Tianyang Star Hall’s Sixth Elder, Xia Zhong, and Hu Jinsan discovered the National Master Cheng Yuxiao coming with a massive force at the first moment.
Their first reaction was that Xu Jin must have pleaded for Cheng Yuxiao’s help before his death!
Their second reaction was that it was impossible for Cheng Yuxiao to arrive so quickly!
Using a peerless genius as bait, wasn’t the cost a bit too high?
Was Cheng Yuxiao out of his mind?
Of course, it could also be a coincidence.
The Seventh Elder of Cangming Star Hall, Huang Kejia, had a similar thought.
In the blink of an eye, everyone’s thoughts were spinning, but they all considered one question: what should they do?
If they fled immediately, it would be like muddy water spattering on their trousers—it’s not shit, but it might as well be.
Originally, Xu Jin wasn’t killed by them but died at the hands of an Alien Race; if they fled , the furiously enraged Cheng Yuxiao might not listen to their explanations!
They could hide from others, but it would be too difficult to hide from Cheng Yuxiao!
That was also not possible!
It was very likely they would bear the brunt of Cheng Yuxiao’s anger.
In an instant, they were caught in a dilemma.
However, Xia Zhong and Huang Kejia both came up with the same strategy.
Better a friend to die than for oneself to die.
Conveniently, when both of them had been ordered to go out, their respective Star Lords had given them similar orders: if they took action, they were to frame it on Cangming Star Hall (Tianyang Star Hall).
Now was the time to shovel the thunder onto the other party.
As long as they could withstand Cheng Yuxiao’s potential fury, the aftermath would be easy to handle.
As for the presence of both parties?
Everyone had discovered it long ago.
Both sides were at the Seventh Tier and so close to each other; therefore, both knew full well that the other party had arrived.
The main reason they had not rushed to take action before was that they were hoping the other party would make the first move and then serve as a push.
Unexpectedly, before they made their move, Xu Jin had already died!
In the distance, the Starlight transformed by Cheng Yuxiao was incredibly fast and about to arrive.
At the same time, the roar of Cheng Yuxiao resounded, "Song Ziyue, where’s Xu Jin, where is Xu Jin?"
Within the roar, there was an urgency.
Song Ziyue was shocked and anxious at this time and was scared out of his wits.
He understood all too well the importance of Xu Jin.
He also did not know whether arranging Xu Jin was a mistake.
At this moment under the National Master’s roar, instinctively, he answered loudly with a voice filled with shock and fear, "National Master, Xu Jin... he’s dead!"
The Starlight transformed by Cheng Yuxiao suddenly paused, and a terrifying aura spread out from Cheng Yuxiao at the center.
Cheng Yuxiao had already noticed the four Seventh Tier from the two great Star Halls.
It was also just now that he realized that Cangming Star Hall had sent people too!
As he was considering what to do with this situation.
Suddenly, from two clouds in the high sky, Starlight burst out simultaneously, targeting the hidden positions of both parties.
And at that very instant, the two Seventh Tier from Cangming Star Hall and the two from Tianyang Star Hall appeared at the same time.
The four Seventh Tier emerged simultaneously from above the battlefield.
All the nearby Dachen warriors were dumbstruck.
Cheng Yuxiao was also slightly taken aback.
He never anticipated such a turn of events.
The Seventh Tiers from both families acted against each other, resulting in their simultaneous exposure.
At the same time, Cheng Yuxiao also understood the intentions of both families.
All four to be annihilated?
Unless these four fought to the death without fleeing, Cheng Yuxiao could not achieve that.
And even if he could, he should not do so.
Currently, Dachen’s established strategy was to pull one side and fight the other.
The side to be pulled was naturally Cangming Star Hall.
Then, tear face with Tianyang Star Hall.
In an instant, Cheng Yuxiao found a point to leverage.
He could cause another rift in the relationship between Tianyang Star Hall and Cangming Star Hall with this incident!
"Xia Zhong, Hu Jinsan, you dare to harm the First True Inheritor of Dachen, seeking death!" With just a roar, the Nine Bright Chime emerged, and the four-colored Meteors struck toward Hu Jinsan and Xia Zhong.
As the four-colored Meteors were unleashed, Hu Jinsan, at the Seventh Tier Ninth Layer Peak, spat out blood from a serious injury!
In an instant, the expressions of Huang Kejia and Xia Zhong, among the four, changed again, with their eyes filled with shock and fear.
Cheng Yuxiao had grown stronger!
And he had become very powerful!
He had caused a Seventh Tier Ninth Layer Peak expert to sustain a serious injury with just one strike!
When had he become so fearsome!
"State Preceptor Cheng, it’s a misunderstanding! It wasn’t us, we didn’t act; Xu Jin died at the hands of the Alien Race!" Tianyang Star Hall’s Sixth Elder Xia Zhong explained in a hurry!
"Misunderstanding? Elder Huang said it was you who killed him! If it wasn’t you, then was it Elder Huang and his people!" As Cheng Yuxiao roared, his eyes, like that of a wrathful deity, glared at Huang Kejia of Cangming Star Hall, burning furiously.
Huang Kejia was first shocked by Cheng Yuxiao’s startling strike and then, with Cheng Yuxiao glaring at him, became even more panicked, and subconsciously shouted, "National Master Cheng, it was them, they plotted against Xu Jin!"
The reason for such a subconscious reaction was not just because of Cheng Yuxiao’s intimidation but also because of the earlier planning.
The plan had been to kill Xu Jin and then frame Tianyang Star Hall.
But now, under the intimidation by Cheng Yuxiao, he had jumped straight to this step!
"surname Huang, you’re talking nonsense!" Xia Zhong panicked!
The next instant, as Cheng Yuxiao’s long hair flew about, he charged toward Xia Zhong and Hu Jinsan like a mad tiger.
While Huang Kejia and the other Seventh Tier seized the chance to retreat swiftly.
If they did not flee now, when would they?
The four-colored Meteors illuminated the entire night sky; with the launch of each four-colored Meteor, Xia Zhong and Hu Jinsan who joined forces to face them spat out a large mouthful of blood.
Hu Jinsan’s injuries were even worse.
"National Master Cheng, it really wasn’t us! By not distinguishing right from wrong, do you intend to start a war with our Tianyang Star Hall?" Xia Zhong roared in anger.
