Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 367 This person is actually the Northern King!

Upon hearing the commotion outside, the Master of the Divine Sect immediately stood up. With a wave of his hand, a large knife flew from the table into his grasp. "Alright, now that the fish has taken the bait, let's move out. With the Northern King dead, there should be no obstacle for the Xia Emperor to become a Celestial Being."

Hengyou Daoist said, "I will take people to the new city now. Master Tongshen, I'll leave this to you."

The leader of the Tongshen Cult said, "Stop hesitating and hurry up and kill the Northern King."

Without further ado, Daoist Hengyou left the restaurant and led his disciples out of the north gate of the city, heading straight for the new city.

Before long, the restaurant where the Tong Shen Sect Master was located was surrounded by soldiers from the Northern Kingdom. However, at this time, Heng You Daoist had already led some disciples to the new city.

After Zhuge Chongguang surrounded the restaurant, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Prepare to attack!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers aimed their cannons and mortars at the restaurant.

At this moment, the voice of the Tongshen Sect Leader came from inside the restaurant. He laughed and said, "Truly, things are unpredictable. You, a literary sage, have ended up becoming the Northern King's dog."

Hearing this, Zhuge Chongguang was not angry. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Guests are guests. Why don't the two of you come out and greet us?"

Zhuge Chongguang had already guessed that another person had likely left the old city and headed to the new city to assassinate the Northern King, but he was not worried about the situation there at all.

He could tell that the leader of the Divine Sect was trying to stall for time. So be it, Zhuge Chongguang actually hoped that the people inside could stall for a little longer.

Zhuge Chongguang was a scholar. Although he entered the Dao through literature, his strength might still be somewhat different from that of a martial artist. Zhuge Chongguang was not sure if he could directly defeat the pseudo-celestial being inside.

Therefore, it would be best to have Xuanyuan Chaoge, a celestial being, come over after things are settled with Lu Chen.

Upon hearing Zhuge Chongguang's words, the Master of the Divine Sect continued laughing, "If the Sage of Literature truly considered us guests, how could he have surrounded our restaurant with so many soldiers!"

Zhuge Chongguang said, "Gentlemen, the Northern King knows you have come to the Northern Kingdom, so he specially sent me to invite you to his residence. Are you not even going to give the Northern King this much face?"

The leader of the Divine Sect said disdainfully, "He's just a mere child. What right does he have to make us give him face?"

Seeing Zhuge Chongguang and the Master of the Divine Sect exchanging barbs, Liang Zong couldn't help but say, "Grand Scholar, aren't we going to take action?"

In their efforts to annihilate the assassins of Sifang Mountain and Dingfeng Mountain, they even deployed powerful weapons like cannons, with shells already loaded. Yet, Zhuge Chongguang ended up engaging in verbal sparring with your people instead.

Liang Zong felt that talking to the people inside was a complete waste of time.

Zhuge Chongguang said calmly, "No need to rush, let's wait for Senior Xuanyuan to arrive before we talk about it."

Upon hearing Zhuge Chongguang's words, Liang Zong was slightly taken aback, but instantly understood what Zhuge Chongguang meant. Afterwards, Zhuge Chongguang and the Tongshen Sect Leader in the restaurant continued their verbal sparring.

at the same time.

Hengyou Daoist and his disciples from Dingfeng Mountain quickly arrived at the new city. However, just as they reached a grove of trees some distance from the city gate, the sound of horses' hooves reached their ears.

Hengyou Daoist immediately realized something was wrong, but it was too late. In no time, countless soldiers carrying torches surrounded them.

Upon seeing this, Daoist Hengyou frowned, instantly understanding what was going on.

It seems that the Northern King already knew about their plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

but……

Does it matter?

unimportant!

In the North, there was only one pseudo-celestial being, Zhuge Chongguang.

Zhuge Chongguang can only deal with one place. If Zhuge Chongguang is here, the battle in the old city will end quickly, and then the Tongshen Sect Master will bring the disciples of Sifang Mountain to support them.

If Zhuge Chongguang goes to the old city, then the new city will not have the pseudo-celestial beings to guard it, and these soldiers alone will not be able to stop their advance.

Thinking of this, Daoist Hengyou immediately raised his hand, put two fingers together, and made a gesture for casting a spell. The next moment, countless flying leaves in the forest condensed.

But at that moment, a young man dressed in a python robe appeared in front of the northern soldiers.

Upon seeing this, Daoist Hengyou was stunned for a moment.

He sensed that the young man's strength was comparable to his own, and that his aura was even slightly stronger than his own.

Hengyou Daoist's face instantly darkened.

A pseudo-celestial being?

There's more than one fake celestial being in the Northern Kingdom!

How could that be?

They stayed in the old city for so long in order to find out the specific situation in the Northern Kingdom. After their investigation, they found that Zhuge Chongguang was the only pseudo-celestial being in the Northern Kingdom. How come another pseudo-celestial being has appeared now?

Moreover, this pseudo-celestial being is so young. Hengyou Daoist could roughly guess from his appearance that the man in front of him was definitely no more than thirty years old.

Are you kidding me?

Are there no pseudo-celestial beings over thirty years old?

Are there really martial artists with such terrifying martial arts talent?

These seasoned veterans practiced martial arts for decades before barely reaching the Dao Integration stage, becoming pseudo-celestial beings. Some even became pseudo-celestial beings before the age of thirty.

God is so unfair!

At this moment, Hengyou Daoist cursed the injustice of Heaven in his heart!

Just then, Daoist Hengyou asked warily, "Who are you? Why have I never heard of any martial artist in this world who could reach the Dao Integration stage before the age of thirty?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled faintly and then said, "You came to kill me, yet you don't recognize me. I really can't understand why my father would send people like you."

Upon hearing this, Hengyou Daoist and the disciples of Dingfeng Mountain immediately felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

The Northern King!!!

This person is actually the Northern King!!!

How could the Northern King possess such high martial arts talent?!

Judging by his age, the Northern King doesn't seem to be twenty years old yet!

He has actually entered the Dao Integration stage! He has become a pseudo-celestial being!

Hengyou Daoist was stunned for a moment. He never expected that the young man he was facing was actually their target!

After a while, Hengyou Daoist finally came to his senses, and he thought to himself.

Although the Northern King possesses such high martial arts talent, his realm has advanced too quickly, and his foundation may be unstable, preventing him from unleashing the full power of a pseudo-celestial being. As a result, he is unlikely to be my opponent.

Thinking of this, Daoist Hengyou breathed a sigh of relief; he had almost been intimidated by the Northern King.

Hengyou Daoist then said, "It's truly unexpected that Your Highness possesses such high martial arts talent. However, it's a pity that even a genius needs to be alive to be considered a genius."

Lu Chen said calmly, "So, Daoist Hengyou believes that I am doomed to die tonight?"

Hearing Lu Chen directly state his name, Hengyou Daoist was taken aback again. He knew that the Northern Kingdom had an intelligence agency called the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but he did not expect that this intelligence agency would be so powerful that it could even find out his name.

In fact, this has nothing to do with the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Lu Chen confirmed Hengyou Daoist's identity with the system the moment he first saw him.

Hengyou Daoist decided not to waste any more words. The leaves around him continued to gather, and then he said loudly, "Let this old man test just how strong Your Highness truly is!"

As they spoke, countless flying leaves flew straight towards Lu Chen.
