Chapter 568: Saint Prince’s Mansion

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

The smile on Di Yi’s face immediately disappeared. He said in dismay, “Your only task was to capture two mediocre warriors, but you can’t even accomplish such a simple task. You have let me down this time round, Cyan-robe.”

Cyan-robed Emissary said, “Zhang Ruochen’s forth elder brother and ninth elder sister weren’t strong at all. However, there is a group of mysterious masters secretly protecting them.”

“On the first try, I sent out two teams of glazed knights. However, all of them mysteriously died before they even got the chance to exit the Eastern Holy Land.”

“On the second occasion, I dispatched 37 top-notch killers led by Xu Tiantu and divided them into six groups. Each group took a separate route, but they vanished before arriving at Yunwu Commandery, and we lost contact.”

On hearing this, Di Yi looked somber and said, “You may get up first!”

“Thank you, master,” said Cyan-robed Emissary as she stood up.

Di Yi said thoughtfully, “Xu Tiantu was well-known since 60 years ago, and he ranks seventh amongst the killer of Blood Cloud Tower. Even a killer like him disappeared... There must be some great force that is secretly helping Zhang Ruochen.”

Cyan-robed Emissary said, “It had to be Martial Market Bank. They are the only ones who possess such great power in the Eastern Region; the only ones who can secretly annihilate the masters I sent out.”

Di Yi nodded and said, “What about the third time?”

Cyan-robed Emissary said, “On the third occasion, it was predecessor Half-Saint Yuanyin who personally went to Yunwu Commandery.”

“Since it was predecessor Half-Saint Yuanyin who went, I am sure he will complete his mission,” Yi Di breathed a sigh of relief.

“Whoosh!”

A skinny old man, who looked like an enormous black bat, flew to the boundary of the sacred mountain towards them. He came to rest on a high plateau behind Di Yi and Cyan-robed Emissary.

Di Yi and Cyan-robed Emissary immediately saluted the old man, greeting him, “We pay our respects to you, Half-Saint YuanYing.”

Half-Saint Yuanying’s withered hands were covering his chest. Blood was pouring out from between his fingers, dripping onto the ground.

Di Yi and Cyan-robed Emissary were shocked to find that even Half-Saint Yuanying, someone with a high level of cultivation, could be wounded by his opponent.

“How did this happen, predecessor? Did Martial Market Bank send forth masters of Half-Saint Class just to protect two ordinary warriors?” asked Yi Di.

Half-Saint Yuanying shook his head and replied, “It wasn’t the Martial Market Bank. It was Half-Saint Muhan from Moon Worship Demonic Sect. I did a thorough investigation and found that the two teams we sent forth had all been killed by masters of Moon Worship Demonic Sect.”

“How could it be the Moon Worship Demonic Sect?”

Di Yi was taken aback. He started pondering and said, “Unless... could Zhang Ruochen be related to Moon Worship Demonic Sect?” ????????????????????аd. ????????????

“I am badly injured, so I shouldn’t be talking too much.”

In a flash, Half-Saint Yuanying disappeared from the high plateau and transported himself to a three-story high palace to nurse his wound.

Cyan-robed Emissary was somewhat surprised, and she asked, “Young master, this is very strange.”

Di Yi nodded and said, “There is no reason for Moon Worship Demonic Sect to wage a war against us, the Black Market, for the sake of Zhang Ruochen. Don’t tell me, Zhang Ruochen... no, that’s impossible.”

Cyan-robed Emissary said, “Young master, are you suspecting that Zhang Ruochen is the Demon Son of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect?”

Di Yi shook his head and said, “That shouldn’t be the case. I have acquainted myself with the Demon Son of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect. Their aura is completely different; they are definitely not the same person. However, Zhang Ruochen must have some deeper relationship with Worship Moon Demonic Sect even if he is not the Demon’s son.”

“Cyan-robe, I am handing this matter over to you to investigate and find out the truth.”

“I will do that now.”

Cyan-robed Emissary took three steps backward, turned around and left in an instant.

Di Yi looked down and stared intently at the brightly lit Seventh District once again. He narrowed his eyes and muttered, “Who exactly are you, Zhang Ruochen?”

The Blue Star Emissary approached Di Yi from the back, and said, “Young master, people from the powerful family of Four Saints are now preparing to capture the bride. I’m afraid tomorrow will be full of the hustle and bustle.”

“Really? Hm Hm! Why don’t you go prepare a bridal dowry on my behalf; I’m going to join in the fun in East Region Saint Mansions tomorrow,” Di Yi said, laughing.

How audacious for the young master of the Black Market to go to the East Region Saint Mansions?

People who don’t know Di Yi well enough would think that Di Yi is crazy.

However, Blue Star Emissary was sure his master had a plan before he dared approach Zhang Ruochen and take Huang Yanchen by force.

He must be confident that he would succeed if he dared to go ahead.

...

...

Concubine Lin had already sent for servants to prepare the basic dowry, which filled up ten carriages.

Apart from that, Zhang Ruochen specially prepared three other important gifts and loaded them into three jade caskets respectively.

In the morning when the sun had just risen, Zhang Ruochen got onto his Ember Kylin at the first light of dawn. He traversed through the Avenue of Kings while carrying ten carriages, all trailing behind him as he moved toward East Region Saint Mansions.

Since Zhang Ruochen was on his way to present the bridal dowry and gifts, he had an array of men following him.

Sword Saint Xuanji sent Zhu Hongtao and Wan Ke, the two most senior disciples, to follow Zhang Ruochen to the Chens.

Lei Jing, Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi also escorted Zhang Ruochen on this trip.

In order to establish a close relationship with Zhang Ruochen, the Chen family made sure to go all the way for the upcoming wedding. They had fetched Huang Yanchen into Chen family’s main mansion within the East Region Saint Mansions.

East Region Saint Mansions was situated at the middle of Jinhong Mainland. Although it was said to be a mansion, it was more like an entire city as it covers 800 miles of land.

Zhang Ruochen rode on the back of the Ember Kylin and flew. An hour later, the city wall came into view at the horizon.

The wall was 99 meters tall and was carved out of white jade. Under the sun, it reflected the glaring sunlight which was rather piercing to the eye.

In fact, that was not even the city wall. It was the fence to the courtyard of the East Region Saint Mansions.

Flying closer, Zhang Ruochen could see that within the jade city wall, there were numerous closely packed, luxurious buildings that stretch along the horizon.

Moreover, there was even a holy meridian buried below the jade stone city.

Standing on the periphery of the city, one could easily feel the rapidly increasing concentration of Spiritual Qi. One could even see streaks of Holy Qi rising from the ground and dissipating into the air.

Staring at the gigantic city of jade stone, Chang Qiqi was awed, he could not help but be stunned by the view. He swallowed and asked, “Is this really... the East Region Saint Mansions?”

Zhu Hongtao, the second elder brother apprentice, threw Chang Qiqi a glance and laughed, “Are you intimidated already? To tell you the truth, the East Region Saint Mansions stretches over 800 miles of land. The holy meridian underground is the holy root of the entire East Region Saint City. It had been buried here for over hundreds of millions of years, and its thickness is twice that of Saint Academy’s holy meridian.”

“It is said that the East Region Saint Mansions nurtured a total of 200,000 government soldiers and that even the soldiers with the lowest level of cultivation had reached the Completion of the Earth Realm. All the servants, maids and governors totaled up to over five million, and there were countless precious Spiritual Doses and savage beasts.

“Don’t treat East Region Saint Mansions as a mere mansion, but rather as a small country.”

Lei Jing heaved a sigh. With a serious look in his eyes, he said, “Lord of Eastern Realm, you certainly live up to your reputation.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “This family lasted from the medieval ages until today; it is obvious that they are a strong family. East Region Saint Mansions are but a small part of the Chens’ possessions. It could barely represent the family’s wealth.”

Zhu Hongtao and Wang Ke, who were the second and third elder brother apprentice respectively, nodded in unison.

The East Region Saint Mansions were merely the Chens’ headquarters.

The real strength of the Chen family was its control over the 36 mansions on Eastern Holy Land as well as 12,000 commanderies. On top of that, there were countless base warriors that submitted themselves to the Chens.

It was all because of the Chens’ great power and deep influence on the Eastern Region that even Empress Chi Yao did not dare to touch them.

While they were still 30 miles away from East Region Saint Mansions, Zhang Ruochen and his escort landed and started walking towards the west gate of Saint Prince’s Mansion.

The Chens had already sent people to welcome them. The people lined on both sides of the avenue were from different ethnicities and clans and there were also countless servants among them.

The Ember Kylin Zhang Ruochen was riding on was actually a medium level savage beast. When it transformed into its true body, it was like a moving hill of flames.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

Each step it took leaves a large hole in the ground.

Today, Zhang Ruochen was in high spirits. He was full of vitality and looked dapper. With his hair tied up in a cap, he was dressed in a purple flying dragon robe, girded with a jade belt on his waist, and he wore a pair of colored glaze boots.

Adorned in such apparel, coupled with the fact that he was riding on an awesome Ember Kylin, made Zhang Ruochen look elegant and handsome.

When the young ladies of the Chen Family saw Zhang Ruochen, who was riding on the Kylin, they were all mesmerized. There had to be many who were secretly jealous of Huang Yanchen.

“Zhang Ruochen, the number one on the heaven board, truly match up to his talents.”

“Not only is Zhang Ruochen a sword saint disciple, but he is also very handsome. Who is the lucky foreign girl who has won his heart?”

“That foreign girl is indeed not worthy of the sword saint disciple,” a young woman, whose cultivation had reached the Completion of Heaven Realm, said jealously.

Her name was Chen Lingchan. She was the proud daughter the Chens. Not only was she talented, her good looks could render her one of the three most beautiful woman in the Chen Family, as she was even more beautiful than Yuan Yanchen.

In Chen Lingchan’s opinion, among all the young women of the Chen family, she was the only one who is worthy to be paired with a sword saint disciple. As for Huang Yanchen, she was merely a foreign woman.

After seeing Zhang Ruochen, the other beautiful daughters in the Chen Family started to harbor the same thoughts as Chen Lingchan.

Their noble birth renders them worthy to be paired with a sword saint disciple.

However, for Zhang Ruochen, no matter how the other girls tried to flirt with him, he only had eyes for Huang Yanchen who stood far from him.

Today, Huang Yanchen was exceptionally beautiful. She adorned a long blue dress and her flawless fair skin made her look like a snow fairy.
