The Imperial Martial Pill Venerable

"Young Master, our investigation is complete. The matter was first spread by an Elder from the Chang Family of Feixi City in Yun Province. However, the Chang Family is just a minor family, and that Elder’s Cultivation wasn’t high. What’s strange is that after this incident, he immediately went into seclusion and broke through to the Extraordinary Realm. Something is off about this..."

"Young Master, that Chang Family Elder was indeed acting on someone’s orders—an Elder from the Zhao Family, also in Feixi City. This person had previously gone to the Ao Family to compete for the Cyan Cloud Order. Within just two days, the news that you obtained the Cyan Cloud Order spread throughout Yun Province. Someone with ulterior motives must be orchestrating this from behind the scenes. Rest assured, Young Master, I will investigate this thoroughly..."

"The Three Great Noble Families of Zhao, Li, and Yun have been silent since returning from the Ao Family, ignoring all external affairs. After the news of you obtaining the Cyan Cloud Order spread, they appeared to take no action. However, I have discovered that they have been in secret contact with several powers, including the Blood Nether Association..."

At the Worldwide Business Association, Qin Ya held several letters from Liu Po, his eyes narrowed. ’Human hearts are treacherous. It’s just as I thought.’ If Qin Ya hadn’t intervened to break the formation at the Ao Family’s estate, how could the Three Great Noble Families of Zhao, Li, and Yun have possibly made it back alive? Yet, unexpectedly, they were still obsessed with the Cyan Cloud Order!

These three families weren’t the only powers Qin Ya had saved back then. They didn’t want their own families to be branded as ungrateful and attacked by the other powers, so they orchestrated all of this. By dragging Qin Ya into the storm, they hoped others would do their dirty work and seize the Cyan Cloud Order for them.

"Interesting. Then don’t blame me for being ruthless."

A cold glint flashed in Qin Ya’s eyes. They were afraid of staining their reputations because they had families to answer to, but Qin Ya was all alone. He had nothing to fear! ’Since these three families are treating me this way, wouldn’t I be a joke if I didn’t strike back?!’

"Then let’s start with the Zhao Family."

A cold sneer played on Qin Ya’s lips, as frigid as the heart of winter.

With that, he left the Worldwide Business Association and headed for Feixi City in Yun Province.

The moment he appeared, he was inevitably spotted. In an instant, countless people mobilized, all rushing toward Feixi City in search of Qin Ya!

"Let’s go! To Feixi City!"

"Just got a report from our spy! Qin Ya is heading toward Feixi City."

"Hmph. With so many people wanting to capture him, he actually dares to show his face."

"He’s not even trying to disguise himself. You have to admire his guts."

Powers from all sides were stirred, and Feixi City became the center of the whirlpool.

As Qin Ya sped through the sky, he suddenly furrowed his brow. He saw a burly man with a large saber standing on a distant mountain peak, staring at him. The man’s gaze was grim, his blade’s edge chilling. Seeing this, Qin Ya’s Sky-Controlling figure slowly came to a halt.

"You’re Qin Ya!" the burly man said coldly.

"I am!"

"Hand over the Cyan Cloud Order, and I’ll spare your life!"

The moment the burly man’s words fell, endless bolts of lightning flashed before his eyes. A deafening roar erupted from the void as dozens of Thunder Spears, like the wrath of heaven itself, shot toward him!

The man’s pupils shrank. He swung his saber in a great diagonal slash, unleashing a massive wave of Blade Qi. But in less than an instant, it was shattered by the Thunder. The Thunder Spears continued onward unabated. The man let out a wretched scream as he, along with the mountain peak he stood on, was obliterated in the space of a breath!

A single, fatal strike!

After killing the man, Qin Ya’s expression remained unchanged. He shot toward Feixi City like a streak of Flowing Light. Before long, however, a dozen or so Extraordinary Martial Artists blocked his path. An arrogant youth who looked like a young master from a Noble Family stepped forward and said, "You are Qin Ya?"

"You want the Cyan Cloud Order!" Qin Ya stated, his tone grim and cold.

"Hand it over, and we’ll spare your life!"

Qin Ya was already losing his patience. Without another word, he raised his hand, and a wave of boundless, violent Thunder swept forth. Seeing this, the dozen or so Extraordinary Martial Artists unleashed their own Secret Techniques.

But the tyrannical might of the Thunder, filled with intense killing intent, blasted them all to pieces. In just a short part of the day, Qin Ya had taken the lives of over a dozen Extraordinary individuals. A cold light gleamed in his eyes, icy and grim, as he stared intently at the distant Feixi City!

’Let’s see what else you’ve got!’

One wave, two waves... four waves...

Over a journey of just a few thousand miles, Qin Ya had already been attacked by five full waves of Extraordinary Martial Artists. All of them came for the same thing... the Cyan Cloud Order!

In the past, when the Cyan Cloud Order was in the hands of the Ao Family, it was fought over by the major top-tier powers.

These lesser fighters had neither the qualifications nor the strength to join the fray. But now things were different. The Cyan Cloud Order was in the hands of Qin Ya, and Qin Ya was merely a Loose Cultivator. This gave them an opportunity!

And so, like sharks smelling blood in the water, they swarmed him!

Qin Ya showed no mercy. Anyone who came to steal the order... was summarily blasted to death!

In half a day, no fewer than fifty Extraordinary Martial Artists had died at Qin Ya’s hands. Even over a dozen Celestial Human Martial Artists were among the dead. The path behind him was littered with blood and corpses. Such a battle record left the many Martial Artists tailing Qin Ya in utter disbelief.

"This Qin Ya... he really does have the combat power of a Celestial Human Level expert!"

"It’s terrifying. He has this kind of power just at the Sky-Controlling stage. If he reaches the Celestial Human Realm, won’t he be able to turn the heavens upside down?"

"What a frightening prodigy."

.........

Along the way, a storm of blood and gore raged. With his spear in hand, Qin Ya rampaged alone for a thousand miles!

"Die!!"

Less than a hundred miles from Feixi City, Qin Ya’s spear struck like a dragon, suddenly piercing through a large man’s head. Snakes of electricity immediately coiled around it. Amidst a flash of violet light, a furious wave of Thunder Power surged out, enveloping a dozen Extraordinary experts. The Thunder entered their bodies, instantly paralyzing them. Qin Ya seized the opportunity and charged forward, his speed as fast as a ghost. With his spear in hand, he radiated an inviolable, awe-inspiring might!

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! With several whooshes, the spear traced profound arcs through the air. In an instant, the heads of the dozen Extraordinary experts exploded, spraying a rain of blood. Not far away, several other Extraordinary Martial Artists who were about to charge forward and seize the Cyan Cloud Order saw this. They swallowed hard, their bodies trembling uncontrollably as a sudden, bone-chilling fear rose in their hearts!

’Heavens, what were they thinking?’

’To actually try and steal the Cyan Cloud Order from a man like that!’

’From a man who slaughters Extraordinary experts as if they were dogs and sheep!’

’This is just courting death!’

"That makes seven waves!!"

The corner of Qin Ya’s mouth curled up slightly, carrying a chill that seeped into one’s bones and froze the very Soul. Then, he looked toward the nearby Feixi City and flew slowly toward it!

He arrived at Feixi City at an unhurried pace.

Atop the walls of Feixi City, a middle-aged Martial Artist in a gray robe with a longsword at his waist was waiting for him. When Qin Ya arrived, the man’s pupils shrank slightly!

’Killing intent, Evil Qi, and an aura of death that makes him seem like the Death God himself!’

The gray-robed middle-aged man looked past Qin Ya, and it was as if he could see the trail of blood and bones left in his wake. His heart went cold. ’Heavens, just how many people has this young man killed!’

"Qin Ya, you’re finally here."

The gray-robed middle-aged man took a deep breath, suppressing the fear in his heart. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes as he stared at Qin Ya. The longsword at his waist trembled, letting out a high-pitched hum!

Qin Ya, however, remained impassive, his expression showing neither joy nor sorrow.

’He had no idea how many times he had heard that line on his journey here.’

’And every single person who said it had already become another soul claimed by his spear!’
