Soul Emperor Martial God

"Outrageous," Wan Jianyi barked coldly.

"When did it become your turn to slander Captain Yee Xiu?"

Xiao Yi replied coldly, "I'd rather be slandering than stating the fact."

"Slander or truth," Yee Xiu said gravely.

"In any case, you must now step back, this is an order."

As his words fell, a magnificent aura emerged out of nowhere.

The sword momentum that had originally restrained the Thousand Heroes Sect Martial Artists was instantly shattered.

"Sword momentum?" Xiao Yi frowned.

Yee Xiu, a Heavenly Origin Sixth Layer Martial Artist.

The name of the Sky Night Sword was not unwarranted.

He naturally had sword momentum as well.

"What if I don't step back?" Xiao Yi stepped forward, and a terrifying sword momentum thunderously descended.

The collision of two sword momenta.

In an instant, it caused the Spiritual Energy within the Thousand Heroes Sect to run wild, and storms formed high above.

Of course, compared to the sword momentum controlled by Xiao Yi leveraging the full Sword Dao Knowledge of the Sky-splitting Sword Demon.

Yee Xiu's sword momentum was undoubtedly much weaker.

Yee Xiu frowned, "What a domineering sword momentum."

"This must be the rumored Sword Dao techniques of the predecessor Sky-splitting Sword Demon."

"Deputy Commander Xiao Yi, I'll say it one more time."

"Step back immediately, otherwise, we will have to forcefully capture you back to the base."

As Yee Xiu finished speaking, hundreds of Flame Martial Guards around him each drew their weapons.

The weapons were uniformly pointed at Xiao Yi.

Even the original six Captains did the same.

Flame Martial Guards, absolutely obedient, follow orders to the letter while on missions.

Xiao Yi's face looked extremely grim. He clenched his teeth, and his aura suddenly dissipated.

The sword momentum also dispersed simultaneously.

Naturally, he could not truly battle against all the Flame Martial Guards surrounding him.

Clenching his fist, Xiao Yi glared coldly at Yee Xiu.

"Captain Yee Xiu, you had better be here to stop me because you truly don't want chaos in the East Six Counties."

"Otherwise, if I find out you have another purpose,"

"To cover up some sordid matters,"

"I will not let this go."

After speaking, Xiao Yi's figure flashed, and he left the Thousand Heroes Sect.

...

The arrival of Yee Xiu and the two other True Commanders,

Indeed surprised Xiao Yi.

Of course, Xiao Yi was unable to determine whether the three knew of the sordid affairs of the Thousand Heroes Sect or if they truly were covering for them.

If so, things would be troublesome.

Currently, Xiao Yi was heading toward the Star Alliance.

The base of the Star Alliance was located within Donglai County.

Within just a few hours, Xiao Yi reached the Star Alliance and found Xuz Xing.

"My lord, ah no, Deputy Commander Xiao Yi," Xuz Xing greeted with a face full of joy upon seeing Xiao Yi.

"Did you come to our Star Alliance today, is there something you need our help with?"

"If so, Deputy Commander Xiao Yi, just say the word, and the entire Star Alliance will spare no effort."

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "No, it's nothing major."

"Just came to chat."

Entering the Council Hall of the Star Alliance.

Xuz Xing commanded the attendants to serve fragrant tea, and five Half-step Heavenly Origin elders sat with solemn expressions.

The six people looked toward Xiao Yi, waiting for him to speak.

Xiao Yi sipped his fragrant tea and said, "I came here this time to also inquire about the affairs of the Star Alliance."

Xuz Xing asked, "May I ask what exactly Deputy Commander Xiao Yi wants to know?"

Xiao Yi said, "Everything."

"Everything?" Xuz Xing was momentarily startled.

"Yes," Xiao Yi nodded.

"About everything since the establishment of the Star Alliance to the present, for the past 15 years."

Xuz Xing frowned and said, "That's not something that can be summarized in a few words."

"Then just focus on the key points," Xiao Yi said indifferently.

"All the major events of the past 15 years."

"Eh," Xuz Xing hesitated, then nodded.

A silence ensued as Xuz Xing gathered his thoughts.

It took a while before he began to speak slowly.

Several hours later, Xuz Xing reached events from 10 years ago.

Xiao Yi had been silent all along, merely listening quietly and occasionally sipping fragrant tea.

Until now, Xuz Xing had spoken of hundreds of matters.

Yet, none had provided Xiao Yi with any useful information.

At that moment, an elder at the Half-step Heavenly Origin suddenly interrupted, "Hold on."

"Alliance Leader, there was also a significant incident ten years ago."

"Oh?" Xuz Xing's face showed confusion, "What happened?"

That elder said, "Ten years ago, the Flame Martial Guard once encircled the Thousand Heroes Sect."

"Oh?" Xiao Yi's eyes lit up.

Xuz Xing then expressed surprise, "Really? Why don't I know about this?"

The elder waved his hand, "You were only a few years old at that time, not yet the Star Alliance Leader."

"And this was a secret operation by the Flame Martial Guard, and it was executed very swiftly."

"Back then, only a few major powers and some upper-level martial artists knew of it."

"However, the operation was suddenly dropped without explanation."

"What happened?" Xiao Yi pressed for answers.

"I don't know," the elder shook his head.

"The encirclement by the Flame Martial Guard was fast, their actions were swift, but their withdrawal was also rapid."

"Afterward, they specifically concealed the incident, without any announcement."

"As for the reason, no one is clear."

Xiao Yi frowned and said, "Never mind, let Xuz Xing continue."

Xuz Xing nodded and continued narrating the events of the recent years.

Time gradually passed.

A day later, Xuz Xing stopped speaking.

The significant events that had occurred in the East Six Counties over the past fifteen years had all been discussed.

And Xiao Yi had not acquired the information he deemed useful.

At that moment, Xuz Xing asked, "Deputy Commander Xiao Yi has asked about our Star Alliance twice."

"Is there any question or uncertainty?"

"If so, feel free to inform me, perhaps I can clarify it for you directly."

Xiao Yi shook his head and smiled lightly, "Not at all."

"I'm just idly passing the time these last couple of days, listening to events to kill time."

"Ah?" Xuz Xing was stunned, his face twitched.

The five elders also showed visible frustration.

"Heh heh." Xiao Yi chuckled, "Alright, I'm leaving now."

"Oh? So soon?" Xuz Xing smiled, "I was hoping Deputy Commander Xiao Yi would stay a few more days at the Star Alliance."

Xiao Yi replied indifferently, "I'm planning to leave East Six Counties."

"Leaving East Six Counties?" The smiles on the faces of Xuz Xing and others suddenly froze.

The abrupt cessation was almost too painful to witness.

"Wasn't Deputy Commander Xiao Yi going to deal with the Thousand Heroes Sect?" the people hurriedly asked.

"I'm sorry," Xiao Yi said solemnly, "An unexpected issue came up, and I'm temporarily unable to confront them."

"But, regarding the Blood Intent Pill, I will continue the investigation."

"Additionally, Alliance Leader Xuz Xing, if possible, I might invite you to the Royal Capital in a few days."

"Oh?" Confusion mixed with urgency on Xuz Xing's face.

"I still lack some evidence," Xiao Yi lightly said.

"When the evidence is sufficient, I will have you come to the Royal Capital."

"I will personally seek justice for East Six Counties."

"Really?" Xuz Xing rejoiced.

"Really." Xiao Yi nodded.

After speaking, Xiao Yi turned around, preparing to leave.

However, just at that moment, a figure from outside the Star Alliance rapidly approached.

It was a scout of the Star Alliance.

"What's the rush? Don't you realize there's a distinguished guest here?" Xuz Xing rebuked.

The scout quickly said, "Leader, there's been a major incident."

The five elders shouted angrily, "Speak clearly, what do you mean by 'the Leader has been in a major incident'?"

"It's not the Leader; something happened outside!"

"What happened?" Xuz Xing asked.

The scout quickly reported, "The Thousand Heroes Sect was attacked by the Black Demon Hall. Their sect has been destroyed, and there are heavy casualties among their martial artists."

"What?" Xuz Xing was shocked, "When did this happen?"

"Just a few hours ago."

"Perfect," Xuz Xing looked delighted.

"The Black Demon Hall, why would they attack the Thousand Heroes Sect unprovoked?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brows.

The next second, Xiao Yi's figure flashed, he controlled the air and flew toward the Thousand Heroes Sect.

...

The third update.
