Chapter 1789 - 1772: Curtain Falls, The Victor
After several confrontations with Ethan, Xiao Ye understood without words that the other party definitely held significant hostility toward him.
As for Wan Lingxiao.
Also a Spirit King of the Blue Demon Star Domain, the other party thrust him towards You Jiushan just to enter the Sand Palace safely.
If it weren’t for his formidable strength, he might have died at the hands of the other.
For such people, Xiao Ye held no good feelings.
"Xiao Ye, I am an enforcement officer of the Blue Demon Star Domain, don’t go too far!" Ethan was trembling with rage, his face ashen.
Who would be willing to leave, knowing that countless treasures might be buried beneath this ruin?
More importantly, he was a dignified law enforcement officer, yet now he was being driven out by a Spirit King from the same Star Domain force?
If this got out, it would surely become a laughingstock for others.
"Too far?"
"When Ethan Law Enforcement Officer used his power to oppress others back in the Spirit Capital and wanted to kill me, did he ever think he was going too far?"
"If Ethan Law Enforcement Officer still wants to stay, then I will have no choice but to take action," Xiao Ye’s eyes flashed with cold light as he began to step forward.
"Fine, you win!"
Seeing Xiao Ye make a move, Ethan’s expression changed, he gritted his teeth hard, turned around, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the vast horizon.
Right now, he really did not dare to fight Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye couldn’t be bothered to pursue him.
After all, Ethan was one of the enforcement officers of the Blue Demon Star Domain. If he took this opportunity to eliminate him now, it might provoke the Blue Demon’s discontent, considering he would still need to leverage the Blue Demon Star Domain’s power later.
Moreover, with his current strength, he no longer feared Ethan at his peak, and dealing with him after further advancement would be a piece of cake.
"Xiao Ye Spirit King, Wan Lingxiao once harmed you, and I am very aware of it. Having received your favor this time, I have no way to repay you. Now I shall give you justice,"
At this moment, the tall and robust Luo Jian stepped forward, with a wave of his palm, a terrifying aura immediately suppressed Wan Lingxiao, who was attempting to flee.
"Luo Jian Law Enforcement Officer, I... I am a Spirit King under your command!" Wan Lingxiao’s face was full of disbelief.
Yet his pleas could not sway Luo Jian.
"Wan Lingxiao, you can only blame yourself for provoking Xiao Ye. At least with my action, you can still keep your life."
Luo Jian thought secretly, immediately forcing out Wan Lingxiao’s Spirit Seed and slicing it apart with a sword light.
In an instant, Wan Lingxiao’s aura rapidly fell, his face pale as paper.
Having lost his Spirit Seed, he had only the physical body of a Spirit Rank powerhouse left, with no future ahead.
"This..."
The four enforcement officers of Leng Ming were all stunned by Luo Jian’s decisiveness.
Wan Lingxiao, after all, was a powerful Spirit King and he was under Luo Jian’s command, yet Luo Jian actually rendered him useless straightaway.
This scene frightened the other Spirit Kings of the Blue Demon Star Domain into cold sweats.
With Xiao Ye’s already-established prestige and four enforcement officers by his side, who in the Blue Demon Star Domain would dare to provoke him?
Xiao Ye watched all this in silence, without a shred of pity, yet he was somewhat surprised by Luo Jian’s attitude.
"Alright, let’s look for treasures now." Seeing Luo Jian toss the spiritless Wan Lingxiao aside, Xiao Ye said with a slight smile.
At this moment, there was no need for Xiao Ye to remind them; Yasi was already scouring the ruins.
With the capabilities of the group, unearthing these ruins was truly too simple.
Soon, Xiao Ye made a discovery.
"So many second-class Spirit Techniques?"
"It seems the treasures in this ancient city are abundant, no wonder they’re drawing law enforcement officers from all Nine Star Domains."
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Ye collected twenty Jade Scrolls, his spiritual sense scanned them, and his eyes instantly brightened.
Second-class Spirit Techniques are quite precious and, if submitted to the Battle Merit Tower, could earn a hefty amount of war merit.
"Fifty million war merit is no small number, and since the reserve of White Light Stone Milk in the Taishan Star Domain cannot be exposed, accumulating fifty million war merit is not easy, so naturally, the more treasures collected, the better."
Xiao Ye put away these twenty second-class Spirit Techniques, his eyes burning with intensity.
Having come to the vast Three Thousand Great Realms, Xiao Ye realized that merely a Blue Demon Star Domain could never restrict him.
Only by becoming an enforcement officer of the Blue Demon Star Domain could he qualify to access the Void Great Realm!
Thus, becoming the sixth enforcement officer of the Blue Demon Star Domain was imperative for him!
"Besides, exchanging for Spirit Transformation Pills and Time Rain Stones also requires quite a lot of war merit." Xiao Ye continued to search through the ruins, pocketing any discovered treasures without a second thought.
Most treasures here were already useless to him but could be used to exchange for war merit.
He secretly placed most treasures into the Time Tower, freeing up his Space Ring to continue collecting treasures.
As time passed, a day went by, and everyone’s harvest was plentiful, repeatedly casting grateful glances towards Xiao Ye.
Various spiritual artifacts, Cosmic Spiritual Treasures, Spirit Techniques were found in abundance, and even ten portions of White Light Stone Milk were discovered.
Xiao Ye claimed the biggest contribution, taking three portions for himself, with the remainder divided among the four enforcement officers and Yasi.
The treasures in the top three layers of the Time Tower were already piled up like a small mountain, and there were even some treasures he couldn’t identify, which made him tremble inwardly.
"Together with the treasures found in the Sand Palace, submitting them to the Battle Merit Tower might even exceed fifty million,"
"Once back in the Spirit Capital, I’ll carefully determine which treasures are useful to me." Xiao Ye’s face bore a slight smile.
Although he had no way to reach the First Treasure Star among the Five Great Treasure Stars, he was undoubtedly the biggest winner in this Starry Sky Secret Realm trip, for one must be content, as it’s impossible to take all treasures, and the ones best suited for oneself are the most precious.
At this very moment—
Rumble!
Heaven and earth began to tremble, and above the Second Treasure Star, the winds and clouds changed, as nine figures appeared simultaneously in the sky, their cold gazes overlooking those below.
The nine Invincible Spirit Rank powerhouses had appeared!
At this moment, any martial artist on the Second Treasure Star was shocked to look up.
"Has the Second Treasure Star been unsealed?"
Amid his shock, Xiao Ye sensed the changes occurring on the Second Treasure Star, a gleam flashing through his eyes.
It seemed...
These nine Invincible Spirit Rank powerhouses had already abandoned their search for the White Light Stone Milk reserves left by the Taishan Star Domain.
"The Starry Sky Secret Realm journey is over, you all must leave quickly." A majestic voice spread across the Second Treasure Star like a thunderclap.
"Have the nine Invincible Spirit Rank powerhouses already discovered the White Light Stone Milk reserves left by the Taishan Star Domain?"
"Leaving so soon? I’m not reconciled!"
...
Immediately, discussions erupted from every corner of the Second Treasure Star, but most martial artists still heeded the command, soaring into the sky, heading out of the Treasure Star.
The order of the Invincible Spirit Rank powerhouses, who would dare defy it?
"Let’s go!"
Xiao Ye smiled slightly, his body soaring into the sky.
"It’s also time to return to the True Spirit Continent. I wonder if, over the years, a New Emperor has appeared in the True Spirit Continent..." Thinking of his homeland, Xiao Ye’s thoughts drifted away.
