Chapter 542: End of the Trials

Chapter 542: End of the Trials

The outcome of this trial was bizarre. Many of the large factions of the Tian Yuan world present found it incredible that Yi Yun and Lin Xintong were able to kill Shen Tu Nantian as well as several Dao Seed realm warriors.

As many of the young elites were pressed by their family Elders, they began to narrate everything that had happened within the Great Empress mystic realm.

They started from the beginning of the trial, to the number of Empyrean Marks Yi Yun had obtained, until the mental demon trial, followed by the God Advent Tower…

The news about the evaluation criteria set up by the ancient Great Empress at the black stone square, which went from Knight to Canonized God, shocked everyone.

Many factions found it hard to accept that the peerless geniuses they had painstakingly nurtured were only of such a low rank in the eyes of the ancient Great Empress. Some of them even failed to meet the lowest rank…

This made many of the legendary figures realize the difficulty of the Great Empress mystic realms trials.

However, despite such a high degree of difficulty, they were informed that Yi Yun and Lin Xintong managed to obtain the recognition of the ancient Great Empress inside the God Advent Tower. They had obtained a portion of the Great Empress inheritance!

This was simply unbelievable.

And from the looks of it, Yi Yun and Lin Xintong had already mastered a portion of the Great Empress inheritance, or else their cultivation level and power would not have increased by such leaps and bounds.

Logically speaking, the higher grade a cultivational inheritance was, the harder it would be to master. Yi Yun and Lin Xintong had only received the inheritance roughly half a year ago, so how did they manage to master it so quickly?

We are returning to our family clan!

An Elder said with a grim face. Many Elders were envious and jealous of Yi Yun and Lin Xintong. They had busied themselves so much, sending the most outstanding elites within their factions to participate in the mystic realm trials, but they only ended up being eliminated, with nothing to show for it all.

The frustration in their hearts was understandable.

There was no longer any meaning in remain here. Many people from the various factions had left, however, there were still a few family clans remaining as they eyed the Great Empress mystic realm.

They secretly sent their people to watch the surroundings of the Great Empress mystic realm. They wanted to see if they could locate Yi Yuns whereabouts.

Even though they had heard their young elites say that Yi Yun and Lin Xintong was planning to remain in reclusion in the Great Empress mystic realm for a hundred years, there was still some doubts coming from these family clans. They also hoped that they would be lucky.

Assigning people to stand guard was, after all, not something that cost them much…

Similarly, the Shen Tu family clan was not planning on leaving.

Shen Tu Jue and company had already accepted the facts, but they were still simmering with anger, with nowhere to vent it.

Not only had Yi Yun foiled their scheme against the Lin family, they had also been forced to reveal the Great Empress mystic realm publicly because of him. He had also caused all of their elites to be wiped out in the Great Empress mystic realm. Their family clans successor, Shen Tu Nantian also died tragically. It was hard to even try to describe their terrible losses.

For this Great Empress mystic realms trial, they had been the organizer as well as the discoverer, but they had ended up as the biggest loser!

Yi Yun! Lin Xintong! Shen Tu Jues expression was gloomy. The aura he silently emitted caused the surrounding swirling storms to stagnate.

Beside Shen Tu Jue was Thousand Hand Granny, who was now battered out of her wits. She suddenly trembled and raised her head, revealing her bloodshot eyes. She snapped, The Lin family must have known about this matter earlier on. This must be why they left prematurely! We must make the Lin family pay! Didnt Lin Xintong and Yi Yun also kill several young elites from the other family clans? We can form an alliance and charge against the Lin family, wiping them all out!

Wiping them all out? Shen Tu Jue coldly grunted and said in a heavy tone, Did you not hear it just now? Yi Yun and Lin Xintong have already declared that they have cut their ties to the Lin family inside the mystic realm. If I am not wrong, after the Lin family returns to their territory, they will definitely begin defensive preparations, as well as announce that they are severing relations with Lin Xintong and Yi Yun!

It is likely that Lin Xintong and Yi Yun will not return to the Lin family for the next few hundred years. With the Lin family not having the Great Empress inheritance, how can coercing the other factions to attack and decimate the Lin family be easy? Against a large family clan with a deep heritage, who is also well-prepared, even if we manage to gain victory, we would also suffer heavy losses. Then, in the future, once Yi Yun and Lin Xintong have matured and become peerless Great Emperors, the two of them might come back and settle the scores. When that happens, all the factions involved in the attack against the Lin family will suffer!

Who would want to do such a rewardless task?

As for Yi Yun and Lin Xintong killing the other family clans disciples, it might be quite regretful to have a few young elites dead, but that was in a mystic realm. It is expected that there will be death in mystic realms. Those who were killed can only blame themselves for being weaker than others. Furthermore, they were the ones who launched a sneak attack first. Reason was not on their side. As long as the Lin family pays a sufficient amount of reparations, these factions will not lose face, and might not even try to seek redress on this matter ever again!

Under these circumstances, what use is there for us to go to against the Lin family!? Shen Tu Jue snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves heavily.

The Shen Tu family clan had lost a great deal of their future elites. If they forcefully went to war with the Lin family, resulting in many of the older generation dying, and with their juniors gone, then the Shen Tu family clans foundation really would be shaken. It was even possible for them to completely collapse!

Although Shen Tu Jue was furious, he did not let it get to his head. He still weighed the interests of the family clan.

As for the grudge over Shen Tu Nantian and companys death…

Thousand Hand, take some people and stay guard around this area. Yi Yun must know of other exits. If you are able to find them, make them die miserably! Shen Tu Jue waved his hand. He seemed like he was unwilling to think about this matter that had given him a great setback.

Thousand Hand Granny nodded her head grimly. Her wrinkled eyes emitted a ferocious flash that resembled a vultures.

A hundred years was not long for a warrior like her!

She had to tear Yi Yun apart so as to appease the hatred in her heart!

…

Half a month later, above a vast and empty land in the Tian Yuan world.

A lone towering peak stood here. It reached high up into the clouds and resembled a gigantic sword that fell from the sky and stabbed into the ground. From afar, one could feel a faint sword aura emanating from it, causing ones breathing to stagnant.

The mountain winds whistled. Not a tiny bit of green could be seen on the mountain peak. It was filled with grayish-white boulders.

This mountain peak was extremely famous in the Tian Yuan world, as it was home to the headquarters of the number one organization of the Tian Yuan world, the Martial Alliance.

There was only one extremely steep path up the mountain. It was as if it had been shaved off by swords or sabers. It reached up high into the sky. Just the slightest mistake would cause one to lose ones footing, with the result of ones body being smashed to pieces.

A typical warrior could feel the pressure coming from the peak just by looking at the mountain path. This inadvertently caused them to feel fear.

At this moment, on the long mountain path, two tiny figures were quickly scaling the mountain.

Amongst these two figures, one of them was a youth with a face covered in blood. The other one had a gaping huge hole in his chest, together with a ruthless and sinister expression that belonged to Shen Tu Nantian!

The two of them were the Yin specters that had the Blood Moon mark on them…

Chapter 490 — Climax! Reunion of both mother and daughter!

Nian Xiaomu:

From the look on Yu Yuehans face, it was obvious that he was going to continue with his naughty plans after she was done talking.

However, when she thought about everything that had happened over the past two days, Nian Xiaomu pursed her lips nervously.

First off, she reported the incident at the kindergarten to Yu Yuehan, but did not mention that Xiao Liuliu was called a bastard.

She only briefly described that Xiao Liuliu had a disagreement with a classmate, and she had pretended to be Xiao Liulius mother so that she could defend Xiao Liuliu.

Not daring to check the expression on Yu Yuehans face, Nian Xiaomu asked directly, Can I ask you where exactly Xiao Liuliu came from?

As soon as this question left her mouth, Nian Xiaomu could feel the arm on her waist tighten its hold around her. It was as if Yu Yuehan was trying to subdue his temper.

Suddenly, Nian Xiaomu felt a little afraid.

Could it be that she had forced herself on Yu Yuehan and coerced him to make a baby with her back then? freeebnovl.cm

After that, did she dump him and even abandon the child with him?

No way, no way!

Yu Yuehan was such a domineering and black-bellied man. It was more likely that he would be the one to force people to do things against their will.

How would it be possible for a woman to make him do something that he didnt want to do?

It was definitely not her fault

Since this was the case, what exactly had happened?

She could not remember anything now. Surely Yu Yuehan wouldnt have forgotten if he had done the deed with her before.

Well, I know that this concerns your privacy. If you are unwilling to talk about it, thats okay

I dont know, Yu Yuehan glanced over at her as he answered in a very cold tone.

His entire presence was filled with gloom and fury.

Puzzled by his reaction, Nian Xiaomu wondered if he was angry that Xiao Liuliu had been bullied or angry with her for asking that question.

Furthermore, what did he mean when he said that he did not know?

Did he not know how his daughter came about?

Nian Xiaomu bit the tip of her tongue as she asked, Surely you would know which woman you had slept with?

Her voice was muffled, and it was impossible to make out what she was saying.

Yu Yuehan frowned and asked, What did you say?

I said, Nian Xiaomu puffed up her cheeks and raised her voice a notch louder, dont you know which woman you had slept with before?

The dining room suddenly plunged into silence.

A few servants who had stepped out of the kitchen heard their conversation and quickly retreated into the kitchen while pretending that they had not heard anything.

This was seriously an eye-opening experience for them.

They had been working at the Yu Family villa for many years, but had never seen any woman who dared to interrogate Yu Yuehan like this.

Furthermore, this question How was he supposed to answer this question?

Awkward! Too awkward!

As soon as Nian Xiaomu let out that low roar, she realized what a stupid thing she had done and covered her face with her hands silently.

Although it was a well-known fact that Yu Yuehan did not go near women, who knew if this was only a facade?

He was of such distinguished status and looked so strikingly handsome. The number of women who liked him could easily line the streets.

Even if he sat still and did not move, there would be hordes of women throwing themselves at him.

Surely it was impossible for him to not have had a single woman in all those years.

If he actually listed all of them out, she might

As Nian Xiaomu conjured up all these thoughts in her head, her chin was held and lifted up, and she was met with Yu Yuehans dark gaze. Suddenly, she decided that she did not want to hear his answer anymore.

Wait a second

Dont you know best who I have slept with before? Yu Yuehan pinched her chin a little harder as he enunciated every word.

Nian Xiaomu: !!

His words meant that

How could she really be the only one he had ever slept with?

Impossible! If thats the case, how did Xiao Liuliu end up in my belly

Chapter 552- Business Saint

Chapter 552- Business Saint

ryangohsf

Nora

When he really saw Xi Shi, Ouyang Shuo sort of felt like his fantasy was destroyed.

When Fan Li started his seclusion, he was already a white-haired old man. With just a little bit of thought, one could guess that Xi Shi, who had stayed by his side, would have already lost her past beauty. Her glamor and looks would not be able to escape the passage of time.

As time went on, only a merciful and quiet look was left.

Now, one could only see a slight glimpse of her past beauty from her current gentle expression.

Although the couple did not have their youthful looks anymore, one could not help but feel envious when they looked at the two of them.

This was really the definition of growing old together.

After the courteous greetings, Fan Li and Xi Shi officially moved into Shanhai City.

Greetings, my Lord!

Fan Li bowed toward Ouyang Shuo, confirming their Lord and servant relationship. Ouyang Shuo accepted his bow and took a look at his stats.

Name: Fan Li

Title: Business Saint

Dynasty: Spring and Autumn

Identity: Shanhai City Civil Servant

Occupation: Special rank merchant

Loyalty: 70

Command: 85

Force: 45

Intelligence: 98

Politics: 95

Specialty: A Rich World

Book: Fan Li Two Scrolls

Evaluation: Known as Fan Li in the Yue Country, Chiyi Zipi in the Qi Country, and Tao Zhugong in the Wu Country. Loyal to his country, his intelligence allowed him to survive. He ran his business to acquire wealth, and gained fame throughout the land. In the end, he passed down his wealth and success to his future generation.

As expected from the Business Saint, his stats were solid. Not only was his intelligence and politics stat close to the maximum, but even his command stat reached 85. He was indeed an all rounded talent.

Especially his specialty, which could actually raise the tax returns of the territory. Such a matter was something unheard of.

That aspect alone was worth one hundred thousand gold.

Since he was checking stats, Ouyang Shuo also took a look at Xi Shis stats.

Name: Xi Shi

Title: The Head of the Four Olden Beauties of China

Dynasty: Spring and Autumn

Identity: Shanhai City resident

Occupation: imperial court dancer

Bone structure: 20

Comprehension: 15

Charm: 25 reeebnvel-com

Luck: 8

Specialty: Washing Yarn

Evaluation: Born in Zhulo Village, as she stayed in the west of the village, she was called Xi Shi, also known as Yi Guang. Her looks were like that of a fairy. If she was a little fatter, one would think that she was too fat, and if she was a little thinner, one would say that she was too thin. She was the top beauty in olden times.

Similar to the ten famous generals in China, the four beauties were also defined as god ranked historical figures.

However, in contrast to officials and generals, her stats were similar to the stats of players, with 20 as their maximum.

However, her charm had actually broken through the max and reached a stunning 25 points. As such, one could see how beautiful she was. Regretfully, her luck stat was only 8 points, so one could see how unlucky she was in life.

A beauty always has a tough life, this was always the case.

Legends has it that after the Wu Country fell, Xi Shi was drowned in the river, showing how sad and unlucky her life was.

In the game, Gaia chose to use their love story as a blueprint, helping to rewrite a new legend for the top beauty of China.

Her specialty was one that should not be overlooked. Apart from the usual raising of efficiency and production, it actually helped to raise the reputation of the territory.

This point was quite rare among historical people specialties.

Ouyang Shuo guessed that this matter had to do with her charm and her title as the top beauty in China.

This husband and wife duo were truly living legends of their time.

Ouyang Shuo guessed that the news of Bai Gui moving into the business college had spread to his ears. Otherwise, Fan Li would not have accepted his proposal so quickly.

No matter what, he was the first Saint rank person to willing to take up a position in Shanhai City.

Xi Shi, on the other hand, did not speak a single word from start to finish.

And the moment that the two of them moved in, Ouyang Shuo received a system notification.

System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi, Xi Shi has moved into Shanhai City, activating B rank storyline quest Four Beauties. Will you accept the storyline quest?

Quest Name: Four Beauties

Quest Background: the four beauties of olden China are Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Diao Chan, and Yang Yuhuan, they were given the title of a beauty that caused fish to sink down and geese to fall, the moon hides her face at her beauty, and the flowers feel ashamed about their appearance.

Quest Requirements: Obtain the recognition of at least three of the beauties, having them move in to live in Shanhai City.

Completion Time: Within three years

Quest Reward: Territory will obtain the title of Capital of Charm. At the same time, the Lord will be awarded with 8 charm stat points.

The difficulty of obtaining the recognition of three of the four beauties within three years was no less than the philosopher quest. His low luck and charm stat were truly becoming the bane of his existence.

Calculating the time, after the next battle ended, West Han would enter the game proceedings. At that time, Wang Zhaojun would also appear.

After that would be Diao Chan of East Han then Yang Yuhuan of Tang Dynasty. If everything went smoothly, there was indeed a chance of completing this quest in three years.

Long before Fan Li arrived, Ouyang Shuo had already planned his role.

Ouyang Shuo wanted him to replace Cui Yingyu as the Finance Director. As for Cui Yingyu, she would become the deputy director and the secretary of Industry Division.

In history, be it in terms of being an official or being a merchant, Fan Li had obtained excellent results. Be it his planning or his foresight, both aspects made him an excellent choice for the position.

Hence, he was definitely the best choice for the position of Finance Director.

As the territory expanded, it was becoming more and more difficult to keep Cui Yingyu at her position. The negative opinions of her in the territory, especially within Shanhai City, had not ceased at all.

As such, for her to take a step back was not a bad idea at all. In fact, it would help her instead.

Of course, before he appointed Fan Li, Ouyang Shuo needed to discuss this matter with this sister of his.

The location of choice was not the reading room but the back garden. His intentions were obvious, this was a conversation between siblings and not a Lord talking to his vassal.

Глава 128 : 投其所好

说完，她不紧不慢地转身就走，步伐异常坚定，背影非常决绝。

冷管家也同样没有想到，苏落竟然会走，而且她说走就走，干脆利落，没有一丝的拖泥带水。

一时间，他有些愣住了。来求医的哪一个不是卑躬屈膝战战兢兢的，这臭丫头竟然如此不识好歹！

冷管家阴沉着脸，朝苏落冷笑，大声威胁道：“只要出了这个门，你就别奢望我家主人会再出手医治！你可想好了！”

这样的威胁，百试百灵。

但是这一次，却例外了。

只见苏落身形顿了顿，回眸朝他展颜一笑，笑容妩媚动人：“冷管家，很期待与你再次相见。”

话音刚落，苏落神色淡淡地转身坚定往外而去。

其实徐管家非常想一把将苏落揪住，拎着她去见冷药师，但是不知为何，这样平静无波的苏落，竟然给他一种强烈的威慑感，让他有种臣服，不敢反抗的敬畏。

冷管家冷哼一声，暗骂了一句：“不识好歹的臭丫头，有种出了这门就别哭着求着进来。”

骂完后，他一边往炼药房而去，一边思索着如何在主人面前狠狠告那臭丫头一状。

苏落走出门口，见徐管家欲言又止的模样，她笑了笑，“行了，别紧张，我们就在这等冷药师。”

等冷药师？亏苏姑娘说的出来。冷药师是谁相见，相见就能见的吗？更何况还要他亲自出来？

据说冷药师已经十年不曾踏出这片庄园半步了，好不好？徐管家很想朝苏落咆哮，但是看着她那娇滴滴的样子，他又实在不忍心。

好不容易得来的机会就这样被浪费掉了！徐管家气呼呼地别过脸去。

苏落唇边勾起轻浅的弧度，眼底闪过一丝笑意。

她心中是极有把握的。

既然高傲的冷管家能亲自出面来请她，那么，就足以证明那张《生肌丹方》已经落到冷药师手中了。

既然那半张上古丹方已经落到冷药师手中，以冷药师的眼光，她又何必再担忧对方不识货呢？

现如今是卖方市场，她苏落才是老大，任凭他冷药师如何蛮横，又能拿她如何？还不是得来求她？

苏落嘴角勾起一抹残酷而冰冷的笑意，她很期待冷管家即将面对的暴风雨呢。

却说冷管家被苏落拒绝后，大步走向炼丹房，然而还没等他敲门求见，那扇永远闭合的门扉却猛然打开，门口是一张急促而焦灼的脸。

这是一位大约四五十岁的中年男人。只见他身形清瘦，头发眉毛乱糟糟的，不修边幅的样子，身上的白色衣袍也是脏污的东一块西一块，看起来有些狼狈。

不等冷药师开口，冷管家就先告上状了：“主人，那臭丫头太不识好歹，小的奉您的命令去请，谁知她竟然站起来转身就走！真真是可恶至极！”

冷药师眼眸闪过一丝厉色，一把揪住冷管家的衣领，咬牙切齿：“你说什么！”

冷管家以为冷药师因为自尊受到挑衅所以怒气值满溢，便大着胆子无中生有告黑状：“那臭丫头还说，还说您没什么了不起的，不见也罢，简直没将您放在眼底！”

Chapter 529 — Break!

Abyssruler Lucas

Everybodys eyes were popping out. Many had been in the Disciple level for a long time. Although the Knife Mountain trial was only held once per week, but they had seen it often enough. Yet, nobody had crossed 80m!

As the wave of fire blasted to the skies, the entire trial arena transformed. Everybody could feel the dense wave of heat. This type of environmental change would definitely affect ones performance.

Whoosh…

Wang Zheng immediately stepped forward. More accurately, he had not even paused. A lightning quick response time!

Everybodys hearts were in their throats. Would he fall into the magma and be incinerated, or would he…

Stabilize!

They had not even processed matters, and Wang Zheng was already continuing. The change had happened in about half a second, and was actually not too bad. Such a trials demands of martial art standards was not high. The most important was to regulate output and a stable manner. Emotional fluctuation could severely affect ones arts. In such an environment, the smallest flinch would see a quick end.

But compared to some small thing like magma, Bonehead seemed way crueler!

When Wang Zheng rushed for the second knife tip, it suddenly disappeared. This was asking for his life!

The speedy Wang Zheng paused briefly in mid-air, as though floating. When the knife tip reappeared, he treaded lightly, whoosh…

Such a display of arts was already at the pinnacle. Mouton was clear that even if he had made it to 80m, the sudden change along would have caused him to falter at the first step.

This was impossible. Could this guy be from the higher levels?

Impossible. Those from a higher level could not participate in the trials of a lower level. This…

Mouton looked at the stone plaque. The name on top was… still Mu!

Wang Zhengs expression was still serene. This meant he was serious. For such a trial, it was fruitless to practice it for a million times. Each time required the same amount of focus. The slightest lag would cost ones life. Boneheads training required not for one to win, but to make no mistakes.

And just as he said, each failure saw Wang Zheng suffer horribly.

But, besides to Bonehead, Wang Zheng would definitely uphold his reputation to outsiders!

The 10m that was a matter of life and death had been passed in a flash. He was past 80m…

Was he still continuing?

Bubble bubble…

The magma suddenly became even more vigorous, waves of fire splurting beside Wang Zheng. This was completely unavoidable, and Wang Zheng took magma over his body. Those parts turned charred in an instant.

At this time, the slightest interruption would have seen anybody fall. Moutons face was whiter than a sheet.

It was normal for humans to feel pain, and pain inevitably affected ones focus. This environment was indescribable.

But just like that, that black-metal-masked punk was actually still advancing, as though he felt no pain.

Nobody noticed that Wang Zheng was actually smiling to himself. Suddenly, things had turned interesting.

88m.

Could he actually break 90m???

Everybody only had eyes for the waves of magma. Although Moutons body was still present, his soul had already left.

Only Tree suddenly noticed the stone plaque. On it, Mus name was disappearing, and a new name emerged.

90m!

The bubbling magma suddenly quietened, but… F*ck, why wasnt there a single knife tip left?

He was still calmly surveying his surroundings, just as back in the days with Bonehead, but he saw not even a single way to proceed. If his martial arts were strong enough, he could force a super-far jump into the air, but fuck, this was only a Basic Point Blade Technique.

Plomp!

Assuming the coolest pose he could, Wang Zheng dropped into the lava.

Vaporized into ash, he reappeared in the trial hall.

His limbs were all intact, and the burns had all been healed. This was much more humane than Bonehead, who had often allowed the pain to continue for a time after each failure, in order to aid his memory.

Wang Zhengs inventory of time had grown by 200 hours, and a 16 Point martial art Icy Soul Arts!

Not a bad haul, he had not wasted his money.

The whole hall was quietly watching the man in the black metal mask. That black metal mask did not reveal much, which made him seem cooler. But the sharp look in the eyes seemed to be taunting the world.

Uncomfortable under all the stares, and seeing the trial was over, Wang Zheng beat it promptly.

Nobody made a sound throughout the entire ordeal. Tree came to with a jerk, and quickly followed.

When the two had disappeared from the trial grounds, the entire trial hall erupted.

The Saint Mus trial record had actually been broken!

Furthermore, it was by a Basic Point Blade Technique! Who on earth was this cool customer Charcoal?

A man or a monster?

In the din of the hall, nobody paid any attention to Mouton anymore, for the first time. After a good while, he stood up. He knew that this person must be an expert in the real world as well.

Real world ability would unquestionably influence strength in Saint. Although he had just come in, but that composure and decision making spoke of something darker in him, perhaps even a top-class Milky Way assassin.

A chilling air of murder had hung about him.

Meanwhile Wang Zheng, oblivious to these assassin speculations, was happily checking through his spoils. He needed to earn a lot of money, so he could properly treat Aina and Lin Huiyin when they met.

Martial arts could not be sold, but even if he did not use it, he could give it to Yan Xiaosu and the others. It seemed like a waste. Yan Xiaosus ambitions lay elsewhere, and it would be wrong to force him. But Meng Tian, Zhang Shan… they were a different story.

Tree looked quietly at Wang Zheng. Brother Charcoal, youre amazing. You even broke Mus record. You really turned all heads back there.

Wang Zheng made some unintelligible response. What was this Mu, and all this mummery? None of it was his concern. All he cared about was one thing.

Perhaps sensing Wang Zhengs indifference, Tree could only force a laugh. Brother Charcoal, I have things to do. Ill leave first. Thanks again for saving me.

Oh dont worry about it. You brought me good luck. Here, lets add each other as friends. If somebody bullies you next time, Ill help you beat him up. Wang Zheng said easily. Keeping an eye on the big picture was important, but the details should not be neglected as well.

Tree really did not know what to say. Experts were not uncommon in Saint, but to have ability at this level, and to be so… It was really a rare sight.

Wang Zheng headed for the training room. He wanted to try out the Icy Soul Arts. His first awakened ability X was of the ice type. Perhaps when stimulated with a similar art, there might be some interesting results.

But after just half an hour, Wang Zheng gave up. The Icy Soul Arts did not have much of a result.

This was related to his body affinities. Primordial Regression Technique belonged to the 5 affinities circulation, but the Icy Soul Arts were clearly leaning towards the Water affinity. This was not complementary to Wang Zhengs balanced power, and he could not hold it well.

Although the 8 Point Blade Techniques were very basic, they were the foundational arts of the 5 affinities.

Wang Zheng was not disappointed. At least he had achieved some general understanding of its use. Actually, specific-affinity arts could lead to a loss of balance for those like Wang Zheng. It could warp ones affinity, and might even lead to an even stronger resultant ability X.

The two different systems might produce fantastic results. This would probably be very helpful to Meng Tian.

Although not being able to bring the martial arts out heavily discounted its use, but as long as one honed the martial arts that suited ones own affinity, even if it could not be brought out, ones ability X would continue to improve. The world of Saint could not completely inhibit such changes, and this was the reason why many continued to stay.

Wang Zheng thought that he should seek out Meng Tian first of all. fгeeebove.cm

Chapter 541: Desolate Queen

Chapter 541: Desolate Queen

PhewPhew

Strong winds blew while the red clouds tumbled in various directions wantonly. In the red clouds, Jiang Xiaorous body was slowly being lifted up. Her hair and clothes began to flutter.

There was such a vast amount of Power of Desolates between Heaven and Earth that throbbed intensely were like a heartbeat. They resonated with the blood within all of the desolate beasts that were present.

Some desolate beasts raised their heads and looked at the beautiful girl soaked in the red sea in the sky. At this moment, the slender lass was like the center of the world.

Slowly, numerous blood strands began to emanate towards Jiang Xiaorou inside the tumbling red clouds.

The growls of uncountable numbers of ancient desolate beasts seemed to be mixed in with the heavy howling wind.

The cold killing intent that inundated the skies made Jiang Xiaorou recall the day at the Chu Prefecture City. When her bloodline and identity was revealed, that mild-mannered man had suddenly turned ferocious like a beast. The killing intent he manifested was suffocating.

And facing that enemy, with no hopes of beating him, Yi Yun still resisted while risking his life. He had put down his pride, but anything he did was completely meaningless…

Boom!

As the red clouds sudden moved, Jiang Xiaorou stretched her arms out flat. She immersed herself in the energetic baptism. Her body seemed to be the connection point between the energies of Heavens and Earth.

The red clouds were tumbling around her, while the blood strands gathered around her, forming into a blood red Totem.

Swirls, flitting.

Jiang Xiaorou began to spin above the divine bone altar, in the middle of Heavens and Earth.

The Totems increased in number as they covered Jiang Xiaorous body. They looked fanciful and pretty.

Her cheeks were filled with complex patterns. They looked like tattoos as they emitted a faint, red glow under her snow-like skin.

Jiang Xiaorou closed her eyes as she buried her memories deep into her heart. When she opened her eyes again, there seemed to be lightning discharging from her gaze.

Pa! Pa!

Jiang Xiaorou began to tap into the empty air with the bone cane. Every tap caused thunder to resound in the red clouds.

Her blood began to boil at this moment. The power of her Qi and blood now merged with the power of Heaven and Earth!

Boom!

The red clouds dispersed out in all directions.

The violent winds abruptly came to a halt. The Power of Desolates sea also ceased its actions. Everything seemed to quiet down, revealing a deep blue sky.

All the desolate beasts held their breaths as they were prostrated on the ground. There were even desolate beasts who were gently trembling.

In the vast sky, behind the girl who seemed to be standing on the top of a cloud, a pair of giant eyes quietly appeared.

This pair of eyes seemed like a window that had suddenly opened in the sky. They were thin and long, but red. They seemed to have an air of indifference as they projected from the sky.

The Totem lines on Jiang Xiaorous body became even brighter. She slightly raised her beautiful head and her original pair of bright black eyes suddenly turned red in color as well, resembling the heartless red eyes behind her!

Jiang Xiaorou indifferently swept her eyes forward. The desolate beasts that met her gaze showed fear as they lowered their heads to the ground.

Numerous desolate beasts prostrated themselves before Jiang Xiaorou as well as that pair of gigantic eyes behind her!

Sacred Spirit!

Seeing the gigantic eyes in the sky, the unsurpassed beauty of a generation far off in the distance was relieved.

Jiang Xiaorou had not only awakened her ancient bloodline, she had even made the Sacred Spirits phantom image appear. It was equivalent to receiving the recognition of the Sacred Spirit!

Her daughter had not disappointed her, but… Had she disappointed her daughter instead?

The beauty shook her head gently. The gaze she used to look at Jiang Xiaorou was filled with both love and guilt.

High in the sky, Jiang Xiaorou was silent. She held the bone cane in hand, while behind her, the pair of gigantic eyes began to slowly reveal its entire bodily form.

It was a colossal head. It covered almost all of the space between the Heavens and Earth. Just the head alone was taller than the highest mountains in the Divine Wilderness!

The Sacred Spirits phantom image turned clear, one could now see its nose, mouth and sharp teeth.

Its main body was that of a gigantic fox. Its body was covered in fiery-red fur. Every strand of fur was like a towering divine tree. гeewebnovlcom

Behind it, in the endless sky, six tails which resembled red dragons were waving about. These six tails were like divine fires that screamed upwards into the sky. The other end of the tails seemed to be located somewhere even higher than the skies.

The Sacred Spirit slowly lowered its head in front of Jiang Xiaorou.

Jiang Xiaorous body flew higher and higher until she reached the Sacred Spirits forehead. She then landed gently in the middle of the Sacred Spirits eyebrows.

At the blood fox Sacred Spirits forehead, there were three cinnabar dots that were identical to Jiang Xiaorous. They excluded a mysterious and ancient aura…

At that moment, Jiang Xiaorou, who stood on the top of the Sacred Spirits head, was worshipped by the billions of desolate beasts present. She had now obtained the recognition of the desolate beasts completely and had become the new Desolate Queen of this generation!

…

While this grand ritual was happening in the Divine Wilderness, outside the Great Empress mystic realm, the geniuses that had been trapped in the mystic realm for about a year had finally come out.

The Elders of the large factions had longed for this day until their eyes protruded and their necks stretched out long.

They had waited for this very moment!

It was not easy. The wait first ended with a pile of corpses, then two living zombies. Finally, our wait has been rewarded with living people.

That is right, the trials have finally ended!

It has been about a year. I wonder what opportunities these juniors have obtained.

While many were full of anticipation, Shen Tu Jues face was sullen.

With everyone out, he could finally figure out how Shen Tu Nantian had died.

Who was the person that had the guts and strength to kill all of the Shen Tu family clans members?

Shen Tu Jue wanted to know the cause behind Shen Tu Nantians death, while the upper echelons of the other factions were also asking about the opportunities obtained in the Great Empress mystic realm.

However, many juniors spoke hesitantly about these, as if they were hiding something.

The Elders present were all very knowledgeable people. As expected by Yi Yun, they quickly discovered that their juniors had signed a soul contract.

What? What kind of person has the power to force so many of you to sign a soul contract?

Were there other hidden players in this expedition to the Great Empress mystic realm?

The Elders present began to discuss as Shen Tu Jue coldly grunted and said, It is understandable! An enemy that can completely wipe out my Shen Tu family clan cannot be a junior that entered the mystic realm to participate in the trials. There must be some other existence. It looks like there were a lot of unexpected circumstances in the Great Empress mystic realm trials!

Especially the Lin family. They are furtive in their actions. Up to now, not a single one of them has appeared. It is very likely that they were involved in the plot to murder the elites of my Shen Tu family clan. Maybe they sneakily attacked my Shen Tu family clan disciples when they were injured, striking them while they were down!

Shen Tu Jue gnashed his teeth. And at this moment, a few juniors had their soul contracts removed. Removing soul contracts on people below the Dao Seed realm was nothing difficult for Empyreal King experts.

That… That…

A few juniors looked at Shen Tu Jue. They felt fear facing the killing intent exuding from the elders body.

Tell me, how did my Shen Tu family clans disciples die? Shen Tu Jues voice was crisp. The sound waves entered straight into the ear. More than half a year ago, a gigantic eye appeared in the eternal whirlpool. Did you discover any strange phenomenon in the mystic realm that may have something to do with this? Was the death of Shen Tu Nantian and Shen Tu Ya a result of the appearance of this eye?

An eye in the eternal whirlpool?

A few juniors looked each other in the eye and were at a loss, More than half a year ago, we were in the God Advent Tower. We did not notice any phenomenon like an eye. As for Shen Tu Nantians death…

A junior gulped a mouthful of saliva and said very carefully, He was killed by Yi Yun… Yi Yun shot an arrow and slashed twice with a sword. Then, Shen Tu Nantian died…

Also, the other Shen Tu family clan disciples were also shot to death by Yi Yun, with an arrow each…

Oh yes, Shen Tu Ya was not killed by Yi Yun. He tried to sneak up while Yi Yun and Shen Tu Nantian were battling, but he was then slashed by Lin Xintong who was guarding him by the side… There were many people who participated in this sneak attack. It included the Li Fire Sect as well as the Hong Association. They too were slashed by Lin Xintong.

Upon saying this, the juniors suddenly saw Shen Tu Jues flesh twitch. The blood vessels on his forehead were raised and his eyeballs were protruding. It was a very frightening look.

Besides Shen Tu Jue, the other Elders of the other family clans were dumbfounded when they heard this.

There were more and more juniors who had the soul contract removed. However, no one objected to what was said. Clearly, the sequence of events did not veer too far off from what they said!

All the cultivators, including Shen Tu Nantian, had been killed by Yi Yun and Lin Xintong? What the hell was going on?

What did you say!?

Shen Tu Jue roared as his eyes turned bloodshot!

A few juniors jumped up in fright. Against Shen Tu Jue, the pressure they experienced was too great. They hurriedly said, What we said is the truth. Shen Tu Nantian was slashed to death by Yi Yun. The others were shot to death by Yi Yun. He shot those arrows at once. They were all dead in the blink of an eye. As for the specifics we did not see it clearly. If you want to know the details about how the Shen Tu family clan disciples died, you can ask the Dao Seed realm cultivators, they should have been able to see it clearer than us.

The few juniors hurriedly distanced themselves from the topic. At this moment, Shen Tu Jues expression was completely distorted. His face kept twitching.

After asking several cultivators, he received the exact same answer.

Shen Tu Nantian and company had really all been killed by Yi Yun and Lin Xintong! People from the Li Fire Sect and the Hong Association found it hard to believe.

However, the facts were placed before them. They could only choose to believe it.

Impossible! It must be that the little bastard, Yi Yun, and that little slut, Lin Xintong, colluded with someone behind the scenes! They sneaked up on Tianer and company and hurt them in the guise of someone else!

By the time Shen Tu Jue and company had accepted the facts, Thousand Hand Granny screamed. She found it impossible to believe that Shen Tu Nantian, to whom she had attached such great importance, could be killed by a young Yi Yun who had come from the Backwater Easts Cloud Wilderness. This was an insult to Shen Tu Nantian!

At this moment, the warrior with the surname Xue, who had been the one to negotiate with Yi Yun about signing the soul contract, rolled his eyes at Thousand Hand Granny. He lightly said, Granny, you really are overthinking it.Back then, we were all present. Everyone saw it. There was no one behind the scenes. As for sneak attacks, there was one. Unfortunately, those who tried to sneak attacked were not Yi Yun and Lin Xintong, but Shen Tu Ya and company…

This… This…

The Thousand Hand Granny retreated a few steps in a powerless manner. She seemed to have lost her wits. The scene of the tragic look on the dead Shen Tu Nantians face once again appeared before her eyes.

In the past, she had always believed that Yi Yun had used insidious means, which allowed him to entrap Shen Tu Nantian at the relic trial.

This time however, in the Great Empress mystic realm, Tianer, who had made the adequate preparations to kill Yi Yun, had instead been killed by Yi Yun with his true strengths?

Why was this happening!?

Chapter 489 — Climax! Reunion of both mother and daughter!

Nian Xiaomu could hardly hold it in any longer, and just as she was about to ask him, Yu Yuehan suddenly let go of her hand.

Pulling out the chair next to her, he sat down in it.

His gorgeous face tilted to the side as he watched her touch the cake. Raising his eyebrow, he asked, You dont like it?

I like it. Nian Xiaomu hurriedly opened up the packaging, picked up a spoon, and fed herself a mouthful of cake.

In her mind, she could not stop wondering if Yu Yuehan had overheard her conversation with Xiao Liuliu just now.

Even if he did not hear the first part, he must have heard Xiao Liuliu call her Pretty Mommy.

By now, he should have brought it up.

However, looking at his current expression, it seemed like it did not matter to him at all.

Instead, the person who was feeling internally conflicted was her.

To say or not to say

Yummy! Xiao Liuliu sat in her high chair, swiftly digging into her cake and feeding herself.

Her small exquisite face was filled with satisfaction.

As her big round eyes turned toward Yu Yuehan, she scooped up a piece of cake with her tiny spoon and reached out toward him, cooing, For Daddi to eat!

Yu Yuehan didnt seem like the kind of person who liked cake. Nian Xiaomu was curious to see if he would eat it anyway because he doted on his daughter so much.

At the next second, however, she heard his calm voice say, No, its fine. You eat it. Daddy will eat your Pretty Mommys cake.

Nian Xiaomu: !!

That was right. Even if she were to lie low, he would surely not let her off!

Since Nian Xiaomu could not enjoy her cake, she casually scooped some up and asked, Where did you go today? You came back so late and didnt answer my calls earlier.

At first, she was only asking for fun.

However, when these questions came out of her mouth, her heart became very keen to hear his answers.

Yu Yuehan had appeared to be very busy these past two days.

He would leave the house early in the morning and only return late at night. Although they lived in the same house, it was extremely difficult to see him.

Yu Yuehan took a bite of the cake that Nian Xiaomu delivered to his mouth, and before he let go of the fork, he answered coolly, Did you miss me?

His voice was lower than usual and strangely alluring.

Not at all! Nian Xiaomu turned to look away and continued eating her cake. She was determined not to expose her real feelings and maintained a calm expression on her face.

So you were checking on my whereabouts. Yu Yuehan narrowed his eyes as he offered an explanation for her.

Ahem!

Choking on her cake, Nian Xiaomu clumsily picked up her cup and gulped down some water.

Yu Yuehan, Im the one asking you the questions now!

Mmm. The sides of his mouth curled up. Then do you admit that you were checking on my whereabouts?

Nian Xiaomu:

It was impossible to have a proper conversation with this man!

Once Xiao Liuliu was done eating, Yu Yuehan sent her off to play with the butler in the living room.

There were now only the two of them in the dining room.

In her nervousness, Nian Xiaomus fork grazed the corner of her lips.

Reaching out for a piece of tissue paper, her wrist was gripped by a big hand.

No need for the trouble. Yu Yuehan leaned forward and swept his tongue past her lips.

While the cream was being licked clean, Nian Xiaomu fell into a daze and sat blankly in her seat.

Yu Yuehan used this chance to pull her into his arms and slipped his hands under her blouse, caressing her waist as he asked in a sexy voice, Honestly, did you miss me?

Miss what about you?

Pooh! fгeewbnoelcm

When Nian Xiaomu realized that she had learned to think cheeky thoughts from Yu Yuehan, she quickly pressed down on his hands.

Theres really something that I want to talk to you about!

Hearing this, Yu Yuehan recalled that when he was about to leave the house this morning, she had said that there was something she wanted to tell him.

However, he wasnt able to stay and listen to her.

He rested his hand on her waist and said, Say it then.

Глава 127 : 投其所好

苏落选定这张《生肌丹方》，记下上面的文字后，便退出空间回到现实中。

因为她只是灵魂进入，所以哪怕是当着所有人的面，也没人看出其中的破绽。

苏落手执狼毫笔，在澄心堂纸上挥洒自如，写到三分之一的时候，她嘴角扬起一抹奸诈狡黠的笑容。

她收住笔，拿起那张墨迹未干的澄心堂纸，对着它吹了几口气，很快便将墨迹吹干了。

苏落叫住一位路过的小厮，不容置喙道：“将这个给你们冷药师送去。”

小厮皱眉。

平常也总有客人想面见冷药师，会暗中将名帖通过他们这些下人传递给冷药师，但是据他所知，这些人从未成功过，而且这其中还要担很大的风险。

所以那位小厮想也不想便拒绝了。

苏落却笑得神秘莫测，“别急着拒绝啊，你可知道，你这一辈子的飞黄腾达可就落在这上面了。”说这话的同时，苏落塞到小厮衣袖中的还有一块重重的银锭子。

糖衣炮弹，不论古今都适用。

小厮也算胆大，他想也想便点头，掩住衣袖快步离去。

看着他离去时的背影，苏落笑得有些不怀好意。

在这一过程当中，徐管家一直都疑惑不解地看着苏落，直到此时，他才狐疑地询问：“苏姑娘，你就这么有把握？”

那纸上究竟写了什么？徐管家很是好奇。

苏落泰然自若地端起茶杯，浅浅饮了一口，搁下后，眼波微垂，嘴角扯起一抹弧度，笑道：“不是我有把握，而是那张丹方有把握。徐管家可知道，冷药师最中意的宝贝是什么吗？”

徐管家一本正经地说：“这不难猜，肯定是上古丹方了。”但凡是炼药师，没有一个不对上古丹方有着强烈的渴求。

只是，上古丹方毕竟已经在大陆上遗失，就算不曾遗失的那部分，也都掌握在世家或隐世大族手中，普通的炼药师手中几乎是没有的。

苏落抿唇而笑，笑得高深莫测。

正在徐管家犹疑不定之际，忽然，外面传来一道急促的脚步声，之后，厢房的门被急速推开。

来的不是别人，正是之前各种瞧苏落不顺眼的冷管家。

只见他阴沉着一张脸，高傲又挑剔地扫了苏落一眼，居高临下问：“你可是呈了一张纸条给我家主人？”

苏落目光淡定，雪肤冰肌神色疏离，她抬眸扫向他，不否认，也不承认。

冷管家冷笑地阴森莫测：“没想到你这丫头竟然还有这样的心计，告诉你，你很幸运，我家主人已经答应见你了，跟我走吧！”

冷管家对苏落的态度是不屑外加鄙夷的。

此刻的他犹如纡尊降贵般，施舍般对待苏落。

徐管家虽然生气冷管家的态度，但是知道冷药师答应要见苏落后，他眼角眉梢都是喜色，因为这代表着冷药师极有可能会亲自出手相救。

然而，苏落的表现却让他大跌眼镜。

只见苏落面上无波，冰色琉璃般的美眸漠然地看了冷管家一眼，转身朝徐管家淡然道：“我们来了已经有些时候了，也不知道家中病人如何了，我们先回去看看吧。”

Chapter 551- Four Beauties

Chapter 551- Four Beauties

Nora

Apart from monetary support, to go along No.7 Research Institutes industrial plan, he also needed to make some arrangements with the Nanjiang Governor-General House structure.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to wait till after the new year to gather the officials for a discussion regarding this point. After all, it was time for them to renew the current Governor-General House.

After receiving Ouyang Shuos promise, Liu Mo and the others were naturally delighted.

At least I didnt waste a pot of good tea! someone grumbled secretly.

….

Before leaving the research institute, Ouyang Shuo gave Liu Mo a requirement to meet. He wanted the No.7 Research Institute to work together with the Beihai Shipyard to modify the Dragon Head and add cannons to it.

Liu Mo and the others wanted to build up the industrial system. One of the reasons for this desire was their firearm research and crafting process. However, to achieve that goal, they still needed a period of time.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo wanted them to equip some old style cannons on the warship.

If one talked about the Dragon Head, Ouyang Shuo had only boarded it a few times when he explored Qiongzhou Island. As for the others times, it was just docked at Beihai Harbor.

It was Old Sun who treated the Dragon Head like his old lover. Every time he had any new ideas, he would test it out on the Dragon Head, treating it as a total guinea pig.

The current Dragon Head was entirely different from before.

Now, however, Ouyang Shuo suddenly wanted to modify the ship that he had shown no concern for previously.

No matter how one looked at it, it was unusual.

Why do I think you have other intentions?

Liu Mo took a look at Ouyang Shuo and said with uncertainty.

Ouyang Shuo smiled and did not say anything.

Are you thinking about going out to sea? Liu Mo was a busybody.

Ouyang Shuo did not care about him and just left.

Just treat it like a normal matter! Before leaving, Ouyang Shuo was still worried, so he threw down a sentence.

Dont worry!

Liu Mo returned to his workplace, he was still a little depressed about not obtaining any rumors or news from Ouyang Shuo.

Who said that research personnel did not care about gossips.

They only appeared quiet to the outside world.

After leaving the research institute, Ouyang Shuo did not go anywhere else. Instead, he simply returned to the Governor-General Manor where he accompanied Binger as she studied.

It was the 12th month, and the virtual school was not on holidays yet.

In the afternoon, it was the time for Binger to learn about ancient Chinese civilizations, no matter how much she hated it and did not want to.

Out of the four types of musical instruments, chess, books, and calligraphy, the little brat only liked calligraphy.

She did not have the slightest interest toward playing instruments or chess. Ouyang Shuo dissed her for not having any cultural genes.

One had to mention that her talent in calligraphy was exceedingly strong.

In just three months, her writing already possessed some standard.

In his last life, Ouyang Shuo had spent five years in the game, writing five years of brush writing. Although he could not be considered really good, he still had a little knowledge regarding the matter.

This brother and sister pair each one wrote a line and were immersed in the front.

Brother, are you going to marry Sister Song Jia?

While writing, the little brat suddenly raised her head and popped this question.

Ouyang Shuo was stunned, and he placed down the brush in his hand and smiled, Thats right. Why, are you unhappy?

The two of them were simply too familiar with one another.

Any change in her tone would not be able to escape his ears.

A day ago, Ouyang Shuo had discussed with Song Jia about marriage matters.

This unexpected happiness had struck her down, and in a short while, the news had spread over the entire manor.

The entire Nanjiang Governor-General House had started to run and prepare for the marriage of the Lord. When the people of Shanhai City received the news, they were also delighted, and their joy was evident on their faces.

In just a day, the people sentiment rose by one point. Only then did Ouyang Shuo realize how important the marriage and the childbirth of the Lord was to the people.

This was a tough and personal question.

Under such a situation, Ouyang Shuo was not surprised that the smart and resourceful Binger obtained the news.

A little. Binger seemed a little crestfallen and really pitiful.

Why? Ouyang Shuo asked.

When Brother gets married, you wont be Bingers brother, and you wont dote on me anymore.

She grumbled, the way that she acted really made others uncontrollably adore her.

As she grew older, this little brat would not yearn for attention every day like before. She started to slowly grow independent, especially after training in the Wugou Heart Sutra.

Only at this moment did Ouyang Shuo realize that this little brat was still the little brat from before. Her reliance on her older brother had not changed a single bit.

Ouyang Shuo smiled, Who did you hear that from? What kind of weird theories are you talking about?

The sisters are all saying that. Binger was annoyed.

Silly girl.

Ouyang Shuo touched her little head.

If this was like last time, she would definitely feel unhappy, as she did not want her brother to treat her like a little kid. Only this time, she did not reject it.

Ouyang Shuo bent down to her eye level and said solemnly, When brother gets married, not only will I still love you like before, youll have the addition of a sister-in-law who loves you just as much. Didnt you know that?

Really? Binger was a little unsure.

Bo!

Ouyang Shuo flicked her head, Why? Now you dont even believe what brother says?

Ouch!

The little brat pressed her head, as she stared at her brother with annoyance. However, her eyes showed a trace of bliss and happiness.

Write your words properly, stop slacking. Ouyang Shuo got up.

Oh! Only then did the little brat started being honest.

Ouyang Shuo sighed in his heart, This little brat has grown up, thinking about so much.

At that moment, Ouyang Shuo really did not know what he should be feeling.

12th month, 20th day, Fan Li and his group entered Shanhai City.

The Black Guards from the Black Snake Guards had escorted him along the way. Apart from Fan Li, there was another famous person that followed him. She was one of the four beauties of olden China — Xi Shi.

Everyone knew that the four beauties of olden china were Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, Diao Chan, and Yang Yuhuan. They were given the title of a beauty that caused fish to sink down and geese to fall, the moon hides her face at her beauty, and the flowers feel ashamed about their appearance.

The sinking fish had to do with the story of Xi Shi washing yarn on the riverbed.

The falling geese described the story of Zhaojun leaving her home country.

The moon closing her eyes discussed the story of Diao Chan praying to the moon.

The ashamed flower talked about the story of Yang Yuhuan getting drunk while viewing flowers.

The beauties of legend had finally appeared in the wilderness for the first time, letting the ordinary people witness their beauty.

Xi Shi was a girl that washed yarn. She had distinct features, a peach-colored face, with an extraordinary appearance. When she was washing yarn by the river, the reflection of the clear water made her look a lot more beautiful. The fishes in the river felt that she was too pretty and sank down into the river, ashamed to show their faces.

This was how the story of the sunken fishes came about.

Chapter 528 — Holding with Ones Mouth

Abyssruler Lucas

So many people… Wang Zheng was left a little speechless.

But Tree was calm, smiling. Todays challenge is the Knife Mountain Trial, so naturally everybody wants to try. The only way for those of the Disciple Level to attain the 16 Point martial arts is to enter competitions. This is a reward for those with talent. Brother Charcoal, youre so strong, why not give it a try?

Wang Zheng nodded. Although there were many people, but immediately upon entry, it was really a mountain of knives that greeted them.

The so-called Knife Mountain Trial was to use the Blade Techniques to the limit, rushing through the training route in one go. It tested ones arts usage and breath control. One wrong breath could leave one as a meat skewer.

Not too many people would care about the time reward, but everyone wanted the martial arts. However, those that came to participate were fairly confident in their Techniques.

Beside the Knife Mountain Trial, there was a stone plaque, on which a name was carved Mu.

Trees eyes filled with reverence. Mu is a legend of this world. He has taken first place in virtually all the trials. Till date, many of his records stand, having never been beaten.

Besides getting their name carved, are there other benefits for having the best performance? Wang Zheng asked.

Tree was taken aback. Im sure there are. But thats impossible. Those that can be beaten have already been beaten. Those that remain are impossible. Mu is one of the 5 Great Saints of the Saint world. Even in the Saint level, hes an expert.

Wang Zheng rubbed his nose. Seemed like this guy was something.

Perhaps seeing Wang Zheng unconcerned, Tree hastened to add, In this world, the ones you must not offend are the Saints. Not only is their power unbelievable, but in the real world theyre also important people. Besides, they can all bring their power out into the real world.

Wang Zheng was unconcerned because it was none of his business. A bunch of trial participants had already rushed forward, and were now yelping pitifully.

The realism here was high, and they must be feeling some degree of pain. To Wang Zheng it was nothing more than a drizzle, but for others, it must be a whole different matter entirely.

Although the Knife Mountain route was very long, but any who passed 60m was deemed to have passed. Most were impaled by 30m.

Moving with just one breath required competency in ones control and usage of the Blade Techniques. Simply guts alone would not get one far.

Wang Zheng stared at the sharp knives. Honestly, it made ones blood run cold, and such a state of mind definitely affected performance as well.

In a way, such challenge trials did test a wide range of Techniques. Interesting.

The first batch of 20 plus people had been cut to shreds. Failure and death in the Saint world were penalized. Most did not care, but in such a situation, they were accorded respect.

Suddenly, a path opened in the crowd. A person wearing a white dragon-patterned attire strode out.

Tree pulled Wang Zheng aside. Mouton is here to challenge again. I wonder if he can succeed this time.

Wang Zheng was just about to go and try. Seeing Tree cling thus left him a little annoyed. Why did this timid guy even come to such a place anyway.

Whats up with this guy? Hes just a Disciple like us!

You dont understand, many here are already qualified to rank-up, but continue to bide their time in the Disciple level to sweep the records. Its rumored that ascending to Acolyte class with an engraved record has a different result. To those with talent, ranking-up is not the goal. What they want is to make it to Saint.

It had to be said that this Mouton had something about him. Those around him broke out in chatter, causing him to raise a handsome eyebrow. These strugglers around the poverty line were clearly different from him. For him, he could easily pass through, but that was not the point. He wanted to enter the Acolyte level with higher status, so that his progression could be better. Otherwise, he would have to work twice as hard.

Therefore, he would rather spend more time on the basics now. But the major trials had been dominated by the 5 Great Saints, and a few other experts from the Saint level.

When those of a higher level descended, the power they could use was capped at the lower levels standard. However, their understanding of the martial arts could bring forth power that was not of the same level. In their words, this was a completely different dimension.

Mouton was not satisfied. He was of the Wood affinity, and stood the highest chance of breaking through in the Knife Mountain Trial. Of course, he had passed the trial a long time ago, but he wanted his name carved on the stone plaque, and to replace Mu of the 5 Great Saints. Besides the huge benefits that this would bring, but more importantly, the higher powers would favor him when he entered the Acolyte Tier.

Otherwise, going it alone was too difficult, even for one with talent.

The onlookers were staring wide-eyed at Mouton. Mouton extracted his own Blade Techniques. From the sheen, one knew it was at a high level. It glimmered, which indicated that the mastery was already at a peak.

When the light entered his body, Moutons eyes glowed with a resplendent light, and rushed the knife mountain like a tornado.

The Knife Mountain trial was not something easily done in a single breath. Each knife blade needed to be estimated correctly. Missing one added 10m to the required distance, and the distance was not equal. Furthermore, the height of the blades were also different, and the point of descent was different. If ones sense was too sensitive, one would be easily distracted. Too coarse, and one could not stand it.

Mouton was challenging it for the 12th time. Each time he refined his attempt, although his approach was fairly regulated. This time, he had confidence in breaking 70m. By his calculations, Mus record was only 70 plus meters, because once past 80m, the knife blades became random, appearing and disappearing. Below the knife blades was boiling magma. It was rumored that those who fell in would enjoy the feeling of being roasted alive. Of course, nobody had done so yet.

Everybody was watching intently. Moutons movements were fast and stable. The control of Blade Techniques was competent. Most importantly was his manner, which was calm and composed.

The corner of Wang Zhengs mouth quirked. Not bad.

This Knife Mountain trials setup seemed to be a simplification of the Plum Blossom Stakes, although the variations were less. For this guy to have made it this far, he must have put in a lot of thought and effort.

If Mouton could hear his thoughts he would have burst with rage. He had spent huge sums to specially build a training room that simulated the changes of this Knife Mountain trial, especially the different changing routes. He had even hired a few professionals in order to help him break the record.

Mouton smoothly passed the 60m mark, advancing towards the 70m mark. Everybodys eyes were filled with admiration and respect. Some had tried over 100 times but still not passed it, whereas he cleared it with ease. Once past the 60m mark, the difficulty rocketed. But he had gone through it before, and continued steadily past the 70m mark. By this time, the huge energy expenditure had left him pouring with sweat. He had passed his own previous record, and was now in untrod territory. Each step brought him closer to the record.

To knock Mu off, he would then be one of the Saints new generation!

Wang Zheng shook his head slightly. At that moment, Moutons foot stepped out, but his leg wavered…

The slight waver was enough to cost Mouton his balance, and he fell.

In the next instant, Mouton was returned to the starting point. He received no prize, because he had already passed it before. But he had not broken the record, achieving 78m!

God, everybody sighed in regret.

Just 2m more, and he would have made the record. Mouton felt his whole body go limp, although his eyes held a look of disappointment and regret.

He firmly believed that as long as he reached 80m, he could replace Mu. Of course, this was not to say that Mu was any weaker than he was, but that this record was made when he had been at Disciple level. Comparing between levels was pointless.

He told himself that if he failed this time, he would ascend. He could not spend forever in the Disciple level. To challenge the Saints… perhaps it was too difficult.

Moutons score still intimidated many. In an instant, nobody dared to go. Whoever went and succumbed early would feel ashamed.

At this time, a person wearing a black metal mask walked over.

Wang Zheng stretched his arms and legs. Who cared about things like Saints or Rich Women? If there were benefits, that was enough for him. He had to make a living, and this deal seemed better than robbing people.

Wang Zheng took out his Blade Techniques. Instantly, the trial arena was completely silent. Even Mouton, who had been resting on the ground, was shocked.

Following that, the whole place burst out in disbelieving laughter.

Damn, this guy is crazy in the mind. A Basic Point Blade Technique actually came to trial?

Charcoal, this name is old-fashioned. Wearing that broken piece of metal to act cool.

If he passes 10m, Ill change my name to Ash!

The crowd eyed Tree. The fool seemed to be accompanying him. At that instant, Trees expression turned strange.

Ping… the Blade Technique entered the body.

Wang Zheng was quickly floating on the knife tip, advancing steadily. His speed was not fast, and he seemed a little unstable. The laughter grew.

But after a few seconds, the laughter had frozen, as though they had suddenly been slapped mid-laugh.

Wang Zhengs speed was increasing, and he passed 30m in a flash.

The Knife Mountain trial was supposed to get harder and harder, with the distance past 80m in the fog. Therefore, everybodys speed got slower with progress. But this person was different. He was actually… speeding up.

The figure was like a puff of wind, jumping on the knife tips. In an instant, he had passed 60m.

Was this the end?

Nope!

This was just the beginning!

The person called Charcoal showed no signs of slowing. Moutons expression had turned sober. He among them knew best. How could someone with a Basic Point Blade Technique pass 60m?

70m…

Gods, was this a dream???

Was he able to go further? Would he still go further??

Even for an Advanced Point Blade Technique user, 70m would test ones spirit and stamina heavily. Even the circulation of martial arts would reach a wall.

Especially such a breakneck pace, was simply asking for trouble.

But, with a quick whirl, Wang Zheng paused in mid-air for a moment, and was on his way. The formation of the knife tips became more and more complex, but they seemed unable to stop him. The only pity was that they could not see Wang Zhengs expression.

78… 79… 80…

This…

Ping…

Once Wang Zheng reached 80m, the moment he treaded down, the fog disappeared, and a wave of fire burst to the sky. In an instant, he was surrounded by a lava hell, the knives flickering in the fiery trap.
