Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3341: A Ruler’s Assassination Attempt

Several dozen experts native to the Ice Pole Plane stood at the imposing entrance of the Ice Goddess Hall. They all exchanged glances sternly and after a slight hesitation, they all cupped their fists towards the Snow Goddess who sat at the entrance in dejection, before carefully leaving.

They all knew the Snow Goddess’ personality and they could tell that the Snow Goddess was not in a good mood, so none of them dared to say anything, afraid that they would say something wrong and trigger the Snow Goddess’ nerves, leading to problems for themselves.

With that, all of the experts who had travelled through outer space from planet Cangmang perished. None of them were spared.

The deaths immediately lead to a sharp decline in planet Cangmang’s strength. They were truly weakened.

At the same time, in an unknown space in the Saints’ World, the Martial Soul Mountain was covered in a thick layer of ice, like an iceberg that would never melt, floating through outer space alone.

Hun Zang, Chu Jian, Yue Chao, Yun Ziting, Su Qi, Bai Rufeng and Qingshan, the seven successors of the Martial Soul lineage, were all frozen in the interior of the Martial Soul Mountain. They could not leave the place.

A thousand kilometres away from the Martial Soul Mountain, a middle-aged woman in a purple dressed hovered in outer space, maintaining the same distance from the Martial Soul Mountain the entire time.

She was the Rain Abbess, but that was not her in person. Instead, it was one of her soul clones that constantly protected the Martial Soul Mountain

At this moment, the Laws of Ice around the Martial Soul Mountain was disturbed, before receding like the tide. In the blink of an eye, it was completely gone.

With the Laws of Ice gone, the layer of ice over the Martial Soul Mountain melted like snow under the scorching sun and flowed away as streams.

The Rain Abbess was the first to be alarmed by what was happening to the Martial Soul mountain. She immediately opened her eyes and gazed at the melting ice on the Martial Soul Mountain in interest. She was puzzled.

“The seal over the Martial Soul Mountain has been released? That’s strange. Just what has happened that’s made the Snow Goddess remove the seal prematurely?” The Rain Abbess murmured to herself as she frowned deeply.

She did not believe it was necessarily good news that the Martial Soul Mountain lost its seal now of all times.

Very soon, all of the ice on the Martial Soul Mountain vanished completely. As soon as the seal was removed, Hun Zang and the others trapped in the Martial Soul Mountain immediately burst out.

The Rain Abbess waved her hand and the space within a hundred thousand kilometres of her was reduced to chaos. Powerful Laws of Space permeated the place, isolating here from the outside world.

The successors of the Martial Soul lineage were all trapped in this space.

Even though she was just a soul clone, this clone was clearly particularly powerful. Just a single clone was enough to trap everyone from the Martial Soul lineage.

The Rain Abbess silently appeared before them. Her gaze was locked on Hun Zang the entire time, completely ignoring the other people from the Martial Soul lineage.

Seeing how the Rain Abbess suddenly appeared, Chu Jian, Yue Chao, Yun Ziting, Su Qi, Bai Rufeng and Qing Shan all looked at one another, glancing back and forth between the Rain Abbess and Hun Zang. Their expressions became rather strange.

In the past, none of them knew about Hun Zang’s relationship with the Rain Abbess. Only until after what occurred on the Ice Pole Plane did the ambiguous relationship between Hun Zang and the Rain Abbess cease to be a secret.

“What are you doing?” Hun Zang gazed at the space disturbed by the Rain Abbess and furrowed his brows. He was puzzled.

The Rain Abbess’ expression was mixed. She said, “Something terrible has occurred during the years that the Martial Soul Mountain was sealed in ice. I did not plan on telling you this, but I know I can’t keep it hidden from you for too long.”

“What is it?” Hun Zang’s heart sank slightly. He had a bad feeling.

“Jian Chen’s dead,” the Rain Abbess said slowly.

When they heard that, everyone from the Martial Soul lineage immediately changed drastically in expression. Shortly afterwards, killing intent erupted and rampaged through the space there.

“What did you say? Jian Chen’s dead?” Hun Zang bellowed furiously. He arrived before the Rain Abbess in a flash. His eyes were completely bloody, staring straight at the Rain Abbess. His voice became as ferocious as a demon from hell, “Who is it? Who killed him? How did he die?”

Chu Jian, Yue Chao, Yun Ziting, Su Qi, Bai Rufeng and Qing Shan’s faces were all frosty as well, filled with killing intent.

The Rain Abbess sighed gently, “Forget about revenge. The person who killed him was the sovereign from the Heavenly Palaceo of Bisheng.”

Theft is never good, try looking at NovelF(ull). Net.

“The Anatta Grand Exalt? No, that’s impossible. Why would the Anatta Grand Exalt kill eighth junior brother?” Hun Zang’s eyes narrowed in disbelief.

“Jian Chen is the Anatta Grand Exalt’s fruit of ways, The Anatta Grand Exalt used Jian Chen to enter the Way of Love, before killing Jian Chen to comprehend the Way of Heartlessness. Hun Zang, you should be aware that his fate was set the moment he became Anatta’s fruit of ways. No one could save him,” the Rain Abbess sighed gently.

“Eighth junior brother is the Anatta Grand Exalt’s fruit of ways? Why? Why?”

Everyone from the Martial Soul lineage was dispirited when they heard the Rain Abbess’ explanation. If the person who murdered Jian Chen was the Anatta Grand Exalt, how were they supposed to get revenge?

Even if they wanted to revenge, they were not capable.

……

…

The Wood Spirits World.

Time flew and in the blink of an eye, Jian Chen had already roamed the Peace region for an entire decade.

During these ten years, he sat within the carriage and visited every single region and city of the Peace region under the accompaniment of his personal guards.

He carefully sensed every single place he visited, searching for any secrets that the Peace region might have been hiding.

During the decade, he received a tremendous amount of tax revenue from the nine imperial cities. It was all converted into their corresponding resources and devoted to the farming of Lifesoul Flowers. As a result, the first harvest of Lifesoul Flowers that he ordered Xia Jianming to plant grew at an alarming rate.

On this day, Jian Chen rode the carriage into a mountain range, flying at a low range over the rising and falling terrain.

But at this moment, Jian Chen suddenly snapped his eyes open and bellowed out, “Stop here!”

The carriage immediately stopped, remaining ten metres above the ground. The personal guards clustered around it sternly.

Jian Chen left the carriage. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at a certain place below.

Or more accurately, he stared into the ground.

When he passed there, he could closely sense a slightly different disturbance in the depths of the ground. This disturbance could not be detected with the senses of the soul. It could only be detected with his usual senses at a close range.

In the next moment, Jian Chen vanished. He immediately appeared several thousand metres below the surface through the Laws of Space.

Shortly afterwards, the power of space pulsed and all of the rock and soil in the surroundings were pushed aside. Where Jian Chen stood immediately turned into a cavern.

Right before him, his line of vision twisted and the space blurred. A feeble energy radiated from there.

“This is a spatial passageway similar to a teleportation gate. It’s a passageway that can appear anywhere and vanish at any moment.” Jian Chen’s eyes lit up slightly as he stared at the blurry space.

But at this moment, something unexpected occurred. A sword that shone coldly suddenly appeared out of nowhere, thrusting towards Jian Chen’s head with lightning speed.

It was a medium quality god artifact with all of its pressure withdrawn, having been concealed intentionally. It darted out like a venomous snake, launching a lethal strike at Jian Chen at a critical moment.

The sword moved extremely quickly, reaching Jian Chen’s forehead in a single instance. The cold glint from the sharp sword had already torn through Jian Chen’s Chaotic Body, piercing his forehead and immediately drawing blood.
