C779 The Acacia Sect Was Destroyed(2)

Despite his age, he had a particular fondness for romantic affairs, which explained his willingness to share Feng Ji with Huo Dongcheng. Now, with such a tempting opportunity at hand, he considered helping Feng Ji rebuild a new Acacia Sect as an appealing option. However, that was a matter for the future. The immediate priority was to address the current issue.

According to their initial plan, Woo Zhengyang and his group were merely pawns. As long as Huo Dongsheng was indirectly eliminated, what happened with Woo Zhengyang and his group was not their concern. But now, with the Acacia Sect destroyed, they realized they had underestimated Woo Zhengyang and his companions. This individual from the small Golden Scale Domain turned out to be far more powerful than they had imagined.

While a Sovereign was formidable, in the Limitless Domain, especially in Limitless City, they weren't considered a significant threat. Besides the hidden forces, even the prominent Limitless Sect and several major families had their own Sovereigns. Because of this, they hadn't been worried about Woo Zhengyang having a Sovereign by his side. However, Woo Zhengyang's annihilation of the Acacia Sect was no simple feat. For a Sovereign to easily destroy a sect, some cost was expected.

Yet, according to those who escaped from the Acacia Sect, Woo Zhengyang had somehow acquired a powerful artifact of unimaginable might, effortlessly breaching the sect's defenses.

Moreover, many people say that its combat power rivals that of a Martial Emperor, and its defense is incredibly strong. Even when numerous Martial Kings from the Acacia Sect joined forces, they couldn't break through its protective shield. From the moment the attack began until the Acacia Sect was destroyed, Woo Zhengyang only used that one artifact. He didn't need anyone else to step in. The power of this artifact seems to surpass that of a Sovereign!

The main thing is, after destroying the Acacia Sect, Woo Zhengyang didn't leave the Limitless Domain to return to the Golden Scale Domain. Instead, he boldly returned to Limitless City, which gave Huo Dongcheng a bad feeling. Deep down, Huo Dongcheng couldn't deny that he coveted Woo Zhengyang's artifact.

"Ancestor, someone is here to see you!" Just as Huo Dongcheng was lost in thought, a servant came to report from outside.

"Didn't I say I wasn't seeing anyone?" Huo Dongcheng snapped, not in the mood for visitors.

"But Ancestor, the person said you would really want to see him! He claims to be from the Golden Scale Domain!" the servant added.

"Really want to see him? Golden Scale Domain!" At first, Huo Dongcheng was indifferent, but upon hearing "Golden Scale Domain," he jumped up and asked, "Is the visitor a young man? Did he give his name? Is he called Woo Zhengyang?"

Hearing the description, Huo Dongcheng immediately thought that Woo Zhengyang had come for revenge.

If this had been before, when Woo Zhengyang came to the Huo family, Huo Tianjue would have thought he was just walking into a trap. He could have quickly reported the situation to Huo Tianxin, resolving the issue and eliminating any future threats without bearing any responsibility.

But now, knowing Woo Zhengyang's strength, Huo Dongjue was seriously concerned that before he could even notify Huo Tianxin, the entire Huo family might already be wiped out.

Even though Limitless City has a ban on martial arts, if Woo Zhengyang was truly that powerful, who knows what could happen? If he were someone easy to deal with, he wouldn't have wiped out the Acacia Sect so swiftly.

"Ancestor, there is indeed a young man leading outside. He didn't give his name, only said he's from the Sun family of Golden Scale City!"

"The Sun family of Golden Scale City? Could Woo Zhengyang be connected to the Sun family... No, if that were true, Huo Dongcheng would have known, and Woo Zhengyang wouldn't have appeared directly in the Tianxin District."

"Bring him to the guest hall!" Huo Tianjue instructed.

The old servant acknowledged and left.

Huo Tianjue glanced at Feng Ji, noticing a hint of a smile on her face.

"What's up? Something making you happy?"

"Mr. Huo, you were just worried that Woo Zhengyang came to settle scores, weren't you?"

"So what if I was? Weren't you worried too?" Huo Tianjue replied, a bit annoyed.

"Of course, I was worried, but I quickly realized that the visitor couldn't be Woo Zhengyang. That guy's personality is too fierce. If he came to confront us, he would have done so directly, not sent someone to announce his arrival," Feng Ji chuckled.

"Isn't it Woo Zhengyang? Or someone from the Golden Scale Domain, perhaps..."

"Mr. Huo, I think we're on the same page. This unexpected visitor might just be on our side. It seems Woo Zhengyang has made quite a few enemies over there. Given his personality, it's no surprise."

"If that's the case, we definitely need to meet this person. We might learn something valuable about Woo Zhengyang, which could help us plan our next move."

"You're absolutely right," Feng Ji replied with a flattering tone.

"Alright, come with me. If necessary, you might have to make some sacrifices to get every bit of information about Woo Zhengyang," Huo Tianjue said, as he supported Feng Ji by the waist and walked out...
