Creation of the Universe

If what Shen Jingjuan said is true, then this matter is even more bizarre.

After all, turning the sword energy from invisible to visible is not something Shen Zhan can do with his current level of cultivation.

Could it be that Shen Jingjuan saw it wrong?

Xie Qi was extremely confused at this time. After all, his fourth brother Kong Shang was stronger than him. How could he die so tragically at the hands of this kid in front of him?

"My princess is frightened. I will kill Shen Zhan right now and then send you back to Jinning."

It's useless to think more. In the end, he still has to test Shen Zhan's strength. After making up his mind, Xie Qi held the Dragon Prison Stick in his hand and slowly walked forward.

Shen Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze filled with cold murderous intent.

"Since I can kill Kong Shang, I can naturally kill you too. Come and try."

At this point, he could only scare the other party, but he couldn't let them find out that he couldn't kill Kong Shang at all. It was entirely due to the sword light shot out from the map of mountains, rivers and stars.

Shen Zhan was being chased all the way and didn't have time to study the picture carefully.

He only knew that the picture was a spatial spiritual weapon, and it must contain something he didn't know about. The existence of the sword light proved this possibility.

Facing the aggressive Xie Qi, Shen Zhan is certainly able to fight, but he does not want to fight with him head-on. Even if he wins, he will be seriously injured, and then Shen Jingjuan will definitely have the opportunity to take action.

Shen Zhan glanced at the direction of the river, then raised the corner of his lips and shouted, "If you want to see my skills, then try it!"

Shen Zhan, who didn't want to fight any longer, raised his hand and released a large group of blue flame blood-winged insects. These little insects were extremely greedy for spiritual power and immediately rushed towards Xie Qi, who was full of spiritual power.

Xie Qi, who was about to attack Shen Zhan with the Dragon Prison Stick, was stunned when he saw the Blue Flame Blood Winged Insect. He knew very well how powerful this little insect was and did not dare to neglect it at all.

What surprised him was that Shen Zhan actually had such a large number of blue flame blood-winged insects on his body, which was really rare.

Seeing the blue flame blood-winged insects quickly surrounding him, Xie Qi held the Dragon Prison Stick across his body and used his spiritual power to drive it to spin rapidly, thus forming an unbreakable barrier.

While Xie Qi was busy dealing with the blue-flame blood-winged insects, Shen Zhan grabbed Shen Jingjuan and rushed to the bridge downstream. At this time, the big ship he saw was about to pass under the bridge, and they could not miss this opportunity.

Shen Jingjuan looked back at the blue-flame blood-winged insects besieging Xie Qi, and broke out in a cold sweat. The speed at which so many insects were absorbing spiritual energy was astonishing. She wondered if Xie Qi could hold on!

If Xie Qi couldn't save her, then there would be no one else to rely on for help in the short term.

Shen Zhan didn't care what Shen Jingjuan was thinking. He dragged the latter to the bridge and jumped down when the opportunity arose. With their cultivation level, they could naturally land steadily on the deck of the ship.

But Shen Zhan first pushed Shen Jingjuan in mid-air, and then when he landed, he deliberately pretended to be very embarrassed, which made them look like ordinary young boys and girls instead of people with cultivation.

After hearing the noise, two people rushed over from one side of the deck to check the situation.

Shen Zhan noticed that one of the middle-aged men was holding a sword, with a sharp gaze and an extraordinary bearing. He was obviously a master with great cultivation.

The other old man was hunched over and had white hair. Standing next to the middle-aged man, it was not difficult to see that the two were probably in a master-servant relationship.

"What's wrong with you two? Why did you jump onto our boat for no reason?"

The old man questioned in a serious tone.

Shen Zhan stood up unsteadily and replied, "Help!"

"My brother and I were caught by a robber on the road. He was chasing us relentlessly and we were nearly killed and robbed. Luckily, when we passed the bridge just now, we saw this big ship and had no choice but to jump off to save our lives."

"Please forgive me!"

Shen Jingjuan gave Shen Zhan a displeased look, and when she was about to tell the truth, she was forced back by Shen Zhan's frightening gaze.

"My brother...what he said is true. Please save us."

Shen Jingjuan was extremely unhappy. Although she and Shen Zhan were only two years apart in age, she was the older sister after all. How could Shen Zhan take advantage of her now?

The middle-aged man holding the sword looked at Shen Zhan and Shen Jingjuan one by one, and then said in a deep voice: "Who are you two and where do you live?"

Shen Zhan replied, "We are villagers from nearby. My name is Shen Zhan, and he is my sister Shen Jingjuan. We left home just for fun, but we didn't expect to run into these vicious robbers."

"How powerful is this robber that you two can't handle him even if you join forces?"

The middle-aged man's tone suddenly became sharp, because he had already seen that Shen Zhan and Shen Jingjuan were both people with cultivation. Would it be a problem for them to deal with a few ordinary robbers?

Shen Zhan didn't expect that this man had such a sharp eye and could see through their flaws in a short while.

"Canglang!"

The man drew his sword and pointed it at Shen Zhan, questioning him, "You seem to be lying. Are you going to tell the truth next, or do you want me to force you to tell the truth?"

Shen Zhan was definitely not in a position to fight with others, so he sighed and said, "My two brothers were exhausted from running for our lives and we really didn't dare to tell the truth to strangers. Now that we can no longer hide it, we can only tell the truth.

Actually, my sister and I escaped here from Jinning. Originally, we were both servants in the Jinning Palace, but my sister offended the prince of the palace, and the prince was a cruel person.

To protect my sister from physical pain, I took her and fled the palace, hoping to regain my freedom. However, the prince sent people to hunt us down along the way, forcing us into a dead end.

Hearing this outrageous lie, Shen Jingjuan cursed inwardly, "You're like Shen Zhan. You usually look so serious, but I never thought you'd be so cunning!"

She secretly hoped that the man in front of her would see through Shen Zhan's true face, and it would be best if the two of them had a big fight, so that she would have a chance.

"Then tell me, how many children does the King of Jinning have? What is the name of the Crown Prince?"

The man wanted to verify whether Shen Zhan's words were false, but he would not have thought that such a question would be exactly what Shen Zhan wanted.

"Prince Jinning has nineteen children, and the Crown Prince is his third son, named Shen Jingming."

"Hmm...So what did you do in the palace?"

Shen Zhan answered without hesitation: "He is the prince's study companion."

"Which prince?"

"Shen Zhan, the eighth son of King Jinning."

The man pondered for a moment, then asked Shen Zhan, "Since you are a study companion, why do you have such a high level of cultivation?"

Shen Zhan was about to answer when a voice came from the cabin, "Let them come in and answer."
