2717 The Sixth Prince of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom!

After Duan Ling Tian left Lyu City, formerly known as Qi Lyu City, he made his way to the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.


Meanwhile, Nangong Li, who had escaped from Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er with a Drifting Light Shadow Talisman, finally saw his savior after hiding in a cave for a time.


“Father, you… Why did you personally come?” Nangong Li did not expect his father, the Clan Leader of the Nangong clan, would come instead of sending men over.


Nangong Zheng, Nangong Li’s father, was a middle-aged man with an average build and average looks. However, his eyes glinted with a hint of sharpness and shrewdness. At this moment, his expression was slightly gloomy. “Li’er, what happened? Didn’t I send two elders out with you?”

Although Nangong Li had sent a Communication Celestial Talisman to ask Nangong Zheng to send some men to escort him home because he had encountered danger, Nangong Zheng still did not know the details of what had happened.


“Father, the two elders are dead. Moreover, Nangong Zhi and Nangong You are dead as well. The only reason I’m alive is due to the Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman you gave me.”


“You used Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman?” Nanggong Zheng’s eyes widened as soon as he heard his son’s words. The expressions of the two elders he had brought along with him changed as well.


The Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman was an exceptionally precious Celestial Talisman. At the very least, for the Nangong clan, it was exceptionally precious. There were only two of such talismans in the clan after they expended a lot of effort and spent a lot of money to obtain them. Due to how precious they were, one of the talismans was in the possession of Nangong Zheng, the Clan Leader of the Nangong clan, while the other was given to his son.


Naturally, when they heard that Nangong Li had used the Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman, they felt a slight heartache.


Nangong Zheng’s expression was grave as he asked, “So, what happened?” Since the two elders he had sent out to protect his son were dead, and his son had to resort to using the Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman, he had no doubt his son had encountered a great danger.


Nangong Li did not dare to lie to his father and honestly recounted what happened.


Upon hearing Nangong Li’s words, a furious expression appeared on Nangong Zheng’s face. It seemed as though he wanted to slap his son as he said in a voice that grew increasingly loud, “What?! All this trouble because of a woman? Moreover, you’re the one who provoked the other party first?”


Nangong Li spoke up to defend himself. “Father, that woman is no ordinary woman. Not only is she extremely powerful, but her appearance is far superior to all the women I’ve seen. Other women are nothing compared to her!”


Then, a Floating Image Pearl appeared in Nangong Li’s hand as he continued to say, “Fortunately, I used a Floating Image Pearl when the two elders acted. Although it only recorded the moments before their deaths, we should be able to see the woman.”


After Nangong Li sent his Celestial Origin Energy into the Floating Image Pearl, it projected the scene it had recorded.


The recording showed a purple-clad young man and a white-robed young woman.


As soon as the recording appeared, Nangong Zheng and the two elders behind him could not help but look at the white-robed young woman. Moreover, they found it difficult to look away from her.


This white-robed young woman was too beautiful! Elegantly arched eyebrows, limpid eyes like water, tall, and graceful. Her face seemed to be sculpted by the gods themselves. It was perfect. Clad in a thin white robe, she emitted a cold and unapproachable aura. Her bearing made her seem as though she was a heavenly fairy who had descended to the mortal world.


Regardless if it was Nangong Zheng or the two elders behind him, they did not expect that after living for such a long time, their hearts that had become as still as a lake would move after seeing a woman. They were dazzled by her appearance.


“If I encountered her when I was young, I wouldn’t have been able to hold back.”



When the two elders regained their senses, they sighed in unison.


Nangong Zheng took a deep breath.


One of the elders said warily, “Who are the man and woman?!”


Nangong Zheng fiercely said, “Regardless of who they are, we can’t let this matter go since they killed members of the Nangong clan!” He turned to look at his son and said, “When we return, look for the Sixth Prince and show him the recording of the Floating Image Pearl. I’m sure the white-robed woman will catch his interest. He’ll definitely use all his means to obtain her!” A hint of slyness flashed in his eyes when he spoke.


Nangong Zheng intended to use the Sixth Prince. He was convinced that with the Sixth Prince’s character, the Sixth Prince would definitely spare no effort to obtain the white-robed young woman once he saw her.


Indeed, everything unfolded as Nangong Zheng had predicted.


When Nangong Li returned to the capital of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom and showed the recording of the Floating Image Pearl to the Sixth Prince, the latter’s eyes lit up and his breathing quickened. He even rose from his seat and flew up to Nangong Li.

The Sixth Prince grabbed Nangong Li’s collar and raised him in the air, asking anxiously, “Nangong Li… This woman… Who is she?”


The Sixth Prince wore a long golden robe. He looked frail and had a slightly gloomy countenance. However, based on his speed earlier, it was obvious he was not as frail as he looked.


“Nangong Li, the Sixth Prince is talking to you!”


“Nangong Li, what are you spacing out for? Answer the Sixth Prince!”


Upon seeing Nangong Li who was stunned speechless by the Sixth Prince’s aggression, a group of young men dressed in luxurious robes who were standing next to the Sixth Prince began to speak up one after another, admonishing Nangong Li. These young men were all disciples of the capital’s mightiest sects and clans. The forces behind these young men were not any weaker than the Nangong clan.


Nangong Li said with a bitter smile on his face, “Sixth Prince, I have no idea who she is either… I just accidentally encountered her when I was out…”


A young man who did not get along with Nangong Li said with a sneer, “Nangoing Li, you didn’t bring her back and hide her from the Sixth Prince, did you?”


Nangong Li saw the Sixth Prince’s eyes flashed coldly as soon as the young man had spoken. He hastily said, “Sixth prince, if I had brought her back, I would’ve immediately offered her to you. In fact, when I encountered her, my first thought is to bring her back to you. Alas, not only did I fail to bring her back, but I lost two elders and two disciples from the clan and even had to use a Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman to escape.”


Upon hearing Nangong Li’s words, the Sixth Prince loosened his grip on Nangong Li’s collar. “I don’t think you have the guts to lie to me…” Then, a Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman appeared in his hand before he casually tossed it on the floor next to Nangong Li. He said indifferently, “Take this Drifting Light and Shadow Talisman as a reward from me. If I manage to find her in the future, you’ll be handsomely rewarded!”


Nangong Li stooped down to pick up the talisman and reverently said, “Many thanks, Sixth Prince! Many thanks!”


On the same day, the Sixth Prince ordered the experts under him to track the white-robed woman and even had her portraits drawn by master painters.


For this reason, it did not take long before everyone in the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom knew about the Sixth Prince searching for a peerless beauty. They also knew the woman was not weak. She was even stronger than the two elders from the Nangong clan who were yellow-rank Overarching Golden Celestials. However, this did not put people off from searching for the woman. After all, if they managed to find her or even some clues that led to her whereabouts, they would be handsomely rewarded by the Sixth Prince.



If Duan Ling Tian had left the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom a bit later, he would have found that countless portraits of Huan’er were circulating in the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom.


At this moment, Duan Ling Tian had already entered the territory of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. He was in the outskirts of the kingdom’s capital, and it did not take long before he arrived in the capital.


Although the capital of Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom’s buildings looked rather similar to the buildings in other cities, there was a majestic air about them that stunned Duan Ling Tian.


“Big Brother Ling Tian… this… this place is so big.” A trace of astonishment could be seen in Huan’er’s limpid eyes. When she recovered from the shock, an expression of excitement appeared on her face immediately. Looking like a child, she clapped her hands gleefully as she said, “There must be many fun and interesting things in such a big city!”
