Chapter 729: The Boatman’s Confession Style (1/2)

Atop the Longevity Palace, Su Xing was silent, gazing at the mountain that rose into the heavens and clouds. Gongsun Huang sat on his shoulder, also silent. At this moment, a dazzling light flashed in the sky, bright in the black sky. A Crimson Star fell, finally making Su Xing raise his brow. This was the first Starfall since the Three Heavenly Books ended.

And this also reminded him the cruelty of the final battle.

“Judging from the direction of the Starfall, that seems to be the Azure Dragon Territory’s Three Clarities Field.” A leisurely voice came from behind him. Su Xing turned his head to see Knowledge Star Resourceful Star Wu Xinjie walk over with a smile.

“Young Lord, it appears that the Investigative Star’s master has finally made a move against Xie Zhenyuan.”

“Do you think it was Xie Zhenyuan?” Su Xing smiled and asked.

Wu Xinjie nodded. She answered without hesitation: “That Investigative Star’s contractor is hidden extremely well, even using Xie Zhenyuan as bait. The Most High Path having such a Star Master perhaps was letting a wolf into the house. With the Three Heavenly Books over, he should first kill Xie Zhenyuan to add to his own Star Energy. If things are as expected...”

“If they aren’t...Xinjie, do you think Xie Zhenyuan would still have rescue?” Su Xing said.

“After all, he is the one called Liangshan Continent’s number one Star Master. For him to say he wants to protect a Star General, Xinjie does not believe.” Wu Xinjie shook her head. The Most High Path was formerly the head of the Azure Dragon Territory’s Alliance of Ten, and he was called the most talented Star Master by everyone. For him to contract a useless Star General, the Knowledge Star found this very difficult to believe, but that Investigative Star’s contractor was very adept at concealing his strength, a very cautious character. If Xie Zhenyuan was actually hiding some trick, he likely still would not be able to conceal it from the assassin.

So this depended on whatever ability this former genius Star Master had in the end.

But regardless, the Starfall coming from the Most High Path showed that at least one of them Starfell. No matter who it was, they now faced one less powerful enemy. If it was Bing Qingxuan, that would still be fine. If it was Xie Zhenyuan...Wu Xinjie felt this situation was somewhat dangerous.

“With the Heavenly Books ended, next is the Seven Stars Assembly. Young Lord, have you thought carefully?” Wu Xinjie’s tone was delicate.

“Whether or not only seven can climb the mountain?” Su Xing asked.

Wu XInjie’s smile retracted and seriously nodded. “Only seven, Young Lord. Otherwise, we will have no way to climb the mountain.”

Su Xing understood her meaning and muttered: “Everyone else is an enemy...”

“These Star Duels still has the Leader Star’s Uprising. Xinjie fears there will be even fewer openings.” Wu Xinjie thought and said: “Young Lord, should we leak new of Song Qingci’s Uprising? I thnk those Star Generals will definitely be very willing to work together.”

“No need.” Su Xing shook his head. Even if they exposed Song Qingci’s Leader Star Uprising, according to power relationships, the Purple Thunder Monster would probably still bear the brunt. At best, they would unite only to destroy Song Qingci’s faction and then face him after obtaining their Star Energy. This was quite problematic.

“I wonder if we can climb the peak together with Qingci.” Su Xing looked at Wu Xinjie: “Song Qingci also wants to end the Star Duels. Her thinking is the same as ours.”

“But she is an Uprising.” Wu Xinjie pursed her lips, disagreeing with Su Xing’s thinking.

“We’ll see.” Su Xing’s brow tightly wrinkled.

Seeing Su Xing in a headache, Little Huang used a hand to help rub Su Xing’s temple.

Wu Xinjie hopped over and hugged one of Su Xing’s arms, her chest sticking closely. “Young Lord, then let us first go see our Sisters’ Heavenly Books.”

“En.”

Su Xing returned to the plaza under the Longevity Palace’s stele.

All of the girls had already been waiting. Su Xing’s gaze swept over them – Ling Yingmei, Wu Xinjie, and the others all had knowing smiles. Gong Caiwei and Xi Yue were quiet nearby.

Wu Xinjie spoke of what happened during the Heavenly Books.

According to Chao Gai’s calamity, Su Xing was to comprehend three Heavenly Books. However, even if she did not do such a thing, they had this plan anyways. Their coming Star Duels during the Seven Stars Assembly would be dangerous. Su Xing would be the first to become everyone’s target, so increasing Su Xing’s power was priority. And all of Su Xing’s wives did not hesitate to show they wanted to give all of their Former Volume Heavenly Books to Su Xing.

No one had ever dared to think that a Star Master could comprehend five, six, or even seven Heavenly Books.

Presently on Su Xing’s side, Wu XInjie, Lin Yingmei, Wu Siyou, Hua Wanyue, Yan Yizhen, Gongsun Huang, An Suwen, Hu Niangzi, Lu Shaqing, and Chai Ling had comprehended Former Volume Heavenly Books. Additionally, with Xi Yue and Gong Caiwei, they had twelve of these Heavenly Books. This was unprecedented.

“As Young Master’s first wife, Your Servant’s Heavenly Book ought to be given to Young Master.” Lin Yingmei’s words were unquestionable.

“No. In the future Star Duels, your power will be the most important, Yingmei.” Wu Siyou was the first to oppose. “Yingmei, please allow Your Concubine to substitute for your affection.”

“Milord and I share the Double Sevens Contract and owes everyone too much. This Heavenly Book should be given out by Me.” Hua Wanyue’s tone was strict.

“To give Master a Heavenly Book is Slave Servant’s duty.” Yan Yizhen bluntly said.

“Your Highness.” Gongsun Huang tugged Su Xing’s clothes, her refined eyes stirring.

Bright Star Hu Niangzi did not say a word, but she gave a pitiable gaze to her Dear Husband, as if saying that not accepting her kindness would create boundless guilt.

If I do not go into hell, then who will.” Lu Shaqing clapped her hands together, calmly reciting a mantra.

All of the wives were flushed with excitement. Shi Yuan and the others looked on with envy. Zhang Yuqi covered her mouth, mocking herself for being unable to join in on this “love rivalry” procession because she did not obtain a Former Volume Heavenly Book.
