Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes is Actually Wentianlou?



Stepping out of the courtyard gate, there is a row of scenic lakes. At the end of the lakes stands an ancient courtyard gate, beyond which is the entrance to the inn.

As a guesthouse, Yuelai Guesthouse has an unusually low number of visitors; you might not see a single person all day.

There were more staff than guests at the inn, so it must have been operating at a loss. But those who could enter and leave the Yuelai Inn were all people of great power and influence, and were either rich or noble.

When Chen Tai'a and Fang Sheng arrived, Zhao Quan and Zhao Liujia had been waiting for a long time, clearly keeping them waiting, but they dared not show the slightest impatience.

Even after Chen Tai'a appeared, Zhao Quan's face clearly showed a look of fear.

He looked at the newcomer, and his usually calm eyes were suddenly filled with intense emotion, his aged hands trembling involuntarily.

It was as if at this moment, all the spiritual energy of this world was drawn to it, and upon its appearance, it seemed to be the ruler of the world.

The overwhelming sense of oppression was palpable; had it not been for the other party's deliberate control, Zhao Quan would probably have fled in a sorry state by now.

Even so, the pressure on the two of them was still enormous.

"Great-grandfather..."

Zhao Liujia could hardly take it anymore. The last bit of air in his abdomen was forcibly squeezed out. At this moment, his face was flushed and the veins on his forehead were throbbing.

"This junior, Zhao Quan, is the chief elder of the Cangyu Holy Land in the Desolate Sky Domain. I pay my respects to Lord Chen."

Zhao Quan bowed for the first time, speaking respectfully.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

As Chen Tai'a's hearty laughter rang out, the oppressive aura of this world vanished without a trace.

"I remember the last time I came to the Desolate Heaven Domain, you were just a child. Now you've grown so much, no, you've grown so old. Time flies, life really doesn't go by."

Zhao Liujia felt as if he had escaped death, and he quickly took several deep breaths before he could recover.

At this moment, he finally understood the fear in his great-grandfather's eyes. Such power could probably take their lives with just a single thought, leaving them with no thought of resistance.

He awkwardly took a half step back.

"Your Excellency is still the same as always." Zhao Quan merely echoed this dryly, then glanced cautiously at Chen Tai'a and said softly, "I have come here today mainly to ask Your Excellency about something."

"explain."

Chen Tai'a readily agreed.

"I don't know how my Cangyu Holy Land has offended you, so much so that you have to use such ruthless methods. I hope you will give me your instructions. I will immediately go back and make corrections. I only hope that you will be magnanimous and forgive the Cangyu Holy Land this time. In the future, I will certainly receive plenty of tribute."

His words were quite polite, and Zhao Quan adopted a very humble attitude. Of course, he also knew that if he didn't soften his tone, then if Chen Tai'a got angry, he and his grandfather would be doomed.

“You have not offended me in any way.”

Chen Tai'a had already guessed that Zhao Quan would say this, and said calmly.

“Then, sir…” Zhao Quan was taken aback.

He thought of all sorts of ways to deal with it, and even came up with the nice things to say when Chen Tai'a turned hostile, but he never expected that Chen Tai'a would deny it.

With the arrogance of a Saint King, he would never deny what he had done.

"This is..."

"Since it wasn't done by you, sir, please show me the way."

Zhao Quan's expression had already turned somewhat grim, but at this moment he had no choice but to bow down and speak softly.

"Wentian Tower".

Chen Tai'a had no intention of wasting any more time, so he turned and left. "That's all I have to say. If you come to me to demand an explanation before you've even figured things out, then the Cangyu Holy Land will be in trouble, even if it's not."

The sound drifted from afar, making Zhao Quan's face appear even paler.

"Jiazi, what did Lord Chen say..."

Zhao Quan stared at Zhao Liujia, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Zhao Liujia whispered, "Lord Chen said that those things were all done by Wentianlou."

At this point, his expression finally changed. "Does the Wentian Tower really have such great abilities? Could it be... that those words weren't just a joke!"

He gasped sharply, his mind reeling, a chill running down his spine.

If these things were indeed done by Wentianlou, then it means that Wentianlou really has such strength, and the joke they made earlier about destroying Cangyu Holy Land at noon was probably true.

"No...no good."

After saying "Oh no!" twice, Zhao Quan staggered outside, "Quick, go back quickly and tell my older brother... please be careful..."

If it wasn't Chen Tai'a who did it, then the matter is serious.

It should be noted that at this moment, almost everyone in the Cangyu Holy Land believes that Chen Tai'a is the mastermind behind all these events, and that their trip is to settle things.

Then the Cangyu Holy Land will lower its guard, and if the Wentian Tower takes advantage of this opportunity to invade.

After Wentianlou demonstrated its overwhelming power, Cangyu Holy Land is in danger.

"Oh, don't worry about me, go quickly, the safety of the Azure Feather Holy Land is in your hands."

Seeing that Zhao Liujia was supporting him and that he was moving slowly, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Zhao Liujia let go of Zhao Quan's hand and looked at him with concern, "Can you go back alone?"

“I am a Saint-level expert, after all. Who am I afraid of? Besides, if Lord Chen had any intention of killing me, he would have made his move earlier. Why wait until now?” Zhao Quan said.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Liujia nodded solemnly.

At this moment, he realized the seriousness of the situation, and his figure vanished in a streak of light.
