Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

Book 2: Chapter 28: Tongtian Tower



Jiang Wang took a step forward, and the light and shadow shifted.

As for Lian Que, who was left in the Tianfu Dragon Palace, he would naturally be moved out of the Tianfu Secret Realm after everything settled.

What appeared in front of them was an extremely wide platform, seemingly built on top of a high mountain.

It was made of stone and reached high into the clouds.

Looking around, there were clouds and mist, with glimpses of mountain shadows.

In the center of the platform was a nine-sided tower that seemed to stretch endlessly when looking up.

There was a plaque on the tower with the words "Tongtian Tower" written on it.

In front of the tower stood a stone tablet with three people standing in front of it.

Xu Xiangqian, Li Longchuan, and Chong Xuan Sheng.

Xu Xiangqian was studying the stone tablet, touching it left and right.

Li Longchuan, with a jade belt tied around his forehead, stood upright like a pine tree, closing his eyes to rest.

Chong Xuan Sheng, with his fat figure, stood to the side, occasionally glancing at Xu Xiangqian and Li Longchuan with a vigilant look, as if he was worried about being attacked by them.

These three people, who were completely different in appearance and personality, unexpectedly had a harmonious atmosphere when gathered together.

As soon as Jiang Wang appeared, Li Longchuan opened his eyes, his whole body ready to attack, a sharp aura locking onto him.

Like a bow about to be released, like a string about to be pulled.

After seeing Jiang Wang, he smiled slightly as a gesture of greeting, and his aura immediately converged.

As soon as Jiang Wang appeared, Chong Xuan Sheng's small eyes lit up, immediately waving and saying, "Brother Jiang, over here!"

Perhaps it was finally meeting up with his teammates, his back straightened and his voice became louder.

Xu Xiangqian was too focused, and only after hearing the sound did he know that Jiang Wang had arrived. He turned around and greeted him, "They said they hadn't encountered you, but I knew you would definitely come here."

He was quite confident in Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang just smiled and greeted Xu Xiangqian and Li Longchuan, then walked directly to Chong Xuan Sheng, taking out the Horn of the Azure Dragon, saying, "I have fulfilled my promise!"

Looking at the Horn of the Azure Dragon, Chong Xuan Sheng's expression became complicated.

"Brother Jiang," he said, "you should know that the Heart Demon Curse is ineffective here."

Before entering the Tianfu Secret Realm, no one knew what the situation would be like here.

Many people's methods were rendered useless, and Jiang Wang's oath on the Heart Demon Curse could not be fulfilled.

In reality, he could completely not give the Horn of the Azure Dragon to Chong Xuan Sheng. The Heart Demon Curse could no longer restrain him.

And from a realistic perspective, no one would remember this matter after leaving the Tianfu Secret Realm. The actual gains were visible in the Divine Mansion.

"I know," Jiang Wang smiled, "but this is what I promised you."

He handed the Horn of the Azure Dragon to Chong Xuan Sheng. "Take it."

Chong Xuan Sheng carefully examined the Horn of the Azure Dragon and exclaimed, "It's really a good thing! However... I already have one."

He returned it to Jiang Wang. "Now it's the second part of our agreement. I will help you obtain the Divine Mansion opportunity. Take it."

Jiang Wang couldn't help but smile and said, "Then you might as well choose and see which one is better."

"Who knows which one is rarer before truly exploring the Divine Mansion?" Chong Xuan Sheng shook his head, smiling with his eyes narrowed, "I'll just leave it to fate and respect the choices of destiny."

At this point, Jiang Wang would no longer hesitate. He put away the Horn of the Azure Dragon and sat down on the edge of the stone platform, chatting with Chong Xuan Sheng about their respective experiences in obtaining the Horn of the Azure Dragon.

Compared to Jiang Wang's thrilling experience, Chong Xuan Sheng's luck was much better. He and Fourteen were assigned to a Dragon Palace. The two of them joined forces and directly crushed their opponents with their strong abilities. Of course, this was only Chong Xuan Sheng's side of the story, but Jiang Wang felt that, given the cunningness of this fat man, the process might have been even simpler than what he described.

Afterwards, Fourteen stayed in the Dragon Palace to recuperate, while Chong Xuan Sheng came here early with the Horn of the Azure Dragon.

In fact, he was the first person to arrive in front of the Tongtian Tower.

As for the others in the Dragon Palace, they naturally all died. Xu Xiangqian and Li Longchuan were no exception.

This had nothing to do with their personal character.

Because, disregarding many external factors, the various rules in the Tianfu Dragon Palace were actually encouraging killing.

Using a method similar to nurturing gu, selecting the strongest.

While they were talking here, Xu Xiangqian and Li Longchuan politely did not approach, continuing their research and resting.

Chong Xuan Sheng looked at the clouds and mist below the platform and suddenly said, "Brother Jiang, do you know why I insisted on inviting you in and drove away Chong Xuan Xin? After all, he is my distant cousin."

"No need to explain. I don't mind these things."

"But I do mind." Chong Xuan Sheng looked a bit stubborn and continued, "Because he sided with Chong Xuan Zun."

"I know Chong Xuan Zun. He's the one who sent Wang Yiwu to target you, right?""It's not exactly a dispatch. They are good friends." Zhongxuan Sheng emphasized the word 'friends': "Zhongxuan Zun is my cousin, a close relative, not a branch like Zhongxuan Xin. He is the heir to the future head of the Zhongxuan family, and I am his only competitor."

Zhongxuan Sheng smiled: "My chances are slim, so I took the risk to compete for the opportunity in the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm. A future master of divine power within the mansion would have the qualifications to compete with him. But he is arrogant and seeks to eliminate all challengers."

"Right now, I am the only one competing with him in the Zhongxuan family, not because I am the only one qualified, but among the surviving qualified descendants, I am the only one who is not afraid of death. I am the only one who dares to seek this opportunity."

His smile was somewhat bitter.

Jiang Wang nodded: "I see."

"Zhongxuan Zun's advantage is too great. In the past ten years, everyone has regarded him as the next head of the Zhongxuan family, almost unshakeable. If it weren't for him... I wouldn't have had a chance."

Zhongxuan Sheng did not say what specific problem Zhongxuan Zun had that gave him the opportunity.

Instead, he continued: "The reason why I asked you to come all the way to help is because there are not many people around me who are trustworthy. Until I gain a certain position, I dare not trust them. I announced the replacement of Zhongxuan Xin just before entering the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm, so as not to give Zhongxuan Zun time to react. I didn't expect Wang Yiwu to get a spot in such a short time and follow directly."

Zhongxuan Sheng paused, then said word by word: "He wants to kill me."

The two of them sat on the high platform of the summit, with a sea of clouds beneath their feet.

Jiang Wang did not make any promises, nor did he show any passion, he simply said: "Don't worry."

Just that one sentence.

But now Zhongxuan Sheng knew.

A promise from Jiang Wang was enough with just one sentence.

...

The Tongtian Tower reached into the sky, as if it really connected to heaven.

But now the gate was tightly closed.

According to the description on the stone tablet, the gate of the Tongtian Tower would only open when at least five people appeared here, or after twelve hours had passed.

At that time, the person who got the Horn of the Azure Dragon could enter the Tongtian Tower and pursue their own divine power within the mansion.

Since there were five Dragon Palaces, there should be a fifth person who got the chance of divine power.

Everyone present felt that this person would definitely appear before the time was up, and it could only be Wang Yiwu.

Rumors are just rumors, and how strong they actually are can only be known after a fight.

Both Zhongxuan Sheng and Jiang Wang were ready for battle.

...

Time passed bit by bit, and the fifth person did not appear for a long time. The others were fine, but Xu Xiangqian was getting a little anxious.

He had finished studying the stone tablet and began to study the clouds outside the stone platform, and he was in a poetic mood.

"This scene should only exist in heaven, clouds and fog are invisible!"

After reciting the poem, he asked Li Longchuan with a shy face: "How is my poem?"

Li Longchuan seemed to have fallen asleep while resting, and did not respond.

Xu Xiangqian was not discouraged and approached Jiang Wang: "Brother Jiang, you are experienced, what do you think?"

Zhongxuan Sheng was not in the mood to deal with him, and glared at him several times, hoping that he would keep his distance and not disturb his and Jiang Wang's preparation for battle. But Xu Xiangqian was oblivious, his high forehead shining brightly.

Since they had nothing better to do, Jiang Wang pretended to ponder for a while, and praised: "The first half of the sentence is not bad, simple and straightforward, but concise and imposing. It just seems a bit familiar..."

Xu Xiangqian coughed: "Actually, the second half..."

Before he could finish, everyone's gaze shifted to the fifth person who appeared on the stone platform.

The young man looked immature, his expression was restrained, and even a little shy.

It was Zhang Yong from the Fengxian Zhang family!
