Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start
Chapter 1338 - 271 Qingyun Palace

Chapter 1338: Chapter 271 Qingyun Palace

Gargantuan Summit City’s platform was surrounded by a sea of people, some of whom were cultivators from the upper realms, but many more were the native inhabitants of this world. In addition, there were several figures of "Great Powers" level from the Heavenly realm among them.

At this moment, everyone was rendered speechless and stupefied, unable to imagine that a Unity realm cultivator could actually slay two Heavenly realm Great Powers!

This truly upended what they had always believed to be true!

A short while later, the crowd came to their senses and erupted into a frenzy, their discussions reaching the nine skies!

"Who is this person, and how was he able to accomplish this?"

"An Earth realm killing a Heavenly realm, it’s against the natural order!"

"Am I seeing things? Is all of this real?"

The cultivators from the upper realms did not need to discuss this amongst themselves, as they were all aware of Gu Chen’s extraordinary abilities, having witnessed his killing of Jin Xuan from the Golden Roc Clan.

However, the natives of the Holy realm, this core territory, were different. They did not understand Gu Chen, so seeing this scene before them, they were extremely shocked.

Beneath the platform, seven cultivators kept a fixed gaze on Gu Chen, having felt a fleeting familiar aura emanate from him earlier.

"The elders of Sword Monarch Palace have died, and given their temperament, they will certainly not let this matter rest!" At this time, a native spoke up.

Though Sword Monarch Palace was neither an imperial nor a royal clan, without such transcendence, it remained mighty within the core territory of the Holy realm, not to be underestimated.

Now, with the death of an elder, a great storm was inevitable in Gargantuan Summit City!

Long Yi frowned and sighed inwardly, never expecting to ultimately stand in opposition to the natives.

However, he also understood that this was not Gu Chen’s fault but was due to Jian Jiu and the middle-aged man who had brought it upon themselves.

Gu Chen stood on the platform, ignoring the discussions and voices from below, and instead checked his interface briefly.

Jian Jiu was a descendant of the Nine-Leaved Sword Vine Clan from the previous great era who had reached the Heavenly realm. As a being from another race, after Gu Chen had killed him, he had received even more points than for killing Jin Xuan from the Golden Roc Clan.

Afterward, he walked down from the platform. The crowd below, including the natives, automatically parted to create a path for him.

However, just at that moment, seven figures approached and blocked Gu Chen’s way.

"Hm?"

Seeing this, Gu Chen’s eyebrows rose slightly as he thought to himself whether people from Sword Monarch Palace had arrived so quickly.

As for Long Yi and Gu Qingyan, when they saw these seven individuals appear, they immediately tensed up, fearing that something else might happen.

At this time, one of the Great Powers among the seven stepped forward with a smile and said, "Do not misunderstand, we have no ill intentions."

"They are... from Qingyun Palace?" At this moment, a native murmured lowly, revealing the origins of the seven individuals.

Gu Chen’s hearing was exceedingly sharp, and he caught on immediately. Moreover, he truly didn’t sense any killing intent or other unusual emotions from the seven.

Then, the Heavenly realm Great Power that had spoken bowed slightly with his hands clasped and said, "My name is Ren Fei. We come from Qingyun Palace, seeking out Brother Gu not to quarrel, but there are some matters we wish to inquire about."

"Qingyun Palace?" Upon hearing this, Gu Chen’s heart stirred.

"Big brother."

At this time, Long Yi arrived with Gu Qingyan and the others, their gazes wary as they looked toward Ren Fei and his group.

"Alright." After a silent moment, Gu Chen nodded, agreeing to Ren Fei’s proposition.

They then left the area, found a tavern in Gargantuan Summit City, and booked a private room.

It was clear that the tavern keeper also recognized Ren Fei and his company, treating them with great respect, and did not refuse service despite Gu Chen’s killing of Sword Monarch Palace’s elder, fearing to offend such a power.

"How may I address the young friend?" Once everyone was seated, Ren Fei asked with a smile.

Then, Gu Chen spoke up, giving his and his companions’ names.

"So, it’s Brother Gu." Ren Fei nodded, not putting on airs because he was a Heavenly realm Great Power, instead choosing to interact with Gu Chen as an equal.

"This gentleman must be from the Gemini Clan of the last great era?" Ren Fei turned his attention to Long Yi.

"That’s correct." Long Yi responded with a slight nod, also a bit puzzled.

Ren Fei smiled lightly and said, "No offense, but we too are from the last great era."

"What?!" As these words were spoken, Long Yi was immediately shocked, staring at Ren Fei and his companions.

In an instant, upon hearing this, Gu Chen also speculated.

Sure enough, in the next moment, Ren Fei spoke truthfully, "Without pretense, we are from Azure Cloud Sky of the last great era. Surely Brother Long Yi must know of it, right?"

"Azure Cloud Sky?!" Upon hearing these three words, Gu Qingyan and the others turned their gaze to Gu Chen.

Ren Fei as well looked toward Gu Chen and said, "Just now, when Brother Gu made a move, we perceived strands of familiar aura on you. This led us to believe that you might have some connection with our Azure Cloud Sky."

Gu Chen nodded slightly upon hearing this and proceeded to describe the situation of Qingyun Academy to Ren Fei and those present.

"Indeed, the legacy of our Azure Cloud Sky has not perished in the outside world!" At this moment, Ren Fei and the others were overwhelmed with emotion.

They did not harbour much doubt about Gu Chen’s words but chose to believe them.

For from Gu Chen’s account, they heard many secrets of Azure Cloud Sky from the previous great era.

"After the Heavenly Sovereign perished, we thought Azure Cloud Sky would completely collapse with no legacy left behind..." Ren Fei and his companions were almost uncontrollably animated, taking quite a long time before their emotions finally calmed down.
