The Grand Princess of the Martial Extreme Nation?
She is really a big shot. No wonder she has such a noble temperament.
"What's the situation in the imperial capital?
Is there a way to enter the imperial palace? "
Su Chen asked.
Xia Susu revealed a difficult expression and sighed, "It might be a little troublesome. The imperial guards in the imperial palace have all submitted to Xia Bei. The entire imperial palace is under Xia Bei's control. There are three Reincarnation Realm experts inside. It is too difficult to sneak in. Also, Sister Ziyan is under house arrest and can't bring us into the imperial palace."
Xia Ziyan's red lips parted and said, "Young Master Wu, Ziyan is extremely grateful that you can bring Susu safely to the imperial capital. Leave the rest to Ziyan. You can rest here and recuperate."
Xia Ziyan looked at Su Chen with appreciation and admiration. She had already told Xia Susu about Su Chen. He was able to kill a five-star assassin from the Golden Sword Sect with the strength of Reincarnation Realm and even fought to a draw with another five-star assassin. There was probably no one else with such strength in the entire Martial Extreme Sect.
Su Chen was stunned.
Xia Ziyan's intentions were good, but she didn't know that Su Chen's goal was also to enter the imperial palace.
However, he couldn't do anything in his current state. It was better for him to rest for a period of time.
"Oh right, where is Hu Youyou?" Su Chen asked.
Xia Susu said, "She is resting in the underground secret room. After all, she is from the Monster Race and has to be extra careful in the imperial capital. She can't reveal a trace of her Monster Race aura."
"It's fine as long as she is fine."
Xia Ziyan said, "Susu, stay here and take care of Young Master Wu. I will go to the elders' residences to see if there is a way to enter the imperial palace. However, don't have too much hope. The imperial court is in chaos now. Those old foxes only know how to protect themselves. It is too difficult to get their help."
"Sister Ziyan, you must be careful."
"Don't worry, I have the Void Mirror to protect me. No one can hurt me." Xia Ziyan turned and left.
"What is the Great Void Mirror?" Su Chen asked. From the name, could it be related to the Great Void Star?
Xia Susu said, "The Great Void Mirror is one of the three Divine Weapons controlled by the royal family. Legend has it that it came from the distant Great Void Star. It has the miraculous effect of turning danger into safety. It is a top defensive magic weapon."
"Godfather, don't underestimate Sister Ziyan. Her strength is very strong. She has already passed the Unmovable Tribulation a hundred years ago. Now she is an expert of No Doubts Tribulation and has a divine weapon to protect her body. Even if she encounters an expert of No Life Tribulation, she has the power to fight."
How could he be so powerful?
Su Chen didn't even notice it just now. This aura was hidden too well.
Shaking his head, Su Chen lay down again, intending to make the best use of the time to recover his strength.
Seeing this, Xia Susu didn't disturb Su Chen, but she didn't leave either. She just sat on the edge of the bed, holding her chin and sizing up Su Chen. Her eyes were almost reflecting little stars.
When he woke up, it was already night.
As soon as Su Chen opened his eyes, Xia Susu eagerly brought hot tea: "Godfather, drink tea."
"Godfather, are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."
"Godfather, do you want to take a bath? I'll prepare hot water for you."
"Godfather, where are you uncomfortable? I'll help you rub it."
What kind of pestering little goblin was this!
They were both descendants of the royal family. Couldn't she learn from Xia Ziyan? Look at her noble aura. In comparison, Xia Susu felt like a little girl who was still wet behind the ears.
"Take a bath first."
However, Su Chen still accepted Xia Susu's service as a matter of course.
It was indeed inconvenient for him to move now. It would be much better if someone took care of him.
"Okay, godfather."
After a while, Su Chen walked into the bath with the help of Xia Susu.
When Su Chen was about to take off his clothes, he found that Xia Susu was still staring at him without blinking.
"Is it nice?"
"Cough cough …" "Godfather, take your time to wash up. Call me if you need anything." Xia Susu walked out with a red face.
After running a bath and washing away the bloodstains on his body, Su Chen felt much more refreshed. He then changed into a set of well-made black brocade clothes. The moment he walked out of the bathroom, Xia Susu stared straight at him.
Su Chen was helpless. Why did he feel that Xia Susu was a little … Lecherous?
There are indeed lecherous women in this world, but you're still a princess of a country. Isn't it good not to be so explicit?
I treat you as my goddaughter, and you actually want to go up to me?
"Godfather, dinner is ready. What kind of food do you like? Sweet, spicy, sour, and salty, there are all here."
"Beast meat is fine. The more, the better."
Su Chen had consumed a lot of energy in this battle, so he needed to eat more top-grade beast meat to replenish his energy.
"Alright!"
Xia Susu quickly brought a large basin of roasted beast meat and said, "This is the beast meat specially provided by our Wuji Country's royal family. It's the best meat from the top-grade Shedding Body Realm beasts hunted from outside. It's rich in essence qi."
With the Wuji Country's hostility towards the Demon Race, it wasn't surprising that they would use beast meat as food.
Su Chen couldn't care less at this moment and immediately ate heartily.
After eating hundreds of kilograms of roasted meat, Su Chen finally felt that his body had recovered some strength.
Xia Susu suddenly sat over and took a handkerchief to gently wipe the oil from the corner of Su Chen's mouth.
"Godfather, this is for you."
As she spoke, Xia Susu took out a storage ring.
"This is?"
"After I killed that female assassin, I took it from her."
Haitang?
Su Chen suddenly remembered that he still didn't know the final result of the battle.
After asking carefully, Su Chen found out that Xia Susu took advantage of the moment when Haitang fainted to finish her off, resulting in Haitang's life.
Su Chen couldn't help but take another look at Xia Susu.
This young lady was very perceptive. She was very straightforward in finishing off the enemy. She was a moldable talent.
Moreover, Su Chen previously discovered that Xia Susu's cultivation talent was very good. She just lacked combat experience and combat awareness. However, this aspect could be nurtured later on.
If Su Chen was allowed to carve this beautiful jade, she might have a bright future.
However, now wasn't the time to care about these things. Su Chen picked up the storage ring and used the divine pattern power to erase the array formation on it.
After using his divine sense to check, Su Chen nodded with satisfaction.
The wealth of a Sea of Reincarnation Realm expert was indeed very abundant.
Just the essence nuclei alone were more than a million. If converted to origin coins, it would be more than 10 billion. This was already a huge sum, and it didn't include the other treasures, elixirs, and natural treasures.
Su Chen took out a pile of treasured dao artifact flying swords from the storage ring. Then, he summoned the sword spirit, Xiao Gu. "You were badly injured in the previous battle. I'll let you devour these flying swords. They should help you recover some strength."
Previously, Su Chen asked Xiao Gu to block Haitang and protect the floating ship. She had risked her life. Out of the 64 Golden Swords, seven were broken, and 12 were destroyed. Although they could be repaired, when the flying swords were destroyed, the injuries would be directly transmitted to the sword spirit.
Looking at Xiao Gu's dispirited appearance, Jiang Yi knew that her injuries were definitely not light.
"Many thanks, Master."
Xiao Gu said gratefully. She hugged the pile of flying swords and immediately started to devour them.
Su Chen also took the opportunity to refine and repair those damaged Golden Swords.
