Chapter 592

The arrival of Zi Chen's group attracted a lot of attention, especially the Longhu, which attracted the attention of many cultivators.

Many people were tempted by such a flashy mount. Among them, there were quite a few cultivators who were quite wealthy. They were eager to give it a try, but when they saw the owner of the mount, all of their expressions changed.

Although almost two years had passed, many people still recognized Zi Chen sitting on the back of the Longhu.

"Tycoon Fat Antelope."

"What a tycoon Fat Antelope."

"Heavens, so many Primal Core cultivators were chasing after him, but he's still alive."

The crowd was in an uproar, followed by a series of exclamations. It was obvious that many people had seen Zi Chen before and knew who Zi Chen was.

Tycoon Fat Antelope, the name alone was enough to tell that he was worth a lot of money. Besides, some people knew that Zi Chen had Liquefied Yuan, and was once surrounded by Primal Core experts. Some of the cultivators who were interested in buying the Longhu immediately dispersed, abandoning the unrealistic thoughts in their hearts.

Besides, the Longhu had withdrawn its aura and aura. It looked just like a majestic mount. It was not a wise choice to offend a tycoon Fat Antelope for such a mount.

Zi Chen sat on the back of the Longhu and greeted some familiar people, such as the owner of the roasted wing stall. Judging from their surprised expressions, the news of him offending an Overlord faction should not have spread yet.

Then, the group headed straight to the Treasure Pavilion.

The experts of the Shangguan Clan who had received the news were already waiting at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion.

"Senior," Zi Chen jumped down from the Longhu's back and bowed respectfully, while the monk chanted the name of Buddha.

"Zi Chen's name has spread throughout the Bedlam Ground. You're very famous, and your strength is feared by countless people. I'm flattered to hear you call me senior," the expert of the Shangguan Clan said with a smile.

The badge Zi Chen used to enter the Small World was given to him free of charge. Besides, it was obvious that he already knew about the shocking things Zi Chen had done in the depths of the Small World.

"Zi Chen will always remember Senior's kindness in gifting me the token," said Zi Chen.

"It's just a small favor. There's no need to take it to heart. Since you're here, follow me up." The Shangguan Clan expert turned around and went upstairs.

Zi Chen nodded and followed closely behind the Shangguan Clan expert. As for the others, they were free to move about in the marketplace.

Zi Chen followed the Shangguan Family expert to the top floor.

"Back then, when I gave you the token, I only wanted to give you an opportunity. Who would have thought that you would actually cause so much trouble? Not only did you offend the eight powers, you even provoked the overlord powers." After taking a seat on the top floor, the expert from the Shangguan Clan shook his head and said.

"I won't attack unless I'm attacked," Zi Chen replied.

"You, you've made a bigger mistake this time than piercing a hole in the sky." The Shangguan Clan expert sighed.

"Then may I ask if I'll be protected by staying here?" Zi Chen looked at him.

The Shangguan Clan expert pondered for a moment before saying, "Fighting and killing is prohibited in the marketplace. This is an unwritten rule. Since it's a rule, all powers must abide by it. But you must know that the people who are bound by the rules will always be the ones who are bound by the rules. As for the people who set the rules, they naturally won't be bound."

Zi Chen nodded, indicating that he understood. If the overlord powers wanted to make a move, it didn't matter where it was.

"You came straight to me when you arrived at the marketplace. Do you have any doubts that you need me to answer?" The Shangguan Clan expert looked at Zi Chen.

"I do have some doubts." Zi Chen nodded.

"Then tell me."

"I want to ask Senior if there are any overlord powers that surpass the Inner Core realm." After saying that, Zi Chen looked at the Shangguan Clan expert.

"Don't you know whether there are such existences?" The Shangguan Clan expert asked.

Hearing this, Zi Chen's expression changed instantly. He recalled the energy hand that saved the group of Inner Core realm experts and the energy hand that injured the Sky-devouring Wolf at the entrance of the ancient battlefield.

Obviously, the owner of the energy hand was an existence that surpassed the Inner Core realm. For a moment, Zi Chen's expression kept changing.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid now? Are you regretting it? What were you doing when you were domineering back then?" The Shangguan Clan expert joked.

Zi Chen shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid, and I don't regret it. The overlord powers are aggressive and greedy. If I don't kill them, I'll be killed instead. So even if I have to fight to the death with them, I have no regrets."

"You came to me today because of this matter." The Shangguan Clan expert obviously didn't want to be entangled in this matter.

"There's one more thing."

After thinking for a moment, Zi Chen said seriously, "If I dare to ask Senior, if I fight to the death with the overlord powers, will those experts that surpass the Inner Core realm attack me because of this matter?"

"Haha." Hearing Zi Chen's question, the Shangguan Clan expert suddenly laughed out loud.

Zi Chen looked at the other party seriously, but the other party kept laughing. He seemed to find this question very funny and laughed until there were tears in his eyes.

Only when he was tired of laughing did he stop.

"Is this question very funny?" Zi Chen looked at the other party.

"Don't you think it's funny?"

Zi Chen shook his head and said seriously, "It's not funny at all."

Seeing Zi Chen's serious expression, the Shangguan Clan expert stopped laughing and said, "Alright, since you don't think it's funny, I won't laugh. As for the question you just asked, I can't answer it. After all, I'm not at that level."

"Then why are you laughing at me?" Zi Chen stared at him.

"Haha, young man, don't be anxious. Although I can't answer it, I can still answer a little. The kind of existence you mentioned, if they really wanted to attack you, you probably wouldn't have made it here alive," the Shangguan Clan expert said.

"How is that possible?"

Zi Chen said loudly. "At that time, because of the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, they had some scruples. That's why they saved those Jinyuan and didn't attack me."

"I wasn't there at that time, so I can't give you an accurate analysis. But I know that if an existence beyond Jinyuan wanted to kill you, it would only take one finger. You can't be thinking that they didn't even have time to use one finger, right?"

"You mean they didn't want to kill me, but I killed their people. We are enemies," Zi Chen retorted.

The expert from the Shangguan Clan smiled: "Have you ever seen an elephant personally stepping on an ant? If the elephant had to do everything, what would be the point of having jackals and wolves?"

Hearing this, Zi Chen's eyes lit up. He said excitedly, "Senior, you mean that they will only send Jinyuan to deal with me?"

"In theory, yes. You only need to block the attack of Jinyuan."

Seeing Zi Chen's happy face, the Shangguan Clan expert reminded him, "But it's not just the early and middle stages of Jinyuan. There might be late and complete Jinyuan too."

The joy on Zi Chen's face froze. He could fight against a mid stage Jinyuan, but he couldn't guarantee that he could kill one. As for late and complete Jinyuan, he didn't even need to think about it.

After getting the answer, Zi Chen left. Suddenly, an expert from the Shangguan Clan said, "Currently, the Shangguan Clan is discussing the matter of Bing Xi being assassinated by the black-robed men in the ancient battlefield. Before the discussion comes to a conclusion, they will not act against you."

Zi Chen turned his head and thanked him gratefully.

Just as Zi Chen and his group entered the market, the Second Head also entered the Shangguan Clan.

There were a total of eight of them, and they were brought to the side hall by the housekeeper.

"Where's the head of the family?"

Looking at the magnificent side hall, everyone's horizons were broadened. They looked around curiously, but the Second Head didn't forget the purpose of their visit and asked directly.

"I'm the housekeeper here. If there's any news about the barbarians, just tell me directly." The housekeeper smiled. A servant poured a cup of tea for the housekeeper, and the aroma of the tea filled the air.

Looking at the housekeeper drinking tea alone, the Second Head and the others were startled. It seemed that this scene was different from what they had imagined. But it didn't matter.

The Second Head secretly despised the housekeeper of the overlord force for not knowing the rules. He didn't even know the basic etiquette of hospitality. But he still described the characteristics and traces of the barbarians clearly.

"You're saying that they went to the outer regions to establish their forces." The housekeeper put down the teacup in his hand, and a trace of shock appeared on his face.

"That's right. These reckless barbarians even said that they would fight against the overlord force to the end. They even used a few elixir weapons and liquefied Yuan to trick a few idiots into working for them. They wanted to tempt us, but I naturally wouldn't agree. The barbarians fighting against the overlord force is like an egg hitting a mountain. They can't even withstand a single blow." The Second Head said in one breath, and his mouth felt dry.

"Oh, so you're saying that you're in cahoots with the barbarians." The housekeeper picked up the teacup again and took a sip.

"We used to be in cahoots, but after knowing that they dared to disrespect the overlord force, we completely turned against them. We turned over a new leaf and supported the overlord force." The Second Head raised his voice a lot.

"Good, very good. You're really aware." The housekeeper nodded with satisfaction, and then asked: "How many people do you have?"

"Sir, we have a total of 38 people. Apart from the eight of us, the other 20 are waiting outside. If you have any orders, we'll do it immediately." A clever Yu Fei finally seized the opportunity to speak. He wanted to show off in front of the housekeeper.

From their point of view, this was the prelude to being recruited for meritorious service.

"More than 35 people. Hmm, not bad." The housekeeper nodded with satisfaction.

"We have a lot of people, and we're strong. We're definitely a powerful force. Sir, you can use us without worry." The eight people all smiled.

"Indeed, more than 35 people. It's enough."

The housekeeper nodded, and then ignored the eight people who were excited. He said to the door: "Men, behead these eight people and the 20 people outside. Hang their heads on the east gate for three days. Tell them that this is the result of the barbarians offending the overlord force."

"What." The eight people who were full of joy were instantly dumbfounded. They fell into a daze.

"Sir, are you mistaken? We provided clues and traces of the barbarians. You should reward us." The Second Head reacted the fastest. He knelt down and asked.

"Anyone related to the barbarians, leave none alive." The housekeeper's voice was calm, and he drank the tea in the cup.

The Second Head's face turned ashen. At this moment, he finally recognized himself. A mere 35 Yu Fei was nothing in the housekeeper's eyes.
