The flames of war filled the imperial capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Troops were constantly moving in and out. The people of the imperial capital were displaced and fleeing in all directions.


    Many people fled to the mountains to hide from the flames of war. Xu Chen and the rest followed the crowd and fled to the mountains to hide as well. They found a cave in the middle of the mountain where they were able to settle down.


    The soldiers that were fighting did not pursue them, but instead, allowed them to flee up the mountain.


    This was the holy land of martial arts cultivators. The people of the Eastern Divine Region mostly cultivated their martial arts, they were all valiant and valiant.


    If it caused a civil rebellion, no matter which empire it was, it would be hard to accept it!


    With Xu Chen''s understanding of the Eastern Divine Region, the Eastern Divine Region could be said to be the safest place in the entire Eastern Xuan Continent.


    This was because the Eastern Divine Region was governed by the empire and was governed by the laws. No matter who entered the Eastern Divine Region, no matter which empire, they would have to register themselves.


    No matter what kind of force he was, no matter how powerful he was, he had to abide by the laws of the Empire. Otherwise, he would provoke the entire Eastern Divine Region!


    Moreover, the Eastern Divine Region had an organization called the Law Enforcer that was formed jointly by the various empires.


    This organization did not care about any disagreements within the Empire and specifically hunted down cultivators from other continents who had violated the law in the Eastern Divine Region.


    This had also created the Eastern Divine Region, this mystical land, and was also the most unique place in the entire Eastern Profound Continent.


    The Empire could have civil wars, and could have wars, but if there were other powers in the Empire, they could have wars.


    Then, the law enforcer''s organization would also cut off this hand.


    Thus, Xu Chen guessed some of the reasons for the war. When he followed the citizens of the Southern Tang Empire up the mountain, Xu Chen also asked him about the situation in the imperial capital.


    The war that broke out in the imperial city was not because of the popular rebellion, but because of the royal family''s battle for the new imperial throne!


    Xu Chen stood at the entrance of the cave with Xu Shengyan and Su Xiaoyue in his arms, looking at the Southern Tang Imperial Capital that was still shrouded in smoke.


    These past few days, while they were escaping, the sounds of killing in the city never stopped. Sometimes, it would even last for an entire night.


    And recently, more and more troops could be seen pouring into the imperial city.


    "Xu Chen, what should we do now?" As Su Xiao Yue watched the situation unfold in the imperial city, she began to worry.


    The rhinoceros was dead, and they couldn''t teleport using runes. They probably wouldn''t even be able to leave the Southern Tang Empire.


    "Just you wait." Xu Chen looked indifferently at the imperial city. It was unknown what he was thinking about as he said, "It won''t last long."


    "Mhmm, I''ll listen to you." Su Xiao Yue looked at Xu Chen''s calm expression and felt a sense of relief.


    Xu Chen seemed to always be this kind of person. No matter what kind of situation he was facing, no matter what kind of situation he was in, he would always be calm and indifferent.


    This was very reassuring.


    "Xu Chen, I understand your secret." Su Xiao Yue suddenly laughed.


    "What secret?" Xu Chen and Xu Shengyan looked curiously at Su Xiao Yue.


    "You are cultivating in the Divine Veins!" Su Xiaoyue revealed a row of canines and said, "But I can''t feel any divine power in you at all. Your cultivation level is too high."


    "Or did he use some treasure to cover up his divine power?"


    "What kind of secret is that?" Xu Chen gently shook his head, smiled and said, "I guess he covered up his divine power with the treasure."


    "Then when you were in the north and told me you didn''t know how to cultivate, I knew you were a liar!" Su Xiao Yue pouted.


    Xu Chen continued to smile but didn''t argue or explain. He didn''t hide it on purpose. There were some things that Su Xiaoyue should know as little as possible.


    "Oh yeah, you said that you want to travel the continent. You also have a treasure that conceals your divine power. You can''t be a genius that came out of some great power to train, right?" Su Xiao Yue asked curiously.


    "Do I look like one?" Xu Chen said.


    "Like, I feel that you''re different from ordinary people. You have a special kind of background that makes people feel comfortable!"


    "Before, I felt that you were an old monster that lived in seclusion. But now, I feel that you are more like the young master of some great power." Su Xiaoyue stared at Xu Chen and said.


    "Big sister Xiao Yue, don''t say that big brother is an old freak!" Xu Shengyan suddenly interrupted and said with a face full of anger, "If big brother is a monster, then smoke is a little monster! Big sister Xiao Yue is a bad person!"


    "Humph!" Xu Shengyan pouted and looked away.


    "Fine, you are all monsters, I am a bad guy!" Looking at Xu Shengyan''s innocent expression, Su Xiaoyue had no way to deal with her.


    Just as Xu Shengyan turned her head away, her large, intelligent eyes accidentally saw the woman in the cave move. She quickly patted Xu Chen''s shoulder.


    "Big brother, that person seems to have moved."


    Xu Chen and Su Xiaoyue looked over and saw that the girl they had rescued from the capital had opened her eyes. She was holding something in her hand and was putting it into her mouth.


    Seeing that, Xu Chen quickly let go of Xu Shengyan and Su Xiao Yue and walked into the cave.


    However, the moment Xu Chen and the rest entered the cave, they discovered that the woman''s pale face had slowly turned a shade of red, and her injuries seemed to have healed by quite a bit.


    "You saved me?" Before Xu Chen and the rest could say anything, the woman quietly looked at Xu Chen and asked.


    Although her voice was very soft, it carried a trace of an irresistible dignity.


    This feeling caused Xu Chen to furrow his brows. However, he still nodded his head and replied, "That''s me."


    "Did you bandage the wound as well?" The woman''s brow furrowed, but her face revealed a proud and unapproachable expression.


    "Yes." Xu Chen looked at her expression, not knowing why he felt suppressed by her.


    "Then you''ve already seen it?" The girl was still as arrogant as before. She did not thank Xu Chen for saving her life. It was as if her arrogance was as natural as the heavens!


    She did not ask Xu Chen what he had seen, but Xu Chen knew what she was asking.


    "You shouldn''t have asked." Xu Chen didn''t directly answer her question, but his meaning was clear.


    "Makes sense." The woman thought for a while and said.


    Soon after, she sat up, and her injuries seemed to have recovered quite a bit. She took out a set of gorgeous clothes from her storage ring and put them on.


    Her actions were very fast, but it did not make anyone feel hurried at all. Instead, it gave people a meticulous and dignified feeling, without any feeling of disharmony.


    "Has she recovered?" Su Xiao Yue looked at the woman as she recovered from her injuries. She was shocked beyond words.


    "She took the Dao-Vein Pill." By now, Xu Chen had already guessed what this woman had just consumed.


    The woman was slightly surprised when she heard the pattern pill coming out of Xu Chen''s mouth. However, it was only this much.


    When this woman was dressed and stood before Xu Chen and Su Xiao Yue, it was obvious that she gave off a powerful aura.


    Su Xiao Yue didn''t dare to look into the woman''s eyes. She even wanted to bow down and worship her.


    However, Xu Chen continued to look calmly at the beautiful woman before him. The look in her eyes gave him a special feeling.


    The woman looked at Xu Chen. In Xu Chen''s deep eyes, all she saw was calmness. This caused her to begin to be interested in this young man.


    "What''s your name?" the woman asked.


    "Xu Chen." Xu Chen had no intention of hiding anything.


    "Xu Chen?" The lady frowned slightly and said, "There is also a person named Xu Chen in the Little Heaven Manor of the Northern Lands. However, he is already dead."


    "My friend told me the same thing." When Xu Chen had first met Su Xiao Yue, Su Xiao Yue had told him the same thing.


    However, the woman did not say much. She only raised her head to look at the smoke filled Southern Tang Imperial City and asked, "How long do you think this war will last?"


    "Very quickly." Xu Chen answered simply, just like he had told Su Xiao Yue.


    "The reason." The woman no longer looked at Xu Chen. She gazed arrogantly into the distance, waiting for Xu Chen''s answer. It was as if she had always been this arrogant in her words.


    "No reason." Xu Chen shook his head.


    "Understood, I will remember that you saved me." After the woman finished speaking, she took a step forward and her figure disappeared from Xu Chen''s sight.


    Only after the woman left did Su Xiao Yue let out a sigh of relief, as if she had just experienced a battle.


    "Xu Chen, she''s so strong. I couldn''t even breathe because of her aura just now." Su Xiao Yue patted her chest.
