Divine King of Honour

```

At last, Xu Nian still hit the road with the Bull Demon King.

The Bull Demon King refused to hide his two horns.

Xu Nian had no choice but to let him be.

However, the Bull Demon King also knew that swaggering through the city with his big horns was not a good idea, so he shortened them quite a bit.

And covered them with thick hair.

If one didn’t look closely, it was difficult for the average person to notice.

As such, they didn’t attract too much attention.

Xu Nian and the Bull Demon King hurried towards the direction of the Imperial Capital.

But before long, Xu Nian and his companion encountered an incident.

A figure was seen flying towards them.

The figure was flying somewhat erratically, and her dress was spotted with fresh blood.

She seemed to be seriously injured.

Behind her, three young men were in pursuit.

Clearly, they were trying to kill the injured woman.

The woman, not expecting to encounter someone in the air, almost crashed into Xu Nian in her panic.

"Ah!"

Moreover, since she was seriously injured, she couldn’t control her spiritual energy, and she started to plummet towards the ground.

Xu Nian’s gaze sharpened, and he immediately flashed, appearing below the woman.

Just as she was about to hit the ground, he caught her in his arms.

It was not until this moment that Xu Nian could see the woman’s appearance clearly.

The woman was beautiful with fair, smooth skin.

Most importantly, she had reached the Six-star Battle King Realm.

Considering she was only around twenty-four years old but had already reached Six-star Battle King,

it was indeed a rare occurrence.

"Are you okay?" Xu Nian set the woman down.

The woman hastily took a couple of steps back.

However, due to her severe injuries, blood still seeped from her mouth.

Xu Nian had already detected with his spiritual sense that many of the woman’s meridians were damaged.

By rights, she shouldn’t operate her spiritual energy anymore as it would only worsen her injuries.

But to escape from her pursuers, she had to forcibly circulate it.

That had led to the current signs of rupturing in her meridians.

The woman’s complexion was not good.

Having already had difficulty escaping, her encounter with Xu Nian had caused a further delay.

The people chasing her could easily catch up now.

"I’m fine, you guys go ahead!" the woman said coldly.

With that, she turned to leave.

Seeing this, Xu Nian’s face revealed a trace of a smile.

The woman’s cold words had surprisingly won quite a bit of Xu Nian’s favor.

Clearly, she was facing pursuers and did not want to involve Xu Nian in her troubles.

Initially delayed by Xu Nian, she now did not want to implicate them further. Discover more stories at Freewebnovel

Such a kind-hearted woman was really rare.

The woman did not know that this small act of hers had directly saved her life.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

But before the young woman could get far, three sounds of breaking the air came.

Three figures landed around Xu Nian and the young woman.

Xu Nian glanced at them, and these people were all of Battle King Level Cultivation.

Among them, two were Eight-star Battle Kings, while another was a Nine-star Battle King Level.

Facing such strong opponents, the fact that this young woman had managed to hold on for so long was impressive.

It was undeniable that the woman had extraordinary capabilities.

As the three men surrounded her, the young woman’s eyes turned icy cold.

"Ice Spirit Princess, where do you think you can escape to now?" The leading Nine-star Battle King said with a light laugh as he looked at the young woman.

"Princess?"

Xu Nian was taken aback.

```

Was the woman before him actually a princess?

Then, does that mean she is a member of the Imperial Family?

This took Xu Nian by surprise.

He had not expected to encounter the Imperial Princess while he was on his way to the Imperial Capital.

Moreover, the Imperial Princess was being chased for assassination?

Xu Nian couldn’t help but lament the irony of fate.

"You from Tianji Pavilion must be insane to intercept me. If my father, the Emperor, finds out, your entire Tianji Pavilion will be annihilated," Princess Ice Spirit said coldly.

There was a thick anger in her voice.

Tianji Pavilion?

What kind of power is that?

He had never heard of such a force within the empire!

Of course, it was normal for Xu Nian not to have heard of it.

Some powers exist in the dark, nurtured secretly by certain individuals.

It was very likely that Tianji Pavilion was one of them.

"Haha, Princess, are you joking? This is within East Field County. How would the Emperor know, and besides, the Emperor is in seclusion now and couldn’t possibly know you’re in danger. As long as we kill you and destroy the body and evidence, who would know it was us from Tianji Pavilion?" The leader man laughed heartily.

His eyes were filled with intense madness.

"You..." Upon hearing this, Princess Ice Spirit was immediately furious.

Xu Nian, on the other hand, found it almost amusing.

He was standing right there, and yet these three people completely ignored him.

Destroy the body and evidence?

Doesn’t that mean they would also need to kill him to silence him?

It seemed he would have to intervene today, whether he liked it or not.

"Ahem!"

Xu Nian coughed deliberately.

Only then did the three assassins turn to look at Xu Nian.

Although they had noticed another person from the start,

their attention had been entirely focused on Princess Ice Spirit.

Now, hearing Xu Nian cough, they finally sized him up.

The young woman, hearing Xu Nian’s cough, slightly furrowed her brows.

This young man would probably get involved.

These people would never let him leave anyway.

However, she couldn’t help it, so she mentally apologized to Xu Nian.

"Young man, what do you want to do?" The leader man asked, his gaze filled with disdain.

They had not seen Xu Nian flying; looking at his young age, they naturally thought his cultivation wasn’t very high.

"Well, I have nothing to do with this. Can I leave now?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.

"Leave? Boy, do you think we’ll let you leave?" The leader man laughed out loud, then ordered his two subordinates, "Kill him!"

One of the two Eight-star War Kings, a skinny man, glanced at Xu Nian, and a battle saber appeared in his hand, coming straight down towards Xu Nian.

In his view, this slash would surely split the young man in half.

"Wait!"

However, just as the Eight-star War King’s saber was about to strike Xu Nian, Xu Nian suddenly shouted out.

"Young man, have you anything else to say?" The leader asked.

"You can’t kill me, I’ve raised a bull, and it’s very ferocious. If you kill me, it will devour all of you," Xu Nian said with a smile.

The three assassins burst out laughing, their eyes filled with ridicule.

A bull?

They thought the young man would say something substantial.

But soon, their laughter stopped abruptly.

Their necks stiffly turned behind them.

As they saw the scene before them, their faces changed drastically.

"A Saint Level Demon Beast?"

The leader shivered, his hands trembling.

The young woman’s face also showed utter surprise.

There stood a giant black bull, as huge as a mountain, behind them.

Just its height reached dozens of meters, and its length was a terrifying hundred meters.

Most crucially, the aura exuding from the giant bull had the presence of Saint Level.
