to pacify Lord Blood Hawk’s anger. After the event, we will find another chance to compensate him.”
Mu Chen’s expression changed slightly. His goal was the Daluo Golden Pool. At the moment, he had made it here after many challenges, and so he would not give up easily. Furthermore, the so-called compensation in the future did not sound convincing, and he did not believe in that.
However, although Mu Chen was somewhat angry, he did not say anything recklessly. At the moment, his status in the Daluo Territory was too low. He did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble for Nine Nether, just so that he could look cool for a moment.
The Condor King frowned and said, “If we do this, who will dare to participate in the Daluo Golden Pool contest in the future?”
“Ha, do you think there are too few people, who want to enter the Daluo Golden Pool?” the Spiritual Pupil King smiled and said.
Hearing the dispute between the two, the Sleeping King, who had always been reticent, suddenly smiled and said, “Old rules, we shall still continue them all.”
Both the Condor King and the Spiritual Pupil King were stunned for a moment. After all, over these years, the Sleeping King would very rarely participate in their disputes. It was rather uncommon for him to say something actively like this. Moreover, the words from the Sleeping Kings were clearly trying to help Mu Chen.
Some darkness flashed across the depth of the eyes of the Spiritual Pupil King. However, although he was also one of the three kings, he knew that the Sleeping King was unfathomable. In addition, and also most importantly, the Sleeping King had always been the person that the Dominator trusted the most.
Hence, since the Sleeping King had spoken, he could not oppose. Immediately, he smiled and said, “Since Brother Meng has said so, we will continue, according to the rules.”
Lord Blood Hawk’s face darkened, but he did not dare say anything. He could just give a gloomy humph towards Mu Chen. Then, waving his sleeves, he turned around and descended from the sky.
Nine Nether also looked at the Sleeping King with some surprise, after which, she nodded at him with some gratitude. Then, she looked at Mu Chen and said, “Your performance is not bad. Later, whatever opportunities you can get in the Daluo Golden Pool all depends on yourself.”
Mu Chen smiled and nodded. Seeing this, Nine Nether did not add anything and turned around to descend.
