War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

4225 High-Speed Chase

Upon seeing the impatience in Yun Qing Yan's eyes, Yu Cheng Shu quickly bowed and said, "Young Master Qing Yan, I have something urgent to tell you. It's related to Eldest Miss Xia of the Xia clan."

Yu Qing Yan's eyes widened slightly upon hearing Yu Cheng Shu's words. He stepped forward and scrutinized Yu Cheng Shu with a pointed gaze.

Yu Cheng Shu instinctively retreated as he felt a suffocating energy pressing down on him.

"Speak," Yun Qing Yan said as his eyes burned.

"Young Master Qing Yan…" Yu Cheng Shu said before he quickly recounted what happened. He could see Yun Qing Yan was anxious. After recounting what happened, he added, "Young Master Qing Yan, please take action immediately. I'm afraid they might leave. At that time, it'll be difficult to track them down."

Unexpectedly, the impatient Yun Qing Yan suddenly calmed down after listening to Yu Cheng Shu. He asked, "You're saying that an advanced Emperor of Gods kidnapped my cousin sister and intends to use her to make a deal with me?"

Yu Cheng Shu could tell that Yu Cheng Shu found the matter unbelievable and ridiculous. He said hastily, "Young Master Qing Yan, I find the matter absurd as well. Let alone an advanced Emperor of Gods, even an imminent Supreme God won't have the courage to use Eldest Miss Xia to make a deal with you. However, that middle-aged man is different. I've met Eldest Miss Xia in the past, and I've heard her speak. Hence, I recognized her voice when she told the kidnapper she had nothing to do with you. I was afraid of alerting the kidnapper so I didn't use the Floating Image Pearl. Otherwise, I would've recorded the scene for evidence."

Yun Qing Yan seemed to waver after listening to Yu Cheng Shu's explanation. He stared at Yu Cheng Shu for a moment before he said frostily, "Do you know the consequences of lying to me?"

Yu Cheng Shu turned pale immediately. Then, he quickly said with a bitter expression on his face, "Young Master Qing Yan, I'm a nobody. How could I possess the courage to deceive you?"

Yu Cheng Shu knew that even if he was the Second Elder of the Profound Universe Saint Sect, he was nothing in front of the Yun clan. If Yun Qing Yan wanted him dead, the Yun clan did not even need to make a move. Instead, the rudimentary Supreme God of the Profound Universe Saint Sect would take the initiative to abandon him or kill him to appease the Yun clan in case things went south.

Yun Qing Yan scoffed. He naturally knew that Yu Cheng Shu did not have the courage to deceive him. He was only showing off his sovereignty. For a while, he remained silent.

Yu Cheng Shu knew that Yu Qing Yan must be speaking to his subordinates now, requesting them to accompany him to leave the clan's estate. He was proven right when an old man and a middle-aged man arrived a dozen breaths later.

"Eldest Young Master."

The two men greeted Yun Qing Yan respectfully, completely ignoring Yu Cheng Shu. It was as though Yu Cheng Shu was not there at all.

Yu Cheng Shu gasped inwardly upon seeing the two men. He knew the two men were intermediate Supreme Gods who had stabilized their cultivation bases. One of them was rumored to have comprehended the law to the point where he was close to being able to manifest the light of the law that shone for 100,000 miles on the Realm Battlefield.

'Young Master Qing Yan is quite cautious…' Yu Cheng Shu thought to himself.

Although it was only natural that Yun Qing Yan, who would lead the Yun clan in the future, to be cautious, Yu Cheng Shu could not help but feel that Yun Qing Yan was overreacting. After all, the kidnapper was just an advanced Emperor of Gods; at most, the opponent was an imminent Supreme God. He did not think it was necessary for Yun Qing Yan to request the presence of two intermediate Supreme Gods.

'It seems like Young Master Qing Yan doesn't trust me at all.' Yu Cheng Shu smiled wryly. He wondered if Yun Qing Ya really suspected him of trying to assassinate him. How could he dare to do such a thing when Yun Qing Yan was the future leader of the clan and was greatly doted upon by the Leader of the Yun clan? Moreover, Yun Qing Yan also had the support of the advanced Supreme Gods in the Yun clan.

'In any case, there's no harm in him being extra cautious. At the very least, I don't have to worry about the kidnapper even if he has reinforcements.'

With the presence of the two intermediate Supreme Gods, Yu Cheng Shu did not have anything to worry about.

Finally, Yun Qing Yan looked at Yu Cheng Shu and said, "Lead the way."

"Yes, Young Master Qing Yan," Yu Cheng Shu said.

…

It did not take long before Yun Qing Yan, Yu Cheng Shu, and the two intermediate Supreme Gods arrived near the valley. When they drew closer, they saw a supreme-grade flying ship suddenly rising to the sky. Following that, two figures could be seen boarding the flying ship.

"Cousin sister!" Yun Qing Yan cried out. He recognized one of the two figures in just a blink of an eye. The figure belonged to his cousin sister who entered the Realm Battlefield and disappeared without any news for many years. He did not expect to meet her here. The last time he had seen her was when he brought her back to the Xia clan from the mundane realm. Even then, he was so familiar with her that he could recognize her with just a glance. Her appearance, expressions, and subtle actions were exactly the same as he remembered them.

Swoosh!

At this time, the supreme-grade flying ship flew away at the speed of an advanced Supreme God. Needless to say, the speed was so fast that even the two intermediate Supreme Gods would not be able to catch up to it with their speed alone.

Upon seeing this, the old man standing behind Yun Qing Yan quickly brought out a supreme-grade flying ship as well. Then, he said, "Eldest Young Master, please board the flying ship."

Yun Qing Yan, the middle-aged man, and the old man quickly boarded the ship. In just a moment, the flying ship sped off, leaving Yu Cheng Shu behind.

Yu Cheng Shu watched the flying ship leave as he muttered to himself, "I hope Young Master Qing Yan manages to rescue Eldest Young Miss Xia. Most importantly, I hope he remembers to reward me…"

…

Swoosh!

Yun Qing Yan's flying ship was flying at the speed of an advanced Supreme God as well. Unfortunately, since the flying ship ahead of them was also flying at the same speed and even had a headstart, they could not catch up to it.

Yun Qing Yan stared at the flying ship up ahead with a dark expression as he asked, "Elder Chen, can't you catch up with it?"

"Eldest Young Master, we can only wait until the other party exhausts his divine crystals and slows down. In my opinion, the other party shouldn't have as many divine crystals as us. There are three of us, after all," the old man replied.

Swoosh!

As soon as the old man's voice fell, Yun Qing Yan waved his hand, bringing out all the divine crystals in his spatial ring and placing them on the deck. Then, he looked at the flying ship in front frostily as he said, "I won't let her leave my side ever again!"

Previously, when Yun Qing Yan brought Xia Ning Xue back to the Xiao clan, he planned to force her to marry him by using the people he held hostage to threaten her. He did not expect that the Xia clan would be so unreliable, allowing Xia Ning Xue to escape to the Realm Battlefield. Moreover, he also later found out that the group of people he kidnapped had been released by Xia Jie, the Third Master of the Xia clan. At that time, he was so furious that the idea of destroying the Xia clan briefly appeared in his mind.

Now that Yun Qing Yan saw Xia Ning Yue again, he felt that it was the heavens sending her back to him.

Yun Qing Yan's eyes burned with flames as fury as he thought to himself, 'Cousin sister, I won't let you leave my side ever again. If you leave me again, I'll return to that mundane realm with my clan's Supreme Gods to kill everyone related to Duan Ling Tian once the Realm Battlefield closes and the spatial connections between the Realms of Gods and the lower realms are restored.'

All of a sudden, the middle-aged man exclaimed, "He's turning!"

The supreme-grade flying ship in front suddenly swerved to the right at this moment.

The old man hesitated for a moment, feeling like something was amiss.

"Follow him!"

The old man quickly dismissed his thoughts upon hearing Yun Qing Yan's command. He quickly turned the flying ship right as well.

The two supreme-grade flying ships continued to engage in a high-speed chase, exhausting large numbers of divine crystals as they did so.
