C584 The Seven Profound Nation



C584 The Seven Profound Nation

Along the way, Han Chen and Xue Xi did not say a single word. Xue Xi stayed in the carriage the entire time and did not come out.    

    

During the day, the unicorn flies faster, but at night, it flies slower. However, on the second day alone, they had already reached the borders of The Seven Profound Nation. This speed was much faster than Han Chen had expected.    

    

There were many extremely fast magical beasts, but very few could maintain their speed for a long period of time. As for unicorns, they could be considered a type of unicorns. Not only could they fly for a long period of time, they could also maintain a basically constant speed.    

    

Entering the borders of The Seven Profound Nation, rows upon rows of tall buildings lined the streets, showing a scene of prosperity.    

    

The unicorn pulled the carriage through the air. The people in the city all raised their heads and looked up. However, with a single glance, they all knew that only the Imperial Princess would have such a special demeanor.    

    

On the morning of the third day, Han Chen followed Xue Xi and arrived at the imperial capital of the The Seven Profound Nation.    

    

The imperial city was prosperous.    

    

On the wide streets, there were plenty of people. The willow trees on the lakeshore and the luxurious restaurant danced with birds' song. The walls of the tall buildings were arranged in an orderly manner, giving off the impression that they were from a powerful country.    

    

Han Chen overlooked the prosperity of the imperial city below and his heart was filled with amazement.    

    

Compared to the Yue Lan Empire and the Great Seal, the imperial capital of the The Seven Profound Nation was countless times more prosperous. In comparison, Yue Lan and the Great Seal were simply not worth mentioning in front of the The Seven Profound Nation.    

    

The The Seven Profound Nation's Imperial Palace was located in the center of the imperial city. Looking from afar, Han Chen could see that there were countless of palaces located in the imperial palace.    

    

The imperial palace was heavily guarded. Guards with long spears were patrolling the area. A neat and dignified team, intimidating at first glance.    

    

"Hui!"    

    

The unicorn elder brother roared towards the sky, letting out a loud and clear roar. The other unicorns also began to cry out, their melodious hisses echoing in the sky for a long time.    

    

"It's the princess' mount."    

    

"The princess is back, hurry out of the city to welcome her."    

    

"Quick, quick, go report to His Majesty that the princess has returned."    

    

The palace was in a state of chaos. The leader of the guards quickly led his group of imperial guards out of the city gate to welcome them. The descent of the palace seemed to be rather sudden, leaving them with no time to make preparations.    

    

unicorn boss naturally descended, and didn't need to listen to Han Chen's orders either. After all, this was not the first time they were carrying Xue Xi between two places.    

    

By the time the unicorns descended, there were already hundreds of imperial guards on both sides of the palace gates. They stood tall and straight like javelins, and their faces were filled with reverence and respect.    

    

"Your subordinate welcomes Your Highness back to the palace!"    

    

Han Chen then flipped himself off the back of the One-horned Beast, and leisurely walked towards the carriage in the middle.    

    

At the same time, several valiant commanders of the imperial guards who wore general's armors rushed out of the carriage. One of them was in his thirties, a silver-armored marquis, who was bowing outside, respectfully greeted him with a cupped fist.    

    

"I invite the princess!"    

    

The brocade curtain opened and a white jade hand gently rested on the door frame of the carriage. A beautiful face appeared, with delicate features, but it was also abnormally cold.    

    

A soldier fell to his knees.    

    

Xue Xi lifted her beautiful eyes slightly, stepped on the back of the kneeling soldier, and then walked down. This was the proper etiquette of the The Seven Profound Nation's royalty.    

    

"Your Highness, you've returned." The silver-armored warrior bowed in salute.    

    

"I will do whatever I have to do. There's no need to gather so many people in the future." Xue Xi said indifferently.    

    

"Yes, Your Highness."    

    

"Give him a place to rest." Xue Xi glanced at Han Chen, her tone still calm. After she had finished speaking, she walked into the palace by herself without a single word of conversation.    

    

Looking at the cold and indifferent Princess Xue Xi who looked like an ice blade, the silver armored warrior revealed a helpless expression. The previous princess wasn't like this.    

    

The silver armoured man sighed, and then, the silver armoured warrior looked at Han Chen and said politely. This little brother here, after running for so long, he should be tired! Please come with me to rest. "    

    

"What about these unicorns?"    

    

"Don't worry, little brother!" Someone will take care of them. "    

    

"En!" Han Chen nodded his head, without saying more, he followed the silver-armored general into the imperial palace, and went to the guest courtyard where the outsiders were resting.    

    

Xue Xi arrived outside the Golden Chiming Hall with a group of guards following him, and the king of the The Seven Profound Nation who received the news hurried over to welcome him.    

    

"Xi'er, you're back." A middle-aged man in dragon robes walked out of the Hall of Golden Chimes, surrounded by a crowd of civil and military ministers. He seemed to be in his forties. It was time for the morning assembly, so the ministers were here.    

    

"We welcome your Highness the Princess." The civil and military ministers respectfully shouted in unison.    

    

However, Xue Xi's expression did not change at all, she indifferently glanced at the officials, her beautiful eyes resting on the dragon-robed middle-aged man.    

    

"Father."    

    

"Ai!" Yes, Royal Father is here. "    

    

The king of the The Seven Profound Nation was called Blue Chess, she was eight feet long and had a grand demeanor. And Xue Xi's full name, was also Lan Xue Xi.    

    

He looked quite excited, and his face was full of happiness. He walked up to Xue Xi's side and was about to pull her opponent's hand. Unexpectedly, Xue Xi actually took a step back, and didn't have the slightest intention to get close to her father.    

    

"Xi'er?" He gently clenched his fist and retracted it. "Xi'er, go to the royal study and wait for Father. After I finish my morning assembly, I'll come and find you."    

    

"Alright." Xue Xi calmly replied, and without saying anything else, she walked towards the imperial study alone.    

    

Within the imperial palace, the imperial study.    

    

Xue Xi stood at the edge of the windowsill in her room. The serene atmosphere unconsciously caused her thoughts to return to her childhood.    

    

"Father, do you like Xi'er?"    

    

A five or six-year-old girl was coquettishly sneaking into the arms of a young man at the same time. The man's face was filled with a thick, loving smile. "Of course, the person Father dotes on the most is Xi'er."    

    

"Father, today the teacher taught me a new word, 'dream'. royal father, what is your dream? " The little girl looked at him with her big eyes.    

    

"Dream?" The man thought for a moment, and lightly stroked the little girl's nose. "Royal father's dream is to one day see my Xi'er becoming Seven Profound Peaks, and then, Royal father's face will shine."    

    

"What is a Inner Sect Disciples?"    

    

"Inner Sect Disciples is a very extraordinary kind of person."    

    

"Then will royal father be very happy when I become a Inner Sect Disciples of the Seven Profound Peaks?"    

    

"Of course!" As the man spoke, he couldn't help but sigh and mutter to himself, "The The Seven Profound Nation exists to the Seven Profound Peaks, but there is no one in our imperial family that can become a Inner Sect Disciples. This is somewhat regretful. Furthermore, if one of our royal family can become a core disciple, then our Lan family can protect the throne forever. "    

    

"Father, what are core disciples?"    

    

"A core disciple is someone that is even more amazing than the Inner Sect Disciples. If there comes a day when Xi Er is able to become a core disciple, Royal Father will wake up laughing even in his dreams."    

    

"Hee hee, good!" Great! Then Xi-er will become a core disciple. Xi-er will make Father smile even in his dreams. "    

    

As the memories of the past surfaced in his mind, Xue Xi's mouth curved up into a faint smile.    

    

Just then, the door to the royal study was pushed open, and the king of The Seven Profound Nation, chess Lan, walked in.    

    

Xue Xi's smile faded as she turned around and looked at the other party indifferently.    

    

"Xi'er." In his hand was a plate of exquisite pastries. "The white jade cake that you loved the most in the past, you probably haven't eaten this in the past few years you were in Seven Profound Peaks!"    

    

"Thank you, but I don't like it anymore." Xue Xi replied.    

    

"Ai!" "Xi'er, it's all father's fault. If I didn't give you so much pressure from a young age, you wouldn't be where you are now."    

    

"It's nothing. I think it's good to be like this."    

    

"No, the current you is completely different from before. If I had known back then that a joke from my royal father would have caused you to reach your current state, I would have rather let you … "    

    

"Enough." Without waiting for Blue Chess to finish speaking, Xue Xi interrupted him with a cold voice. You know best if it's a joke. Speak! What's the matter? "    

    

"Xi'er."    

    

"If you have something to say, then say it quickly. I don't have the time to listen to your nonsense."    

    

"You?" He clenched his fists and heaved a deep sigh of relief. Then, he placed the pastries in one spot. He opened his mouth and said, "Xi'er, two months ago, Old General Ge Xuan passed away."    

    

Xue Xi frowned slightly as a trace of surprise flashed past her beautiful eyes.    

    

Old General Ge Xuan was one of the three great elders of the The Seven Profound Nation. He had once fought on the battlefield for the The Seven Profound Nation, and had contributed countless contributions to the battle. With his illustrious military exploits, even the blue chess had to respect him a bit.    

    

Xue Xi's red lips opened slightly, and replied calmly. "When a person gets old, he will eventually die, there's nothing to be surprised about."    

    

"That's right." Lan Shou shook his head resolutely, "Old General Gobo has the cultivation of the fifth level of the Heavenly Completion Stage. It's not a problem for him to live to a hundred and fifty years of age. But this year he's only 120 years old, and his body is very robust. But after he died, he was as thin as a twig, like a dried corpse. "    

    

"Oh?" Xue Xi was surprised, "What reason have you found out?"    

    

"The reason is still unclear, and before the old general's death, he showed no signs of strangeness. The only suspicious point is this thing. "
