Dragon Martial Sword Supreme
Chapter 412: Going Separate Ways
"How noisy. Fortunately, they fled quickly, otherwise I might not have been able to resist striking again."
Master Martial Artist Yu watched the rapidly retreating figures with a disdainful smirk.
"We shouldn't stay here for long, let's go as well."
Zhao Letian sheathed his Mid-grade Spiritual Weapon Longsword, speaking with a grave tone.
The noise from the recent battle was quite loud, and it was very likely that it had attracted the attention of others.
"Hm."
Master Martial Artist Yu nodded and then, together with Zhao Letian, they transformed into two streaks of light, heading straight for the Four Directions Pavilion.
At the same time, on a distant mountain peak, a group of Martial Artists with powerful auras were silently observing the receding figures of Zhao Letian and his companion.
If Zhao Letian was here, he would have recognized at a glance that the leader of this group was none other than the second Prince of Dajin Country, Ye Chenxiao.
And the people behind him were all clad in tight black clothes, all of them High-level Sect Martial Realm experts.
"What a Zhao Letian, to think that a man with a sword can defeat the top five prodigies, this Prince indeed did not misjudge, seeking an alliance with you was the right choice."
Ye Chenxiao couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, his eyes betraying a complex expression.
Not long ago, when Yu Wenhui and Xiao Yan leaked the whereabouts of Zhao Letian, they also informed Ye Chenxiao.
The two of them had thought that Ye Chenxiao also wanted Zhao Letian dead; after all, when Zhao Letian was attacked in Dajin Country, Ye Chenxiao did not intervene to stop it, clearly wanting Zhao Letian dead.
However, they did not know that Ye Chenxiao had already formed an alliance with Zhao Letian.
Ye Chenxiao brought this group of High-level Sect Martial Realm experts not to kill Zhao Letian, but to protect him.
What Ye Chenxiao didn't expect was that Zhao Letian and Master Martial Artist Yu were so formidable that there was no need for him to lift a finger to help, as the battle had already ended. This соntеnt оriginаtеs frоm М1VLЕМРYR, Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе.
Especially Zhao Letian's strength, which was far beyond Ye Chenxiao's expectations.
When Ye Chenxiao saw Zhao Letian unleashing the Invincible Sword, he couldn't help but question himself if he could withstand Zhao Letian's sword.
And the answer was uncertain unless he personally fought against Zhao Letian.
Logically speaking, Ye Chenxiao and Zhao Letian are now on the same side, and Ye Chenxiao should be pleased with Zhao Letian's strength, as this would give them a better chance in the future against Crown Prince Ye Zhenxiao.
However, at this moment, Ye Chenxiao couldn't feel any joy at all, and even sensed a hint of danger.
Previously, in his eyes, only the Crown Prince Ye Zhenxiao from the entire Dajin Royal Family was worthy to be his opponent.
But now, there was Zhao Letian.
Zhao Letian's current strength was enough for him to take seriously.
"Fortunately, back then I had Zhao Letian swear a Heavenly Dao Oath that he would not compete with me for the throne; otherwise, with his talent and strength, plus that person's emphasis on him and his mother, his threat to me might even surpass Ye Zhenxiao."
Ye Chenxiao shook his head with a wry smile, feeling secretly fortunate.
If Zhao Letian had not sworn the Heavenly Dao Oath, with the terrifying strength he displayed today, Ye Chenxiao would have killed him on the spot, regardless of the cost.
After pondering for a while, Ye Chenxiao led his subordinates away.
...
Above the Four Directions Pavilion, two streaks of light that were speeding through suddenly came to a halt.
One of them was Zhao Letian, with wings flapping, hovering in the sky.
And the other, naturally, was Master Yu.
"Young man, now that you've reached this place, you are safe, and I too have fulfilled my promise to you. Now, it should be time for you to fulfill your promise, right?"
Master Yu stood with his hands clasped behind his back in the void, saying with a slight smile.
He had originally thought that he would have to spend ten years at Zhao Letian's side, a waste of time.
But to his surprise, Zhao Letian had provoked so many enemies that in just a few short months, he had exhausted the three opportunities for Master Yu to come to his aid.
In just a few months, he had earned an ancient elixir recipe that had long been lost, which was an incredibly lucrative gain, and naturally, he was very pleased.
"Thank you, Master, for your protection during this time. Here is the elixir recipe you wanted."
Zhao Letian gave a faint smile, holding his fists in gratitude, and then with a flash of light in his hand, he took out a Jade Scroll and handed it to Master Yu.
The elixir recipe recorded in that Jade Scroll was, of course, for the Life Extension Pill.
Although Zhao Letian felt very depressed about using up the three chances so quickly,
He would still fulfill the promise he made to Master Yu.
"As I thought, it is the elixir recipe for the Life Extension Pill. Young man, you're really quite generous. Such a supreme treasure, and you handed it over to me without batting an eyelid. I'm impressed. Such magnanimity, even I, myself, find humbling."
Master Yu took a look at the content recorded on the Jade Scroll and immediately showed an excited expression, speaking with great elation.
As a third-level Alchemist, he was much wealthier than his martial peers.
In fact, even compared to King-level Experts, his wealth did not pale in comparison.
Yet even so, he would not easily hand over an elixir recipe as valuable as the Life Extension Pill's for a trade, as that would cause him great heartache.
However, Zhao Letian seemed unexpectedly calm, as if he didn't care at all about this invaluable elixir recipe.
"Just a simple elixir recipe, really not worth mentioning. If Master is willing to stay by my side, the benefits you'll receive in the future will definitely far surpass this elixir recipe."
Zhao Letian shook his head and smiled, speaking indifferently.
He was telling the truth; while the elixir recipe for the Life Extension Pill was indeed precious in the outside world, it wasn't considered much in the memories inherited from the Dragon Clan, as he possessed far more valuable treasures.
Zhao Letian was not a stingy person. If Master Yu was willing to continue serving him, Letian would definitely not let Master Yu be treated unfairly.
"Ha ha, young man, if I didn't know you better, I definitely wouldn't believe your words. I have no doubt that you can produce better treasures, but unfortunately for me right now, finding an opportunity to break through to the King-level is my most pressing matter. Otherwise, I will ultimately perish and all will be for naught. This opportunity must be sought by myself, and no treasure can aid me with that. Next, I plan to travel and explore. Once the journey to the Imperial Secret Realm is over, if I haven't advanced to the King-level and am still alive, I will definitely come to find you outside the Secret Realm. At that time, I hope you'll also come out alive; then, we can explore that unknown Secret Realm together."
Master Yu shook his head and smiled.
"Since Master is determined, I will not say more. I wish you a smooth breakthrough to the King-level."
Zhao Letian smiled faintly, holding his fists in salute.
"Ha ha, I hope so. I am off now, until we meet again if fate wills it."
Master Yu laughed heartily, and speaking thus, he turned into a streak of astonishingly fast light and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
