Tianyang Star Hall.
After returning from the Great Chen Imperial Palace, the Tianyang Star Lord was overjoyed.
He even held a banquet, calling several elders who were still in the Star Hall to join him for drinks and a feast, including the Great Elder Wang Kan. As for the array of exquisite cuisine, it needs not be ntioned, and there were troops of dancers of distinctive styles continuously entering the hall to perform.
Among the dancers were a few from the Alien Race with exotic charm, so with wings and others with tails, but regardless of their appearance, they were all youthful, beautiful, and extraordinarily enchanting.
The senior mbers of the Tianyang Star Hall didn’t understand why the Star Lord was so happy, but they didn’t need to.
When the Star Lord was happy, everyone was happy.
So, it was only right to share in the happiness.
The Tianyang Star Lord had his reasons for happiness.
Most people had never co into contact with the matter of the Authority of the Star-picking Tower Masters of the nations and were unaware of that level.
Only those who had obtained it had truly co into contact and understood what it represented.
It was not just the Authority of the Star-picking Tower Masters of the nations, but it also signified the real Heaven and Earth Will or the Heaven and Earth Authority of the present world!
Although the half-tenth he had received from Dachen might only have two or three percent of the current Heaven and Earth Will, it was indeed a great leap forward.
In the future, his chance to break through to the Ninth Tier would have increased by half-tenth.
Cheng Yuxiao had suffered a heavy loss this ti.
The pit that he and the Cangming Star Lord had casually dug twenty years ago had finally borne fruit today.
And it had been harvested into his own hands.
Cheng Yuxiao fundantally misunderstood the imperial authority.
Imperial authority has always been exclusive.
You must either completely subdue it or beat it into submission, just like the Emperor Dahong and the Emperor of Dachu, despite being emperors before others, they had to bow in front of him and the Cangming Star Lord, without even the status to sit down.
But Cheng Yuxiao thought of coexisting peacefully with imperial authority, which was too naive!
This was related to the initial positioning of the Da Chen National Daoist School, which was the predecessor of the National Taoist Institute, and the Institute taking on the mission in tis of crisis.
It was also related to the pit they had casually dug.
"Ladies and gentlen, to our victory!"
The joyful Tianyang Star Lord raised his glass again.
Before he had finished drinking, suddenly, a Starlight Transmission arrived, which instantly made his face turn sour and his heart’s joy disappeared by more than half.
With a wave of his hand, the dancing girls retreated, and most people, except for the Great Elder, also left.
Monts later, the Sixth Elder Xia Zhong, shrouded in starlight, appeared.
No sooner had he appeared than he gave the Great Elder Wang Kan a start; not to ntion the Sixth Elder’s faint aura, from the chest down, everything vanished—his wounds were critical; he was maid!
"Your Lordship, your subordinate returns in reporting duty!" The Sixth Elder Xia Zhong bowed with a mournful voice.
"Rise, please rise!"
The Tianyang Star Lord glanced at Xia Zhong’s injuries and furrowed his brow. Such injuries were nearly fatal.
"Your Lordship, your subordinate has not shad his mission and has successfully assassinated Xu Jin. However, Cheng Yuxiao arrived furiously in pursuit and killed Hu Jinsan; your subordinate was severely injured and only barely escaped with his life thanks to the space emblem!" Xia Zhong spoke.
The expression of the Tianyang Star Lord beca incredibly complex in a split second.
It could be described as a mix of happiness, shock, and sorrow!
The joy was for Xu Jin, the future prodigy of Dachen, finally being killed!
A potential future threat was removed.
But the shock was due to the heavy losses to the Tianyang Star Hall!
In this battle, the future Expert Xu Jin, who was just barely a Fourth Tier in power, had been eliminated.
What had the Tianyang Star Hall sacrificed?
Hu Jinsan, a Seventh Rank Ninth Layer Peak Expert, lay dead, and another of the sa rank, Xia Zhong, was critically maid.
As for Hu Jinsan, it was alright; his hopes of breaking through to the Eighth Tier in the future were very bleak, but, in any case, he was a top Seventh Tier combat power.
How many Seventh Tier Experts did the Tianyang Star Hall have?
Not counting the Galaxy Battlefield, there were less than ten active in the present world.
In just two short months, after Hu Zhen’s miserable death, Hu Jinsan has now t a tragic end, and now, the Sixth Elder Xia Zhong was severely injured.
Let’s not talk about Hu Zhen; these two alone, for the sake of one Xu Jin, cost the Tianyang Star Hall one-tenth of its Seventh Tier force.
It was hard to say whether this deal was a loss or a gain!
Especially the Sixth Elder Xia Zhong, who was a seed candidate for breaking through to the Eighth Tier in the future.
With such an injury...
The Tianyang Star Lord, looking at the critically injured Xia Zhong, had already decided he must be healed.
Xia Zhong had completed the mission—that was a Great rit.
After thinking it over, the Tianyang Star Lord’s mind flickered, and he took out a red tree-like object from his Suru Space and handed it to Xia Zhong, "Elder Xia, this is the Dragon Fish Cinnamon obtained from the Seventh-Order Star Domain. It can revive the dead, nd flesh to bones, and even regenerate limbs. You should take it and refine it as soon as you can. Not only can it completely heal your wounds,
but it can also fully replenish your lack of Innate Essence Blood, increasing your chances of breakthrough by at least one-tenth!"
Seeing this treasure, Sixth Elder Xia Zhong was overwheld with excitent, kowtowing on the spot with endless thanks, while in his heart, he secretly sighed in relief.
Before this in Pill State, Cheng Yuxiao had insisted that they had killed Xu Jin and then killed Hu Jinsan. After Xia Zhong narrowly managed to escape with his life, he kept worrying about this issue.
How to manage the aftermath!
Now, he hadn’t completed the mission and was critically wounded and disabled.
After his return, it would’ve been good news if the Tianyang Star Lord didn’t punish him.
In the future, he’d likely have to step down from the upper echelons of the Tianyang Star Hall’s Authority.
Even if he could regenerate his limbs, with such inept performance, the Tianyang Star Lord would definitely never trust him again!
His Authority would definitely take a major hit.
On the way back to the Tianyang Star Hall, Xia Zhong suddenly had a stroke of inspiration, considering this very possibility.
