Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 657: Chapter 657: Fire Attribute Supreme Treasure

Leaving the boudoir, Su Zhenxuan and the others quickly gathered around.

Xiao Yi nodded indifferently and said, ”Young Master Su is already out of danger.”

”I have urgent matters to attend to, so I won’t stay any longer.”

With that, his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot.

...

After leaving Medicine King Valley, Xiao Yi changed back into his clothes, took off the Ghost Mask, and went directly back to Sky-splitting Sword Sect.

In the bamboo forest pavilion, Xiao Yi approached a woman.

Xiao Yi didn’t beat around the bush, and directly expressed his intentions.

”Crack.” The woman was sipping her fragrant tea when, upon hearing this, her teacup shattered instantly in her hand.

”Central Region? Who told you these things?”

”Divine Martial King?” The woman’s face was as cold as frost, staring straight at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi was startled and shook his head.

The woman said solemnly, ”Don’t even think about it; that space turbulence is too dangerous.”

Xiao Yi removed the look of shock from his face and looked at the woman directly, ”It’s very dangerous. Would Senior Swordswoman dare to venture there?”

”I...” The woman hesitated.

”Yes.” Xiao Yi spoke first, ”Senior Swordswoman needn’t lie to me. You will definitely go.”

The woman nodded, ”I will indeed go.”

”But you are not sure,” Xiao Yi said solemnly.

”So what if I am not sure.” The woman stood up, sighed, then turned around, her back facing Xiao Yi.

Her beautiful eyes stared straight into the deepest part of the bamboo forest where the Sect shrine lay.

”The will of the forefathers of Sky-splitting Sword Sect must be fulfilled by someone.”

With that, the woman turned back to face Xiao Yi, and said softly, ”Since you know about the Central Region, you must also be aware of the situation here in the Eastern Domain.”

”Someone must go to the Central Region and take control of the last bit of Martial Arts Power to achieve the Heavenly Extreme Realm.”

”If one could step into the Martial God Realm, it would be possible to completely eradicate that space turbulence.”

”Otherwise, the Eastern Domain will only decline further and fall completely.”

”What if you fail, Senior?” Xiao Yi asked solemnly. ”What if you cannot overcome that space turbulence?”

”Fail?” The woman smiled faintly. ”In the future, with you protecting the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, I have nothing to worry about.”

”What if I say no?” Xiao Yi smiled lightly.

”What do you mean?” The woman furrowed her brows.

Xiao Yi chuckled, ”It’s very likely that just after you leave, I will follow right behind.”

”The Senior should know, I’ve always been a restless person.”

”With such a fascinating place as the Central Region, I’m definitely going.”

”Nonsense.” The woman scolded, ”Fascinating? Do you know how much danger that fascination involves?”

Xiao Yi was about to retort.

Just then, Bai Bingxue hurriedly walked over, ”Master, someone is here to see you.”

The woman, still glaring furiously at Xiao Yi, did not turn her head and snapped, ”No.”

Bai Bingxue was taken aback, then said, ”But...it’s the Hall Master, Senior.”

”The Hall Master?” The woman raised her eyebrows. ”What does he want with me here?”

”Let him come.”

The woman glared angrily at Xiao Yi and said, ”We’ll settle accounts later.”

With that, the woman angrily sat down, slightly restraining the anger on her face.

After a while, the Hall Master slowly strutted in.

First, he cast a meaningful glance at Xiao Yi, then turned to the woman.

”Swordswoman, why such an angry look? Did someone upset you?” The Hall Master asked with a chuckle.

”Hmph.” The woman snorted coldly.

”Speak quickly, I am waiting to teach this youngster a lesson.”

The Hall Master smiled and said, ”It’s nothing serious, just came to inform you that in a few days, my successor will head to the Central Region.”

”Hmm? The kid, Purple Flame?” The woman looked at the Hall Master in surprise.

”To challenge that space turbulence is to risk nine deaths out of ten.”

”The Central Region, too, is filled with crises.”

”Are you willing to let him go?”

”What’s there to be unwilling about?” The Hall Master waved his hand and said, ”With such supreme talent, if I forcibly keep him in the Eastern Domain, what’s the difference between harming him?”

”Most importantly, you should know that the danger level at the Life and Death Barrier is not any less than crossing that space turbulence.”

Upon hearing this, the woman’s face suddenly changed, and she glanced at Xiao Yi.

”Oh, right, I forgot to talk about the main issue.” The Hall Master spoke as if he hadn’t seen the change in the woman’s expression.

”My successor is about to leave.”

”I was wondering if this Heavenly Talent of your Sword Sect is also going to the Central Region.”

”After all, he is the other twin.”

”Hmm?” The woman suddenly turned her head back and stared straight at the Hall Master, her expression icy cold.

The Hall Master raised an eyebrow and said, ”Swordswoman girl, why are you looking at this old man like that?”

The woman said solemnly, ”Hall Master, it has been a long time since you last visited my bamboo forest, hasn’t it?”

”Do not tell me that you are the one who informed Xiao Yi about the Central Region.”

”I...” The Hall Master was taken aback and was just about to shake his head to deny it.

The woman was instantly furious, and the Hall Master’s slight hesitation had basically admitted it.

”Bastard, it really was you, weren’t you here to be a mediator?” The woman exploded, ”Get out of the bamboo forest immediately.”

”Swordswoman girl, let this old man explain...” the Hall Master hurriedly said.

”Are you leaving or not? Or do I need to personally blast you out?” A surge of Cold Frost Sword Qi condensed in the woman’s hand.

”Bai Bingxue, see the guest out.”

Bai Bingxue hurried over, panicking, ”Hall Master, Senior, Master is really angry, perhaps it’s best you leave now.”

”I...sigh.” The Hall Master sighed, glanced at Xiao Yi helplessly, and then left.

Once the Hall Master had gone, the Cold Frost Sword Qi in the woman’s hand gradually dissipated.

”Speak, what happened?” The woman sat down again and looked at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi hadn’t expected the woman to burst into such anger and stammered, ”That...”

”A few days ago, I happened to run into the Purple Flame kid.”

”I originally wanted to challenge him to a fight, but then he told me about his going to the Central Region.”

”Later, it was the Hall Master who explained it to me.”

”I see.” The woman nodded and looked straight at Xiao Yi, ”Boy, do you really want to go to the Central Region?”

”Yes.” Xiao Yi nodded.

”Then go.” The woman smiled and said, ”The Sect, I will continue to guard it myself.”

Before she knew it, the anger on the woman’s face had dissipated.

In its place, there was a smile filled with anticipation.

”You’re willing to let me go?” Xiao Yi was startled.

”Yes.” The woman nodded, smiling, ”I was just scaring that old man just now.”

”Hmph, if his successor goes to the Eastern Domain, you go too.”

”The Heavenly Talent of my Sky-splitting Sword Sect is certainly not inferior to that Purple Flame kid.”

”Most importantly, he’s right.” The woman sighed and shook her head.

”With your monstrous talent, far surpassing mine, it cannot be stifled here; if you can go to the Central Region, the chances of reaching the Martial God Realm would be far higher than mine.”

”And indeed, the danger level of the Life and Death Barrier is not lower than going to the Central Region.”

”Thank you, Senior.” Xiao Yi’s face brightened.

”Don’t be hasty.” The woman waved her hand and said, ”If I’m not wrong, the reason the Hall Master dared to let that Purple Flame kid go to the Central Region is because of the four powerful heavenly flames that kid possessed, as well as the mysterious mask protecting him, a treasure of the Heaven and Earth level.”

The woman thought Xiao Yi only had the Ghost Mask, a Heaven and Earth Treasure.

She didn’t know about the existence of the Heavenly Mechanism Sacred Plate.

Nor did she know that the Ghost Mask actually had no protective effect.

However, her guess was correct.

”Boy, you are no less capable than he is.” The woman smiled as she looked at Xiao Yi.

”Do you remember the furnace that Tianxing kid had?”

”The Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace?” Xiao Yi asked, puzzled.

”Yes.” The woman smiled, ”Do you know why Bai Mohan and the Sect Master coveted that furnace?”

”Wasn’t it said to be a refining furnace more advanced than the Medicine Tower in Medicine King Valley?” Xiao Yi said.

”Indeed.” The woman nodded and said, ”But the Sect Master and others knew only that it was a Ninth Grade or higher Medicine Furnace.”

”However, I know that it is the strongest Supreme Treasure between heaven and earth... a Heaven and Earth Treasure.”

”What?” Xiao Yi’s face showed shock.

The woman smiled, ”The Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace, it is said, stores the eight Dragon Flames emitted by the first Flame Dragon at the birth of heaven and earth.”

”This is the foremost Fire Attribute Treasure in the world.”
