Ti went by quickly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
A morning half a month later.
Huangzhou, Northern Domain.
In a grand hall of the Imperial Palace of the Great Desolate Immortal Country.
A middle-aged man wearing a black and gold robe, with a burly build and rugged features, was discussing matters with four elders.
This middle-aged man was the king of the Great Desolate Immortal Country, "Emperor Beihuang" Huang Tianye.
The four elders were the Country Protecting Elders of the Great Desolate Immortal Country: Huang Chongshan, Xie Wanfeng, Xu Xingzhan, and Zeng Zhaoying.
Huang Tianye frowned and said, "Yu Chen has been gone with Elder Qiao and Elder Sun for so long, why haven’t they returned yet?"
"Yu Chen is probably out having fun."
Huang Chongshan smiled faintly and said, "Don’t worry, I already sent soone to find Yu Chen and the others a few days ago.
There should be news soon."
"Hmph!"
Huang Tianye snorted coldly and said, "This little brat thinks he’s invincible after stepping into Golden Immortal and being nad one of Huangzhou’s top ten prodigies!
All he knows is to play around instead of diligently cultivating!
He doesn’t realize that in front of those top prodigies in the Jiuzhou Immortal Domain, he’s nothing!
When he cos back, I must teach him a good lesson!"
Huang Chongshan waved his hand and said, "Tianye, Yu Chen is still young. Don’t be too harsh on him.
Once he slowly takes over the affairs of our Great Desolate Immortal Country, he will naturally mature."
Huang Tianye sighed and said, "Elder Chongshan, you’re spoiling this boy too much.
If he continues to neglect his cultivation, can he really shoulder the heavy responsibilities of the nation in the future?"
Huang Chongshan smiled faintly and said, "Don’t worry, once Yu Chen cos back, I will strictly guide him and continue to help him improve his cultivation and strength."
"That would be best."
Huang Tianye nodded.
Xie Wanfeng chuckled and said, "Tianye, our Yu Chen has such high cultivation talent. He awakened the ’Desolate Heaven Divine Body’ at the age of twenty-three!
If he is well nurtured, Yu Chen’s future is boundless!"
"Indeed!"
Xu Xingzhan stroked his beard with a smile and said, "As long as Yu Chen puts in a bit of effort, he is certain to beco Huangzhou’s number one prodigy in the future, perhaps even on par with the top prodigies of the Jiuzhou Immortal Domain!"
Huang Tianye shook his head and said, "I don’t have such high expectations for this boy. If he can just beco Huangzhou’s number one prodigy, that would be good enough.
As for being on par with those top prodigies of the Jiuzhou Immortal Domain, that’s simply impossible."
Though he said that, he was still filled with anticipation for his son.
Just then.
"Report!—"
An urgent voice ca from outside.
Huang Tianye and the others turned to see a guard rushing in hurriedly from outside.
"What’s the matter?"
Huang Tianye picked up his teacup, took a sip, and asked calmly.
"Your Majesty... this... this..."
The guard looked sowhat nervous, stamring.
Huang Tianye said impatiently, "What is it? Just say it straight!"
The guard took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty... It seems sothing has happened to the Eldest Prince..."
"What?!"
Huang Tianye was imdiately shocked, "Sothing happened to Yu Chen?! What do you an by that?!"
All four of Huang Chongshan stared intently at the guard.
The guard swallowed hard and said, "A few days ago, under Elder Chongshan’s orders, I went to search for the Eldest Prince.
Later, we learned that the Eldest Prince went to Xuanzhou, then left Xuanzhou for Cangxuan Sea.
We tracked them to the Cangxuan Sea but did not find the Eldest Prince, Elder Qiao, and Elder Sun.
We only found their belongings..."
Saying this, he took out a storage bag and handed it to Huang Tianye.
Huang Tianye took the storage bag and took out its contents.
It was filled with broken weapons and artifact fragnts, stained with bright red blood.
These weapons and artifacts belonged to Huang Yuchen, Qiao Qingshi, and Sun Yanxiu.
Seeing these weapon and artifact fragnts.
Huang Tianye and the five elders of Huang Chongshan turned pale, feeling a surge of unease in their hearts.
"Could it be... could it be that sothing really happened to Yu Chen and the others?!"
"How is this possible?! Who would dare to target the prince of our Great Desolate Immortal Country and the Country Protecting Elders?!"
"But, since their weapons and artifacts are shattered, and there’s blood on them, it clearly indicates a fierce battle!"
"Until the matter is thoroughly investigated, we shouldn’t jump to conclusions!"
Huang Chongshan, Xie Wanfeng, Xu Xingzhan, and Zeng Zhaoying began discussing anxiously.
Huang Tianye fixed his gaze on the guard and said solemnly, "Is it just their weapons and artifacts that you found? No other news?"
The guard, trembling, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, according to what we have found out!
It is said that the Eldest Prince, Elder Qiao, and Elder Sun went to the Cangxuan Sea with the Emperor Da Mang’s son and the Heavenly Netherworld Divine Son!
Also, Elder Fu from Da Mang Immortal Country and Elder Feng from Heavenly Netherworld Immortal Sect accompanied them!
So say that the Eldest Prince and their group had a fierce battle with a group of young people! Even the Da Yi Immortal Country from Xuanzhou and the Reincarnation Sacred Land from Heavenly State got involved!"
"What is going on, and why would Da Yi Immortal Country and Reincarnation Sacred Land get involved?"
Huang Tianye frowned, continuing to ask, "Is there any other news?"
The guard continued, "Your Majesty, we also found out that among the young people who battled with the Eldest Prince, there were Wu Qiansheng from Da Wu Immortal Country, Lu Yunqi from Taixuan Sacred Land, the brother and sister Xia Chaoyang and Xia Ziyan from Da Xia Immortal Country!
Among them was also Yang Luo, who won first place in the refining competition in Xuanzhou, becoming renowned across the Four Minor Prefectures!"
Huang Chongshan frowned and said, "Previously, Yu Chen ntioned having a conflict with a boy nad Yang Luo. Could it be that this is why they fought?"
Xie Wanfeng said puzzledly, "It’s understandable for Yang Luo to have ties with the Da Yi Immortal Country, but why would the Reincarnation Sacred Land in Heavenly State get involved?"
"What else have you found out?"
Huang Tianye asked in a stern voice.
The guard replied, "Your Majesty, this is all the information we have found so far!"
Huang Tianye said emphatically, "Then why are you still kneeling here? Quickly, take people and continue to investigate further!
No matter what, we must find Yu Chen and the others!"
"Yes!"
The guard responded, quickly stood up, and hurriedly left the hall.
After the guard left.
Huang Chongshan said with a trembling voice, "Tianye... Could it be that sothing really happened to Yu Chen and the others..."
Huang Tianye raised his hand to interrupt and said, "Elder Chongshan, don’t worry!
I don’t believe that Yang Luo boy would really kill my son and the elders of my Great Desolate Immortal Country!
Moreover, Wu Qiansheng, Lu Yunqi, Xia Chaoyang, and Xia Ziyan are all involved, they know well the consequences of such actions!
Perhaps Yu Chen and the others are just injured and are recuperating sowhere right now!"
The four of Huang Chongshan nodded, thinking his words made sense.
Still not fully reassured, Huang Tianye imdiately stood up and said, "Elders, let’s go to Da Mang Immortal Country and the Heavenly Netherworld Immortal Sect to inquire about the news!"
"Alright!"
The four elders of Huang Chongshan also stood up and left the hall with Huang Tianye.
