Divine King of Honour Chapter 2253: Encountering Familiar Faces Again

"Trying to escape? Dream on."

Just as Xu Nian tore through the void, an Emperor Level expert from the Ancient Divine Clan slashed out with a sword.

An incredibly terrifying sword light instantly pierced through the void.

As Xu Nian traversed the void, he felt an overwhelming killing intent.

Without hesitation, he immediately summoned the Supreme Dragon Robe.

The robe’s protection neutralized a large portion of the force.

However, Xu Nian was still thrust back tens of miles by this terrifying power.

The chaos within his body nearly collapsed.

"What a terrifying strike, this attack from an Emperor Level expert is so fearsome; luckily, I have the Supreme Dragon Robe for protection," Xu Nian muttered to himself, revealing a hint of awe in his mind.

But he didn’t pause and tore through the void once again.

And just as he disappeared, a figure appeared where Xu Nian vanished.

The newcomer was an exceedingly beautiful woman.

The woman furrowed her eyebrows and also tore through the void to give chase.

An Ancient Divine Clan Goddess Emperor?

If Xu Nian were here, he would be surprised to see the one pursuing him was actually a Goddess Emperor.

Xu Nian traversed multiple voids, finally stopping.

Still uneasy, Xu Nian made a few more void tears, but this time he flew off in the opposite direction.

Once he was sure the pursuer hadn’t caught up, Xu Nian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Emperor Level experts are indeed terrifying. Given my current power, I can handle Divine Sovereigns, but before Emperor Level experts, I’m utterly vulnerable," Xu Nian mused.

There’s at least a hundredfold gap between peak Divine Sovereign and First Level Emperor Level.

Such an enormous gap isn’t easily bridged.

I must find a way to continue enhancing my strength.

If all my incarnations reach the peak of Ninth Level Divine Sovereign, perhaps I can contend with early-stage God Emperors.

With this thought, Xu Nian retrieved a Divine Sovereign-level healing pill and began healing.

The residual wave from the Emperor Level expert’s sword light had injured about seventy percent of Xu Nian’s Divine Body.

This was despite the protection of the Supreme Dragon Robe; without it, Xu Nian might already be dead.

Currently, Xu Nian’s multiple incarnations are merged—any injury means all incarnations are hurt, effectively leaving him with only a single physical body.

"Swoosh!"

After healing, Xu Nian broke through the void and left.

Soon, he arrived at an ancient complex, a palace atop a mountain peak.

The palace presently seemed bustling with people.

And these people appeared to be fighting, seemingly having discovered some treasure and were now vying for it.

Originally, Xu Nian intended to stay out of it, but when he saw the three besieged individuals, his face showed a hint of surprise.

For among those under siege, he recognized them.

Leading was the Beichen Divine King he had met years ago, who had now broken through to the early-stage Divine Sovereign level.

Besides him, there were two others: one was Lu Qinxin, who had parted ways with Xu Ping’an early on.

The other was Bai Li, whom Xu Nian hadn’t seen for quite some time.

Seeing Bai Li, thoughts of him first entering the Divine World and receiving her care flashed through Xu Nian’s mind.

If not for Bai Li, he might not have survived in the Divine World at all.

Thus, Xu Nian always harbored deep gratitude towards Bai Li and never forgot his promise to her.

Years ago, he promised her that if he became a God King Level expert, he would help her solve some troubles.

Yet, he hadn’t returned to Tianyu Mountain in these years.

Now, thinking about it, he felt a strong sense of broken promise.

At this moment, guilt welled up in Xu Nian’s heart.

"Thump!"

However, just then, Bai Li was punched in the abdomen by an enemy, her blood spilling in mid-air as her body flew backward swiftly.

The one attacking was a Divine Sovereign-level expert, and this punch nearly destroyed ninety percent of Bai Li’s Divine Body.

Nonetheless, the attacker seemed unrestrained, continuing to move towards Bai Li.

Meanwhile, Beichen Divine King and Lu Qinxin were entirely suppressed, unable to lend aid.

Seeing this, fury instantly filled Xu Nian’s eyes.

"Are we going to die?" Bai Li showed a trace of despair.

She had hoped this time to advance into the Divine Sovereign Level, but she hadn’t expected that right after obtaining an Origin Mark, she’d be hunted by powerful adversaries.

Facing these formidable opponents, she had no power to resist.

Looking at the Divine Sovereign-level expert closing in on her, Bai Li slowly closed her eyes, awaiting death.

In this moment, she was powerless, impossible to survive against such formidable attacks.

In her mind’s eye, the image of a boy appeared—a boy who had once stirred waves in her life.

She wondered where the boy was now.

Had he found his wife?

"Crunch!"

But as Bai Li’s thoughts wandered, the Divine Sovereign-level expert coming towards her suddenly exploded in a horrific surge, his Divine Soul Power disintegrating instantly.

"Huh?" Bai Li exclaimed in shock.

The next moment, her eyes showed extreme disbelief.

For a white figure had appeared before her, looking at her with a smile.

"Sister Bai, long time no see," Xu Nian said with a smile.

"You... you’re Xu Nian?" Bai Li was incredibly surprised.

Xu Nian nodded.

"What’s wrong? Sister Bai, you don’t recognize me anymore?" Xu Nian said with a smile.

"It’s really Xu Nian?" Bai Li came to her senses with an astonishing look.

At first, she thought it was a death illusion, but now she saw Xu Nian standing before her.

She realized she wasn’t hallucinating; Xu Nian was indeed there.

"Yes, it’s me, Sister Bai. I’m sorry, I’m late," Xu Nian said apologetically.

Bai Li stared at Xu Nian in surprise, taking a while to recover: "You’ve reached the Divine Sovereign Level?"

Xu Nian nodded and stepped before Bai Li, handing her a healing pill.

"A Divine Sovereign-level pill?" Bai Li exclaimed in shock.

Xu Nian casually handed her a Divine Sovereign-level pill?

"Take it, I have plenty of these pills, Sister Bai, don’t hold back," Xu Nian smiled.

He wasn’t lying—he had killed many Divine Sovereign-level experts, gaining lots of pills from them.

Now, Xu Nian had a substantial stock of these pills.

Hearing this, Bai Li didn’t hesitate and consumed the pill.

The pill’s effects were potent, quickly stabilizing Bai Li’s injuries and restoring much of her Divine Body.

"Thank you; I didn’t expect to meet you here," Bai Li said.

"I didn’t expect Sister Bai to come to the Desolate Sky Battle Domain either," Xu Nian replied with a smile.

Seeing Bai Li, he felt genuinely happy.

Bai Li looked at the Xu Nian before her; she noticed that Xu Nian was now very different from before.

Standing before her, Xu Nian seemed unfathomable.

He appeared more mysterious and powerful than typical Divine Sovereign-level experts.
