Chapter 717: Return! Treasure Hunting in the City Lord Residence! Unexpected! Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Although Chu Feng was skeptical, after all, it was only a guess. Without evidence, he could not be bothered to say anything. This would prevent the Third Commander from thinking that he was deliberately framing his comrade. However, he suppressed this suspicion in his heart. “Let’s go. Since there’s nothing else, we’ll rush back to the Emperor’s City now.” The Seventh Commander smiled easily. They could only stay away from the Emperor City for two hours at most. An hour had already passed since the battle. If they did not return soon, they might die outside. Chu Feng and the others had no objections. They had gained quite a bit from that wave. Their silver armor was almost full. It was good to go back. Then, without saying anything, he rushed back to the Great Emperor City. Just as Chu Feng and the others entered the city, Huangpu Ming and the others arrived. The two teams passed each other. Chu Feng sized up Huangpu Ming suspiciously. He had a feeling that something was wrong with this guy. Hmm… His willpower seemed to have become stronger? However, Huangpu Ming was soon called over for questioning by the Second Commander and the others. Chu Feng did not take it to heart. He led everyone to hand over their gains. Then, he let everyone rest. He walked in the direction of the City Lord Residence. Chu Feng was still thinking about the Great Emperor’s gifts that the Second Commander had mentioned. Something that even a divine-grade expert would flock to… The treasures left behind by the Great Emperor in the City Lord Residence back then… What could they be? Chu Feng felt as if his heart was being scratched by a cat. However, he knew his limits. According to the Second Commander, many of the commanders had also gone in to search, but they had found nothing. Even such experts were unable to discover anything, let alone Chu Feng. It was really what the Great Emperor had said. Only those who were lucky could get it. Chu Feng took it as a trip for fun. He mainly planned to absorb the Spring of Life! After obtaining the permanent use of the Spring of Life, he had not had the time to experience it. The consecutive battles in the past few days had consumed a lot of his little golden beans. It was time to replenish them. As he pondered, Chu Feng walked up to the City Lord Residence. What greeted his eyes was a magnificent mansion, which was also the tallest building in the City of the Great Emperor. At this moment, the voice of the main control system suddenly sounded in his ears. [Silver-armored Sergeant Chu Feng is allowed to enter.] The next moment, the door of the City Lord Residence opened with a bang. Chu Feng did not hesitate and walked in. In the middle of the courtyard, there was only a towering tree that soared into the sky. The huge tree crown almost covered the entire Great Emperor City! Even the roots on the ground were taller than Chu Feng’s head. Countless leaves covered the sky! It was daunting! Heavenly Tree King! The accompanying spiritual plant of the Great Emperor! It was also an extremely powerful spiritual plant expert. Over the past few days, everything everyone had done was actually to revive the Heavenly Tree King! Because only the Heavenly Tree King had the power to resist the Spirit King. Otherwise, when the Spirit King woke up, everything would be nothing! Chu Feng extended his hand and wanted to go forward to stroke the roots. However, it was as if an invisible force had completely isolated Chu Feng and prevented him from approaching. Chu Feng pondered. Perhaps this was one of the Heavenly Tree King’s means of self-protection. Therefore, even if the Spirit Army breached the City of the Great Emperor, they would not be able to cause any damage to the Heavenly Tree King, right? Chu Feng shook his head and continued walking. Suddenly, he felt a vast aura surge toward him, nearly pressing him to the ground. Suppressing the pressure, Chu Feng raised his head. Above his head was a golden-red wooden plaque with the words “City Lord Residence” written on it. However, these simple words seemed to have supreme power. No one dared to look at them directly. “Could this be written by the Great Emperor himself back then?” Chu Feng muttered. Otherwise, he would not have such powerful pressure. Thinking of this, Chu Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up. “So… this thing is a treasure?” “If this is what the Great Emperor left behind, even if the Second Commander and the others discover it, they won’t dare to touch it!” Of course, to Chu Feng, there was naturally nothing he did not dare to do. He immediately planned to climb up and pluck it. But after several attempts, he still could not climb up. He, a pseudo-god, could not even climb up the door… “Damn, how strange!” Chu Feng muttered. “Looks like the Netherworld Emperor didn’t want anyone to touch this plaque.” Chu Feng muttered to himself. If the Netherworld Emperor heard these words, he would probably want to slap Chu Feng to death. The plaque of the mansion was equivalent to the face of the master! Would you let someone climb on your face! Chu Feng curled his lip. He walked straight into the mansion. Looking around, it was no different from the decorations of ordinary big houses. The main hall, guest room, side room… There were pavilions and flowing water. They were all very daily furnishings. Chu Feng walked around but did not find anything unusual. No wonder the Second Commander and the others found nothing. There was really no abnormality at all! Chu Feng planned to give up. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a small room. Looking in from the window, the furnishings looked like a study. It also looked very ordinary. Chu Feng did not have much hope. However, since he was already here, he had to take a look around. He would treat it as an adventure in an ancient house… He pushed open the study door. Even after countless years, the study was still spotless. All the items were neatly arranged. There were bookshelves, ancient books, treasures, various weapons, including sabers, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks. Chu Feng curled his lip. “This Netherworld Emperor was clearly a man who played with everything.” He went deep into the study. There were even more miscellaneous items. Furthermore, Chu Feng discovered a portrait on the wall of the study. The portrait only had a few simple strokes, but he vaguely seemed to see an indomitable man standing with his hands behind his back, looking down on all living beings. Chu Feng’s eyes widened. “Could this be… a self-portrait of the Great Emperor?” However, as Chu Feng observed for a long time, he felt as if an endless huge vortex had appeared before his eyes. He had a splitting headache! “Hiss… It hurts! This painting is not simple! I can’t even take a second look!” Chu Feng covered his head and said excitedly. “Take it away! This is definitely a treasure!” However, the next moment, Chu Feng was dumbfounded. “Damn, I can’t take it off?!” Chu Feng was truly speechless. In this City Lord Residence, as long as it looked like something good on the surface, it could not be taken away! He could only watch. Wasn’t this a joke?! Chu Feng was already in no mood to continue searching for treasures. Forget it, let’s go! Chu Feng curled his lip. Just as he was about to leave, his gaze was suddenly attracted by a long saber hanging not far away. “This saber… Why does it look like the Cleaved Edge Saber I once used?” “But… If I remember correctly, isn’t the Cleaved Edge Saber a simplified version of the Nine Sabers God Emperor’s saber? Why is it here??” Why was this place related to the Nine Sabers God Emperor?? This sudden scene instantly confused Chu Feng…
