"Master!"

Luo Chen and Qin Xue'er shouted in unison.

"Yes, you're back!"

The Emperor of Slaughter's gaze swept over Luo Chen, a satisfied smile appearing on his face. He continued, "Chen'er, the matter I need to tell you is this: fifty years ago, a change occurred in the Wuji Dao Sect of the Tianyuan Immortal Realm. The Yan Emperor betrayed the Wuji Dao Sect. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with us, but when the Yan Emperor fled, he killed his eldest disciple, Jing Xian. You've met him before. His true identity is that of an informant left by your second senior sister in the Blazing Fire Sect. The Yan Emperor's sudden escape is also very suspicious, so you and Xue'er need to go and investigate. Be careful, because the Yan Emperor's secrets are being concealed by a mysterious force."

"Yes, Master!"

Luo Chen gave a serious reply.

"There are currently two leads: the Cangyun Secret Realm and the Dragon Domain Secret Realm in the Tianyuan Immortal Realm, which are located in the far south and far north respectively. Therefore, the two of you need to split up and find Emperor Yantian as soon as possible."

The Emperor who killed the Heavenly Emperor stroked his beard and spoke leisurely.

"Yes, Master!"

"Let's set off as soon as possible."

Emperor Shitian raised his hand and pointed, and two cracks appeared, allowing Luo Chen and Qin Xue'er to enter two separate voids.

"I never imagined your plans were so extensive."

The Emperor of Slaughter gazed intently at the distant sky...

at the same time.

"This is Fallen Dragon City, not far from the Dragon Domain Secret Realm. Just like in the original story, a giant dragon carved from high-grade spirit stones encircles the city wall."

Looking at the dragon head on the city gate, Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh. He raised his hand and waved, and a black robe was draped over his body. The robe and hood covered half of his face, making it impossible to see his whole appearance. Then he strolled into the city.

The streets were lined with a dazzling array of stalls, and the sounds of vendors calling out their wares created a lively and bustling atmosphere.

As he passed through the bustling crowd, the hem of his black robe brushed the ground, stirring up a barely perceptible breeze. Sunlight shone on Luo Chen's half-hidden face, adding to his aloofness. His sharp gaze swept around from time to time, scrutinizing every subtle suspicious detail.

"If you want to get some shady information, then the tavern is number one."

Luo Chen muttered something under his breath, looked around, and settled on a tavern with a two-story building. He sat down in a corner on the first floor, ordered a pot of wine, and slowly drank a cup.

Half an incense stick's time has passed.

Suddenly, an old woman with a wrinkled face entered. Luo Chen glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, his brows furrowing: "I think this is what Granny Zhang looks like in the original story. Let's follow her and see what happens."

He then quietly followed the old woman up to the second floor.

The old woman stopped at the door of a private room on the second floor and looked around. Luo Chen naturally sat down at a table.

"Brother, you... um~"

Thumbs up!

As soon as the man in blue sitting opposite him opened his mouth, Luo Chen poured the wine jar in his hand directly into his mouth.

Squeak!

The old woman pushed open the door and entered the room.

"Brother, I'll treat you to a jar of drinks, but you pay the bill yourself."

Without waiting for the man's reply, Luo Chen got up and left.

The man in blue pointed to the wine jar, then to himself...?

Luo Chen arrived at the door of the private room. The system concealed his presence, so as long as he did not actively reveal himself, even his master would not be able to detect his existence.

He eavesdropped and heard the voices of a man and a woman coming from inside the room.

Is everything ready?

The man said.

"My lord, everything is ready and we can start at any time."

The woman answered.

"The voice of the Flame Emperor!"

Luo Chen was startled and muttered something under his breath.

"who!"

The man shouted angrily.

"broken!"

Luo Chen vanished into the void...
