This was Yang Xuan's first trip as a representative of the Sacred Mountain, so he had to bring all the elites of the Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning with him.
The group set off. When they arrived at the dock, Yang Xuan happened to see Qing Jie.
He pondered for a moment, then said to Yu Jiu, "Invite Qing Jie here."
Yu Jiu took the order and left.
When Qing Jie arrived, she looked at Yang Xuan sitting in the middle with a complicated expression.
"Qing Jie greets the Azure Sky Holy Child!" After a while, she bowed.
Now that their statuses were so different, she had to be polite.
"Long time no see!" Yang Xuan said with a smile.
Qing Jie bit her lip and didn't say anything.
Yang Xuan chuckled as he asked, "Where are you going?"
Qing Jie didn't want to answer, but their statuses were too different. If she didn't answer, it would be disrespectful, and she would be punished according to the Holy Law.
Although she was a Holy Maiden, on the Sacred Mountain, the title didn't mean anything. What really represented one's status was the sequence.
Yang Xuan's sequence was so high that she couldn't even compare to him. Even if Yang Xuan wanted to kill her, she couldn't resist.
She had no choice but to frown and say, "Your Highness, I'm going to the Baiyue Nation in the north to carry out a mission."
"Baiyue Nation?" Yang Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
The Baiyue Nation was a small country within the territory of the Sunwheel Nation. It was indeed fate that brought them together.
Thinking of this, Yang Xuan said with a smile, "I'm going there as well. Why don't we go together?"
Qing Jie's frown deepened. She looked very reluctant, but since Yang Xuan had asked, she couldn't refuse. She had no choice but to agree.
The ship sailed over and Yang Xuan boarded the ship with the Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning guards. Behind him, Qing Jie also boarded the ship with two female attendants.
This was a ship that was even more luxurious and huge than the one that the Four Holy Sons had been on. Yang Xuan was surprised to find that this ship actually used mechanical power instead of human power.
Needless to say, it was also a product of the Artifact Hall.
Qing Jie and the others were also very surprised. Originally, with her sequence, it was impossible for her to ride a ship of this level. This time, she could be considered to have benefited from Yang Xuan.
After a short pause, the ship steadily sailed out of the dock.
The surface of the sea was misty and dense. A sea breeze with a fishy smell blew past, blowing at Yang Xuan's hair.
Standing at the bow of the ship and looking at the hazy sea, Yang Xuan could not help but sigh.
Recalling what had happened in the Yang Clan and Peaceful City, he was filled with emotions.
Once upon a time, that young and frivolous youth, that youth who would easily exterminate a person's entire family, had already reached such a stage.
He had matured.
I don't know where I've heard this saying:
When you are weak, your world will be filled with evil people.
When you are strong, your world will be filled with kindness.
This saying was perfectly interpreted by him.
Back then, when he was weak, everyone wanted to step on him. Along the way, it was very difficult for him. Therefore, he had no choice but to hate evil and seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
But now, his position had changed drastically. He had climbed to the top of the pyramid. Therefore, even though he was still killing people, there were very few people who dared to seek revenge on him.
"Your Highness, did you really kill people in the past?"
Just as Yang Xuan's imagination was running wild, Yu Jiu's voice came from behind him.
Yang Xuan could not help but laugh. Yu Jiu was a person of few words. For her to ask this question, it could be seen that she had been thinking about it for a long time.
"You can say that. I did kill a lot of people!" Yang Xuan did not turn around and said indifferently.
Yu Jiu was silent for a while and said, "They must have a way to die."
"Oh? Why? "Yang Xuan looked at her with interest.
Yu Jiu said expressionlessly, "If Your Highness wants to kill them, they must have a way to die."
Yang Xuan could not help but laugh. "That's not true. Among the people I killed, there were indeed people who had a way to die. But if you really want to think about it, there were some who were more innocent. That is undeniable."
Yu Jiu's expression was still cold, but she said a few more words. "Your Highness, are there any innocent people in this world? Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about the Xiao family in Bian City that Your Highness killed. Logically speaking, Xiao Minghui was the main culprit. The others may seem innocent, but Your Highness does not know that the Xiao family deliberately connived with Xiao Minghui's actions in an attempt to test him. That is the truth. "
Yang Xuan did not know this. In fact, with his style of doing things back then, he did not care if others were innocent or not.
Yang Xuan was not surprised that Yu Jiu knew what he had done. It would be strange if she did not know.
Yu Jiu continued, "Your Highness, in fact, there are still remnants of the Xiao family."
Yang Xuan was not surprised. He had destroyed the Xiao family. It was impossible that there were no survivors.
Yu Jiu continued, "The remnants of the Xiao family have been captured by us. They are imprisoned in the Sun Kingdom."
"Oh? When was that? "Yang Xuan asked.
"The day after you became the Son of Saint," Yu Jiu replied.
Yang Xuan shook his head. "Why did you capture them? Let them go. "
Yu Jiu replied, "The remnants of the Xiao family are in a strange state. Your Highness, you should go and see for yourself before making a decision."
Yang Xuan asked curiously, "How strange?"
"It is hard to describe. It is hard to say if it is them." Yu Jiu frowned slightly. She seemed very delicate.
Yang Xuan nodded. In that case, there was no harm in him going and seeing.
After Yu Jiu left, the ship continued to move forward. Yang Xuan did not want to enter the cabin. He stood at the bow of the ship.
There were experts from the Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning Guards around him. They stood with their backs to him. Their gazes formed a net as they watched the surface of the sea cautiously.
Although everyone knew that the Azure Sky Saint was a genius who had reached the Void God Realm and did not need their protection, no one let down their guard because of this.
This was their duty and their mission.
Since the day they became the four guards of the Azure Sky Saint, protecting the Saint had become their life's mission.
"Stop. If you take another step forward, you will be killed."
Yang Xuan was admiring the scenery when he suddenly heard a shout.
Along with this shout, a killing intent that was almost tangible shot up into the sky.
The killing intent formed by hundreds of people was not easy to deal with, not to mention that there were Semi-Divinity experts who were at the same level as Qing Jie.
Yang Xuan turned around and saw that Qing Jie's face was pale.
"Let her come over," Yang Xuan said indifferently.
The killing intent disappeared instantly, and the four guards who had stopped Qing Jie returned to their original positions.
Qing Jie walked over to Yang Xuan with an unsightly expression. She first gave a deep bow, before grumbling, "Your Highness is so impressive."
After she finished speaking, she realized that her words were very disrespectful, and her face turned even paler.
Fortunately, Yang Xuan did not mind. He smiled and said, "This is their duty. Don't mind it."
Although his voice was soft, the people on the ship were not ordinary people. Naturally, they could hear him.
The few guards who had stopped Qing Jie earlier did not have any expression on their faces, but they stood even straighter.
Qing Jie was stunned. She did not expect Yang Xuan to explain things to her. Moreover, there was a hint of gentleness in his words.
To her, this was a new experience that she had never had before.
At this moment, a strange emotion started to grow in her heart.
