Jianchen advanced cautiously in the manor and began to approach the center of the manor. Although Jianchen knew in his heart that it was very likely that he had been exposed, he still had to take back the White Tiger. This was because this was the child that Rum Guinness had entrusted to him. He absolutely could not allow anything to happen to the White Tiger in his hands.
Tonight, the manor was especially quiet and at the same time, it was also very dark. Even the guards patrolling at night were very rare. Jianchen wore a black tight suit and used the cover of the night to silently move like a ghost towards the large attic in the center of the manor. He had to find out the whereabouts of the White Tiger from the owner of this manor.
Just as Jianchen approached the attic in the center, suddenly a familiar cry faintly entered his ears. This was the "Wuwu" cry of the White Tiger.
Hearing the cry of the White Tiger, Jianchen's face was overjoyed. He originally thought that it would take a lot of effort to find the White Tiger's trace, but he didn't expect that he would find it so easily.
At this moment, the attic suddenly became brightly lit. A large amount of lighting equipment and candles illuminated the large attic in red.
"Jianchen, you really came. Let's see where you can escape to this time." An old voice came from the attic. Just as the voice fell, a large group of people walked out from inside.
The person leading the group was an old man wearing a white robe. He had white hair and a youthful complexion with a kind face. It was the third elder of the Shi family. Behind him was a group of high ranking members of the Huang Pu family. The White Tiger was in the arms of the head of the Huang Pu family.
"Wuwuwuwu, wuwuwuwu …" Upon seeing Jianchen, the White Tiger in the arms of the Huang Pu family immediately became happy. A pair of bright eyes without any impurities stared closely at Jianchen. Its mouth let out a hurried cry, and a pair of short limbs struggled in the arms of the Huang Pu family, as if it was very unwilling to be in the arms of the Huang Pu family.
Seeing that he had been discovered, Jianchen no longer continued to hide and calmly walked out from the dark corner.
The Huang Pu family sized up Jianchen. Currently, Jianchen's appearance was still that of a thirty year old youth and was not his original appearance.
"Could this person be the person that the City Lord and this respected Lord are looking for?" The Huang Pu family's head secretly guessed.
Jianchen calmly looked at the Huang Pu family's head and said, "Return the White Tiger to me."
The Huang Pu family's head did not pay attention to Jianchen. Instead, he turned to look at the third elder of the Shi family. Although he was the head of the family, he clearly knew that he had to listen to the orders of this old man in front of him.
The third elder of the Shi family calmly looked at Jianchen and said, "Jianchen, my tolerance for you has reached its limit. You better obediently return the item to our two families. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite. Although you are very fast, you obviously won't be able to last long. You won't be able to escape."
Jianchen looked at the third elder of the Shi family and chuckled, "I'm afraid that if I return the King Armament to you, you will use it against me in the next moment. I'm not that stupid. If you want the King Armament back, do it yourself."
"You're courting death!" The third elder of the Shi family's face was gloomy. He had already lost the patience to persuade Jianchen. A green light flashed and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Jianchen. He directly sent a palm strike filled with Saint Force towards Jianchen's chest.
Although Jianchen's speed was very fast, he was still only an Earth Saint Master. The third elder of the Shi family did not even bother to take out his own Saint Weapon.
The moment the third elder of the Shi family made his move, Jian Chen also made his move. He used the Heaven's Fortune Art and the Illusory Flash at the same time. His body left behind an afterimage as if he had teleported and appeared in the hands of the patriarch of the Huang family. He took the little white tiger back in one move and then stomped his feet on the ground, escaping with lightning speed.
A surge of energy came from behind. The third elder of the Shi family once again sent a palm strike towards Jianchen's back with the force of a thousand catties.
"Pfft!" Jianchen spat out a mouthful of blood and disappeared into the night with his injured body.
The third elder of the Shi family let out a long howl to the sky. In the silent night, his howl was like a clap of thunder that spread through the entire city. He then immediately rose into the air and chased after Jianchen with a green light flashing around his body.
The other seven Heaven Saint Masters guarding the surroundings of Bright Sun City heard the howl of the third elder of the Shi family and were all pleasantly surprised. They then rose into the air one after another and just like that, they hovered in the air and watched everything that happened below, preparing to ambush Jianchen at any time.
As a result, no matter where Jianchen fled in, as long as he left the city, he would be stopped by a Heaven Saint Master.
A moment later, the sound of something tearing through the air could be heard from afar. The eyes of the Cai family's eldest brother slightly narrowed as he stared ahead with a sharp gaze. All he saw was a black shadow rapidly approaching him at an unbelievable speed.
The fourth elder of the Cai family immediately let out a long howl and used a secret signal to tell the others to start pulling in the net. He then took out his Saint Weapon and with a thought, the fire element in the surroundings began to rapidly gather around his Saint Weapon. With a wave of his hand, he shot out a sword Qi that was over twenty meters long. It was so hot that it seemed to be able to burn the air as it shot towards the fleeing black shadow below.
Jianchen, who was fleeing with all his might towards the city gates, sensed the sword Qi shooting towards him from the sky. His expression immediately changed. He then stomped his feet on the ground and leapt up from the street. He jumped onto the roofs of the buildings on both sides of the street and ran out of the city without slowing down at all.
"Boom!" The huge fiery red Sword Qi struck the street below. Following a violent explosion, the exploding flames lit up the sky. Violent energy ripples wreaked havoc in the surroundings, and the surrounding buildings were instantly destroyed as if they were tofu. The entire street was in a mess, and at the place where the Sword Qi had struck, there was a huge crater with a diameter of ten meters and a depth of over twenty meters.
Jianchen's expression became extremely solemn. From this attack, he could tell that the person who had shot out the sword Qi was actually much stronger than the ancestor of the Heiyun clan.
The Cai family's eldest son, who was hovering in the air, was surrounded by flames. He was like a meteor that streaked across the sky and landed in front of Jianchen. He then opened his left hand and the temperature in front of him rapidly rose at an unbelievable rate. Very soon, the space in front of him became a sea of fire. The roaring flames seemed to be able to burn the air. Just by spreading through the air, the residual heat was enough to melt steel.
Heaven Saint Masters were already able to control the energy of the world. The Cai family's four elders were able to control the fire element in the surroundings, forming a sea of fire that was over five hundred meters long and a hundred meters tall in front of him.
Jianchen growled. Surging Saint Force erupted from his body, forming a barrier of energy around him. At the same time, he used the Illusory Flash and the Heaven's Fortune Art at the same time. He charged towards the sea of fire at an extremely high speed. That was the only way out of the city he had to pass.
At this moment, three more fiery red lights lit up in the distance. They were like three meteors that left three long trails in the night sky. The three Heaven Saint Masters closest to the area were already rushing over.
At this moment, Jianchen had already charged into the sea of fire. The sea of fire was over a hundred meters tall, forming a barrier in front of him. There was no place for him to use as a stepping stone. Jianchen could not leap over, so he could only choose to charge through.
The temperature in the sea of fire was extremely high. As soon as Jianchen entered, his barrier of Saint Force immediately shattered. His clothes began to rapidly burn, and even his head became bald. His eyebrows, eyelashes, and everything else were all burned away.
Jianchen endured the heat that seemed to be even more intense than lava and tried his best to charge out of the sea of fire at full speed.
"Boom!"
At this moment, an earth-shattering sound suddenly rang out, and the entire sea of fire suddenly exploded. Flames shot out in all directions, illuminating the entire pitch-black sky red. Countless people in the entire city who had fallen into a deep sleep were awakened one after another.
Jianchen was extremely heavily injured in the sea of fire. He spat out a few mouthfuls of blood before charging out of the sea of fire with great difficulty. He fled from the city.
The eldest brother of the Cai family panted heavily as he hovered in the air. His face was pale as he sighed, "I almost died from exhaustion after using such a large-scale Wildfire Spell. Although I didn't manage to keep you here, I still managed to heavily injure you. I believe you won't be able to get far with your injuries."
At this moment, the other three fiery red lights arrived beside the eldest brother of the Cai family. They were the other three brothers of the Cai family. One of them asked in a rather urgent tone, "Brother, where is he?"
"He fled in that direction. Let's go after him."
The four brothers of the Cai family immediately chased after him. Before long, a faint azure light suddenly appeared behind them. It overtook the four brothers of the Cai family at double their speed, chasing in the direction that Jian Chen had vanished in.
Jianchen was currently heavily injured. Although he was moving very quickly, he was unable to reach his peak speed. Over an hour later, Jianchen arrived in a forest and finally stopped to rest. He then looked at the White Tiger in his arms. Since Jianchen had been protecting the white tiger the entire time, the white tiger was not injured at all.
Blood dripped from the corner of Jianchen's mouth as his breathing became rather ragged. He had already used up two-thirds of his Saint Force. It was very difficult for him to escape the pursuit of the eight Heaven Saint Masters.
At this moment, a faint green light flashed in the distant sky. The third elder of the Shi family with his wind attributed Saint Force had already chased after Jianchen.
Jianchen sighed inside. It seemed that he would not be able to escape today. He reached out his hand and gently stroked the White Tiger in his arms. He felt extremely ashamed. He had promised Rum Guinness that he would take good care of her child, but now that he was in such a situation, he no longer had the ability to take care of her child.
Jianchen found a large tree and punched a large hole in the base of the tree. After comforting the White Tiger, he placed the white tiger into the hole in the tree and used some branches to block the entrance. He then turned around and immediately left, fleeing into the distance.
Jianchen continued to flee. He finally stopped when he was a hundred kilometers away from the White Tiger. He sat on the ground and gasped for breath, waiting for the Heaven Saint Masters to arrive. Now, he had already given up on escaping. The third elder of the Shi family followed closely behind him. He was unable to shake off the third elder, who was heavily injured in the sea of flames.
