From today onwards, Sen Luo will be established!
It seemed to be announcing something, but it also seemed to be declaring something.
Then …
The black stone tablet sank slowly and finally disappeared. Even with the three rulers' cultivation base, they could not sense where the stone tablet had gone …
It was at this time that Yun Yang's silhouette came through the air and saw Dongfang Haoran and the others.
"What happened?"
Dongfang Haoran's expression was solemn as he explained, "This is extremely strange. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."
"From today onwards, Sen Luo will be established?" Yun Yang's brows furrowed slightly before relaxing. He smiled and said, "It's not a small matter indeed. But for humans, it's a good thing, a very good thing. "
"Good thing? A very good thing. "
Dongfang Haoran and the others were puzzled.
Yun Yang guffawed but did not offer any explanation. He took to the air and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"B * stard, explain clearly!" The three rulers were furious and chased after him. F * cking hell, we've always been the ones keeping others in suspense. Today, we're the ones being kept in suspense!
We can't stand it!
That stone tablet is strange. It's fine if it disappeared without a trace. Yun Yang, even if you've advanced to Saint Level, do you think you can play tricks and disappear in front of the three of us?
The three rulers were experienced masters. Although Yun Yang had reached the same level, he was too new to be able to shake off the three of them. It was a pity that he did not get any answers even when they chased him all the way to the Palace of Nine Supremes.
The scene startled everyone in the Palace of Nine Supremes. 'These three bosses have come after our boss with such murderous intent. What do they want?'
Were they planning to gather the forces of the three heavenly palaces to go against the Palace of Nine Supremes?
The Palace of Nine Supremes was developing well and its strength was formidable, but when it came to the three heavenly palaces, they could not even fight one against one, let alone three …
Faced with the three bosses' threats, promises, and torture, Yun Yang refused to comply. From the beginning to the end, he did not say a word. The three of them were fuming with rage.
"Since you don't want to talk, then don't. We'll stay in the Palace of Nine Supremes for now."
The three of them rolled their eyes at the same time.
Who were these three men? Their spiritual senses and martial senses were so sharp that they had long noticed that the spiritual Qi density in the Palace of Nine Supremes was not only higher than that of the three heavenly palaces, but it was at least ten times denser. Moreover, the atmosphere here was unusually stable, and it would not diminish just because there were too many people who cultivated tirelessly over and over again.
In terms of cultivation environment, cultivating here was much better than cultivating in the Heavenly Palace.
Although the Three Great Dwellings had reached the peak of this world, they still had the desire to improve. Cultivating in such an environment was also a great thing!
"You're not leaving?" Yun Yang asked.
"There's no hurry. We plan to stay here for three to seven years, maybe even eight to ten years. Why don't we make the Palace of Nine Supremes the command headquarters for the war between the two realms? We'll stay here for a long time and oversee the overall situation. It'll save us the trouble of having to meet each other."
Yun Yang felt a headache coming on. "Why don't I tell you what's going on? You can leave quickly after that."
It was not that Yun Yang wanted to admit defeat, but he had no choice but to lower his head when he was under someone else's roof. If these three men really decided to stay in the Palace of Nine Supremes, all their supplies and expenses would have to be provided according to the best standards – at least Ji Lingxi and Shangguan Lingxiu's standards. Although it was not enough to bankrupt the Palace of Nine Supremes, it was still a considerable expense.
Furthermore, the total amount of spiritual Qi that these three men absorbed every day was also a terrifying number. The three heavenly palaces were not the best paradise in this world, but it was largely due to the three old men's years of swallowing that the spiritual Qi was relatively low. If all three of them stayed in the Palace of Nine Supremes, even if the Palace of Nine Supremes' spiritual Qi was much better than the three heavenly palaces, there would come a day when the place would be drained. This was a truth that Yun Yang had only discovered after he had ascended to the level of a Saint. Therefore, even if he had to compromise and tell the truth, he hoped to send these three men away as soon as possible!
They were not three distinguished guests, but three vampires!
"Alright, we won't be leaving after that. Your place is very good, very good. We're very satisfied."
The three of them were unperturbed. They each went to find a quiet hut, and then they really went to live in it.
Yun Yang dared not let these three men stay for a long time. After a round of verbal sparring, they finally reached a consensus.
"We won't be staying for too long. We'll leave when the Supreme Heaven Pavilion's selection is over. All of us will leave without delay."
"You don't have to bother to entertain us either. Just treat us like family. We don't need any food or drink …"
In spite of this, the Palace of Nine Supremes' eyebrows were still twitching.
'How dare you say such things? With your cultivation base, you can go without food for tens of thousands of years. Of course, you don't need to provide anything, and we don't even plan to provide anything for you … Don't think that we didn't see your shameless faces. You're just taking advantage of us!'
'What we're really troubled about is the massive consumption of spiritual Qi caused by the addition of three high-level Saints at once. It's bound to be shared with many people.' At the very least, cultivating dozens of miles away from these three men would not have much effect, if not no effect at all.
Dong Qitian was the one who was speechless.
'These three bastards from the three residences … actually chose the back of the mountain. That's where I live, my territory.'
'I've always been the only one occupying that place. How can I cultivate when the three of you come?'
'In terms of spiritual Qi absorption, I can't even catch up to the three of you …'
'I respected these three bosses quite a bit, but now it looks like they're three bastards and gangsters!'
"From today onwards, I'll move to the front hall."
Dong Qitian told Ping Xiaoyi, "Find another place and wait until the three perverted old men leave."
Ping Xiaoyi was dumbfounded.
'You're picking on the weak, aren't you? Am I the weakest among the entire Palace of Nine Supremes' higher-ups? You're calling them perverted old men, but how much better can you be? '
Ping Xiaoyi left in grief and indignation.
'F * ck, I'd rather die than be the weakest!'
'I'm going to cultivate with all my might!'
Grief and indignation notwithstanding, he still had to move. How could he not lower his head when he was under someone else's roof? How could he not compromise when the circumstances were stronger than his?
Dong Qitian was the same, and so was Ping Xiaoyi!
"The rest of you, go out and train quickly. Don't stay at home for now."
After Yun Yang gave a few guidance on his disciples' cultivation methods and questions, he immediately ordered them to scram out of the martial world.
"How's Majordomo Qian?" Seeing that Ji Lingxi was not back yet, he knew that Qian Duoduo was not done yet.
"The integration of the four schools' fixed trade routes has been completed. Appointments and removals have been carried out twice as well. Those who are unqualified and incompetent have all been cleared out. The Palace of Nine Supremes' trade routes are now unimpeded. "
Among the peak masters, Kong Luoyue and Tie Qingcang were currently on duty, so it was Kong Luoyue who had spoken.
"Is there any movement from the Qian Family? Don't they claim to be the leader of the three aristocratic families? Why did they admit defeat just like that? "Yun Yang was surprised.
"How can there be no movement …" Kong Luoyue rolled his eyes and said, "The assassin organizations that the Qian Family hired and we've annihilated have exceeded three hundred in these few months alone!"
"We've taken advantage of the situation and sent a few peak masters to hunt down the assassin organizations in the world. There are more than a thousand and two hundred of them …"
"Until now, there are almost no assassin organizations left in the entire Bound of Universe. Many of them had already disbanded when we attacked their nests. Assassin, an officially recognized profession in the Bound of Universe, is rarely done. It's almost extinct … "
Kong Luoyue coughed and said, "Now, the loot we've obtained from annihilating the assassin organizations is piling up … Many sects, including the temples and the three heavenly palaces, are saying that we've destroyed the continent's employment environment. This can't be allowed to continue …"
Yun Yang chuckled and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"They say that the martial world has its own rules of survival. It's the martial world where good and bad people mingle, it's the martial world where bloodshed and slaughter exist. We've cleaned up the martial world forcefully and wiped out the assassins. It looks like the world is peaceful, but how can our disciples train when they go out to roam the martial world in the future? It's the martial world where there are people. There will be no fish when the water is too clear, and there will be no martial world when the martial world is too clean! "
Kong Luoyue chuckled as if he was mocking himself. "What they say makes sense. The existence of those organizations is like a link in the martial world's food chain. They're indispensable indeed. Once there's a gap in the food chain, it'll only lead to more collapses and disintegration. If not … the three heavenly palaces only need to send a few Saint-level experts to wipe them out from all directions and they'll be wiped out long ago …"
Yun Yang rolled his eyes and pursed his lips. "That's why I said all of you are honest. Is what they're saying reasonable? It's just twisted logic. How can you believe it? Let's not talk about anything else. Do you really want the few Saints to go after these assassin organizations? It'd be a miracle if they could wipe them all out. Even I don't have the confidence to kill all the assassins in the world. The profession of assassins has existed since the beginning of time. How can they be wiped out by mere humans? "
"Besides, do you think we've cleaned up the martial world just because we've moved frequently and gained a lot? Let me tell you, we're still far from it! "
"As long as you think deeper, it's not difficult to figure out that the martial world has no lack of martial artists who take risks. The fastest way to earn money is none other than robbery and murder. How can such a highly rewarding profession be wiped out? "
"Why do you think the Bound of Universe has listed assassins as a legitimate profession? It's because we've witnessed the tenacious vitality of this profession!"
"Even now, it's only because we've killed too many of them that they don't dare to show themselves for the time being. When this wind blows over, they'll still be the same. Besides, there are a few top-notch assassin organizations in the martial world with formidable abilities, especially those assassins who have ascended to legendary status. They might not be weaker than you guys. I'm sure a few of them are even stronger than you guys. They haven't even made a move yet! "
"Any profession has people who can support it. There's a saying that every profession has its own champion. There's another way to explain this saying. The champion, the pinnacle, the top expert – they're all the same!"
Yun Yang said, "We're in the limelight now. There won't be any forces that are willing to fight us to the death. Let's ignore them and do as we should."
"Boss is right. None of those legendary assassins have made a move. Soul Fall Bell, Longevity Sword, Soul Breaking Spear, Flawless Saber, and the rest are silent. "
Kong Luoyue said, "However, there has been no news of the Qian family's movements in the last ten days or so. Our men have already eaten away almost a third of their business … The Qian family is slowly showing signs of defeat, but I have a feeling that they won't be so willing to be slaughtered."
Yun Yang snorted and said, "Your concern is right. An established family like the Qian Family won't wait for death without a fight. The hired assassins on the surface are just a facade. The final showdown hasn't even begun. The so-called defeat is, of course, an illusion. The more it is so, the more we should strengthen our defenses and be cautious."
"Ask those outside to go to Qian Duoduo's side in secret. Watch the situation. The Qian Family has tens of thousands of years of history and they're a veteran Gold Celestial Luck Banner sect. How can they be easy to deal with? "
"Yes, I understand."
"The majordomo has Lingxi personally guarding over there. He can attack openly without fear, but he still has to be wary of sneak attacks. Especially when there's a sneak attack after a period of peace. "
"If there's nothing important in the sect, ask Gu Chaliang to rush over as well."
After arranging these matters, Yun Yang began to look at the disciple roster.
The disciple roster was the most troublesome thing in the Residence of Nine Supremes.
Ever since the rule was made, each peak leader had been tormented by this disciple roster. Even when the authority had been delegated to the senior disciples, they still complained incessantly.
The main reason why this name list was so intimidating was because of his son. On this name list, not only did it list the most basic information like the name, age, and gender of the sect's disciples, it also included the last disciple's cultivation level when they submitted the name list, and this time's cultivation level. This could not be falsified. Everyone had to be gathered and verified one by one.
However, this was the root of all the trouble. Often, when someone had just been registered, this person would suddenly break through when one was checking on the others …
Strictly speaking, such a situation could happen in any sect, but there was no sect that could be like the Palace of Nine Supremes, where dozens or even hundreds of people broke through in a day. Recently, especially, cultivation base breakthroughs were almost as common as having a meal. The task of reporting and recording had become a huge chore.
As a result, this responsibility was rotated among the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples. Whenever someone's name was called, almost all the disciples would look at him sympathetically.
This fellow was so pitiful to be dragged into this task again. He was so unlucky …
"The progress is not bad." Yun Yang flipped through it briefly and put it aside.
Ping Zhanyue, who was originally the leader of the Phoenix Cry Sect, rolled her eyes. Such progress is only considered not bad?
Do you know that if such results were in the original Phoenix Cry Sect, even if only one or half of them made such a leap, the entire sect would at least celebrate?
Even in their dreams, they would not have dreamed of such a wonderful thing!
"Low-level disciples … definitely won't be able to make it to the war between the two clans this time." Yun Yang told Ping Zhanyue regretfully, "There are still benefits to improving slower."
Ping Zhanyue was dumbfounded.
Then, she choked and coughed violently.
Head Venerate, your focus isn't right!
This is slow!
This is slow!
Do you want others to live?
Every single one of these low-level disciples you speak of has the ability to become a leader or an elder in other lower-class sects as long as they're released!
I don't have anything in common with you!
…
It was only when everyone had left that Yun Yang finally stretched his back.
"Finally, it's alright."
For a moment, he actually felt his whole body relax, and it was a very relaxing feeling.
He had been careful and cautious with every step he took. He also had to bear the weight of a large sect at all times. The pressure was immense.
Moreover, there was the Demon Race's seal and the restriction of his powers …
Now that the seal was gone and the sect was strengthened, its ability growing by leaps and bounds, reaching the pinnacle of the world … In another half a year, the Palace of Nine Supremes' ability would probably be no weaker than the three heavenly palaces.
Thinking of this, Yun Yang stroked his chin and suddenly remembered, "Hmm, now that my ability has reached this level, I'll need to send someone to the Bloody Soul Mountain to guard a foothold … I'll have to discuss with the three Dongfang Tribesmen then …"
It was not a big deal. He could indeed breathe a sigh of relief.
Even Shangguan Lingxiu, who was by his side, could clearly feel that Yun Yang had truly breathed a sigh of relief.
For a moment, she could not help but exclaim, "You can finally rest."
She had watched Yun Yang carry the mountain-like pressure from the Tianxuan Continent all the way to the Bound of Universe. Seeing that Yun Yang could finally relax a little today, she could not help reminiscing about the past, feeling an inexplicable ache in her heart.
It had not been easy for her man!
Yun Yang laughed and said, "I'm suddenly relaxed. Even with my current cultivation base, I still feel like I'm in a trance … It's strange …"
Shangguan Lingxiu held his hand tenderly and said softly, "You're just too tired. You've been tensed up all this time. It's not strange that you'll collapse from the sudden relaxation. Rest well and you'll recover naturally."
Yun Yang nodded and wrapped his arm around her slender waist gently. Sniffing the fragrance of her hair, he closed his eyes and said, "It's time for a few days of rest …"
In the following days, Yun Yang did not go out anymore. He did not even cultivate or cultivate.
He could faintly feel that there was an inexplicable force that was searching for him in a very special way. Even when he did not move, even when his body and mind were relaxed and in a state that was barely discernible, the force was still rushing towards the Residence of Nine Supremes.
It was rushing towards him in a cheerful manner like a reunion between old friends.
Yun Yang frowned.
Yun Yang knew the source of the force very well, so he immediately released his divine sense to stop it.
"Go do what you have to do first … With your current strength, it's not enough to hide from the world yet … Stabilize yourselves first and do what you have to do."
"I'll go look for you all once I'm done here."
Yun Yang had no ill intentions, but he dared not guarantee anything with the three sovereigns here. Therefore, he quickly persuaded them to leave.
The strange force disappeared immediately. It was very amenable to persuasion. Although it left rather reluctantly …
…
Feng Lingtian said:
From the middle to the later stages of the book, he was unwilling to divide the chapters; it was too troublesome. In the early stages, the plot was clear, with a few chapters for one thing and clear organization. The further into the middle, the more things came. It was fragmented, and the chapter names were difficult to come up with … Everyone had to make do with it. Yes, it's easy to start but difficult to finish. There are millions of readers, and everyone has their own desires and opinions. I'll try my best to write this ending so that no one will have any regrets.
