"Brother, I know you don't want to cause too much trouble. The reason you came to the Martial Palace is to entrust your friend to me, then you can run away. However, the Martial Saint Dynasty is everywhere in the Eastern Continent. There is nowhere to run. Since you saved my life, I'll protect you even if it costs me my life."
Wu Jiu said with an extremely solemn and sincere tone.
"Alright, I'll go with you to the Martial Saint Dynasty."
Jiang Chen nodded his head and decided to go with Jiang Chen to the Martial Saint Dynasty. As the Martial Saint Dynasty was the ruler of the Eastern Continent, Jiang Chen would have to come in contact with it sooner or later. Today, he might as well go there first. With Wu Jiu around, he could at least guarantee his safety. Even if something unexpected happened, Jiang Chen would have his own means to deal with it.
"Let's go!"
Wu Jiu leaped into the air and flew towards the Martial Saint Dynasty. Jiang Chen followed closely behind him. After a few steps, he caught up with Wu Jiu. The two of them flew side by side, and left Mount Wufu in the blink of an eye.
Along the way, the two of them flew as fast as lightning. Wu Jiu intentionally lowered his speed, fearing that Jiang Chen wouldn't be able to keep up with his pace. However, when he saw Jiang Chen's calm and composed expression, as if he wasn't struggling at all, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Although Brother Jiang's combat strength is extraordinary, there is still a huge gap between him and me. I didn't expect his speed to be so fast. I'll increase my speed a little more and see if he can catch up with me."
Wu Jiu revealed a faint smile. Without hesitation, he increased his speed, leaving Jiang Chen behind in the blink of an eye. However, before Wu Jiu could feel proud of himself, Jiang Chen had already caught up with him.
"Brother Jiu, why don't we compare our leg strength?"
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
Wu Jiu was stunned. Jiang Chen actually wanted to compare leg strength with him? This was simply asking for a beating.
"Alright, let's compare our speed. Let me see how fast a genius like you can be."
Wu Jiu said with a straightforward expression. Jiang Chen was only a Peak Divine Core warrior, while he was a Peak Combat Soul warrior. There was a gap of one whole realm and three small realms between them, this was a gap that couldn't be closed. Wu Jiu didn't believe that Jiang Chen could catch up with him.
Swoosh …
Thus, at the end of the distant horizon, two figures whizzed past like meteors. These two figures, one in front and one behind, occasionally alternated positions, leaving behind a long stretch of afterimages.
"Brother, the identity you used just now was actually able to stir up the airflow in the air! Looks like I've underestimated you! Your speed is actually comparable to mine! Once you break through to the Combat Soul realm, I'm afraid your speed will immediately surpass mine!"
Wu Jiu said with a shocked expression. His words were filled with undisguised praise.
"Brother Jiu's cultivation is recovering at an amazing speed. I believe it won't take long before you become a real Combat King warrior."
Jiang Chen said with a smile. Wu Jiu had now returned to his peak condition, and was half a step away from the Combat King realm. All he needed was an opportunity, and he would be able to reach the heavens with a single leap. However, this was not an easy step to take.
Jiang Chen had once taught Wu Jiu how to cultivate the Dao of War, but it looked like Wu Jiu didn't take it seriously. If he had, he would have broken through to the Combat King realm by now. But, Jiang Chen didn't say anything about it. In the path of cultivation, one had to rely on themselves to find out the truth. With Wu Jiu's talent, sooner or later, he would understand the crux of the matter.
As for speed, Jiang Chen could be said to be unparalleled in this world. Although the Nine Phantom Wolves was a combat skill he used in battle, it also helped him a lot in terms of speed. The most important thing was the Spatial Shift skill. Just now, Wu Jiu felt that Jiang Chen had stirred up the airflow, and it was because Jiang Chen had used the Spatial Shift skill. Without the support of the Spatial Shift skill, with Jiang Chen's current cultivation, it would be impossible for him to catch up with Wu Jiu, who was a peak Combat Soul warrior.
In order to truly unleash the power of the Spatial Shift skill, one would need to break through to the Combat King realm and comprehend the Spatial Force. In his previous life, Jiang Chen had used the Spatial Shift skill to travel the world, and no one could compare with his speed.
In the past, Jiang Chen's proudest battle was when he was still a peak Combat Emperor. He had used the Spatial Shift skill to escape from the pursuit of three Minor Saint warriors.
The distance between the Martial Palace and the Martial Saint Dynasty wasn't very far. With Wu Jiu and Jiang Chen's speed, it would only take them half an hour to arrive.
The Martial Saint Dynasty was the super overlord of the entire Eastern Continent, and its status was unshakable. Looking from afar, the Martial Saint Dynasty looked like a colossal monster that occupied an area of over a thousand miles. It was filled with magnificent palaces, and even the most ordinary buildings here were filled with a noble aura.
Grand, magnificent, noble, and luxurious!
This was the best description for the Martial Saint Dynasty. Just by standing outside the Martial Saint Dynasty, one would be able to feel the lofty aura of this dynasty, and it would make one feel impressed by it.
"Brother, this is the Martial Saint Dynasty, the most noble and central place in the entire Eastern Continent. What do you think?"
Wu Jiu pointed at the Martial Saint Dynasty and said. His voice was filled with pride.
"Not bad indeed, it has the aura of an imperial family."
Jiang Chen nodded his head. If it was any other ordinary young man who came to the Martial Saint Dynasty, he would have been impressed by the aura of the Martial Saint Dynasty, and wouldn't be able to say a single word.
However, in Jiang Chen's eyes, the Martial Saint Dynasty was too luxurious, but lacked a strong foundation. Although the buildings here were top-notch, when compared to those super powers in the Divine Continent, the gap was obvious. The Martial Saint Dynasty couldn't compare with the Martial Saint Dynasty's profound foundation. Some ancient sects with a long history had Saints guarding them, and a single strand of their Saint Aura could drive the entire sect.
"Let's go, we'll meet the Imperial Emperor."
Wu Jiu stepped into the sky and started walking toward the Martial Saint Dynasty.
"Who's there? How dare you fly in the sky above the Martial Saint Dynasty?! "
A loud shout suddenly sounded out. After that, dozens of light pillars shot into the sky, and dozens of guards wearing golden armors blocked Wu Jiu and Jiang Chen's path. The man leading the group seemed to be in his thirties or forties, and he had a majestic appearance. His cultivation base was actually at the Early Combat Soul realm.
The leader had an imposing aura, but when he saw the man's face, fear and trepidation immediately emerged on his face. Without daring to show any hesitation, he bowed deeply toward Wu Jiu and said, "I didn't know the Ninth Emperor would be back, please forgive me."
"Alright, I won't blame you."
Wu Jiu waved his hand and brought Jiang Chen with him as he flew toward the group of guards. The dozens of golden guards immediately bowed toward them, not daring to show any hesitation.
In the Martial Saint Dynasty, even ordinary Combat Soul warriors weren't allowed to fly. In this place, there weren't many who had the privilege of flying, but Wu Jiu was one of the few who had the privilege of flying. He was the Ninth Emperor, and no one dared to offend him.
"These are the Martial Saint Dynasty's Golden Guards, all of them are elites. Each Golden Guard has to go through a life and death trial before they are allowed to join. Many geniuses from the Martial Palace have joined the Golden Guards after leaving the Martial Saint Dynasty."
Wu Jiu explained.
"Indeed, they are a powerful group of guards."
Jiang Chen nodded his head.
"The number of powerful warriors in the Martial Saint Dynasty is not something you can imagine. The Golden Guards are the benchmark of the Martial Saint Dynasty. Even geniuses from the Martial Palace have to go through numerous tests before they can join the Golden Guards. Lang 'er is one of the Golden Guards, and the current commander of the Golden Guards is the Crown Prince."
Wu Jiu explained.
"The Imperial Emperor's son?"
Jiang Chen asked casually.
"That's right, the Crown Prince is the true number one genius of the Martial Saint Dynasty. He is only thirty-five years old, but he has already reached the Late Combat Soul realm. Now, he is in charge of the Golden Guards, and is the best candidate to become the next Imperial Emperor."
When mentioning the Crown Prince, Wu Jiu couldn't help but praise him.
Martial Saint Palace!
It was the central palace of the Martial Saint Dynasty, the place where all meetings were held. Wu Jiu brought Jiang Chen straight to the entrance of the Martial Saint Palace. Even after arriving at the entrance, Wu Jiu didn't stop walking. Instead, he flew up a few dozen stone stairs that were made with high quality stones and arrived at the Martial Saint Palace's main palace.
The Martial Saint Palace was decorated with gold and jade, and it looked extremely magnificent. In front of the palace, there were two thick and luxurious dragon pillars that were over thirty meters tall. Each of the dragon pillars had a valiant Golden Dragon carved on them. The dragon heads were facing outwards, and they looked extremely lifelike.
At the very front of the Martial Saint Palace, there was a huge Golden Dragon Throne that was emitting a dazzling light. Right at this moment, a man was sitting on the Golden Dragon Throne. He looked about the same age as Wu Jiu, and he looked like he was in his forties. He was wearing a Golden Dragon Robe that had a huge Dragon Head, and a dazzling crown on his head.
This man had a chiseled face, and a heroic aura could be sensed from between his brows. He didn't look angry, but he gave off an awe-inspiring aura. Just by sitting there, he made people want to worship him. This man was the Martial Saint Dynasty's Imperial Emperor, one of the true superpowers of the Eastern Continent.
When Jiang Chen entered the palace, he immediately laid his eyes on the Imperial Emperor. This was the strongest warrior he had ever met since his reincarnation. With his senses, he could sense the spatial ripples around the Imperial Emperor. This was the transformation of the Spatial Force; this was a true Combat King warrior.
Besides the Imperial Emperor, there were a dozen other men standing in the palace. All of them were wearing luxurious clothes, and they were emitting noble auras. Jiang Chen knew six of them, they were the men from the Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect who were yelling outside Mount Wufu yesterday. As for the rest of them, he didn't know any of them, but all of them were Late Combat Soul warriors. Furthermore, those who were able to come here all had noble identities, none of them were ordinary men.
Jiang Chen didn't know any of these men, but he could sense undisguised hostility from their eyes. This caused Jiang Chen to furrow his brows. He really hated this kind of inexplicable hostility.
