506 Shadows of the Never-Ending Clan! (1/2)

”A random servant?” Wang Baole froze. He stared at the corpse before him. He could sense the remnants of a Core Formation realm spirit energy exuding from the corpse. He was slightly dazed.

”Yes. Based on the layout of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, this area is the outer area that belonged to the servants. They were mostly only at the Core Formation realm. Even though some of them might have shown some potential, most were lowly servants.” Little Missy shared some brief information before urging Wang Baole to continue the search for the fragment.

Wang Baole sucked in a breath. He seemed slightly doubtful. Little Missy appeared to have sensed what Wang Baole was thinking. She became slightly unhappy and snorted.

”What, don't you believe me? I've only made that small accidental mistake with the Dark Artifact. I had a Dark Artifact that looked exactly the same in the past, so I thought it was the same one. Is it a sin to have mistaken it for my own? Is that something completely unforgivable?

”Humph! And if I say this is the area for lowly servants, then that's what it is. In fact, the so-called main Vast Expanse Dao Palace island on the Sea of Fire is but an outer sect that was built on some distant mountain range in the outer regions.

”I've already done a search when you arrived here. Even though there have been some changes, the place remained largely the same as before. The true Vast Expanse Dao Palace is located in the sword body that's pierced through the sun. That is where the true sect lies. Based on the current situation though, it's highly likely that there's nothing but ruins there now…

”However, as long as the core of the sect survives, the Vast Expanse Dao Palace will not fall. The Vast Expanse Dao Palace's core is found at the tip of the sword. If I'm not wrong, powerful cultivators at the Eternal Star and Planet realms, as well as the Star Domain realm leaders, should still be there in that region. They are likely recovering and in slumber.”

Upon hearing what Little Missy said, Wang Baole's eyes widened. Little Missy seemed to have sensed Wang Baole's feelings and noted his surprise. She was pleased. Her appearances recently had been rare because she had felt embarrassed about the Dark Artifact incident. Now that an opportunity had presented itself, she naturally wasn't going to let it slip through her fingers. She coughed, then continued with a voice that spoke of experience, saying casually.

”Surprised? There's nothing to be surprised about. In those days, this area was where ordinary folks and our servants resided. In addition, I've no impression of those people called Mie Liezi or whatnot. Based on their level of cultivation though, they likely only counted as inner sect disciples before the ancient sword entered the sun. In fact, they're likely disciples who didn't show much potential.

”However, when disaster struck, the elders at the tip of the sword went into a deep slumber, and the main sect of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace was destroyed. More than ninety percent of the sect members died or were wounded grievously. That was why the three of them had to take up the responsibilities of being elders. They had to rebuild the Dao Palace. In fact, they made a great contribution to the Dao Palace. When the elders awake, they would likely break through the Spirit Immortal realm and advance into the Planet realm!”

The news was simply too much. Wang Baole's eyes widened again. He might have been mentally prepared for something like that, but the true identities of Mie Liezi and the rest had still shocked him.

They're only inner sect disciples? Wang Baole gasped. He blinked, then suddenly asked.

”Little Missy, who are you exactly in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace?”

”Me? The Star Domain realm leader of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace has to call me elder when he wakes up and sees me. Who do you think I am?” Little Missy said casually. The expression on her face was mild.

Wang Baole was shocked once again by her words. He stared in a daze into the distance. He himself didn't know what he was looking at. After a long moment, he suddenly slapped his thigh.

”Little Missy, I'm your younger brother. Does that mean that I'm an elder here as well? I didn't even know how important I actually am. It's a pity that I doubt the intentions of Mie Liezi and gang. Else, if I told them the truth, they might just be frightened out of their lives!” In his excitement, Wang Baole took a step forward and raced towards the location where Little Missy pointed him, searching.

He realized that he had to pay more attention to Little Missy. The best thing he could do for her was to find the fragment and make her happy. Wang Baole didn't think he needed to think too much about whether there might be some falsehood in her words. Based on what he had seen, even if Little Missy had been exaggerating, what she had said wouldn't be too far from the truth.

Little Missy must be someone really, really important! Wang Baole was overwhelmed with excitement. He felt that since he had already aligned himself with Little Missy for so long, he should continue. In fact, it would be great if he could do this until he became the president.
