”Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan must have definitely surrendered to the foreign invaders. Otherwise, how would they even survive under the hands on that Earthly Immortal? Star Lord, not only shouldn't we open Piercing Wind City's defensive arrays, we should initiate our killing array,” Just as Xia Dandao was thinking about how to stop Su Xuan from entering Piercing Wind City, a True God Stage cultivator stood forward and exclaimed loudly.

Xia Dandao celebrated inwardly; he liked this kind of subordinate that could help him at the key moments.

”Bullsh*t!” A sudden voice resounded through the hall. It belonged to an old man who stood forward and pointed to that True God Stage cultivator, ”Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan have been fighting for us outside of Piercing Wind with their blood, sweat and tears; all of us have personally seen it. At this moment, Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan have slaughtered the invading foreign scum. It's already enough that you didn't help, but you dare slander the heroes that spilled their bloods for us? Where does your allegiance lie? Could you have already surrendered to those foreign cultivators? Are you actually a spy?

Yan Dandao’s face turned black; he recognised the old man who stood forward. Chi Huo’Er, Star Lord Chi Tong's loyal dog; he could even be called Chi Tong's shadow. Wherever Chi Tong went, he would also be there.

Chi Huo’Er had never revealed his abilities in front of anyone, but Xia Dandao guessed that his cultivation was at least at Worldly Immortal Stage Level 5. This sort of power, was not something that he could casually kill off. Xu Chihuang was only at Worldly Immortal Stage Level 1, and he was injured. Under Xu Chihuang's incessant pressure, he decided to kill Xu Chihuang. But Chi Huo’Er was no Xu Chihuang. If he killed Chi Huo’Er, he would have to face very severe consequences.

Before Xia Dandao could think of some countermeasures, he heard yet another person stand up and say, ”Manager Chi is right. We all saw Hall Master Su Xuan and Hall Master Yan Ze defend Piercing Wind City against the foreign cultivators. If these heroes actually get slandered like so, then our Zhen Xing is thoroughly screwed.”

Even though Xia Dandao was the hall master of the number one hall, Star Wars Hall, and he even forcefully wrested the position of the Star Lord, his power was far from Chi Tong’s. Even Wu Lingzhi held more power than him. Before he fully controlled Piercing Wind City, he could forget about trying to do as he wished.

Previously, it was because no one stood up. But now that someone had stood up and spoke for Hall Master Su Xuan and Hall Master Yan Ze, there were immediately voices of affirmation.

Indeed, following Chi Huo’Er and this cultivator's example, more cultivators stood forward. Eventually, they even formed a wave of protests, hollering for the opening of Piercing Wind City's defensive arrays for Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan to enter.

Xia Dandao knew that if he continued to suppress this matter, then things would get messy. There's no need to talk about anything else; just the troops that Su Xuan and Yan Ze had gathered outside Piercing Wind City was enough to incite a huge war. In terms of combat abilities, he, Xia Dandao might not necessarily be able to win.

Since things had already reached such a degree, he could only say, ”Manager Chi was right. Just now, Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan were indeed pitting their lives to help defend Piercing Wind City. So with my authority as Star King Mountain's Star Lord, I allow Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan to enter.”

An intense cheer broke out as the defensive arrays outside of Piercing Wind City were opened.

As Su Xuan and Yan Ze entered Piercing Wind City, the cheers became more spirited and clamorous. There were already many from Star Sea Army and Star Dock Army in Piercing Wind City. Now that their hall masters had returned, these soldiers were emboldened.

”Congratulations Hall Master Su and Hall Master Yan for achieving victory in battle, and temporarily forcing the foreign invaders out of Piercing Wind City,” Xia Dandao was the first to stand forward with a face full of smiles and clasped fists.

Su Xuan squarely said, ”Things could have been much simpler, but we didn't have any help from Piercing Wind City. That almost caused Hall Master Yan and I, and many brave and hot-blooded cultivators of Zhen Xing to die wrongfully under the hands of the foreign invaders.”

When Su Xuan said these words, many of the cultivators in Piercing Wind City lowered their heads. They were also among those that cowered within Piercing Wind City.

Xia Dandao’s face did not reveal even a hint of embarrassment, he even had a with a severe countenance, ”Hall Master Su is right; we've been too cautious. We were bent on protecting this gate to the rest of Zhen Xing, that's why we chose to conserve Zhen Xing's power. That's why we didn't think of betting our lives on this battle.”

Su Xuan and Yan Ze's act of valor, when put in Xia Dandao's mouth, had been contorted to a risky gamble.

Su Xuan couldn't be bothered to waste her words on Xia Dandao, but said in a clear voice, ”All the cultivators of Zhen Xing. Today, I’ve come with better news. That's right, Universal Hall has been recaptured…”

Even though Su Xuan had already mentioned this matter outside of Piercing Wind City, not many people believed her. After all there were millions of foreign troops. Not only that, there was even an Earthly Immortal expert, various Worldly Immortals and Class 8 beasts.

If Universal Hall could be recaptured so easily, then they wouldn’t need to hide in Piercing Wind City.

”Hall Master Su, you cannot say such things so casually. Otherwise, it would affect the reputation of our Star King Mountain,” Xia Dandao said sternly.

Su Xuan did not respond to Xia Dandao, but continued, ”I am not lying to everyone, because the person who recaptured Universal Hall is here. I believe that most of us are familiar with him, that's right, he is the person that Star Lord Chi Tong designated as the next Star Lord, Star Lord Mo Wuji. Star Lord Wu had said it before, if Mo Wuji returns, he would immediately return the position of Star Lord back to Mo Wuji. Now, Star Lord Mo has returned, and he has even recaptured Universal Hall…”

After Su Xuan said that Mo Wuji had recaptured Universal Hall, she didn't see the excitement she expected. Instead, she incited waves of discussion. Because this matter was too sensational.
