Heavy footsteps resounded in the green bamboo grove. The ground shook with every step, as if it could not take the weight.

Surprisingly, the person with such a heavy footstep was not a heavy person, but a skinny middle-aged man dressed in a black shirt. The man came before the stone tower, and when he saw the elder robed in gray, he stopped and asked, ”Elder Gu, how can I help?”

Elder Gu looked at the middle-aged man and said with a smile, ”Congratulations, Long Xiang, you have successfully stepped into Complete Earthly Sovereign.”

The middle-aged man had an imposing aura and he seemed to be carrying several mountains upon him. Every move he made came with an intense power that shook the space.

”I am just a Half-Step to Complete Earthly Sovereign,” the middle-aged man named Long Xiang said flatly.

Elder Gu smiled and said, ”Given your talent, it is just a matter of time before you step into Complete Earthly Sovereign.” Long Xiang agreed, as he had confidence in his doing so in no time.

”Elder Gu, is there any problem?” he asked again, not wanting to dwell on the subject.

Elder Gu nodded with a smile and said, ”I have a task for you. Go and get this Lower Earthly Sovereign for me.”

As Elder Gu flicked his fingers, a spiritual light appeared before him. A tall youth then appeared in the screen. It was none other than Mu Chen!

Long Xiang frowned and asked, ”He is just a Lower Earthly Sovereign, so why are you asking me to do this?”

”Hohoho, he is not an ordinary Lower Earthly Sovereign. Although he is only a Lower Earthly Sovereign, he has won the position of the Child of the Continent at the Battlefield of the Upper Earthly Sovereigns. Even the Direct Disciple of the West Heaven War Emperor is no match for him. This guy is powerful,” Elder Gu said with a smile.

He then added, ”I don't think any Upper Earthly Sovereign can deal with him, so I need your help.”

When Long Xiang heard this, he squinted his eyes. He then nodded and said, ”He is indeed amazing.”

Although he was from the Budur Ancient Clan, he was impressed that a Lower Earthly Sovereign could have such amazing results. Even the cream of the crop among the younger generation in the Budur Ancient Clan could not achieve such results.

”Who is he? Why do you want to capture him?” Long Xiang asked Elder Gu.

When Elder Gu heard his questions, he smiled and replied, ”This is the order of the First Elder.”

Long Xiang squinted his eyes as he recalled something. He then looked at Elder Gu and asked for confirmation, ”This is the guy on the Wanted List?”

”Yes, he is the perpetrator,” Elder Gu said flatly.

Boom!

At that moment, a horrifying power burst out from Long Xiang's body and his eyes turned cold. The cries of the dragon and elephant resounded from his body and a terrifying aura swirled toward Elder Gu.

Roar!

Elder Gu looked sharply at Long Xiang's aura, while a golden light gathered behind him. It then turned into a golden lion, and as the lion roared, the heavens and the earth quaked, smashing the terrifying oppression into pieces.

When the two of them exchanged blows, Long Xiang moved half a step backward and Elder Gu's body shook. Elder Gu frowned. Although Long Xiang was only at Half Step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, he possessed a supernatural strength and had cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Subdue God Art. As such, he was extremely powerful, and even if Elder Gu managed to defeat him, he would have to pay a high price.

”Long Xiang, are you defying the order?” Elder Gu stared at Long Xiang with authority. He looked fierce, like a lion king.

Long Xiang looked back at him fiercely, then after a long while, he withdrew his aura and said coldly, ”He is Young Mistress' son, not a perpetrator. Lion King Gu, you'd better watch your words!”

”Ha, although Qing Yanjing used to be your Young Mistress, she was convicted for violating our rules. She has tainted our royal bloodline, and this is unpardonable!” Elder Gu said. ”If you have a problem, go talk to the elders. If they change their minds, I will not say such words to her son.”

Long Xiang looked grim and sneered. ”I can't be bothered with you. I am not going!”
