Chapter 733: 750 - Him

Chapter 750, Him

 

The Sky Meteor Sect Saint’s purpose was very simple, to find two temporary guards for the Sacred Son of Sky Meteor Sect.

He had no other alternative. 

For this opportunity, the Sky Meteor Sect had paid a great price. They had exchanged benefits with the great forces of the world only to get an opportunity to go into the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss, and ultimately became one of the five great forces that eventually came onto the peak of Taowu Mountain Range.

And as the one who had arranged the plan, they had calculated everything in advance, including the number of places to enter the dark Door of Life. The guardian elder, just like the Sacred Son of the Sky Meteor Sect, was one of the final selected candidates. 

And because of some restrictions of the Black Demon Abyss, not only the Sky Meteor Sect, but the Sinful Pit, Jade Pearl Sect and the other forces all sent only the final candidates here. If there were too many experts and masters here it would have made the Black Demon Race misunderstand.

But after their careful calculation, they did not think the Door of Life would not be able to bear the strength of Saint-level experts. The experts they brought were thus not allowed to enter.

In this way, the situation where there were originally carefully selected candidates had immediately turned into a shortage of people.

Most importantly, there was one thing in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss that was very important to the Sky Meteor Sect. They could not give up. If the Sacred Son of Sky Meteor Sect were to enter himself, the variables were too great that all hopes and efforts could come to nothing. 

The situation was not ideal, forcing the Sky Meteor Sect guardian elder to abruptly change his strategy.

He needed to find two Immortal Step helpers to protect the Sky Meteor Sacred Son. 

The reason why they had set out the conditions was to prevent the two helpers from using the name of guards for their own benefits and going out of control after entering the Black Demon Abyss. 

“I will wait outside the dark Door of Life, and if my sect's Sacred Son comes back out alive then nothing will happen. But if there is an accident, then the chosen person will also be buried.” 

The guardian elder of the Sky Meteor Sect looked down with incomparable majesty. 

“Who would like to sign up?” he asked. 

Upon hearing this, the several major forces and experts broke into clamour. Some of them were evidently tempted.

The conditions of the guardian elder were very harsh and overbearing, but also very valid and direct. With the condition that they must live and die together, in the end the person that was selected, even if they had malicious intentions, they still must fight with their life to protect the Sky Meteor Sect’s Sacred Son. Such a condition would, in the greatest degree, make use of external forces to protect his people.  

After a moment, another person questioned, “If I finally protected the noble Sacred Son back safely, then if I obtained some treasures in the 18th district, who will they belong to?” 

The guardian elder pondered for a moment before he responded, “Except for one thing that my sect must have, everything else is yours.” 

“What?” 

“Such a good exchange?”

“Really?” 

The crowd was immediately boiling with excitement. 

The Sky Meteor Sect was really generous this time. If this really was the case, then the conditions that they must live and die together was quite acceptable. After all, the dark Door of Life probably only emerged once in millions of years, and countless treasures were rumoured to be found in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss. Even a quasi-emperor gave up his life to go there. 

“Is this for real?” in disbelief, someone asked again. 

The guardian elder uttered loud and clear, “I have spoken, it is true.” 

This sentence was spoken in an extremely proud voice. 

A Saint-level expert had spoke out at such a scene. His words indeed had enormous weight and will not change. This is the majesty and prestige of a Saint-level expert, and the credibility that the major force has build up for thousands of years. 

“What exactly is the thing that your sect must have?” someone asked loudly. 

A light flickered in the Sky Meteor Sect elder's eyes, a terrifying Saint-level power began to diffuse as he warned, “This has nothing to do with you, it is best not to ask anymore to avoid suffering on account of your own meddling.” 

The man was speechless. 

Around four or five seconds later.

“The Patriarch of the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Sect Tian Huayu is willing to accept the conditions and accompany the Sacred Son of the Sky Meteor Sect into the Door of Life.” An imposing and striking middle-aged man came forward, carrying an ancient sword on his back. He was tall and burly, possessed tyrannical strength and exuded a chivalrous air. He was the first to sign up. 

For a moment, countless eyes fell on Tian Huayu.  

The Heavenly Dragon Ancient Sect was a large sect of the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Domain, which had more than five million years of history, and was once a super-large and famous domain. It had once occupied the status of being the strongest of the world, and had once possessed incredibly glorious history. But the domain later began to deteriorate, it’s resources depleted, and in the end moved towards decline. There was a great Saint that predicted that the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Domain would only last for a maximum of two thousand years before it is completely depleted and destroyed, and the living beings faced with disaster. 

Because of this reason, the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Sect was also declining. The former awe inspiring top sect had become a second-rate sect, and the leader Tian Huayu was only of the Immortal Step boundary.

In order to have an opportunity to step into the 18th district of Black Demon Abyss, the Heavenly Dragon Ancient Sect also came out of their nest and paid a huge price. Tian Huayu had an important reason to enter the Door of Life and so was the first to stand forward. 

With Tian Huayu taking the lead, the next moment there were dozens of Immortal Step experts coming forward.

“I, the Master of the Sky Listen Court, Zhuge Wo, is also willing to accept the conditions.” 

“Me, I'll go too!” 

“Choose me, choose me.”

Many people stepped forward. 

They all had their own reasons to enter the 18th district of Black Demon Abyss and were all exceptionally strong Immortal Step experts. The conditions of the Sky Meteor Sect, upon careful analysis, was not too demanding, and to exchange for a place in entering the 18th district of Black Demon Abyss with such conditions was simply a wonderful thing, like origin crystals falling from the sky.

Once cultivated to a certain extent, many martial artists, in order to fight for some opportunity, were no different to common gamblers.

Light flashed in the eyes of the guardian elder of the Sky Meteor Sect, carefully looking down.

But at this moment, the Sacred Son of the Sky Meteor Sect who had been silent all this time suddenly opened his mouth to say, “I only choose the strongest people to come with me, the trash that would not survive would only waste places.” 

Soon the crowd understood what he meant. 

A bloodbath broke out on Fierce Beast Peak once again.

The experts who chose to sign up fought on the central ring and finally the two strongest experts emerged. One of the two who won a place to follow the Sacred Son of Sky Meteor Sect was Tian Huayu of Heavenly Dragon Ancient Sect.

Under the arena, there were dozens of corpses. 

Ye Qingyu coldly watched and suddenly made a judgement about the Sacred Son of the Sky Meteor Sect. That person was ruthless and bloodthirsty, and surely not a good person. He must be careful if he ran into him in the future.

With the lead of the Sky Meteor Sect, the other great forces, except for the Black Demon Race that had occupied the advantage of being the host, such as Jade Pearl Sect and Kaiyang Imperial Court, had to adjust their previous strategy, choosing to select guards for their respective Saintess and Saint.

Another bloodbath broke out on the central arena of Fierce Beast Peak. In order to compete for a place into the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss, they had launched a deadly fight as more blood soaked the stage. 

With the passage of time, the competition grew more intense.  

As each new candidate was born, it meant that there was one less place to the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss.

Later, experts from all sides had gone berserk with killing. 

Ye Qingyu knitted his brows tightly. 

He was not too surprised by the cruel scene, but the problem now was that, as before, he still had no idea on how to get his hands on the Black Demon Herb from the major forces.

At such a time, even if he had took out some divine level origin crystal to exchange for Black Demon Herb, the major forces would most likely not be tempted and only regard him as a meddler. 

What should I do? 

Ye Qingyu was a little impatient. 

Once all the places have been finalized and the great forces have entered the dark Door of Life, the odds of getting the Black Demon Herb was even more uncertain.  

“Big brother, why don't you do anything? There are not many opportunities left, now there are only four places left...” Sheng Yan anxiously urged Ye Qingyu to hurriedly fight. He occasionally swept his gaze across the sky and found something very surprising, “Hey, no, why would Lu Li and Yang Wanqu the two trash be standing next to the Third Prince of the Kaiyang Imperial Court. They have actually got a place... You're kidding, these two guys are far weaker than the Immortal Step boundary.”

Ye Qingyu took a glance and really saw that Lu Li and Yang Wanqu were humbly and incredibly grateful saying something to the Third Prince of the Kaiyang Imperial Court. The attitude they displayed was entirely different from their usual arrogant and domineering self, like they were simply two different people. 

In the air.

“Your Highness, are you really going to do this?” the guardian elder of the Kaiyang Imperial Court asked casually.

The Third Prince gave a slight smile, “The opportunity is with the individual, my fate is in my grasp, why should I need their protection? What I need to do is to lead others. If I could not even break through the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss, then so what if I can come out alive?”

His manner of speaking was incredibly confident, and his whole person was as radiant and bright as the War God of the Sun.

When these words came out, the Sacred Son of the Sky Meteor Sect, the Young Lord of the Sinful Pit and the others all simultaneously had an abrupt change of expression.

They were all geniuses of the same generation, but compared with this manner and imposing attitude, they were much inferior.

In a blink of an eye, the number of places was basically decided. 

It was only at that moment that all people had noticed that, besides the Little Princess of the Black Demon Race, who had the advantage of being situated in her own territory and did not need to recruit outsiders, there was one who had not spoke from the beginning to end among the major super forces.

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden. 

The mysteriously powerful beautiful woman had been silent all this time, like a spectator, icy cold and aloof. The wind stirred her long violet hair, like a female martial god who did not belong to the world, exuding a power that maked one shudder all over. 

At this moment, the experts who were disappointed and were about to leave all turned to the Celestial Phoenix Maiden.

Of all the superpowers, there was only her who still had two places to give away. 

This was their last chance. 

The bald-headed Sheng Yan was frantically stabbing Ye Qingyu with his finger, “Big brother, big brother, you can’t keep a low profile anymore, quickly go, quickly...”

Ye Qingyu frowned. 

At that moment—— 

“Celestial Maiden, I am Gui Yunzi of the Wasteland Sect, I have reached the Immortal Step boundary a hundred years ago. I sincerely ask Celestial Maiden to allow me to accompany you into the 18th district. I will follow you blindly and protect you with my life.” A white-haired old man sincerely bowed with a horsetail whisk in his hand.

“Two River Domain's [Tyrant Blade] is also willing to...” 

“Nameless Sword Manor's [Autumn Water Sword] Nan Xueyi sincerely asks Celestial Maiden to give me a chance...”

“I'd like to go too...” 

Many experts recommended themselves, looking up hopefully. 

At this time, even the most arrogant experts and the most senior of experts could not restrain themselves. Once this opportunity is missed, there probably would not be a next time.

But there was a dull, absent light in the Celestial Phoenix Maiden's eyes.

Her eyes were fixed quietly at the dark door in the sky, which was about to fall into complete tranquillity. She seemed to be in a daze, and did not hear a single word.

“Your highness...” her Saint guardian showed up and asked.

“Huh?” It wasn't until now that the Celestial Phoenix Maiden seemed to have snapped out of her trance, looking at the guardian Saint.

The guardian Saint covered his forehead with a helpless look on his face until his Little Aunt had really recovered.

This Little Aunt, whether it was aptitude, talent, or skill, she was good at everything, but she was always lost in thought, unconcerned about all matters, and nothing could draw her attention. It seemed that her mind and attention would never stay on the same person or matter for more than ten seconds.  

Seeing the expression on the guardian Saint's face, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden let out a sigh, and casually pointed her finger to one of the crowd of thousands. “Then let him come with me.” 

For a moment, countless eyes were focused on the direction of the fair and soft finger.

There they saw a big-eyed and thick-browed young man dressed in rags, without the slightest fluctuation of yuan qi around him, covered with scars, and looked simply like a beggar.

And beside the beggar was a bald-headed fat man dumbfounded at the sight, mouth wide and speechless.

……

Ye Qingyu was stunned.

He never thought that the Celestial Phoenix Maiden would point to him. 

Was it really a casual and unintentional point of her finger?  

Or was it planned ahead?

Ye Qingyu could not decide. 

The bald fatty looked around, rubbed his round face, then back at Celestial Phoenix Maiden in the sky, repeatedly confirming that the person she pointed to was Ye Qingyu. He trembled with excitement all over, exclaiming, “Big brother, it’s you, it really is you, quickly declare your stance.”

And at this moment the countless gazes on Ye Qingyu, after a short period of consternation and shock, turned envious.

In fact, for a lot of experts it was the first time they noticed that there was such a person on the Fierce Beast Peak. His aura and fluctuation of power was he really not just a servant or something?  

“Celestial Maiden, please consider carefully.”  

“Yes, this boy is too weak to qualify for the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss.” 

“Celestial Maiden, you must not be so casual with your choice.” 

After a brief silence and shock, some people could not help but open their mouth again to fight for their chance. While arguing, all were mocking and belittling Ye Qingyu, and almost crushing him on the spot.

“Hey hey, what are you saying?” The bald fatty ran his eyes across irritably, “ The Celestial Maiden has taken a fancy to my big brother. You do not agree? Well there's nothing you can do...”  

In the sky.  

When the guardian Saint of the Celestial Phoenix Maiden heard the fatty's remark, he had the impulse to strangle him to death.

That was a very ambiguous remark.

What did he mean by ‘the Celestial Maiden had taken a fancy to my big brother’? he said it as if my Aunt likes that boy...

“Him.” Under the watchful eye of all, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden indifferently raised her finger again, pointing to Ye Qingyu again, and uttered in a much firmer tone than before. 

With this, the crowd was speechless. 

And her guardian Saint, at this moment, also realized something, as his eyes flashed all of a sudden.

That's not right. 

His Little Aunt had rarely looked at a man two times, let alone raised her fingers to point at him and said ‘him’ two times. Could it really be that, as that bald fat man had said, she took a fancy to the young man....No that can’t be right. His Aunt was not such a person. Then could it be that the seemingly ordinary young man has something special that made his Aunt look at him differently?

He closely studied Ye Qingyu again. 

Sure enough, he found some clues and the more he looked, the more frightened he got.

Even with his Saint-level cultivation, he unexpectedly could not see through the strength of the young man. There seemed to be no fluctuation of yuan qi from him, but faintly there was a very vague and terrifying power, which he could not distinguish. 

“Interesting.” 

A smile crept onto the face of the Saint guardian. 

Maybe they really had discovered a treasure this time. 

“Young man, come here, the place is yours.” He smiled as kindly as he could. 

On the ground. 

Ye Qingyu knitted his brows. 

He had no interest in the place at all. 

Firstly, it was because of time constraints. He was saddled with the important task of the Heaven Wasteland Domain diplomatic corps. Secondly, who knows what sort of danger would be waiting for him in the 18th district… Ye Qingyu had not even solved the mystery of his own life, he did not want to take risks, and there were many things he still needed to do.  

More  importantly, he has had many opportunities, even the great legacy of the Emperor. Why would he fight for some uncertain opportunity? 

With this thought, Ye Qingyu shook his head, “I'm sorry, seniors, I don't want to go into the 18th district, so... I regret to say that I cannot comply with your wish.”

Before his voice faded.

Hua!

Clamour broke out again. 

Everyone’s jaw dropped They all looked Ye Qingyu like looking at a madman and a fool. It was hard to believe that he had just said these words. He... really... turned it down?

This kid was not stupid, was he? 

The smile on the guardian Saint’s face was also frozen.

At first he thought he had misheard him, but when he looked down to see the calm expression on the young man's face below, he understood that the youngster had really formally and seriously rejected his invitation. 

This... was even more interesting. 

The guardian Saint could tell that the youngster was not playing any tricks. He really was not interested in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss. He really was not at all tempted by the exceptional opportunity. He remained calm and composed. The youngster's mind really was frightening.  

However, before everyone had reacted, in the sky, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden was not the slightest bit angry, rather indifferently repeated, “Him.”

The third time.

The guardian Saint knew that, whatever it was, when the Little Aunt said it for the third time in a row, it meant that her decision was more important than anything in the world, and must be done.

But the problem was...

They couldn’t just tie that youngster up and throw him into the dark Door of Life.  

The guardian Saint felt that his old face was destined to be thrown away here today. He looked at Ye Qingyu kindly and said in a persuasive tone of voice, “Young man, do not decline in such a hurry, if you have any conditions you can suggest it, we can discuss it.” 

Before his voice faded.

The experts on all sides of the Fierce Beast Peak were almost about to spit out blood and turn crazy. 

It was so infuriating. 

Each and every one of them were shamelessly recommending themselves, yet the Celestial Phoenix Maiden did not even take a glance at them. The little beggar clearly did not want to go, but she had repeatedly asked him to go, and even the guardian Saint had to lower his voice and persuade him. This... there won't be something fishy going on right?  

“Big brother, you two know each other?” Fatty Sheng Yan’s gaze suspiciously shifted from Ye Qingyu to the Celestial Phoenix Maiden with a vulgar expression on his face. 

Ye Qingyu simply ignored him. 

“Lord Saint, do you have any Black Demon Herb?” Fatty Sheng Yan answered on behalf of Ye Qingyu, “If Lord is willing to sell a few Black Demon Herbs, then my big brother would like to follow Celestial Phoenix Maiden.” 

“Black Demon Herb?” The Saint guardian exclaimed, “This is simple, I do have quite a few Black Demon Herbs on me, and if you need them, take them all.” 

Ye Qingyu's eyes lit up.

The fat man was useful for once. 

“Thank you, my lord, but my big brother had another request, he does not want to be separated from me his brother, so your second place, can you give it to me? In that case, we will have no other objection.” The fatty very shamelessly proposed a second condition. 

The guardian Saint cast a glance at the Celestial Phoenix Maiden.

The Celestial Phoenix Maiden’s gaze had already returned to the dark door in the sky.

So he nodded and said, “Yes.” 

Sheng Yan jumped up excitedly. 

Everyone else around them was struck dumb. 

This... what is going on? 

This was too casual, wasn't it?

The last two places, the two precious places that were enough to shake the world, were so carelessly and casually decided? Was the action of the Celestial Phoenix Sect a joke?

“I don't agree.” A peak Immortal Step expert could not help but stand up and gritted his teeth. “This is not fair, this boy is as weak as an ant, why does he qualify to enter the 18th district? I don't agree!” 

“I don't agree either.”

“It's too casual.” 

 “Although these two places belong to the Celestial Phoenix Sect, but the matter of entering the 18th district is enormous and could affect the fate of the world. How can it be decided so carelessly? Why would such a trash get the opportunity?”

“Exactly.”

The great disappointment, the shock and the fury, as well the agitation of losing the opportunity had made the rest of the experts extremely enraged, and they took the risk to surround Ye Qingyu and collectively united to protest to the Saint expert——
