After a Star Master died, they would indeed leave behind a Star Core. However, absorbing a Star Master's Star Core to gain power was a taboo for humans.
It was fine if no one knew about it, but if it was, they would immediately become the public enemy of the human race. Moreover, the Star Core would usually leave behind a strong obsession of the original owner. Absorbing the Star Core meant accepting the obsession of the original owner.
To a Star Master, such an obsession was very difficult to get rid of. As time passed, it would even affect one's mind. The side effects were very severe.
Therefore, a normal Star Master would definitely not think of absorbing another Star Master's Star Core. If others heard that Gao Zhengyang wanted to absorb another Star Master's Star Core, he would immediately become the public enemy.
Even the rich and noble families would do anything to gain power. However, such things could only be done in private, and they would not dare to communicate with outsiders.
After Ye Xingsha recovered from her shock, she felt sympathy for Gao Zhengyang's ignorance. This allowed her to regain her psychological advantage. Gao Zhengyang was born in a crude and lowly family, and he knew nothing about this world.
He only relied on his courage to act rashly. In the end, he killed an old Master, and even an expert like Wu Yingxian was defeated by him.
However, if he only wanted to act rashly with his martial strength, he was just a boorish man.
The Founding Father was a genius who created the Star Constellation Technique, and he was unrivaled in the world. However, what was truly praised about him was his extraordinary political wisdom. That was how he could unite all of the human race, and create a dynasty that lasted for a thousand years.
Otherwise, no matter how strong the Founding Father was, he would only be strong for a while. Since ancient times, countless invincible experts had been born. However, there was only one Founding Father.
It was obvious that martial strength was not enough. For a boorish man like Gao Zhengyang, no matter how strong he was, he would only be used as a knife. Moreover, he was only a Silver Star Master. Compared to Wu Yingxian, he was slightly inferior.
Even if Gao Zhengyang was very proud now, he would not live for long.
Ye Xingsha thought for a while, and decided to remind Gao Zhengyang, "Absorbing a Star Master's Star Core is a taboo for humans …"
After hearing Ye Xingsha's words, Gao Zhengyang nodded nonchalantly. "Oh, then do it discreetly."
Actually, Gao Zhengyang wasn't surprised by the taboo that Ye Xingsha mentioned. If everyone could hunt and kill Star Masters without any qualms, it would violate the interests of all Star Masters.
No Star Master could accept such a result. Therefore, hunting down a Star Master for his Star Nucleus was definitely a taboo. But since there was such a huge profit to be made, it was impossible that no one would do it. That was human nature.
The world was different, the laws were different, the power system was different, the social system was different, but human nature was the same.
Gao Zhengyang never looked down on others. He was very clear that he was neither a saint nor a devil. He was just an expert. He did what he wanted to do and didn't care too much about the means.
However, in the Star Demon Realm, he had to abide by the rules of the Star Demon Realm as much as possible. If he became the public enemy of the human race, it would be a little troublesome.
Gao Zhengyang was not afraid of fighting, nor was he afraid of killing. But he would not act recklessly.
Ye Xingsha saw that Gao Zhengyang had made up his mind and had no intention of stopping. She could only sigh inwardly. "A boorish man will always be a boorish man. He won't be able to accomplish great things."
But to avoid being implicated, Ye Xingsha still gave him some advice. "Scorpio City is the territory of the Ma family. The Ma family is one of the most powerful families in the capital. They are even more powerful than our family. The head of the Ma family and the emperor are childhood friends … "
After briefly explaining the situation of the Ma family, Ye Xingsha finally said, "If you anger the Ma family, all they need to do is send a note and they can summon countless experts to kill you."
"What are you afraid of? Isn't your family one of the eight great families? When the time comes, you can just stand there and see who dares to touch you! "Gao Zhengyang said.
Ye Xingsha was stunned speechless. Gao Zhengyang actually had this idea. Looking at his serious expression, it didn't seem like he was joking.
Then, Ye Xingsha lost interest in talking. That night, she tossed and turned in bed, thinking about how to get rid of the trouble that was Gao Zhengyang.
They slept on the side of the main road. At night, there were many wild beasts howling. But no wild beasts attacked Gao Zhengyang and the others.
The next morning, the group continued their journey. After walking for two days, on the afternoon of the third day, Gao Zhengyang and the others arrived at Scorpio City.
The architectural style of Scorpio City was exactly the same as Baijing City. However, it was more than ten times larger than Baijing City. Just the city gate alone was three to four meters tall.
The main road leading to the city gate was even more crowded with vehicles. Many of them were large convoys. There was even a tax collection checkpoint at the city gate.
Just looking at the pedestrians and horses passing by, it was a hundred times more prosperous than Baijing City.
Gao Zhengyang's two carriages also paid two gold coins when they entered the city. Although Gao Zhengyang wasn't familiar with the prices of goods, he knew that the fee was quite high.
Wu Yingxian used to come to Scorpio City often and was quite familiar with the place. After entering the city, she brought Gao Zhengyang and the others to a friend's house.
According to Wu Yingxian, this friend of hers was called Ma Beifang, and he was also a Silver Star Master. He was quite famous in Scorpio City.
Naturally, Gao Zhengyang didn't have any objections. Wu Yingxian was in charge of staying in a hotel or a friend's house.
He spared Wu Yingxian's life, so it was not a big deal for her to pay a favor.
When they arrived, they found that the Ma family was indeed a big family. The house looked much more magnificent than Wu Yingxian's house. The owner, Ma Beifang, welcomed them in person and seemed quite close to Wu Yingxian.
Obviously, they were indeed close.
Wu Yingxian introduced Gao Zhengyang and Ye Xingsha with great emphasis. After learning Ye Xingsha's identity, Ma Beifang smiled more brilliantly. Gao Zhengyang, on the other hand, puzzled him.
However, Gao Zhengyang seemed to be the leader of the group. Even Wu Yingxian was like that.
Ma Beifang was quite experienced. Although he didn't know what was going on, he was more respectful to Gao Zhengyang. After settling down Gao Zhengyang and Ye Xingsha, Ma Beifang dragged Wu Yingxian to the inner house.
"Where is this Gao Zhengyang from? Why haven't I heard of him before?"
Ma Beifang had a bald head and a red face. He looked like a straightforward and forthright man, and he spoke in a straightforward manner.
Wu Yingxian knew that he had a gloomy mind and was definitely not as forthright as he appeared to be. However, the two of them had been friends for decades, so he should be able to help with this matter.
Pondering for a moment, Wu Yingxian heaved a sigh. "Brother, I failed this time."
"Huh? What happened?" Ma Beifang was greatly shocked.
Wu Yingxian wanted to ask for Ma Beifang's help, so she could only tell him how she was defeated by Gao Zhengyang. In the end, she said, "At the critical moment, I could only admit defeat. So, I became his butler. "
Ma Beifang was even more surprised. The guy just now seemed to be less than thirty years old. How could he defeat Wu Yingxian so easily?
However, it was impossible for Wu Yingxian to make up such a shameful thing to fool him!
Ma Beifang immediately became angry and slapped the table, shouting, "This guy is too arrogant. Brother Wu, I'll help you vent your anger!"
Wu Yingxian's old face was full of gratitude. "Brother, thank you so much."
After a pause, he continued, "However, I can tell that Gao Zhengyang is cunning and cunning. We must be careful."
"If we join hands, he will die no matter what!"
Ma Beifang was quite confident. Gao Zhengyang only defeated Wu Yingxian by luck. It was impossible for them to lose if they joined hands.
Wu Yingxian, on the other hand, was quite calm. He said, "Don't do anything yet. Gao Zhengyang wants to learn the Seven Kill Secret Technique from Sirius. Just do him a favor and send him to Sirius. "
"Sirius is weird. Why would he teach his secret technique to an outsider?"
Ma Beifang was suddenly enlightened. He praised, "Brother Wu, that's a great move."
"You don't have to kill people by yourself."
Wu Yingxian said gloomily, "Just let Sirius kill him to vent his anger. If he kills Sirius by luck, he will definitely be injured. By then, we can deal with him easily. "
"However, what's the relationship between him and Ye Xingsha?" Ma Beifang was a little worried. As he spoke, a hint of cruelty appeared in his eyes. "Should we get rid of them together?"
"No need. Ye Xingsha is a cold and arrogant person. She will look down on Gao Zhengyang a hundred thousand times. "
Wu Yingxian said, "If we kill Gao Zhengyang, she will only feel relieved."
After a pause, he continued, "Of course, try to avoid her …"
While Wu Yingxian and Ma Beifang were planning, they didn't notice that there was a person in the shadow of the pillar. It was Gao Zhengyang.
The two of them were too malicious to Gao Zhengyang. Although Gao Zhengyang's power was restricted, he still retained some of his amazing telepathy.
In particular, when the two of them kept calling Gao Zhengyang's name, it was easier to trigger Gao Zhengyang's telepathy. This was also one of the techniques of the God King Level experts.
Gao Zhengyang had practiced the Shadow Spell for a few days and had already pushed this secret skill to another level. He quietly turned into a shadow and lurked in the room. Wu Yingxian and Ma Beifang didn't notice him at all.
After listening for a while, Gao Zhengyang lost interest. The two of them discussed for a while and even planned to poison and seduce him. As a Silver Star Master, he only knew how to play tricks. No wonder he wasn't very capable.
Of course, tricks were useful. But using tricks meant that he didn't have enough power. If he was strong enough, he could just crush his enemy without resorting to tricks.
Coming out of the room where the two of them talked, Gao Zhengyang returned to his own room. He didn't need to care about the things that Wu Yingxian and Ma Beifang discussed. He only needed to wait patiently for the news from Sirius.
It was not a whim that Gao Zhengyang wanted to practice the Seven Killing Stars Technique. It was a mysterious killing technique like the Seven Killing Stars that had a particularly strong outburst and was best at defeating the strong.
He was eager to complete Emperor Qing's task. If he practiced it step by step, he didn't know how long it would take. His Dragon Emperor Immortal Body could easily bear all the damage from this kind of secret skill with great negative effects. He could make full use of the advantages of this secret skill.
The next day, Startled Wind and a middle-aged man ran over and told Gao Zhengyang excitedly that they had found Sirius.
Gao Zhengyang didn't hesitate and left with Startled Wind and the man.
Before they arrived at the Sirius Dojo, Wu Yingxian and Ma Beifang had already booked a room in the hotel opposite the Sirius Dojo and were ready to watch the show.
The private room had a commanding view of the Sirius Dojo's martial arts field. If Gao Zhengyang wanted to fight with Sirius, he could only do it on the martial arts field.
However, the two of them watched Gao Zhengyang enter the Sirius Dojo and then fell silent.
The two of them waited for a while and didn't see Gao Zhengyang come out. They were a little confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Are you waiting for me here?" Gao Zhengyang's voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
