Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2538: Meeting Xiao Jin and Xiao Ling Again

“Launching an attack on the imperial palace of the Cloudsurge Empire will take quite some time. What if the Rain Abbess suddenly returns? We have no one who can handle the Rain Abbess on our side,” Jian Chen stated his worry. After all, this was a significant matter. They would be directly attacking the imperial capital of the Cloudsurge Empire. They would develop irreconcilable grievances as a result and completely offend the Rain Abbess.

“You don’t need to worry about that. Since we’re bold enough to attack their imperial capital, we have obviously made sufficient preparations to deal with any sudden changes to the situation.” Cheng Ming guaranteed like success was within his grasp.

“Originally, our Empyrean Demon Cult planned on attacking the Cloudsurge Empire a month later because we’re currently weaker in terms of Chaotic Primes. We needed some more preparation to guarantee complete success. But now that you’re here, we can launch the attack early.”

“Of course, there’s no need for you to give me your reply immediately. You can tell me your decision in three days’ time. You should go see Xiao Ling and Xiao Jin now. They’ve returned.” With that, Cheng Ming used the power of the divine hall to send Jian Chen back to the hall he was in earlier.

The protectors of the Tian Yuan clan continued to wait there quietly, but their unease was clearly depicted on their faces.

However, Jian Chen ignored them. His gaze was already locked onto the two extra figures that had appeared.

The two figures consisted of a male and a female. The female seemed like a child. She only seemed to be twelve or thirteen. She was wearing a white dress, and her pretty face was filled with purity. She seemed slightly immature. With a single glance, it was possible to tell that she was a little girl who had not matured yet.

The male seemed to be seventeen or eighteen. Although he did not seem old, he possessed a presence of slaughter that completely did not match his age. A heavy smell of blood seemed to waft from him.

He seemed like a merciless god of slaughter who had just retreated from a corpse-ridden battlefield; it seemed like he had bathed in the blood of countless enemies in the past.

The two of them were Xiao Jin and Xiao Ling.

“Big brother!” Xiao Ling’s eyes immediately reddened when she saw Jian Chen. She called out in complete joy and surprise and hugged Jian Chen tightly.

“Xiao Ling, I’ve finally found you. Have you been well in the past few years?” Jian Chen smiled and asked sincerely and softly. He rubbed Xiao Ling’s head gently.

Several decades had passed, but Xiao Ling had not changed at all. Her mental state remained the same as before.

“Brother,” Xiao Jin said. He looked at Jian Chen in delight.

After several decades, Xiao Jin had changed drastically. Both his strength and mental state were no longer the same as before.

Now, he wore golden armor with his long, golden hair let down. He was wrapped up in a presence of slaughter and a bloody smell. Who knows how much blood he had been doused with and how many tests of life and death he had gone through. He seemed like a miniature god of slaughter.

“Xiao Jin, you’ve grown!” Jian Chen stared at Xiao Jin deeply. He was glad. From Xiao Jin’s presence alone, Jian Chen discovered that he had truly become someone who could hold up responsibilities. He was no longer the ignorant little boy from before.

“I never thought you would become a Godking so fast, and a mid Godking at that.” Jian Chen saw through Xiao Jin’s strength with a single glance and was left amazed.

Xiao Jin’s rate of growth had really surprised him.

“Brother, I only have these accomplishments because of grandpa Cheng. It was grandpa Cheng who used many resources to nurture me, which was why I was able to become a mid Godking in such a short amount of time,” said Xiao Jin. His voice was filled with respect towards his grandpa Cheng.

However, Xiao Jin seemed to think of something soon afterwards. He was gloomy as he sighed and said, “It’s just a pity that it’s extremely difficult to increase sister Xiao Ling’s strength. Otherwise, she would be a Godking like me or even far beyond that.”

“Hehe, I don’t want to become a Godking at all. Cultivation is so boring. There’s grandpa Cheng and master protecting me in the Empyrean Demon Cult anyway and big brother to protect me outside. Moreover, brother Xiao Jin has become so powerful. In the future, he can protect me. I would like to see who would bully me. Hmph.” Xiao Ling stuck out her tongue and said mischievously. She was truly pure and innocent, without any worries.

Looking at how Xiao Ling did not care, Xiao Jin remained silent. He had truly grown now, so he was able to see the full side of things. He understood that the only way to survive in this world was through immense personal strength; this was the absolute law.

Others could protect you temporarily, but it would be very difficult for them to do so forever.

Jian Chen looked at Xiao Ling silently. Obviously, he knew why Xiao Ling struggled to increase her strength; it was because she was incomplete. She suffered from innate defections, which prevented her mind from maturing. She remained like a twelve year old even after so much time.

It was relatively easier for Xiao Ling’s strength to increase below Godhood, as there is no need to comprehend the laws of the world at such a level. At the same time, Xiao Ling was a natural spirit, so she was born at the Origin realm. She basically did not have to spend any time cultivating, so the effects from her defects were not particularly severe.

However, after reaching Godhood, the comprehension of the laws of the world was required for each level of cultivation. Xiao Ling’s limited thinking capacity obviously became her greatest restraint.

“Xiao Ling, I will definitely fix your defections,” Jian Chen secretly swore to himself.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Jian Chen met up with grand elder Cheng Ming again and agreed to work with the Empyrean Demon Cult to attack the imperial capital of the Cloudsurge Empire.

Cheng Ming was not surprised by this at all. He immediately passed down an order. “Alright then. Since that’s the case, let’s move right now. Cloud Demon, Wind Demon, Blood Demon, Blade Demon, are you present?”

“Greetings to the grand elder!” Four figures silently appeared from the darkness. All of their presences were tremendous, possessing terrifying strength.

The four of them were the four generals of the Empyrean Demon Cult.

Originally, the Empyrean Demon Cult had five generals. One of them died at the hands of the Heavenless Demon Exalt when he went to the Cloud Plane with the grand elder, so only four of them remained.

Jian Chen’s eyes narrowed. He could tell with a single glance that the four of them were all Chaotic Primes.

However, all of them showed great respect towards Cheng Ming.

“Pass down my orders. Set off with the army as soon as possible and begin the attack on the Cloudsurge Empire,” the grand elder called out.

“Yes, grand elder!”
