Chapter 259: Daughter of the Celestial God Clan
Chapter 259: Daughter of the Celestial God Clan
Whoosh—
Leng Li transformed into a streak of light, fleeing as if escaping, and dove into the ancient prison-suppressing tower.
In the Styx World, amidst the bone-chilling cold, she covered her burning cheeks with her hands. She was as beautiful as a flower, like a mandala blooming seductively on the other shore of the Styx River.
For some reason, her heart hammered violently in her chest, as if it were about to leap out of her throat.
Her body temperature continued to rise, and in this cold, frozen Realm, she still felt an indescribable heat.
Recalling Qin Xuan's actions in front of everyone, she couldn't help but feel annoyed and humiliated, grinding her teeth in hatred: "This guy is truly as thick-skinned as a city wall!"
"If I weren't living under someone else's roof, for this act of impropriety alone, I would definitely smash his skull to pieces!"
"He has the audacity!"
"..."
After cursing countless times, the agitation in Leng Li's heart finally began to subside.
Looking at the styx purple ice crystal before her, her emotions gradually calmed.
Like entering a water curtain, she naturally merged into the interior of the styx purple ice crystal.
Cursing was one thing, but she still had to Cultivate!
The situation was urgent and imminent.
She had to become stronger!
Qin Xuan's current enemies were becoming stronger and stronger.
If she were only at the Early Stage of the Quasi-Emperor Realm, she wouldn't be able to provide much help.
Especially now, with the Alchemist Emperor, Mo Qiangu, captured by Qin Xuan, if they were to return to the Ziyang Empire in the future, the Great Emperor Ziyang would surely strike personally to kill him!
She had to, within a very short time, use the styx purple ice crystal to successfully master the Legacy of the Nether River Blood Scripture so that she would have the strength to fight these supreme experts.
Of course, she didn't want to protect Qin Xuan; it was just that now she and Qin Xuan were in the same boat, like grasshoppers on the same rope—if he prospered, she prospered; if he suffered, she suffered.
She was just cultivating and getting stronger to protect herself!
Leng Li comforted herself in her heart like this.
Only then could she stop the scene of Qin Xuan kissing her from making her soul tremble!
—
Underworld Kings Mansion, residence of the Royal Master.
Qin Xuan and Elder Yu Jue sat opposite each other, while Qing Ning, dressed in a green skirt, poured tea on the side and served it to them.
Elder Yu Jue, like a cow chewing peonies, picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp, getting straight to the point: "Godfather, if you have any orders, just say them. Everyone in Hidden Kill will obey."
She knew Leng Li's personality better than anyone.
In the past, if anyone dared to tease her privately, she would kill them.
Not to mention being molested in public.
Qin Xuan had kissed Leng Li, and Leng Li seemed unwilling to face it, and even more unwilling to be hostile, fleeing to who knew where.
Didn't this amount to tacitly accepting Qin Xuan's impropriety?
Perhaps, in Leng Li's heart, Qin Xuan's status was far higher than she knew.
Calling him Godfather would just be a matter of time.
The reason she founded Hidden Kill was to provide some help to Leng Li one day.
Even if it was just a little, she would feel that her life in this world had meaning.
Now, even Leng Li had stated that Qin Xuan's words were the same as her own.
Elder Yu Jue regarded Leng Li's words as imperial decrees, so how could she have any objections?
Whatever Qin Xuan said, Elder Yu Jue dared not disobey.
"Tell me about the situation of your Hidden Kill. How many people are there, where are they distributed, and what are their cultivation levels?"
Qin Xuan tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, emphasizing, "The more detailed, the better."
As the founder of Hidden Kill, Elder Yu Jue's authority and core information were far more detailed than those of Scarlet Thorn.
She spoke without reservation: "Within Hidden Kill, there were originally thirteen people in the Saint Realm. Counting those who perished and those who recently broke through, there are ten left. There are over a hundred people in the Quasi-Saint Realm, and thirteen thousand seven hundred and sixty-nine people in the Heavenly Human Realm and below."
"Everyone has received the grace of the Godmother, either openly or secretly, and they regard the Godmother as their second parent and spiritual pillar."
"Such a large group of people requires a huge amount for cultivation and daily expenses, and I don't know how to make money at all. The Godmother only taught me how to kill, so the entire Hidden Kill makes a living by accepting bounty orders."
"The vast majority of people are hiding in the Mingyue Dynasty and the Ziyang Empire, and a small portion are hiding among various races. As long as there is a need for killing anywhere, Hidden Kill will definitely know the details at the first opportunity."
"Of course, killing is our main business, and in our spare time, we are also responsible for selling intelligence!"
Elder Yu Jue, in order to expand the business, had killing as a secondary focus and selling intelligence as a primary one.
The vast Hidden Kill was hard to support alone.
She could only obtain resources for Hidden Kill's cultivation and strengthening through these simplest channels.
Hearing this, Qin Xuan became interested.
He looked down on the killing business of Hidden Kill.
The strongest in Hidden Kill was Elder Yu Jue, only at the Peak of the Saint Realm, while his current enemies included even Emperors.
They couldn't help at all.
But the information about selling intelligence was exactly what he wanted.
"So, Hidden Kill is quite knowledgeable about intelligence from all over the place, right?"
Qin Xuan said with a smile, playfully, "Then let me test you. Who was that handsome young man who appeared in the Miaoyin Pavilion earlier?"
Elder Yu Jue asked subconsciously, "Is Godfather talking about Luo Xianxian?"
"You know her?"
"Naturally, I know her."
Elder Yu Jue nodded without hesitation, "These days, she has been following Scarlet Thorn like a stalker. Hidden Kill has three Elders secretly protecting Scarlet Thorn."
"That Luo Xianxian is the daughter of the Celestial God Clan. She came to the Mingyue Dynasty this time for the 'Moon Rising Over the Sea' scroll in Scarlet Thorn's hands."
"This item is a treasure of the Celestial God Clan lost in the Land of Fallen Emperors. It is not of vital importance, but rumor has it that Luo Xianxian loves to tinker with strange and peculiar things and is most obsessed with refining Treasure Artifacts. Perhaps this 'Moon Rising Over the Sea' scroll has a miraculous effect on her refining of Treasure Artifacts, which is why she is so persistent."
"However, Godfather need not worry. Although the Celestial God Clan is powerful, they will not do anything to harm the interests of others. The Celestial God Clan is most just. Even though they possess extraordinary strength, for tens of thousands of years, they have remained in one corner and have never competed with the outside world."
"I think Luo Xianxian will not do anything to harm Scarlet Thorn."
Qin Xuan did not expect that his casual question would be answered fluently by Elder Yu Jue.
Even Luo Xianxian's background was understood so thoroughly.
It was a pleasant surprise.
Qin Xuan wanted to have a concrete concept and asked, "Is the Celestial God Clan very strong? Compared to the Mingyue Dynasty and the Ziyang Imperial Family, who is stronger and who is weaker?"
Elder Yu Jue frowned and thought for a while, "They should be no less than the Mingyue Dynasty and the Ziyang Imperial Family. When the Great Emperor Ziyang was young, he suffered a loss at the Celestial God Clan and was expelled from the Celestial God Clan's land, never to enter again."
"Given the Great Emperor Ziyang's personality, after he attained the Emperor Realm, his past enemies were all wiped out, but the Celestial God Clan still stands to this day and has always been at peace. It seems that the Great Emperor Ziyang has no confidence in being able to destroy the Celestial God Clan."
"Oh, by the way, the most famous thing about the Celestial God Clan is the God Ruins, which opens irregularly. The Great Emperor Ziyang suffered a loss in the God Ruins back then!"
"According to rumors, in the God Ruins, there is a great secret of this world! Enough to overturn the sun and moon!"
Qin Xuan narrowed his eyes.
The God Ruins?
Even the Great Emperor Ziyang couldn't destroy the Celestial God Clan?
In this way, Luo Xianxian's background is truly Heaven-Defying.
Even compared to Zhou Chen, the Child of Luck, and the Crown Prince of the Ziyang Empire, she is not at a disadvantage at all.
What puzzles him most is that the Celestial God Clan is clearly amazingly strong, yet they honestly remain in one corner.
This is contrary to common sense, being a good person to an incredible degree.
Is the Celestial God Clan secretly eroding the two huge kingdoms of the Mingyue Dynasty and the Ziyang Empire, or is there another hidden story?
Qin Xuan could not think of a conclusion, so he put it behind him.
When he sees Luo Xianxian, he will ask to understand.
He took out a Storage Ring, placed it on the table, and pushed it to Elder Yu Jue, "This is the resource for your Hidden Kill to improve its strength."
Elder Yu Jue inspected the massive amount of Medicinal Pill stored inside the Storage Ring, and her beautiful eyes suddenly shook.
She looked up at Qin Xuan and shook her head hurriedly, "Godfather, this is too... too precious! Even if we sell the entire Hidden Kill, it wouldn't be worth so many Medicinal Pill!"
Inside the small Storage Ring, just the Heaven And Earth Treasure and Medicinal Pill to supply the Heavenly Human Realm to break through to the Quasi-Saint Realm exceeded ten thousand portions.
Among them, there were even Nine-Turn Golden Cores that could play a big role in the promotion of the Saint Realm!
She even saw a Nirvana Pill.
It was a great medicine that could allow her, a Peak Saint Realm expert, to undergo Nirvana again and successfully promote to the Saint King Realm.
Such an astonishing number of Medicinal Pill and resources, even looking at any Quasi-Emperor in the Mingyue Dynasty and the Ziyang Empire, there is no one who can take it out.
"It's fine, improving strength also adds a bit of ability for self-preservation."
Qin Xuan didn't care about the cost of these resources at all.
Anyway, they weren't his.
They were all refined by the Alchemist Emperor, Mo Qiangu, to help the Third Prince recruit guests.
Now, they all belong to him.
These Medicinal Pill seem precious, but they have significant drawbacks.
After taking them, it will cause an unstable Foundation.
He doesn't use them himself, so it's better to use them to nourish Hidden Kill.
"These are just the first batch of cultivation resources provided to you. There will be more later. As long as there is merit, don't worry about not being able to promote to the Saint King Realm!"
A Saint King who relies on pills might not be able to beat a Saint King who Cultivates steadily and would be easily slaughtered.
But in the final analysis, that is also a Saint King, a Realm that countless people cannot glimpse in their entire lives.
If you want the horse to run, you must let the horse eat grass.
With the Alchemist Emperor, Mo Qiangu, who is worth a pill production line, there is no fear of insufficient subsequent supply of pills.
Squeeze and squeeze, there will always be some.
His gaze became serious, staring at Elder Yu Jue, and he said, "From now on, I hope that the people of Hidden Kill will be everywhere. I want you to be able to provide me with any information I want at the first time."
"Whether it is the royal relatives of the Ziyang Empire, the great forces like the Yaochi Sacred Land, or the Mingyue Dynasty, I don't care what method you use, you must infiltrate!"
Knowing yourself and the enemy is the key to winning every battle.
The game is information warfare.
If you can beat them, smash them to death on the spot; if you can't, find a way to circumvent them and smash them to death later.
Elder Yu Jue clenched the Storage Ring filled with Heaven And Earth Treasure and Medicinal Pill, her gaze intense, and said, "Hidden Kill is already hidden everywhere, but our status is a little low. As long as we can improve our strength, we will definitely be able to climb higher in our respective situations. What Godfather said, daughter will keep in mind, and will never live up to Godfather's great expectations!"
Let alone Qin Xuan taking out such massive resources.
Even if he didn't take a penny and let their Hidden Kill supply Qin Xuan for cultivation, she wouldn't say a word of dissent and would just do it obediently!
Qin Xuan waved his hand, gave some more instructions, and sent her away, "Go and order it down."
Elder Yu Jue replied and disappeared on the spot.
In the room, only Qin Xuan and Qing Ning were left.
"Young Master, infiltrating the Ziyang Empire is understandable, but now, we are in the Mingyue Dynasty, and you are inquiring about news here. If Empress Mingyue finds out, wouldn't it be bad?"
Qing Ning bent over, pouring tea for Qin Xuan, her bust full, and said with a worried look, "If Empress Mingyue thinks that Young Master has ulterior motives, I am afraid she will be dissatisfied."
She didn't think there was anything wrong with what Qin Xuan did.
She was just worried that this would make some people unhappy.
Especially after learning from Zhou Chen that Young Master had a conflict with the Aristocratic Families of the Mingyue Dynasty and even the royal relatives in the Xuanzheng Hall today.
I heard that it also made King Weiwu lose face.
She was afraid that Empress Mingyue would use this to make trouble.
"It doesn't matter, I have my own considerations."
Qin Xuan didn't take it to heart.
In this day and age, it is better to rely on yourself than others.
He is only staying in the Mingyue Dynasty for a while to recuperate. How could he stay under someone else's roof forever?
Besides, more information is not a bad thing for Empress Mingyue.
He wouldn't be stupid enough to mess with a Daughter of Luck in the Emperor Realm.
Seeing Qing Ning's worried look, Qin Xuan grabbed her small hand, caressed her smooth palm, and said with a smile, "Why, do you have something on your mind that you are unwilling to tell me? Are you planning to discuss it with someone else?"
"It's not really a concern, it's just that when I went out earlier, I met Mu Qingxue."
Qing Ning paused and continued, "Mu Qingxue informed me that the Saintess of Yaochi, Su Youyu, is currently imprisoned in a dungeon by Empress Mingyue. She hopes that you, Young Master, can step forward and rescue her."
Su Youyu, imprisoned by Empress Mingyue?
Clearly, he heard every word clearly, but how could he not understand when they were put together?
Isn't Su Youyu the sixth of the Seven Pearls of Mingyue?
This young lady is the most cautious, and she shouldn't be causing trouble for herself.
How come she didn't have any problems in the Yaochi Sacred Land, but instead, after returning to her family, she was imprisoned by her sworn sister?
Qing Ning shook her head and just relayed, "It is said that it is because the Empress learned that she revealed royal secrets and became a spy for the Mingyue Dynasty, so she was furious!"
"A spy?"
As Qin Xuan murmured with a smile, a true phoenix feather suddenly floated out of his arms, hovering not far in front of Qin Xuan, gradually turning into a vortex passage.
"Speak of the devil and he appears. I want to see what information this Su Youyu has actually revealed."
Qin Xuan did not expect such a coincidence.
When talking about Su Youyu, the latter used the true phoenix feather.
Turning his head to give Qing Ning two instructions, he stepped forward and stepped into the vortex passage without looking back.
