839: Race against time, escape from death

Canglan Imperial City.

A middle-aged man wearing a Dragon robe with an aura like an abyss sat on the Dragon throne. His gaze was profound, and his body radiated an extremely strong sense of majesty.

This person was none other than The Emperor of the Canglan Immortal Dynasty, Baili Ting, and simultaneously the renowned Great Emperor Baili of the Eastern Immortal Domain, the undisputed number one person in the Eastern Immortal Domain.

"Father, Yang Lingchen is a benefactor to this son and Yue Xin. The Crown Prince arrested him for no reason. Please, Father, make a decision for this son." Baili Tiance bowed respectfully.

"Yun'er, what is going on with this Yang Lingchen? Why did you arrest him?" The Emperor asked.

"Father, Yang Lingchen moved against my fiancée, so he must pay the price with his life. No matter who comes, it will not work." Baili Jianyun said with a firm tone.

"Baili Jianyun, Yang Lingchen is my benefactor. If you dare to touch him, do not blame me for being impolite to you." Baili Tiance looked at Baili Jianyun coldly.

"Baili Tiance, I call you Third Imperial Brother only because you are older than me. If you dare to spout nonsense in front of me again, do not blame me for not giving you Face." Baili Jianyun's eyes flashed with a trace of disdain.

The two brothers were at daggers drawn and started arguing directly.

"Enough, stop arguing!"

The Emperor shouted, saying, "Ce'er, while Yang Lingchen may have been a benefactor to you, he moved against the Crown Prince's fiancée, which harms the Luck and Face of our Canglan Immortal Dynasty. Let Yun'er handle this matter!"

"Father!" A trace of unwillingness flashed in Baili Tiance's eyes.

"You may both leave!" The Emperor waved his hand.

"Thank you, Father!" A faint smile appeared on Baili Jianyun's Face, and he retreated.

Seeing this, Baili Tiance could only follow and retreat as well.

"Baili Jianyun, what will it take for you to let Yang Lingchen go?" Baili Tiance chased after him.

"Let him go! Do not even think about it. Anyone who dares to touch the woman I have my eye on must die, no matter who they are." Baili Jianyun said coldly.

"Your Highness, the soul lamp of Eunuch Liu has gone out."

Just then, a young eunuch hurried over.

"What about Yang Lingchen?" Baili Jianyun raised an eyebrow.

"Yang Lingchen must have escaped." The young eunuch said.

"Escaped? How is that possible?" Baili Jianyun frowned, and a cold chill radiated from his body.

The young eunuch was shaking with fear and hurriedly said, "The soul lamp Palace reported that Eunuch Liu's soul lamp went out before he even left the dungeon. Therefore, the little one speculates that the Eunuch Liu who walked out of the dungeon must be Yang Lingchen in disguise."

"Courting death!" A cold light flashed in Baili Jianyun's eyes, and his figure instantly turned into a bolt of lightning, flying towards outside the city.

Seeing this, a faint smile appeared on Baili Tiance's Face. He did not chase after him because he knew his own strength; it was impossible for him to catch up to Baili Jianyun, and even if he did, he would not be able to stop Baili Jianyun.

...

At this moment, Yang Lingchen had already flown more than a hundred thousand kilometers, but he still did not stop.

While flying, he had already completely refined the blood qi and Soul of Eunuch Liu, and his cultivation level had successfully risen to the Peak of the first level of the Spirit Immortal Realm.

After the Fusion of Eunuch Liu's memories, Yang Lingchen knew that the Canglan Immortal Dynasty had a hall specifically for managing soul lamps, so Baili Jianyun would probably know about Eunuch Liu's death very soon.

At that time, the other party would definitely launch a pursuit against him. If he did not escape further away now, the consequences would be unimaginable once the other party caught up.

Soon, Yang Lingchen arrived at a vast mountain range. This mountain range was filled with overlapping Peaks and continuous ridges, and the jungle inside was extremely dense; it could be considered a true kingdom of Yao Beast.

This was the largest mountain range in the Eastern Immortal Domain, the Mist Mountain Range.

The reason Yang Lingchen entered the Mist Mountain Range was actually for his own safety. If a Cultivator in the Immortal King Realm wanted to find a Cultivator in the Spirit Immortal Realm, it would be very easy.

Once the cultivation level reaches the Immortal King Realm, the range of Divine Sense is very vast. If Yang Lingchen had stayed in the Canglan Imperial City, the other party could easily lock onto his location just by circling the city.

Even if he escaped the Canglan Immortal Dynasty, it would be very difficult for him to escape if the other party really wanted to pursue him. Therefore, his only chance lay in the Mist Mountain Range; only by entering this mountain range did he have a certain degree of confidence in avoiding the other party's Divine Sense.

"What a cunning brat. I did not expect you to have actually escaped here."

Just moments after Yang Lingchen entered the Mist Mountain Range, Baili Jianyun's mocking voice came from behind.

"Damn it." Yang Lingchen's Face turned pale instantly. His speed was already fast enough, but he did not expect the other party to have still caught up.

Without time to think, Yang Lingchen hurriedly activated the Blood Escape Technique, frantically burning the Bloodline within his body. Suddenly, his body turned into a blood shadow and instantly dived into the dense forest.

"You still want to escape in front of this Crown Prince? You are simply daydreaming." A trace of mockery appeared in Baili Jianyun's eyes.

He did not take Yang Lingchen's speed boost to heart.

He did not want to kill Yang Lingchen immediately; he wanted the other party to collapse in despair and then die in that collapse.

Yang Lingchen's speed was very fast, but no matter how fast he was, Baili Jianyun followed behind him unhurriedly.

An hour later, Yang Lingchen arrived at a cliff. This cliff was impassable to flying birds, shrouded in mist all year round, and wisps of thick black Qi rose continuously from the bottom of the cliff, making people afraid to approach from afar.

This was the Desperate Cliff.

It was rumored that the Desperate Cliff was unfathomable. Over hundreds of millions of years, countless people had fallen down, but no one had ever been able to climb back up alive.

A trace of despair flashed in Yang Lingchen's eyes. He could see that this cliff was extremely dangerous; if he fell down, it would definitely be a situation with no chance of survival.

"Why did you stop? Keep running!" Baili Jianyun's eyes held a trace of mockery, his Divine Sense tightly locked onto Yang Lingchen.

"Run your mother's ass, you stupid dog. I didn't dig up your ancestral grave, why the hell are you chasing me relentlessly!" Yang Lingchen cursed angrily.

Forced to this point, he could no longer hold back.

"Good brat, you dare to be so arrogant even when facing death. No wonder you dared to move against my woman." A cold glint appeared in Baili Jianyun's eyes.

"You should be glad that your mother doesn't know me, otherwise you might have to call me stepfather now." Yang Lingchen mocked.

Since it was a dead end anyway, he might as well annoy the other party as much as possible.

"Courting death." Baili Jianyun's Face turned cold. He waved his right hand, and a powerful suction force swept towards Yang Lingchen.

Under the effect of this suction force, Yang Lingchen's body instantly floated up and then flew uncontrollably towards Baili Jianyun.

"Whoosh...!"

Suddenly, a huge Sword Qi descended from the sky and instantly slashed towards Baili Jianyun. Immediately after, an enchantingly beautiful figure appeared in front of Yang Lingchen.
