Chapter 821
The three young masters kept ridiculing Chen Xiu kneeling at the door of the city lord's mansion . In their eyes, Chen Xiu's action was just wishful thinking . After all, should the city lord meet all the branch family descendants whenever they wanted to meet him?
Even if the four young masters came to the city lord's mansion, he might not open the door for them .
Chen Xiu completely ignored them and repeated in a solemn voice while looking at the tightly closed large door, "Morrow Clan's branch family descendant Chen Xiu requests an audience with the city lord . "
Ming Wang was standing on the side and clearly saw Chen Xiu's pale face after losing too much blood because of the attack just a moment ago . He was sure that it had also left behind some half god energy which wantonly destroyed everything in Chen Xiu's body . If he wasn't treated on time, he might die at the door of the city lord's mansion .
Patriarch had asked Ming Wang to bring Chen Xiu alive and not as a corpse .
Ming Wang sighed and tried to convince him with a calm expression . "Rather than struggling here, wouldn't it be better for you to return to Morrow Clan to see Patriarch? Although he has lost his beloved son, he won't put you to death, but would eternally imprison you in the spirit prison . You will die here sooner or later, but if you return to Morrow Clan, you can survive despite being at death's door . "
Chen Xiu snorted, returning was definitely a path to hell . Once he came back like Ming Wang said, he might be able to avoid death, but it would be difficult to escape that living hell of a spirit prison . He would be tormented inside it his whole life while clinging to his life . Rather than living like that, it would be better to stake his life and try to fight for a way to survive .
Jasmine saw that Chen Xiu had Asura Eyes in his hand and said while feigning astonishment, "Morrow Clan's Asura Eyes are surprisingly in little brother's hands . Has brother Ming Xiu really died in your hands?"
Ming Wang looked at Jasmine with an ugly expression for repeating it in front of him in different tones . Ming Xiu's death, could it still be false after his life tile had broken? The three young masters knew about it for a long time, but upon seeing Asura Eyes in Chen Xiu's hands, they feigned astonishment to drag down Morrow Clan's face .
Jasmine saw that there was no reaction from Chen Xiu or Ming Wang and said with a smile, "Is little brother thinking of handing over the Morrow Clan's treasure to the city lord and use it to request the city lord's protection?"
"If he really wanted to use Asura Eyes to request asylum from the city lord, then he really is a blockhead . What kind of person is the city lord? How could he covet such a treasure?
"Who knows how many treasures, comparable to the treasures of the four clans, are stored in this city lord's mansion? Not to mention that what's the use of protecting a branch family descendant with impure bloodline? To keep him as a slave in the city lord's mansion?"
Domingle smiled, and disdain leaked out from his voice .

Luo Tian, who was playing with his crystal wineglass until then, also spoke . "That's right . He can only be a slave . This is the only path for someone who has committed a grave offence like assassinating a clan's young master and still wanting to live . "
There wasn't the slightest change in Chen Xiu's expression . Once he saw that the door was still shut, he suddenly shouted, "Morrow Clan's branch family descendant Chen Xiu requests an audience with the city lord and god father! I have a part of Ancient God Lakshmi's soul in my hand . "
Once he said those words, the expressions of the three young masters who were taunting him earlier grew taut . The next instant, they immediately stood up from their chairs and looked at Chen Xiu kneeling on the ground . Their minds were filled with thoughts of immediately capturing him and torturing him until he handed over Ancient God Lakshmi's soul .
Ming Wang also trembled slightly,and he finally retreated a step back .
They were next to the city lord's mansion, however, so no one would dare to attack . What was more, the clan had obtained information that Ancient God Lakshmi's soul had returned to Lakshmi City . She possessed another person's body for rebirth and released her ancient god presence to attract the attention of other five ancient gods in the divine palace . So how could Chen Xiu have Ancient God Lakshmi's soul? He was clearly lying .
For deceiving the high and mighty god father and Ashbi, Chen Xiu's ending would definitely be miserable .
Clang!

A loud sound echoed, and the tightly shut door of the city lord's mansion opened . A maid with a busty build walked out and arrogantly glanced at the three young masters and Wang Ming . She bowed slightly in their direction before turning toward Chen Xiu kneeling on the ground and saying in a dull voice, "God father wants to see you . "
Chen Xiu's taut nerves relaxed . He was sure that he had won his gamble . The matter of Ancient God Lakshmi escaping pursuit and returning to Lakshmi City had already spread throughout Asura City . The reason he spoke the words he did at the door of the city lord's mansion was not to court death but to attract the attention of the city lord and god father .
Fortunately, he won the gamble .
Chen Xiu restrained the half god's energy recklessly moving around in his body and slowly crawled up from the ground to walk into the city lord's mansion under the pitying gazes of Mang Wing and the three young masters .
"What do you say, how long will it take before his corpse is thrown out?"
"Will he even have a corpse? He won't have a good ending after provoking the city lord . When I took the children releasing the five-colored light and it was discovered that they were only bait set by Ancient God Lakshmi to deceive us, he cursed me without restraint . This time, probably not even a little speck of Chen Xiu will remain . "
"That's very likely . I will wait here then . If Chen Xiu infuriates god father and city lord Ashbi, there will certainly be an explosion of divine energy in this skull . "

Inside the city lord's mansion, Chen Xiu dragged his injured body after the maid while carefully observing the interior of the building . Among the descendants of the four great clans, only the four young masters were allowed to follow their patriarch to pay respects once a year inside the city lord's mansion . The other descendants would never have the opportunity to enter the city lord's mansion .
Just one glance around the city lord's mansion left Chen Xiu gobsmacked .
After passing through the large door, he entered another world . Although the skull seemed large from the outside, it contained a much more space inside . After entering it, Chen Xiu discovered that the city lord's mansion was a small world in itself . When he raised his head, he saw a sky at the top, filled with a few scattered clouds .
A red and glowing pearl was hanging high above like a sun . On the ground, there were two ponds with water so clean that their bottom could be seen . Several dragon fish glinting with golden light were swimming around them while emanating half god presence .
Pouring power of belief into dragon fish… that was just too extravagant .
Chen Xiu sighed while thinking, Comparisons are odious . As a branch family descendant of one of the four clans, he could already be considered to live in another world compared to the poor people . But he was simply equivalent to dust compared to the dragon fish of the city lord's mansion . The cultivation of a fish was higher than his .
The city lord's mansion obtained the largest amount of power of belief in Asura City, so the four young masters had fought against each other to obtain Ancient God Lakshmi's soul which would allow them to enter the eyes of Ancient God Asura . They also schemed to become the patriarchs of their clans, all to obtain even more power of belief .
Power of belief was quite miraculous . It could instantly raise the cultivation of an ordinary person to the level of a god, but the amount required for it was extremely large . No one of the senior generation in Asura City would be so magnanimous, since they had already used some power of belief to become gods . Even the four young masters would have to cultivate step by step and become half gods before they could use the power of belief to instantly become gods .
