424: Two attendants to the emperor!

Above the floating clouds, a flying boat as vast as a mountain was slowly approaching Holy Heaven City.

This flying boat was entirely black, shaped like a shuttle, and incredibly fast.

Traversing the Nine Heavens, roaming all seas!

This was the secret treasure of the Four Domains Immortal Great Sects, the Sky-Flying Shuttle!

In a place like the Inner Sea, it had never been seen before!

On this flying boat stood hundreds of figures, each clad in black profound armor, exuding a dense aura. If a Cultivator were to see them here, he would surely cry out in shock.

Every black profound armored Cultivator on this flying boat possessed a Realm no lower than Heavenly Phenomenon Realm eighth-level!

Their strength was terrifying!

This lineup alone, if placed in the Inner Sea, would be capable of sweeping through numerous sects!

Of course, what was most astonishing on this flying boat was not the hundreds of Heavenly Phenomenon Realm eighth-level profound armored Cultivators.

Rather, it was the two middle-aged men standing on the flying boat.

These two middle-aged men had Perfection Divine Qi, eyes like ancient Dragons, and although they did not reveal any aura, their every movement seemed to merge with heaven and earth, containing a profound rhythm.

If a powerful Cultivator were to see these two, he would realize that they were both Golden Body Realm experts!

Moreover, they had already progressed a great distance in the Golden Body Realm, making it impossible to discern their true depth.

However, these two Golden Body Realm Cultivators stood like ancient trees behind a young man.

On the entire flying boat, only this young man sat casually on a large chair.

“Emperor's Companion, we have arrived.”

At this moment, one of the middle-aged men behind the young man spoke softly.

The young man sitting on the chair slowly opened his closed eyes.

His eyes were as deep as the sea, yet also seemed to be filled with countless stars, divine light flickering, bright, clear, and ethereal!

“Are they all dead?”

His gaze swept towards the distant sea, and myriad profound Dao Patterns appeared in his eyes, as if tracing everything that had happened here in the past.

This was a Divine Ability, tracing back time, which naturally was not something a Golden Body Realm Cultivator like him could do.

But within Divine Abilities, there were methods of deduction, profound and unfathomable, capable of deducing past events based on certain specific substances.

The sea area before him was where Feiyun Island of the Sacred Heaven Sea Region was located.

However, the once mighty and enormous Feiyun Island had been completely wiped out by Elder Yun of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Feiyun Island had vanished, but everything that happened here still left traces.

A hundred thousand miles of blood sea, filled with a bloody stench, countless corpses lay submerged in the seawater. From their attire, it was not difficult to see that these Cultivators who died here included members of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Star Sea Gate, Nine Profound Demonic Sect, and also many Loose Cultivators.

All of this was now replayed before the eyes of this mysterious young man.

“Elder Yunlan of the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Thirteen Stars of the Star Sea Gate, and a Golden Body Realm Elder from the Nine Profound Demonic Sect, interesting.”

“To be able to kill so many people before I arrived, he indeed has some strength.”

The young man slowly spoke.

His words indicated everything that had happened here, but what he saw in his eyes was missing a segment.

That was, who exactly killed these experts, in how much time were they killed, and how many people made a move?

This segment of the scene seemed to have been forcibly erased, and even his deduction Divine Ability failed to deduce it.

“Emperor's Companion, who was responsible?”

One of the middle-aged men behind the young man asked cautiously.

The scene before him was indeed shocking, but in the eyes of this middle-aged man, it was nothing special.

With his cultivation at the Peak of Golden Body Realm sixth-level, he could also do it!

The prerequisite was that the person who made the move possessed terrifying strength like his!

The young man shook his head and said, “The person who made the move is very strong. He erased the scene of his actions, and even I couldn’t see it.”

“It seems this trip to Holy Heaven City will be much more interesting than I imagined.”

“Besides Nangong Shang of the Eastern Extreme Divine Cult, perhaps there will be other unexpected gains.”

Nangong Shang of the Eastern Extreme Divine Cult, this name might be unknown in the Inner Sea.

This was because the Inner Sea was too closed off, a paradise for villains, very different from the mainstream Cultivator world of the Four Great Domains.

Information from outside rarely reached here, and news from the Inner Sea rarely spread to the Four Great Domains.

But among the people of the Four Great Domains, there was not a single person who did not know Nangong Shang's name!

A thousand years ago, Nangong Shang participated in the competition for Emperor's Companion, and together with Sikong Wuji of the Hunyuan Immortal Palace, he suppressed numerous Prodigies!

Becoming one of the two Emperor's Companions a thousand years ago!

And this young man before them was the other Emperor's Companion, Sikong Wuji of the Hunyuan Immortal Palace!

“Emperor's Companion, Holy Heaven City is treacherous. First, an unknown Never Look Back Merchant Guild appeared, and now a mysterious force has emerged. It would be better to observe from outside for a while and not rashly enter Holy Heaven City.”

The middle-aged man speaking was named Long Hui, and the other middle-aged man was named Fei Lian. Both of them were Sikong Wuji's personal Protectors!

Ever since Sikong Wuji became the Emperor's Companion, they had guarded him all the way. They were Dao Protectors specially chosen by the Hunyuan Immortal Palace to protect Sikong Wuji!

Dao Protectors at the Peak of Golden Body Realm sixth-level, one can imagine how much the Hunyuan Immortal Palace valued Sikong Wuji!

In Long Hui's opinion, any factor unfavorable to Sikong Wuji must be investigated thoroughly first.

He absolutely could not allow him to face any risk.

This was his mission!

Even if he himself died, Sikong Wuji could not be harmed.

“Long Hui, this is not your style. Are you afraid?”

Sikong Wuji glanced at him, and Long Hui felt an irresistible pressure, his whole body burning uncontrollably, as if about to melt under that gaze.

“Emperor's Companion, this subordinate would not dare!”

Cold sweat streamed down Long Hui's face. This was Sikong Wuji's displeasure!

Though his words were light as a cloud, his gaze already represented everything.

“Emperor's Companion, the great battle on Feiyun Island might be related to Shen Tianxing, after all, this is his territory.”

Seeing this, Fei Lian quickly steered the conversation towards Shen Tianxing.

Like Sikong Wuji, Shen Tianxing, who had become famous at a young age, possessed extraordinary talent, rarely seen in the world!

Otherwise, Sikong Wuji would not have given up on continuing to sweep through the various Forbidden Grounds of the Inner Sea and specifically come to Holy Heaven City after learning of Shen Tianxing's deeds.

He was eager to meet this Shen Tianxing.

Sikong Wuji heard this, withdrew his gaze, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

There hadn't been many people who piqued his interest in the past thousand years; Nangong Shang, the Emperor's Companion of the Eastern Extreme Divine Cult, was one, and they had always been rivals.

Now, there was another Shen Tianxing.

“So be it.”

“Holy Heaven City is not far. Let’s go to Holy Heaven City first. I am a bit impatient to meet that young man.”
