Chapter 1294 - Retaliation (1/2)

‘There are two issues regarding using my treasures to exchange for items!’

‘Scriptures at the middle stage God Emperor level are usually the core inheritance of a huge sect. They would not easily spread it to outsiders! So the first issue is for me to bring out treasures of sufficient value such that they are willing to make this an exceptional case. After eliminating God Emperor Bu Ya and God Emperor Wind Tiger, I have sufficient treasures to achieve this.’ Xue Ying thought. Treasures worth more than 1,000 pieces of Chaotic Origin Crystal Jades could most likely be traded for two middle stage God Emperor scriptures.

‘The second issue is: once I show my intention to trade, even a fool knows that I own sufficient treasures.’ Xue Ying murmured inwardly, ‘It is highly possible for a robbery to happen.’

If he was a famous God Emperor, the other party might not easily move against him.

But killing a God Monarch and snatch his treasures away?

That was a huge allure!

‘Hmph! I can exchange my treasures for theirs, but I have to do it quick and leave at the first moment! If an expert caught me before I leave, then I can only count on his misfortune.’ Xue Ying thought. There were many terrifying existences in this Divine Realm that Xue Ying could not handle, though those existences would usually show disdain for what Xue Ying had.

‘Let’s do this then!’ Xue Ying made his decision as he enjoyed his meal in this pub.

Early the next day.

A man garbed in moon-white robe carrying a divine sword came to one of the biggest and most luxurious cities, ‘Cloudy Sunlight City’. He arrived outside the entrance of a huge palace floating in midair, the ‘Cloudy Sunlight Palace’.

There were a total of two Ascendant Dao of Void middle stage God Emperor scriptures. Even though they were circulating in public, only huge sects had the capability to keep the original copies! The information that Xue Ying collected previously naturally pointed out where these scriptures were located. After going through some filtering and selection, Xue Ying chose to visit the Cloudy Sunlight Palace as his first destination.

Cloudy Sunlight City, Cloudy Sunlight Palace. This was a famous place across the entire Divine Realm. Even though Cloudy Sunlight Palace Master was only a middle stage God Emperor, rumors spoke of Cloudy Sunlight Palace Master being one of the madams of a Chaotic Origin Ancestral God––the one who started one of the three great royal clans, ‘Golden Sacred Clan’! Given her identity, it was natural for Cloudy Sunlight Palace Master’s status to be transcendental.

‘Hearsay this Cloudy Sunlight Palace Master hated killing the most. In her palace, nobody would dare to kill me and snatch my treasures away. As for leaving the palace? It is fine for me to slip away as fast as possible.’ Xue Ying thought.

“Sou.”

Xue Ying flew to the main entrance of the Cloudy Sunlight Palace. A group of female protectors stood before the Cloudy Sunlight Palace. When Xue Ying came, they turned their gazes towards him, causing Xue Ying to stop obediently. He bowed: “This one is called God Monarch Cool Breeze, an Ascendant who cultivates the Dao of Void. I came especially to Cloudy Sunlight Palace and is willing to present three Ember Mist Flowers for a glimpse of the Ascendant cultivation scripture <Heaven and Earth>.”

“Present three Ember Mist Flowers?” These female protectors hesitated. One of them said: “Wait here momentarily. I’ll report this upwards.”

Even though he planned on exchanging for a chance to study the scripture, he could not say it so directly and upfront.

Experts had their reputation to keep.

“You are God Monarch Cool Breeze?” After the time taken to brew a cup of tea, an old granny came out. She emitted an aura at the early stage God Emperor level. After all, the Cloudy Sunlight Palace was a famous place in the entire Divine Realm. Even though the Palace Master was slightly weak, they had an abundance of experts. Just the God Emperors in this palace numbered more than a hundred!

“Yes.” Xue Ying acknowledged. He positioned himself as a devout Ascendant seeking only for the Dao.

“Come with me.” The old granny turned around and entered the palace.

Xue Ying felt joy sprouting in his heart. He hurriedly followed behind.

“Remember, you must not wander off in the Cloudy Sunlight Palace. Always follow behind me.” The old granny swept her gaze across Xue Ying.

“Yes, yes.” Xue Ying obediently acknowledged.

“Hearsay you are willing to present three Ember Mist Flowers just for a chance to read the <Heaven and Earth> scripture?” The old granny asked.

“We Ascendants do not have any bloodlines belonging to the Chaotic Origin Ancestral Gods. Cultivation is hard for us. Even though I have always wished to acquire the scripture of my predecessor, I was too weak and poor. Fortunately, I discovered three stalks of Ember Mist Flowers in the Great Wilderness not too long ago. Which is why I dared to come here to present them for a chance to read the scripture.” Xue Ying said.

The old granny nodded after hearing that: “Even though all you Ascendants have high comprehension abilities, you guys do not have any bloodlines at all. Hence, few could reach the God Emperor realm. Seeing that you are willing to present three Ember Mist Flowers as a gift, it shows that you are sincere. My Vice-Palace Master who was made known about this matter has agreed to your request. After gaining the scripture, your chance of breaking through to the God Emperor Realm might perhaps be significantly boosted.”
