C525 Regret it's too late
He was able to break through the Ice Mirror Killing Array, but that black sword light had consumed 30% of his spiritual energy to achieve that level of power!
As for how much spirit energy Zhou Leng had to spend to execute the Ice Mirror Killing Array, Chen Xiao did not know. It would definitely not consume more energy than Chen Xiao. Furthermore, even if they were roughly the same, given Zhou Leng's current realm, his recovery speed was far beyond what Chen Xiao could compare to.
Seeing that Chen Xiao had already escaped far away, Zhou Leng finally reacted from his shock and gave up on the idea of chasing after him.
The strength Chen Xiao had displayed forced him to carefully consider how to deal with him. The best thing would be to first ask Lord Ling Xiao for his thoughts. After all, the Extermination Sect cannot have disputes with other hidden forces right now …
Seeing Chen Xiao running away from Zhou Leng, all the surrounding people who had witnessed the entire process, were all completely stunned: Zhou Leng, a dignified seven star Martial Saint, was actually unable to do anything to a Six Star Martial Saint. If they had not personally witnessed this kind of thing, they would not even dare to dream about it!
However, amongst the many people who were shocked, there were three elders who recognized Chen Xiao who were the most shocked!
These three people were none other than Elder Li, Elder Wang, and Elder Qian.
"This... "That's impossible!" Elder Qian's eyes widened in disbelief. He simply could not accept that Chen Xiao could actually escape from Zhou Leng's hands.
However, as this fact was accepted by him, he couldn't help but feel a burst of fear in his heart.
Elder Qian remembered that Chen Xiao had told him earlier in the day that he would settle the score with him! With Chen Xiao's current strength, even Zhou Leng could not do anything to him. After a period of time, wouldn't Chen Xiao become even stronger? At that time, his revenge …
Elder Qian felt an immense pressure.
However, compared to Elder Qian's shock, Elder Li was even more shocked. When he had first met Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao was indeed a one star Martial Saint. It had only been a few days, and he had already reached Six Star Martial Saint.
Suddenly, Elder Li thought about the matter of Chen Xiao finding him to capture the low grade divine stone before the auction.
At that time, Elder Li had not explained that Chen Xiao already had a middle grade divine stone, why would he still want one. Now it seemed that, in all likelihood, Chen Xiao had already refined and absorbed the middle grade divine stone, which was why he wanted to continue absorbing the low grade divine stone!
But as Elder Li understood all of this, his evaluation of Chen Xiao turned from a genius to a monster.
Elder Li was clear on how much energy a piece of middle grade divine stone contained, but Chen Xiao actually absorbed it all in such a short period of time. This rate of absorption could only be described as monstrous.
Of course, after understanding all of this, Elder Li felt that his actions of enticing Chen Xiao into his side was rather correct. With such a monster like existence, in the future, the strength of their Auction Guild would definitely increase by a lot!
Elder Li could not help but look forward to how strong Chen Xiao would be when he arrives at the headquarters in two months' time.
As for now, Elder Li looked at Elder Qian and smiled.
"Heh …" It was already laid out in front of him. What was there to say that was impossible? Elder Qian, I hope you won't forget what you said today. "
Based on Elder Qian's actions during the day, Elder Li would no longer treat him nicely. The strength that Chen Xiao had displayed was already terrifying enough to scare Elder Qian.
It had to be said that Elder Li felt very good about this.
"Humph!" So what if he escaped from Zhou Leng's hands? Isn't it just a Martial Saint? Even after offending the Extermination Sect, I do not believe that he will be able to survive. I estimate that it won't be long before some Xiao Chen directly disappeared from the three realms. " Elder Qian said stubbornly.
"Hur hur." Elder Li laughed coldly, "Elder Qian's words are very true. I just don't know if little friend Xiao Chen can still say those words in front of him when you reach the guild headquarters in two months' time. "
"You …" Elder Li's words made Elder Qian angry, but he did not dare to say it in front of Chen Xiao. If even Zhou Leng could not win against him, could Elder Qian, who was only a six star Martial Saint, do you think he could?
"Humph!" With a cold snort, Elder Qian didn't waste any more words with Elder Li and left with a flick of his sleeve.
Waiting for him to leave, Elder Wang opened his mouth.
"Elder Li, little friend Xiao Chen's strength is truly astonishing. "It looks like you've picked up a treasure this time." Elder Wang said.
However, just as he finished speaking, Elder Li's expression turned into one of worry: "We did pick up a treasure." But, it is not certain whether little friend Xiao Chen will be able to get through this crisis safely. "
Even though Elder Li was satisfied when he mocked Elder Qian, it was indeed as Elder Qian had said. Chen Xiao had provoked the Extermination Sect, so he would definitely be hunted down. Even if Chen Xiao had already planned to head to the Nine Fields, from here to there, it would take at least half a month of travel.
"Don't worry, little friend Xiao Chen will do whatever he wants. "Furthermore, with the strength he has displayed, I can also get my subordinates to help him out when I return to the headquarters." Elder Wang said.
Hearing him say so, Elder Li's heart also calmed down a bit. Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." The door was pushed open, and it was one of his men. "What's the matter?"
"Elder Li, the person you sent to inform Zhao Xing's group has returned. However, Zhao Xing's group is already not in the city anymore. His subordinate reported back.
"Out of the city?" Elder Li was a little surprised and quickly asked, "Did you find out where they went?"
Since he had promised Chen Xiao, Elder Li would naturally settle the matter well.
"It's been investigated thoroughly. They have received the heaven stage mission issued by the Mission Guild and are heading to the Nine Fields to explore the ruins of the War God." the underling replied.
"He went to the Nine Fields?" Elder Li froze for a second, he did not expect that Zhao Xing and his group of people were also going to the War God's Ruins. This way, they would have the chance to fight Chen Xiao later on. Since Elder Li did not notify him, things would not be too difficult.
"Alright, let's go down. "It's fine now." Upon coming to this conclusion, Elder Li gestured for his subordinates to leave. Afterwards, he and Elder Wang chatted for a while longer before the two separated …
By the time the two elders finished their conversation, Zhou Leng had already returned to his own residence and reported the details of Chen Xiao to Ling Xiao.
