The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter seemed to be separated by a thin veil, preventing Xiao Chen from seeing through her.
Fluttering over, fluttering away.
However, Xiao Chen was already used to it. As he watched her leave, he said, "This Senior Sister of yours is really strange. It's just a few steps away, yet she still asked you to send me off. Clearly, she could have done it herself."
Chu Xiang said softly, "That's how senior apprentice-sister is. There are many times when you want to show concern for someone, but because of your status, you can't completely put down your airs. She could only ask me to do this on her behalf. You can just treat me as your Senior Sister. There's no difference. "
"Isn't this unfair to you? You're just like a shadow."
"Hehe, there's no such thing as fairness or unfairness. We grew up together and are like sisters. How could I possibly fuss over such things?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. "Doesn't that mean you've seen her true appearance?"
Even if one felt the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter's appearance, one could clearly see it. However, the scene that appeared in his mind was always separated by a thin layer of fog. It was extremely strange.
Basically, everyone who saw the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter would be curious about her.
Chu Xiang smiled and said, "Of course I have. Actually, you have seen it too. However, Senior Sister is currently cultivating Heart Force. Those who have not grasped Heart Force will not be able to retain her appearance in their hearts. "
Heart force!
Xiao Chen had some understanding of Heart Force. The Scarlet Blood Pirate King had comprehended Heart Force. Furthermore, he had used his peerless talent to write the Heavenly Heart Art, which allowed people who could not comprehend Heart Force to use their Soul Energy and Quintessence to create a simplified version of Heart Flame.
One could not cultivate Heart Force; one could only rely on comprehension ability. The Scarlet Blood Pirate King comprehended it only after advancing to Divine Vein Realm.
This Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter actually comprehended Heart Force at such a young age. This was truly shocking.
"This is a secret. No one else knows about it. I can tell you everything that I know. However, I truly do not know what sort of existence is behind the Divine Golden Dragon bloodline. "
Chu Xiang shrugged, indicating that she was indeed unable to help.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed. He smiled and said, "It's fine. I'm already here. There's no need to send me off."
"Alright, see you tomorrow. If you're not in a hurry to leave, we can continue to spar. "
"Alright."
At night, the blood moon hung high in the sky, and there were no stars in the sky.
Aside from the blood moon, there were no stars in the Desolate Sea's night sky.
Just as Xiao Chen was about to sleep, he suddenly recalled the brocade box he obtained during the day.
The key to the Immortal Palace!
"Let's see what it is first."
Xiao Chen took out the brocade box, opened it, and immediately saw an ancient key shaped like a sword. There were some fine handwriting on the key. Xiao Chen took a closer look.
When he saw that the inscriptions were actually divine characters, he gave up on the idea of continuing to look at it.
Divine characters could not be memorized or read. The special recipe for Heartburn was a simplified version derived from the divine characters.
Only by holding the animal bone in his hand could he read and memorize it.
"I wonder what use it has? Is the Misty Immortal Palace related to immortals? "
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Chen was still clueless. Thus, he placed it back into the brocade box before placing it back into his storage ring.
Looking at the blood moon outside the window, he lay on the bed and let his imagination run wild for a while before he gradually fell asleep.
--- When a thick layer of clouds covered the blood moon, outside the Heavenly Fragrance's residence:
A figure covered himself up so tightly that only a pair of eyes could be seen.
This figure looked at the sky and took out a talisman.
After the talisman burned, his figure started to turn immaterial until it completely vanished.
This was very similar to the Void Talisman that Xiao Chen and Jiang He used in the Yanwu Dynasty's Soaring Dragon City.
After the figure immaterialized, the black figure silently passed through the many restrictions of the Heavenly Fragrance's residence. Then, he entered Xiao Chen's courtyard.
In the dead of night, no one expected that someone had already sneaked into Xiao Chen's courtyard.
Furthermore, that person arrived at Xiao Chen's bedroom. After the black figure entered the bedroom, his figure slowly revealed itself.
However, that person seemed to have another treasure on him.
It was similar to the Death God Mask, isolating his aura, making it hard to detect.
The black figure's gaze locked on Xiao Chen's storage ring, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. Then, he formed hand seals with both hands and took out a palm-sized astrolabe. As the astrolabe spun, his Soul Energy immediately turned into thousands of strands that slowly seeped into Xiao Chen's storage ring.
The infiltration process was extremely difficult. Furthermore, he did not dare to startle Xiao Chen.
The black-clothed man appeared to be cautious and extremely patient. An entire hour passed, and he did not move at all.
"Success!"
A strand of Soul Energy finally succeeded in seeping into Xiao Chen's storage ring.
Then, the black-clad person closed his eyes and did his best to recall what the brocade box that the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor gave Xiao Chen looked like.
After a while, the black-clad person's Soul Energy detected a spot of bright light in the pitch-black storage space.
The bright light disappeared in a flash. However, in this one-thousandth of a second, the black-clad person's Soul Energy quickly wrapped around it.
The black-clad person pulled, and an incredible scene appeared. The brocade box in Xiao Chen's storage ring actually appeared in the black-clad person's hand.
Joy flashed in the black-clad person's eyes as he quickly opened it in excitement.
However, the instant the black-clad person opened the brocade box, the Ethereal Immortal Palace key flew away from his eyes.
The black-clad person saw that Xiao Chen had woken up at some point in time, firmly grasping the Ethereal Immortal Palace key.
The black-clad person cursed in his heart. Then, he turned around and left through the window, not lingering at all.
However, Xiao Chen was no slower than the black-clad person.
The black-clad person turned into a flash of lightning and instantly gave chase.
"Whoosh!"
After revealing himself, Xiao Chen snorted coldly and instantly drew his Tyrant Saber.
A saber light lit up the night sky, firmly locking on to this black-clad person.
Damn it!
The black-clad person discovered that he could not dodge this saber strike. Helpless, he could only turn around and send out a palm strike.
The palm light and the saber light clashed. In that instant, the courtyard supported by the formation shook somewhat.
They were also on the verge of collapse, continuously stirring up commotion.
"Boom!"
It was also at this moment that the Heavenly Fragrance Palace, which was originally pitch-black, suddenly became brightly lit, as bright as day.
More than one hundred Heavenly Fragrance disciples appeared from the various pavilions, charging at the black-clad person with weapons in hand.
"Dodge!"
With Xiao Chen delaying him, the black-clad person looked like he was about to fall into an encirclement. So, he roared, no longer suppressing his strength.
The black-clad person unleashed his aura, erupting with startling and terrifying might. Then, he sent out a mountain-like palm image.
Before the many Heavenly Fragrance disciples could close in, this person's palm strike knocked them back.
It looked like this black-clad person was about to flee.
Just as Xiao Chen was about to give chase, a figure descended from the tallest pavilion in the residence. This figure looked like an immortal and knocked this person back.
After suffering this attack, the black-clad person's aura weakened significantly. Clearly, he was severely injured.
"Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter, you are actually so strong!"
The strength that the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter burst out with seemed extremely surprised, shock flashing in his eyes.
"However, you still can't stop me!"
As the black-clad person spoke, his body started to fade into nothing, slowly fading away.
"Void Image Talisman?"
The Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter frowned slightly. In the end, she was too late. When Xiao Chen discovered this person, he had already activated the Void Image Talisman.
However, the Holy Daughter was not willing to let this person off.
Her figure soared up and gave chase under the moonlight.
The Void Image Talisman had a time limit. This person could not remain hidden forever. As long as he revealed some clues, she would have a chance to catch him.
"Xiao Chen, are you alright?"
Chu Xiang asked out of concern as she arrived beside Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and replied softly, "I'm fine. If he wanted to kill me, I would have died already. That's why he came."
"The Ethereal Immortal Palace key?"
Xiao Chen nodded. "Fortunately, I left a mark on this key during the day. The instant he opened the brocade box, I noticed it."
Even so, Xiao Chen still felt some lingering fear.
This person came to his room without a sound. If he really wanted to kill him, he would not be able to do so.
If he really wanted to kill Xiao Chen, it would be hard to say whether he could survive or not.
It looked like he could not let down his guard even though he was in the Heavenly Fragrance's residence. He could not be so lucky every time.
"Sorry, I nearly killed you. To think that this person even dared to barge into the Heavenly Fragrance's residence!"
Chu Xiang said somewhat apologetically.
"It's fine."
Xiao Chen entered deep thought, finding this strange. Who could this person be?
The Ice-Snow Mountain Manor's Ye Han?
The Heavenly Slaughter Sect's Wang Yun?
The Blood Flame Sect's Pei Shaoxuan?
Or perhaps the Profound Heaven's Holy Son, Wenren Yu?
Many candidates appeared in Xiao Chen's mind. All of them were suspicious, but he could not match them up.
It was even possible that none of these people were Xiao Chen.
It looked like some people's desire for the Ethereal Immortal Palace key far surpassed his expectations.
This person even dared to barge into the Heavenly Fragrance's residence. He wondered if the Heavenly Fragrance's Holy Daughter could catch up to him.
