Chapter 1814 - 1811: Sunset Star Domain
"Brother, will we meet again in the future?"
Anran reached out her fair little hand to hold Li Chen’s big hand.
At this moment, she was no longer the naive little girl but a maiden who had remained true to her original aspirations through a millennium.
"We will!"
Li Chen gave a very affirmative answer.
Hearing Li Chen’s answer, Anran smiled.
Her smile was joyful, like the first time they met.
The Wushan Divine Woman took Anran away, disappearing at the end of the sky.
Li Chen watched the Wushan Divine Woman leave and stood in place for a long time before turning around slowly, ready to depart.
"Little Gold, let’s go!"
Little Gold was the fusion of the Red-footed Golden Crow and the Purple-footed Golden Crow, a new name given by Li Chen.
"Master, where to?" Little Gold flapped its wings, running over to ask.
Li Chen thought for a moment and replied: "To Sunset Star!"
Hearing Sunset Star, Little Gold was startled.
"That place belongs to Emperor Zhuanxu, with the Eight Golden Crows stationed there. If we go rashly..."
At this point, Little Gold did not continue and instead looked up at Li Chen’s expression.
Li Chen smiled faintly and said: "Don’t worry, nothing will happen!"
Hearing Li Chen speak so confidently, Little Gold said nothing more and nodded vigorously like a pecking chick.
...
Sunset Star, this is where Emperor Zhuanxu raises the Golden Crows.
The incident involving the Red-footed Golden Crow and the Purple-footed Golden Crow had already been reported back.
This greatly angered Emperor Zhuanxu.
He immediately summoned his first Divine King, the Gongtian God King.
Gongtian’s cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth stage of Tribulation, being the foremost of the Four Great Immortal Kings under Emperor Zhuanxu.
"Master, why did you summon me so urgently? Is there an important task?"
Gongtian approached and bowed respectfully to Emperor Zhuanxu.
Emperor Zhuanxu commanded: "Gongtian, order now to lead the Eight Golden Crows to find the whereabouts of the Red-footed Golden Crow and the Purple-footed Golden Crow. Find out who dared to be so bold as to insult this seat?"
Gongtian was surprised and asked: "Master, what happened? Did something happen to the Red-footed Golden Crow and the Purple-footed Golden Crow?"
Emperor Zhuanxu nodded and responded: "Yes, not only them, even three Hellhounds were killed. I suspect this is the work of the same Great Power. Investigate this matter thoroughly!"
Gongtian bowed in agreement: "Understood!"
After receiving Emperor Zhuanxu’s command, Gongtian went to Sunset Star, ready to take the Eight Golden Crows to find the whereabouts of the Red-footed Golden Crow and the Purple-footed Golden Crow.
On Sunset Star, there are also the Eight Golden Crows.
There are two Orange-footed Golden Crows, one Yellow-footed Golden Crow, one Green-footed Golden Crow, two Blue-footed Golden Crows, and two Green-footed Golden Crows.
They are all raised here by Emperor Zhuanxu and cannot leave without orders.
The Eight Golden Crows knew Gongtian, and when they saw him approaching, they all went up to greet him.
The largest of the Orange-footed Golden Crows was the first to ask: "Gongtian God King, why are you here? Has the master arrived?"
Before the Orange-footed Golden Crow could finish speaking, the other Golden Crows chirped incessantly.
"Gongtian God King, is there a new task? We’ve been here for millions of years, and we’re really bored!"
"Yes, Gongtian God King, talk to the master and let us out to have fun. We promise not to cause trouble!"
...
Gongtian waved their hand, saying: "Quiet down, the master is not here. However, I have come at the master’s command to announce a task!"
"What task?" the Orange-footed Golden Crow asked first.
Gongtian organized his thoughts and said: "Go find the whereabouts of the Red-footed Golden Crow and the Purple-footed Golden Crow!"
Upon hearing Gongtian’s words, all eight of the Orange-footed Golden Crows were taken aback.
They then started chirping incessantly once more.
"Wasn’t the big brother on a mission for the master, investigating the mystery of the three Hellhounds’ deaths? How could he be missing?"
"Yeah, and wasn’t the little brother exiled by the master to the barbaric region of the cosmos? Did he escape?"
"It shouldn’t be, with little brother’s abilities, how could he escape the master’s cage?"
...
Hearing the Golden Crows’ words, Gongtian felt a headache.
"I’m not sure either of the specifics. Just come along with me!"
Just as Gongtian was about to leave Sunset Star with the Eight Golden Crows, he suddenly saw a large golden bird covering the sky.
Seeing this large golden bird, Gongtian and all the Golden Crows were shocked.
"That seems like the Purple-footed Golden Crow, how did its power increase so much?"
"No, I feel the presence of the older Red-footed Golden Crow too?"
...
As the Eight Golden Crows were in extreme shock, Gongtian saw a figure traverse the sky.
Seeing this scene, he secretly thought something was wrong.
"Not good, an enemy has arrived!"
The newcomer was Li Chen!
At this moment, he stood on Little Gold’s back, looking down on Sunset Star as if he were an emperor.
Gongtian soared into the sky, shouting: "Who are you, and why did you trespass on Sunset Star?"
Li Chen looked at Gongtian and said coldly: "Gongtian, it’s only been a while, and you don’t recognize this emperor?"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Gongtian felt as if he was struck by thunder.
Instantly, he looked as if he had seen a vengeful ghost in broad daylight, full of terror, and said: "You, you, you are Emperor Donghua?"
Li Chen smiled coldly and replied: "That’s right, you remember this emperor!"
After receiving the affirmation from Li Chen, Gongtian was shocked and had only one thought in his mind.
Escape!
Escape immediately!
Go report to his master, Emperor Zhuanxu!
However, he quickly realized that now Sunset Star had been sealed off by a powerful restriction, completely isolated from the outside world.
Li Chen’s gaze was imperious as he looked down at Gongtian, coldly declaring:
"Gongtian, this emperor has returned. The slaughter begins with you!"
After the initial panic, Gongtian slowly calmed down.
He keenly noticed that although Li Chen’s gaze was as imperious and unparalleled as ever.
The aura emanating from him was far less formidable than before.
This meant that Emperor Donghua’s power was far from its peak state.
Thinking of this, Gongtian no longer panicked as before.
In fact, deep within his heart, there was an uncontrollable excitement.
He even began to secretly think that if he could slay this emperor, who once terrified the entire Nine Layers Heaven universe.
Then the name of Gongtian would resound throughout the universe. His prestige could even surpass that of his master, Emperor Zhuanxu, becoming a new generation of super Great Power in the Divine Domain...
