183: Chapter 183 Whose Rescue?

"If you hand over that sword and the Legacy now, I can make the decision to spare your life!"

"Otherwise, I can't guarantee what they will do!"

Chen Xian snorted coldly.

"You know what? The kind of hypocrite I hate the most is exactly your type! You're the one doing all the bad things, yet you still pretend to be the good person, constantly 'giving me chances'!"

"A venomous woman like you, are you even worthy of being the Young Miss of the Mo family?"

"It must be hard pretending to be an innocent woman, isn't it?"

Chen Xian's words...

...seemed to rip open the scar Mo Hongyu least wanted to remember.

...caused an extremely unpleasant expression to appear on Mo Hongyu's face.

"It seems you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit."

Mo Hongyu's face darkened.

"You all know what to do, right?"

The man beside her cracked his knuckles.

He sneered coldly, "Of course we do."

A group of people charged madly towards Chen Xian.

They had long coveted the Fearless Sword Saint's Legacy.

The reason they hadn't acted before...

...was because Mo Hongyu hadn't given the order.

Now that Mo Hongyu had personally spoken...

...they naturally pounced on Chen Xian like starving wolves.

Chen Xian didn't hesitate either.

He drew the Fearless Sword from his waist.

With just a single sweeping slash!

The powerful sword energy cleaved directly towards the group in front of him!

The vast and overbearing Sword Qi forced those charging forward to either retreat hastily or block with their Magic Treasures.

Chen Xian fought while retreating.

The Moon Demon clung to his shoulder.

"I say, who exactly did you contact earlier?"

"There are Nascent Soul and Soul Transformation Stage experts among them."

"It seems you don't have such strong allies around. Especially since there are two Mahayana Stage experts on the other side!"

"Unless... you called that Cook!"

Chen Xian shook his head.

"Of course not. But, just wait and see!"

Seeing Chen Xian's unperturbed expression...

...the Moon Demon said nothing more.

In its view, the Fearless Sword in Chen Xian's hand was both an opportunity for a Sword Cultivator and a hot potato.

Right now, if Chen Xian could get out of here alive, all would be well.

Otherwise, whether it was Feng Haishan or these people from the Mo family...

...none would let him off easy!

Killing him to silence him would be the lightest treatment.

Chen Xian said smugly, "Now we just have to wait. That person will definitely come."

At the same time...

...in the North Continent palace.

Li Zhen stood respectfully before a person.

His attitude was devout, his tone humble.

"Saint's Envoy, what holy decree is there this time?"

The man in white said indifferently, "After that Lord performed divination, it was discovered that a descendant of the Divine Phoenix Clan, which was exterminated back then, still remains. She is within your North Continent's borders, and her fate is being quietly rewritten. You are to capture her!"

Li Zhen looked up.

"And then?"

"Kill her."

To this, Li Zhen nodded silently.

Just killing one person...

...and a North Continent native at that...

...was a trivial matter for him.

The man in white extended a finger.

"I give you only one month. If she is not dead, then there is no need for you to exist either."

After saying this, the man in white left.

Li Zhen stared at the spot where he had vanished.

A sharp, cold expression appeared on his face.

Hmph!

Saint's Envoy!

Merely a lackey running errands for the Saint across the Five Continents.

How dare he swagger and bluster before me!

Once he broke through to the Quasi-Saint level and became an Immortal Emperor...

...then he would have much more confidence facing the Saint.

Why would he need to be the lowly trash at the Saint's feet?

The more he thought about it, the more furious Li Zhen became.

He *had* to capture that ant, Chen Xian!

Just at that moment!

An Embroidered Uniform Guard rushed over in a panic.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This subordinate has urgent news to report!"

Li Zhen's face was expressionless.

"What is it?"

"Just now, Li Da's communication jade pendant suddenly activated!"

"A voice came from the pendant, saying he was Chen Xian, and asking us to save him quickly!"

A trace of ferocity appeared on Li Zhen's previously calm face.

"Is this true?"

"This subordinate would not dare deceive Your Majesty!"

Li Zhen strode forward.

"Take me there at once!"

Five minutes later.

Li Zhen stood in the headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

He listened repeatedly to the voice transmitted by the jade pendant.

"Li Da has been missing without a trace since entering the Shanhai Secret Realm. It's clear this pendant was taken by Chen Xian!"

"Your Majesty, should this subordinate lead a team to investigate?"

"No. This time, I will go myself!"

From Chen Xian's tone, he could hear the urgency.

Of course, the main reason was that he didn't dare gamble!

If Chen Xian was truly in danger and was killed...

...the Immaculate Sacred Body would also vanish!

Or be taken by someone else.

Just thinking about failing to break through to Quasi-Saint, failing to become an Immortal Emperor...

...and instead cowering like a grandson before the Saint's Envoy...

...a ferocious look appeared on Li Zhen's face.

He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.

Li Zhen pinpointed the location.

He tore open the Void Realm himself and leaped directly into the spatial rift.

By the time the space before him had closed again...

...the Embroidered Uniform Guards were all dumbstruck.

"T-This... I've never seen His Majesty act so frantically for anyone before!"

"It seems His Majesty truly dotes on this newly appointed Marquis Who Guards the North!"

"Indeed. It seems we should give the Marquis Who Guards the North less trouble in the future!"

Secret Realm.

Chen Xian was dashing through the forest.

By now, the people chasing him were all showing expressions of anxiety and impatience.

They had started with the mentality of toying with and playing cat-and-mouse with Chen Xian.

But now, they had grown to hate this man with gnashing teeth.

After all, they had wasted quite a bit of time.

At present, they had completely lost their patience.

They wished they could just kill Chen Xian outright.

However, every time they surrounded Chen Xian, this man would manage to break through their encirclement.

After several times...

...these people's patience had worn thin.

The looks they shot at Chen Xian were filled with a desire to immediately cut him down.

"When exactly are your reinforcements coming?"

The Moon Demon said cautiously, "If those two Mahayana Stage experts finish their fight... then I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to escape."

"I know that, of course. But when that person will arrive, I'm not sure either."

"However, once he comes, dealing with these people will be absolutely no problem."

Right at that moment.

A powerful aura surged forth.

Chen Xian's heart leapt with joy.

Could it be that person had arrived?

However, the voice that followed was hoarse and cold: "What a bunch of useless trash! Taking this long and still failing to handle a mere Golden Core Stage brat!"

The look of pleasant surprise on Chen Xian's face gradually froze.

Instead, it was Mo Hongyu who was overjoyed.

"Elder Wu! Feng Haishan..."

Thud!

A round head rolled onto the ground.

Everyone looked.

It was none other than Feng Haishan's head.

Elder Wu's expression was icy as he said, "This old man thought that after dealing with this fellow, you would have already secured that sword. Yet you're still dawdling here!"

"Elder Wu, we will definitely succeed!"

As Mo Hongyu said this, a trace of vigilance appeared on her face.
