Wu Shattered Star River

“They’re retreating! They’re retreating! The Divine Race and the Demon Race are both retreating!”

After what felt like forever, a cultivator rushed over, shouting with joy to the crowd: “The Divine Race and Demon Race armies have withdrawn from below Serene Void Mountain! There are only a few dozen scouts lurking in the nearby mountains.”

Jiang Han and the others exchanged glances, all feeling a sense of relief.

They had heard the Violetgold Divine Race member order the Divine Race to withdraw and pursue the Little Imperial Grandson, so Lu Xingyu waited a moment and arranged for a cultivator to go down and investigate.

They didn't expect the Divine Race and Demon Race armies to actually retreat, and to retreat so cleanly.

With the Divine Race and Demon Race gone, that meant they were completely safe, with no more worries about their lives.

They could stay here in peace, waiting for the time to come when they would be automatically teleported out.

Outside the secret realm were Immortal Emperor Kun Shan and many other powerhouses from the Heavenly Court. Once they were out, they would naturally be safe.

Huang Ling pondered for a moment and said, “The Divine Race and Demon Race have gone to pursue the Little Imperial Grandson. Should we… go help?”

“Uh…”

Huang Ling's words caused the cultivators to fall silent. Lu Xingyu, Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan, and Immortal Maiden Bi Yao's expressions changed, their hearts complex.

The cultivators who remained here were, to varying degrees, dissatisfied and resentful towards the Little Imperial Grandson.

The Little Imperial Grandson only cared about escaping himself, abandoning them. If it weren't for Jiang Han, they would all be dead, not a single one would have survived, including Lu Xingyu, Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan, and the others.

They were now very safe, and now Huang Ling wanted them to go down the mountain to help the Little Imperial Grandson? Naturally, everyone resisted from the bottom of their hearts.

The problem was…

The Little Imperial Grandson's status was, after all, extraordinary. He was the Jade Emperor's grandson. If they knew the Little Imperial Grandson was in trouble and didn't go to rescue him, then if the matter were to spread back to the Heavenly Court, it would definitely have an impact on their families.

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan, Immortal Maiden Bi Yao, and Lu Xingyu were silent for a moment, their gazes turning to Jiang Han.

A faint mockery appeared on the corners of Jiang Han's lips, the disdain in his eyes exceptionally obvious.

Let him go save the Little Imperial Grandson?

If he had the chance, he would have loved to chop this bastard to death with one strike.

He and Immortal Venerable Wu Yun and Yu Xi had already discussed it. They weren't planning to return to the Heavenly Court, but to go to the Ancient God Star Region. So what did he have to worry about?

“That’s not right!”

Jiang Han's heart suddenly stirred. Perhaps… he could pretend to save people, and then find an opportunity to kill Xing Gu and Qu Qiu Yin?

It would be best to do it inside the secret realm. Once they were out, there wouldn't be such a good opportunity.

“Forget it!”

Jiang Han quickly rejected this idea. Xing Gu and Qu Qiu Yin were definitely with the Little Imperial Grandson. Surrounded by a group of Immortal Venerables, as well as Wei Wushen, the first on the Hidden Dragon List, they wouldn't be easy to kill.

Moreover, unless he killed everyone from the Heavenly Court, he would be captured immediately after going out, and there would be no way to escape by then.

He sneered twice and said, “If you want to help, go help. I just fought a few battles and my vitality is severely depleted. I'm very weak now and need to rest for several months.”

“……”

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan and Immortal Maiden Bi Yao rolled their eyes. Jiang Han's excuse was too perfunctory, right? He was as strong as an ox. He calls that weak?

Lu Xingyu thought for a moment and said, “Jiang Han needs to rest. It wouldn't be of much use for us to go down. Besides, Wei Wushen is over there. The Little Imperial Grandson and the others have many strong people. They should be able to hold on.”

“If they can't hold on, they should send someone to ask us for help. It won't be too late to go and assist them then.”

“That's right!”

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan nodded and said, “My injuries aren't light either. I need to recuperate. I'll arrange for a few cultivators to investigate the situation later. If they can't hold on, we'll discuss it again.”

Immortal Maiden Bi Yao looked at Lu Xingyu and smiled sweetly, “I'll listen to Brother Lu.”

“That's settled!”

Jiang Han waved his hand. He thought for a moment and looked at Lu Xingyu, saying, “Young Master Lu, could you help me build a Star Gathering Array? I need to absorb the power of the stars to restore my vitality.”

“Absorb the power of the stars?”

A look of surprise appeared in Lu Xingyu's eyes. He came from a wealthy family and had seen a lot, but he had never heard of absorbing the power of the stars to restore vitality.

However, he didn't ask too much. Everyone has their own secrets. He smiled and said, “That's simple, I'll help you set it up.”

Jiang Han stood up and cupped his hands, “Please also help me set up an immortal array to isolate perception. You can calculate the immortal stones for the array stones and I'll give them to you.”

Lu Xingyu's eyes widened and he said, “Jiang Han, are you looking down on Lu Xingyu? Or do you not consider me a friend?”

Jiang Han smiled and said, “Then I won't call you Young Master Lu in the future.”

“Mm!”

Lu Xingyu smiled. Jiang Han not calling him Young Master Lu meant that he wanted to make him a friend. He got up and walked to the corner, quickly starting to help Jiang Han set up the array.

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan stood up and said to Jiang Han, “Divine Marquis, let me formally introduce myself. My name is Jiang Jiu Xuan, you can call me Jiu Xuan!”

Yu Xi looked at Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan with a smile that was not a smile. Many cultivators showed envious expressions. Was Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan interested in Jiang Han? She was actually taking the initiative to befriend him.

Jiang Han nodded and said, “Just call me Jiang Han in the future!”

Immortal Maiden Bi Yao smiled sweetly and said, “Can I call you Brother Jiang Han?”

“You can!”

Jiang Han nodded slightly. During this period of fighting side by side, he had a good impression of Lu Xingyu, Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan, and Immortal Maiden Bi Yao. These three were friends worth making.

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan thought for a moment, her lips moved slightly, and she suddenly transmitted her voice, “Jiang Han, after leaving the secret realm, I suggest you immediately leave the Prisoner Camp. You… don't go back to the Heavenly Court, find a way to go to the Ancient God Star Region!”

“Uh…”

A cold light flashed in Jiang Han's eyes, instinctively becoming vigilant, like a frightened beast.

Jiu Xuan actually saw through his identity?

How did she know?

His eyes turned and he quickly calmed down. Since Jiu Xuan had transmitted her voice to him, she definitely wouldn't expose him. He thought for a moment and transmitted his voice, “Jiu Xuan, how did you know?”

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan smiled faintly, her beautiful smile dazzling many young men.

She transmitted her voice, “Sister Yinghuo wouldn't easily take action for a man. There are only a few strong people named Jiang. Besides… Immortal Venerable Wu Yun's adoptive father is currently in the Ancient God Star Region.”

“You weren't well-known before, and not many people paid attention. After this, you will definitely be thoroughly investigated, and it will be easy to be discovered.”

Jiang Han felt relieved. He was a little curious and transmitted his voice, “Isn't your Jiang family a staunch supporter of the Jade Emperor?”

“No!”

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan transmitted her voice, “My grandmother only stands on the side of the Human Race. She and the Jade Emperor and the Azure Emperor are friends, and she is also friends with your father. Besides… the Jiang family is the Jiang family, I am me!”

“Understood!”

Jiang Han nodded and transmitted his voice, “Besides you, do the others know my identity?”

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan transmitted her voice, “Bi Yao knows. I estimate that Lu Xingyu may have some suspicions, but the others probably don't know. Don't worry, Bi Yao won't talk nonsense. Even if Lu Xingyu knows, he won't say anything. The Lu family is absolutely neutral.”

“Good!”

Jiang Han's eyes turned and he asked again, “Jiu Xuan, do you know how to get to the Ancient God Star Region from the God Demon Battlefield? Yu Xi and Brother Wu may not be very clear.”

“I know!”

Immortal Maiden Jiu Xuan's space ring lit up, and she took out a jade slip and threw it to Jiang Han, transmitting her voice, “This contains a detailed map of the entire Great World. After you refine it, you can sense it by activating it.”

“There are detailed markings on it, including how to get to the Ancient God Star Region. Four entrances and exits in the God Demon Battlefield can all get you there.”

“However, the Ancient God Star Region is extremely dangerous. You'd better find a way to notify the Eastern Celestial Emperor, otherwise you won't be able to enter.”
