Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 846 - 593: The Return of the King_2
Wei Cang, Luo Xun, and the Tower Supervisor stood by, with the Tower Supervisor taking Ji Yuan's pulse.
"How are your injuries?" At this time, Luo Xun looked at the pale-faced Wei Cang, whose arm had been completely lost from now on.
"It doesn't matter, let's first check on His Majesty," Wei Cang shook his head. He was a martial arts master of the Heaven-human realm, and although he had suffered a heavy blow by losing an arm, it was not enough to kill him.
The white-haired and bearded Tower Supervisor sighed softly upon seeing this. Eight Heaven-human realm experts had descended to the world, throwing the nine provinces into complete chaos.
The opponents had given Da Xia three days, but obviously, the Tower Supervisor did not believe they would actually do nothing in these three days.
"How is His Majesty now?" Wei Cang and Luo Xun asked at this time.
The Tower Supervisor said, "Extremely angered, his emotions fluctuated too greatly, and he has sustained internal injuries. He needs to recuperate quietly for a while."
"As long as His Majesty is fine," Wei Cang and Luo Xun replied, their hanging hearts immediately feeling relieved upon hearing this.
However, the thought of Lang Tian and the others once again plunged the three of them into anxious worry.
"If it really comes down to it, we'll perish together with them!" The towering former Commander of the Jing Tian Department, Wei Cang, said in a deep voice.
"I'm afraid we won't even have the opportunity to perish together," Luo Xun said with a solemn expression.
The Tower Supervisor was silent. Although the nine provinces were recovering, he could not break through to the Heaven-human realm anytime soon, let alone, even if he did break through, what could it possibly do? The three of them together could not possibly stand against Lang Tian and the rest.
After all, those were eight seasoned Heaven-human realm martial arts masters!
"I never thought that one day, Da Xia would be so humiliated and taken by storm without any recourse!" Wei Cang clenched his one remaining arm tightly, his teeth gritted, obviously very unwilling to accept this.
But the current situation was stronger than people, and even someone as powerful as him had no solution.
Upon hearing this, Luo Xun and the Tower Supervisor both fell silent.

"What happened?"
Just then, a clear voice suddenly sounded, startling Wei Cang, Luo Xun, and the Tower Supervisor at once.
"Who's there?!"
They quickly turned around, their faces serious. Knowing that Wei Cang and Luo Xun were martial arts masters of the Heaven-human realm, someone who could approach them without making a sound proved they could silently kill them just as easily.
Such strength was terrifying indeed, and they couldn't help but be cautious!
However, the next moment, when they turned to see the newcomer, their expressions instantly became stunned.
In front of them stood a young man dressed in black robes, with hair like a waterfall, eyes like morning stars, and a handsome, chiseled face.
"Gu Chen?!"
Wei Cang exclaimed in surprise, not expecting Gu Chen to be the one appearing before them at this time. The surprise was immense.
Not just him, Luo Xun and the Tower Supervisor were equally shocked and bewildered.
"Why, do you not recognize me?"
With another statement from Gu Chen, Wei Cang, Luo Xun, and the Tower Supervisor finally came to their senses, with a look of great surprise replacing the ones on their faces!
"Gu Chen, you've returned? That's great!" They looked at Gu Chen in front of them, who had matured compared to two years ago, with deeper eyes and more distinct and handsome features, and a sense of sharpness about him.
"I just knew you wouldn't come to any harm!" The lack of any news for two years had caused Wei Cang and the others immense worry, but now, seeing Gu Chen return safely, the heavy weight in their hearts was lifted as well.
Especially the Tower Supervisor, his aged eyes filled with anticipation as he looked at Gu Chen, among them all, he could be said to be the most confident in Gu Chen.
"When did you come back?" Wei Cang and the others asked.
Gu Chen furrowed his brows and said, "Let's talk about this later. What exactly has happened in Jiuzhou during my absence, and what has become of His Majesty?"
Upon hearing these words, the surprise and excitement on the faces of the three dissipated, replaced by a somber and gloomy expression.
"Let me tell you what has happened in Jiuzhou after you left," Luo Xun said with a light sigh, recounting all the changes that had taken place in Jiuzhou in the two years since Gu Chen's departure.
"So that's how it is!" After listening to Luo Xun's account, Gu Chen's expression turned cold, and a surge of anger welled up inside him.
As anger rose in his heart, Wei Cang, Luo Xun, and even the Tower Supervisor felt an inexplicable tremor in their hearts.
Despite not releasing any aura, the mere change in Gu Chen's expression alone made their hearts quiver.
It should be known that even without considering the Tower Supervisor, Wei Cang and Luo Xun were at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Being Realm in martial arts. The fact that a mere change in expression could affect them so was what truly astonished them.
"We suspect that the tens of millions of those Human Clan citizens have most likely become sacrifices to facilitate the descent of those beings," Luo Xun said, voicing their speculation which was very close to the truth.
"Where is Zhou Yuan now, and what is his current location?" Gu Chen asked emotionlessly.
"Zhou Yuan is very clever, and he has already gone into hiding. However, as those people emerge, I expect he will soon show himself," Luo Xun said.
"As a member of the Jiuzhou Human Clan, yet he serves as an accomplice to tyranny, his crimes should be punished!" Gu Chen's eyes turned icy cold, hating such people most, just like the Six Union God Sect before.
As for Lang Tian and the others, Gu Chen was well aware that these people came specifically for him, and thus there was even less need for discussion.
The only answer was a single word—kill!
At this moment, Gu Chen glanced at Wei Cang's severed arm and said, "Don't worry, Commander Wei, I will avenge you. Of course, if you wish to seek revenge personally by that time, I have no objections."
"You intend to make a move against them?!" Wei Cang and the others were also somewhat surprised upon hearing this, after all, they were dealing with eight Heavenly Beings!
"Correct." Gu Chen's expression remained calm, not a hint of fluctuation in his voice. To destroy spatial coordinates, he had killed more than just eight wrongdoers.
However, this tone of voice was startling to Wei Cang and the others. The way Gu Chen spoke so casually about the Heavenly Beings was as if he were discussing cats and dogs.
It should be noted that in the past, Gu Chen had used all his means to face a single Dugu Yun. Although two years had passed, such statements still seemed astonishing.
These were not mere cabbages; these were Heavenly Beings that had not appeared in Jiuzhou for tens of thousands of years, coming from the Upper Realm with immense strength, with few in the history of Jiuzhou's Heavenly Beings able to match them.
"This..." For a moment, Wei Cang and Luo Xun hesitated, unsure if this course of action might harm Gu Chen.
"Give me three days' time. They definitely won't stay quiet. Release the message later and have them come to Tiandu," Gu Chen stated coldly, his words devoid of emotion.
"To Tiandu?" Hearing this, Wei Cang and Luo Xun became even more hesitant. With eight Heavenly Beings, if they truly made a move in Tiandu, the consequences would be unthinkable.
"Alright!"
But at this moment, the Tower Supervisor nodded and agreed outright, saying, "Leave this matter to me."
"Eastern, you..." Wei Cang and Luo Xun exclaimed in surprise, turning to look at the Tower Supervisor.
"Alright, then." In the end, the two of them nodded, choosing to trust Gu Chen after all. With their current level of cultivation, they were still unable to see through Gu Chen; in some respects, that was reassuring enough.
"Hmm..." At this time, Ji Yuan, who was lying on the bed, let out a low hum as he slowly regained consciousness.
Seeing this, Gu Chen's eyes instantly brightened. After all, he had come here precisely to inquire about the whereabouts of his uncle, Gu Chengfeng, and his family.
