God Emperor

“Abyss,” Zhang Ruochen called out.

The Spatial Ring on his fingers emitted white light. Then, the Abyss Ancient Sword flew out from the white light, refining all the Holy Swords, amulet treasures and Genuine Martial Arms on the ground.

As for the other pills and rare books, he put them in the ring for safekeeping.

When Red Wish Emissary had no courage to touch these things, Zhang Ruochen was unscrupulous.

The only thing that Zhang Ruochen did not touch was the imperial edict on the Blue Star Emissary.

The imperial edict was a priceless treasure. However, it had traces of the Saint Power left by a Saint.

Even if he took and hid the imperial edict in the Scroll World, Blue Star Emissary’s master would find him. In other words, some things can be collected, but couldn’t be touched.

He put the Abyss Ancient Sword away, then caught Blue Star Emissary’s corpse, flying toward the Cyan Cloud County.

Outside the Cyan Cloud County, there was a Taoist temple hidden in the deep mountain, called “Taoist Temple in Cloud.” The ancient Taoist temple was built on the top of a cliff that stood several hundred meters high. Through day and night, white fog from the mountain covered the long bridges, and spiritual cranes flew around the mountain, giving people a beautiful view of sacred mountain and sanctum.

A few days ago, the disciples of the Yin and Yang Sect who wanted to rob Zhang Ruochen’s sacred stone fled from the Cyan Cloud County and hid in the Taoist Temple in Cloud. There was a predecessor of the Yin and Yang Sect who had retired in the Taoist Temple. The predecessor could secure them, without fearing that the evil masters would find and kill them.

But Lin Yue had been extremely distressed the last few days.

He used to be a talented master on the Heaven Board with a handsome appearance. Numerous junior sister apprentices and senior sister apprentices worshipped him.

However, those junior sister apprentices and senior sister apprentices all disdained him and detoured when they saw him now.

He knew that the reason was that he knelt to an evil superior and betrayed junior uncle master, leading the Yin and Yang Sect’s Treasure Hunting Compass fell into the hands of the evil superior.

Lin Yue didn’t think he’s done anything wrong.

The evil master was much more powerful than the junior uncle master, that the junior uncle master was severely wounded and unable to resist. Did he have another choice?

As long as he could live, kneeling down was nothing to him.

A man would always have the opportunity to be outstanding, well known, and respectable as long as he was alive.

Once he died, everything would be gone.

Was there anything more valuable than life?

“I endured humiliation for a greater future. One day, you will not recognize me as a cowardly villain.”

Lin Yue clenched his hands and said angrily.

Suddenly, a subtle sound of breeze came from behind him.

Lin Yue turned around to look. When he saw the familiar figure standing behind him, he was frightened to death. He bent his legs and knelt on the ground with a Dong, his whole body shaking.

Zhang Ruochen carried Blue Star Emissary’s corpse on his shoulder and stood about 10 meters away from Lin Yue. Seeing his cowardliness, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help but feel amused. He asked, “Why are you so afraid of me?”

“You… You are a predecessor with a heroic figure, standing before me. Just like the apparition of the Saint, a manifestation of the Gods. As a junior, I feel afraid. How can I not kneel down?”

Lin Yue had seen the extent of Zhang Ruochen’s strength, so he was terrified and pale, and was even shivering. Lin Yue was just complimenting Zhang Ruochen because he didn’t want to upset Zhang Ruochen.

“Do you remember me?”

“Yes, of couese.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded his head and didn’t want to bother with Lin Yue’s nonsense, so he asked, “I’m giving you a chance to become famous. Even though it’s risky, you’ll get tremendous rewards. It depends on whether or not you are brave enough to seize this chance.”

“What is the opportunity?”

Lin Yue raised his head and asked incredulously.

Was there even such a good thing?

Who wouldn’t want to be famous?

“Bang!”

Zhang Ruochen threw the corpse of the Blue Star Emissary to the ground, kicked it to Lin Yue and said, “He’s Blue Star Emissary of the Black Market Excellence Hall. He’s been severely wounded by me. You only need to stab him a few more times, and you can take the credit for killing him.”

“Dark Blue… Emissary…”

“What? Are you scared?” Zhang Ruochen asked coldly.

“No, I am not terrified.”

Lin Yue took a deep breath and suppressed his fear. He extended a finger and pressed on Blue Star Emissary’s waist. Then he immediately withdrew his hand, as if avoiding an electric shock, and exclaimed, “He… He… He is already dead!”

Zhang Ruochen gazed coldly and said, “I said that he is severely injured, so he is severely injured. Do you understand?”

“Yes, I understand, I understand.”

Lin Yue nodded his head unceasingly like chicken pecking rice. Suddenly, his eyes twinkled with a realization, “You mean, by my cultivation, I can’t kill Blue Star Emissary, but I can kill him if he is badly wounded.”

“Yes, exactly.”

Zhang Ruochen continued leading the conversation, ” So, how did he get hurt?”

“You mauled him, didn’t you?”

Lin Yue wanted to say that, but he stopped himself when he saw Zhang Ruochen’s eyes. He paused and started again, “Blue Star Emissary had an intense fight with a mysterious predecessor of our Yin and Yang Sect, and they were both weakened by this fight. At a crucial moment, I fought with Blue Star Emissary who was severely wounded. Not only did I kill him, but I also saved the predecessor. My Predecessor, is this OK?”

Without a doubt, Lin Yue had a talent for lying through his teeth. Even Zhang Ruochen admired him a little.

Zhang Ruochen laughed and said, “This can be your business. You must seize this chance if you want to be famous. There is nothing that you can’t do once you become a celebrity.”

“Predecessor, I thank you a thousand times for your patronage. Lin Yue will never forget your kindness.”

Lin Yue showed his gratitude by pressing his hands on the ground and bowing constantly.

When he looked up again, there was no trace of Zhang Ruochen, but only Blue Star Emissary’s corpse.

Lin Yue looked around to make sure that Zhang Ruochen was gone, and then snorted coldly, “Predecessor, a holy-shit Predecessor. He must have killed Blue Star Emissary but is making me take care of it because he is afraid of the revenge of the Black Market. But… I am a disciple of the Yin and Yang Sect, and I am not scared of the revenge of the Black Market.”

Lin Yue stood up, dusting his knees.

He turned his eyes to Blue Star Emissary’s corpse, instantly crouched down to fumble him, and soon found the imperial edict.

After unrolling the imperial edict, Lin Yue was trembling in excitement, “Wow! It’s the imperial edict issued by Saint of Blood Hell, Blue Star Emissary’s master. If I take this imperial edict and his corpse, who would dare say that Blue Star Emissary wasn’t killed by me? Haw-haw!”

Lin Yue was too lazy and didn’t care about the mysterious evil master’s motive for giving Blue Star Emissary’s corpse to him. Everything could be explained only by the imperial edict.

He could already imagine the shocked expression of all the senior masters, the adoring looks from junior sister apprentices and senior sister apprentices, and the various practice resources once he returned to the Yin and Yang Sect.

He must make up a perfect story.

How was it possible to have no legendary story? Since he’s about to become famous, Lin Yue needed to have a great story. He got more excited as he was thinking about it.

After leaving the Taoist temple, Zhang Ruochen went back to Red Willow Heights.

Zhang Ruochen believed that Lin Yue thought highly of fame and fortune, so he would make a big fuss about Blue Star Emissary’s corpse to achieve his purpose of getting instant fame.

At the very least, even if Lin Yue told the truth, Red Wish Emissary would be the one at a disadvantage. What would it have to do with Zhang Ruochen? He could change his identity and rearrange the plot to kill Di Yi, which would only waste more time, but nothing else.

“The information that Blue Star Emissary is killed by a warrior of the Completion of Heaven Realm of the Yin and Yang Sect will spread soon. Will Di Yi buy it? Will he believe that Red Wish Emissary has secretly cooperated with the Yin and Yang Sect?” Zhang Ruochen thought.

Eastern Region had five forces: Black Market, East Region Saint Mansions, Martial Market Bank, Yin and Yang Sect, and Moon Worship Demonic Sect.

Among these forces, the East Region Saint Mansions represented the official power. It had the Chens’ background, a large number of troops, as well as civil officers of the Confucian Sect, which was considered as a really strong force.

The Martial Market Bank was the sworn enemy to the Black Market.

The Moon Worship Demonic Sect did not only cooperate with the Black Market, but also competed against each other.

Therefore, the only group in the Eastern Region with no conflicts of interest with the Black Market was the Yin and Yang Sect. Even though the Yin and Yang Sect claimed itself as the “leader of all sects” and “leader in the righteous path,” it had never fought with the Black Market, the group that represented evil on large and small scales.

Even if Red Wish Emissary formed cliques and factions inside the Black Market, Di Yi would not care. After all, the Black Market was his territory. So, no matter how much she tried, she wouldn’t be able to accomplish anything.

By giving Di Yi a hint that Red Wish Emissary had already started working together with the Yin and Yang Sect, would make Di Yi focus on the issue. He would go to Cyan Cloud County to kill the Red Wish Emissary, to prevent future problems.

As long as Di Yi could be lured to the Cyan Cloud County, everything would be much easier.

“Di Yi, I am looking forward to your next move after the news of Blue Star Emissary’s death.”

When Zhang Ruochen returned to the Red Willow Heights, he saw a group of evil warriors put bloody corpses in the car, where they would transport the bodies to feed the savage beasts.

When she returned to the Red Willow Heights, she started a bloody slaughter. She killed over 40 people in a row. All the victims were the weathercocks who expressed their loyalty to Blue Star Emissary earlier in the morning.

Ji Gui should have died, but he was the successor of a Half-Saint and was also the master of the Seventh Change in the Fish-Dragon Realm, so Red Wish Emissary didn’t kill him, even though she knew he was not loyal. After all, he was a master and would still be useful.

“Meet the Great Guardian.”

After seeing Zhang Ruochen, those evil warriors were awed. They walked towards him and knelt down to show their respect. Even Ji Gui followed too.
