C47 (2/2)

After entering the Divine Palace, Yun Jian realized that it was just as Leng Jun had said, the profound energy's internal and external defenses had indeed been strengthened by several times. However, this did not stop him from saving the life of his fiancee, as he continued to search for the whereabouts of those beautiful ladies from one courtyard to another within the Divine Palace.

Although Yun Jian had successfully dodged the patrols of the ordinary Divine Officer, he was still unable to dodge the eyes and ears of the three Sword Gods within the Divine Palace. Because of the theft of the gold-threaded gem clothing, the Divine King was furious and ordered the three of them to join the night watch. And they had already discovered Yun Jian not long after he had infiltrated their Divine Palace.

Originally, Yun Jian had no way of escaping the encirclement of the three Sword Gods. Fortunately, one of the three people was the previous generation Sect Master of the Xi Hui Sect, Jin Shan Shi. Golden Mountain Stone recognised Yun Jian, and because he knew of Yun Jian's objective in coming here, he decided to help him in secret. This allowed Yun Jian to have the chance to escape. Even so, Yun Jian was still struck.

The sword wound was nothing more than a feint from the Golden Mountain Stone. The truth was that the sword did not pierce too deeply into him. It was just that the moment the treasured sword pierced into him, Jin Shan Shi quietly informed Yun Jian that the fiancee he was looking for had passed away. He told him not to worry anymore and to leave as soon as possible.

When Yun Jian suddenly heard the news of his fiancee's death, all of his hopes turned into ashes in an instant.

The pain in his body allowed Yun Jian to clear his head, but the pain in his heart made him even more perplexed. His fiancee was already dead, and he knew that he could no longer implicate his own clan, nor could he implicate the previous generation of Sect Master who had secretly helped him.

Thinking back to the pain, Yun Jian felt extremely exhausted, and he fell asleep once again.

Leng Jun and Hua Linglong left the room together, afraid that they would disturb Yun Jian.

Arriving at the center of the courtyard, Leng Jun let out a long exhale of the stifled anger in his heart, and then said to Hua Linglong: ”Big Brother Hua, Brother Yun, please take good care of me while I settle down here for the time being. Currently, Divine Martial City was searching throughout the entire area, and it was unknown when they would reach this place. Looks like I have to think of a way to send Brother Yun out of the city as soon as possible. ”

Hua Linglong shook his head and said: ”This is bad, Brother Yun's injuries are quite severe, if you were to recklessly move about, I'm afraid your injuries will worsen. As for the search of the city, you can rest assured. Those responsible for the city search are all members of the Guard Regiment. As long as I greet them, it'll be fine. Besides, this small courtyard was reserved by you, so you don't know how useful your name is. Ever since Vice Commander Tian An brought you to the large ”Light Smoke Hall”, I believe no city guards within the Divine Martial City have dared to offend you. ”

Leng Jun's face reddened, and said: ”Big Brother Hua, stop joking with me. You just said that I am infamous within the Divine Martial City right now, and I am a rapist who is being beaten up.”

”Don't worry, only commoners who don't know anything would think that way. How much influence you have now is known only to us knowledgeable guards. ”

Hearing that Hua Linglong said that he was well-informed, Leng Jun suddenly had an idea, and said: ”Brother Hua, then I will trouble you to investigate the origin of these rapist. Since this matter is already related to me, I cannot just ignore it. ”

Hua Linglong nodded and said: ”Brother, you are right, we must definitely find this group of people. Looks like big brother guessed wrongly, people from the Divine Palace would not make such a big deal out of this. If we don't get to the bottom of this as soon as possible, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future. ”

”That's right, Big Brother Hua, I still have something to do. I might be out for a few days, so Brother Yun will probably have to leave it for you to take care of.”

”Don't worry, with big brother here, it won't be a problem.”
