High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 754

Chapter 754: Chapter 400: Clashing of the Royal Family! Li Yuan Takes Action_3
 

“`

The remote attack of a Demigod, though not nearly as powerful as close combat, could easily exterminate the common Flying Heaven Beasts.

If there were few in number, it would even serve as practice for Jiang Xuan, whose swordsmanship Might was astonishing, but she clearly lacked battle experience.

The group traversed through canyons, shuttling over tens of thousands of kilometers.

“Xu Yuan, according to the map, we are not far from the Outer Realm.” Jiang Xuan said: “If you are willing, you can follow me until the end of the trial. You were just captured; there is no need for you to participate in this kind of battle.”

“Mhm.” Li Yuan nodded. It didn’t matter where he stayed.

After such a long time, Li Yuan had some judgment in his heart. Jiang Xuan was likely a genius of the Abyss Country’s Royal Family with not a long Cultivation Time, of certain status but probably not the core of the Royal Family.

“Li Yuan, a large group of troops is approaching, among them are Demigods,” Gu You’s voice echoed in Li Yuan’s mind.

“Huh?” Li Yuan’s heart stirred.

Soon, at the other end of the canyon, a slight tremor traveled through the air, and quickly, a Void Warship appeared before everyone’s eyes, revealing a massive structure with dense crowds of figures standing on its deck.

“There are quite a few of them.” Li Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly: “All at least Flying Heaven Peak Warriors, three Demigods?”

Such a force was the strongest Li Yuan had encountered in the Abyss Demon Blood Den.

Li Yuan wasn’t the least bit worried.

However, on the warship, the burly man and a few other Soldiers, their expressions changed: “Not good, it’s Jiang Lei’s team, let’s go.”

Jiang Xuan’s expression turned serious as well.

Whoosh! The burly man, Uncle Guo, maneuvered the warship, and its speed began to rapidly decrease, trying to fly in the opposite direction, but this took time.

That’s when,

Boom! That distant warship picked up speed suddenly, shockingly fast, like a massive trail of firelight, rushing towards Jiang Xuan’s warship.

“So fast,” the burly man’s face changed. This speed was faster than his full effort in maneuvering the warship.

Clearly, on the other warship, there might very well be a Demigod who has comprehended the True Meaning of Wind.

Li Yuan, witnessing this scene, was also quite surprised. The speed of a Demigod Level Warship was extremely astonishing; even under the incredible binding pressure on the Jue Xing Continent, it could reach about four kilometers per second.

Take note that on Blue Star, Flying Heaven Peak Experts could nearly reach 3 kilometers per second in flying speed, while Demigods generally could exceed seven kilometers per second.

But on the Jue Xing Continent, the normal flying speed of a Flying Heaven Peak Expert was less than 1 kilometer per second.

In less than ten seconds, the massive warship had already blocked the path of Jiang Xuan’s warship.

Boom! The warship began to forcefully decelerate.

“Haha, isn’t this the noble Jiang Xuan? Why are you running away from me like a mouse from a cat?” This sneering voice, amplified by Origin Power, echoed through the canyon.

The massive warship’s deck cleared out, and a young man in Silver Armor stepped out from the crowd. His features were bewitchingly handsome and he wore a purple-gold crown, his status seemingly very high.

At his side, apart from the Armored Warriors, there were three figures exuding powerful auras, each looking indifferent, gazing down at Jiang Xuan and her group.

“Jiang Lei, what do you want to do?” Jiang Xuan’s expression changed, cold as frost.

She did not expect to encounter this enemy.

“What would I dare to do to you? My respected Jiang Xuan,” the Silver Armor youth showed a ferocious smile, his words laced with mockery: “Your father was a Peak of Pseudo-God, reigning over a whole province… Oh, I almost forgot, your father has been dead for ten years.”

“Hahaha, that Mist Mountain King had dozens of children, but it looks like you didn’t inherit much wealth or treasures. Venturing into the Abyss Demon Blood Den, you only have a single Demigod Level protector by your side,” the Silver Armor youth’s eyes were cold, his words filled with disdain.

“Jiang Lei!” Uncle Guo, the burly man, finally exploded in anger, roaring: “Even the Mist Mountain King is not immune to your criticism.”

Daughter of the Mist Mountain King? A hint of surprise flashed through Li Yuan’s mind, and he glanced at Jiang Xuan.

According to the information he had gathered, royal members of the Void God Realm in Abyss Country were usually granted the title of marquis.

Those royal family members who were granted the title of a king were very rare and were mostly extremely powerful beings among Divine entities or those who had made great contributions.

As for non-royal Pseudo-Gods, even being ennobled as a marquis was difficult.

“Get lost!”

“Jiang Xuan, is this how you teach your subordinates?” the Silver Armor youth’s face turned icy, revealing a hint of murderous intent: “We’re only discussing facts, it’s not as if it’s slander. My father is Marquis Shadow Edge, how about it, Jiang Xuan, does your Demigod servant intend to convict me?”

“This kind of servant should be killed!” the Silver Armor youth was full of killing intent.

“Jiang Lei, my subordinate was in the wrong, I apologize to you on his behalf,” Jiang Xuan said resolutely.

She knew of Jiang Lei’s ruthless character.

If all three of her Demigod guards were present, she wouldn’t fear him, but now only Uncle Guo remained. With the situation against them, she chose to bow her head.

“Your Highness, I’d rather die than…” the burly man’s eyes turned red.

“Shut up, Xu Guo, have I indulged you too much? You won’t even listen to my orders?” Jiang Xuan’s face was full of anger, and she yelled sternly: “When we return to the Royal Capital, I will punish you severely.”

The burly man was stunned.

“Tsk!”

“Jiang Xuan, stop putting on a show in front of me,” Jiang Lei sneered venomously, his eyes cold as those of a snake: “Back then, you captured me and hung me in the Hundred Treasures Tower for three days and nights, making me lose all my face… I will never forget it in this lifetime.”

“Today is the day I wash away the disgrace,” Jiang Lei fixed his gaze on Jiang Xuan: “Your father is dead, and in this Abyss Demon Blood Den, your elder brother can’t save you.”

“You dare to kill me?” Jiang Xuan’s face grew colder, realizing there would be no peaceful resolution, she no longer pretended.
