The divine king and Huai An continued to engage in an intense battle in outer space. Sword Qi crisscrossed the surroundings as sword intent surged. Every single strand of sword Qi was as resplendent as a waterfall, like a river of stars. They radiated with devastating power.
The divine king was a Primordial realm expert, and his Laws of the Sword had reached Sword Immortal. Sword Qi permeated his surroundings as countless illusionary swords danced around him.
Right now, he really seemed like an immortal of the sword. He seemed like he was floating in the air.
On the other side, Huai An surged with demonic aura. He controlled the Laws of Darkness, overturning light and obscuring the sun and moon, causing them to dim. He clashed with the divine king's Laws of the Sword time and time again.
The battle between the two of them seemed to be extremely intense, but they did not actually engage in a battle to the death. However, even with that being the case, the shockwaves from their battle were devastating, causing space to distort and space to become chaotic.
They kept each other busy so that they did not have the energy to worry about Jianchen.
This was already the limit of the divine king's abilities. He was unable to do anything about the three Divine King who pursued Jianchen.
The heritage of the current Divine Kingdom of Pingtian was just too shallow. Even though they already possessed a Primordial realm expert, they still only had a single Grand Imperial Protector as a Divine King.
Moreover, the Grand Imperial Protector was only an early Divine King. He was powerless against the danger that Jianchen faced.
At this moment, Jianchen successfully entered the territory of the Heavenly Moon Empire after passing through the teleportation formation. After destroying the teleportation formation in the Heavenly Moon Empire, he and Caia shot towards the imperial capital of the Heavenly Moon Empire with lightning speed.
Along the way, Jianchen ingested some more healing pills. Coupled with the regeneration of his Chaotic Body, he recovered as quickly as he could.
Caia also ingested healing pills as he travelled as quickly as he could with Jianchen.
"Jianchen, where are we going next?" Caia asked. This was the first time she had left the Dong 'an province since coming to the Saints' World, and she had escaped from the pursuit of three experts. She was completely unfamiliar with the Saints' World, so she had no idea what to do now.
After hearing Caia's words, Jianchen pondered for a moment and said, "Now that we've been targeted by the Heavenly Demon Religion, we definitely can't return to the Tianyuan family. Therefore, we can only flee further away and completely escape their pursuit. "
"Our greatest enemy isn't the three Divine King, but one of the three vice-leaders of the Heavenly Demon Religion, Huai An. Although Huai An has been kept busy by the divine king, it definitely won't last for long. As a result, we need to find a way to avoid him. "
The light in Jianchen's eyes flickered when he reached there. He frowned in thought for a while before making up his mind. He said, "Let's go to the Blood Sun Empire!"
Before long, Jianchen and Caia arrived at the imperial capital of the Heavenly Moon Empire. They did not stop at all. After paying quite a hefty fee, they went to the Blood Sun Empire through the teleportation formation there.
The Blood Sun Empire was the ruler of the southern region. They were supreme, and their authority in the southern region was equivalent to the Xi dynasty in the northern region. They were supreme existences.
Now that Jian Chen had caught the attention of the vice-leader of the Empyrean Demon Cult, Huai An, if there was a place in the southern region that could make a Primordial realm expert like Huai An fear, it would be the eternal Blood Sun Empire.
At the same time, in the northern region of the Cloud Plane.
In the imperial palace of the Xi Empire, a talented, beautiful woman who only seemed to be in her twenties sat in a pavilion with a troubled expression. She stared at an embroidered box on a stone table as she sighed constantly.
The woman was princess Tai 'an of the Xi dynasty.
"Sigh, it's already been so long, yet I still haven't completed what Jianchen told me to do. W- what should I do?" Princess Tai 'an murmured. She stared at the box on the stone table in a rather dull manner as she was troubled.
"It's all my fault. I didn't think so much when I agreed to Jianchen's request. I thought it would be a piece of cake and that I could complete it easily. I never thought it would actually be so difficult. With aunt's temper, I probably can't take out the box before her. However, I've never found an opportunity with uncle, "Princess Tai 'an propped up her chin with her hands as she sighed powerlessly in the garden.
Now, the box had basically become a sore point for her. After all, she had promised Jianchen that she would never be able to rest easy unless she personally gave the box to the empress or the emperor.
"Hmm? Sister Tai 'an, why are you here alone? And why are you staring at the box in a daze? What's inside the box?" At this moment, a rather mischievous voice rang out from behind princess Tai' an.
A mischievous girl who only seemed to be fifteen or sixteen in palace robes stood behind princess Tai 'an. She had a faint smile on her face as her large, bright eyes looked around. They were filled with mischief and liveliness.
Soon after, she arrived in front of the stone table in a flash. She picked up the brocade box on the table and giggled, "Big sister Tai 'an, is the thing in the box a present that you prepared for Bing' er? Bing 'er is a little eager to see what this present is." As she spoke, the girl who called herself Bing' er opened the brocade box without any hesitation.
"Bing 'er, don't. This belongs to someone else," princess Tai' an reminded her, but it was already too late. Bing 'er had already opened the box.
Inside the brocade box, there wasn't any priceless treasure. There was only an extremely ordinary looking jade pendant.
Looking at the item in the brocade box, Bing 'er's expression froze. Her originally excited mood instantly turned into disappointment. She took the jade pendant in the brocade box and looked at it casually. Pursing her lips, she said, "What is this? It's just an ordinary jade pendant. Why would it need to be stored in such an expensive box? I thought it was something good."
"Bing 'er, how can you be so rude?" Princess Tai' an frowned as she complained to Bing 'er with great dissatisfaction. However, even though she was stern right now, there was a sliver of love for Bing 'er in her eyes.
As she said that, princess Tai 'an snatched the jade pendant from Bing' er and could not help but study it.
In reality, she had always been extremely curious about the item in the box.
After all, this was a gift that Jianchen had ordered her to personally give to the empress or the emperor. Without even thinking about it, she knew that the item inside was extremely important.
However, when princess Tai 'an looked at the jade pendant in her hand, she felt extremely doubtful and perplexed.
She could tell with a single glance that the jade pendant was nothing valuable. It was made of extremely ordinary material. It was something that no one would take an extra glance at in the imperial palace of the Xi dynasty.
The only thing that was worth looking at was that the patterns on the jade pendant were extremely exquisite. However, princess Tai 'an was rather confused by the two words' Xi Yu 'carved on it.
"Is this the item that Jianchen wanted me to personally give to aunt and uncle?" Princess Tai 'an became covered in cold sweat. At that moment, she felt extremely fortunate that Bing' er had opened the box and let her know what was inside beforehand.
Otherwise, if she really did give such an ordinary jade pendant to her aunt and uncle, it would truly be embarrassing.
Even if her aunt and uncle did not blame her, she would still be too ashamed to show her face.
"Xian 'er!" At this moment, a rather dignified voice rang out. The dignified empress appeared in the imperial gardens and slowly made her way towards princess Tai 'an.
"Ah, aunt!" Princess Tai 'an was alarmed. She turned around and looked at the empress who was slowly making her way over. Then she thought about how the opened box was still on the stone table. She immediately became rather flustered.
However, she seemed to have completely not realized that the jade pendant within the brocade box was still being held in her hand at this moment.
"Bing 'er greets the empress!" The girl who called herself Bing' er stopped being mischievous and bowed towards the empress politely.
She was not as composed as princess Tai 'an before the empress. Her face was filled with nervousness.
The empress looked at princess Tai 'an gently. Just when she was about to speak, she suddenly saw the jade pendant in princess Tai' an's hand.
