"You say I deserve death!" The guardian of the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's altar had a face as cold as ice, staring at Hou Qinglin and said: "The Heavenly Dragon Emperor is one of the creators of this Trial Ground, and back then, your Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor didn't even know where they were, only emerging later. I guard this teleportation altar for the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, and you dare to say you will kill me!"

"Ridiculous. Does the martial world need to argue about who came first or last? Your Heavenly Dragon Emperor became an emperor very early, but now the Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor have caught up with their terrifying talent. This only proves that your Heavenly Dragon Emperor isn't good enough. As for you, breaking the rules to kill my junior brother, your life is mine!"

Hou Qinglin stepped forward, and in an instant, a faint light extended from his body. A bone-chilling cold enveloped the opponent, as if a piece of ten-thousand-year ice was about to freeze him solid. So cold.

"Hou Qinglin, he really dares to kill!" The crowd's hearts trembled slightly. What kind of figure was Hou Qinglin? His Azure Forest Reincarnation Sword cut through reincarnation itself, renowned far and wide. He had been prophesied to become a Martial Emperor in the future, and some even said that certain Martial Emperors treated Hou Qinglin with great courtesy, seeking to befriend this future Martial Emperor with boundless potential.

The guardian of the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's altar stepped back, his body landing on the altar. In an instant, a brilliant light burst forth. This man actually activated the altar, preparing to teleport himself out of this Trial Ground.

"Trying to leave!"

The crowd watched his movements, seemingly wanting to flee. As the guardian of the altar, he was actually abandoning this place, preparing to escape through the teleportation. This was a huge loss of face, even the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's side would suffer a blow to their dignity. Yet facing Hou Qinglin's assault, he seemed to have no better choice. Was it worth losing face to escape, or fight to the death to guard this place? Clearly, he chose the former, valuing his own life more.

"Hou Qinglin, with the teleportation altar here, you can't kill me. If I leave through the altar, it will only make both sides look bad and create enmity. Why must you do this?" The man's voice seemed to soften a bit. He didn't want to leave through the teleportation altar either.

"When you broke the rules and attacked my junior brother, you never thought about creating enmity. Now you say this? Ridiculous!" Hou Qinglin sneered, continuing to step forward: "I said it, your life is mine!"

The man's pupils stiffened as he stared at Hou Qinglin. He really intended to kill.

The light of the teleportation altar grew increasingly brilliant. Terrifying beams of light swirled and intertwined with the patterns on the altar. In an instant, a powerful void force spread out. The teleportation altar was fully activated. The man was about to leave!

"Leaving?" Hou Qinglin stepped forward. The man's expression hardened as a terrifying aura burst from him. An explosive sound rang out as a mushroom cloud blasted toward Hou Qinglin.

"If I don't kill you, how can I avoid shaming my sect? You must die!" Hou Qinglin's palm slashed through the air, and in an instant, the terrifying mushroom cloud was split in half from the middle. Hou Qinglin stepped forward, his body as fast as lightning.

"Whoosh!" Light blazed brilliantly. Surging void force erupted, and the man's body vanished in an instant.

"Trying to kill me? Dream on!" A rolling roar seemed to come from the void. The crowd's hearts relaxed. It seemed Hou Qinglin still couldn't kill him. Why had he spoken such bold words earlier? With the teleportation formation here, he only had a single moment. How could he possibly kill the man? Now the man had escaped.

"I, Hou Qinglin, never dream!" A calm voice came from Hou Qinglin's mouth. Then the crowd watched as he stepped forward, onto the teleportation altar.

Seeing this, the crowd's hearts twitched violently. Their eyes went wide.

Hou Qinglin, what was he going to do?

This teleportation altar connected to the territory of a Martial Emperor. If Hou Qinglin passed through this teleportation formation, he would be sent to the domain of another Martial Emperor. Hou Qinglin, was he willing to go there, just to kill that man?

Madman. What Hou Qinglin was doing was far too insane.

Even Lin Feng's expression stiffened. He deeply understood the impact of Hou Qinglin's actions. Going to another Martial Emperor's territory to kill their Venerable One would cause a terrible storm.

"Whoosh!"

Void force spread from the altar once more. Hou Qinglin activated the teleportation formation, freezing the crowd's gazes. Hou Qinglin, he was serious!

"Senior Brother, forget it!" Lin Feng called out. Hou Qinglin had already addressed him as junior brother, so Lin Feng could naturally call him senior brother.

"Junior Brother, you just joined the sect. How can you suffer humiliation from others? Besides, he attacked you on our altar. This not only involves you but also the face of our teacher. The disciples of the Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor can be defeated in a fair fight without complaint, but how can we tolerate such bullying!"

Hou Qinglin's expression was calm and indifferent as he spoke slowly, as if he were doing something trivial. Yet it made others' hearts pound with tension. Even the unrelated onlookers grew nervous. Who knew what would happen once Hou Qinglin went there!

Lin Feng felt a surge of respect upon hearing Hou Qinglin's words. This was a senior brother worthy of respect. He clearly cared deeply about the dignity of their two teachers, the Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor.

The powerful void force erupted again. The crowd's eyes were all fixed on the teleportation altar, watching Hou Qinglin's departure. He was gone. Hou Qinglin had really left through the teleportation formation.

"This is huge!" A voice echoed in the crowd's hearts. Hou Qinglin had truly gone too far this time.

The Venerable One guarding the Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor's altar said to Lin Feng: "Junior Brother, go back quickly and inform the senior brother. Tell him about this!"

"Alright!" Lin Feng nodded. Then he and Qiu Yuexin stepped onto the teleportation altar again. Since Hou Qinglin had left through the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's altar, this matter indeed needed to be reported to Mu Chen.

Soon, Lin Feng appeared on the Heavenly Terrace again. There was still no one around. Lin Feng's body flashed quickly, soon reaching the edge of the Heavenly Terrace. The ascetic monk sat cross-legged, still there.

"Senior Monk, Senior Brother Hou went through the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's teleportation altar to the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's territory!" Lin Feng said to the seated ascetic monk. The monk's body instantly stood up, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.

"I understand!" His figure flickered, heading toward those palaces, disappearing in an instant. Clearly, even he was greatly moved by this news, not even waiting to hear the full story from Lin Feng.

"Where is Senior Monk going?" Qiu Yuexin walked to Lin Feng's side and asked.

"He should be going to inform Senior Brother Mu Chen. I think Senior Monk knows what to do!" Lin Feng murmured, watching the disappearing figure of the ascetic monk.

As expected, Lin Feng didn't wait long before Mu Chen's figure drifted over, arriving beside Lin Feng. However, his expression was quite calm, even calmer and more indifferent than the ascetic monk.

"Lin Feng, let's talk as we go!" Mu Chen said to Lin Feng. Lin Feng nodded. Then light flashed, and a force descended upon Lin Feng. Mu Chen carried him as they flickered, heading toward the great hall again. The teleportation altar in the Trial Ground was a one-way teleportation formation. It seemed they would have to go through the Trial Ground again.

"Yuexin, stay here!" Lin Feng transmitted to Qiu Yuexin. Then Mu Chen took Lin Feng and vanished from the spot. Qiu Yuexin watched Mu Chen's retreating figure, her expression shocked. Mu Chen's steps seemed to contain the mysteries of heaven and earth. With each step, he walked through the void, as if teleporting instantly.

"Lin Feng, tell me what happened!" Lin Feng only felt his figure drifting. In a few breaths, they had passed through the great hall and arrived at the Trial Ground. It was so fast that Lin Feng was stunned. Mu Chen's strength was unfathomable!

After his shock, Lin Feng told Mu Chen everything. After hearing it, Mu Chen's expression remained calm, a faint smile on his face. He was very composed, which made Lin Feng's expression stiffen in surprise.

"Without madness, how can one become an emperor? Second Junior Brother is destined to become a Martial Emperor, perhaps with even greater goals. His going to the Heavenly Dragon Emperor's territory is not surprising at all!"

Mu Chen said with a faint smile. By now, the two had arrived at the altar, startling the crowd around it. How long had it been?

"Without madness, how can one become an emperor!" Lin Feng murmured, chewing on Mu Chen's words.
