Before Gu Jun entered the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, he left behind such a remark, leaving Xu Yang utterly speechless!

Capture Tuoba Hongyu?

Don’t be ridiculous.

He shook his head slightly, brushing away the joke from his mind. Looking at the four supreme-grade Celestial Jade Elixirs before him, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath of that rich pill fragrance.

Piercingly refreshing!

“As expected of a sixth-tier top-grade elixir!”

“With just one of these, even if you’re gravely injured, you’ll recover completely in a few hours!”

But what’s most precious about Celestial Jade Elixirs is their ability to expel hidden injuries Martial Artists suffer from. Think of how terrifying the lingering wounds are at the Myriad Phenomena Realm and above—such rarity speaks for itself!

At that moment, the illusory world enveloping the valley slowly dissipated.

Tuoba Hongyu strode quickly inside.

Xu Yang played with two Celestial Jade Elixirs in his hand, regarding Tuoba Hongyu with a look of amusement.

Tuoba Hongyu’s excitement froze bit by bit on her face, her beautiful eyes widened round as full moons. Clenching her fists, she gritted her teeth: “Xu Yang, I’m warning you, don’t go too far!”

She was truly afraid Xu Yang wouldn’t hand them over.

After all, the elixirs were in his hands.

“If I don’t give them to you, what can you do?” Xu Yang grinned.

“You… bastard!”

Tuoba Hongyu, both angry and embarrassed, stamped her foot hard. The killing intent in her eyes was sharp enough to gouge a man’s soul.

“If you dare refuse, I swear I won’t help you escape, even if it kills me.”

If she didn’t cooperate, it would be truly difficult to break out.

Xu Yang had to admit that much!

He sighed inwardly, and tossed her the two Celestial Jade Elixirs.

Tuoba Hongyu clutched the pills and checked them over and over again. When she confirmed they were indeed supreme-grade Celestial Jade Elixirs, her fury quickly faded, replaced with delight that overflowed from her brows, utterly uncontainable!

At this moment, Tuoba Hongyu even gained an added touch of charm and cuteness!

Xu Yang couldn’t help but take another two glances before swiftly averting his eyes.

Tuoba Hongyu’s entire attention was on the Celestial Jade Elixirs, not noticing Xu Yang’s gaze.

For a long while, she treasured the pills away, looked over at Xu Yang, her heart in a swirl of emotions!

Though there probably was outside assistance, with Xu Yang’s current strength even on par with the Late Stage of Myriad Phenomena, how long would it take him to concoct such pills?

Probably less than a year!

Pill King!

A Pill King at twenty!

Simply terrifying.

He alone could send a great power rising to a whole new level!

He could even make a world rise to prominence, or even form a major faction with himself at the center!

If only the Barbarian Race could use him…

Damn it all!

Tuoba Hongyu’s intent to kill wavered once again!

She truly couldn’t bear it!

But Xu Yang’s stance was as unyielding as iron!

She’d offered herself to his lips, only to be refused and mocked!

What else could move him?

Tuoba Hongyu’s loosened fist steadily clenched tight again, as she suddenly let out a long sigh.

“What a pity!”

“Pity for what?”

Xu Yang turned his head to look over.

Tuoba Hongyu smiled softly, “It’s nothing!”

Xu Yang shook his head faintly, not dwelling on it.

He scanned the area, put the Celestial Jade Elixirs into the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, then said solemnly, “Time to set out.”

“Your Highness, please escort me out of the Northern Territory!”

Tuoba Hongyu replied blandly, “Aren’t you afraid you’ll die on the road?”

“What use is fear?”

Xu Yang responded coolly, “I can only guarantee that when I die, you’ll go with me!”

Meeting Xu Yang’s indifferent eyes, Tuoba Hongyu’s heart shuddered!

Good!

Her wavering intent to kill solidified completely!

No hope remains for Xu Yang to be moved!

He must die!

He’s dead for sure!

“Let’s go.”

Tuoba Hongyu turned and left the valley.

Half an hour later.

The two of them exited the Forest of Illusory Fiends!

Xu Yang looked ahead, his face darkening: “Why hasn’t he left yet?”

Guo Wenlu was just outside the Forest of Illusory Fiends. Clearly, he was waiting for Tuoba Hongyu!

Moreover, two more people stood beside him!

Tuoba Hongyu raised her eyebrows slightly, suspiciousness flickering in her eyes.

She’d never asked Guo Wenlu to wait here.

“Scared?”

She curled her lip in ridicule.

Xu Yang’s expression quickly settled, then standing behind Tuoba Hongyu, he looked just like a proper Barbarian—with an air of complete composure!

Upon seeing Tuoba Hongyu arrive, the three hurried swiftly toward her.

“Your Highness!”

Guo Wenlu clasped his fists in greeting.

The two middle-aged barbarians beside him were even more reverential!

“Su Rijin greets Your Highness!”

“Wuo Lan greets Your Highness!”

Su Rijin was Middle Stage of Myriad Phenomena, Wuo Lan was Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm!

This level of strength seemed rather weak compared to Guo Wenlu; and in front of Tuoba Hongyu’s status, they were not worth mentioning at all!

Xu Yang coolly sized up the two. Su Rijin?

What’s his relation to Surihan?

The surname wasn’t one of the Barbarian Race’s four great clans, but unique surnames did crop up in the tribes.

Su Rijin, Surihan—if you say they aren’t related, he’d genuinely have to believe the southern wind!

“How come you’re both here?”

Tuoba Hongyu looked doubtingly at the two men.

“Your Highness—you must give us justice!”

The two of them dropped to their knees at once, eyes red and faces twisted with grief!

“What happened?” Tuoba Hongyu showed no change of expression.

“Your Highness, my son was once slain by that damned Xu Yang!”

“Just days ago, my son too died by Xu Yang’s hand—Helan Xing saw it with her own eyes!”

“Your Highness, you must not protect Xu Yang any longer! This bastard deserves to die a thousand deaths!”

“My son died not long ago; according to Helan Xing, Xu Yang used some special method to perform Void Shift. Immediately after, traces of the Void Shift appeared in Beixuan City—it must have been that bastard Xu Yang who fled here!”

Wuo Lan lifted his head, hatred in his eyes soaring to the heavens: “Your Highness, Xu Yang is in the Northern Territory; that’s why I came here with Su Rijin, begging you to order his capture, so he can be sliced to death a thousand times over!”

Boundless hatred roared through the land, making one’s skin crawl!

Guo Wenlu too sighed!

Surihan, Wuo Chengfeng, the top ten Blood Generals, top prodigies!

And all fell to Xu Yang’s hand!

Not to mention Guo Wenzhan and Helan Ying!

Guo Wenzhan was the top prodigy of his own Guo Wen Division!

“This Xu Yang is simply the lifelong enemy of our Barbarian Race!”

“Your Highness, no matter how against-the-heavens his Alchemy Skill, he must die; or it won’t quell the people’s rage!” Guo Wenlu added coldly, “That man is a wolf-hearted, dog-lunged fiend who deserves death a thousand times!”

At first, he never thought the traces in the city were left by Xu Yang!

But after Helan Xing came and told all she knew, he immediately suspected Xu Yang!

It was definitely him!

As everyone stared at Tuoba Hongyu, no one noticed Xu Yang’s pupils contract minutely.

Surihan and Wuo Chengfeng’s fathers!

This sight really shocked him!

But soon, Xu Yang’s expression turned weird—are you all really discussing how you’ll kill me, right in front of me?

Tuoba Hongyu narrowed her eyes, saying coldly: “Rest assured, I won’t place any more hope on Xu Yang!”

“So long as he’s caught, Xu Yang will surely die!”

The three immediately brightened with joy, even disbelief—Tuoba Hongyu’s stance had always been so resolute, but she’d agreed so easily this time?

But seeing Tuoba Hongyu didn’t look like she was lying, their delight overflowed!

Apparently, even Her Highness can’t bear it anymore!

Their own sons died at Xu Yang’s hands—they wished they could hack Xu Yang into pieces!

They loathed him utterly!

Now, with no more purposeful protection from Tuoba Hongyu,

It was simply too good to be true.

“Many thanks, Your Highness!”

“You may rise.”

Tuoba Hongyu showed a subtle expression. Xu Yang was right behind her!

Yet she had no intention whatsoever to expose him!

She didn’t want Xu Yang to die so easily.

Besides, if she exposed him now, she had no confidence of success!

Even with Guo Wenlu and the other two combined, still no guarantee!

A remnant soul of a powerhouse, plus Xu Yang’s unfathomable methods, felt like an immense threat!

Perhaps with her bloodline’s spiritual object, she wouldn’t die, but with Xu Yang’s ruthlessness and determination, she’d definitely suffer unimaginable trauma!

Those consequences were something she could not accept.

At this time, the three also cast stealthy glances at Xu Yang, inwardly curious—who was this person, able to stay at the princess’s side?

But though their curiosity was piqued, with Tuoba Hongyu here, none dared to ask more.

Xu Yang kept a calm face, silently asking Gu Jun in his mind: “Teacher, if we kill all these guys, could we escape?”

One Myriad Manifestations Perfection, one late-stage, one mid-stage!

Truth to tell, he could handle everyone but Guo Wenlu by himself.

In fact, compared to Guo Wenlu, the biggest threat here was Tuoba Hongyu!

But, with the deterrence of the Purple Sun Heaven-Burning Fire from before, if things turned violent, Tuoba Hongyu might not dare act directly!

He’d guessed Tuoba Hongyu’s mind perfectly.

As a princess, she wouldn’t dare take such a risk!

Planning to hack me to pieces and call me a criminal—right to my face?

“I rather think, it’s time for family reunion!”
