Chapter 627: Emissary

Translator: Radiant Translations Editor: Radiant Translations

After meeting his teacher, Abyss Primogenitor, and Temporal Island Lord, Xue Ying went back to the Black Fog Sea to continue his closed-door cultivation. He was clear that he should try and transcend first.

After comprehending the complete ‘law of the world’, he was not in a rush to transform his inner world, or to promote his true deity heart, or to escape from the River of Time. Instead, he would enter the ‘Starting Ground’ as a stage four World Deity. As long as he did not use any combat techniques utilizing the ‘complete law of the world’, and if he did not mention it, who would know that he had transcended?

It was a standard way of doing things.

Day passed by day.

“Master.” A voice resounded in the underground palace.

Xue Ying who was seated cross-legged in the palace hall opened his eyes. His eyes had many deity imprints vaguely revolving within. They then concealed themselves, turning into nothingness before Xue Ying spoke, “What’s the matter?”

“There’s a guest who wants to meet Master. This guest is quite domineering.” The array spirit added.

“Domineering? Where is he from?” Xue Ying asked.

“He is an emissary under His Highness Water Devil King.” The array spirit explained, “Saying that he is here under an order, and asking Master to hurry and meet him.”

Xue Ying frowned after hearing it.

Water Devil King?

Ranked 13th on the Cosmos Deity-Demon List!

One had to know that adding up the mysterious Pang Yi and the eight Rulers, they had taken up the top 9 positions on the Cosmos Deity-Demon List. As for those who were not Rulers yet could fight against Rulers, they included just two–’Monarch Green’ and ‘Great Destruction Heavenly Emperor’. This added up to a total of 11.

Water Devil King was ranked 13th, signifying how powerful he was! He was ranked even higher than Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master, Paragon Huo Cheng, and White Sovereign King.

“This Water Devil King isn’t someone to offend.” Xue Ying thought.

Water Devil King comprehended two Daos and had reached perfection in both. Fusing the two Daos together gave Water Devil King a heaven-shattering combat power. He was someone brutal and ruthless, and even the Rulers could not kill him.

In fact, the few Paragons ranked in the forefront had the certainty of surviving against Rulers.

Like Monarch Green and Great Destruction Heavenly Emperor, nothing had to be said for them. As for those on the second tier–Monarch Hex Cricket, Water Devil King, and White Sovereign King–they were Paragons who dared to challenge Rulers. Amongst which, Monarch Hex Cricket was the most friendly one. White Sovereign King, though, was cunning and scheming, yet he was relatively polite on the surface. Only Water Devil King had a peevish temperament. Even though he was an expert from the Deity world, he had this monicker, ‘Devil King’, showing his temperament.

He was strong and had grasped two strange Daos. Ordinary Rulers had a hard time dealing with him, causing him to become arrogant.

Because of how unbridled he was, he had eventually offended the ancient Primal Master. Primal Master was angry, yet he could not directly kill him. Thus, he decided to imprison Water Devil King for a total of 300 billion years! He made Water Devil King live forever in a little prison as big as a ‘water droplet’! After 300 billion years, the kind-hearted Primal Master decided to let him go, “Cultivate properly. Become a Ruler soon. If you were to be deranged and tyrannical again, I’d lock you until the Cosmos Great Apocalypse, allowing you to die along with the Cosmos!”

After experiencing that, Water Devil King had become much lowkey. At least, he remained respectful in front of Rulers.

“He sent an emissary over?” Xue Ying felt puzzled. But he still left the underground palace.

…

Within the guest hall, Xue Ying sat on the throne while his subordinate personal guards led the emissary in.

“Emissary, please.” The personal guard had personally brought him along to the guest hall, “Monarch is currently in the guest hall.”

This emissary soon entered the guest hall.

Within the guest hall, other than Xue Ying who was seated above, there were several other female attendants.

“Please have a seat.” Xue Ying said.

The emissary bowed before sitting down calmly. The female attendants naturally brought up the fruits, delicacies and good wine. This emissary had a bestial appearance. He had two sharp erected ears and a cat face. He sat there ramrod straight, emitting an aura that was of a stage three World Deity realm.

“Monarch, I am here under the orders of the great Water Devil King.” The emissary said.

Xue Ying laughed, “The Water Devil King rarely comes out nowadays. Is he cultivating in closed doors?”

“The magnificent Water Devil King is single-mindedly cultivating. Naturally, he wants to break through and become a Ruler.” The emissary said boldly, “This time, I came under orders because the magnificent Water Devil King requires several treasures for some testing purposes.”

“Treasures?” Xue Ying felt his heart moving.

“The Water Devil King requires a Sun Stone Nucleus Stone. Hearing that you, Monarch Dong Bo, has a piece.” The emissary responded, “He decided to come and ask for your help.”

Xue Ying frowned slightly.

Sun Star Nucleus Stone?

This Sun Star Nucleus Stone was indeed very valuable. Being a material that originated from the core of the Sun Star’s ‘Sun Nucleus’, other than using it to cultivate on the Sun Star, it was also a rare material! It could be used for refining weapons, researching flames and other purposes. Even the Ancestor Mother Religion desired the Sun Star Nucleus Stone very much, and they had ways of sensing it from afar. That was why it made Bamboo Saint act.

In most cases, nobody would broadcast they had a Sun Star Nucleus Stone.

Those who dared do so were usually Paragons.

Xue Ying was one of the weaker ones amongst those who publicized it, though he had a solid backing.
