Chapter 702 - Another Kind of Ranking (2/2)

And right below the ten seats, there were thirty seats arranged for the Paragons. Those like Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master, Xue Ying, Monarch Destruction and some others were seated right within the section under Bloodshed God-Emperor, while Paragon Huo Cheng was sitting in the section under Primal Master.

Finally, there was a large number of powerful existences who were sitting further down.

“Xue Ying.” Bloodshed God-Emperor turned to his disciple. He looked at Xue Ying with doubt and transmitted over, “I can feel that your soul is somewhat unstable. What happened? Are you injured?”

Xue Ying felt surprised that his teacher could detect his injury. He quickly transmitted back, “It is nothing and doesn’t have a huge impact on my strength. I reckon I’ll be able to fully recover in 10,000 years.”

“Mn. Do inform me if you can’t resolve it.” After that, Bloodshed God-Emperor no longer cared about it. It was normal for his disciples to face setbacks during cultivation. He had merely asked because this injury was related to the soul. But since he disciple mentioned that he could resolve it, Bloodshed God-Emperor would naturally not intervene with it.

“Your senior disciple brother has already become a Ruler. You also need to cultivate properly. You are different from him since it doesn’t affect him greatly whether he became a Ruler or not. But for you, if you do not become a Ruler, there is no way for you to transcend from the River of Time.” Bloodshed God-Emperor transmitted over, “And I do not hope for us teacher and disciple to be part for eternity.”

“Yes, this disciple will definitely be more diligent.” Xue Ying could feel the concern his teacher had for him. Xue Ying felt touched.

Following which, along with three opening sentences by Monarch Green, the banquet began officially.

“Xue Ying.” Jing Qiu, who sat beside Xue Ying transmitted over, “Why aren’t you speaking with the other Paragons around you and are just silently drinking your wine?”

“I am thinking about certain matters.” Xue Ying felt chaotic in his heart.

He had just asked the Black Gourd treasure spirit again: “Right now, since the Myriad God Palace Head and Bloody Ruler have arrived, with the ten Rulers present, tell me according to your way of judging their combat power and give me a new updated list of ranking.”

The Black Gourd treasure spirit quickly came up with the new list.

The ranking list was as follow:

First, Bloodshed God-Emperor.

Second, Purgatory Ruler.

Third, Monarch Green.

Fourth, Primal Master.

Fifth, Bloody Ruler.

Sixth, Abyss Primogenitor.

Seventh, Pang Yi

Eighth, Myriad God Palace Head.

Ninth, Temporal Island Lord.

Tenth, Empress Qian He.

This updated list dampened the mood of Xue Ying. He no longer felt like chatting with the Paragons around him. His mind was currently filled with an influx of thoughts since this updated ranking list contradicted with the information he had.

‘Did they not mention that Bloody Ruler is very weak? And Pang Yi could easily suppress him after becoming a Ruler? Even Monarch Green could fight with Bloody Ruler on equal grounds when he was still a Paragon. But it seems that he is actually stronger than Abyss Primogenitor and the Ruler Pang Yi ?” Xue Ying felt a chill down his spine. He could not help but tremble. After Pang Yi became a Ruler, the aura from his soul was still weaker than that of Bloody Ruler!

This felt extremely abnormal!

‘I’ve heard that during the tussle for treasures previously, my teacher has been schemed by Bloody Ruler, yet Bloody Ruler was killed?” Xue Ying became all the more bewildered.

Firstly, it seemed that Bloody Ruler concealed himself too deeply.

Secondly, Purgatory Ruler and Monarch Green were both hiding deeply too. Purgatory Ruler was actually quite close to that of Bloodshed God-Emperor’s.

‘Of the three Rulers from the Abyss, I would never have thought that the publicly acknowledged stronger Abyss Primogenitor is instead the weakest of the three?’ Xue Ying thought, ‘What kind of secret is there behind this?’

He also had his secrets and concealed part of his strength. But he never had thought that the many of the Rulers were also hiding their power and covering it so deeply. Like Bloody Ruler, he did not even care that he was called the weakest. He did not care about respect. He was indeed the one with the deepest secret.

‘Empress Qian He is still the weakest among the Rulers.’ Xue Ying continued his train of thought, ‘That arrogant and treacherous Temporal Island Lord who usually acted so rampantly to his whim and fancy is actually ranked second from the back.’
