"What is that? An angel?"
"No way, there are angels in this game?"
"This is a world of demons and monsters. Where would angels come from? It's definitely caused by some powerful monster."
Many players were drawn to the post, and the comments section was filled with various speculations. Most people believed it was a monster, while some thought it was an angel, and others even thought it might be caused by some kind of treasure. Opinions were divided.
Seeing the ethereal figure, Su Nan's expression changed.
While others might not recognize what the figure was, he knew very well.
"Celestial Tribe!"
"And it's a Six-Winged Celestial!"
In an instant, he remembered what Yang Zheng had told him about the Destiny Society before. In order to make him take action against the Demon King that had descended into reality, Yang Zheng had informed him that the Celestial Tribe had left some hidden means in the world of demons and monsters, and the members of the Destiny Society could find those means.
"It looks like this is something the Destiny Society has created!" Su Nan furrowed his brows.
In the real world, the Destiny Society's strength was suppressed and couldn't be fully utilized, posing no real threat to him. However, in the game, the Destiny Society could now use the power of the Celestial Tribe, which changed the game entirely.
"Unfortunately, I'm in the Lost Lands right now. Otherwise, I could go and take a look."
He wasn't afraid. Perhaps others couldn't resist the power of the Celestial Tribe, but after practicing the Wheel of Destiny Scripture, if the Destiny Society wanted to target him through fate, it would be a futile endeavor.
Yongzhou Prefecture.
On a mountain range, several people in black robes looked at a massive stone coffin in front of them with excitement.
"We've finally found it! As long as we get what's inside, it will be a piece of cake to kill that Wang Nan."
The leader, a middle-aged man, asked, "Have you found that Wang Nan?"
Another person in black robes shook their head, saying, "No, that guy has been very mysterious in the game. No one has seen him since the human crisis mission ended."
"It's fortunate that his strength hasn't improved since he reached the Profound Level."
"It seems that Profound Level is the limit for these players. That's good news for us."
"We need to hurry up and open this coffin and find Wang Nan to deal with him."
...
Back into the game again.
His consciousness descended into his avatar.
When he logged out of the game earlier, Su Nan had his avatar transform into a bird and hide in the treetops, easily avoiding the pursuit of the players.
At this point, as he had foreseen, there were over a hundred players chasing after his avatar, with the majority of them coming from the Thirty-Two Families.
"I wonder what kind of quests will refresh this time."
He looked forward to it.
To ensure that all three of his characters could get quests related to the Thirty-Two Families, he deliberately switched control between the three avatars to continue fleeing from the pursuers.
If all three characters could refresh quests similar to "Defend against the Li Family's retaliation," even if they were just one-star quests, it would be a substantial gain.
Reverting his avatar to its original appearance again, he deliberately let the pursuing team discover him and continued to run toward the next town.
In Daxu Royal City.
Chen Ying was worried as she asked, "Master, the Daxu Kingdom's lord sent an invitation just now. He wants you to attend the banquet at the royal palace tonight."
"What should we do, Master? You just killed the Daxu Kingdom's guards, and now the Daxu Kingdom's lord is inviting you. It's definitely not for a friendly chat."
"Has he already arrived?" Su Nan nodded calmly, showing no change in his expression.
"Master, do you seem to know that the Daxu Kingdom's lord would invite you?" Seeing his calm demeanor, Chen Ying's anxious heart finally eased a bit.
Having witnessed Su Nan's various extraordinary abilities, she had come to trust him completely. As long as Su Nan wasn't in a hurry, she wouldn't be either.
Su Nan said, "I not only know that the Daxu Kingdom's lord will invite me, but I also know that if I don't go, he will personally come after me soon."
"Ah! What should we do then?" Chen Ying exclaimed, and her anxiety returned.
"Don't worry; I have a way to handle it."
Saying this, Su Nan took out the Landscape Gourd and released the Grand Princess.
"Your Highness, we may face a fierce battle later. I'll need your assistance."
"Oh? Is there an opponent in this world that you can't handle?" The Grand Princess was surprised.
Su Nan said, "This time, our opponent is the Daxu Kingdom's lord."
"I see!"
The Grand Princess nodded. Su Nan had previously mentioned the Daxu Kingdom's lord, so she had some understanding of him and knew that he might have some means left behind by the Daxu Dynasty.
"In that case, we'll need to confront him together. Just give me a breath's worth of time when the time comes."
"One breath?" The Grand Princess didn't doubt Su Nan's abilities and nodded, saying, "Alright."
Listening to their conversation and looking at the Grand Princess, Chen Ying was dumbfounded.
The person by her Young Master's side was actually a king-level expert?
Then what level was her Young Master?
Time passed.
It was now past 7:50 in the evening, and the Twelve Constellations were about to open again!
In the world chat, players from the Twelve Provinces were in a heated discussion.
"Your Wang Nan and his team from the Hua Province are strong, but our Broda the Great from the Polu Province is no slouch either."
"Yesterday, Wang Nan's team was only a few seconds faster than our Broda the Great in hunting the Constellation Guardians. Today, if we can stop them, we can easily buy some time for Broda the Great!"
After being overshadowed by players from the Hua Province twice in a row, the players from the Polu Province were getting agitated and had spontaneously organized themselves to intercept Wang Nan's team, regardless of the consequences, to buy time for their own Great Broda.
"Polu Province players, keep it up! We believe in you! As long as you fight hard, the first place will belong to our Great Broda!"
"Only you guys think you can stop Wang Nan and his team? It's laughable."
The players from the Hua Province paid no attention and watched the Polu Province players in the world chat as if they were watching clowns.
Time quickly passed, and it was now 8:00 PM.
Just like yesterday, Su Nan's main body and his avatars entered the Twelve Constellations simultaneously.
However, unlike yesterday, the number of players on both sides had decreased to only ten thousand each!
The difference was that this time, there were three Constellation Guardians on each side. In addition to the true Constellation Guardian, there was also a female player by Su Nan's side.
"With only ten thousand players, how many points will we get this time?"
Su Nan immediately checked his
panel.
To his relief, even though the number of players had decreased, the number of points had not. It was still twenty thousand.
"That's enough. After this round, I'll be able to open the fourth-tier shop. I wonder what good items will be inside."
He looked forward to it.
Chapter 283
In the previous Contribution Market, there were a plethora of magical techniques and skills available. This time, there are a total of five levels in the market, so it's safe to assume that these items should be quite exceptional.
"Gao Ting! The formidable Gao Ting, ranked 82nd on the realm leaderboard, has been assigned to our battlefield."
"Who is that... Zhang Yang! Zhang Yang, the great expert, has also been assigned to our side. That's fantastic; winning this time is impossible!"
Players from the Hua Province in the game noticed Su Nan and the woman, and they were all excited.
However, they quickly realized something and frowned, "Oh no, whether we can score points this time is a question."
They remembered the points earned by players in the same battlefield as Zhang Yang in the previous battle, and they couldn't help but curse their luck.
"Zhang Yang! He's the one from the Hua Province!"
"Stop him! We absolutely cannot let him kill the Star Palace Guardians first!"
On the other side, players from the Polu Province were also becoming restless upon seeing Zhang Yang.
A similar situation was happening in the battlefield where Wang Nan was located.
The battle began.
Players from the Polu Province all attacked Su Nan, hoping to delay Su Nan's hunt for the Star Palace Guardians.
Unfortunately, their attempts were futile in Su Nan's eyes.
The same thing as yesterday happened again.
Almost as soon as the battle began, the Star Palace Guardian in Su Nan's battlefield was hunted down.
"They've taken the lead again!"
"Useless! Those players from the Polu Province are truly useless; they can't even delay for a few seconds."
Watching the announcements in the world chat, players from the other eleven provinces, except for the Dongchen Province, were furious and cursed, making the players from the Polu Province feel both angry and resentful.
Having experienced this twice already, Su Nan was well-practiced.
After a little over ten minutes, all the battlefields where his three characters were located had been cleared.
"Grand Princess should be here soon."
Exiting the battlefield, he continued controlling his avatar to flee, while his main body quietly awaited the arrival of the Grand Princess.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Just as the Twelve Constellations event was about to end for the day, Su Nan and the Grand Princess simultaneously noticed something and looked outside the inn.
They saw a middle-aged man in his forties walking slowly into the inn.
The middle-aged man was dressed in ordinary blue clothing and had an average appearance. His slow approach didn't draw the attention of others, as if in their eyes, the middle-aged man didn't exist.
Illusion!
This middle-aged man possessed an illusion ability that could deceive the people around him.
However, this kind of illusion had no effect on Su Nan and the Grand Princess.
Seeing Su Nan and the Grand Princess looking at him, the middle-aged man frowned in surprise, especially when he saw the Grand Princess, his frown deepened.
He couldn't determine the Grand Princess's realm, but for some reason, he felt a sense of danger when facing her.
"Where did this woman come from?" The middle-aged man wondered.
Su Nan didn't speak, but the Grand Princess spoke first, "Are you the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom?"
Having his identity revealed, the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom showed a slight change in expression, but quickly regained his composure and said in a deep voice, "Since you recognize this Lord, why aren't you kneeling down?"
"Kneel down? It depends on whether you have the ability!" Su Nan didn't waste any time and attacked directly.
"Bold! Daring to attack this Lord, you will be the first to die, Chen Daohai!"
The Lord of the Daxu Kingdom's face darkened, and he seemed to make no move, but the invisible sword formed by his soul power struck towards Su Nan.
As a pinnacle Profound Level expert, his soul power attack was enough to seriously injure anyone in the initial Profound Level.
In his view, under his attack, Su Nan would either die or suffer serious injuries.
However, the next moment, something that shocked him happened.
A soul power spear, formed by the Grand Princess's soul power, shot out as well. It collided with his soul power sword, shattering the sword made of his soul power.
"Soul power!"
The Lord of the Daxu Kingdom's eyebrows furrowed. Chen Daohai was a physique-based martial artist and shouldn't have soul power.
In an instant, the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom realized the problem.
"You're not Chen Daohai! Who are you?"
As the two sides clashed, their formidable soul power collided, emitting a terrifying aura.
In the city, the experts of the Five Great Families were the first to notice something unusual and rushed towards the inn where Su Nan was located.
In this situation, the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom's illusion lost its effect naturally.
As the illusion dissipated, everyone finally saw the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom.
"That's... the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom!"
"Why is the Lord of Daxu Kingdom here?"
People were surprised, and then they saw the transformed Chen Daohai, which added to their astonishment.
"Chen Daohai! The Lord of the Daxu Kingdom is coming towards Chen Daohai!"
"I knew it; Chen Daohai dared to attack the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom's guards, so the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom won't let him off."
"Chen Daohai actually dared to attack the Lord of the Daxu Kingdom; isn't he asking for death?"
Seeing the two sides in combat, people immediately distanced themselves, fearing they would be caught up in the unnecessary conflict.
"Our young master will be fine!" Chen Ying prayed silently in the crowd.
The Lord of the Daxu Kingdom was both shocked and furious. Looking at Su Nan and the ensuing battle, he finally understood that these two individuals had come prepared for him.
