The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 534
Chapter 534 Enter The Palace
“Greetings, two Saint Messengers!” Li Qing bowed his head and bowed slightly.
“The two of you are so intimate, it makes me very worried.” Patriarch Lanxin sneered.
Liu Ke’er’s expression returned to solemnity as she said indifferently, “So the two Saint Messengers are still alive? I thought something had happened to both of you.”
Patriarch Lanxin was stunned and asked, “What’s so strange about us living?”
Liu Ke’er faintly smiled, “Then I’m surprised. Since both of you are still alive and well, then where did all of you run off to when the Dao Artifact self-detonated? Why did you leave me alone?”
Patriarch Lanxin felt his heart stifle and he was speechless. In retrospect, what he had done at that time was indeed … somewhat inappropriate.
Leaving behind a higher status Holy Maiden and fleeing for her life alone was a sign that she was afraid of death wherever she went.
Originally, she had intended to aggressively ask Li Qing and Liu Ke’er why they were so intimate. She did not expect that they would be defeated halfway through their conversation.
“Isn’t the Holy Maiden safe and sound?” Patriarch Lanxin said hesitantly.
Liu Ke’er’s expression turned cold, “If Li Qing hadn’t used all of his strength to bring me away from the battlefield, I’m afraid that I would have already died under the remnants of the self-destruct of the Dao Artifact! What’s the crime for the two of you to abandon the Holy Daughter?”
The two Saint Messengers felt extremely aggrieved, but they could not say anything to refute it. Although their strength was far higher than Liu Ke’er’s, their status was inferior and they dared not speak out in anger.
Even a Void Realm expert who was controlled by the Heavenly Demon Seed couldn’t help but feel helpless.
Patriarch Lanxin said, “This is indeed our negligence. I will apologize to Her Lady of the Virgin Mary when we return. However, it seems that your intimate behavior with Li Qing can’t be justified no matter what.”
Liu Ke’er said, “Li Qing saved my life time and time again. What’s so strange about me being closer to him?”
“The two of us will be responsible for protecting the safety of the Holy Maiden. Protector Li Qing, please stay away from us so as not to cause us any misunderstandings.”
“You guys ran away alone in times of danger and left me alone. You’ve already lost my trust. Since you’ve done this for the first time, it’s inevitable that there will be a second time. I think it’s safer to stay by Li Qing’s side.”
The two Saint Messengers exchanged glances, their hearts filled with rage, and their last bit of respect for Liu Ke’er completely disappeared.
Patriarch Lanxin sneered, “Since that’s the case, then we won’t force it. Holy Maiden, please take care of yourself. This palace is the mausoleum of a Dao Realm expert. It’s very dangerous inside. If anything unexpected happens, don’t blame us for not reminding us.”
Even though they didn’t dare to fight with the Holy Maiden, if the Holy Maiden died in an accident in the hall, then it wouldn’t have anything to do with them.
“There’s no need for you two to worry about this.” Liu Ke’er’s face was expressionless.
The two Great Saint Messengers sneered and glanced at the two of them sideways. Then, they turned to leave and sat down on the other side.
“When we return, I will definitely report this matter to the Virgin!” Patriarch Lanxin’s face was filled with indignation.
“This Holy Maiden is too disobedient and doesn’t know how to keep herself clean and hook up with Li Qinggou. How can she be a Holy Maiden with such conduct?” Another Holy Messenger nodded.
Time slowly passed. More and more Xiantian experts finally climbed to the bottom of the abyss and arrived in front of the palace.
The Void Realm experts turned around and didn’t care. A mere group of Xiantian experts were still not in his eyes.
However, they did not intend to expel these people. After all, these Xiantian experts were all soldiers who had survived in the army. Not long ago, they had fought side by side, so it was not easy to do too much.
Moreover, letting these Xiantian experts enter the palace together might be of use at a critical moment…
A few hours later, night fell silently. Suddenly, there was a sound from the door, and then it slowly opened.
The two Void Realm experts of the Tai Yi Gate actually approached the entrance at an unknown time. When the entrance opened, they instantly turned into streaks of light and rushed in, disappearing without a trace.
“What happened?” Only the astonished crowd remained.
“Holy shit, I was tricked by these two people. There’s no need to wait until the full moon night, nor do I need Tai Yi True Essence to guide me. As long as it’s night, the door will automatically open!” Someone cursed.
“Let’s go in and take a look!” Everyone hurriedly followed.
The nine Void Realm experts, along with more than a hundred Xiantian experts, entered the hall. The first thing they encountered was a narrow and long tunnel. On both sides of the wall were carved various patterns of demonic beasts. They were lifelike, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
Li Qing probed with his divine sense and discovered that there were formations on both sides of the wall, which instantly rebounded his divine sense.
Someone couldn’t help but touch the wall with their hands. The shocking thing happened. The demonic beast patterns on the wall were all revived. They opened their big bloody mouths and bit down on the people near the wall.
“Not good!” Everyone was shocked and hurriedly dodged. As a result, there was chaos and countless people were swallowed into the wall.
After a while, the wall regained its calm and turned back into a pattern. The demonic beast that appeared earlier was like an illusion.
“What is this thing? Isn’t it too evil?” Everyone patted their chests with lingering fear.
After this incident, they no longer dared to let down their guard. The mausoleum was filled with dangers, and people could die at any moment.
After all, it was the burial ground of a Dao Realm expert, so naturally, it was impossible for outsiders to easily break into it.
Walking through this corridor, he saw a vast space in front of him. In front of this space, there was a tall platform with a pile of shining treasures. It looked extremely attractive.
Someone couldn’t help but feel greed in their hearts and immediately rushed forward, wanting to take the treasures on the stage. As a result, the space suddenly changed color, and countless sword Qi appeared, tearing this person to shreds in an instant.
“Isn’t this the Tai Yi Sword Formation?” Everyone was shocked.
“I wonder how powerful it is. Can we withstand it?” Someone whispered to himself.
“Isn’t it easy to find someone to give it a try?” Nangong Ze laughed loudly and pointed his finger, “All ten of you, stand out and enter the Tai Yi Sword Formation to test your power!”
The ten people who were pointed at turned pale and trembled, “Fu, are you asking us to die?”
“There might be a chance of survival if I go in. If I don’t choose to go, I’ll crush you with one finger right now.” Nangong Ze said fiercely.
“At most, I’ll fight you!” Someone shouted, then turned around and fled.
In the end, Nangong Ze grabbed him and threw him into the sword formation, tearing him into pieces.
Seeing this scene, the remaining people naturally did not dare to resist. They could only obediently form a team of ten and set up a God Killing Battle Formation to enter the Tai Yi Sword Formation.
Instantly, countless sword qi rose up and slashed onto the God Killing Battle Formation. In just a few breaths of time, the Battle Formation collapsed and was completely wiped out.
Nangong Ze frowned. “It only lasted for a few breaths …”
He turned around and shouted at all the Xiantian experts, “All of you, enter and form a God Killing Battle Formation. Let’s see how powerful it is!”
Everyone was in an uproar, “Great Fu, you want everyone to die. We have fought under your command for so long, why are we so ruthless?”
“Cut the crap. If you don’t go in, you’re dead! You choose for yourselves!”
Everyone was furious, but there was nothing they could do. The nine Void Realm experts surrounded them faintly, and it was impossible for them to escape.
They were all Xiantian Seventh Layer and above experts. Originally, their status wasn’t low, but now, they were like cattle and sheep in captivity. They were chased to the front and arranged in a God Killing Battle Formation.
“There are still two over there!” Nangong Ze pointed.
He was referring to Li Qing and Liu Ke’er!
