Chapter 808 Alone?

Tianxu Palace Headquarters

After the previous incidents, the situation of the Tianxu Palace family as a whole is not very optimistic.

However, the high-ranking members of Tianxu Palace present today all had expressions of excitement on their faces.

Zi Donglai and Chen Guan haven't shown their faces for several months. Tianxu Palace's spies in Ziyang City and Nantian Kingdom have been keeping a close eye on this matter.

Because Zi Donglai, Chen Guan, and Jin Taohua formed an alliance, even powerful entities like the Ten Great Families were extremely wary of them, finding it difficult to take action against any of them for fear of retaliating against the other two.

Moreover, Zi Donglai has an ambiguous relationship with the Demon King's City, which makes it even more worrisome.

However, their silence over the past few months has aroused their suspicions.

After verifying the information from various sources, the higher-ups of Tianxu Palace came to the conclusion that Zi Donglai should have entered the Great Cave Heaven, and even Chen Guan should have gone to the Great Cave Heaven.

If both of them go to Da Dong Tian, ​​it can be said that this is their best opportunity.

The fact that these two people cannot return to their grotto is their best chance to reclaim the resources of their own grotto.

Otherwise, if the Gong family's resources in the cave are reduced too much and cannot meet the family's needs, it would be tantamount to severing the foundation of the great cave.

The people sent out to verify the information finally brought back definitive news today.

"Just as we analyzed and predicted, Zi Donglai entered the Ji family's Great Cave Heaven, and then left the Ji family's city, entering the barren Lei Luo Desert," Gong Xiangqian said excitedly.

Everyone was thrilled; they all knew what this meant.

Zi Donglai can reign supreme in the cave heavens, but in the great cave heavens, he can only be a seventh-level junior. If they send a ninth-level expert to pursue Zi Donglai, they can make him die without a burial place.

"How's the news from Chen Guan's side?" asked Gong Yunjian, the head of the Gong family.

"The people who went to other families did not find that Chen Guan had entered the Great Cave Heaven. It is possible that Chen Guan had a good relationship with some families, and he went to the Great Cave Heaven of those families, but those families were unwilling to reveal the news to us."

Gong Xiangqian paused for a moment and continued, "However, we found out that the Zhang family made a deal with Chen Guan a few days ago, purchasing a batch of rare treasures from him."

"What rare treasure?" Gong Yunjian asked.

“It should be the Nine-Headed Serpent. It’s of very high quality and there should be a lot of it. The Zhang family attaches great importance to it and has sent Zhang Daoshan to escort it personally,” Gong Xiangqian said.

“Then there’s no doubt about it. Chen Guan must have entered the Great Cave Heaven as well. The Nine-Headed Serpent is a rare treasure of heaven and earth that cannot be cultivated in the soil of a cave heaven,” Gong Yunjian said.

"You mean Chen Guan entered the Zhang family's grotto?" After saying that, Gong Xiangqian realized that what he said was a bit stupid.

Gong Xiangqian immediately added, "That's not right. If Chen Guan enters the Zhang family's grotto, then he doesn't need to conduct transactions in the Southern Heaven Kingdom. He can simply send the goods directly to the Zhang family."

"But if he didn't go to the Zhang family, which great grotto did he go to? The Jiang family or the Qin family? He should only have these two choices. Right now, these three families are the closest to him."

“It’s also possible that he went to the Ji family’s Great Cave Heaven,” Gong Yunjian suddenly said.

"It seems impossible for the Ji family to go to the Great Cave Heaven, right? If he had gone, the Ji family wouldn't hide their current situation from him, nor would they risk offending our Gong family for his sake. But the Ji family has told our people with certainty that Chen Guan didn't go to the Ji family's Great Cave Heaven," Gong Xiangqian said. Gong Yunjian's gaze turned cold: "Chen Guan and Zi Donglai both seem to have appeared out of nowhere, their rise was completely unexpected, yet they both possess strength that is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"Originally, they were developing in different places and were completely unrelated people who had never crossed paths before. But during the battle of the Southern Heaven Kingdom, they formed an alliance and tricked the Heavenly Army."

"We've done a cross-sectional analysis before, comparing their life trajectories. If I remember correctly, these two people have never appeared together except during the final battle in the Southern Heaven Kingdom, right?"

“No.” Gong Xiangqian looked at Gong Yunjian thoughtfully, then asked incredulously, “Patriarch, do you mean these two people…”

“Zi Donglai did not make a move during the Battle of the Southern Heavenly Kingdom, which is quite different from his usual style.”

Gong Yunjian continued, "This time they went to the Great Cave Heaven at the same time, but we only found out the whereabouts of one person."

"Don't you find it strange? We all know that if these two go to the Great Cave Heaven together, then Jin Taohua will be the only one left to support it. She will definitely be unable to hold it up by herself."

“Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t go to the Great Cave Heaven together; they would definitely go at different times to ensure safety and maintain stability in the cave heaven. But why did they choose to go to the Great Cave Heaven at the same time, knowing this?”

As everyone listened, their eyes lit up.

Yes, if they weren't forced to, how could two people like that possibly go to Da Dong Tian together?

Moreover, there are too many coincidences in their lives, all of which point to one possibility.

"Chen Guan and Zi Donglai are the same person?" Gong Xiangqian and the others were excited.

If that's true, it would be fantastic news for them.

The reason they didn't dare to attack Ziyang City even after they knew Zi Donglai had entered the Great Cave Heaven was because...

That's because Chen Guan is still alive, and Jin Taohua is still alive.

But if Chen Guan is indeed Zi Donglai, then things become simple.

Now only Jin Taohua remains, and she alone cannot defend three cities.

The Gong family could have taken this opportunity to conquer Ziyang City and reclaim the resources and benefits that rightfully belonged to them.

“But what if it isn’t? What if Chen Guan didn’t go to the Great Cave Heaven?” someone from the Gong family questioned.

If the same thing happens again and the Gong family suffers another crushing defeat, their situation will be even worse.

Moreover, having offended Chen Guan like this, if he hadn't gone to Da Dong Tian, ​​the Gong family's businesses in Da Dong Tian would likely have faced Chen Guan's furious retaliation.

They have already deeply offended Zi Donglai, and if they were to add Chen Guan, who is no less capable than Zi Donglai, as an enemy, the Gong family's situation would be precarious.

“That’s simple. The one in the ancestral court hates Chen Guan even more than we do, and wants him dead even more. Just let him know. Or rather, we don’t even need to tell him. He must have been keeping an eye on Chen Guan and Zi Donglai all along. With just a little guidance, he should be happy to help us rule out this possibility,” Gong Yunjian said.

"The patriarch is indeed wise. That Chief Qi has the ability to arrest people by name. As long as he goes to the Ji family's Great Cave Heaven, he can immediately help us find out whether Chen Guan is Zi Donglai or not, and may even solve this big problem directly..." Gong Xiangqian became more and more excited as he spoke.
