Chapter 200: New Female Lead: Dark Son of Heaven Di Hanzhi! The Identity of Xuan Tianjun!
(5 updates!!! Begging for auto-subscription!!!)
At this moment, Di Zhentian had already left.
Yin Suyun could not help but look toward the Empress and say, "Not kill him on the spot? They're still inside the relay station." The Empress shook her head and said, "No. There are too many Ninth Grade grandmasters around Di Zhentian. If we fail to capture him, it could lead to Luo Tianjian's death."
Xu Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry. I planted a Death Mark inside Di Zhentian's body.
If something happens to Luo Tianjian, then when the time comes, something will definitely happen to Di Zhentian as well." Yin Suyun said worriedly, "These people from the Immortal Empire have never kept their word. I'm afraid this time is no different." The Empress said calmly, "There's no use saying so much. With Tianjian captured, we're still on the back foot." Xu Chen asked curiously, "Why did Luo Tianjian rush over to Bian Sai?" Bu Fengshuang said, "Rumor has it a Secret Treasure appeared at Bian Sai, and they say it's a precious sword, so he went. Only what no one expected was that he ran into Di Zhentian and the others, who were also searching for the Secret Treasure. Then, with fewer people he couldn't beat more, and so he was captured just like that."
Xu Chen nodded upon hearing this and said, "Your Majesty, leave this matter to me. I will bring him back safely."
He did this to repay the Empress's kindness, and it was also something he could do along the way; it was not for Luo Tianjian's sake. Yi Bingrou looked toward the Empress and said, "Your Majesty, Bian Sai has been rather turbulent lately. Aren't we sending anyone over?"
Yin Suyun agreed and said, "Well said. If it's true, then even if we cannot obtain that Secret Treasure, we cannot let the enemy nation get it."
The Empress, while massaging Xu Chen's shoulders, nodded and said, "That makes sense. Chen, I'll have to trouble you to make this trip."
Xu Chen said, "When do I leave?" The Empress said, "Tomorrow."
That evening, Xu Chen received a message from Zhao Qingyun.
Xu Chen's Divine Sense sank into the Jun Tian Mask, and he then entered the Nine Heavens Space.
He looked down below and saw that Nine Heavens had gained one more person.
Zhao Qingyun said, "The newly joined Zhu Tianjun is specifically in charge of Nine Heavens' dark side and has recently made tremendous contributions."
Xu Chen nodded: "Welcome aboard."
He knew who Zhu Tianjun was, but he would not casually expose it.
Zhu Tianjun let out a slightly hoarse feminine voice: "I recently detected that there really is a Secret Treasure at the Tianzun Dynasty's Bian Sai."
Zhao Qingyun nodded: "Zhu Tianjun personally went over to investigate, and I accompanied her. We indeed sensed a special aura."
Xu Chen asked: "What kind of Secret Treasure?"
Zhu Tianjun shook her head and said: "It can't be confirmed for now. It feels like a Ninth Grade weapon, but it also resembles a Ninth Grade Pill."
You Tianjun also spoke up: "May I ask Jun Tianjun, should we go?" Xu Chen nodded: "Go. If you have nothing on hand, everyone go take a look." The Heavenly Monarchs cupped their fists and said: "Yes!"
Xu Chen asked Zhao Qingyun: "How goes the search for the remaining two Heavenly Monarchs?"
Zhao Qingyun said: "Not completely confirmed yet, but the Heavenly Secret shows that the eighth Heavenly Monarch will appear at Bian Sai this time."
Xuan Tianjun deliberated and said: "Recently, the country where I am has encountered a small problem. I wonder if any Heavenly Monarch can help me out. The required strength is roughly Ninth Grade; Ninth Grade Initial Stage should be enough." Hao Tianjun asked: "There are many countries on Dalu. Which one are you in, Xuan Tianjun?" Xuan Tianjun replied: "The Immortal Empire. My younger sister has contracted a terminal illness and has been having frequent flare-ups recently.
I haven't found a way to cure it completely, only a method to alleviate it, but it requires another Ninth Grade cultivator's help. Among those present, would any of you be willing to act?"
Once these words were spoken, the crowd in Nine Heavens immediately fell into silence.
After all, making a move like this would mean exposing one's own strength.
In an organization like Nine Heavens, exposing one's own strength was not a wise move.
Xu Chen said lightly: "I'll go. It just so happens I'm heading to the Immortal Empire tomorrow. I'll contact you when I arrive." Xuan Tianjun, upon hearing this, was overjoyed: "Many thanks, Jun Tianjun. I will certainly remember Jun Tianjun's kindness in my heart."
Xu Chen said calmly: "As the head of Jun Tian, it is only right that I help."
He also knew this Xuan Tianjun's identity—one of the Immortal Empire's Princes, Di Cangqiong, who was at odds with Di Zhentian.
In the original work, he was a male second lead, and back then he actually had a decent relationship with Ye Xuan.
Originally, it should have been Ye Xuan who went this time, after all, with Ling Zunzhe helping.
But this time, Ye Xuan did not speak up, nor showed any intention of speaking up.
Under these circumstances, he had to step forward.
This Xuan Tianjun's younger sister was a Princess, Di Hanzhi, one of the female leads.
Because of her illness, this Princess had a frail body, weak and delicate, as if she would collapse at the slightest touch. But in fact, she was the Immortal Empire's Dark Son of Heaven, cultivating Death Qi, and her Cultivation Method was a Saint Grade one, the "Purgatory Death Soul Sutra."
What is a Dark Son of Heaven?
It is an Emperor who stands above the Immortal Empire's publicly known Son of Heaven, commanding all dark aspects, with overwhelming authority.
In other words, this Princess actually held more power than her father, the Emperor.
Even her strength had long reached Ninth Grade Perfection, approaching a One-Turn Martial Saint.
Above Ninth Grade is Martial Saint; above Martial Saint is Martial Emperor.
But the Martial Saint's strength divisions are a bit different, split into One Turn to Nine Turns.
0...... Begging for fresh flowers......
A Martial Saint's Spiritual Qi is continuously compressed. After Nine Turns, a qualitative change occurs, merging with heaven and earth, achieving Martial Emperor.
A single finger from a Martial Emperor could casually slay a hundred Martial Saints.
No matter how formidable this Princess was, her terminal illness was indeed real.
At this moment, theoretically, she only had one month left to live. In her previous life, she was saved by Ye Xuan.
