Chapter 291 - The Vile Jimen Kang

The fourth prince managed to bring some of the new disciples with him to tail Sylphie. The feeling of nervousness did not vanish as he watched Sylphie walked out of the imperial palace. He rarely felt this kind of thing and it only happens when a very bad situation was about to happen, so he did not dare take this premonition lightly.

’I just hope that I’m just overthinking things.’ The fourth prince prayed in his heart.

"Brother, why did you want us to follow that girl here? Is something wrong?" Princess Sylvia looked at her brother as she asked that question. Her brother was normally a calm person and he would never let her do anything without a reason, so why did he bring them here?

Prince Dante glanced deeply at his sister and replied in a serious voice. "I don’t know, but I feel that something bad will happen to her. I know this sounds weird and I don’t know how I can explain this to you guys, but just trust me on this. If I’m wrong, then that would be for the best..."

Princess Sylvia and the others no longer pursued the matter when they saw the somber expression of the fourth prince. They knew that he would not lie about matters like this. And with that in mind, they solemnly followed Sylphie while they checked the surroundings.

Sylphie who was still unaware that she was being tailed by her fellow sect disciples continued on her way. As someone who had experienced many things in life, she was the careful type of person. She was looking warily at her surroundings as she went back to the Heavenly Sword Tower. However, at this moment, she had many things in her mind and it made her less vigilant. She did not even sense Prince Dante and the others following her from a distance.

Hm?

Finally, she sensed a thick killing intent which immediately made her jump out in shock.

’Shit! I was careless!’ She cursed in her heart as she took out the new sword that she got from the sect. It was blood-red in color and it drew a crimson arc in the air as she brandished it. This was not an ordinary weapon and from the looks of it, this sword should be an Earth Weapon!

Sylphie narrowed her eyes as she stared in a certain direction. That was the place where she had felt that icy killing intent.

"Show yourself! You think I would not notice you?!" Sylphie glared in front of her as she tightly held her sword. She already had an idea of who this person might be. There was only one group of people that came into her mind, the Crimson Sun Sect!

Prince Dante and the others thought that they were discovered when they heard Sylphie’s words, but they did not immediately reveal themselves.

"Wait. She seems to be looking in a different direction and it doesn’t look like she had found us. It looks like my guess was indeed right. Everyone, prepare for battle! Wait for my signal." Prince Dante commanded as he took out his sword. Princess Sylvia and the others nodded their heads and they also took out their swords when they sensed the abnormality of the situation.

Clap. Clap. Clap.

"To think that the slave I bought has actually become a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Tower. This is definitely a joyous matter, but I still feel hurt because of your sudden disappearance." A voice echoed in the darkness amidst the clapping sounds. Not long later, a man wearing bright red and gold robes emerged in front of Sylphie. He had a smiling expression as he stared at Sylphie’s young figure.

"It’s you! You fucking bastard! Jimen Kang!" Sylphie pointed at the man with a shaking arm. She was very familiar with this man since this was the guy who had bought her after she had lost everything in her childhood.

This man was Jimen Kang, the young master of the Crimson Sun Sect. He already wields great power and authority at a young age since his father was the current sect master of the sect. He had no lack of cultivation resources and his father had also helped him cultivate to the peak of the 6th-rank King realm! He was only 26 this year and with such a high level of cultivation, his talent was evident.

"Jimen Kang! Do you really want the Crimson Sun Sect to become enemies with the Heavenly Sword Tower?! Since you know that I have recently become their disciple, then you should know that there would be a terrible consequence if you dare to harm me!" Sylphie was deeply afraid of this man, so she used the name of her sect to make him hesitant. She knew that he was here for her and she did not want to go back to that damned place!

Jimen Kang’s face changed when Sylphie mentioned the Heavenly Sword Tower. His father had specifically told him to never mess with this sect, but he could not just easily give up on this woman. She had served him as a loyal dog all those years ago and he had already thought of her as his possession, so how could he easily give up on her?

"You’re right. The Heavenly Sword Tower is indeed a terrifying behemoth, but if I capture you right now. Do you think they would seek for a new disciple who had suddenly disappeared? Hahaha!" Jimen Kang laughed evilly as he stared at Sylphie’s beautiful figure. She had cleaned up herself now and she looked even more beautiful when she wore her new sect robes. This sight made Jimen Kang even more resolute in capturing Sylphie tonight. As for the Heavenly Sword Tower’s retaliation, he did not think that they would search for a newly admitted disciple who had suddenly gone missing. After all, even his Crimson Sun Sect would not care if such a thing happened to them.

Sylphie became uncomfortable when she noticed the lustful gaze of Jimen Kang. Her heartbeat became unstable as she firmly held her sword. From the looks of it, her only option left was to fight.

"You damned bastard! If I manage to escape here, let’s see if your Crimson Sun Sect would still protect you!" Sylphie shouted in a shaking voice as she pointed the tip of her sword to Jimen Kang.

A flash of killing intent flickered in Jimen Kang’s eyes when he heard her words, but he merely chuckled at her. "Did you really think that you can escape from me? You fucking slut! You are just my plaything and you don’t have the goddamn rights to escape from me, Jimen Kang!"

Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh.

Following his words, more than twenty silhouettes emerged and surrounded Sylphie like ghosts. They were all wearing the same set of red and gold robes as Jimen Kang.

"Hahaha! Do you see this? Let me see how you escape from this encirclement." Jimen Kang chuckled mockingly as he looked at Sylphie’s pale face.

These people were disciples of the Crimson Sun Sect and they were direct subordinates of Jimen Kang. All of them were elite disciples nurtured by their sect, so he was confident about their power. How could a lone girl escape from them? Thinking about this, Jimen Kang fantasized about Sylphie’s young and curvy body. He wasn’t unfamiliar with it since he had already forced her to do filthy things before. The more he thought about it, the more insane his expression had become.

Looking at the situation from afar, Princess Sylvia gnashed her teeth in anger and she almost dashed out, but her brother prevented her from making any move.

"Sister, just wait a little bit more." Princess Sylvia wanted to pull her hand away from his grip, but when she saw the expression of her brother, she calmed herself.

Prince Dante had an enraged expression as he stared at the scene ahead of them. They have heard everything that Jimen Kang has spoken.

At this moment, the silent Yang Zenke suddenly opened his mouth. "That guy Jimen Kang is a peak stage 6th-rank King realm cultivator. As for the rest of them, they are at least 5th-rank Spirit realm cultivators, but what I’m worried about are those two people hiding in the shadows."

The expression of Prince Dante and the others became somber when they heard his words.

"Brother Yang, how strong do you think those two people are?" Prince Dante asked solemnly.

Yang Zenke shook his head as he replied. "I’m not yet certain. I don’t want to observe them too much since they might discover our presence. However, from the small clues I’ve noticed, they should be at least experts at the 7th-rank Emperor realm... It could also be possible that they are 8th-rank Divine realm experts..."

Hearing that, everyone’s expression drastically changed. They finally realized that tonight might be dangerous for them as well. Thinking about that, they could not help but hold onto their swords with more force, their eyes flickering with strong battle intent.
