Jiang Ming always remembered Dongfang Chenxi in his heart. She was a person who had always worshiped him and helped him selflessly. In fact, he himself was also planning to give her a visit to at least help her evolve her inner world into the small chiliocosm.
When he heard her plea for help, Jiang Ming didn’t hesitate at all. He said his goodbyes to Ye Qingxian and swiftly returned to Chuyang Peak.
Immediately after, he locked on onto Dongfang Chenxi coordinate and descended into another great chiliocosm.
It was the Xuanhuang Great Chiliocosm, where Dongfang Chenxi was residing. His father was Great Emperor Dongfang, a great Quasi-Sage expert.
In the depths of the endless starry sky, a palace that appeared out of thin air was attacked by many experts. Various large formations enveloping the palace were breached one after another as the restraints were destroyed layer after layer.
Deep in the palace, Dongfang Chenxi sat on the palace throne. She was pale as a ghost, but kept her composure, pretending to be calm.
Many of the palace maids were in a panic, while the guards were standing guard outside, evoking the formation to defend themselves.
‘Father has been entrapped. His last message transmitted was for me to escape into the torrents of the void. Yet it’s still too late! My father is Great Emperor Dongfang! To think that they dare blatantly go against him like this! Sacred Lands! The Sacred Lands have a bunch of really lawless beings! And the Heaven Court, why aren’t they taking any actions? What should I do?’
Dongfang Chenxi was feeling extremely helpless. Feeling the constant fluctuations of the great formations and the layers of restraint collapsing rapidly, her heart was full of despair. She suddenly thought of Jiang Ming.
‘Can brother Jiang really cross worlds?’ Such a thought suddenly appeared in Dongfang Chenxi’s mind.
A few days ago, Luo Heng even told of Jiang Ming’s deeds back in the group chat where he took down more than a dozen of Saint Experts by himself. It was a truly sky-defying feat.
As soon as such a thought crossed her mind, she communicated through the Supreme Order.
When she heard Jiang Ming replying, she was overjoyed. Yet, just when she was sending the messages, a deafening explosion erupted right outside her palace. The great formations had been completely breached and the palace was collapsing. Dongfang Chenxi’s little face instantly turned as pale as ghosts.
“It’s over!” Her eyes were full of despair. Even if her brother Jiang Ming could cross over to her world, it would definitely take a long time to travel through the endless Chaos to get to her.
A group of experts rushed in and slaughtered many of the guards. Many of the palace maids died, while the rest of them retreated into the palace.
“Chang Yang, stop this instance!” Dongfang Chenxi stood up and shouted at the intruder as she suppressed the fear in her heart. She waved her hands at the same time, luminance covered the entire palace hall, protecting the remaining maiden from harm’s way.
There were twenty to thirty experts who broke into the palace. The weakest among them were of Taiyi Realm. Most of them were Great Overarching Golden Immortal Experts. One of them was even a terrifying Quasi-Sage who was wielding a long sword that was comparable to Chenxi’s father’s own Dao vessel.
“Stop?” Chang Yang who stood at the very front gave her a cold smile. His chin was perked a little, giving off a feeling of utmost arrogance. He had a very young appearance. The set of Dao Vessels that he was equipped in were glimmering with all sorts of divine luminance, intertwining with each other to form a halo behind him, setting off his supreme status.
“I’m paying you back a thousand times for the shame that you’ve all trampled upon us!” Chang Yang’s tone of voice was filled with endless pleasure. “The Heaven Court? Great Emperor Dongfang? They are nothing in the face of the Sacred Lands! Dongfang Chenxi, do you regret it now? You could’ve had a future with infinite possibilities! Status above all! Yet now? Haha! I’ll imprison you and use you to my likings. Alas! The Innate Saint Daoist Body! Who would’ve thought that you’d have such a supreme Daoist body? I’ll be draining your blood dry, siphoning your fortunes and sucking dry your very soul.”
Dongfang Chenxi was extremely furious. Her eyes were blood-shot red. Although she was feeling helpless at heart, she was forcing herself to remain calm. However, she felt something tingling in her heart right this very moment and turned her head over, only to see a person appearing right beside her.
“Brother Jiang Ming!” Stunned by his sudden appearance, Dongfang Chenxi exclaimed as she threw herself over at Jiang Ming, immediately bursting into tears. “Brother Jiang Ming! I thought…I thought I would never see you again! I was even ready to self-destruct!”
“I’m here now. Leave it to me.” Jiang Ming patted her shoulder softly, feeling sorry for her.
They’ve long met each other back in the Supreme Pagoda.
“Did I cause you trouble?” Dongfang Chenxi raised her little face and looked at Jiang Ming with her face filled with tears. It was really heartbreaking.
“Trouble?” Jiang Ming shook his head and smiled. “You’ve heard from that guy Luo Heng before. I’ve killed more than a dozen Saints not long ago. I am now even stronger than I was then. You can just be at ease!”
“Brother Jiang Ming! I knew it! I just knew that sooner or later, you would grow into an upstanding man! I didn’t think that it would be so soon!”Dongdang Chenxi burst into tears and smiled. “I’ll…I’ll leave it to you then.”
“Killing more than dozens of Saint Experts?” Chang Yang, who was a little surprised, couldn’t help himself from bursting into laughter. “Are the braggarts nowadays this wild and unscrupulous? Who are you, you little brat? How dare you intervene in the affairs of our Five Elemental Sacred Land?”
Jiang Ming merely took a glance, before completely ignoring him. Instead, he looked at Dongfang Chenxi and asked, “What’s going on here? Isn’t your father the Great Emperor Dongfang? Why would you all be afraid of them?”
“The Five Elemental Sacred Land has Saints behind their back.” Dongfang Chenxi gave a wry smile. Just when she was about to explain what happened, Chang Yang couldn’t help himself and sneered, “How dare my future girl slave being so chummy in front of me? You’re courting death!”
A gourd suddenly appeared on top of Chang Yang’s head. As soon as it was opened, the mouth of the gourd was directly aimed at Jiang Ming as thousands of black needles were sprayed out, each of which contained auras of destruction. It was apparent that the gourd was a Quasi-Sage level Dao Vessel.
“Be careful Brother Jiang!” Dongfang Chenxi subconsciously exclaimed.
“These are merely worthless little tricks. Worry not!” As Jiang Ming smiled at the attack, the divine needles that were shot at him suddenly froze in place. They dissipated into thin air right after, turning back into its most primitive forms of particles and disappearing into the void.
The gourd above Chang Yang’s head exploded into pieces as well.
Chang Yang, who was akin to a later stage Great Overarching Expert was immediately shocked.
“Big Brother Hei Ze! Quickly! Take me away!” He was also a very decisive person.
However, before Hei Ze, the Quasi-Sage Expert could make his move, the surroundings suddenly froze in place. Dozens of experts including Hei Ze were suppressed on the spot, unable to lift a single finger.
“It’s done. Chenxi, you can go on now.” Jiang Ming no longer paid any attention to these maggots on death tolls.
“Brother Jiang Ming! They…They…” Dongfang Chenxi was taken aback once again.
“I’ve suppressed them temporarily. We’ll deal with them later.” Jiang Ming said with a smile.
“Brother Jiang Ming is truly mighty!Brother Jiang Ming is truly awesome!” Dongfang Chenxi cheered.
It took some time before she calmed herself down and continued to explain to Jiang Ming what happened here in the past.
In this very world, there was once a Dao Monarch with six disciples, a total of seven of Saints. They had total control over all beings, capable of manipulating other people’s fate. They saw the Heavens and Earth as their chessboard and the sentient beings as chess pieces, altering and staging the people’s destiny.
There was also the Heaven Court. This was the supreme authorial force established by that Dao Monarch that held the utmost authority over the infinite galaxies. Unfortunately, it was controlled by the six other Saints. The power of authority of the Heaven Court was divided among the disciples of the six Sacred Lands.
Dongfang Chenxi’s father, the Great Emperor Dongfang, who was also known as the Verdant Emperor, was not a disciple of the six great Saints, but the Heavenly Emperor’s confidant. However, because of his overwhelming cultivation base, he was later given the throne of Verdant Emperor.
The Heavenly Emperor had great ambitions, yet he was unable to advance into the Saint Realm. He could only swallow his anger and continue acting in a low-key manner.
With the position as the Verdant Emperor, Chenxi’s father had status so noble that even the six great Sacred Lands would’ve given him face. However, this incident had made it known to the world. In the face of the Sacred Lands, even the Verdant Emperor was nothing!
