Xiao Chen glanced at the three of them, and he could see all the subtle changes in their expressions.
"No... not familiar!" the leader shook his head quickly.
"Are you really unfamiliar?" Xiao Chen chuckled.
"It's true that I'm not familiar with him, but he was once the Young Palace Master of the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces and a famous genius in the Nirvana Realm, so we have all seen him and heard about him!"
"So that's it!" Xiao Chen said with a sudden expression, "Then the Young Master Zijue and I are going back to the Dragon Soul Twelve Palace, do you still want to stop us?"
"No...since you are a friend of Young Palace Master Zijue, you are naturally qualified to enter the Nirvana Realm. Please, please!" The leading man moved out of the way.
"See you later!"
Xiao Chen smiled coldly, carrying Zi Jue and flying into the Nirvana Realm.
"Boss, why did you stop us from taking action just now?" The other two people asked strangely, "That boy has made it clear that he is related to the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces. If we catch him, we might get information about Duan Qingcang."
"Idiot, can't you see that Zijue is being held hostage?" the leading man cursed.
"Of course we can see it, but in this case, we should take action even more. Zi Jue is not one of our own?"
"That's not what I meant. What I meant is that the three of us can't beat this kid!" The leading man said gloomily, "If we had made a move just now, I don't know who would have been killed."
"Boss, are you crazy? That guy is just a Hedao!" the two people said in shock.
"Hmph, a Hedao can make Zijue, who is already in the middle stage of the Divine Lord Realm, unable to resist and show that look of fear? A Hedao dares to walk through the Nirvana Realm without any taboos?"
"this……"
"My judgment of people is not wrong. That boy is definitely unusual. To be on the safe side, we will return to Tianni Palace immediately and ask the elders of the God Emperor to kill that boy."
…
Although Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces was established only a short time ago, it was indeed famous in the Nirvana God Realm.
If not for anything else, it’s because of Duan Qingcang, a powerful ninth-level God Emperor.
When Duan Qingcang first appeared in the Nirvana Realm, he single-handedly destroyed a quasi-imperial force, killed three powerful God Emperors, and shocked the Nirvana Realm.
After the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces were established, big figures from all forces in the Nirvana Domain came to congratulate them one after another.
They were not interested in the future of Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces, but they were just interested in Duan Qingcang, a powerful ninth-level God Emperor, and wanted to make good friends with him.
Therefore, during that time, the legend of Duan Qingcang and the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces was everywhere in the Nirvana Realm, which was very popular for a while.
But maybe it’s because the tree is so big that it attracts the wind, or maybe it has an ulterior motive.
Six years ago, the three emperor-level forces that had always been good friends with the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces suddenly joined forces to launch an attack. They first besieged and seriously injured Duan Qingcang, and then massacred the Twelve Palaces' people.
But what's puzzling is that they didn't kill them all and completely wiped out the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces.
Now six years have passed, the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces still exist, but things have changed and people have changed. There are only a few elders and a dozen disciples in the palace.
When Xiao Chen stepped into the Twelve Palaces of Dragon Soul, he found that it occupied a very large area. At a casual glance, he discovered dozens of palaces.
It's just that most of these palaces are dilapidated, and the traces left by the war are obvious. Nowadays, the buildings are empty and no one is taking care of them, making them even more desolate.
And further away, there are at least hundreds of undulating peaks, majestic and majestic. Each peak is shrouded in fairy mist, and the spiritual energy is very strong. It is an excellent place for practice.
Xiao Chen flew all the way without seeing a single person for a long time, and no one stopped him.
Finally, he landed in a main hall due east.
Among the many palaces, only this palace is intact and has obvious signs of being taken care of.
Entering the courtyard, Xiao Chen finally met the first person in the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces.
She was a young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was still young, with black hair, and a slightly thin figure. Her strength was not even that of the God King. In a place like Nirvana, she was very lowly.
At this moment, she was sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard with a broom, very carefully.
But as Xiao Chen approached, she also noticed it. She looked up at Xiao Chen, trembled again, lowered her head and said nervously: "Brother, you are in the wrong place. If you want to find a place to practice, you can go to the back.
The mountain peaks where the spiritual energy is abundant!"
Xiao Chen heard this and asked strangely: "You seem to be afraid of me?"
"No...no, senior brother, you misunderstood!" The girl was even more nervous and stuttered a bit when she spoke.
Xiao Chen was quite speechless, but at the same time he felt a trace of pity.
He had just investigated and found that on the mountain peaks, there were many practitioners practicing or retreating, and even building private caves, including Hedao, Divine Lord Realm, and maybe even Divine Emperors.
Given the current predicament of the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces, it is impossible for there to be so many strong people.
In other words, those who occupy the mountain peaks do not belong to the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces, but are people from other forces who come to enclose the land and occupy the magpie's nest.
The girl obviously didn't recognize him, but she called him senior brother when she opened her mouth. She obviously regarded him as a disciple of other forces and came to encircle the territory.
"What's your name?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Xue...Xue Yan!" the girl whispered back.
"Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces are in such a state of decline, why don't you leave?" Xiao Chen looked at Xue Yan, his eyes never looking away for a moment.
"This is my home, where can I go if I leave here?" Xue Yan said sadly.
"Besides you, how many people are there in the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces?" Xiao Chen asked again.
This time, Xue Yan did not answer immediately. She raised her head and looked at Xiao Chen with a complicated expression.
Because Xiao Chen was different from the people she had met before, and the questions he asked were all strange.
Seeing Xue Yan's vigilant look, Xiao Chen smiled helplessly: "Xue Yan, don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I just want to join the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces."
"Join the Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces?" Xue Yan was shocked and looked incredulous.
Nowadays, the Twelve Palaces of Dragon Soul exist in name only, and only she and a few nostalgic elders still stick to it and muddle along.
Who else wants to join in this situation?
Could it be that you are crazy?
"Senior brother, please stop entertaining me!" Xue Yan smiled bitterly, she thought Xiao Chen must be looking for her to be happy.
"Xiaoyan, what happened?"
An old man walked out of the inner courtyard and saw Xue Yan talking to a strange young man. He immediately stepped forward worriedly, fearing that something would happen.
"This young master, may I ask who you are..."
The old man has the cultivation level of the Divine Lord, but he is also very respectful to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen could see that underneath this respect, there was anger, humiliation, and worry.
"Elder Yun, he doesn't seem to be here to cause trouble." Xue Yan glanced at Xiao Chen and whispered to the old man, "He said he wanted to join us."
"Join us?" The old man didn't respond for a moment.
"It means becoming a disciple of Dragon Soul Twelve Palaces." Xue Yan explained.
"This..." the old man looked at Xiao Chen with a strange expression, "Master, are you sure you are not joking?" (To be continued)
