Chapter 497: Chapter 497: The Grey Vine Goddess’ Incarnation Takes Action, The Third Prince Arrives

“City Lord, I have succeeded!”

Miao Jing extended two slender, snowy fingers and pinched the Embroidered Flying Sword before merging into the night like a patch of black mist.

The next moment, she appeared in front of Ye Feng and knelt on one knee.

Excitement was written all over her face.

This Secret Technique called “Shadow Kill” was really too powerful!

In the realm of assassination spells, Miao Jing was willing to regard it as the strongest.

“Well done!”

Ye Feng also praised her, “It’s just a pity that the “Shadow Kill” Secret Technique has nine layers, and you have only reached the peak of the third layer, even with direct guidance.”

“I am slow to learn,” Miao Jing quickly lowered her head.

The slight jubilation in her heart was completely gone.

She realized she still had a long way to go.

“Sect Leader, what kind of Secret Technique is this? It’s so exquisite; it gives me the impression of a Ninth Grade spell.”

Gong Qingqiu came over, her pretty face full of astonishment.

Ye Feng turned around, “This is “Shadow Kill”, a Secret Technique created by this Sect Leader today after spending a whole day on it, comprising nine layers. If you train to the peak, it’s comparable to a Ninth Grade spell.”

Gong Qingqiu was inwardly shaken, “That strong!”

“Not bad,” Ye Feng nodded.

Even if it was a Ninth Grade spell, so what?

In his view now, if it were not Divine Skills, they weren’t worth considering.

Of course, for the members of the Heiluo Sha, the “Shadow Kill” Secret Technique was enough for them to practice for a lifetime.

“From now on, the Embroidered Flower Flying Sword will be the exclusive assassination Spiritual Artifact for Heiluo Sha, and as for the Secret Technique “Shadow Kill”, it will be the exclusive assassination technique; every member must learn it.”

Ye Feng issued his directives.

“Understood!” Gong Qingqiu nodded.

“City Lord, what should I do?” Miao Jing felt a little flustered.

“You continue to diligently practice “Shadow Kill”, and also, teach the other members. From today on, you are Rose Number One. I hope to see a certain level of leadership from you.”

“Your subordinate will definitely not fail your expectations, City Lord!”

“Continue with your practice!”

Ye Feng walked to the lakeside and left the first five layers of “Shadow Kill” on a wall.

In his view, even just the first five layers would be enough for the Heiluocha Members to practice for a long time.

With time, Heiluo Sha would continue to grow and strengthen, and once the members’ abilities reached a certain stage, they could be sent out on missions.

At times, they could play an unexpectedly significant role.

Thinking this, Ye Feng leaped and returned to Misty Peak.

…

Thousands of miles away.

A plain area.

The Grey Vine Goddess’s avatar hovered high in the sky, her eyes filled with a chilling ruthlessness.

“Hehehe, finally arrived.”

She looked down below, her gaze focusing on a small city with a population exceeding three hundred thousand. She licked her lips and swooped down.

Boom!

Once the aura of the Spirit Sea Realm was released, even with several Element Gathering Realm powerhouses present inside the city, they were still powerless to resist.

Within less than an hour, the entire city fell, and blood flowed like rivers.

The Grey Vine Goddess laughed grimly.

She made hand signs and began collecting the blood, advancing towards the next city to carry out a horrific massacre.

The next morning.

The Grey Vine Goddess’s avatar had slaughtered millions, nearly obliterating one-tenth of the population in the Nanyun Thirteen States.

“Still not enough!”

“The energy contained in this blood is too little, the massacre must continue.”

She licked her lips and proceeded with her actions.

Ye Feng was unaware of this situation.

At the moment, he looked at Third Prince Ling Luo Tian standing before him, blinking in surprise.

“What brings the Third Prince to visit?”

“Of course, it is to visit Sect Master Ye.

The Third Prince smiled, “Has Sect Master Ye been keeping up with the recent changes in the Genius Rankings?”

“`

“No.” Ye Feng replied succinctly.

“Uh…” The Third Prince was stunned, thinking to himself that you’re one of the top ten permanent elders on the talent ranking, and yet you don’t pay attention to the rankings?

Alas! It was a wasted effort after all!

The Third Prince covered his face with his hand, feeling somewhat helpless.

“Could it be that there have been significant changes in the ranking recently?” Ye Feng’s eyes flickered slightly as he asked.

The Third Prince nodded eagerly, “Naturally, in recent times, the prodigies on the list have been challenging each other, and even Yi Zhuang, ranked first as Heavenly Blade King, has been successively challenged by the third to the tenth prodigies. However, he won easily every time, and his position at the top remains unshaken.”

“What about the second place?” Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, “I remember the second place was Jiang Baige, the top disciple of Sword King Sect. Hasn’t he challenged Yi Zhuang?”

“No!” The Third Prince shook his head repeatedly, “Ever since Jiang Baige’s defeat, he has disappeared without a trace, and he doesn’t accept challenges from others anymore. It’s as if he’s vanished from the face of the earth.”

Ye Feng stroked his chin and said, “In my view, Jiang Baige is consolidating himself, preparing for a breakthrough to make a startling comeback.”

“I think so too.” The Third Prince nodded.

Ye Feng looked at the smiling Third Prince and asked, “The Third Prince has come all this way. Surely it’s not just to tell me this, right?”

The Third Prince forced an awkward smile, “Indeed, I cannot hide anything from Sect Master Ye’s discerning eyes.”

“Speak, what is it?” Ye Feng inquired.

“Cough cough!”

The Third Prince cleared his throat, “Has Sect Master Ye heard about the upcoming Star Elevation Festival?”

Ye Feng rolled his eyes, “Who hasn’t heard about that?”

“Brilliant!”

The Third Prince clapped his hands, “Since Sect Master Ye is aware of it, then, when the time comes for the Star Elevation Festival, please join us at our table. Other permanent elders will also be present, and including me, there will be a total of eleven people.”

“You’ve come all this way just to say this?”

Ye Feng was at a loss for words.

But on second thought, this matter seemed significant!

Sitting at the same table implied good relationships.

At such a significant event, the Third Prince was asking to sit with the ten permanent elders, which seemed like he was preparing to establish a faction of his own.

Or rather, he was showing off his connections to the outside world.

“Are you asking us ten permanent elders to support you so that you can vie for the position of emperor?”

Ye Feng guessed this point.

Upon hearing this, the Third Prince became solemn and nodded, “Yes, I indeed have ambitions to compete for the next emperor.”

Ancestor Lingmiao had already decided to appoint the Third Prince as the next emperor, but for the time being, the Lingmiao Emperor kept the news under wraps.

Within the Mystique Kingdom, apart from them, no one else knew who had been chosen as the next emperor.

The Third Prince saw that he still had many competitors.

“What’s in it for me?”

Ye Feng thought for a moment; taking sides in this matter seemed reasonable, and he considered the Third Prince a decent choice. He was willing to side with him.

However, without benefits, that wouldn’t do.

“A secret realm!”

The Third Prince took out an ancient key and placed it on the table, “The secret realm is located tens of thousands of miles southeast of Mystique Kingdom, in a place called Nanyun Thirteen States.”

“What grade of secret realm?” Ye Feng asked.

He had heard of Nanyun Thirteen States.

It was a nation mostly populated by mortals, without even a Spirit Sea Realm.

What kind of secret realm could such a place have?

“That secret realm is not weak. I speculate it contains the lifetime treasure of a Divine Origin Realm Great Power.” The Third Prince lowered his voice, looking serious.

“Divine Origin Realm… that’s it?”

Ye Feng was not very interested.

The Third Prince became a bit anxious, “How about this, I’ll give Sect Master Ye three more Supreme Grade Spirit Stones?”

“Agreed.” Ye Feng nodded.

A secret realm of a Divine Origin Realm Great Power, plus three Supreme Grade Spirit Stones, was barely enough to make an appearance to support the Third Prince.

This was, presumably, his… appearance fee!

“Finally agreed!”

The Third Prince breathed a sigh of relief.

To him, the presence of the other nine permanent elders paled in comparison to Ye Feng alone.

Having Ye Feng’s support, becoming the next chosen emperor was practically a done deal, wasn’t it?

If only the Third Prince knew that Ancestor Lingmiao had already selected him as the next emperor, he might have cried over his losses.

Unfortunately, he had no idea!
