Hearing Xue Ying promised him without hesitation, Forefather Scarlet Flame felt his heart relaxing. At the same time, he said, “To purify a piece of Sun Star Nucleus Stone, the price is huge. If you require any treasure, I’ll try my best to pay for it! If I can’t, then I’ll let you, Xue Ying, help me.”

“No need.” Xue Ying had just started saying…

When Forefather Scarlet Flame’s expression turned sullen: “Xue Ying, I am sure how much favor you will have to owe for this endeavor. There might even be several expenses far beyond what some treasures could be worth! If I can’t do anything, I’ll rather not have the Sun Star Nucleus Stone!”

Xue Ying was startled after seeing this. He understood that powerful existences had their dignity! Forefather Scarlet Flame had sought for help without caring about his pride because of a colossal matter like cultivation. If all the treasures were paid for by Xue Ying from his pocket… then that would be greatly hurt his dignity.

“Alright alright.” Xue Ying laughed and nodded, “Since Forefather has said so, then we’ll just listen to you.”

Nevertheless, speaking about treasures…

Even though Forefather Scarlet Flame had saved up for an extended period, his foundation wasn’t as deep as Xue Ying’s. Other than the True God weapon Flying Knife, he even had precious treasures like the original copy of the upper half of “Blood Demon Scripture”, the talisman and Fifth Uncle Master’s feather. During this Opening Feast, many gave him gifts that were not cheap too. Most stage four World Deities would present him things that were worth several hundred million Deity crystals.

True Gods would naturally present even more. Like Monarch Green, Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master and Paragon Huo Cheng, they were all ranked in the top twenty of the Cosmos Deity-Demon List, so their gifts were all the more extraordinary.

Adding these up would yield a sum that was frightening!

Still, Xue Ying’s current combat power was solid–it was close to a Paragon! With how powerful he was, these treasures were merely ‘adding flowers to the brocade’, and were considered as normal proper behavior based on reciprocity. Like in the past when Xue Ying took up the responsibility as supervisor envoy, he was weaker, yet many stage four World Deities wanted to form a karmic relationship with him, sending substantial gifts to Xue Ying which he did not dare receive.

Specifically, it was because his combat power was too inadequate, receiving those gifts worth several hundred of millions of Deity crystals would be doing a huge favor to him! And now? These gifts that worth several hundred of millions were just pittance to Xue Ying! Xue Ying was willing to receive them and allow the other party to attend his feast. These actions indicated respect for them since many other World Deities did not have the qualifications to participate in this feast.

In any case, this was his Opening Feast where everyone came to congratulate him. If it was an ordinary gathering, then there was no need for others to gift him.

Furthermore, the recipient was Xue Ying. If it was some regular stage four World Deity that had yet to transcend in becoming a powerful existence, the number of powerful existences attending would few, and gifts presented would not be that valuable either.

After all, the value of gifts presented depended on the recipient too.

“Oh right, Senior Disciple Brother Hui Ming and Forefather.” Xue Ying said, “Both of you know that I’ve obtained the original copy of the upper half of “Blood Demon Scripture”.”

“Mn.” Forefather Scarlet Flame and Eldest Disciple Brother Hui Ming knew what Xue Ying was going to say when they heard this.

“Do you want to learn this “Blood Demon Scripture”?” Xue Ying asked with a chuckle, “To tell you the truth, there are two ways of cultivating this absolute art. One uses countless souls as an aide, and is extremely vicious. Those who are willing to use this method will not have great progress in the future. The second method is based on your capabilities. If you want to learn, I’ll only impart the second method to you.”

Those who had the qualifications for him to impart the “Blood DEmon Scripture” to were not many. Even if it was imparting down to them, Xue Ying forbade them from using the first method too because he wasn’t too willing to generate countless sin from his actions.

“This old man will thicken my face and learn it then.” Forefather Scarlet Flame laughed, “I can comprehend it and borrow it to gain some inspirations.”

“I’ll pass.” Senior Disciple Brother Hui Ming chuckled.

Xue Ying and Forefather Scarlet Flame looked at him with astonishment.

Not learning it?

This was an absolute art sent to his doorsteps! And he did not want to learn it?

“Hui Ming, not cultivating it doesn’t mean you can’t gain some inspirations from it.” Forefather Scarlet Flame encouraged him, “It’ll be of help for you to transcend in the future.”

“No need.” Hui Ming shook his head, “The “Blood Demon Scripture” is one of the six grand inheritances of Ancestor Devil, and is extremely savage. It isn’t appropriate for me. My current realm is also lacking that is is best if I do not have a look.”

“Ancestor Devil’s six grand inheritances? Who is Ancestor Devil?” Forefather Scarlet Flame was puzzled.

Xue Ying was startled inwardly though.
