Chapter 299 The Six-Colored Flames in the Eight Trigrams Furnace

The momentum of the 100,000-strong army was so overwhelming that an invisible murderous intent spread between heaven and earth, making it impossible for the powerful Yin Gods to even leave their bodies, let alone those ordinary people in the martial arts world?

Only those of bloodline can take action in such a situation, but those of bloodline are usually nobles. Who would risk their life to cause trouble?
Five thousand elite troops can slay a real dragon, which shows that the army naturally has its own mysterious rules. Even the Yangshen strongmen would be extremely cautious when facing the army and dare not collide with it. Because the army represents the princes of one side and represents the destiny of the earth veins. Clashing with the army is equivalent to going against the heaven and earth. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?

"Damn it, King Pingbian is here, and that bastard Mr. Wuliu must be here too. I have taken Mr. Wuliu's nine flying swords. If he knew I was hiding in this Taoist temple, he would never let it go." Zhang Chen thought of Mr. Wuliu. The hatred between him and Mr. Wuliu was extremely great. If Mr. Wuliu found out about his whereabouts, he would have to kill him.

"The abbot has asked all disciples to go and welcome King Pingbian. Let's go quickly." Cheng Yu urged from the side.

Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Zhang Chen shook his head: "I won't go. If you want to go, go ahead. Besides, there are so many disciples in the Taoist temple, and King Pingbian will not check inside the Taoist temple. Who knows if I go or not?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Douding's eyes turned and he looked Zhang Chen up and down: "There is something wrong with you. Aren't you usually as good as Chen Tongguang? Why are you like this now? If people find out, they will definitely accuse you of disrespect."

"You don't know that I have a mortal enemy in the Pingbian Palace. He and I have an irreconcilable hatred. If he finds out that I am here, he will have to use the army of the Pingbian Palace to kill me." Zhang Chen did not hide it from Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu's eyes turned when he heard this: "My Junior Brother, you are confused! Not only do you have to go, but you also have to go openly."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Chen asked.

After hearing what Zhang Chen said, Zhang Xiaohua said, "Even if the enemies you have provoked in the Pingbian Palace are powerful, don't you still have to give face to the prince? Now that you have reconciled with Zhang Xiaohua, and Zhang Xiaohua is using you to contact Xie Lingyun, why don't you use Zhang Xiaohua to temporarily stabilize that powerful enemy? When you grow up, we can go and find trouble with that powerful enemy again?"

"Think about it, that powerful enemy wants to kill you, but Zhang Xiaohua is trying her best to protect you. Will the two of you become estranged from each other at that time? Aren't you alienating an important figure in the Pingbian Palace? And clearing a powerful enemy for yourself?" Cheng Yu's eyes were full of pride.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen glanced at the little girl. He never expected that this girl was such a master at playing tricks. She was so calculating at such a young age. It was really impressive.

Zhang Chen patted the little boy's head and said, "You go and wait for the emperor to come, I'll go meet the prince."

Zhang Chen walked through the corridors of the Taoist temple and hurriedly came to Zhang Xiaohua's residence. After a guard went in to report, Zhang Chen was welcomed in by Zhang Xiaohua.

At this time, Zhang Xiaohua's nose and face were swollen, and her body was fatter. She couldn't see her original appearance at all. She forced her eyes to open a slit and looked at Zhang Chen. She asked curiously, "Why do you have time to come to my place today?"

Zhang Chen sighed and said, "My Lord, I came here today to ask you to intercede for me."

"Please offer mercy? What mercy do you mean?" Zhang Xiaohua asked with a surprised look on her face.

"I have a great grudge against Mr. Wuliu of your mansion. I heard that when King Pingbian comes here, Mr. Wuliu will definitely follow him. If Mr. Wuliu knows that I am here, he will definitely fight with me." Zhang Chen said with a wry smile.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Zhang Xiaohua raised her eyebrows, looked Zhang Chen up and down, and said nonchalantly: "I wonder what it is, it's about this matter, don't worry, you are Xiao Wang's brother now, I will never allow Mr. Wuliu to hurt you. Just stay with me, and when Mr. Wuliu comes later, I will personally speak for you. Mr. Wuliu will definitely give me this face, you can put your heart back in your stomach."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen knew that Zhang Xiaohua's words were true. Mr. Wuliu would eventually have to beg for food in the Pingbian Palace. As long as Zhang Xiaohua did not get Xie Lingyun, Zhang Xiaohua would not allow Mr. Wuliu to kill her.

Just as the two were waiting, King Pingbian walked in from outside with his subordinates.

As soon as he entered the gate, King Pingbian saw Zhang Xiaohua lying on a chair, unable to see her human form. He couldn't help but cry out in sorrow: "My son, who made you look like this?"

Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly when he heard this, and as his mouth turned up, his facial muscles twitched in pain. The smile on his face turned into a painful hideous look: "Dad, let's discuss this later. Why did you come to the Taoist temple?"

Just as the King of Pingbian was about to speak, Mr. Wuliu's eyes fell on Zhang Chen. His eyes suddenly turned red and he couldn't help but shout, "It's you, the beast!!! Give me back my flying sword!!!"

"It's you!" Zhang Chen also saw Mr. Wuliu with his eyes wide open, and quickly took a step forward and moved behind Zhang Xiaohua.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were drawn to him. Zhang Xiaohua at the side quickly said, "Sir, please be patient. I have something to say."

"Young Master, this beast stole the flying sword that I spent decades painstakingly refining. I will never forgive him. I will never forgive him." Mr. Wuliu's eyes turned red.

That was the flying sword he dug out from the tomb. It was his life!
But not only was his flying sword taken away by this beast, he also melted down his own natal flying sword. How do you expect him to survive the calamity of Yang Shen?

When the disaster comes, there will be only one way out, and that is death!
What the other party destroyed was not only his flying sword, but also his life.

"All of you leave. I have something to say to Zhang Chen and Mr. Wuliu." Zhang Xiaohua waved her hands despite the pain and asked everyone to leave, leaving only Mr. Wuliu, Wang Pingbian and Zhang Chen.

At this time, King Pingbian looked at Zhang Chen with murderous intent in his eyes, and sat silently beside him.

He recognized Zhang Chen. When Chen Sanliang and Mr. Wu were discussing Taoism, Zhang Chen had caused a big disturbance at the discussion. Even many soldiers of Prince Pingbian's mansion died at the hands of Zhang Chen. How could Prince Pingbian not be impressed by Zhang Chen?

Everyone quickly retreated after hearing this. Zhang Xiaohua looked at Mr. Wuliu and winked at him: "Teacher, I have now resolved my grievances with Zhang Chen and turned hostility into friendship. We are as close as brothers. Can you please put aside this grudge for my sake? As for your losses, they will all be compensated by my palace." At this point, Zhang Xiaohua said in a deep tone: "We had misunderstandings before, but now that the misunderstandings have been resolved, you should at least give me some face, right?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Wuliu glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, then glared at Zhang Chen, and finally lowered his head in anger: "Well, since the young prince has spoken, how can a servant like me be qualified to refute? Boy, you are lucky that the young prince has blessed you, otherwise I would not have spared you today."

Zhang Xiaohua endured the pain and turned to look at Zhang Chen: "Zhang Chen, you can go now. Mr. Wuliu will not embarrass you again in the future, and you must not provoke him again."

Zhang Chen looked at Mr. Wuliu and Zhang Xiaohua calmly, then clasped his fists and bowed to Mr. Wuliu: "Sir, your generosity is truly admirable. Thank you, sir."

After saying this, Zhang Chen left.

After Zhang Chen walked away, Mr. Wuliu looked at Zhang Xiaohua angrily: "Sir, I have a blood feud with Zhang Chen, why are you lobbying for him?"

"Sir, you don't know that I need to use that kid to do something else. When I'm done, I will personally capture him for you. By then, you can cut him into pieces with any knife you want." Zhang Xiaohua's voice was full of coldness.

Zhang Chen walked away quickly along the way, and when he reached an empty corner, he turned into a stream of water and seeped into the soil. He returned to the building where Zhang Xiaohua was, hid under the floor tiles and eavesdropped quietly.

Then Zhang Xiaohua asked, "Father, why are you here?"

"It's all because of the incident with the Longevity Tree Coffin. Huang Liguan invited me to check it out personally in order to verify its authenticity. By the way, how are you doing with what Mr. Bai Cang asked you to do?" King Pingbian said.

"It has been done. As for whether it can be accomplished, it depends on whether the fortune in the jade piece is real." Zhang Xiaohua replied, "Mr. Bai Cang has checked that the power of the ancient water god's law stored in the jade piece has gradually revived under the supply of Huang Tiandao's incense power. Whether it can replace it and use the power of the ancient water god to seize the authority of the Miluo River water god and secretly replace it with the original, it depends on the fortune."

"But once we succeed, I'm afraid Huang Tiandao will turn against us. Huang Tiandao is not someone you can easily mess with..." Zhang Xiaohua felt a little hesitant when she said this.

"How can other people's water gods be as safe as our own water gods?" Mr. Wuliu sighed softly beside him: "What's more, we have already negotiated with Gu Mingyue. When the time comes, the arrow will be on the string and will have to be shot. Even if Gu Mingyue is angry, he will have to swallow his anger. Besides, the Northland is big enough. With our support, what does the good fortune of a mere Miluo River mean to us?"

Under the floor tiles, Zhang Chen listened to the conversation of the three people above, and was secretly shocked in his heart: "It seems that something big is going to happen in Huang Tiandao? Pingbian Wangfu wants to make trouble, and Huang Tiandao's own people also want to make trouble. Now Huangliguan is simply a big powder keg. But Liu Feng and Gu Mingyue are smart. They secretly invited Pingbian Wang to the underground secret room to check it out personally. In this way, they easily broke my lie. It's really interesting."

Then Zhang Xiaohua began to talk with King Pingbian about her injuries, and talked about the bodies of the ancient gods and demons. When she mentioned that she was being targeted by the ancient gods and demons, King Pingbian and others were frightened again.

Even Zhang Xiaohua has been targeted, so how far can I and others be?
I’m afraid that after I’ve dealt with Zhang Xiaohua, it will be my turn, right?
Zhang Chen listened for a while, and when he saw everyone dispersed, he quietly returned to his own courtyard, digesting the information he had obtained, and said darkly: "On the day of the Conferred God Ceremony, there will definitely be earth-shattering changes. I have to inform Xie Lingyun about this matter so that she can prepare in advance, so as not to be tricked by the reaction in time."

Zhang Chen turned into a stream of water and went down the mountain. He then came to the foot of the mountain and looked at the Huangli Temple, which was surrounded by a hundred thousand troops and could not be splashed with water. He thought to himself, "I just don't know how Xie Lingyun can kill the gods under these hundred thousand troops. You must know that killing gods is not that easy. It is not a simple matter. With these hundred thousand troops, I am afraid that even the Yang God masters would not dare to attack casually."

Zhang Chen emerged from the ground through the water flow, turned into a bat and flapped his wings to fly away. He came all the way to his own Bagua furnace and asked the spy guarding in the dark to pass on the message. Then he entered the Bagua furnace himself to check the progress of the smelting of the treasures in the Bagua furnace.

The flame inside the Bagua furnace was blazing, and at some point, the flame inside had turned into color.

"Six colors?" Zhang Chen saw the six colors of flames in the Bagua furnace, and a hint of curiosity appeared in his eyes.

The six colors of flames were powerful, more than ten times more powerful than the previous flames. The entire Bagua furnace was filled with a whistling sound, which made Zhang Chen secretly gasp in amazement. The khaki beads finally showed signs of being unable to hold on under the power of the six flames, and began to continuously break the restrictions.

"What are these six-colored flames?" Zhang Chen stared at the six-colored flames in the Bagua furnace with a hint of surprise in his pupils.

"Zhang Chen, why did you ask me to come down the mountain again?"

Xie Lingyun's voice was heard outside the cave. The flame in the Bagua furnace was too powerful. Even though the Bagua furnace blocked the extremely strong and masculine force, Xie Lingyun's Yin spirit was still afraid and he dared not get close to it.

Zhang Chen walked out of the cave upon hearing this, looked at Xie Lingyun's Yin Spirit, and said with a smile: "Sister, you know me well. If it weren't for something serious, I would definitely not ask you to come."

Having said that, Zhang Chen didn't say anything more and recounted what happened today.

"Mr. Wuliu wanted to cut you into pieces, but he had to endure it to help Zhang Xiaohua get me. It's really funny." Xie Lingyun found it funny after hearing this, and his voice was filled with inexplicable weirdness.

"You can still laugh. King Pingbian has dispatched an army of 100,000 to surround the Taoist temple. Let's see how you kill the gods then." Zhang Chen said unhappily.

"Killing a god doesn't mean we have to kill him right away. We can wait until the deity is conferred and all the masters in the Taoist temple have left. Then we can kill the god." Xie Lingyun was not in a hurry at all. He smiled and said, "But from what you said, I can probably guess that there will be a big turmoil in Huangli Temple on the day of the Conferred God. I just don't know if Huangli Temple can handle it."

The two talked for a while, and Xie Lingyun changed the subject, pointing at the cave and asking, "What is the flame in your Bagua furnace? Why is it so powerful that I dare not even get close to it?"

Her voice was full of caution. She had an inexplicable intuition that as soon as she walked into the cave, she would be evaporated into ashes by the terrifying, extremely strong and masculine force.
