All sorts of bounty orders covered the sky and covered the streets and alleyways of the various great provinces.
Every single Seagoing Clerk was covered with the outer walls of every single ancient city.
Towards the remnants of Alien Alliance, every single side of Immortal Realm had the thought of never letting go, and they had to uncover them one by one.
The remnant evildoers of the Alien Alliance, hiding and hiding, lived a life like a mouse. But even so, those who should not have been able to escape could not avoid it. Heads constantly hung from the walls of the various prefectures.
In the past, everyone from the five hundred prefectures wanted to get the wind and the rain to help them. Now, they were afraid and could not live as well as dogs.
Even if they hid to the ends of the earth, people with Immortal Realm would always be able to find those important people with Alien Alliance. None of the Monarch Immortal s could escape. Within half a year, all of them had fallen into the trap, and only the people from the lower star ocean could escape.
Some of the remnants of Alien Alliance, in order to avoid the pursuit and killing of the various forces of Immortal Realm, went down the sea of stars in the four provinces off the coast.
It was impossible for the pursuers to chase into the sea of stars. If one went too deep, he or she would be doomed. He or she would be lost in the natural environment of the sea of stars and would be unable to leave.
The four coastal regions were Siren Prefecture, Lancang, Big River Region, and Wo Prefecture respectively.
They were all located to the left of the Weak River and belonged to the northwest border of the five hundred prefectures.
Siren Prefecture were now in the hands of the Ancestor Pavilion, and Lancang Province was originally a possession of the Northern Chens Immortal King, but it was snatched away by the Immortal King Tian Ming.
Right now, the control of the River Continent and the Wo Zhou were in the hands of the Northern Chens Immortal King. However, these two provinces were not the ideal place to go to sea, and the sea areas outside the coastline were filled with danger.
Great River Continent, Immortal King Palace of Northern Chen.
Zhan Beichen had constructed a palace here. It was luxurious and grand, which did not fit his fiery temper.
In the palace, in the rear garden, no one was aware of the place, even Zhan Beichen's closest subordinates were not allowed to enter.
Zhan Beichen and a tall man were seated facing each other. Beneath the Banyan Forest, the two were drinking together.
"My life with you has been so enjoyable that I've almost forgotten who I am." The man was big and tall. He was a head taller than Zhan Beichen, and the platinum external bone armor made him look like a war god.
Gu Taotian!
The Immortal Realm outside could not find him, and it turned out that Zhan Beichen had hidden him within the palace.
Zhan Beichen chuckled and said: "My place is naturally safe. You can rest assured that no one will be able to find out about this place."
Gu Taotian said: "A few days ago, a pretty lady barged in, she saw me."
As he said that, Gu Taotian raised his head, drank a cup, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that it was your man. I killed her, to keep it a secret, there's nothing I can do ?"
He did not care. A woman's life, this apology sounded insincere.
Zhan Beichen smiled, with a look of indifference, he said: "It's just a concubine girl, it's fine if I kill her, if you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that there's such a person in my palace ?"
But in Zhan Beichen's heart, he harrumphed, Kill? Of course he knew what Gu Taotian had done, it was just that he did not want to flare up yet.
"Hehe, Brother Zhan is magnanimous!" Gu Taotian gave Zhan Beichen a toast. In his heart, he was somewhat disdainful towards this person who had the same temperament as him.
Seeing Gu Taotian drink, from cup to cup, the corner of Zhan Beichen's mouth raised slightly in a smile.
Zhan Beichen had already hidden Gu Taotian here for the better part of a year. After his loss in the five hundred prefectures was recovered by the Immortal Realm, Gu Taotian came to seek refuge with Zhan Beichen.
Zhan Beichen, was originally someone from the Devil Realm as well!
Only, the difference was that Gu Taotian was from the Bone Devil and Zhan Beichen was from Human Clan.
Devil Realm also had a lot of them, but they were generally just blood food raised by the Devil Clan. Therefore, in Gu Taotian's heart, he had an innate sense of superiority and contempt for Human Clan.
But later on, when the number of Human Clan in the Devil Realm increased, it was inevitable for strong practitioners to appear as well.
As for the various Devil Clan, in order to stabilize their own power, they would put the rising of their Human Clan in the second session of the Immortal Origin Stage as a secret. Although they were called spies, they were actually abandoning them. However, they still wanted to squeeze the remaining value out of them, so they used them to do business in the Immortal Origin and Two Worlds.
For people like Zhan Beichen, even if they died at the Immortal Realm, the higher ups of the Devil Realm would not lament over it.
This was the dark ruling class.
More important than development was the preservation of the interests of the ruling class and absolute power. Whoever provoked this rule would be targeted immediately and without mercy.
"Mm ?" "Good wine ?"
As the two ate and drank, Gu Taotian would occasionally reveal his noble identity as the Bone Devil Clan Royal Bloodline and despise the commoner class Zhan Beichen. Speak of some past memories regarding Devil Realm, to reminisce and sigh from time to time.
Zhan Beichen continued to laugh, as though he was an idiot, his eyes were filled with sincerity, he was not angered even though he was looked down upon, but only foolishly laughed a few times.
Gu Taotian talked non-stop, eating and drinking, laughing and talking, until he gradually felt that he was "slightly drunk".
"Ha!" This wine is quite strong, it's good wine! " Gu Taotian gave Zhan Beichen a big thumbs up, and said that to him, while vigorously shaking his head.
He still hadn't realized that his current state wasn't one where he was lightly tipsy.
"I am a dignified Half-step Immortal King, why is my strength so low today?" Gu Taotian frowned, he suddenly realised the problem, his physique was not that weak.
He sized up the wine in the cup with some suspicion. Whether it was the taste or color, as long as he observed it with his Spiritual Sense, only he would dare to drink it.
But why? Was he still hit?
"You ? It's you? What do you want to do!? " When Gu Taotian smashed the cup, he suddenly noticed that underneath Zhan Beichen's simple and honest face, there was a slight smile on his lips.
On the corner of his mouth hung a mocking and cold smile!
"Sure enough, you did it. What poison did you poison me with?" Why am I not aware of it at all! " Gu Taotian wanted to shout, but he suddenly felt that he lacked strength. He felt that he was losing strength bit by bit.
He gradually lost his mana, strength, consciousness, and life!
Zhan Beichen stood up from the Stone Table, hands behind his back, and lightly smiled: "Brother Gu, I believe you should know that the Medicine King had once refined the Shadowless Powder, right?"
The work of the Pill King was naturally unusual. To stand out among the Herb Refining Master s of the Immortal King, he naturally had something to offer.
The Shadowless Powder was a poison created by the Pill King. It was colourless, tasteless, and undetectable. Because it was a chronic poison. He would not die immediately, so when the medicine was administered, the opponent's divine instinct would not give rise to a premonition that his life was in danger.
"You! When did you drug me?! " Gu Taotian shouted in shock, he was already extremely vigilant, even if it was something that Zhan Beichen had personally delivered, he would have to carefully inspect it before he could use it.
However, he was still poisoned, and Shadowless Powder was too terrifying. Unless he was a Immortal King Alchemist, he would never realise it.
"This is an Immortal Grade poison that even the Immortal King s can poison. The Medicine King didn't leave behind much, I had gotten half a bottle, I didn't expect it to be used on you ?" Zhan Beichen chuckled, "You should feel honored."
"You, you, you ?" Gu Taotian wanted to attack, but when he exerted his strength, he suddenly fell to the ground. He laid on the ground and looked at Zhan Beichen who was standing in front of him in fear.
Zhan Beichen laughed coldly: "It looks like you're the same as most people with Immortal Realm, you think I'm a brainless person?"
Seeing Gu Taotian struggling to get up, Zhan Beichen said in a light and disdainful tone, "Don't waste your strength. Once the Shadowless Powder activated, even Immortal King would become dispirited, let alone you ? "
Thinking about his concubine, who had died miserably at Gu Taotian's hands, as a man, Zhan Beichen couldn't bear the feeling of humiliation and killing intent.
However, he did not want to kill Gu Taotian for the sake of his concubine. From the second day of Gu Taotian's allegiance to Zhan Beichen, Zhan Beichen had already decided to kill him.
"You ? What do you want to do! Don't forget, you are someone from the Devil Realm, aren't you afraid that Lord Demon Lord will settle his debts in the future?! " Gu Taotian endured the fear in his heart, and threatened.
However, he didn't even have the strength to speak. His words weren't intimidating at all.
"Lord Demon Lord, huh?" Zhan Beichen laughed disdainfully, "I'm afraid that after the Space-time Heavenly Monarch crossed over to the Devil Realm realm, your so-called Lord Demon Lord would have already been killed."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Gu Taotian bellowed, he did not allow anyone to insult his idol, the Demon Lord.
Zhan Beichen lifted his foot, stepped on the stone chair, and said while looking at Gu Taotian: "The Gate of Immortal Realm has opened up many realms, such as Devil Realm, Nine Netherworld, Profound Realm and Spiritual World ? Not a single person came up to the Immortal Realm, do you know what this means? "
Gu Taotian took a deep breath. It wasn't that he couldn't think of such a thing, it was just that he didn't dare to think of it in the past.
"I guess, we probably don't even have a decent Half-step Immortal King on our Devil Realm right now ?" Zhan Beichen disdainfully said, "Alien Alliance, I have no future, I won't be like you guys, foolishly sending myself to my death."
"You, you poisoned me for that woman?!" Gu Taotian felt that Zhan Beichen was just too impulsive, he was indeed a brainless fellow.
However, Zhan Beichen laughed coldly, "No, no, no... From the second day you came here, I started poisoning you. It's just that you didn't know it, so you thought you were very vigilant. "
"I had no enmity with you before, why did you ?"
"Because I don't want to get involved with any of you anymore!" Zhan Beichen suddenly raised his voice and shouted.
He was slightly excited: "I was doing very well in Immortal Realm, I don't want others to know, I am also a spy in Devil Realm. If that happens, everything that I possess will disappear in an instant! "
"I don't care about the Devil Realm. Even in the Devil Realm, you don't take us seriously. Why would I work so hard for you?" Zhan Beichen sneered.
He had obtained his current status by working hard with his Immortal Realm, so he was naturally not willing to sacrifice everything, including his own life, for the sake of an unwarm Devil Realm.
Zhan Beichen had hid it for many years, and it had nothing to do with Alien Alliance, but Gu Taotian still recognized him from the markings on his body.
At that time, Gu Taotian was being chased down by all sorts of Immortal Realm and he had nowhere to run, so he came to find Zhan Beichen.
But to Zhan Beichen, the arrival of Gu Taotian was his life urging talisman.
