Lord Xue Ying

As World Extermination God-Emperor and the other unparalleled existences tried but failed to trace down who the ‘murderer’ was, Southern Cloud King received a piece of news.

Within the Southern Cloud Nation, in the royal palace.

“Master.” An old servant respectfully greeted, “This old slave has something to report.”

“Speak your mind.” Southern Cloud King sat cross-legged looking at the servant before him. This servant before him was the Magic Servant ‘Pei Yun’. He was absolutely loyal. This magic servant was also in charge of the intelligence system the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion had! Some of the lower valued information in Southern Cloud Sacred Religion could be handled by other cultivators, but those that were extremely important were usually taken charge by some magic servants and treasure spirits.

Because they were absolutely loyal and would not leak out any pieces of news.

Magic Servant Pei Yun respectfully said: “Master, I suspect that the mysterious murderer who killed Dust Brahman King is Monarch Flying Snow.”

“What?” Southern Cloud King was startled.

This was an expert who had attracted the attention of many experts in Realm Heart Great Land, yet none could trace him down. Even though the intelligence network of his Realm Heart Great Land was formidable, it could not be ranked in the top ten when compared to many other intelligence networks across the entire Southern Cloud Sacred Religion. Yet it was able to discover who the perpetrator was?

“Elaborate now! What is the reason that gave you the assurance Xue Ying was the one that did it?” Southern Cloud King hurriedly asked, “Xue Ying should not have any enmity with that Dust Brahman King.”

“Reporting to Master, Monarch Flying Snow employed our Southern Cloud Sacred Religion intelligence network to collect all information regarding large-scale massacre and large-scale disasters. Any events we discover have to be reported to him. I’ve sent the relevant information over, and just yesterday, I even passed a set of detailed information regarding ‘Dust Brahman King’ and ‘Dark Prison’ over to Monarch Flying Snow.” Magic Servant Pei Yun said.

Southern Cloud King was carefully listening. He felt his heart tightening as he listened.

“Monarch Flying Snow has immediately ordered after receiving this piece of information, that he requires everything related to the Dust Brahman King and the Dark Prison. I even took the initiative to collect them and send them over. But not even an hour later, Dust Brahman King died. He died in the Dark Prison! And the three executioners of the Dark Prison died along with him.” Magic Servant Pei Yun said, “That was too coincidental. Hence, I suspect that Monarch Flying Snow is the one who killed Dust Brahman King. Naturally, this is just my guess.”

Southern Cloud King softly nodded. He ordered: “Pass me all the intelligence which you have on Xue Ying over to me.”

“Yes.” Magic Servant Pei Yun respectfully acknowledged.

The Southern Cloud Sacred Religion intelligence network…

Because it was controlled by magic servants and treasure spirits at the core, Xue Ying wasn’t afraid that he would be revealed after giving the orders.

But these magic servants and treasure spirits were loyal to the Southern Cloud King!

“Xue Ying was the one who did it?” Southern Cloud King did not dare believe it.

He killed the other party so cleanly.

He did not leave behind any traces, and even unparalleled existences could not find out who did it.

That Dust Brahman King who died had not called for help at all! He did not leak out the identity of this murderer. Everything pointed to the fact that it was an extremely powerful existence who killed Dust Brahman King.

‘Xue Ying has fallen so greatly in the Realm Heart God Palace yet he could still reach this level?’ Southern Cloud King pondered.

Very soon.

Large amounts of intelligence related to Xue Ying reached Southern Cloud King.

“Mn?” Southern Cloud King carefully read through them. These pieces of information were quite trivial, though it was the most of what the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion intelligence network could collect.

‘Why did he collect information on those devils and disasters?’ Southern Cloud King felt puzzled.

Xue Ying was currently at a small, remote city in Lotus Jasper Nation enjoying the good, unique wine from the pubs. For one to survive by ‘selling wine’ to cultivators, the wine was naturally special! It was even more extraordinary since the wine had spread its reputation far and away.

“Awesome! This is absolutely awesome!”

Xue Ying gulped like a cow. The wine had an insipid green color. As he drank, Xue Ying felt extremely comfortable. It made him want to drink even more!

This wine was appropriate for drinking in big gulps.

“Good wine. Good wine! It has been a while since I last had such good wine.” Xue Ying felt delighted, “Give me more wine.”

A female attendant immediately rushed over, “Sir, how much more do you want?”

“How much does your pub have?” Xue Ying asked.

“This is unique ‘Qu Clan Wine’ that the owner of our pub brewed. It isn’t too hard to brew them, just that it requires a long time. Hence, we do not store much of this wine at our pub. But the clan should have kept a huge amount of them.” The female attendant smiled.

Xue Ying mentioned: “Give me 10% of what your clan has in storage.”

“10%?” The female attendant was frightened by the amount.

There were guests by the side who heard that. One even chuckled: “This brother, the Qu Clan Wine is relatively famous in our Lotus Jasper Nation. Their Qu Clan specializes in selling wine, so they have stored an enormous amount of wine.”

Xue Ying glanced at the female attendant: “Hurry up and bring me the wine.”

One could not blame Xue Ying for asking for so much wine. The life of a cultivator was long, and Xue Ying could not have enough of this wine. To most cultivators, buying wine was considered quite extravagant. But to Xue Ying, he did not care about the price when purchasing any good wine. He even killed Black Sovereign King and Dust Brahman King recently, earning back what he lost at the Realm Heart God Palace. Xue Ying even earned way beyond what he had in the past.

The owner of the pub was incredibly startled. He began negotiating the price with Xue Ying suspiciously. What made the pub owner dumbstruck was that this enormous business had been completed quite quickly.

10% of what the Qu Clan stored was taken away by Xue Ying, and the price reached an enormous amount of 600,000 cosmos crystals! But it was just a pittance to Xue Ying.

…

After buying the good wine he liked, Xue Ying sat on the peak of a remote mountain looking as the cloud moved. He began gulping down the wine in the bottle gourd which he just got.

“Truly enjoyable. This is the best wine I have ever experienced in my life which is meant for drinking in large amounts.” Xue Ying felt his soul shaking from the delight. He had drunk before many different kinds of good wine. Some were fine and delicate, while some were extremely expensive–a single flask costing beyond 600,000 cosmos crystals. Compared to those, the Qu Clan Wine was extremely cheap.

It might be considered extravagant to many cultivators, but this was a pittance to Cosmos Gods.

And Xue Ying liked it a lot.

As he drank, different profound mysteries from the Dao of Void were being corroborated in his mind too. When he was feeling happy, Xue Ying gained even more enlightenment and inspiration as he comprehended.

He sat on the mountain top for ten over days drinking, and was also lost in thoughts for ten over days. Only after that did he continue his journey across the world.

After receiving the wine he liked, he soon received another piece of good news.

“Ying Shan Xue Ying, the Chaotic Origin Sand you need is gathered.” A voice sounded directly by Xue Ying’s ears.

And that Xue Ying who held a wine bottle gourd walking in a sway, suddenly quivered. Following that, he suddenly disappeared from the vicinity, startling many other cultivators. A drunkard disappeared all of a sudden?

Summer Wind Ancient Nation, within the royal palace.

Xue Ying went to meet Emperor Summer. Emperor Summer sat there looking at Xue Ying with a different view currently.

For Xue Ying to succeed in killing ‘Black Sovereign King’ within a short moment, this strength was something even unparalleled existences had to pay attention to.

“Greetings, Your Majesty Emperor Summer.” Xue Ying chuckled.

“The 50,000 kilograms of Chaotic Origin Sand you require.” Emperor Summer threw over a storage wristband.

Xue Ying recieved it.

With a check.

He could see all sorts of strange black sand that was glittering within. Every piece of sand was extremely fine just like the sand on the beach. But as one examined one grain of sand, they would feel how much charm it had implicitly–it was even more beautiful than any gemstones. When unparalleled existences were gathering the Chaotic Origin Essence, they would usually discover a small amount of Chaotic Origin Sand. Even though they were ignorant of how to make use of it, they understood that this was a treasure.

Emperor Summer forked out a huge price for the sake of collecting 50,000 kilograms of it.

The entire Summer Wind Ancient Nation had merely gathered about 25,000 kilograms of Chaotic Origin Sand over the long periods. Hence, Emperor Summer was forced to find another Dao of Void unparalleled existence in the Realm Heart Great Land, ‘Drifter’. Drifter himself had collected just over 15,000 kilograms of Chaotic Origin Sand! Second only to Emperor Summer. Both Emperor Summer and ‘Drifter’ had quite an alright relationship. Hence, through Drifter, Emperor Summer was able to purchase the Chaotic Origin Sand from other unparalleled existences in the Myriad Realm Ancient Nation, and that was how he could gather the required amount.

If Emperor Summer were to be the one purchasing it from them, he would most likely be slaughtered figuratively.

Good. Emperor Summer is indeed formidable for you to collect everything in such a short period.” Xue Ying chuckled. He might seem calm on the surface, yet his heart was beating faster.

He desired to own that weapon the most!

The weapon which was most appropriate to be used in conjunction with the supreme secret impartation technique <Chaotic Origin Seven Strikes>. All the main materials required to refine it had been collected. Even though the remaining supporting materials were quite expensive, the difficulty of collecting them was much lower. The ‘Chaotic Origin Sand’ was different since unparalleled existences had to gather them slowly over a long period. Currently, after collecting this 50,000 kilograms of them, the entire Realm Heart Great Land would no longer have another 50,000 kilograms any longer. To collect this amount, it might take god knows how long!

Since the weapon refinement technique was bestowed by the Realm Heart God Palace, it should be based on the fact that it could be collected on the Realm Heart Great Land.

“What kind of ingenious methods of using the Chaotic Origin Sand did you think of after studying my <Chaotic Origin Dao Scroll>? Why are you in such a hurry to require so much Chaotic Origin Sand?” Emperor Summer asked.

“The Chaotic Origin Sand has some auxiliary effect to the utilization of Chaotic Origin Energy. I seek to try it out.” Xue Ying smiled.

“If you are able to research on a technique that made use of the Chaotic Origin Sand, you can sell it to me.” Emperor Summer looked forward to it.

He could not underestimate this Monarch Flying Snow before him.

After all, in terms of realm, unparalleled existences were only at the final realm. And Xue Ying, Great Paragon Fuyi, as well as many other Paragon Masters, had reached the final bottleneck. The gap between their realm was very small. Some Great Paragons had even created unique cultivation techniques that were ingenius in its usage of the profound mysteries, boosting their strength greatly! Emperor Summer similarly desired to have these unique ‘cultivation techniques’.

Because it might inspire him and allow him to deepen his realm. That way, he would have a greater chance of jumping out of this cage.

“If I were to research a method out, I’ll definitely inform Emperor Summer first whenever I planned on selling it.” Xue Ying smiled even more brightly.

…

That day.

Xue Ying left the Summer Wind Ancient Nation. Regardless of killing Black Sovereign King or Dust Brahman King, they exemplified one point–unparalleled existences could not trace him back!

Previously, Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan and Emperor Cang had admitted it before.

And after Black Sovereign King died, Eternal Night Primogenitor attempted to trace him down yet to no avail.

And when Dust Brahman King died, World Extermination God-Emperor should have attempted to do so as well.

“Since nobody could find me, I should be relatively safe.” The avatar of Xue Ying which carried the Chaotic Origin Sand temporarily disguised his aura and appearance before returning back to the Summer Wind Capital to stay.

He would temporarily hide here.

Until he got all the materials, that would be when he begins his refinement.

…

Southern Cloud Capital, in the royal palace.

Xue Ying came to the accommodation of his teacher, the Southern Cloud King.

“Teacher, I have a matter which I require your help with.” Xue Ying mentioned.

“Oh? What’s the matter?” Southern Cloud King looked at Xue Ying. He currently had many thoughts in his mind since the intelligence network could practically validate that it was Monarch Flying Snow who killed Dust Brahman King.

Xue Ying waved his hand, causing a scroll to fly over.

“I need all the precious materials recorded on it.” Xue Ying said.

When Southern Cloud King received it, he saw a pile of materials written on it. At that moment, Southern Cloud King frowned. Even though it was quite easy to collect those materials, the total price was quite high–approximately over 100 billion cosmos crystals! This was a huge sum even to Southern Cloud King.

This disciple shouldn’t be requiring them all at this moment right?

“This is a top-graded secret treasure. It should be sufficient to purchase those materials right?” Xue Ying extended his hand, causing a saber kept in a scabbard to appear. The saber was emanating a dark aura.

Southern Cloud King examined this top-graded secret treasure.

He was shocked that his disciple could take out a top-graded secret treasure to pay for the materials. But what made him flabbergasted was the origin of this weapon.

This saber…

Was Black Sovereign King’s weapon!

“Black Sovereign King was also killed by you?” Southern Cloud King looked at Xue Ying with incredible astonishment.
