After Luo Tian’s breakthrough to the Half-step Spirit Sea realm, only one day remained before the Royal Secret Garden closed.

Nangong Yu, Li Yunxiu, and Senior Jin had been cultivating in the Cultivation Rooms, and all three were making rapid progress.

Luo Tian didn’t disturb them.

He walked out of the Profound Spirit Hall and made his way to Profound Spirit Mountain.

Halfway up the mountain, before the Divine Communication Ancient Wall, lay the shocking and gruesome corpses of several Azure Cloud Kingdom geniuses.

Luo Tian sighed.

Of the fifty people who had initially entered the Royal Secret Garden, only a handful had survived.

He still had a bit of the Five-Colored Spiritual Light on him. He randomly picked a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure and used up the light completely.

Huh!

Strangely, Luo Tian was not expelled from Profound Spirit Mountain.

The Five-Colored Jade Pendant that had merged with his body was still there, which was very peculiar.

Of course, without the Five-Colored Streaming Light, Luo Tian couldn’t obtain anything more on the mountain.

Just as he walked off Profound Spirit Mountain.

”CAW CAW! Boy! You’re finally out! What gift do you have for this god?”

A smoldering crow flew down from the sky.

It turned out that after Profound Spirit Mountain appeared, Luo Tian had told the Crow to stay nearby and not wander too far.

After not seeing it for a few days, the Crow’s aura was a bit stronger, and its belly was bulging.

”You still want a gift? Aren’t you afraid of bursting?”

Luo Tian found it amusing. ’With this bird’s knack for swindling and cheating, it must have made quite a haul.’

The man and the bird headed toward the core of the Secret Garden.

Suddenly!

Luo Tian’s Spiritual Sense tingled; he felt as if he was being watched.

”CAW CAW! There’s a tagalong behind us.”

The Crow cackled strangely.

Flying in the air, it had a much wider field of view.

SWOOSH!

Luo Tian executed the Cloud Traveling Step, and like a wisp of smoke, he blended into the ruined garden walls ahead.

A moment later, a pale-faced young woman in a green dress appeared from behind, staring with a look of unwillingness at the spot where Luo Tian had vanished.

”Who are you!”

A voice suddenly came from behind her.

”Ah—”

The green-skirted young woman screamed, her beautiful face draining of all color.

She turned her head to look.

A handsome youth in a dark cloak stood with his arms crossed, watching her coldly.

”Luo Tian, please don’t misunderstand!”

”I’m from an external branch of the Royal Family and a student at the Cloud Heaven Holy Mansion. I saw you before at the Wu Mansion Grand Tournament.”

The green-skirted young woman hurriedly explained.

”Why are you following me?”

Luo Tian narrowed his eyes and questioned her.

’This girl looks like she just broke through to the Half-step Spirit Sea realm. She can’t be a powerful enemy from Qiu Yue Kingdom.’

”Please, I beg you, save the Third Prince! He and the others have been captured by a powerful enemy from Qiu Yue Kingdom and are being held somewhere.”

The green-skirted young woman sobbed.

After a round of questioning, Luo Tian understood the reason.

This green-skirted young woman was from an external branch of the Royal Family and had entered the Royal Secret Garden through the resources her family had paid.

The young woman had been lucky. After witnessing the slaughter by the people from Qiu Yue Kingdom, she had found a hidden place to hide.

Coincidentally, the forces of Qiu Yue Kingdom imprisoned the captured Seventh Prince and Third Prince near her hiding spot.

The green-skirted young woman could have played it safe and ignored the matter.

But the Third Prince, Li Yi, was the man she admired. She couldn’t bear to leave him, so she risked coming to find help.

”Rescue them?”

A sneer appeared on Luo Tian’s face. ”I have no intention of walking into a tiger’s den and risking my own life for a few people who have nothing to do with me.”

The Seventh Prince had a grudge against Luo Tian, and the Third Prince was cunning and inscrutable; he didn’t have a good impression of him either.

From a personal standpoint, Luo Tian couldn’t be bothered to save them.

”I beg you! I am willing to pay any price, including offering you my body... as long as you’re willing to help.”

The green-skirted young woman’s bright eyes reddened as she knelt on the ground.

Luo Tian’s eyes widened. ’This woman is way too infatuated with the Third Prince.’

”There’s only one person from Qiu Yue Kingdom guarding the hostages. If you make a move, you’ll have a high chance of success.”

Thinking Luo Tian was tempted, the green-skirted woman bit her pearly-white teeth, undid her dress, and revealed her snow-white, youthful body.

”Wait! Did you say there’s only one guard?”

Luo Tian stopped her.

This woman’s looks could only be considered pretty. She couldn’t compare to Ning Xueyao or Xia Bingyue, and she was far less beautiful than even Lin Qinghan.

What surprised him was that Qiu Yue Kingdom had only assigned one person to guard the hostages.

If that was the case, Luo Tian didn’t mind lending a hand to rescue them.

Once the two Princes were captured alive, Qiu Yue Kingdom would gain a significant advantage on the battlefield.

This matter could even affect the very survival of the kingdom.

When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken.

Luo Tian didn’t want his homeland to fall, nor for his friends and the common people to descend into misery.

”It’s absolutely true, there’s only one person! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have risked coming out.”

The green-skirted young woman’s words were sincere and earnest.

”Alright, lead the way.”

Luo Tian nodded.

”Thank you!”

The green-skirted young woman’s face was filled with joy and gratitude as she led the way.

The Crow flew in the sky, surveying the surroundings.

The place where Qiu Yue Kingdom was holding the hostages wasn’t far.

An hour later, the two humans and one bird arrived at an abandoned manor.

”The Third Prince and the others are being held inside,” the green-skirted young woman said nervously.

”Let’s go in.”

Luo Tian walked into the manor openly and without any attempt at stealth.

The Crow had scouted from a low altitude, and the general situation was about what the green-skirted young woman had described.

The two had just approached a main pavilion in the manor.

”Who goes there!”

A shout like a clap of thunder rang out, accompanied by a powerful, oppressive aura.

That presence was twenty or thirty percent stronger than that of Wang Tian, who was ranked second on the Human List.

BANG! CRACK!

Luo Tian sent a palm strike through the air, blasting open the wooden outer wall of the pavilion.

Amidst the flying splinters of wood, a man in purple robes with a long spear on his back appeared before them.

Inside the now-open pavilion, several bound men and women were revealed.

Besides the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince, Liu Ziyan and Wang Tian were also among them.

Liu Ziyan’s hair was disheveled and her clothes were torn, revealing large patches of bruised and stained fair skin. It looked as though she had been subjected to some kind of abuse and humiliation.

”Luo Tian, be careful! This is Deng Yunjie, second on the Qiu Yue Kingdom’s Human List!” the Third Prince, Li Yi, exclaimed as a warning.

”Second on Qiu Yue Kingdom’s Human List?”

The green-skirted young woman looked as if she’d been struck by lightning. Her face turned pale with terror.

Before, she had confirmed that Qiu Yue Kingdom had only sent one person to guard the hostages, but she never imagined it would be such a terrifying figure.

After the geniuses of Qiu Yue Kingdom entered the Secret Garden, they had ruthlessly crushed and slaughtered those from Azure Cloud Kingdom.

It was impossible to imagine how terrifying the person ranked second on their Human List could be.

”Haha! So you’re that Luo Tian. Hand over the Dragon Scale Grass obediently, and I’ll give you a quick death.”

The purple-robed man laughed heartily.

He had no idea about Luo Tian’s clash with Dongmen Lin and Zheng Wei on Profound Spirit Mountain.

His impression of Luo Tian was still stuck in the first two days after they had entered the Secret Garden.

ZING! WHOOSH!

The purple-robed man shook the long spear in his hand. It became wreathed in a layer of purplish-red light as he flung out a whistling, explosive spear shadow.

This casual strike was no weaker than an attack from the top three on Azure Cloud Kingdom’s Human List.

”Luo Tian, I’ve doomed you.”

The green-skirted young woman’s face was ashen. Her delicate body trembled as she sank into endless despair.

However, the youth in front of her remained perfectly calm, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

”Merely second on the Human List? You dare to be so arrogant.”

Luo Tian snorted coldly. He raised a single palm, condensing a massive, heavy, crystalline yellow Palm Shadow to clash head-on with the purple-robed man’s spear.

CLANG!

A sound like metal striking metal rang out, and a powerful shockwave of air and dust blasted in all directions.

”No! How could—”

The purple-robed man grunted and retreated abruptly.

The long spear was nearly knocked from his grasp, and the skin between his thumb and forefinger split open, oozing blood.

Luo Tian’s Palm Force was mighty and domineering. Its terrifying strength had not only clashed directly with a Treasure Artifact but had also injured him with the impact.

”Luo Tian’s strength...”

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

The Third Prince and the Seventh Prince wore expressions of shocked delight.

”This...”

The green-skirted young woman, who had been lost in despair, had her mouth wide open, as if petrified.

She had thought Luo Tian would be doomed beyond redemption.

Who would have thought that in a single exchange, Luo Tian would injure and repel the second-ranked expert from Qiu Yue Kingdom’s Human List.

”This kid actually has strength close to number one on the Human List! What are you waiting for? Attack together!” the purple-robed man roared.

As soon as the words fell.

SNAP! SNAP!

The ropes binding Wang Tian and Liu Ziyan suddenly snapped.

”Luo Tian, die!”

A layer of faint black, distorted ripples surged from Wang Tian’s body as he charged at Luo Tian.

With a venomous look on her face, Liu Ziyan unleashed her Martial Vein Power and circled around to attack Luo Tian from the side.

In an instant, Luo Tian was facing a pincer attack from the second-ranked experts of two kingdoms, plus Liu Ziyan, whose combat strength was close to the top ten of the Human List.

”Be careful!”

The green-skirted young woman’s heart leaped into her throat.

Who could have predicted that Liu Ziyan and Wang Tian would betray Azure Cloud Kingdom and side with the enemy nation.

This seemingly loosely guarded location was actually a trap.

”Junior! With two experts ranked second on the Human List joining forces, even number one would die here today!” the purple-robed man sneered viciously.

The spear in his hand thrust out again, erupting with thirty percent more power than before.

At the same time, the faint black, distorted ripples from Wang Tian’s body also swept toward Luo Tian.

Hmm?

Luo Tian felt an invisible force field interfering with his True Qi and movements.

However, Luo Tian’s Guiyuan True Qi was too condensed and his physical strength was immense, so the effect on him was minimal.

”Celestial Star Sword Technique, Star River Technique!”

The Wind and Snow Sword in Luo Tian’s hand drew a dazzling, starlit Sword Qi Rainbow Light. Its chilling gleam was profound, like an eternal river of stars hanging in the cosmos.

This sword strike, at the Perfection Level, faintly contained a trace of the vast and boundless momentum of True Intent.

Combined with Luo Tian’s current Cultivation Foundation, it unleashed a strike that would make even the number one on the Human List retreat in alarm.

”This sword strike...”

The purple-robed man and Wang Tian were so horrified they were speechless, a feeling of utter insignificance welling up inside them.

SWISH—BOOM!

The two were engulfed by the star-river-like tide of chilling Sword Light.

The faint black ripples around Wang Tian’s body instantly frosted over and were sliced to pieces.

”Urgh...”

His body stiffened, and a thin line of blood appeared on his neck.

THUD!

Wang Tian’s head fell to the ground, his body and head separated.

CLANG—SHLICK!

On the other side, the purple-robed man barely managed to block Luo Tian’s vast and magnificent Star River strike with his spear.

PFFT!

The purple-robed man flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood. A bloody gash was left on his shoulder and arm.

Halfway through his retreat, a section of the purple-robed man’s arm fell to the ground, blood spraying from the wound.

With a single sword strike, of the two experts ranked second on the Human List, one was dead and the other was maimed.

HISS!

The Third Prince and the Seventh Prince sucked in a sharp breath.

Luo Tian had used only one sword strike.

He had instantly killed Wang Tian and severed the arm of the second-ranked expert from Qiu Yue Kingdom.

What level had Luo Tian’s strength reached?

The green-skirted young woman’s eyes were glazed over, feeling as if she were living in a dream. Her heart had risen and fallen so drastically that she could barely breathe.

”You... how can you possess such strength!”

The purple-robed man was so aghast he was speechless. His face was ashen, and his body trembled.

The strength Luo Tian displayed had absolutely surpassed the number one on the Human List.

Across the entire Royal Secret Garden, perhaps only Young Master Zheng could compete with him.

”No! Luo Tian actually has the strength to surpass number one on the Human List!”

Liu Ziyan’s voice trembled in disbelief.

THUMP!

Her body went limp, and she fell to her knees in terror.

The might of Luo Tian’s single sword strike, which had instantly killed the second-ranked Wang Tian, filled her with extreme fear and despair.

Before Luo Tian now, she was no different from an ant.
