Chapter 2140: Exterminate All Living Things (1/2)
“That’s right!” The man with a scar on his face nodded, “Originally, the ruler wasn’t interested in the chaos Fifth Earth Lightning Pool. However, he recently read that the lightning pools were related to the 33 Heavens...”
“That’s the reason why His Majesty made us hunt for the Fifth Earth Lightning Pool. As for the secret about the lightning pools and their relation to the 33 heavens, His Majesty didn’t explain further. All we need to do is to follow his orders and locate the lightning pool!”
The bald man nodded, “Even if that’s true, wouldn’t we need to locate another eight lightning pools?”
“We managed to find out that Tian Chen in the Heavenly World obtained the Black Sea Lightning Pool in the past but lost it some time ago to a guy called Huang Xiaolong in the outside world.”
“Huang Xiaolong?” The bald-headed man shook his head and sighed, “That makes things so much easier. We can just send several men to capture Huang Xiaolong to search his soul for the location of the Black Sea Lightning Pool!”
“Don’t look down on Huang Xiaolong!” The scar-faced man explained, “I heard that even Tian Chen and Wan Shi weren’t his opponents. They nearly died during the exchange, and when the Heavenly Master made his move, he failed to subdue Huang Xiaolong. That’s the reason Huang Xiaolong managed to obtain the Black Sea Lightning Pool!”
“What?! How can that be?!”
The man with the scar-faced nodded, “Since the Heavenly World sealed off the matter, not many people know about it. His Majesty has given the order to not engage with Huang Xiaolong even if he appears before us. As long as we report any news about Huang Xiaolong to His Majesty, everything will be fine. Lord Marshal or His Majesty will take action themselves!”
The bald man nodded like a chicken pecking on rice.
Just as they were about to move out to search for the Fifth Earth Lightning Pool, a massive explosion broke the serenity of the place, and a bunch of experts flew towards them.
When the scar-faced man saw the group of newcomers, a trace of shock flashed through his eyes.
“Mighty God Heavenly Country!”
Those who had just arrived were experts from the Mighty God Heavenly Country, and the person leading the way was a thin man supporting himself with a long sword.
“Xiong Gang, why are you here?!” The scar-faced man glared at the old man with a hostile expression.
Xiong Gang laughed, “Zhu Xinyi, if you guys can come here, then why can’t we?”
Zhu Xinyi's face sank as he realized that they were also there for the Fifth Earth Lightning Pool.
How did they find out about this? Did someone leak the news?
“Did your Mighty God Heavenly Country plant spies inside our Country?!” A trace of iciness flashed past Zhu Xinyi’s eyes.
Xiong Gang ignored him and smiled, “Zhu Xinyi, why are you talking as if you guys don’t plant spies in our country?”
Zhu Xinyi could only stare at him with a dumbfounded expression.
“Alright, enough chit-chat.” Xiong Gang continued, “Since we are both here for the Fifth Earth Lightning Pool, we’ll split up. Whoever finds it first can have it.” He quickly ignored Zhu Xinyi as he turned around to order the members of his Mighty God Heavenly Country, “Split up and find it!”
The experts from the Mighty God Heavenly Country nodded their heads before moving out.
Zhu Xinyi’s face turned gloomy.
“Big Brother, what should we do?” The bald man asked.
“Locate the Fifth Earth Lightning Pool before them!” Zhu Xinyi said solemnly.
No matter how much they looked for it, neither party managed to see signs of it. After half a day of searching and nearly flipping the place over, both parties retreated with a gloomy expression on their faces.
Unwilling to give up on their search, they expanded their search radius to cover as much ground as possible.
Two days passed in a flash.
