Chapter 397: Anticipated? No Problem, Let’s Break Through!

“Another person has died!”

Within an ancient and simple courtyard, a black-haired youth dressed in a plain Taoist robe took a sip of fragrant tea and glanced at the pink hue in the sky.

What was eerie was that there was no blood rain above this small courtyard, and the sky was not the color of fire red.

“Are you still interested in this?”

“Instead of wasting time on that, consider how you might take another step forward. If you can become the direct disciple of the palace master, even the Unbeatable Emperor isn’t the limit.”

Sitting opposite the black-haired youth was a young man with golden hair shimmering all over his body, which upon closer inspection, turned out to be the transformation of a golden dragon.

“There are so many Saint Sons and Saint Daughters, everyone wants to become the direct disciple of the palace master, but over the years, the palace master has never taken any direct disciples.”

“Being an Unbeatable Emperor isn’t so bad; after all, the Unbreakable Domain is already the pinnacle of the Eternal Realm, isn’t it?”

“How come you have time to visit me today, too? Aren’t you with your concubine?”

“I heard that for her sake, you personally left the palace and even went to a killer organization?”

A flicker of odd light crossed the black-haired youth’s face; it seemed that the other’s Yuan Ding Wen Tian Jing was about to break through, and his concubine must be the Furnace Ding for his breakthrough.

When that time comes, this guy will probably become the tenth person among the group of Saint Sons and Saint Daughters to reach the level of an Unparalleled Emperor.

The Xuanming Tao Palace, high and mighty, never intervenes in the affairs of the Eternal Realm, but it can make all the mighty figures of the Eternal Realm bow in submission.

This is partly due to the strength of the Xuanming Palace Master and partly because the strength of the Eternal Emperors within the Xuanming Tao Palace surpasses those of the same level from the outside world.

Take these two, for example. Though they are only Extreme Emperors, they possess the power to slay Unparalleled Emperors.

This kind of strength is common among the Saint Sons and Saint Daughters and even those stronger than them, with the cultivation of an Extreme Emperor, are on par with the Unbeatable Emperors.

Such Saint Sons and Saint Daughters are considered the second tier.

The first tier, however, comprises those who could rival Unbeatable Emperors as Extreme Emperors and have now broken through to the Unparalleled Emperor Realm, their strength now unfathomable. Those Unbeatable Emperors from the Ascension Camp and Eternity Camp don’t even register in their eyes.

Yet, even so, in the eyes of the Xuanming Palace Master, they are merely children playing house.

This is the high and mighty Xuanming Palace Master.

The golden-haired youth only smiled and did not respond to the other’s remarks, and the black-haired youth, knowing the other’s temperament, did not mind.

Even among the Saint Sons and Saint Daughters, their relationships are competitive rather than fraternal.

After all, everyone wants to become the direct disciple of the palace master.

Besides the palace master, of course, the Xuanming Tao Palace also has other Vice Palace Masters and various Elders.

These Vice Palace Masters and Elders are all former Saint Sons and Saint Daughters, and although they are now Unbeatable Emperors, their strength is incomparable to those of the Unbeatable Emperors from the outside world.

“Miss, please don’t make it difficult for your servant.”

Meanwhile, Luo Qingcheng’s face was cold and expressionless, and standing in front of her was a young woman in green.

At that moment, the heart of the woman in green was filled with endless fear. She was originally an Inner Sect Disciple of the Xuanming Tao Palace, but she had been captured by Holy Son, Mi Tian, to serve the lady before her.

It may have been called service, yet she knew it was more about surveillance.

She had also heard about Holy Son, Mi Tian’s capricious nature before coming here, that even Inner Sect Disciples could be killed at a moment’s notice.

Before her, five serving maids of this lady had already been killed.

The problem was, those five were all Inner Sect Disciples, above level five Eternal Realm, and just like that, they were killed by someone.

The reason was that they failed to make Luo Qingcheng smile.

Luo Qingcheng did not pay attention to the woman in green, or rather, since being separated from her sister, Luo Xian’er, and taken away by Yuan, her inner world had already collapsed.

Everyone dies someday, but if it weren’t for Mi Tian using Luo Xian’er as a threat, she might have self-destructed her divine soul a long time ago.

Yes, Mi Tian told her that he would reunite her with Luo Xian’er.

She still remembered the smile he had when he first saw her at the Meta Organization; it was the same smile.

Which is to say, Luo Xian’er had also caught that guy’s attention—it was just unknown why he hadn’t made a move on her sister yet.

Meanwhile, under the guidance of Luo Xian’er, six people directly entered the headquarters world of the Meta Organization.

A world that was incomparably dark.

In this world, creatures below the Eternal Realm revealed their true appearances, while those above the Eternal Realm wore masks of different colors.

Bronze, bright silver, platinum, and colorless.

Representing Bronze Assassins, Silver Assassins, Gold-Ranked Assassins, and the King of Assassins respectively.

After storing the four beasts into the second world, Ye Feng revealed his true face, was subdued by Luo Xian’er, and brazenly whisked away toward the depths of the Meta Organization.

Along the way, many assassins of different ranks cast their eyes on Ye Feng, clearly recognizing his identity.

“Is this the guy wanted by the Ascension Camp?”

“He’s only at level three Eternal Realm, yet they sent a Gold-Ranked to deal with him, and it’s her. She once successfully assassinated an Extreme Emperor at the peak of her cultivation level.”

“Exactly, but who can blame her? After all, he consecutively tricked and killed one silver and one bronze, it seems only natural for the higher-ups to send a Gold-Ranked.”

Ye Feng took in everyone’s reactions and obediently played the part of a prisoner, and soon, the two entered a dark temple at the very depth of the world.

“Hum”

The moment they stepped into the dark temple, an invisible fluctuation swept towards them like chains, causing Luo Xian’er’s face to change.

“What do you mean by this!!”

Luo Xian’er roared angrily!

“Luo Xian, you don’t really think that I believed you had subdued him and brought him back, do you?”

“If you had brought back his corpse, perhaps I might have believed you.”

“As expected, I was not wrong about you. You have a rebellious streak, just like your sister!”

These words from Yuan instantly infuriated Luo Xian’er, who was about to strike out, but was held back by Ye Feng beside her.

“Heh, not pretending anymore?”

“He’s seen through it, no point wasting words.”

“You expected this? No worries, let’s just fight our way in.”

“I want to see for myself just how ugly this guy is, to always hide behind the scenes, his face never seen by anyone.”

“Courting death”

Yuan’s voice generated a tumultuous surge of killing intent, which, accompanied by that invisible fluctuation, rushed toward the two at great speed.

“I guessed right!”

“He really is an ugly freak!”

At the moment Ye Feng spoke, the four beasts emerged from the second world.

“Jin Ling, curse him to death!”

The next second, Ye Feng immediately sent out his capable mouthpiece.
