Imperial Palace.
Inside the great hall.
Emperor Dugu Jingtian was listening to a guard's report on the situation in Heavenly Water City.
"What did you say?" Dugu Jingtian's eyebrows twitched, and his eyes revealed a look of surprise, "He Hentian's personal bodyguard, Iron Bull, was killed by Gao Fei?"
"Yes," the guard nodded.
"If I remember correctly, Iron Bull should be at the Tribulation Crossing Stage Cultivation, right?" Dugu Jingtian asked with a heavy voice.
"Transcendance Tribulation Stage, Second Layer."
"What is Gao Fei's current level of cultivation?"
"Unity of Heaven and Man, First Layer."
"…" Dugu Jingtian's face twitched violently, "There's a whole major realm difference, how did Gao Fei kill Iron Bull? This is simply inconceivable." After a pause, Dugu Jingtian added, "Did Gao Fei get help?"
"No," the guard shook his head.
"Gao Fei killed Iron Bull by himself?"
"…It seems so."
