Soul Emperor Martial God

Xiao Yi heard the words and gave a cold smile, "I also didn't expect that the Star Alliance Leader would be so young."

Xux Xing furrowed his brows slightly and chuckled.

"In my Star Alliance, there are naturally many elders who are far more capable than I am."

"It's just that these elders think highly of Xux Xing, so I shamelessly accepted the position of Alliance Leader."

"What is your name?"

"In the East Six Counties, I don't know of anyone like you."

Xiao Yi shook his head, "A chance meeting, we don't know each other, no need to exchange names."

Xux Xing smiled and said, "We don't know each other now, but perhaps in the future, we will become close friends."

"I have come to you today precisely to invite you to join the Star Alliance."

"I'm not interested," Xiao Yi shook his head, "Move aside, I have urgent matters to attend to."

"Urgent matters?" Xux Xing chuckled, "What you call urgent matters is to continue dealing with the Thousand Heroes Sect."

"To continue destroying those evil places where Blood Intent Pills are concocted."

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned.

Xux Xing smiled again and said, "You don't have to lie to me."

"People have mistook you for a member of my Star Alliance all along, haven't you ever wondered why?"

"Although the Star Alliance has a terrible reputation, it's just a misunderstanding by outsiders."

"It's amplified by the malicious propaganda of the Thousand Heroes Sect."

"Our target is actually the Thousand Heroes Sect as well."

"What we call frequent attacks on other forces and wiping out other sects, in reality, is dealing with the minions of the Thousand Heroes Sect."

"Dealing with those evil places where Blood Intent Pills are concocted."

"To put it simply, your goal and the Star Alliance's goal are aligned."

Xiao Yi shook his head again, "Uninterested means uninterested, further discussion is pointless."

Xux Xing's brows furrowed and he said, "Why must you be like this?"

"In the past month, you have been able to sweep through these dens, destroying each one you find."

"It proves that your strength is extraordinary, and you are much more efficient than my Star Alliance."

"If we join forces, uprooting the Thousand Heroes Sect would be a simple task."

Xiao Yi's expression turned cold, "Move aside, I truly have urgent matters and do not wish to speak further with you."

"You…" Xux Xing's expression turned slightly ugly, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Alright," Xux Xing sighed, "Since you insist, I won't make it difficult for you."

With that, Xux Xing stepped aside and said, "Let me say one more thing."

"The existence of the Star Alliance is to prevent the East Six Counties from being destroyed by the hands of the Thousand Heroes Sect."

"We do not wish for the East Six Counties to fall into becoming a human purgatory."

"If one day you change your mind and wish to join, the Star Alliance welcomes you at any time."

Xiao Yi remained silent upon hearing this, his figure flashed, turning into a streak of light and departing.

At the spot, Xux Xing stared at the vanishing figure of Xiao Yi, his eyes narrowing.

...

At this moment, Xiao Yi had already gone far away.

To be honest, he did not expect the Star Alliance Leader to personally seek him out.

And as for Xux Xing's words, he was skeptical.

In his perception, Xux Xing was of the Earth Element Fifth Stage in cultivation.

At his age, to possess such cultivation, without a doubt, Xux Xing could definitely be considered among the ranks of supreme talents.

And quite a formidable one, at that.

Yet, this person did not join the Sky-splitting Sword Sect or go to the Royal Capital to join a major force.

Instead, he chose to remain in a remote place like the East Six Counties and became the leader of the Star Alliance.

This proved that either this person was exceedingly proud, or his plans were significant.

Most importantly, Xiao Yi saw a hint of ambition in his eyes.

Although young, Xux Xing was very shrewd and definitely skilled in strategic thinking.

Xiao Yi had no interest in dealing with such a person and did not want to get involved with the Star Alliance's affairs.

...

At this time, Xiao Yi had left Dongzhu County and arrived at the next county.

This county was named Dongyue County.

It was the fourth county among the East Six Counties.

Further on was Donglai County.

Following his method, Xiao Yi destroyed all the foundations for concocting the Blood Intent Pills in Dongyue County.

In just half a month, he captured 15 members of the Thousand Heroes Sect.

However, the Blood Intent Pills were not confiscated.

It seemed they had already been delivered to the Thousand Heroes Sect.

However, Xiao Yi did harvest a large number of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, some Demon Beast Essence Blood, and other Cultivation Items.

Those places where the Blood Intent Pills were concocted all belonged to some sects or forces, and they weren't weak.

Within these sects, there were also many disciples and deacons.

Naturally, there were also a lot of Cultivation Items.

Since Xiao Yi destroyed their hideouts, he naturally confiscated all these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Demon Beast Essence Blood.

Sweeping through four counties, nearly 60 forces had been destroyed.

The collective cultivation items from these forces amounted to a wealth that was nothing short of astounding.

Moreover, all of the captured individuals from the Thousand Heroes Sect were uniformly of the Earth Origin Eighth Layer cultivation.

Presumably, they were the notorious figures rumored to be within the Thousand Heroes Sect.

Of course, this also revealed the extent of the Thousand Heroes Sect's power.

Though they could not compare with the Flame Holy Sect, a Martial Arts Holy Land, nor did they possess too many high-end martial artists,

they definitely had a substantial number of Earth Origin Realm martial artists.

With that thought, Xiao Yi waved his hand grandly, and a surge of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy enveloped those 15 people.

Then, his figure flashed as he ascended, flying away through the air.

However, before he could leave the boundaries of Dongyue County, a regiment of people stopped him.

There were dozens in number, each clad in moon-colored attire, standing in neat and ordered ranks.

Clearly, they were well-trained.

At the same time, a middle-aged man dressed in brocade and luxurious clothes strode forward with the vigor of a dragon and the ferocity of a tiger.

"Prince Dongyue," Xiao Yi frowned.

Indeed, the man before him was Prince Dongyue.

The thirty-six Commandery Princes, as official figures, were well known by Xiao Yi, ruling over their respective counties.

These martial artists clothed in moon-colored attire and well-trained

were likely the Dongyue Guards under the command of Prince Dongyue.

"Sir, you have brazenly kidnapped people in my Dongyue County and annihilated numerous forces."

"And now you think to just walk away without any consequences?"

Prince Dongyue stared coldly at Xiao Yi.

With a wave of his hand, the Dongyue Guards surrounded Xiao Yi.

"In these past two months, your notoriety has soared, your rampage unbridled, your killing widespread."

"Perhaps it would have been excusable in other counties, but in my Dongyue County, it is not your turn to be so insolent."

"If you know what's good for you, surrender now."

With a thunderous shout from Prince Dongyue, an imposing aura bore down on Xiao Yi with crushing force.

Xiao Yi was, of course, unafraid.

Dongyue County was slightly stronger than Dongzhu County but still could not compare to the likes of the larger counties such as Fierce Tiger County and Black Tiger County.

Prince Dongyue was merely an Earth Origin Ninth Layer Martial Artist.

His Dongyue Guards were uniformly around the Second and Third Layer of Earth Element.

"Prince Dongyue, you've been quick to obstruct me," Xiao Yi said coldly.

"The disappearances in your Dongyue County have been occurring for nearly ten years."

"In that time, under your management, a large number of civilians and martial artists have gone missing or perished."

"And yet, you've done nothing. The disappearances have never ceased but have grown worse."

"This single failure of management, this dereliction of duty, is reason enough for me to capture you now."

Indeed, the disappearance incidents in Dongyue County had been ongoing for nearly a decade.

Just as Xiao Yi had anticipated, the closer he got to Donglai County, to the very heart of the Thousand Heroes Sect's domain,

the more severe the incidents became.

Moreover, Xiao Yi had checked at the Flame Martial Guard base in Black Tiger County and found that these disappearance incidents from Dongyue County had never been reported.

It was only the Flame Martial Guards patrolling the various counties who stumbled upon the matter a few years ago, and the details then recorded in the archives of the base.

And Xiao Yi's investigation in Dongyue County for the past half-month had revealed that the issue went far deeper than it seemed.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Prince Dongyue's complexion shifted as he spoke coldly.

"Don't presume that just because you're a member of the Star Alliance, you can cause such unwarranted trouble."

"Take him down," he ordered.

The dozens of Dongyue Guards immediately attacked.

"Hmph," Xiao Yi snorted coldly. Sword Qi erupted outwards.

The Dongyue Guards were all severely injured and thrown back.

Prince Dongyue, struck by a slash of Sword Qi, also spat blood, his face deathly pale.

"So strong, who exactly are you?" Prince Dongyue wore a look of wariness.

"Who I am is not your concern for now," Xiao Yi said coldly.

"The matters of today, I will settle with you in a few days."

"Just ensure that I don't find you implicated in those disappearances."

Having said that, Xiao Yi, carrying those 15 people, transformed into a streak of light and flew swiftly away.

Now, the sites in Dongyue County where Blood Intent Pills were refined had all been destroyed.

The next county would be Donglai County.

Meaning, Xiao Yi was ready to confront the Thousand Heroes Sect directly and get to the bottom of these disappearances.

At present, he naturally did not wish to waste time on unrelated matters.

Returning to Black Tiger County, Xiao Yi also locked up those 15 individuals in the dungeon.

In the next second, his figure flashed as he ascended, moving through the air.

His target, Donglai County, the Thousand Heroes Sect.

...
