Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 387 Kill!!! (Majorly revised)

Xiao Li and his group walked on the streets of the Supreme Yang Continent. This Supreme Yang Continent was incredibly vast, probably equivalent to a small lower plane.

However, although the Supreme Yang Continent is vast, it is not too bad for a Supreme-level being.

Throughout the journey, Xiao Li's face remained gloomy for some reason, a sight that instilled fear in everyone. They felt that Xiao Li was terrifying.

Zi Yan hugged Xiao Li's arm: "Xiao Li, what's wrong? Why do you have such a long face?"

Xiao Li looked at Zi Yan and shook his head: "I don't know. I just feel uneasy, as if something has happened. This feeling is very strange. Please forgive me, everyone, I may have been in a bad mood lately."

"Devourer, don't fool around in front of me lately. I'm in a bad mood and might just punch you."

"No, absolutely not."

Looking at Xiao Li's gloomy face, the Devouring Lord was almost hiding behind the Rune Ancestor. It was the first time he had ever seen Xiao Li with such a terrifying expression.

Even the usually carefree Ying Huanhuan and Lin Qingtan hid behind Lin Dong, feeling that Xiao Li was terrifying now.

Xiao Li stroked his chin, feeling uneasy as if something important had gone wrong.

"Have you heard? The Tianbao Chamber of Commerce is holding a high-end auction in a month!"

"A high-level auction? Are you kidding me? It's said that high-level auctions might only be held once every few decades, and the items in high-level auctions are basically auctioned off to beings of the Supreme level or above."

Each transaction requires at least hundreds of thousands of Supreme Spirit Liquids, and it's said that the final item at a high-level auction never falls below five million Supreme Spirit Liquids, with some even reaching tens of millions.

"Oh? Really? Then I'll have to go and take a look. Even if I can't buy anything, it'll be good to broaden my horizons."

"Absolutely! Absolutely!"

"I have inside information. It's said that the final item in this high-level auction will be useful even to Earthly Sovereigns. An Earthly Sovereign-level item will cost at least tens of millions of Supreme Spirit Liquid."

"Really? Then I'm looking forward to it. What kind of treasure could be useful to such a group of supreme old monsters?"

Xiao Li and his group also heard these discussions.

Fu Zu looked at Xiao Li: "Are you going to the auction?"

Xiao Li nodded, but didn't speak. He didn't know why he was in a bad mood, so he didn't want to talk.

Lin Dong said, "But we don't have any Supreme Spirit Liquid. We still have a month to prepare. It seems we need to earn enough Supreme Spirit Liquid within a month."

The talisman ancestor nodded: "Then let's each earn the Supreme Spirit Liquid."

Zi Yan looked at Xiao Li: "Xiao Li, how are we going to earn Supreme Spirit Liquid? You don't have any medicinal herbs, and you're not familiar with the herbs of the Great Thousand World. How are you going to refine pills?"

Xiao Li looked into the distance: "Go to the Blood Blade Hall. The Blood Blade Hall is an assassin's place. They have a series of wanted posters. If you kill the wanted experts on the posters, you can get the corresponding Supreme Spirit Liquid."

Zi Yan frowned: "There's such a force?"

Xiao Li nodded: "There are quite a few such forces. As long as you can afford the Supreme Spirit Liquid, you can issue a bounty. There will always be powerful people who want to earn the Supreme Spirit Liquid."

"Didn't those wanted criminals ever consider destroying the Blood Blade Hall?"

Xiao Li shook his head: "Even if Blood Blade Hall is gone, other forces will take its place. Such forces will not be wiped out, and the master of Blood Blade Hall is not someone to be trifled with."

Although his cultivation level is only that of a Lower Earthly Sovereign, he ranks among the top three Lower Earthly Sovereigns on the Supreme Yang Continent. It's said he also has some mysterious background; the Great Thousand World is a very complex place.

Zi Yan nodded: "As expected, the Upper Realm is not simple. I'm getting more and more excited to see what will happen next."

The Tianbao Chamber of Commerce's goods section was filled with a dazzling array of merchandise, but one item in particular caught the eye: a specially made cage inside which lay a stunningly beautiful young woman.

The girl's hands and feet were pinned by spirit nails. These spirit nails were specially made by the Great Thousand World to deal with experts at the Supreme Realm. Those whose cultivation level did not exceed the fifth grade Supreme Realm could not break free.

At this moment, the girl with her eyes closed suddenly opened them, her eyes filled with light. Then, the spirit nails on her hands and feet were suddenly covered by a cold aura and then shattered inch by inch.

You want to sell me? Don't you even know who you are? You think you're so powerful, catching me when I was at my weakest during my spiritual energy conversion? If I hadn't been injured, would you still have dared to catch me? Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Being caught is embarrassing enough.

Now it's going to be auctioned off! But I actually have this kind of physique? Didn't Father notice it back then? Or is this kind of physique only described in this vast world? Never mind, I'm running away!

Xiao Xue broke free from the shackles of the spirit nails, her spiritual energy recovered, and then she looked at the special cage in front of her, her mind filled with thoughts for a long time.

"We could indeed open it by blasting it open with all our might, but the commotion would be too great. It's said that the Heavenly Treasure Merchant Guild has a Supreme Being, who seems even stronger than Father. No, no, no, Father is the strongest, he just hasn't had enough time to cultivate. Give me time, and I can surpass him too! How about this?"

Click click

Xiao Xue lay there, her entire body instantly frozen, like a lifeless ice sculpture. This state indeed alarmed the guards, and several first-rank supreme guards immediately came to check on her.

"What happened? What happened to her? How did she turn into an ice sculpture? And there are cracks in it, she looks completely lifeless. Is she dead?"

"We don't know? Should we open it and take a look? If she's dead, we're finished! The guild leader said that this woman is a cash cow, and she can even sell for hundreds of millions of Supreme Spirit Liquid."

"Should we ask the president to take a look?"

"Are you stupid? The chairman is here. If this woman is really dead, we're finished! Open the cage, let's take a look."

The guards reached a consensus and opened the cage. They carried out the ice sculpture, and in the next moment, they were frozen into ice sculptures, which then shattered.

The ice sculpture gradually melted, revealing Xiao Xue's face: "Done. This kind of trash can cultivate to the Dou Di level? Are you kidding me?"

Xiao Xue looked at the ice shards on the ground, then shook her head. She casually picked up a piece of gray cloth and wrapped it around herself. Her clothes were all torn, and her storage ring had been shattered by the spatial storm when she entered the Great Thousand World. She had nothing now.

Xiao Xue looked at the treasures around her, wondering if she should take something with her, but she still felt that escaping was the priority, so she grabbed something that looked like a bowl and left.

A moment later, "What! The Jade Marrow Ice Phoenix Body escaped? What are you all good for? How could you let someone get away like that?" Guild Master Tianbao exclaimed.

The elders were trembling with fear. The Tianbao Guild Master was the head of the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce, and his cultivation was extremely astonishing. It was said that he was already very close to becoming a Supreme Being.

An elder spoke up: "When they found it, there were no guards left; only some debris remained on the ground. It looks like the guards were killed!"

Guild Master Tianbao tapped his fingers on the throne: "As expected of an ascendant who can break through the shackles of dimensional barriers, none of them are simple!"

'

"Report! Guild Master, the leader of the Hyena Barking Gang has arrived."

President Tianbao raised an eyebrow and then said, "Let him in."

After entering, the leader of the Hyena Barking Gang bowed to President Tianbao. The Hyena Barking Gang was quite famous in the Zhiyang Continent. The gang leader, Fei Jing, was known as the Hyena. Few prey that he targeted could escape.

"President, I heard that the money tree has run away? Do you need my help to chase after it?" Fei Jing asked.

Guild Master Tianbao stared at Fei Jing: "Where did you get this information? I should have kept it a secret."

Fei Jing took out a specially made jade plate: "I left a mark on that woman, so I naturally sensed her escape. As expected of an Ascended Being, you truly have skill; even in your weakest state, you were able to kill several Supreme Beings!"

Guild Master Tianbao stared at Fei Jing: "What do you want?"

Fei Jing chuckled, "It's my honor to help Guild Master Tianbao. Besides, I'm the one who caught this money tree, so I can't let her get away. I've promised my brothers that we'll make a fortune."

Guild Master Tianbao laughed and then said, "Hahaha, then let me tell you, if we can catch that girl again, I'll invite you to join the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce as an elder. What do you think?"

Overjoyed, the barking beast cried out, "Thank you so much for your kindness, Master! I would gladly die for you!"

A month later, in the Blood Blade Hall, two figures exuding a bloodthirsty aura entered. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be a man and a woman. As the two stepped into the Blood Blade Hall, another extremely terrifying aura appeared.

A middle-aged man in a blood-red robe appeared before the man and woman. He was dressed in a blood-red robe, and his murderous aura was almost tangible. He had an ancient face and a hideous scar on his right cheek.

Bloodblade Palace Master, Lower Earthly Sovereign!

"Hehe, welcome back to Bloodblade Palace, Emperor Ming. Who did you kill this time?" Bloodblade Palace Master said with a smile.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Li sent several healthy heads crashing to the ground, their deaths gruesome.

"Oh my~ Old Man Xie Ming, Autumn Cicada Demon Lord, Old Demon Shu... have all these demons been killed?" Blood Blade Palace Master exclaimed in surprise. He had been surprised many times this month.

One is the Ming Emperor before us, and the other calls himself the Martial Ancestor, accepting bounties indiscriminately. The first bounty the Ming Emperor accepted was for a renowned evil cultivator, the Yin Luo Ancestor, who was a high-ranking Earthly Sovereign with extremely strong power. He had once sacrificed a small continent to cultivate demonic arts.

Even the dominant power of the Zhiyang Continent, the Zhiyang Palace, sent people to hunt him down, but he still managed to escape. In the end, he was killed by this unknown Emperor Ming.

When Emperor Ming dragged the corpse of the Yin Demon Ancestor into the Blood Blade Hall, it shocked the major powers of the Supreme Yang Continent. Many Earthly Sovereigns came to the Blood Blade Hall wanting to befriend this powerful figure.

However, this Ming Emperor left after taking the bounty. Afterwards, he continued to take on bounties, from the lowest ninth-rank supreme beings to the highest-ranking earthly supreme beings. As long as they were extremely wicked, this Ming Emperor killed them one by one!

"The bounty!" Xiao Li said in a deep voice.

"Understood, understood," the Bloodblade Palace Master said sullenly, not wanting to provoke this evil star.

Soon, the Blood Blade Palace Master handed Xiao Li a Spirit Gathering Bowl, which contained over a billion Supreme Spirit Liquids. It would be very difficult to kill a Earthly Supreme.

The bounty for a single Earthly Sovereign is usually over 100 million Supreme Spirit Liquids, and the bounty is adjusted according to the strength of the Earthly Sovereign. Xiao Li killed so many Earthly Sovereigns at once, so he did indeed gain a lot of Supreme Spirit Liquids.

After taking the Spirit Gathering Bowl, Xiao Li checked its contents, put it away, and turned to leave.

"Your Majesty, please wait."

The Blood Blade Palace Master suddenly called out to Xiao Li.

Xiao Li turned slightly, glancing at the Blood Blade Palace Master out of the corner of his eye. Just one glance sent a chill down the Blood Blade Palace Master's spine.

"What is it?"

The Blood Blade Palace Master was a man of great experience, and he wouldn't lose his composure because of a single glance. However, as a powerful figure, he knew he was no match for Xiao Li, so he maintained a humble attitude throughout.

If it were someone else, would they dare to test the sharpness of my Blood Blade?

The Bloodblade Palace Master chuckled, "Your Majesty Emperor Ming, you've accepted so many bounties, surely to participate in the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce's high-level auction? To be honest, I'm also very interested in this high-level auction."

The Treasure Merchant Guild sent out a message that day, stating that the final item would be a treasure that would be of great use even to supreme beings like us. Aren't you interested?

Xiao Li ignored the Blood Blade Palace Master and left directly with Zi Yan. He was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk anymore.

The Bloodblade Palace Master watched Emperor Ming leave without saying anything. After all, every strong person has some strange traits. If they don't, are they still strong?

"It's time to go to the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce."

Tianbao Chamber of Commerce is the number one chamber of commerce in Zhiyang Continent. Its business is booming, and people from Zhiyang Continent who want good things generally choose Tianbao Chamber of Commerce.

The president of the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce is a lower-level Earthly Sovereign, and it is said that his strength is even above that of the Blood Blade Palace Master, reaching the level of a half-step Upper-level Earthly Sovereign.

Moreover, this president has many friends. After all, businessmen are best at making friends. Everyone in the Zhiyang Continent knows that the president of the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce is not someone to be trifled with.

At this time, outside the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce, on Qibao Street, is a trading place opened up by the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce. However, most of the items here are below the Supreme level, while items above the Supreme level are generally sold at auctions.

"Here he comes!" The white-robed talisman ancestor saw Xiao Li's figure. He, Lin Dong, and the Devouring Lord and their group had been waiting for a long time.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." A month has passed, and Xiao Li's mood remains gloomy, unlike before when he was as cheerful as a spring breeze.

Ying Huanhuan and Lin Qingtan discussed privately whether Xiao Li's appearance was due to damage from the spiritual tribulation.

Fu Zu smiled and said, "Then let's go in."

"stop!"

"Don't run!"

A series of shouts rang out, and the group looked in the direction of the sound. They saw a group of people chasing a person wearing a tattered gray cloth, which they could vaguely make out to be a woman.

Zi Yan sniffed: "This smell... Xiao Li!"

Xiao Li was no longer with the others, but appeared in front of the woman in gray cloth.

"Make way! Make way!" The woman in gray cloth bumped into Xiao Li, but it didn't hurt. She felt a familiar heat sweep over her body, and her injuries were healing.

Xiao Xue looked up and saw that familiar face: "Father?"

"What happened? Weren't you with Xiao Yan before? How did you end up like this?" Xiao Li's face was gloomy as he saw many wounds on his daughter's body.

"Why not..."

When the people chasing Xiao Xue saw that she had stopped running, they were about to say something when they were suddenly covered by a strange black flame and turned to ashes in an instant!

Xiao Li's eyes were bloodshot, and his aura of killing intent was terrifying. These bastards dared to chase after his daughter, they should die!

A startling aura swept over, emanating from Guild Master Tianbao. He had been watching everything closely, intending to capture the Jade Marrow Ice Phoenix Body in one fell swoop, but then the Fiend Emperor Ming appeared.

As a businessman, how could President Tianbao not know Emperor Ming? That was Emperor Ming, who had powerfully killed several veteran powerhouses upon arriving in the Zhiyang Continent. President Tianbao considered himself inferior to Emperor Ming, so what did he hear? That Jade Marrow Ice Phoenix Physique called Emperor Ming "father"?

Seeing her father there gave Xiao Xue a sense of security. On her escape, Xiao Xue also learned about Emperor Ming, who seemed like a harbinger of doom. Xiao Xue felt very lucky that she and her father were on the same continent.

So during this time, she had been running around looking for Xiao Li, but the Hyena Barking Gang and the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce were chasing her too closely, so Xiao Xue had to search while running. This period of hiding and running was finally over.

Xiao Xue immediately shouted, "Didn't you want to sell me off? You want to sell me off to someone as a tool to improve your cultivation? Come on then!"

As soon as Xiao Xue finished speaking, Xiao Li unleashed a terrifying killing intent! His blood-red eyes stared at President Tianbao, and a black and white giant blade materialized in his hand.

"Your Majesty, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! I didn't know..."

"die!!!"

With a swift movement, Xiao Li cleaved Tianbao Guild Master in two! Then, eerie black and white flames raged, incinerating Tianbao Guild Master completely. In a single exchange, he had instantly killed a powerful figure nearing the Upper Earthly Sovereign level.

In an instant, Xiao Li's figure grew larger, transforming into a towering black and white giant, which then trampled on the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce.

The entire Tianbao Chamber of Commerce was wiped out!
