Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation Chapter 1233: Burning Rage

Xiao Chen’s injuries were really severe. If not for his half-step Golden Body, he really would not have dared to clash head-on like that.

However, he managed to hold on in the end. Even without using his Primordial Energy or Azure Dragon Battle Armor, he managed to withstand the palm strike of a Martial Emperor.

“Wait for a moment. Remove your mask and show me your face. Our operation this time is very important. We cannot permit people of unknown origins to come with us,” Old Hong suddenly said just as Xiao Chen was about to treat his injuries, causing the atmosphere to turn very tense.

Old Hong had a knot in his heart over Xiao Chen. Since he could not openly make a move on him, he stirred up some trouble.

For this matter, it was only announced that they were recruiting half-step Martial Emperors. There was no mention of needing clarification of one’s identity. Furthermore, the Dragon Grave Sea never had the rule of checking up on someone else. This was an unwritten taboo among cultivators.

However, Old Hong was a Martial Emperor. Even if he was clearly making trouble, his words still held sway.

Xiao Chen’s heart sank. Unexpectedly, despite being a Martial Emperor, the other party was so narrow-minded. Old Hong even intended to break the unwritten taboo between cultivators.

Xiao Chen did not believe that Old Hong did not know about this taboo. After all, the other party had progressed to Martial Emperor step by step.

“Sorry, I cannot remove my mask. I am unable to comply with your request,” Xiao Chen replied coldly. At the same time, he activated the Cycle Banner hidden in his body, preparing to run at any time.

A murderous intent flashed in Old Hong’s eyes. Instantly, everyone felt tremendous pressure bearing down on them. This was an Emperor’s Might!

“Looks like you do indeed have malicious intents. It is just a mask. What is the problem with removing it? If you are not going to remove it, I will help you to!”

Old Hong was just a First Heavenly Martial Emperor. Did he really think that he was truly unrivaled?
