Chapter 943: Chapter 0567: Teleportation Talisman_2 Chapter 943: Chapter 0567: Teleportation Talisman_2 Wang Fengna’s Divine Sense was incredibly strong, and upon entering Chaoyang Palace, it was as if she had entered an uninhabited territory, charging straight for the heart of Chaoyang Palace. Just when she was about to touch Emperor Chaoyang’s sleeping quarters, a figure suddenly burst forth, holding a long sword in his hand. With a leap, he raised his sword and chopped toward the ground.
The slash was as swift as lightning, accurate without deviation, and it landed squarely on Wang Fengna’s Divine Sense. Wang Fengna’s Divine Sense, which had felt as if it had been in unoccupied territory, was severed by this single stroke.
Sitting in the teahouse, Wang Fengna’s body swayed. Had she not reined it in quickly enough, she would have spat out a mouthful of blood. Even if just a tiny part of her Divine Sense was chopped off, Wang Fengna felt as though she had been viciously struck on the head with a blunt weapon.
Before Wang Fengna could recover, the person who had just chopped off her Divine Sense had already lightly tapped his toes on the ground and leaped into the air. Hovering aloft, he looked ominously over this area, and in the next instant, his gaze locked firmly onto Wang Fengna, who was forcefully pretending as if nothing had happened. His gaze turned icy as he pointed his sword at Wang Fengna and said, “You’ve really got so nerve, daring to spy on Chaoyang Palace with your Divine Sense. The Prince has ordered that there is only one way to deal with people like you: death.”
No sooner had he spoken than he charged at Wang Fengna. His feet tapped ceaselessly in the void, each step creating ripples in the fabric of space, a sight that was simply astonishing.
Wang Fengna’s face paled slightly—she hadn’t expected to be exposed so soon, and this was extrely abnormal. How could the servants of Chaoyang Palace be so powerful? This was not consistent with the information she had gathered beforehand.
Shocked as she was, Wang Fengna reacted quickly. She didn’t dare waste a split second and floated up as if she were weightless, soaring into the sky and outpacing the sword bearer, flying out of the teahouse before he could strike.
“Scoundrel, it would be best for you to stay and await the Prince’s judgnt. Otherwise, once I personally capture you, the Prince will surely have you undergo extre torture. By then, you will beg for life in vain and beg for death all the more,” the sword bearer shouted.
But who was Wang Fengna, to surrender just because of a threat from a man with a sword? With a tap of her toes on the ground and several Defense Runes flashing on her body, she flew up almost instantaneously at a terrifying speed.
The sword bearer snorted coldly and also swiftly pursued her.
By this ti, many cultivators had been alard and gathered round to watch the spectacle, with so already taking to the sky to gain a better viewpoint.
Qi Tian gave Xia Xiaoming a look, motioning for him to take to the air for a better look.
Xia Xiaoming flew up, looking in the direction where Wang Fengna had fled. Before he could catch a glimpse of Wang Fengna, he saw a flicker of cold light in the hand of the sword bearer, and a Wolf Teeth Knife flew out, heading straight for the retreating Wang Fengna’s back.
The speed of the Wolf Teeth Knife was too fast, fleeting like a startled swan, and it quickly caught up with Wang Fengna.
Wang Fengna was not facing the chase of the Wolf Teeth Knife for the first ti; the last ti, it had taken her a great deal of effort, and in the end, she had relied on several others to take the fall for her, thus escaping the knife’s pursuit. Wang Fengna had always believed that the Wolf Teeth Knife she encountered that ti was the most top-tier one that could be found in the world, but now she realized how foolish that judgnt had been. Not to speak of others, the very knife pursuing her now was far superior to the one she had faced before.
Last ti, soone had taken the blade for Wang Fengna, allowing her to erge unscathed, but this ti, where could Wang Fengna find another scapegoat? She could only keep hastening her own speed, hoping to shake off the chase of the Wolf Teeth Knife.
But Wang Fengna had underestimated the speed of the Wolf Teeth Knife still; before she could accelerate to the speed she desired, the knife had already reached her. At that mont, the sixth sense Wang Fengna had honed through life-and-death experiences saved her life, and just as the Wolf Teeth Knife was about to pierce her back heart, Wang Fengna dodged with lightning speed.
With a “swoosh” sound, the Wolf Teeth Knife directly pierced through Wang Fengna’s shoulder blade. As the vice-leader of the Eight Pill Alliance, Wang Fengna had an abundance of life-preserving items on her; several defensive treasures on her upper body were activated when the Wolf Teeth Knife pierced her shoulder blade. Sadly, they were still unable to stop the knife. However, these protective artifacts were not entirely useless; at least after breaking through the layered defenses and piercing Wang Fengna’s shoulder blade, the knife’s embedded potent force had weakened to its limit, posing no further threat to Wang Fengna.
Wang Fengna grabbed the Wolf Teeth Knife, now sared with her blood, and hastily stored it away. She then took out a talisman from her Storage Bag, turned back, and with a glacial gaze, coldly said to the person wielding the knife, “I will be back.”
Imdiately, Wang Fengna crushed the talisman in her hand, and a white light enveloped her. Then, with a flash of white light, Wang Fengna disappeared without a trace.
Xia Xiaoming narrowed his eyes, recognizing what Wang Fengna had used at the last mont—a precious Teleportation Talisman. Once activated, no matter where one was, it would permit instant escape from danger. Such talismans were extrely expensive and not easy to make; even in Wanjie City, they weren’t always available. If Xia Xiaoming rembered correctly, the last ti Wanjie Comrce had publicly auctioned a Teleportation Talisman was over a decade ago.
Wang Fengna had teleported away, and her destination was unknown, which ant there was no more excitent to witness. Xia Xiaoming didn’t linger in the air and instead descended to the ground, returning to the teahouse to relay everything he had just seen to Qi Tian in detail.
Qi Tian’s brows furrowed upon hearing this. Not long ago, he was worried about the absence of news from other outsiders, wondering if the royal family was planning a long-term sche. He had just decided to go out with Gao Jini and Xia Xiaoming when they stumbled upon this incident. Now, with Wang Fengna’s appearance, it would surely incite the royal family’s fury; they will likely organize a large number of people to conduct a thorough search of the Eastern Capital City soon.
This was the first matter that dissatisfied Qi Tian, but there were several other concerns that troubled him. Firstly, it was the identity of the knife wielder. After Xia Xiaoming went outside, Qi Tian had heard people discussing the knife wielder’s identity; the man, Yang Yongqi, was none other than the personal guard commander to Emperor Chaoyang, with unfathomably deep cultivation, said to be the strongest below the Nascent Soul Masters. Secondly, the martial arts practiced by Yang Yongqi were excessively powerful. Wang Fengna used only a sliver of Divine Sense to probe Chaoyang Palace, and yet Yang Yongqi detected it, managed to pinpoint the location of her Divine Sense with precision, and cut it with his knife. Such an occurrence was unheard of by Qi Tian before, not to ntion witnessing it firsthand.
Besides that, there was the matter of the Wolf Teeth Knife thrown by Yang Yongqi. Qi Tian had seen many Wolf Teeth Knives before, but they all paled in comparison to the one Yang Yongqi wielded today. How many such powerful knives does the royal family possess? Where do they co from—are they in limited supply, or does the royal family have a thod to manufacture them, producing an endless stream as long as the raw materials are sufficient? If the latter is true, it would be truly terrifying.
