The luxurious golden-robed young man nodded slightly. He then stood up and disappeared.

Even though his methods were formidable, Southern Cloud King controlled the arrays of the entire capital. Hence, he was able to perceive that this cheap teacher of his had left.

‘I hadn’t thought that he would actually come back.’ Southern Cloud King frowned, ‘Truly unlucky.’

This was the first time he met his teacher.

In the past, Southern Cloud King fled like a stray dog from his enemies. But whether it was his fortune or not, he had been able to get his hands on a top-graded secret treasure, the ‘Twin Realm Blade’. That was also the reason why he could turn his fate! In reality, this top-graded secret treasure, ‘Twin Realm Blade’, had been left in an ancient remnant deliberately by his current teacher. If he wanted to acquire it, he had to first swear an oath and take the other party as a teacher!

And that oath was restrictive.

Reaching the level of Southern Cloud King, he would not encounter any danger even if he went against the oath. It would only be disobeying his Dao Heart, making it harder to improve further on the road of cultivation. But to the ambitious Southern Cloud King, he would not violate the oath until the very last moment.

‘That time, the only desire I had was to change my fortune. Furthermore, I thought he had already fallen. Who would have thought that he actually came back.’ Southern Cloud King shook his head. In the past, he was in such a desperate situation that he did not hesitate to accept an unparalleled existence as a teacher that was missing for ages.

And now, his teacher came back.

This was the first time they met. And for Southern Cloud King, firstly, he did not wish to violate the oath. Secondly, he did not wish to offend this teacher of his! After all, he had just become a Cosmos God when the other party was an overlord moving unhindered across the entire Realm Heart Great Land. He understood how frightening the other party was.

‘If I truly offended him, the entire Southern Cloud Nation, other than me, would be wiped out.’ Southern Cloud King sighed inwardly.

The presence of the other party represented death in the past!

And now, his teacher might have become stronger. Hence, Southern Cloud King would rather tolerate and endure it instead of offending his teacher at the current moment.

Flying Snow City.

Xue Ying accompanied his teacher Ying Shan Lie Hu to drink the entire night before returning to his own courtyard. He sat down cross-legged within the pavilion beside a lake. Looking at the Five Phase Beads that appeared on his wrist, he immediately sent an avatar into one of the beads.

Within the world of the Five Phase Beads.

Xue Ying appeared in midair. With a glance, he saw the cross-legged seated Devil Monarch Yan Fire amidst the vast world currently trying to expel the hex poison in his body. A night passed, and Devil Monarch Yan Fire had also expelled close to half the hex poison in his body. Nevertheless, Devil Monarch Yan Fire did not feel happy at all. Instead, his heart was heavy because he knew death had knocked on his door.

“You came.” Devil Monarch Yan Fire looked at Xue Ying.

Xue Ying chuckled. He waited for a night before coming to see Devil Monarch Yan Fire precisely because he wanted the other party to calm down.

“Devil Monarch Yan Fire, currently, there are two routes you can take.” Xue Ying stated, “The first route is for me to kill you and take away your treasures. The second route is for you to give me your treasures willingly, and I’ll send you over to the Summer Wind Ancient Nation! Even though you might be punished by the Summer Wind Ancient Nation, they would only force you to work for them. At least you could survive then.”

It wasn’t hard for Xue Ying to kill Devil Monarch Yan Fire given that he was trapped in the Five Phase Beads.

As long as both parties started fighting! Given that the Five Phase Beads completely isolated the inner space, it would block off any permeance of World Energy. Without this source of World Energy, Devil Monarch Yan Fire would slowly consume his energy and would be doomed!

“Since I have been captured by you alive, I can only work for the Summer Wind Ancient Nation. What else can I do?” Devil Monarch Yan Fire muttered with disappointment.

He did not have any other choices!

Those devils that were weaker would be killed by the six great ancient nations.

And most Cosmos Gods had practical value! Every ancient nation had a group of ‘hired thugs’ concealed in the dark. Like the Moonflower Ancient Nation and Towering Sky Ancient Nation, these weaker ancient nations took the initiative to hire some huge devils over. They did not forbid those devils; instead, they gave them freedom.

“Very good.” Xue Ying said. He casually extended his hand, sending in a strand of Cosmos God energy directly into the body of Devil Monarch Yan Fire. Devil Monarch Yan Fire did not obstruct it as well.

Xue Ying easily examined through the body of Devil Monarch Yan Fire once through.

All secret treasures that Devil Monarch Yan Fire had flown out. Devil Monarch Yan Fire did not stop.

Reaching this predicament, he knew what to do.

“You will eventually be free one day once you worked sufficiently for the Summer Wind Ancient Nation.” Xue Ying checked through. He was quite pleased with his harvests.

Because by sending a devil alive over, the Summer Wind Ancient Nation would gain an additional hired thug after restricting him! Other than gaining the respective contribution points from the mission, he would still be rewarded with cosmos crystals! This Devil Monarch Yan Fire would most likely earn him upwards of 10 billion cosmos crystals. Even though it was relatively low as compared to the value of what Devil Monarch Yan Fire could bring, it was still a set of benefits.

And to the Summer Wind Ancient Nation, they had to pay contribution points and benefits to the Honored Guests for every mission the Honored Guests completed! Some of the more powerful Honored Guests might grumble and decline to accept the mission.

But these ‘hired thugs’ were different. The ancient nation did not have to give them any benefits! They dared not disobey the orders too!

‘After roaming through the world for so many years, I finally fell in the hands of this Monarch Flying Snow.’ Devil Monarch Yan Fire sat cross-legged. Even though he felt sorrowful, he knew what he should do now.

…

Xue Ying stayed within the Flying Snow City. He no longer went hunt for other ‘preys’.

Because he was clear that capturing Devil Monarch Yan Fire alive had simply been due to his great fortune!

According to experience.

It was quite good to kill a target during the quota contest in Summer Wind Ancient Nation which was held every time the Realm Heart God Palace opens! Because ultimately, those listed targets were very tough to assassinate! If not for Xue Ying’s cunningness in stealthily inching closer to the side of the enemy using his pinnacle of void-ification, and if not for the help by Nine Venom Religion Master, and for Western Floating Old Ancestor to be slowed by a step, Xue Ying would not have succeeded.

Hence, he knew he lucked out.

Furthermore, of all targets that were listed, only ‘Devil Monarch Wind Moon’ was someone which Xue Ying’s strength curbed entirely. But Devil Monarch Wind Moon knew his weakness in his heart temperament. Hence, he chose to hide in the treasure brought by Western Floating Old Ancestor all the time! That was why most would discover that the position of Devil Monarch Wind Moon coinciding with Western Floating Old Ancestor’s position, which was how Western Floating Old Ancestor succeeded in disguising as Devil Monarch Wind Moon!
