"Swoosh!"
A figure appeared directly above the small courtyard where Xu Ping’an was.
The cor was a young man who seed to be attracted by the phenonal celestial and terrestrial changes in the surroundings.
Xu Ping’an looked at the newcor, frowning slightly.
The strength of the newcor was not weak, having already reached the Eighth Rank Peak level.
And judging by the newcor’s appearance, he seed to be only around twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
Such an age, possessing such cultivation, was definitely a very extraordinary matter.
However, Situ Qianqian, who was standing aside, showed a look of joy on her face.
"Brother?" Situ Qianqian exclaid in delight.
Brother?
Xu Ping’an was sowhat surprised; was the newcor also from the King Lie Mansion?
Cao Yuqing, who was beside them, also relaxed.
The young man slowly descended and asked Situ Qianqian gently, "Are you alright? Father learned that you had returned and sent to pick you up."
"I’m fine, all thanks to Big Brother Xu taking action, otherwise we would have been caught by the Heavenly Moon Sect long ago," Situ Qianqian said hastily.
Situ Qianqian was two years younger than Xu Ping’an, so it was normal for her to call him "Big Brother."
"Oh? I am Situ Xingfeng. I thank you, brother, for saving my sister," said Situ Xingfeng to Xu Ping’an with a slight bow. However, his eyes were roving over Xu Ping’an as if asuring him up.
In his view, it was unfathomable for soone of Xu Ping’an’s age to have reached the Seventh Rank Eighth Layer Realm.
Xu Ping’an did not mind Situ Xingfeng’s scrutiny; the other man’s gaze did not carry any malice, but rely a pure vigilance.
If he were in his shoes, he would have done the sa.
Besides, Situ Xingfeng’s strength did not pose a threat to him.
With his current state, not to speak of the Ninth Rank Fifth Layer Realm, even if soone from the Ninth Rank Sixth Layer Realm ca, they might not be able to do anything to him.
"My na is Xu Ping’an, it was but a trifling effort, no need for courtesy," Xu Ping’an said, waving his hand. However, his eyes remained extrely vigilant.
If Situ Xingfeng made any sudden moves, he would strike first and kill him.
"Xu Ping’an, are you the Xu Ping’an from the Heavenly Star Ancient Palace?" Situ Xingfeng asked, looking at Xu Ping’an in surprise.
Of course, he had heard a lot about Xu Ping’an’s deeds.
He knew that Xu Ping’an had killed people in the Heavenly Star Ancient Palace.
As for those rumors, he naturally did not believe them.
Now, seeing Xu Ping’an’s cultivation, he was even more doubtful.
Even if Xu Ping’an’s cultivation was only at the Seventh Rank Eighth Layer Realm, how could he possibly kill so many people, no matter how defiant to the heavens he was?
It must be soone intent on targeting him, so they had released such news.
Nevertheless, Xu Ping’an being ranked eighty-seventh on the Wind and Cloud Pavilion’s genius list also marked him as a top-tier genius.
"So it’s Brother Xu. You need not mind; I have no affiliations with those powers, so I won’t do anything to you," Situ Xingfeng said with a smile upon seeing Xu Ping’an’s wary look.
Xu Ping’an nodded, but, while he restrained his gaze, his heart was still not at ease.
Although he had also investigated, it seed that the King Lie Mansion had no connections with the Defying Heaven Alliance.
But who knew if they were people from the Defying Heaven Alliance behind the scenes?
So it was still better to be safe than sorry.
"Brother, Brother Xu is really powerful. He has a demon beast that killed an Eighth Rank elder of the Heavenly Moon Sect directly," Situ Qianqian imdiately said.
"Oh?" Situ Xingfeng showed a look of surprise, and his mind quickly understood.
No wonder Xu Ping’an was able to kill so many, he had a powerful demon beast by his side.
Xu Ping’an saw the expression on Situ Xingfeng’s face and instantly knew what he was thinking. He simply smiled and did not bother to explain.
However, to tell the truth, he indeed had quite a few demon beasts with him.
Aside from the Blade Mantis, there was also Xiao Qing.
Of course, there was also the Savage Ape King.
Speaking of the Savage Ape King, Xu Ping’an couldn’t help but feel irritated.
After learning about the presence of the Thunder Brilliance Ring on Xu Ping’an, it had entered the ring to cultivate.
After absorbing so of the Indestructible Lightning Force, it had actually fallen into a deep slumber.
This was also why Xu Ping’an, when previously being chased, did not ask the Savage Ape King for assistance.
However, if the Savage Ape King could awaken this ti, its power would surely have greatly increased.
In this regard, Xu Ping’an also felt sowhat relieved.
An increase in the Savage Ape King’s strength would be of help to him; after all, the Savage Ape King was a formidable fighter.
"Appearances can be deceptive, Brother Xu, what brings you to the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty this ti? If I’m not mistaken, you should belong to the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty," Situ Xingfeng asked with curiosity.
"I am here to look for a relative," Xu Ping’an didn’t deliberately conceal the truth, but neither did he go into detail.
"Does Brother Xu intend to go to the imperial capital to seek the Thirteenth Princess?" Situ Xingfeng seed to know so information about Xu Ping’an and asked.
Hearing this, Xu Ping’an did not show any surprise, and nodded in response, "Yes, I plan to head to the imperial capital."
The Thirteenth Princess was indeed his maternal aunt.
Previously, Xu Ping’an had also looked into it; his aunt Su Chan was the one ranked thirteenth, with the title ’Chi Yue’.
"Then Brother Xu may be disappointed. Now, the Thirteenth Princess is the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty’s cherished darling. Not to ntion taking her away, it’s extrely difficult to even get an audience with her. Moreover, it is said that the Thirteenth Princess has entered the ancestral grounds of the Fire Divine Palace for cultivation, and she has yet to erge," Situ Xingfeng responded.
He had the fortune of seeing the Thirteenth Princess once; that one glimpse had left him absolutely amazed.
It must be said, the Thirteenth Princess was indeed exceedingly beautiful.
Before her cultivation, there might not have been much change, but the current Thirteenth Princess, after undergoing three purifications and awakenings of her bloodline, had transford completely.
It was said that the princess’s cultivation was advancing by leaps and bounds.
One could say that the current Chi Yue Princess truly was the treasure of the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty.
If she had been male, she might very well have been the undisputed choice for the sovereign of the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty.
"Cultivating in the ancestral grounds of the Fire Divine Palace and has not yet erged?" Xu Ping’an furrowed his brows.
This made it significantly harder for him to et his aunt.
To storm the ancestral grounds of the Fire Divine Palace?
Xu Ping’an knew he did not possess such ability.
Based on his estimates, a power like the Fire Divine Palace would have at least Tenth Rank, or even higher rank cultivators in residence.
If he went there, it would be like walking into a trap.
"However, Brother Xu need not worry. In one more month, the imperial capital will hold its sacred ceremony, and by then the Thirteenth Princess will surely erge," Situ Xingfeng seed to guess what Xu Ping’an was thinking and imdiately spoke up.
"The imperial capital’s ceremony? Would Brother Situ care to elaborate on this ceremony?" Xu Ping’an asked.
Previously, on the carriage, he had heard Situ Qianqian ntion the ceremony, but since he was pretending to be asleep at the ti, he did not inquire further.
Now that it was ntioned again, Xu Ping’an wanted to understand it clearly.
"Actually, apart from being the eight hundredth anniversary of the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty’s founding, there is another important purpose for this ceremony: it is the day the dynasty conducts its inheritance rituals. The royal family of the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty is said to be descendants of an ancient and mighty clan, with an extrely powerful legacy. Any princes or grandsons who co of age are to undergo the inheritance process, and it is said that the Thirteenth Princess is the most likely candidate to receive the original ancestral heritage, so she will definitely be participating," Situ Xingfeng explained.
Xu Ping’an imdiately understood.
"I heard before that the Thirteenth Princess obtained an Immortal Emperor’s legacy, is that true?" Xu Ping’an continued to ask.
"I know of this, it is true. She received the legacy of an ancient sect from Ancient Tis, the Seal Heaven Sect, which is extrely powerful. It is her own fortune that the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty and the Fire Divine Palace hold her in such high esteem," Situ Qianqian interjected.
Xu Ping’an was a bit surprised.
His aunt’s own fortune seed to be quite profound.
Given that, he had to make sure he arrived at the imperial capital before the start of the ceremony, hopefully to take her away from this place after it concluded.
