Chapter 1737 A Piece of Advice
Quan Xiao struggled hard, desperately resisting the icy energy that continued to spread to every corner of his body. The dark energy gushed out of his half-frozen body incessantly, accompanied by his agonizing howl.
A God Emperor was an existence that stood at the pinnacle of the Divine Realm, and any of them could easily turn the world upside down. Not to mention the peak God Emperor like Quan Xiao.
As he unleashed all of his power, the starry sky trembled violently, and the surrounding space distorted crazily as if the world was about to come to an end.
Xian An was unaffected by everything around her. She exerted more strength into the icy sword, causing the layer of frost on Quan Xiao's body to expand rapidly.
Quan Xiao's body below the neck was now encased in ice. His bones, organs, meridians, blood, and even his swelling god emperor's power had been entirely sealed.
"You are quite tenacious." Xian An gave a compliment. "But it isn't enough."
Buzz—
Just as Xian An was about to land a finishing blow, several willow vines abruptly emerged from the void and rushed towards her.
Xian An glanced at them briefly and curled her lips. "You are finally coming out, huh?"
As she spoke, her aura erupted violently.
Bang!
An ice crystal exploded, hurling Quan Xiao's massive body through a cloud of powdery ice. His frozen body cracked and burst into ice particles, leaving only his head flying a great distance away.
At the same time, all the willow vines were directly blasted away by Xian An's explosive aura.
A female figure emerged from the depths of the starry sky, gazing at Xian An. She was none other than Chun Yue, Ren Yuan's maidservant.
"I have to admit that Your Excellency is remarkably strong." Chun Yue spoke calmly as she glanced at Quan Xiao's head. Unfortunately, she couldn't save Quan Xiao's life.
The icy sword in Xian An's hand turned into ice powder as she looked at the newcomer and asked curiously. "Aren't you a native here? Why do you want to help this creature?"
"My name is Chun Yue, a faithful maidservant of the reigning ruler of the Divine Realm, the Heavenly Desolate God Emperor. With Your Excellency's strength, I would like to extend an invitation for a tea session on behalf of my master." Chun Yue responded.
Hong Hualian frowned deeply. She had no idea about Xian An's identity and couldn't determine whether she was an ally. However, considering Xian An's strength, it would be detrimental if she decided to join Ren Yuan... What should she do?
"The Heavenly Desolate God Emperor? I see. It's him." Xian An had an enlightened expression.
Her voice changed slightly as she continued to speak. "I heard that he's nothing more than a rat who enjoys hiding in a sewer and occasionally emerges to steal food. From the looks of it, it seems to be true."
A murderous intent flashed across Chun Yue's eyes, but it lasted for only a brief moment. Chun Yue stared at Xian An for a while and said. "Since Your Excellency refuses my master's invitation, I shall bid farewell here… Oh. I would like to offer Your Excellency a piece of advice before I depart."
"You have disrupted my master's plan today, and he is definitely dissatisfied with it. However, he has always been a generous person. I hope this will be the last time you interfere with something you shouldn't."
Xian An smiled brightly upon hearing this. "I have lived for ten thousand years, and this is the first time I have heard such good advice. It's really opening my eyes."
Chun Yue gazed deeply at Xian An as her figure slowly dissolved into the void.
Just as she was about to retreat completely, Xian An's voice suddenly resounded beside her, causing Chun Yue's expression to change slightly.
"Where do you think you are going?"
BOOM—
A burst of frost energy erupted around Chun Yue's body, causing her limbs to grow numb.
Chun Yue's face sank. A long sword appeared in her hand as she tore open the space in front of her.
At the same time, several willow vines protruded from her body. They wrapped around her, pulling her into the spatial rift she had just created before disappearing into it.
"Oh?" Xian An raised her eyebrows slightly upon seeing this scene. "What a good escape technique. However, the price she needs to pay must be quite hefty."
With that said, Xian An retracted her hand and returned to Hong Hualian's side.
"Thank you for saving my life, Senior." Hong Hualian cupped her fists and said politely.
"Don't mention it. I'm merely doing someone a favor." Xian An waved her hand.
A strange light flashed in Hong Hualian's eyes as she asked cautiously. "May I know who that person is?"
"Yun Lintian." Xian An replied casually.
Hong Hualian was astounded by the answer… Where did he find such a powerful helper?
"Your injury is not light. You should go back and get some rest." Xian An glanced at Hong Hualian's wounds and said.
"Can I invite you to my place, Senior?" Hong Hualian spoke up.
Xian An thought for a moment and said. "Sure."
She waved her hand and instructed her subordinates to escort Hong Hualian into the Red Lotus God Realm in the distance.
***
"Ugh…" Chun Yue spat out a mouthful of blood upon her return to the Heavenly Desolate God Realm.
It was as Xian An had expected. Chun Yue indeed paid a hefty price to activate an escaping technique previously.
Chun Yue stuffed a few healing pills into her mouth and circulated her divine energy to stabilize her internal injury.
A moment later, she took a deep breath and walked into the garden.
At this moment, Ren Yuan was leisurely feeding carp in a fish pond. He didn't even look at Chun Yue as he asked. "How is it?"
Chun Yue lowered her head and said. "Please forgive me, master. I failed to save Quan Xiao's life."
"It doesn't matter. He is just a pawn." Ren Yuan said calmly and threw some food into the pond. "Who is it?"
"This person's identity has been confirmed as an outsider. Her strength is not inferior to that of the Dragon Princess at her peak or even stronger." Chun Yue responded solemnly. "There are also twenty peak Divine Emperors under her."
Ren Yuan's movement stopped as he spoke. "Take a rest. There will be a movement soon."
