Although Chen Xuan and his group did not deliberately make a big fuss when they arrived, each of them was a Saint Son or Saint Daughter, and one of the most outstanding ones at that. Their appearance and aura alone instantly attracted the attention of a large number of cultivators who had stopped in the void.

Soon, a bald old man with triangular eyes approached. He arrived with a smile and first cupped his hands to Chen Xuan and the others, "Senior, are you also here to watch the battle? Do you have any first-hand information?"

Seeing that Han Jiuling wanted to dismiss this person, Chen Xuan smiled and raised his hand to look at the bald old man, "First-hand information? How much?"

The old man was merely a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator with mediocre strength. Approaching him was a huge risk for him. Upon hearing this, he eagerly replied, "Only one hundred high-grade source stones will suffice."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan merely smiled and waved his hand, sending a hundred source stones flying towards the old man. "You can simply verbally provide the information."

The old man hurriedly put away the Origin Stone and immediately nodded, "Yes, yes, senior, this old man would certainly not dare to hold back."

Compared to the old man's enthusiastic explanation, Chen Xuan and the other seventeen people all unleashed their powerful divine senses or Dao Eye abilities at this moment.

After piercing through layers of clouds, his gaze or divine sense quickly landed on a huge star, where three faces that Chen Xuan was extremely familiar with came into view.

Dressed in a plain robe, with long white hair flowing freely, was Zhang Lingyu. Her aura was incredibly sharp and penetrating, and her presence was like a sword reaching to the sky.

The young man on the left, dressed in a black Taoist robe with his hair tied in a bun, looked sleepy and occasionally called out lazily to the blocked starry sky below, "Hey, big shots of Phoenix City, we Taoist masters have been waiting for three days. You've invited enough starry sky sects to watch the battle, so hurry up and come out! Don't hold me up while I'm setting up my fortune-telling stall!"

Between the two stood a young woman in a long white dress. She had delicate features, phoenix eyes, sword-like eyebrows, and a pert nose. In her right hand, she held a cyan divine sword. Hearing Wang Ye's urging, she frequently lowered her head and frowned. "Release my clan's descendant. That's it. Then compensate my clan with three million cubic units of Origin Liquid, and this matter will be settled. If you dare disobey, hmph..."

Jiang Linglong's words were a sweeping outwards with his divine sense, spreading indiscriminately in all directions, and soon reached the ears of Chen Xuan and his group of seventeen.

The bald old man, who was recounting the whole story, trembled upon hearing that it cost three million cubic units of Origin Liquid. He couldn't help but turn around and glance at the location of the telepathic transmission. "Three million cubic units of Origin Liquid? They really dare to ask for that much. I bet even if they sold all of Phoenix City's ancestral property, they still wouldn't be able to raise enough."

Chen Xuan chuckled, then lowered his head as if to cover his face. This was clearly a robbery, not revenge.

"Three million cubic meters of Origin Liquid, that's roughly equivalent to the Holy City's total resource output for three years?" Fu Sheng gasped, looking at Chen Xuan and asking, "Was your disciple a bandit in his youth?"

"Hahaha..." Han Jiuling also laughed heartily. It was rare to see Chen Xuan make a fool of himself, so he added fuel to the fire, saying, "Truly, like master, like disciple. This tone, Brother Chen Xuan, is very similar to yours."

Joking aside, Xuan Ye, Dao Yi, and the others still advised Chen Xuan to intervene in the matter immediately.

"The core star of Phoenix City has been besieged like this for three whole days, yet it has managed to endure it. Brother Chen Xuan, this matter is rather strange," Tianmang reminded him.

At this moment, the bald old man who was dictating the information immediately chimed in, "No, no, it's not that they can hold back, it's that these three little devils have already killed two Celestial Immortals from Phoenix City in three days. The current response of the Imperial City Ancestor is to wait for strong reinforcements."

"Wait a minute..." Han Jiuling stared at the bald old man, "Three Nascent Soul Realm brats, killing two Celestial Immortals from Phoenix City in three days?"

“It’s absolutely true. Otherwise, the Phoenix Town Clan Formation would have already been activated, trapping those three little devils.” Unable to hear Chen Xuan and the others’ voice transmissions, the old man automatically categorized Jiang Linglong and the others as little devils.

"These three young people, whose origins are unknown, appeared out of nowhere four hundred years ago. After venturing into the Void Realm several times, they slaughtered everyone and became famous."
