Chapter 457: If You're Going to Play the Lead, Then Play the Lead! 【10,000 Words!】 (Part 1)
Upon hearing this question, the accountant, with his keen memory, casually pointed, "Over there."
Suddenly, he froze, "Who are you?"
The man hummed, stomped his foot, and with a loud boom, he flew into the sky like a shooting star, chasing after the direction where the Heavenly Palace and the Underworld had departed!
The accountant was startled, scratching his head, "Who is this?"
Everyone was stunned, "..."
One of the servants who often cleaned the important rooms pondered and muttered, "It seems like... it seems like the portrait that the boss hangs in his study..."
"A portrait?"
"The portrait of the boss and the second boss... this person just now, seems like the legendary second boss..."
"The second boss?"
Everyone's hearts trembled.
In the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower, there was only one second boss, and that was Bu Chou.
Thousands of years ago, the boss established the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower for the second boss to have a home when he returned. It was just a small tavern back then, and he spent all his wealth to gradually renovate it over the years.
Before his death, he even left a will: "Future generations, even if you're poor, do not sell the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower."
The Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower was not established for profit. It only aimed to maintain operations, but it must exist forever.
Before his death, he muttered, "I can't let my brother be homeless... I can't let my brother return and not find a home..."
At that time, Bu Chou was fighting in the vast mountains with the Only Righteous Sect. After the battle ended, he heard the news of his brother's critical illness and rushed back without even resting.
However, it was still too late, becoming Bu Chou's lifelong regret.
Later, the boss's descendants gradually bought the surrounding areas, and the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower became larger and larger, but they never wavered from their original intention.
It was all for the second boss, who had left a thousand years ago, to have a place to return to that could still be called 'home'.
Thinking of this, thinking of the portrait that had been hanging in the study for thousands of years...
The accountant suddenly froze, staring with wide eyes as he desperately tried to recall, and finally, he smacked his thigh and exclaimed, "It's the second boss!"
He rushed out of the door.
Everyone cried out in surprise and hurriedly followed the accountant out, "Second boss! Second boss!"
But they saw the vast heavens and earth, and there was no trace of Bu Chou in the mortal world.
...
Ziwei Dadi led his group, flying at full speed, instantly leaving White Cloud Continent and entering the mountains.
Finally, they heaved a sigh of relief.
The speed of the young disciples was indeed too slow.
"Let's stop here for now..."
Before Ziwei Dadi could finish his sentence, he felt the heavens and earth tremble. A mighty aura surged, as if an ancient demon was pushing through the clouds and mist, advancing with overwhelming power.
"Who is this?"
Ziwei Dadi furrowed his brows.
In White Cloud Continent, aside from Xue Fuxiao and Sun Xiaoyang, there was actually another super expert? But this person probably wasn't targeting them...
As they spoke, a figure suddenly appeared, accompanied by a gust of wind, and landed on a large rock on a mountain peak before them.
A loud bang.
The staff slammed into the ground, supporting it.
A small mountain collapsed.
As the mountain collapsed, its height decreased.
The man's body steadily descended with the crumbling mountain.
Rocks shattered and flew thousands of feet away.
The man suddenly raised his head, his fierce gaze fixed on Ziwei Dadi.
His eyes were like swords, sharp and penetrating.
A robust aura rushed towards them.
Ziwei Dadi's brows furrowed, and with a sweep of his sleeve, the dust and flying debris in the air were instantly cleared.
"Bu Chou? What brings you here?"
Ziwei Dadi naturally recognized this super expert, ranked 11th on the Cloud Weapon Rankings!
"What am I here for?"
Bu Chou angrily said, "I thought it was some petty thief causing trouble and refusing to pay, but it turns out it's you, the esteemed Ziwei Dadi, refusing to pay a commoner's debt! This is truly shameful!"
Ziwei Dadi was perplexed, "Bu brother, let's talk this out."
Ziwei Dadi's strength surpassed Bu Chou, so he naturally wasn't concerned about anything, but Bu Chou wasn't one to ignore right and wrong. For him to catch up and display such an attitude, there was clearly a reason.
Bu Chou furiously said, "I'm not here to talk nicely, Ziwei. Are you deliberately bullying me? Eating and drinking at my place without paying? Have you gone mad?"
Ziwei Dadi was baffled, "Eating and drinking at your place? What do you mean by that?"
Bu Chou was enraged!
He shouted, "You brought over two thousand people to eat, drink, and stay at the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower for twenty days, and you only gave ten thousand taels of silver? A jar of wine costs two thousand taels, and you drank nearly ten thousand jars, yet you only gave ten thousand taels? Are you out of your mind? Pay up!"
Bu Chou slammed the Wind and Cloud Staff on the ground, his anger reaching the heavens, "Pay up! If you're short by even one tael of silver today, none of you will leave! You've brought this debt to my doorstep, and I think you've gone mad!"
Billions of taels, yet they only gave ten thousand!
There was actually such a thing!
Ziwei Dadi suddenly blushed furiously, his face burning with embarrassment, so ashamed he couldn't speak.
He suddenly felt utterly humiliated! As a generation's great emperor, being chased down for money was truly shameful, enough to make him hide in his grandmother's house!
"Bu brother, wait, I'll give you an explanation!"
He turned around, his face cold, and with a slap, he struck Taiyang Xingjun's face, "You disgraceful thing, pay up!"
Taiyang Xingjun was slapped so hard that stars appeared before his eyes, and he flew a hundred feet away.
Indeed, it was due to the urgency of the situation, and he had also considered returning to make up for it, but now, saying this was pointless, serving no use.
The fact was, they had refused to pay.
With blood spraying from his mouth, he hurriedly began searching his rings.
Gathering a large stack of silver notes, he handed them over without a single extra note, not daring to be the slightest bit deceitful.
Seeing that even the Ziwei Dadi was fuming, he knew that saying another word would be pointless. Even without taking a step, the Dadi could easily deal with him.
Feng Chu stood there with a cold expression, "Not enough! What about my errand fee? Do you think I ran all the way here for nothing?"
Ziwei Dadi personally took out his ring and sent over a pile of Heavenly Materials and a bunch of Supreme Spirit Crystals.
Feng Chu, feeling embarrassed, said, "Brother Chu, I really owe you for this. It was my negligence... Please accept this as a token of my sincerity, and I hope you won't reject it."
The once-great Dadi now felt so embarrassed that he couldn't even look Feng Chu in the eye.
Feng Chu took the took the items and shook his head, his voice cold, "Ziwei, I'm truly ashamed for you! Is this how poor the Heavenly Palace has become?"
With that, he sheathed his Wind and Cloud Staff and soared into the sky.
Ziwei Dadi's body trembled, and his face turned ashen.
Feng Chu's last words felt like ten slaps to the face, and it made him feel even worse.
Even when he was talking about Sun Xiaoyang's capture behind his back, he didn't feel as miserable as he did at this moment.
He grabbed Taiyang Xingjun by the collar and lifted him up, saying each word with emphasis, "Is this how poor the Heavenly Palace has become? You're still relying on these silver notes to survive even now?!"
Taiyang Xingjun's face turned as pale as dirt. His eyes struggled to speak, but no words came out.
He was speechless, unable to defend himself.
The facts were undeniable, and Feng Chu had come to settle the score, leaving him with irrefutable evidence.
He wasn't usually a stingy person, but after so many years in the jianghu, this was always how he did things. After finishing his meal, he would slap the table and leave without a word.
This had been going on for years.
With his speed, no one could catch up to him anyway. Moreover, most of the time, he would leave extra money.
This time, he had already paid five million in advance, and he had no concept of the market price—how could any Iron Blood Terrace compare to the Heavenly Palace's Spirit Wine? Secondly, he was in a hurry, and Ziwei Dadi had dragged him along. In the rush, Ziwei Dadi had thrown a silver note from his pocket...
He hadn't even had a chance to check the amount on the note before he was already a thousand miles away.
Who would have thought that a master from the Cloud Rankings would come to collect payment? His face still stung from the previous slap, and his head was buzzing.
He couldn't find the words to speak.
Taiyin Xingjun pleaded on the side, "Dadi, please calm down. Taiyang was just a little careless, it's not something we can use right now, it's just a momentary."
Ziwei Dadi, my good boy. Now, this is just a little more."
This reason, Dadi's seed will grow strong."
Feng Chu was a man of his word.
He had said he would be the main character today, and he would be the main character.
Ziwei Dadi! Stop, I don't want to kill you! Don't bring this upon yourself!"
The shadows of the Bone Shattering Dream Gun multiplied, forming mountains of white bones, suppressing Ziwei Dadi's sword light into a small cluster.
Although he was the third most powerful figure in the Heavenly Palace and an unparalleled expert of his generation, the strength of the absolute peak varied from person to person.
Ziwei Dadi struggled to retaliate, but under Sun Xiaoyang's Bone Shattering Dream Gun, his situation became increasingly dire. Moreover, it was evident that Sun Xiaoyang was not exerting his full strength and still had reserves left.
"Sun Xiaoyang! What do you want?"
Ziwei Dadi's dignified face turned red with frustration.
"Today, I'm here to kill and vent this anger. If you dare to block me, I'll kill you too!"
A long whistle sounded.
Sun Xiaoyang thrust his gun continuously.
A loud clash reverberated as the sword and gun clashed fiercely. The sword light instantly scattered.
Ziwei Dadi grunted and retreated, a flash of blood appearing on his shoulder.
Sun Xiaoyang did not pursue his advantage but instead, his body floated, and he disappeared from his original spot, directly charging into the crowd.
Taiyin Xingjun Qin Guang Wang and the leaders of various sects, including the elders of Yin Water Palace and White Cloud Palace, let out a long whistle, unleashing their full power simultaneously.
Facing them was Sun Xiaoyang!
A life-and-death moment!
Sun Xiaoyang's face remained calm, and his gaze was serene. With a sweep of his Bone Shattering Dream Gun, the gun shadows surged like waves.
All their attacks were swept aside by his gun, and their bodies staggered backward.
In front of Sun Xiaoyang, the encirclement had turned into a solitary figure.
The Netherworld's Chu Jiang Wang!
With three consecutive strikes of his gun, the first shot countered Chu Jiang Wang's One-Legged Copper Man, the second shot sent the One-Legged Copper Man flying into the sky, and the third shot exploded Chu Jiang Wang's head.
The gun moved like a dragon.
Sun Xiaoyang continued his pursuit, slaughtering through the crowd.
Taiyin Xingjun retreated at full speed.
However, Sun Xiaoyang suddenly withdrew his gun, and with a 'pu' sound, two elders of Purple Robe Palace were impaled by Sun Xiaoyang, their bodies lifted halfway into the air.
Sun Xiaoyang's body emerged gracefully.
But an elder from Netherworld Palace, clutching his throat with a gurgling sound, fell into despair.
In the middle of his throat, a penetrating blood hole appeared.
Sun Xiaoyang raised his gun, turned, and with a horizontal sweep in midair, he pushed Ziwei Dadi back thirty zhang away. He extended his hand and grabbed at the air, forming a fist.
From a distance of twenty zhang away, an elder's head from Azure Shadow Palace exploded with a loud 'peng' sound.
Amidst the crowd's horrified gazes, Sun Xiaoyang gracefully turned around, and with a flash of white light, he had already reached the peak of a hundred zhang away.
Pointing his Bone Shattering Dream Gun, Sun Xiaoyang spoke indifferently, "This time, it's a small punishment for a big warning. If something like this happens again, hehe..."
Sun Xiaoyang raised his gun.
His face was expressionless, and his eyes were cold and ruthless. "This gun is named Bone Shattering, specializing in shattering mortal dreams!"
He turned and strode away.
Three 'peng' sounds echoed.
Chu Jiang Wang's One-Legged Copper Man and the corpses of the two Purple Robe Palace elders fell to the ground.
Ziwei Dadi's heart ached as he wept, "Sun Xiaoyang, I won't let you off. You will regret this, you definitely will!"
A disdainful smile appeared on Sun Xiaoyang's lips.
Without turning his head back, his slender body flashed in the air, and his figure disappeared.
A faint voice came from the horizon, "Xue Fuxiao, was this play satisfying?"
At this moment, the corpses of Taiyang Xingjun, Chu Jiang Wang, and the elders of Azure Shadow Palace, Netherworld Palace, and Purple Robe Palace, a total of six deceased leaders, simultaneously exploded in their dantian.
This was the residual gun Qi, which shattered their souls and destroyed their true spirits! Ever since that incident six hundred years ago, Sun Xiaoyang's attacks had always been so ruthless!
Not only did he destroy their physical bodies, but he also eliminated their souls!
The Golden Horned Dragon silently hovered in the sky, devouring soul particles without a sound.
From a hidden spot in the distance, Fang Che watched the direction of Sun Xiaoyang's departure, his mouth agape.
One person with a gun, coming and going, the entire encounter lasted no more than ten breaths.
A top-three Star Lord of the Heavenly Palace, a ruler of the Netherworld, one elder each from Azure Shadow Palace and Netherworld Palace, and two elders from Purple Robe Palace—all perished in this encounter.
Moreover, he accomplished all this while still engaged in combat with Ziwei Dadi!
The Bone Shattering Dream Gun, taking lives with every thrust, reached the pinnacle of nonchalance.
He truly achieved the feat of capturing a general's head amidst a million soldiers as easily as taking something out of a bag!
"Too powerful!"
Fang Che sighed softly, and Sun Xiaoyang's graceful and effortless movements made his blood boil with excitement.
"This is your future opponent."
Xue Fuxiao spoke softly.
Fang Che smiled bitterly, "Xue, you're giving me too much credit."
Xue Fuxiao smiled but said nothing.
Outside, Ziwei Dadi's face was gloomy as he surveyed the corpses on the ground. On his shoulder, a transparent gun hole was gradually healing.
He looked up and said, "Xue, was the show satisfying?"
From the mountain forest, Xue Fuxiao's faint voice echoed, "Ziwei, were you not satisfied with the fight earlier? What does our battle with Sun Xiaoyang have to do with you? If you're angry, vent it on me. Do you want me to put on a show for Sun Xiaoyang as well? Let him see how satisfying it is?"
Ziwei Dadi's anger had indeed clouded his judgment.
But Xue Fuxiao's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over him.
"Xue is just joking," Ziwei Dadi said with a heavy heart. "It's just a pity..."
He stopped mid-sentence, sighed, and said, "If Xue has no further instructions, I'll take my leave."
Xue Fuxiao did not appear but said, "Farewell."
And then, he vanished without a trace.
Ziwei Dadi led his people away, their hearts heavy with sorrow. Someone glared at Bei Zhen in the ranks, grinding their teeth.
Sun Xiaoyang had killed one from the Heavenly Palace, one from the Netherworld, one from Netherworld Palace, and one from Azure Shadow Palace; why did he specifically kill two from Purple Robe Palace?
Everyone knew the reason.
It was because of what Bei Zhen had said when Fang Che registered.
After squeezing Fang Che, it was even more of a squeeze for Sun Xiaoyang.
But who knew it wasn't over yet?
Sun Xiaoyang actually held a grudge like this.
In the end, it was still because of that one sentence that two elders of the Purple Robe Palace lost their lives!
This was a huge loss for the Purple Robe Palace. And now, Bei Zhen had to take the blame!
Even if he couldn't bear it, he had to!
Looking at Bei Zhen, Elder Lu Zheng's gaze was as if he wanted to devour him.
Cold sweat constantly dripped from his forehead.
His heart was filled with endless fear, and his heart was still in his throat, and he was infinitely grateful: "Fortunately, I was already disciplined by Sun Xiaoyang in the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower. Otherwise, today... the one lying on the ground would be me!
