There were more than five groups sprinting towards the store, and all of them had a 7th-rank Emperor realm expert leading their respective groups. Such a line up of cultivators would surely cause a major stir even in the Silver Wing Empire.

The top experts of the noble families had long since felt the strong fluctuations within Jiu Shen's store, but none of them dared to intervene. Heck! Those experts were certainly people with huge backgrounds and even the likes of them could only watch the scene with worry.

In the Xue Family's Estate.

An elder stood on top of the highest building in the Xue Family's territory. He was wearing long black robes with the insignia of the Xue Family drawn on its back. The elder appeared to be in deep thought, but later on, he let out a mocking smile while looking at the direction of the ongoing turmoil. This was Elder Ming, the elder of the Xue Family who trained five sword assassins!

"After this event, the whole Silver Wing Empire will surely know the authenticity of the rumors around you, but even if you are lucky enough to survive this disaster, I will still come to you soon and claim your life! When I achieve my break through, that's when this old man will shock the world with a single feat. Kekeke!" Elder Ming's figure turned into a dark smoke and then vanished into thin air.

Inside the throne room of the imperial palace of the Silver Wing Empire.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that we send reinforcements to aid Wine Master Jiu. Although he doesn't need our help, we might gain his favor if we provide assistance to him in these hard times." Defender Duanmu suggested while kneeling in front of the emperor.

Emperor Elyk remained silent for a brief moment before he replied. "It appears that this emperor will have to make a move this time." Flickering in the emperor's eyes was the fierce vigor of a top expert. It has been long since he last showed his strength to the world, so he was feeling rather excited at the thought of fighting with other cultivators at his level.

Defender Duanmu's mouth gaped open when he heard the emperor's words and he could not help but glance at the latter. "Your Majesty..."

The emperor waved his hands, cutting off Defender Duanmu's words midway. "It's about time to show my strength again in order to quell the avaricious hearts of those who want to claim the throne for themselves! Duanmu, prepare my battle armor and my Silver Wing Sword! We will come to aid Wine Master Jiu!" Emperor Elyk stood up from his throne and ordered with raging battle intent.

Defender Duanmu could feel his blood boiling in excitement when he heard the emperor's words. This was the man who once brought fear to the neighboring empires. He was finally back!

Defender Duanmu hurriedly stood up and saluted the emperor with an emotional look. "I obey, Your Majesty!"

Dozens of strong experts came, but they were obviously here to make trouble...

Even so, Jiu Shen's expression remained unchanged. He was besieged by thousands of strong immortals in his past life, but he was still able to escape right under their noses. It was only when Celestial Emperor Lao Gou took matters into his own hands and captured Jiu Shen using the God Sealing Tower. As for the scene happening right now, Jiu Shen couldn't even be bothered to make a move.

'I might as well train my people using these annoying flies.' He muttered to himself.

"Sect Mistress Lu, we've come to aid you in battle!" A ferocious voice echoed about, making everyone turn their heads to look at the one that has spoken. Who could it be other than Hu Xiandao?

Behind him were the two 6th-rank King realm experts that he had brought with him. As for the two youths at the 4th-rank Knight Crusader realm, Hu Xiandao didn't allow them to join the fight. Although he was a brute, he wasn't an idiot who would foolishly send his men to die.

After the arrival of Hu Xiandao's group, the other experts stopped in their tracks while looking at each other warily. All of them were here for the same thing, so they remained cautious.

Lu Sulan, Can Ye, and the three elders from the Undying Corpse Sect who were fighting earlier also decided to pause their battle.

Everyone knew that this was the prelude before a huge fight!

Just then, an average-looking middle-aged man wearing crimson red robes stepped forward and glanced at everyone with an amiable look. His movements didn't escape everyone's sights and they immediately turned their gazes to him, looking at him curiously. "Friends, I know that all of us are here for the Earth Origin Dragon Tree." He said in a nonchalant voice, but his words instantly made all the experts knit their eyebrows.

After seeing that he had gathered everyone's attention, the man smiled and continued. "This one is Shao Fenhua from the Crimson Sun Sect. I have a suggestion and I hope that everybody will consider this proposal." His voice was persuasive and full of confidence as he spoke.

Da Bi glanced warily at the man in crimson red robes and spoke with a questioning look. "This brother, I wonder what thoughts you have in mind."

Da Bi was a peak stage 7th-rank Emperor realm expert, but he could not even discern the cultivation level of the man in crimson red robes.

Shao Fenhua smiled and replied in a cold voice. "We all know that this store has a top expert protecting it, so I hope that everyone can temporarily refrain from stabbing each other's backs and ally ourselves together to barge inside the store."

The crowd of experts murmured, but they all nodded their heads in agreement. They have heard from their respective groups that this unassuming store had a strong expert protecting it, so without further hesitation, they immediately agreed with Shao Fenhua's suggestion.

"I agree, but who will take the Earth Origin Dragon Tree?" Someone asked the question that was bothering everyone. Indeed, with all of them joining forces, who had the right to claim ownership of the Earth Origin Dragon Tree?

Shao Fenhua chuckled and replied. "Of course it will belong to whoever gets it first." He knew that there were four Earth Origin Dragon Tree inside Jiu Shen's store, but he was thinking of taking them all for himself!
