Immortal Supreme Sovereign - C111

At the same time, the Xiao family’s army encampment, ‘Has His Highness still not returned?’ Xiao Wei looked at Xuan Sheng and asked.

“Returning to the great army … Commander Han hasn’t returned since he left a month ago. This general is worried that Commander Han might have met with an accident.” Xuan Sheng respectfully said.

If Jiang Yao was here, he would definitely be shocked. Xuan Sheng was a spy that he had groomed a long time ago, and he had a lot of trust in him, otherwise, he wouldn’t have allowed Xuan Sheng to become Han Xiao’s side deputy general. However, he was the one who trusted him so much.

“I was worried about this too, so I called you over. Is there anything unusual with the army during this period?” Xiaoxia asked with a frown.

“No answer to the Grand Army. On the contrary, Captain Chou seemed to have changed after he woke up. Not only did he not pursue Commander Han’s disappearance, he even changed his tent.” Xuan Sheng said.

“Mm, I understand. You should go back first. Remember to pay attention to the situation in the Vermillion Bird army. If anything strange happens then inform me immediately.” Xiao Wei said as he nodded.

“Yes, this lowly general will take his leave then.” With that, Xuan Sheng respectfully left.

As soon as Xuan Sheng left Xiao Benin, he came to Carefree Gorge because of Han Xiao. However, he didn’t get any news from Carefree Gorge and immediately became anxious.

“It’s not good for the Grand Army to continue like this. His Highness the Crown Prince has been missing for more than a month. This general is truly worried that his Highness the Crown Prince has met with some mishap.” Xiao Benin said worriedly.

Seeing Xiao Benin’s worried look, Xiao Wei frowned and said, “Benin, calm down first. The Crown Prince might be out on some business, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

“It’s been over a month since we’ve served under the general army. It’s fine even if we have something to do in this special period of time.” Xiao Benin said with dissatisfaction.

“Perhaps there really is no way for the Great Army and the Xiao Army to handle this matter of mine.” A familiar voice sounded out from the door. Xiao Wei and Benin raised their heads and saw a blue-clothed Han Xiao walking in with a faint smile.

“Your Highness the Crown Prince.” Seeing Han Xiao’s sudden appearance, Xiao Benin and Xiao Wei’s faces were filled with joy, especially Xiao Benin, who excitedly went up and grabbed Han Xiao’s shoulder, and was relieved to see that Han Xiao was indeed alright.

“Xiao Junjun, if you continue to try and capture me like this, I will be in trouble.” Han Xiao helplessly said with a smile.

Hearing Han Xiao say this, Benin immediately realized that he had lost his composure, and immediately let Han Xiao go and knelt down, “Your Highness, this general has been rude. Please punish me.”

“Quickly, get up. I was just joking.” Han Xiao helplessly said as he helped Xiao Benin up.

“Your Highness, I wonder how long you have been here?” Xiao Wei asked hesitantly.

Seeing Xiaoxia’s hesitant appearance, Han Xiao smiled apologetically and said, “It’s not anything important. I went out to cultivate for more than a month, but I didn’t tell you because I came on the spur of the moment. I made you worry.”

Hearing Han Xiao say that he had only gone out to cultivate, Xiao Wei and Benin let out a breath of relief. Actually, they were really worried that Han Xiao had suddenly run back to the Imperial City and met with some mishap.

“Since the crown prince is fine, this general is relieved.” Xiaoxia said.

“It’s precisely because I’m afraid that you’ll be worried that I came here to report my safety to you all as soon as I got back.” Han Xiao said.

“Since the crown prince is fine, this general can rest assured. The crown prince must be tired after cultivating for a month. Let me send you back to your camp to rest.” Xiao Benin respectfully said.

“No need, I’ll go back by myself.” Han Xiao turned around with a wave of his hand, but just as he was about to walk away, he stopped and looked at Xiao Xianxuan as he asked calmly, “Xuan Sheng is a member of the united army, right?”

Hearing Han Xiao’s words, Xiao Qian’s pupils constricted. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Han Xiao.

“I don’t have any intention of questioning the Grand Army. If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.” With that, Han Xiao’s figure disappeared from the tent, and Xiao Benin and Xiao Qian only saw the edge of his robes swaying.

After he confirmed that Han Xiao had indeed left, Xiao Wei meaningfully said, “Looks like the Crown Prince has reaped a great harvest this time.”

“But the matter of the Great Unification Sect’s Grand Examination.” Benin asked, a look of concern flashing across his face.

“What happened to Xuanyuan Sheng? The crown prince did not say anything either. ” Xiao Wei lightly said as he looked at Xiao Benin, “Benin, you should change your personality. Don’t be so impatient when things happen, think about everything before saying anything. Alright, I still have some things to do, you can leave first.”

“Yes, this lowly general will take his leave.” Benin turned and left.

On the other side, Han Xiao returned to the Vermillion Bird Army and did not return to his own tent. Instead, he went straight to find Xuan Sheng, but when he arrived at his own tent, he found out that Xuan Sheng was not in his own tent.

Arriving at the training field, Han Xiao saw Xuan Sheng in the middle of the training field with Murong Ta and the other two. The two weren’t using source energy, but were simply battling in the martial arts arena.

“Clank, clank, clank.” In the blink of an eye, Xuan Sheng and Murong Qiao had fought for over twenty rounds, both of them were extremely ruthless, their attacks aimed at each other’s vitals, as if the other wasn’t a close acquaintance of theirs but an enemy.

Seeing the two training, Han Xiao did not want to disturb them, so he just stood there watching the two practice, while analyzing their strength, he looked very relaxed.

“Clang!” Following Xuan Sheng’s flippant movement that destroyed the long spear in Murong Qiao’s hands, the two of them had a draw, and even though Murong Qiao lost, but he was not angry nor angry as he lightly smiled and said: “General Xuan’s swordsmanship has improved a lot, it seems like I need to work hard too.”

“Murong Qiu, your spear skills are hard to find opponents for, but today, I’ve only been able to win because of your cultivation base.” Xuan Sheng faintly smiled as he spoke.

Right at this moment, the two of them heard a round of applause. They turned around and saw Han Xiao, who had disappeared for a month, standing outside of the training grounds, looking at the two of them with a smile.

“Commander Han.” Seeing Han Xiao, the two of them had faces full of disbelief. After a long while, Xuan Sheng was the first to react, walking out of the training grounds quickly with an excited look on his face as he looked at Han Xiao.

“Commander Han, you’ve finally returned. Where have you been for the past month?” Xuan Sheng asked.

“I’m going out to cultivate. I just saw that you guys have all improved quite a bit during your fight.” Han Xiao said with a smile.

“Commander Han, your cultivation is already at the early Spirit Apostle stage. In order to not drag us down, we have no choice but to improve ourselves.” At this point, he was no longer looking at Han Xiao with hatred, but was slowly smiling.

Seeing the change in Murong Qiu, Han Xiao revealed a gentle smile and said: “Looks like you haven’t been idle for the past month. Good timing, I’ve developed a new footwork technique for you to try, and let me see your progress for the past month.” After Han Xiao finished speaking, the wind attributed Origin Energy wrapped around the tip of his feet and disappeared.

Seeing Han Xiao disappear, Xuan Sheng and Murong Qiao instantly became alert, using their spirit sense to scan their surroundings but unable to detect any movement.

“I’m here.” Suddenly, Han Xiao’s voice came from behind Xuan Sheng. Xuan Sheng immediately turned his head to strike out with his palm, but his palm only hit the air, and Han Xiao’s figure had already disappeared.

“To the right.” Murong Wei shouted and punched to his right, but it only hit the air, while Han Xiao came out from his left.

Gently patting Murong Qiu’s shoulder, Han Xiao hid himself again and quickly moved between Xuan Sheng and Murong Qiu.

Murong Qiu and Xuan Sheng could only feel that the wind around them was stronger than before, but they couldn’t sense anything else, not even Han Xiao’s figure.

After a while, Xuan Sheng really couldn’t hold on any longer and could only wave his hand and say: “Commander Han, Murong Fu and I have admitted defeat. We really couldn’t find your figure.”

Hearing Xuan Sheng’s words, Han Xiao walked out from in front of the two of them and smiled: “What do you think about my footwork?”

“Although I don’t know what the other footwork methods are like, this lowly general thinks that Commander Han’s footwork should be considered superior.” Murong Qiao said.

“I also think so.” Xuan Sheng said.

“I myself think that this is at most a medium level footwork technique. I …” Han Xiao was interrupted by a voice before he could finish his sentence.

“Vice General Xuan, you’re really here. Eh, Commander Han has returned.” Han Xiao turned around and saw Bai Feng’s excited expression, “Bai Feng, I’m back. What business do you have with Xuan?”

“Commander Han, you’re looking for you here, there are a few people outside, they said that your friends are here to see you, and one of them even said that he is, and that’s right, he said that he is the crown prince of the Ao Sky Emperor Empire, Han …” Just as Bai Feng finished speaking, he felt a gust of wind blow past Han Xiao, and he had already disappeared, and Xuan Sheng and Murong Xiao also hurriedly chased after him.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the army camp, Han Xiao saw that there were four people fighting against the patrolling soldiers. The four people were Xi Yun, Zhao Xiang, Xiao Ke Er and Xiao Mo Ke, and one of them Xi Yun had a much higher aura than before, as if he had already broken through to the Soul Transformation stage.

“You can leave now, they are my friends.” Seeing the few of them, Han Xiao quickly walked forward and said to the patrolling soldiers.

Seeing Han Xiao say that he was his friend, the patrolling soldiers all retreated, allowing Han Xiao to walk in front of them.

“Xi Yun, Ke Er, Zhao Xiang, Xiao Mo … What’s wrong with you two?” Han Xiao hadn’t finished speaking when he saw a fist directly attack him. He extended his hand to grab ahold of the helpless and furious Xiao Ke Er and said, “Ke Er, if you want to hit me next time, you can change methods. Moreover, I don’t seem to have committed any great crimes, right?
