Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 244

Chapter 244: Chapter 244: Crown Prince of Four States
 

The Elder at the late stage of the tenth layer of the Saint Realm was in so much pain that he couldn’t speak.

He opened his mouth, trying to say, he had already declared he was from the Sky-Stepping Sect, yet you’re still bombing?

Yang Xiaotian came to the second Elder.

The second Elder’s face was deathly pale, and he quivered, “I was sent by the Subduing Dragon Sword Sect.”

Subduing Dragon Sword Sect!

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian threw another punch.

The sound was still like thunder.

The other two Elders were so scared that their hearts almost leaped out of their chests.

Yang Xiaotian approached the two without any expression on his face, then unleashed the Asura Force on each in turn.

After Yang Xiaotian unleashed ten waves of Asura Force, the faces of the four Elders at the tenth layer of the Saint Realm had all turned multi-colored.

The four individuals were from the Sky-Stepping Sect, Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, Ancient Divine Palace, and Mahakala Divine Sect, respectively.

Yang Xiaotian was not surprised that the Sky-Stepping Sect, the Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, and the Ancient Divine Palace sent people to kill him, but he was surprised that the Mahakala Divine Sect also sent someone.

After all, he had no significant conflict with the Mahakala Divine Sect.

Could it be that the Mahakala Divine Sect had already found out that Chen Lingyun, Zhang Hao, and the other two were killed by him?

Yang Xiaotian watched coldly as the four were ravaged by the Asura Force.

The Elder sent by the Sky-Stepping Sect at the pinnacle of the tenth layer of the Saint Realm was named the Barefoot Elder Demon.

This man was both righteous and evil, famous for many years, and a figure that struck terror into the hearts of experts from all sects. It was unexpected that he was now employed by the Sky-Stepping Sect.

From the Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, they had sent the Master of Assassin Tower, Tian Zhengyi, a late stage Saint Realm expert who ranked second on the Divine Dragon Empire’s list of assassins, just below the King of Netherworld.

It was unexpected that the Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, just to kill him, had hired Tian Zhengyi to do the job.

Assassin Tower had immense influence. As the Master of Assassin Tower, Tian Zhengyi hadn’t taken action himself in many years, but each of his moves came with an exorbitant price.

The ones sent by the Ancient Divine Palace and the Mahakala Divine Sect to kill him were known as the Thousand Snakes Sword Master and the Blood Prison Blademan, both of whom were feared figures.

The Thousand Snakes Sword Master was the current Manor Lord’s Elder Ancestor from the Thousand Snakes Manor, while the Blood Prison Blademan was a loner, his blade techniques were incredibly sophisticated, and the very sight of his blade brought forth a blood prison.

Both were mid-stage powerhouses of the tenth layer of the Saint Realm. Their strength may not be as great as the Barefoot Elder Demon and Tian Zhengyi, the Master of Assassin Tower, but they were nonetheless formidable.

After all, the Elder Ancestor Jiu Wu from the Subduing Dragon Sword Sect was only at the initial peak of the tenth layer of the Saint Realm.

Just as Yang Xiaotian was about to unleash the eleventh wave of Asura Force, the Barefoot Elder Demon pleaded with a crying tone, “Please, stop bombing, okay?”

Okay?

Looking at the Barefoot Elder Demon’s tearful plea, Tian Zhengyi, the Thousand Snakes Sword Master, and the Blood Prison Blademan all similarly begged with a crying tone for Yang Xiaotian to stop bombing them.

“If you keep bombing us, we’ll die,” the Barefoot Elder Demon said with a trembling voice. “We’ll really die.”

Yang Xiaotian took out an Elixir and said, “This is a Control Elixir that I refined. Swallow it.”

The Barefoot Elder Demon looked at the Elixir in Yang Xiaotian’s hand, his face changed, and he hesitated.

Seeing the hesitation, Yang Xiaotian directly unleashed another Asura Force blow.

The Barefoot Elder Demon was in so much pain that tears streamed from his eyes.

Yang Xiaotian then looked at Tian Zhengyi.

Tian Zhengyi’s face underwent a drastic change, and he dared not hesitate, “I am willing.”

Yang Xiaotian threw the Elixir to him, and Tian Zhengyi swallowed it without hesitation.

Subsequently, the Thousand Snakes Sword Master and the Blood Prison Blademan each swallowed the Elixir one by one.

At last, Yang Xiaotian’s gaze fell once again on the Barefoot Elder Demon, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

The Barefoot Elder Demon, not daring to hesitate again, swallowed Yang Xiaotian’s Elixir.

Of course, the four of them submitted to Yang Xiaotian not just out of fear of the devastation wrought by the Asura Force, but also because of the Iceflame Kylin and the Azure Thunder Python.

Who were the Iceflame Kylin and the Azure Thunder Python? They were two Super Divine Beasts!

These were beings even the Sky-Stepping Sect and those from the Imperial Capital would be wary of, and yet now they were willing to follow Yang Xiaotian.

It was for this reason that the four also willingly submitted to Yang Xiaotian.

Seeing the four submit, Yang Xiaotian’s expression eased slightly.

Then he took out four black battle robes for the four to wear and had them put on ghost-faced masks, following behind him as they continued flying towards the Imperial Capital.

In their flight to the Imperial Capital, Yang Xiaotian learned from the four that the Barefoot Elder Demon had not submitted to the Sky-Stepping Sect. He had met with the Sky-Stepping Sect Master Lin Yu a few times, and the latter had found him and promised him a great treasure to enlist his services.

The Thousand Snakes Sword Master and the Blood Prison Blademan had also agreed to take action only after receiving great treasures from the Ancient Divine Palace and the Maha Divine Sect.

“Young Master, rest assured, I will return the item to the Sky-Stepping Sect when the time comes,” the Barefoot Elder Demon quickly assured. “After that, I will cut all ties with the Sky-Stepping Sect and have no further relations with them.”

Tian Zhengyi, the Thousand Snakes Sword Master, and the Blood Prison Blademan also quickly assured him.

The night was tranquil.

It was already evening.

Yang Xiaotian did not stop to rest, but continued riding the Black Flood Dragon King, leading the four Great Ancients towards the Imperial Capital.

Earlier, the four Great Ancients had been tortured by the Iceflame Kylin and the Azure Thunder Python and were seriously injured. On the way, Yang Xiaotian gave each of the four a few drops of the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.

Looking at the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, they immediately felt that even if they were tortured several times by the Asura Force, it was worth it.

After swallowing a few drops of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, it was like they had taken some sort of ultimate remedy. Soon, their waists no longer ached, their legs stopped hurting, they walked with vigor, and even their stomach pain disappeared.

Quickly, their injuries had largely healed.

The sky grew lighter.

As Yang Xiaotian neared the Imperial Capital, riding the Black Flood Dragon King with the four Great Ancients, inside the Imperial Capital, Guo Hong was leisurely chewing on a Spirit Fruit, leading his subordinates to the Green Lotus Tavern out of sheer boredom.

Seeing Guo Hong lead his subordinates to the Green Lotus Tavern for drinks and merriment, Wu You, a disciple of Wang Zhou, hurried over with a large group of Empire Alchemy Hall experts from the opposite end of the street.

Arriving in front of Guo Hong, Wu You bowed, smiling ingratiatingly: “I am Wu You, Senior Executor of the Divine Dragon Empire Alchemy Hall. My teacher is the Great Elder Wang Zhou, the next Hall Master of the Alchemy Hall. Knowing that His Highness the Crown Prince requires the supreme Supreme Pure Jade Elixir Pill, he specially sent me to deliver ten pills to His Highness.”

Guo Hong lifted his eyelids slightly, signaling his subordinates to accept them: “Wang Zhou, is it? I’ve noted it. Anything else?”

Still bowing with a smile, Wu You continued: “Your Highness, you wanted to challenge a Martial Ancestor disciple of our nation, but could not find a suitable opponent. Perhaps there is one person in whom Your Highness might be interested.”

“Who?” asked Guo Hong casually, continuing his walk towards the Green Lotus Tavern.

Wu You followed behind and said, “Yang Xiaotian!”

At the mention, Guo Hong smirked: “The one reputed to have condensed a Divine Elixir? I know him. A year ago, he just broke through the Martial Ancestor Realm, right? Seems he was cultivating in the True Dragon Secret Realm?”

Seeing that Guo Hong didn’t take Yang Xiaotian seriously, Wu You hurriedly said: “Your Highness might not be aware, but Yang Xiaotian has already emerged from the True Dragon Secret Realm. I received information that he seems to be rushing towards the Imperial Capital.”

“His relationship with Princess Qingxuan is not shallow. He is most likely coming for Your Highness.”

Upon hearing this, Guo Hong laughed: “If he’s really coming for me, that’s suicidal! Then, I’ll crush him to death!”

Wu You immediately added: “Your Highness should not underestimate him. Yang Xiaotian previously purchased the sixfold Tribulation Thunder Water. If he cultivates with the aid of the Tribulation Thunder Water and True Dragon Qi, his current cultivation level is likely not weak. Moreover, he has condensed a Divine Elixir.”

Guo Hong said with disdain: “What of the Divine Elixir? He’s just an eleventh-level Martial Soul. I can break both his legs with just one hand!”
