Shen Tian had already planned to follow Supremacy Zi Yang first before making an escape on the way. Who would have thought that a bigger problem would appear before he could settle the previous one?
What kind of rules from the ancestors are these? They forced me to become their Saint and gave me a Saintess wife too?
How would those strong disciples in the sacred ground think of me? Those who like Zhang Yunxi will try to kill me in many possible ways!
I’ve been so careful until, and yet I still encountered people like Supremacy Zi Yang.
If I’m around Zhang Yunxi every day, opponents in the Soul Formation stage will be hunting me every day!
Suddenly, Shen Tian felt that Grand White Grotto-Heaven was a much safer place than the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.
Thus, Shen Tian replied, “Fairy Yunxi, you don’t have to thank me for finding that lost chapter. Although I’ve helped you, I do not wish for anything in return. Your Divine Firmament Sacred Ground is the top sect in Eastern Wilderness. I’m not very talented, and thus not suitable to be a Saint.
“In addition, you don’t have to force yourself to marry me just because of your ancestors’ rules of the past. I’ve made a promise to myself to stay away from romantic relationships before I reach the Nascent Soul stage. You don’t have to worry about it.”
Although Shen Tian was being considerate for Zhang Yunxi’s sake, she was not very happy about it.
The people in the Weiyang Palace were astounded once again.
What? The 13th Prince rejected her?
It’s such a good opportunity to be a Saint and get married to a Saintess. He rejected it?
What’s wrong with this prince? Did his bad luck infect his brain too?
It’s the best deal he could ever have!
Are you sure your parents are okay with your decision?
Boom!
Just when everyone was enjoying this show, a loud sound echoed from a distance.
Supremacy Zi Yang climbed out of the debris and limped toward the palace’s center. His neat robe was covered in dust, his hair was very messy, while his face was covered with soot. It was obvious that the earlier punch had inflicted a lot of damage to him.
Supremacy Zi Yang stared at Zhang Yunxi and said, “I see. It’s Saintess Yunxi. I think you have heard what Shen Tian said. Since Shen Tian is not interested in being your Saint, you don’t have to follow your old ancient rules. Just let me take him back to Grand White Grotto-Heaven and complete my task.”
Although Supremacy Zi Yang was hurting from the attack, he was not someone to step back in the face of adversity.
Since Senior Brother had ordered him to bring Shen Tian back, I’ll do it no matter what!
Senior Brother is way scarier anyway…
As Zhang Yunxi quietly stared at Zi Yang, her White Tiger avatar appeared in the air.
You are merely an Elder from Grand White Grotto-Heaven, how dare you insult my ancestors’ words like this!? Since they had already made the rules in the past, we are obligated to follow them! Even though I wish to have the freedom to choose the person I love, I will not betray my sect!
“Supremacy Zi Yang, can I take it as you want to snatch away our Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s Saint?”
Zhang Yunxi was ready for another fight. She formed a lightning ball of silver and golden lightning on her right palm. The ball was spinning on her hand and releasing a loud screeching sound.
It was one of the classic moves in the Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique, Lightning Fist VII (Metal). Its power significantly increased when it was mixed with the Mixed Divine Lightning.
Zhang Yunxi had used this move to finish off a strong Nascent Soul cultivator, so one could imagine how much Zi Yang’s words had infuriated her. She would not forgive anyone that insulted her ancestors!
Although Zhang Yunxi exuded no killing intent, Supremacy Zi Yang could still feel the terrifying power surging in her body.
He knew exactly how good the top ten Golden Core cultivators were. Each individual in the Eastern Wilderness Ranking would have a secret move that could deal unimaginable damage. They were on par with Supremacies and could even kill some of the weaker Supremacies!
However, Zhang Yunxi’s strength was beyond Supremacy Zi Yang’s imagination!
Is her rank really #11? Why do I feel that she’s much stronger than Li Changge, who is ranked #9?
Did she undergo some secret training recently? Why can’t I take even one of her punches!?
“Never mind. It is true that I cannot beat you.” Supremacy Zi Yang sighed and said, “Senior Brother, I need to trouble you to come here for a moment!”
Then, Supremacy Zi Yang took out a golden token from his pocket. It was very similar to the Sword Master Token Shen Tian had, and the only difference was the color. However, the quality was totally different.
The Sword Master Token Shen Tian possessed had been specially crafted by Li Canglan. He had his sword skills imprinted on the special Spirit Gold.
Shen Tian had to spend a substantial amount of Spirit Stones to summon the sword spirit in the token. The attack’s power was only about the early-stage of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and it was only effective at most to mid-stage.
Although it was very precious, it was merely a way to protect the user.
However, the Sword Supreme Token Supremacy Zi Yang had contained a part of Li Canglan’s soul. Thus, the presence of the token represented Li Canglan himself.
This token was very special. Li Canglan would never have lent it to Supremacy Zi Yang if he did not need it to locate Master Celestial.
Since Supremacy Zi Yang knew that he was no match for Zhang Yunxi, he decided to use this Sword Supreme Token.
The token flew in the air and suddenly burst into thousands of sword auras that slowly formed an outline of a man with a giant heavy sword.
He was standing with confidence and exuded an invincible vibe. No one in Eastern Wilderness could match his way of the sword!
He was a Soul Formation cultivator, someone that even Zhang Yunxi could not defeat!
Even the number one Golden Core cultivator had no chance to defeat him! The difference was too huge!
Zhang Yunxi looked at that token and knew things were going to get very complicated now!
Shen Tian, on the other hand, looked at his Sword Master Token. It was still the same as before, but… it did not seem so strong anymore!
