Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 137: Chapter 136: Bai Family’s Help

Whoosh, Xiao Yi’s figure flashed in place.

The next second, he instantly appeared in front of Murong Sha, who was struck flying.

”Not good,” Murong Sha was startled, knowing from that punch that the youth before him was extremely powerful.

He dared not be careless any longer and immediately mobilized his Protective True Qi.

However, Xiao Yi threw another punch, instantly breaking through his Protective True Qi, his hands already covered in Flame Gloves.

Amidst the amplification of the Spiritual Artifact, a vast expanse of Purple Flame surged out, enveloping Murong Sha.

”How can he be so strong?” exclaimed Murong Sha in extreme shock.

A Martial Artist’s body is not strong. Without Protective True Qi or mobilization, their strength drops by more than ninety percent.

Previously, Xiao Yi had blasted him away.

It was by virtue of his own body, comparable to the Fourth Layer of Mysterious Profundity, that he had forcibly shattered his Protective True Qi, and then with the explosion of the Purple Flame, he was blown away.

The same was true now.

Murong Sha tried to mobilize his Protective True Qi, but as soon as it emerged from his body, it was burnt by the surrounding Purple Flame, unable to be consolidated.

Or to put it more simply, the Purple Flame and his True Qi were consuming each other.

Amidst such a bizarre situation, he dared not make any further moves.

He could only passively face and keep an eye on Xiao Yi.

”Murong Sha, I’ll ask you one more time, do you have any proof?” asked Xiao Yi coldly.

”I...” Murong Sha was at a loss for words, not daring to speak carelessly.

The vast Purple Flame covered the area around Xiao Yi and Murong Sha within ten meters.

Like a firewall, it deterred anyone from approaching.

Including the guards of Shengbao Trading House and Murong Yin.

Murong Yin, just a Sixth Layer Martial Artist, dared not act as even Murong Sha couldn’t counter Yi Xiao’s Purple Flame.

The surrounding guests watched in horror.

”Could Purple Flame Yi Xiao really be this powerful?”

”Murong Sha is a Sixth Layer Martial Artist, and yet he is forced into silence.”

The guests discussed in surprise.

At that moment, amidst the vast Purple Flame, Murong Sha’s face fluctuated as he said, ”Purple Flame, everyone knows that you stole the goods that time; what’s the use of your denial?”

Xiao Yi sneered and retorted, ”What do you think?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he dispersed the surrounding Purple Flame and said coldly, ”Shengbao Trading House, since you have no evidence, if you dare to block my way again, I truly will kill.”

Saying this, he casually turned and left.

None of the Martial Artists dared to stop him.

Murong Sha and Murong Yin could only watch him leave effortlessly, not daring to make any move.

In fact, Murong Sha, although unable to gather his Protective True Qi, still possessed the strength of the Sixth Layer of Mysterious Profundity.

If he dared to fight to the end, resisting the Purple Flame, perhaps at the cost of severe injuries, he could capture Xiao Yi.

However, he did not dare.

Xiao Yi’s thunderous actions had completely shocked him.

...

Outside Baiwu City.

Bai Family Master looked at Xiao Yi in surprise and said, ”Yi Xiao, young brother, what is your level of Cultivation?”

”Young yet so powerful.”

Xiao Yi asked in confusion, ”Does Bai Family Master not see my cultivation?”

Bai Family Master shook his head.

”Hmm?” Xiao Yi felt puzzled. ”Isn’t Bai Family Master a renowned Mystic Breakthrough Realm Martial Artist? Can’t you see my Cultivation Realm?”

According to the effects of the Ghost Mask, it should conceal one’s aura and cultivation from those who were a Great Realm higher.

At this moment, Bai Family Master said, ”Yi Xiao, young brother, you must have some treasure that conceals your aura, and it’s no ordinary artifact—it’s a significant treasure.”

”Significant treasure?” Xiao Yi looked puzzled.

Bai Family Master nodded and said, ”If I’m not mistaken, it’s that mask on your face. There’s clearly a Prohibition on the mask which prevents me from sensing your aura.”

Xiao Yi had thought that the Ghost Mask was, at most, a Subspirit Artifact. But now, seeing that even someone at the level of Bai Family Master couldn’t penetrate its effects, he had to reassess its effectiveness and grade.

At this point, Bai Family Master laughed and said, ”Yi Xiao, young brother, don’t misunderstand. I just feel that since you possess a significant treasure, my Bai Family doesn’t even know what to offer in return to express our gratitude, nor do we know what would catch your eye.”

Xiao Yi laughed and said, ”Bai Family Master need not worry. If you truly wish to thank me, help me find some Demon Beast Essence Blood.”

”Demon Beast Essence Blood?” Bai Family Master was taken aback and said, ”Such common items, how can they be considered fitting as a token of gratitude?”

Xiao Yi said, ”The amount I need is quite large.”

”Quantity is large?” Bai Family Master asked in confusion. ”Demon Beast Essence Blood, used for medicinal baths, can enhance the speed of cultivation. But usually, one bottle is enough for a long time; more would be useless.”

”Oh, right.” Bai Family Master said, ”You are an Alchemist; there must be other refining uses for it.”

”Hmm.” Xiao Yi nodded.

”Well then.” Bai Family Master earnestly said, ”Come back with me to the Bai Family residence. We have quite a stockpile, all from Fourth-level Demon Beasts.”

”Additionally, there are several trading companies in Four Seasons City. The Bai Family will fully support your acquisition, and we will cover all expenses.”

Xiao Yi bowed his hands in thanks and said, ”Then I thank Bai Family Master, but I won’t be visiting the Bai Family just now.”

”Hmm?” Bai Family Master looked puzzled.

Xiao Yi gave a wry smile and said, ”Right now, the people from the Treasure Trading Company of Hundred Martial City see me as a thorn in their side, a nail in their eye. My dealings with them have been far from cordial, it’s better not to get too close to the Bai Family to avoid implicating you.”

Bai Family Master frowned and said, ”What kind of talk is that, Yi Xiao, young brother?”

”The first time I met you, you saved my daughter’s life. Aside from a mere five hundred thousand taels, my Bai Family has nothing else to offer in return; we already owe you a favor.”

”Today, with your help, I was able to get the Starlight Stone, owing you another favor.”

”My Bai Family considers you a friend, and we do not concern ourselves with such matters.”

”Moreover,” Bai Family Master declared proudly, ”the Bai Family is not to be trifled with.”

”I know you seized goods from the Treasure Trading Company, although I do not know why. But the Northern Mountain Murong Family wouldn’t trouble us over such minor matters for the Bai Family.”

Xiao Yi laughed, a family protected by a Mystic Breakthrough Realm Martial Artist spoke with confidence.

Yet he still shook his head and said, ”I still have urgent matters to attend to, truly no time to go to the Bai Family just now. Bai Family Master, please start the acquisition of the Demon Beast Essence Blood first, I will visit at a later date.”

”If you have urgent matters, then I won’t insist,” Bai Family Master said, ”Just remember, the Bai Family considers you a friend. If you’re ever in need, feel free to come to the Bai Family, you are always welcome, and we will support you with all our might.”

”Thank you, Bai Family Master,” Xiao Yi thanked him, bowed his hands, and said, ”With that, I take my leave.”

As the voice fell, Xiao Yi’s figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, bolting into the distance.

...

After Xiao Yi left, Bai Family Master took on a serious expression and told Housekeeper Bai behind him, ”After returning to the Bai Family, I intend to enter seclusion.”

”You all, mobilize all the power of the Bai Family to purchase limitless amounts of Demon Beast Essence Blood.”

”After a month, I want to see a satisfying amount.”

”Yes, Family Head,” the Bai Family Martial Artists responded.
