Devouring the Starry Sky: You will become stronger through practice

While Luo Shen was diligently and hard working on studying spirituality, several centuries had already passed.

Perhaps it was because Marquis Chu Yuan had taught Di Chuyu a lesson, or perhaps it was because when these first-class marquises were assigning tasks, Di Chuyu no longer competed with the other party for limited tasks, so the situation that had been expected to target Luo Shen did not occur.

But everyone knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

After all, there are only a few king-level missions with high net worth, and all these first-class marquises want to improve their own strength. If they don't fight or compete, they will only fall behind and be beaten. Especially for a newly promoted first-class marquis like Di Chuyu, if he wants to narrow the gap with other first-class marquises, he can only snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

This is also the reason why Marquis Chu Yuan had taken action against Emperor Chuyu before.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a task this time!"

In the First-Class Marquis's Mansion, Di Chuyu was looking at the task in front of him with shining eyes. This was the latest king-level task.

King-level missions, especially high-net-worth king-level missions, can only be encountered occasionally even by first-class marquises, and they cannot be won every time, because these first-class marquises need to choose missions in order.

Although Di Chuxiong is the strongest, if he chooses this king-level mission this time, the next time it will be the turn of the second-ranked one, and so on, and so on, repeating over and over again, to prevent the strength of a first-class marquis from constantly improving while the other first-class marquises can only watch and have no competitiveness.

After Di Chuyu’s transaction with the Lord of Lianhuo City, he never took the initiative to choose a mission again, so this time, he has the first priority.

Newly promoted first-class candidates also have priority in choosing tasks.

After realizing the value of this task, Di Chuyu did not think much about it and directly chose to take on the task. The reason he did not compete with the other party before was simply because there were no suitable tasks.

Now that he has priority and it's such a good mission, he certainly won't miss it.

The other first-class marquises also learned the news at the same time after Di Chuyu chose this mission.

Di Chuxiong, the most powerful first-class marquis, only raised his eyebrows after hearing the news, and immersed himself in his own mission world again. To him, the newly promoted first-class marquis was not a big threat to him, and even if he got this mission, it was unlikely that he would catch up with him.

So he didn't pay much attention.

Secondly, even if he did not take action, Chu Yuanhou, who had a hot temper and looked down on Di Chuyu, would definitely take action. There was no need to waste time on such things.

Chu Luohou, who had a good relationship with Emperor Chuxiong and Chu Yuanhou, couldn't help but frowned after hearing the news.

"This Chu Yuhou knows Chu Yuan's temper very well, but he still dares to choose this mission to provoke him. It seems that the other party is also quite confident. If this fight really comes to an end, Chu Yuan will probably suffer a loss, right?"

Thinking of this, Chu Luohou stood up and was about to find Chu Yuanhou.

"No, no, considering Chu Yuan's character, if I try to intercept him, it will only arouse his anger even more."

The hot temper of Marquis Chu Yuan was obvious to all, and with the love of the ancestor, he never restrained himself even in a place like the imperial capital of the ancient country of Yanfeng. Anyway, with the other party's strength as a first-class marquis, only Emperor Chuxiong could suppress him.

Thinking of this, Chu Luohou could only sit back down and pay close attention to the situation on Di Chuyu's side.

If Marquis Chu Yuan and Marquis Chu Yu came to blows, he would always keep an eye on the situation, and as long as Marquis Chu Yuan was in danger, he would help him immediately.

As the saying goes, there is a difference between close and distant relatives. Marquis Chu Luo doesn't care whether his actions will make Emperor Chuyu unhappy.

In addition to Marquis Chu Luo and Di Chuxiong, there are other first-class marquises who are also paying attention to the location of Di Chuyu's first-class marquis' mansion. Of course, they all understand that even if Marquis Chu Yuan is not very smart, he will not directly attack the first-class marquis' mansion.

You know, even the cave of a guest official like Luo Shen can mobilize a bit of the power of the imperial capital's protective formation!
Even the Chaos Lord, an existence at a higher level, would be terrified!

As a candidate for the Emperor's son, the first-class marquisate is still within the protection period of 30 centuries. The power of the imperial capital city that can be mobilized by Emperor Chuyu's cave is so strong that even the ancient God King does not dare to confront it easily.

"This Chu Yuhou is really quite courageous!"

"That's true, but unfortunately, he dared to provoke Marquis Chu Yuan, which meant he was bound to get himself into trouble. Before thirty centuries, we were protected by the rules of the imperial capital and we couldn't suppress him. But after thirty centuries, it's hard to say."

"More than that! Marquis Chu Yu can hide in the cave and enjoy the protection of a first-class marquis' mansion, but the guests under his command cannot hide."

"Once the real body of Chu Yuhou's guest official dies once, the treasures on his body will definitely fall off, and his strength will be greatly reduced. After the protection period, Chu Yuhou will not be able to cause any trouble."

The first-class men each had their own thoughts.

But they all chose to watch the show, wanting to see what Marquis Chu Yuan would do. As for those who wanted to personally teach Emperor Chuyu a lesson, not a single one of them did.

After all, Marquis Chu Yuan had already taken action once before.

It was exactly as everyone thought.

After Marquis Chu Yuan found out that Di Chuyu had once again used his priority to choose to take this king-level mission, a feeling of dissatisfaction as if he had been slapped in the face instantly burned through his heart. In his opinion, what qualifications did Di Chuyu, a newly promoted first-class marquis, have to compete with them.

Although Di Chuyu is an infinite divine body, he has unlimited possibilities relying on the cultivation resources of a first-class marquis.

But all of these first-class marquises have infinite divine bodies, and the difference in strength between them is as great as the difference between heaven and earth. What qualifications does a newly promoted first-class marquis like Di Chuyu have to fight with them?
So Marquis Chu Yuan went straight to Emperor Chu Yu to call him to account.

of course.

It is impossible to rush directly into the first-class marquis's mansion. Except for going to the inheritance hall of the Di Chu lineage, Di Chuyu never leaves his cave at other times. That time, Marquis Chu Yuan also waited for a long time before Di Chuyu left the cave.

So this time, he only contacted Di Chuyu through the communication token he had in the imperial capital.

The cold voice was transmitted to Di Chuyu through the token: "Di Chuyu, you haven't suffered enough last time, you are so bold that you dare to snatch the king-level mission from me!"

But Di Chuyu, who was already prepared, sneered and replied: "Marquis Chu Yuan, you don't have to show off your power as a first-class marquis in front of me. We are all first-class marquises, and this time it is my priority. What's wrong with me taking on this task!"

"Why, do you still want to teach me a lesson like last time?"

Without waiting for a reply from the other party, Di Chuyu continued, "I know that you, Marquis Chu Yuan, are powerful and can be said to be invincible at the same level, but I am waiting for you in the First-class Marquis' Mansion now. Come and kill me if you have the guts!"

"Don't you dare? Then get out of here!"

Emperor Chuyu deliberately provoked Marquis Chu Yuan, and every word he said hit the other party's heart.

Moreover, Marquis Chu Yuan had a hot temper.

Being provoked by Di Chuyu, he was immediately furious and couldn't even speak straight. He only said one sentence for Di Chuyu to hear clearly: "You coward, you only dare to hide in the mansion? Come out if you have the guts!"

But Di Chuyu was very leisurely, and replied calmly: "Hey, you really guessed it right. Before the protection period ends, I will stay in the Marquis' Mansion and never leave. What can you do to me?" "Not only that."

"I will not be modest in any of the following missions. I will not give you any chances if I can grab any!" Di Chuyu's voice suddenly turned cold: "We are both first-class marquises. I want to see why you, Marquis Chu Yuan, can defeat me!"

Marquis Chu Yuan was extremely angry!
Ever since he became a first-class marquis, he hasn't met anyone who dared to offend him for a long time, even if the other person is also a first-class marquis.

Even Di Chuxiong, the first-class marquis who became the Lord of Chaos and reached a transcendent level, had never provoked him like this because of Marquis Chu Luo. Di Chuyu was really the first one.

But Di Chuyu didn't even give him a chance to reply and directly cut off the communication, leaving Chu Yuanhou with all his rage stuck in his throat.

"Emperor Chuyu!!"

With red eyes, Chu Yuanhou roared loudly in his cave. The horrifying fluctuations of his divine power even caused the residence he lived in to collapse. It was obvious that he was so angry that his divine power was unstable.

"Revenge! I must take revenge on him!"

Marquis Chu Yuan began to mobilize people.

Soon, the two guests who followed Marquis Chu Yuan arrived at his cave. Looking at the ruins around them, the two guests looked at each other, and after confirming their eyes, they saluted Marquis Chu Yuan together.

"Chu Yuanhou!"

One of them sprinkled green light from his right hand, and the light dripped onto the body of Chu Yuanhou.

The green light seemed to have a strange magical power to calm people down. The irritable Chu Yuanhou, who was previously surrounded by the power of thunder, gradually calmed down at this moment, and all the thunder power was gathered into his body.

"Marquis Chu Yuan, Qiemo was angered by Marquis Chu Yu's provocation."

Seeing that Marquis Chu Yuan's expression had returned to calm, the guest official who had previously shone with brilliance spoke up, "Marquis Chu Yu was deliberately provoking you, making you angry and mad, and forcing you to break into his first-class marquis' mansion, so that you would violate the laws set by the ancestor, and then imprison you in a cage, just like before, for ten thousand epochs!"

Before becoming a first-class marquis, Chu Yuanhou was already a super genius with a great reputation.

But Emperor Chu Yuan had no such helpers at that time, so when faced with provocations, he would often explode directly. On one occasion, Emperor Chu Yuan violated the laws set by his ancestors. As a descendant of the royal family, he broke the law knowingly and was punished with an even greater crime.

Although his crime was not punishable by death, he was eventually imprisoned in an ice cage and was held there for a full ten thousand epochs before being released.

It was during his imprisonment in the frost cage that Marquis Chu Yuan was able to calm down and practice. Soon after being released from the frost cage, he actually became a first-class marquis.

"Am I going to be bullied by him like this without making any move?"

Hearing this, Marquis Chu Yuan was unhappy. He had never been bullied like this since he grew up, even when he was imprisoned in the ice cage. How could he suppress his anger?

"Lord Chu Yuan, I'm certainly not asking you to just let it go."

The guest official waved his hands hurriedly.

He knew Chu Yuanhou's temper very well. If he didn't vent his anger, he was afraid that the other party would really go crazy at any time and do something irrational.

As the saying goes, it is better to unblock than to block, so we still have to think of some way to resolve it.

"Di Chuyu has made up his mind to stay in the Marquis' Mansion during the protection period and not leave. We can't do anything to him." The old guest with a glorious face spoke.

The guest official who had been silent beside him also added: "According to the ancestor's rules, attacking the relatives of a first-class marquis is equivalent to attacking a first-class marquis."

"Correct!"

Seeing that Marquis Chu Yuan's expression was getting darker and darker, the old guest official added hurriedly: "Although we can't control Emperor Chuyu, and we can't attack his relatives, the one that Emperor Chuyu relies on now is his guest official, right?"

"Since he is so arrogant, let's take action against his guest officials!"

The silent guest official spoke again: "There are no laws or regulations to teach a guest official a lesson. Even if you kill him, we will not hold him accountable."

When Chu Yuanhou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Because there are so many guest officials in the ancient country of Yanfeng, almost every first-class marquis has a varying number of first-class marquises under his command, plus some ordinary guest officials, who fight endlessly with each other for the sake of interests and resources. Therefore, the ancient country of Yanfeng has always turned a blind eye to the issue of guest officials.

As long as they don't betray the ancient country of Yanfeng, everything else is up to them.

Chu Yuanhou said: "But Abyss is a powerful person at the peak level of Chaos Overlord. He must have practiced many life-saving techniques. It is probably impossible to kill him completely."

Even though Chu Yuanhou had almost no rivals among people of the same level, it was too difficult to kill a Chaos Overlord at the peak level, even with several helpers.

Especially some top strong people, each of them has a secret method to save their lives.

Even if their true form is killed, they will recover again with the help of their life-saving secret techniques, making them very difficult to kill.

The old guest smiled and said, "Your Highness, although the three of us cannot completely kill him, as long as we can kill him once and take away the treasures he has accumulated over the years, he will definitely be heartbroken. Even if he is resurrected, his strength will definitely be damaged."

"If Di Chuyu doesn't compensate him for his losses, it will be a question whether the other party is willing to continue to help Di Chuyu."

Hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Chu Yuanhou's face: "Yes! If we can't teach Di Chuyu a lesson, we will teach his guest officials a lesson. I want to see if he can continue to live peacefully in that cave!"

In Emperor Chuyu's cave.

After cutting off the communication with Chu Yuanhou, he contacted Luo Shen: "I think that Chu Yuanhou has already made a plan. Based on my understanding of him, the time for them to take action is probably not far away."

Luo Shen smiled and said, "Your Highness, we are ready. If they dare to come, we will kill them!"

"Don't be careless."

Di Chuyu shook his head and said, "Those guys from the branch clans are all thinking about their own little plans. Don't count on them too much. If anything really happens, hide in the Inspection Office immediately."

Luo Shen nodded.

As the security executive department of Chu City, the Inspection Department is also able to mobilize a part of the power of Chu City. Although it is not as powerful as that of the Imperial Capital, it is enough to deal with several Chaos Lords at the peak level.

"This time, they will definitely be punished!" (End of this chapter)
