Chapter 485: The lady of Fog Isle (2)
Translated by: La0o9
Proofreader: Arya
âMilady, would you like to summon the army to massacre all living beings in this world?â the gigantic monster knelt with one knee on the ground and respectfully asked.
âDo you desire killing that much?â Su Xue Er smirked and asked.
The monster lowered its head deeply and humbly replied: âI apologize if my words offend you, it was because I recognize your anger towards some kind of restraintâ
âRestraint?â
Su Xue Er whispered: âThatâs right, Iâve been avoiding it for too long, I really should face it head onâŠâ
She reached out her hand to pluck the scepter from the ground.
The monster opened its palm to let Su Xue Er stand on it.
Then he brought her to ride on top of his head.
âLet us go, that directionâ Su Xue Er pointed to a certain direction.
âYesâ
The monster spread his wings wide and moved.
With a âwhooshâ, the monster had ascended into the air, heading for the Confederate capital.
It was very fast, going out of sight in mere seconds.
Zhang Ying Hao stared at the air, muttering: âWhere is she going?â
âDonât know, but from how angry she looked, somebody is certainly going to get itâ the small white bird commented.
âWith such power, even if we go weâll only get in her wayâ Ye Fei Li crossed his arms and commented.
The President stood at the door of the mansion and slowly said: âIf her safety is no longer a concern, the matter between her and the 9 Lords is no longer something we should interfere withâ
âI also feel the sameâ Varona nodded in agreement.
The group returned to the mansion.
As soon as they sat down, a scream was heard.
It was Ye Fei Li, rolling on the ground in pain while screaming.
He almost seemed to be suffering from some sort of torture.
Everyone was frightened.
But before they managed to do anything, Ye Fei Li suddenly stood up again.
âHow are you now?â Zhang Ying Hao asked.
âIâm fine, itâs just some sudden pain, itâs ok nowâ Ye Fei Li was breathing heavily as he replied.
He had a strange look on his face.
âSay, do any of you hear or see anything?â
The group of people and weapons of Huang Quan all went silent.
It was so silent all around that the only sound they heard was a faint breeze as it passed through the trees.
âIf youâre talking about the mountain winds then sure, I hear itâ the small white bird answered.
âItâs not the mountain windsâ Ye Fei Li replied.
âThen thereâs nothing elseâ Liao Xing said.
âDonât you usually hear a lot of strange things with your Godâs Chosen Skill anyways?â Zhang Ying Hao asked.
Ye Fei Liâs expression turned even stranger.
âNone of you really hear anything at all?â
They all shook their heads.
Zhang Ying Hao thought for a bit and asked: âWhat did you hear?â
âAn unknown voice came from somewhere and told me: âWelcome new user of the Soul Points Conversion Device. From now on, whenever you kill something, the absorbed chaotic powers will be filtered, leaving only pure Soul Points, improving your rate of evolutionâ
âIâm guessing that would be the card Su Xue Er gave youâ Liao Xing said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
âSoul Points, what a nostalgic name that isâ the Soul Separating Hook sighed.
âWhat are Soul Points?â Ye Fei Li was intrigued.
âSoul Points are also called Divine Power, the most basic power of the worldâs Origin, purest form of power for any living beings, it can even be used to trigger the use of Lawsâ
The Soul Separating Hook told Ye Fei Li: âSeems like what Su Xue Er gave you was a very impressive Godâs Chosen Skillâ
âIs that so?â Ye Fei Li wasnât quite sure.
âEven we canât use Soul Points, only Divine Armaments are able toâ the small white bird added in admiration.
âSo Iâll become a Divine Armament?â Ye Fei Li was more confused.
âItâs not that, youâll become as strong as us Divine Armaments, possibly even surpassing usâ the Soul Separating Hook replied.
Hearing the Soul Separating Hook, everyone looked at Ye Fei Li full of admiration.
âIâm Gu Qing Shanâs partner over here, she shouldâve given me such a thing like that just nowâ Zhang Ying Hao muttered.
The Soul Separating Hook explained: âThe ability to directly use Soul Points isnât common, there are only enough of them in the Samsara worlds to count on one hand, Iâm guessing that she only happened to find that single oneâ
âBut she gave it to Ye Fei Liâ Liao Xing complained.
âThatâs because Ye Fei Li is Gu Qing Shanâs good brotherâ the small white bird chimed in.
âIâm also one arenât I?â Liao Xing refuted.
âThatâs not true, Lord Su isnât such a simple person that she would give Ye Fei Li a present, just because of his relationship with Gu Qing Shanâ the President commented.
Everyone looked to him.
The Presidentâs eyes had a glint of understanding only possessed by one who was highly experienced in life.
âNot just her power, you shouldnât underestimate the other characteristics of that young girl as wellâ
âThen why?â Liao Xing asked.
âThe fact that Ye Fei Li could make her change her attitude that easily is part of the reasonâ the President said.
Varona added: âFurthermore, she mustâve gotten to know Ye Fei Li quite well from the memories of his girlfriendâ
âIndeed, she mustâve saw something about him that she could empathize withâ the President added.
The two leaders easily dissected the situation in just a few words.
Everyone nodded in agreement after a few moments of thought.
Liao Xing glared at Ye Fei Li, crying unfair: âI was supposed to be the one who cultivates the fastest. Brat, I object to you using that thing of yours to cheat!â
Ye Fei Li ignored Liao Xing.
He took out his personal Holo-Brain and said: âImpartial Goddess, please find me a preyâ
He wanted to check what kind of change Soul Points would bring to him.
Impartial Goddess answered: [Mr. Ye Fei Li, there is a Foundation realm late stage cultivator 750km to your South Eastâ
âThis person had just killed the Mayor as well as the Commissioner of the town, now currently robbing a bankâs vault. According to Confederate laws, you may kill that person on the spot]
âGot itâ
Ye Fei Li turned off his Holo-Brain.
As he was about to leave, someone knocked on the floor.
That person loudly called out from outside: âIs there anyone here?â
âWho are you?â Liao Xing answered.
He stood up, wanting to open the door.
Zhang Ying Hao grabbed his hand and pulled back.
âStopâ
Zhang Ying Hao whispered.
âWhat is it?â Liao Xing asked.
âThereâs a faint killing intent, something must be wrongâ Zhang Ying Hao replied.
With a solemn expression, he stood up and used spirit energy to open the door from afar.
The door easily opened.
A long-haired man was waiting at the door.
He carried with him a long spear decorated with a red string.
Seeing the door open by itself, the man smiled and spoke: âQuite impressive of you to notice my killing intent. But donât misunderstand, itâs not directed towards you lot specificallyâ
âWho might you be?â Zhang Ying Hao asked.
The man lightly bowed: âIâm a messengerâ
âWhose messenger?â
âThe Asura realmâ
Everyoneâs faces changed.
The Soul Separating Hook spoke: âWhat business do you have in the human realm?â
âSimply put, the Demi of Heaven realm and Wraiths from the Wraith realm are organizing an allied army, wanting to declare total war on the fused Huang Quan and human realmâ
âThe Heavenly God was already defeatedâ the President spoke in a low voice.
âThat is due to the work of another worldâs Combatant, the other Demis donât want to accept such a resultâ
The man continued: âThe human realm was only saved by the efforts of the hundred quadrillion dead, it paid no price, but gets to enjoy all the benefits of fusing two worldsâ
He smirked and said: âNo one couldâve thought that fusing two worlds would bring so much benefits, and since the beings of the human realm mature very quickly, both the Demi and Wraiths are already unwilling to wait anymoreâ
âYou mean to say that they want to get their hands on our post-fusion human realm?â the President asked.
âIndeed, if the Heaven realm or Wraith realm can absorb your world as well, they will also grow stronger. Who wouldnât be tempted by such benefits?â
Everyone froze.
The room fell silent.
âSo you only came to deliver that message?â Zhang Ying Hao asked, suspicious.
âOf course notâ
The man kept talking: âTruthfully, even the Beast King realm is already acting secretly. The entire Samsara world wants your world, so Iâm here to give you a warningâ
Varona went straight to the point: âIf itâs as you said, the Heaven realm, Wraith realm, Beast King realm are all tempted by the human realm, why would your Asura world be so generous and tell us?â
The man smiled wider, declaring: âWe have a peaceful solution. Let US absorb your world into our Asura world, this way weâll protect you and ensure that you wonât be invaded by another worldâ
âŠ
On another side.
The Confederate capital.
Earlier tonight, the 9 Lords had just finished a press conference.
At this time, all unrelated personnel have left.
The most influential people of all 9 Lords have gathered in the main hall of the Huang family to enjoy a banquet.
This banquet wasnât public.
Besides the 8 Lords and their main branch members, the only people here were the high-ranking cultivators who offered them their services.
Using the opportunity that came from the 2 worldsâ fusion, the speed of their cultivation greatly increased.
Golden Core realm was the lowest qualification to come under the 9 Lordsâ service.
As the time of the banquet drew near, more and more Combatants came.
They were greeting and getting to know one another.
The Grand Cultivation Alliance will be formed.
As the main recipients of its benefits, every guest here was smiling ear to ear.
The clock struck 7 PM.
A graceful old man came forward on the stand.
âLadies, gentlemenâ the old man began to speak to everyone at the scene.
âToday, will be a day to go into historyâ
Bang!
The main gate was blasted open.
Intense wind flowed into the banquet hall.
Su Xue Erâs figure appeared in the wind, glancing down at the people below.
âSu Xue Er!â
âLord Su!â
âDaughter!â
As they noticed it was her, everyone called out.
The attacks they prepared were stopped.
As she was a Lord herself, she wasnât a threat.
The security personnel were glad that they noticed who she was soon enough that they didnât hurt her.
If they had hurt a Lord during such an occasion, they would probably have no choice but to shoot themselves to repent.
âXue Er!â
âMy daughter, comeâ
Su Xue Erâs parents waved to her.
Su Xue Er silently walked over, looking at her parents and spoke sternly: âMother, father, I seem to remember that I was the head of the Su family, why did you overpass my authority and represent the Su family?â
Su Xue Erâs father, Su Wan Xinâs expression was blank.
But he said nothing.
âXue Er, since youâve only just become a Lord, thereâs still a lot that you donât know about, so we wanted to help guide youâ Madame Su answered stiffly.
âThatâs right, Xue Er, youâre still young, your parents wouldnât harm you, so let them help youâ another Lord smiled and said.
The other Lords also nodded in agreement.
Su Xue Er suddenly reached her hand out to grab both her parentâs wrists.
They instantly froze on the spot.
Two black worm-like insects crawled out from the Su coupleâs ears in fright, wanting to flee.
Pop!
They didnât manage to escape and was reduced to a mist of blood in mid air.
âSo thatâs it huhâŠâ
Su Xue Erâs last bit restraints were blown off.
Strands of white light began to sprout from her body like needles of a porcupine.
âSomeone actually dared to put such a thing on my parents, how completely unexpectedâ Su Xue Er muttered.
