Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Fan Xichong was left with no choice but to send a talisman letter to Yue Wuxie as Anning instructed.

He originally wanted to say in the letter that he had encountered danger while purchasing rare holy medicines for the people of Zhenwu Peak, but Princess Anning stopped him, and in the end, he had no choice but to give up.

He used an urgent talisman letter, burning part of his own lifespan as a price to increase the transmission speed of the talisman letter tenfold.

But even so, because this place was too far from Qingyun, it would take several days to arrive.

He didn't know why the princess wanted him to do this, but since the princess said so, there must be a reason.

A day later, Fan Xichong felt a warning sign and sensed danger approaching.

He endured the severe pain in his body and struggled to stand up, preparing to take the princess away, but found that the princess was almost in a coma.

"Princess?"

Fan Xichong shook Anning's shoulder, but only received a slight reaction.

Her head shook slightly, her eyelashes trembled, and she made a low, almost inaudible sound.

Fan Xichong checked the life force in her body and found that it was very weak, and the flame of life was like a dying lamp in the wind, as if it would go out at any time.

He hurriedly sent his own life essence into her body, brought his ear closer, and said, "Princess, this old servant is here, you must hold on!"

"Fan Xichong..."

Princess Anning seemed to be saying something, but her voice was too weak, and he could barely hear it.

"Princess, what do you want to say?"

He focused his hearing, and this time he finally heard clearly.

"You... you take the holy medicine back... back to Qingzhou... give it to... to... Young Master Yue... don't... don't worry about me..."

"This old servant can't possibly abandon the princess!"

Fan Xichong wrapped Anning in true energy and quickly left this place. He had already sensed the experts from the Ding family, and they would arrive here soon.

Presumably, those people also sensed their aura.

"Princess, please forgive this old servant for disobeying your orders. This old servant will listen to you in everything. Even if you ask this old servant to die immediately, this old servant will not hesitate. This life was originally saved by the princess. Only this matter, this old servant cannot listen to you!"

Fan Xichong didn't go far before quickly offering a escape talisman, disappearing from the spot out of thin air.

He knew that he had already been locked onto by the aura of the Ding family. If he couldn't create enough distance and get rid of their spiritual lock, no matter how he ran, it would be useless.

His current physical condition was very bad, and he was unable to run at high speed for a long time.

An escape talisman covered tens of thousands of miles.

Fan Xichong hurriedly found a secret place and hid Princess Anning.

Looking at Anning, who was so weak that she was almost unconscious, he was filled with anxiety.

The current situation was getting worse and worse, and there was only one last escape talisman left.

If things continued like this, after being found by the Ding family, he could only run one more time at most.

What would happen after the escape talisman was used up?

"Princess, you can't sleep, you must cheer up, try to heal slowly, and stabilize the flame of life!"

Fan Xichong once again injected life essence into her body, making his own injuries even more serious.

Then, he gave Princess Anning a Three-Revolution Holy Spirit Pill and placed the last escape talisman in her hand.

"Princess, you must maintain a trace of consciousness. If you encounter danger, activate the escape talisman. Hopefully, you can hold on until someone finds you. There will be a miracle, there will definitely be..."

Fan Xichong clenched his fists tightly, took a deep look at her, and turned to leave.

He deliberately left very obvious traces along the way, heading in the opposite direction.

He knew that what he could do now was to lure the Ding family to track him when they arrived in this area, thereby reducing the chance of the princess being discovered.

Only by doing this could he buy time.

Otherwise, there would be no hope at all.

Fan Xichong burned his own lifespan to sublimate, using some kind of special body technique to make his speed extremely fast.

The next day, the Ding family tracked down to this area, paused slightly, and chased after Fan Xichong's departure direction.

...

At the same time, Jun Wuxie, who was in closed-door cultivation on Qingyun's Zhenwu Peak, once again received a talisman letter.

At first glance, it was not Princess Anning's handwriting, but it had Princess Anning's spiritual talisman imprint.

Looking at the contents of the letter, his expression became more and more solemn.

This was a talisman letter written by Fan Xichong at Princess Anning's request, and the letter stated it very clearly.

At the end of the letter, there was also this sentence: If you can save the princess, I, Fan Xichong, owe you a life. If I can survive this time, I will obey any orders in the future and will never refuse!

"Why would Anning run to Hanzhou?"

Jun Wuxie frowned, realizing the seriousness of the matter.

They were now in a desperate situation, being hunted down by five half-step Overlord Saints, and both Fan Xichong and Anning were seriously injured.

He put away the talisman letter, which had Anning's aura imprint on it. With this, he could quickly find her.

It's just that going to Hanzhou was extremely far away. At his speed, he didn't know how long it would take. Even if he rode Lan Lan using the Super God Technique, he was afraid that the day lilies would be cold by the time he arrived.

"Aunt You, I'm going to Hanzhou, send me on my way!"

Jun Wuxie could only ask Suzaku for help, otherwise it would be impossible to arrive in time. Anning's situation was already very dangerous.

If Anning died, then his plan would be aborted.

"Is it the area where the aura on the talisman imprint is located?"

Suzaku's intellectual and gentle voice sounded in his mind.

"Yes, thank you, Aunt You."

As soon as Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he only felt a blur before his eyes, and a feeling of instantly crossing endless space.

The next moment, he appeared in front of a vine-covered cave in a vast mountain range.

At the same time, he sensed Anning's weak aura in the cave.

Pulling aside the vines, he entered the cave.

In the darkness, he saw Anning leaning against the damp wall, almost in a coma.

Her body was covered in blood, completely becoming a blood man, her face was as pale as paper, her lips were chapped, and blood stains hung on the corners of her mouth.

Perhaps feeling someone approaching, her eyes trembled slightly, trying to open them but unable to do so.

However, Jun Wuxie saw a light lit up in her hand.

It was a talisman.

With just one glance, he could see the effect of the talisman, it was a void escape talisman.

"Princess, it's me!"

Jun Wuxie hurriedly stepped forward and snatched it from her hand the moment the escape talisman was about to be completely activated.

Anning's hand subconsciously grabbed in the void, then weakly fell to the ground.

Jun Wuxie grabbed her wrist and checked her physical condition, and couldn't help but frown.

How could she be so badly injured?

He found a lot of dormant Three-Revolution Holy Spirit Pill medicinal energy in Anning's body.

He had used this kind of elixir in the Extraterrestrial Ruins of the Lower Realm, which Ling Qingyu brought down from the Upper Realm.

The Three-Revolution Holy Spirit Pill had a very good healing effect and was useful for cultivators below the Overlord Saint Realm.

It's just that Anning's physical condition was too bad, and her vitality was severely damaged, so she couldn't absorb the medicinal energy at all, causing a lot of the medicinal energy to remain dormant in her body.

Moreover, this medicinal energy could not be guided to heal her now.

Her internal organs were completely shattered, and her bones were covered with cracks, unable to withstand the impact of this medicinal energy.

"Where is Fan Xichong? Could he have died in battle?"

He looked in the cave, but there was no sign of Fan Xichong.

He scanned the nearby area with his divine sense, but there was no corpse of Fan Xichong. He couldn't care about that much at the moment, and quickly used his own life essence, in an incomparably gentle way, transforming it into thousands of strands, and injecting it into Anning's body.

Only in this way could her bad body be able to withstand it.

"The physical body of a pure true energy cultivator is still too weak. Once it is severely damaged, even medicinal energy is difficult to absorb."

He shook his head, and at this moment, he saw that the sleeve of her left arm was empty.

Jun Wuxie's pupils shrank slightly, and he tore off the sleeve of Anning's left arm at the shoulder.

When he saw the position of the broken arm on her shoulder, he was stunned for a moment.

"This is not a recent wound. Based on her body's recovery ability, judging from the appearance of this healing, it has been at least a month or more."

He was very surprised. A month ago, Anning should still have been in Qingzhou.

Because at that time, she had written him a talisman letter.

In Qingzhou, who would dare to hurt her?

Judging from the shape of the wound, it was very irregular, not caused by a sharp weapon, but more like the entire arm was torn off alive.

"Could it be Ning Wang, who was angered by my matter or something and vented his anger on her?"

Jun Wuxie could only think of this possibility now, otherwise who would dare to hurt her like this, and why would Ning Wang have no action, unless he did it himself.

But would Ning Wang be so cruel, hurting his own daughter like this?

"If it's really because of me that Ning Wang vented his anger, then in this matter, I really am sorry for you..."

Jun Wuxie sighed, feeling a little guilty in his heart.

It's just that the truth is still just speculation, and this speculation doesn't seem so reliable.

He would wait until Anning was better and ask her in person.

His life essence was obviously much stronger than Fan Xichong's life essence.

The vitality contained within was not on the same level at all.

The golden blood energy entered Anning's body in thousands of strands, nourishing her internal organs, bones, meridians, and flesh, gradually stabilizing her flickering flame of life.

Her own life origin also stimulated some vitality under the stimulation of life essence to repair her body.

While Jun Wuxie was healing her, he carefully checked her condition.

Fortunately, the origin was not damaged, but many cracks appeared in the wheel of life.

It was because of this that her injuries were so severe.

If he hadn't taken action, after a few more days, even if she wasn't found by the experts of the Ding family in Yecheng, Hanzhou, she would have exhausted her life and died here.

“The lives of pure Qi cultivators are too fragile…”

Jun Wuxie suddenly felt somewhat sentimental, thinking he needed to find a technique specifically for cultivating the physical body for the people around him, so their physical strength could be improved.

When the time came, he would return to the Lower Realm and have the people there cultivate the physical body technique. The senior brothers, senior sisters, and masters of the True Martial Peak would all need to strengthen their bodies.

Even though their physical bodies were already much stronger than those of pure Qi cultivators, there was still a lot of room for improvement. The higher-ups of Qingyun also needed it.

Gradually, Princess Anning's condition improved, and her physical body was no longer in such a terrible state. However, even with his life essence, it was difficult to repair the cracks on her Wheel of Life.

Jun Wuxie immediately condensed a drop of life blood essence and injected it into her heart, allowing it to slowly release the essence of life into the blood in her heart, flowing through her entire body to gradually repair her body and Wheel of Life.

Princess Anning's long, curved eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.

The dim and blurry scene before her gradually became clear.

A masculine and handsome face appeared in her vision.

“Yue… Young Master Yue?”

Her lips trembled, and she made a weak, surprised sound, then muttered to herself, “I must be hallucinating…”

“What hallucination?” Jun Wuxie reached out and gently patted her pale face, saying, “Feel it, is this a hallucination?”

“You… really… really are you…”

A look of joy appeared in her eyes, and she struggled to stand up, but she was so weak that she had no strength in her body.

“Don't move, you're very weak right now. Your Wheel of Life is shattered. If I had come two days later, I would have seen a corpse. What's wrong? What are you doing in Hanzhou?”

“Where are the people from the Ding family of Yecheng in Hanzhou?”

Anning's heart was full of doubts. Qingzhou was too far from here. It should take Yue Wuxie a long time to rush over and find her.

In such a long time, how could the Ding family not have found her?

This didn't make sense.

“They probably haven't found this place yet.”

Hearing this, Anning vigorously turned her head to search the cave.

Jun Wuxie knew that she must be looking for Fan Xichong. “Fan Xichong isn't here. I didn't see him when I came. But don't worry, there's no corpse of him around. I think he should have gone to lure away the experts of the Ding family…”

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes turned cold, and a flash of cold light flashed in his pupils.

“What's wrong?”

Anning looked at him and said weakly.

“Someone is coming soon. It should be the people from the Ding family of Yecheng you mentioned.” Saying this, he bent down and picked up Princess Anning, saying, “This time I came to save you, it's destined to expose some secrets. I hope you can keep it a secret and not tell your father, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!”

“Haven't I already been completely in your grasp? How would I dare to reveal your secrets? You can rest assured.”

Princess Anning was very unaccustomed to being so close to a man, and being held in his arms.

But there was no way now. She was weak and could only get used to it.

This position made her ear very close to Jun Wuxie's heart.

The strong and powerful heartbeat entered her ear, giving her an indescribable feeling in her heart. She only felt that her heartbeat seemed to follow his heartbeat rhythm uncontrollably.

“His heart is so strong, how can it be so strong…”

She never dared to imagine that the heartbeat of a person at most in the Saint King Realm could be so strong.

She usually couldn't hear it, but when her ear was close to his body, she could hear the sound of the heartbeat and feel the strength, like a war drum beating.

Jun Wuxie didn't know Anning's psychological activities at the moment, nor did he realize that his strong heart, as a physical freak, would bring such a spiritual shock to her, who cultivated pure Qi.

He carried Princess Anning out of the dark cave.

The abundant light outside, the sunlight shining down, made Anning's eyes a little uncomfortable, and it took a while to adjust.

“Aren't we leaving yet? The experts of the Ding family are coming. They are all in the Half-Step Overlord Saint Realm. You are no match for them. Leave quickly.”

Anning was very worried, afraid that they would both fall into a desperate situation.

“You also know that they are in the Half-Step Overlord Saint Realm. We are already locked on at this time, and we can't run away. So, I have no choice but to reluctantly kill the people who come.”

“What?”

Princess Anning looked at him in shock. That was a Half-Step Overlord Saint, how could he kill them?

Even a mythical Saint King could not have such ability. The realm gap was too large, separated by a chasm.

“Isn't it… too risky? We should still…”

“Shut up.” Jun Wuxie glanced at her and said, “With such a serious injury, you still talk so much nonsense. You stay here obediently, and leave the rest to me. Since I'm here, I will definitely bring you back to Qingzhou alive. The Ding family will never be able to hurt you again.”

Being scolded by him like this, a burst of anger rose in Princess Anning's heart as a conditioned reflex, but when she met his strong gaze, the anger instantly subsided, and she felt inexplicably wronged for some reason.

Growing up, even her father had never spoken loudly to her.

But this man had roared and scolded her again and again.

She was just worried about the dangerous situation and didn't say anything wrong, but she was scolded by him like this.

At this time, Jun Wuxie's divine sense sensed that the experts of the Ding family were getting closer and closer.

However, there were not many people, only one person.

That person was approaching rapidly, and obviously his divine sense had also sensed their existence and locked onto him and Anning.

His eyes became colder and colder, and his killing intent was fully revealed.
