Chapter 676 The Luo Family's Power Has Faded
Luo Chengwen never dreamed that he, who was among the top ten in strength in Anchang Kingdom, would actually lose to a mere Earth Realm expert.
But the next moment, he panicked, and saw Chu Chen wave his hand, and a dagger appeared in his hand.
Then, without hesitation, he plunged the knife into his chest.
"Cough... Guh... Guh... You're not human, you're... a devil!"
Those watching from the sidelines saw Luo Chengwen rush towards Chu Chen, and then, as if he had been cast a spell, he seemed to be possessed.
His body immediately went limp.
Then they saw Chu Chen's large cloak cover the two of them.
But when Chu Chen stood up again, everyone was surprised to find...
A pool of blood flowed on the arena, and the head of the Luo family, one of the four great families, lay lifeless in the blood.
At this moment, Li Fugui shuddered, thinking to himself that it was fortunate that he had brought this person to his side, otherwise, he would probably be the one who died.
With tears in his eyes, Ding Yun thought to himself, "Finally, I've killed the head of the Luo family."
Then his greatest enemy might be completely destroyed soon. At that time, he must personally kill the man who stole his wife.
Even the one in the imperial faction couldn't help but stand up upon seeing this scene!
Because the aura emanating from Chu Chen was that of a Earth Realm expert. Although this Earth Realm aura was slightly stronger than that of an ordinary person, he was still an Earth Realm expert after all!
Luo Chengwen was indeed a powerful expert who had long since reached the Heavenly Realm!
As a result, he was killed by a mere Earth Realm cultivator, something that had never happened before in Anchang Kingdom!
After killing Luo Chengwen, Chu Chen stood up and coldly looked at the crowd below!
Then, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the Luo family's formation: "Who else..."
Hearing Chu Chen's provocative tone, the Luo family members immediately shrank back!
You've already killed the patriarch, who the hell would dare to challenge you now!
After waiting for a while, the host saw that no one from the Luo family dared to step forward.
Then he loudly announced, "In this battle, Tongluo County has won."
Du Yueshen could hardly believe her eyes.
In the past, it would have been unthinkable for a county government to be superior to the four major families.
But this was something that actually happened to him.
"Hahaha, Senior Chu, you've worked hard. This time, Tongluo County has finally been able to hold its head high."
As soon as Chu Chen returned to the formation of the Tongluo County team, Du Yueshen came over and said loudly.
Li Fugui appeared in front of Chu Chen at some point.
"Brother Chu, I never imagined that killing a Heaven Realm expert would be so easy for you. I admire you."
Chu Chen laughed after hearing this: "It's just a coincidence."
"Hehe, this is no coincidence. It seems that the Tang and Wang families are probably going to rig the lottery now."
"Tamper with it?" Chu Chen asked, somewhat puzzled.
Seeing Chu Chen's expression, Li Fugui smiled slightly and whispered in Chu Chen's ear, "Brother Chu, neither of those two families wants to face you, so it's a sure thing that you'll be in the top five in this competition in Tongluo County."
Chu Chen thought to himself, "There's such a thing?"
It seems that no family will use its top power to clash with itself.
Therefore, they would rather let Tongluo County enter the top five than send their family's top experts to fight against them again.
Even if they were to draw the card, they would probably just symbolically send out cannon fodder from their own clan to show their attitude, and then lose the match.
Thinking about this, Chu Chen suddenly found this so-called grand competition somewhat laughable.
It was certain that the four major families would enter the top four, so they simply controlled the majority of the resources.
The county governments were also divided into two tiers.
The first tier consists of those who are attached to the four major families, while the second tier consists of places like Tongluo County, which have no powerful backers.
Immediately afterwards, a county government came into contact with the Li family.
Chu Chen couldn't be bothered to watch the competition, so he fell fast asleep in his seat again.
After a day of competition, Chu Chen was escorted back to his residence by Du Yueshen as if he were his own father.
As soon as I entered, I saw a man who looked like a eunuch standing in front of me, waiting.
Chu Chen took a closer look and thought to himself, "A eunuch from the Heavenly Realm, it seems he holds a high position in the palace."
“Young Master Chu, please wait. I am Zhao Bei, the chief steward of the palace. I am here on His Majesty’s orders to invite you to the palace.”
Eunuch? Zhao Bei... Damn, what a great name.
Instantly, Chu Chen felt a deep respect for the eunuch before him.
"This humble citizen, Chu Chen, greets Eunuch Zhao!"
"What is the purpose of Your Majesty's summons?"
Chu Chen had actually guessed something in his heart: his ability to kill a Heaven Realm expert with only Earth Realm cultivation had already attracted the attention of this God Realm expert.
Now, if I'm allowed into the palace, it's either to recruit me or to kill me.
But Chu Chen preferred the first one.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Bei immediately replied, "Young Master Chu, you will naturally know when we arrive at the palace."
"You old bastard, why are you keeping me in suspense?" Seeing this, Chu Chen reached into the pocket behind his back.
But the next moment, he dismissed the idea.
He thought to himself that sending money to Anchang Kingdom was not going to work.
Since that's the case, then let's just not send him off. Let him go if he wants, who's afraid of who?
Recruiting me is fine, but if you want to kill me, then you'll have to use a tank.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen turned to Du Yueshen and Ding Yun and said, "Since His Majesty has summoned you, you don't need to wait for me for dinner. Also, go and tell Li Haoran that they don't need to wait for me."
After saying that, he followed Zhao Bei and strode outside.
Du Yueshen knew exactly what Chu Chen meant. As soon as Chu Chen left, he turned and headed towards the Li family's location.
Inside the carriage, Chu Chen and Zhao Bei sat facing each other.
Neither of them spoke, while Zhao Bei occasionally glanced at Chu Chen, wondering to himself how this kid's Earth Realm aura had disappeared.
Soon after, led by Zhao Bei, Chu Chen arrived at the enormous palace in the very center of the city.
"Young Master Chu, His Majesty is waiting for you in the Imperial Study. This way, please."
"Please, Eunuch Zhao!"
After entering the palace, the two walked through countless alleys, and after walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they finally arrived at an ancient building.
Chu Chen was marveling at the sheer size of this imperial city.
Suddenly, a hearty laugh rang out.
"Hahaha, Young Master Chu, you're quite impressive to kill a Heaven Realm cultivator while only at the Earth Realm level."
"Judging from your appearance, you should be close to the Heavenly Realm. When that time comes, will you be able to kill a God Realm cultivator while still in the Heavenly Realm?"
Chu Chen turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.
He saw a man wearing a golden crown looking at him with a smile inside a room with its door open.
