136: Chapter 136 The Saint's True Form Appears

Yan Linfei's words were not without basis.

Yuyi pondered for a moment, then raised her head and nodded.

"Hmm! That makes sense. Let's wait here for a while then."

Her eyes flashed slightly, and she added softly, "I still have many things to ask him."

As the words fell.

Yuyi took out a banner wreathed in black Qi; it was none other than the ten thousand soul banner.

"You keep this ten thousand soul banner for him for now."

She then walked over to Xiahou Yun's side and shoved the banner into her hands.

Xiahou Yun nodded in understanding and carefully put the ten thousand soul banner away.

...

A day passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside a hidden cave deep within the Phantom God Forest.

The ground was scattered with many torn robes, a complete mess.

"Zhi Yan, was it necessary to tear my clothes to shreds?" Xiang Tian scanned the chaotic mess on the ground, feeling quite helpless.

However, this Dual Cultivation had allowed his cultivation to advance by one level.

The flush on Princess Zhou Zhiyan's face had not yet faded, but she had already changed into a clean, simple robe.

She was sitting on a blue stone, looking slightly listless, her Aura somewhat unstable.

"How could I wait? I was about to explode from the Spiritual Qi."

Xiang Tian sat down beside her and gently took her hand.

He said softly, "Zhi Yan, I know your strength is formidable now, but if you want to chain me in the imperial palace to be your Empress, I would rather die than submit."

Princess Zhou Zhiyan shook her head.

Shedding her sharp edge, she transformed into the demeanor of a young girl.

She leaned her head gently against his shoulder.

"No, I've thought it through. I shouldn't trap you in this small corner of Tianyun Kingdom; your future ought to be much broader. Perhaps one day, your name will resound throughout the entire continent."

Xiang Tian was stunned, not expecting such a transformation in her.

He squeezed her hand and said seriously.

"That's right, I was meant to roam the world. Only when I am strong enough can I protect you and everything you wish to protect."

This was no empty talk; after all, he possessed the System and had his own confidence.

"Mm, I believe you." Princess Zhou Zhiyan nodded obediently.

Xiang Tian could always bring her miracles.

Such rare and unattainable treasures as the dragon blood flower and sage grass.

He could produce them at will; these were definitely not comparable to ordinary fortuitous encounters.

Xiang Tian's eyes carried a smile as he blinked gently.

"By the way, Zhi Yan, you aren't still thinking about laying a hand on my other women, are you?"

He hadn't forgotten the harsh words Princess Zhou Zhiyan had spoken back at the Princess Mansion.

Princess Zhou Zhiyan shook her head quickly.

"Rest assured, I certainly won't make things difficult for your women; on the contrary, I will protect them for you."

Xiang Tian remained silent, understanding in his heart.

This was the difference between having had intimate relations or not.

Regardless of how arrogant or boastful Princess Zhou Zhiyan had been before.

Right now, in front of him, she was just his woman.

He stood up and carried Princess Zhou Zhiyan horizontally.

He said softly, "Alright, I, Xiang Tian, will never let you down in this life."

After speaking, he walked out of the cave while carrying her.

...

Yan Linfei was pacing back and forth, her expression growing increasingly anxious.

"It's been a whole day, why haven't they returned yet?"

"Lin Fei, it's not like you don't know what they went to do." Xiahou Yun's cheeks flushed slightly.

Among the women present, only she had shared intimacy with Xiang Tian.

"The medicinal power of the dragon blood flower is overbearing and won't dissipate for a while."

Yuyi looked toward the depths of the forest, her brows slightly furrowed.

She was still puzzled, "Junior Sister, is Xiang Tian really just an ordinary Disciple from the Haotian Sect? How could he have such a rare Spirit Medicine as sage grass in his hands?"

"Xiang Tian…"

Xiahou Yun's mind instantly conjured up Xiang Tian's appearance, and her cheeks became even hotter.

She said softly, "Senior Sister, I can't see through him either, but I can feel that he is sincere toward me."

"Oh? Since you know I am sincere toward you, why do you always think of rejecting me?" A playful voice suddenly came.

Everyone looked toward the sound.

They saw Xiang Tian walking over slowly while carrying Princess Zhou Zhiyan, his expression relaxed.

Xiahou Yun caught a glimpse of the person in his arms, and her eyes instantly dimmed, as if grit had been rubbed into them.

"Hmph! You ask why I reject you? What is that you're holding in your arms?"

Xiang Tian was speechless, unable to refute for a moment.

He and Xiahou Yun were originally an engaged couple, but through a twist of fate, he had relations with her younger sister, Xiahou Yu.

Later, he became entangled with Jin Lian, Duanmu Hongdie, Xiang Yuanyuan, Yan Qingyu, and others.

He was originally a traditional person.

But having lived a second life and possessing the System, he had gained more confidence and was unwilling to refuse beauty.

Having finally lived again, why suffer through the days?

"Xiao Yun, I…" Xiang Tian put down Princess Zhou Zhiyan.

"I can only say I'm sorry." He didn't want to over-explain; right and wrong were already clear.

Xiahou Yun turned her face away and walked to the side, her voice filled with a hint of loneliness.

"Xiang Tian, you and I haven't formally bowed in marriage yet, so I have no right to control you. Just be clear about what you are doing."

Out of sight, out of mind; she really didn't want to argue in front of everyone.

Xiang Tian sighed helplessly; if this matter wasn't handled properly, it would become a joke.

He quickly followed Xiahou Yun and pulled her into his arms from behind.

"How do you have no right to control me? I want you to control me for my entire life. I'll make it up to you later; I will definitely spend three days and three nights of intimacy with you."

"You lecher!" Xiahou Yun's cheeks turned bright red.

She struggled twice but didn't actually push him away.

Xiang Tian chuckled and reached out to pinch her delicate cheek.

"If I become Emperor in the future, I will make you Empress."

"Who wants to be your Empress?" Xiahou Yun retorted verbally.

She leaned her head against his chest.

She shoved the black banner into Xiang Tian's hands.

"You must really want this, right!"

Xiang Tian looked at the ten thousand soul banner in his hand, feeling heavy at heart.

How heartbroken would Duanmu Hongdie be if she knew about this ten thousand soul banner!

She had to face it eventually.

He then put the ten thousand soul banner away.

"Junior Sister, you two stop being lovey-dovey; we need to set off and leave the Phantom God Forest as soon as possible." Yuyi's voice came at the right time.

The two looked at each other and quickly separated.

Yuyi turned to Ouyang Qing.

"Second Junior Sister, do a headcount of the Ouyang Family's people; don't leave anyone behind."

"Yes, Senior Sister!" Ouyang Qing replied and immediately began to count the people.

Everyone packed up and was about to set off.

A cold, aged voice suddenly came from behind.

"Where are you all rushing off to?"

Xiang Tian and the others' hearts sank, and they all frowned and turned around.

They saw a familiar elderly figure flying through the air, his Aura vast and peerless.

It was none other than the Third Elder of the Tyrant Blade Sect.

The one who had come this time was not his Clone, but his true form!

Everyone's expressions changed drastically; even if they joined forces with all their might and supplemented it with all their treasures.

They would definitely be no match for the true form of the Third Elder of the Tyrant Blade Sect.

"Xiang Tian, you sure have a tough life; I haven't been able to kill you after so many attempts." The Third Elder landed, his eyes sinister like blades.

"My Tyrant Blade Sect has lost a multitude of experts to hunt you down; it's time to settle this account!"

As the words fell, the Third Elder's Aura surged out like a torrential river.

It oppressed everyone, causing their breathing to hitch.

That terrifying pressure, just a casual palm strike.

Would be enough to wipe them all out; a sense of crisis instantly enveloped the entire scene.

Just as the Third Elder raised his hand to strike.

Several figures arrived together.

"Senior, stop!"

Xiang Tian and the others looked up, and their hearts immediately relaxed.

The newcomers were the Old Ancestors of the Tianyun Kingdom.

"Old Ancestors!" Qin Batian bowed and saluted first, his voice excited.

"Old Ancestors!" Xiang Yuan, Princess Zhou Zhiyan, and others also saluted in unison, their expressions respectful.

The Third Elder raised an eyebrow, his tone disdainful.

"Oh? So it's a few old things from the Tianyun Kingdom."

He swept his gaze over the Old Ancestors, his tone filled with contempt.

"You should know that every level of the Saint Realm is a chasm. Although you are all in the Saint Realm, you are only at the first level of the Saint Realm. Are you sure you want to stop me?"

The Old Ancestors frowned deeply, their expressions grave.

What the Third Elder said was true; they could still dominate within the borders of Youzhou.

But once they left Youzhou, they couldn't be considered top-tier experts.

Facing the Third Elder, who was at a higher level of the Saint Realm, they were indeed struggling.

Ancestor Zhou stepped forward and looked directly at the Third Elder.

He said in a deep voice, "Senior, what will it take to let them leave?"

"Oh? You are the Old Ancestor of the Zhou Family?" The Third Elder looked him up and down, his tone playful.

"Tell me, what ability do you have that can make me stop?" Although he didn't strike immediately, he showed no intention of backing down.
