Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2111: Chapter 2109: Rescued Along the Way

Half a day later.

In the Tianji region, within the Heavenly Mechanism Main Hall.

Xiao Yi’s figure suddenly descended from the sky.

He did not need to travel slowly but flew at full speed, making the journey much faster.

In just half a day, he had rushed back to the Tianji region from the central range.

Whoosh...

Xiao Yi’s figure flashed, landing steadily on the ground.

Whoosh...whoosh...whoosh...whoosh...

Just as Xiao Yi landed, a group of elders appeared around him out of thin air.

”Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun.”

The elders all had smiles on their faces.

”Hmm?” A hint of confusion and slight surprise flashed in Xiao Yi’s eyes.

He recognized each of these elders.

More than half of them were the Secluded Palace Masters he had seen in the Heavenly Mechanism Inheritance Land.

The rest, they were the Main Hall Masters within the Heavenly Mechanism Main Hall.

Each one was a renowned, long-established powerhouse.

The weakest among them were above the level of the Legendary Thirty Thousand Dao.

The breaths of the Secluded Elders were so strong that even Xiao Yi felt a tremble, as any one of them was no less than the level of Unmovable Thunder Mountain.

”Do the elders have something to discuss with me?” Xiao Yi asked in confusion.

”Nothing in particular.” Everyone shook their heads and chuckled, ”We just sensed the aura of Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun’s return and came out especially to see.”

An elder smiled and said, ”The future Master of the Main Hall of our Heavenly Mechanism Hall, the most outstanding young monster of today, no, the most outstanding monster of today in the Central Region.”

”Now that you’ve returned, it’s only right for us to come out to greet you.”

A Main Hall Master proudly smiled and said, ”Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun has greatly defeated the Little Evil Lord, which led to the furious response of the Evil Lord Mansion, causing all their powerhouses to emerge and evil cultivators from everywhere to come, setting up multiple layers of encirclement and ambushes.”

”In the end, they still couldn’t do anything to Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun.”

”This matter has now stirred the Central Region.”

”No one on this Central Region land is unaware of your renown now.”

Another Main Hall Master laughed and said, ”In just a little over half a day, the news has already spread from the southern range to all over.”

”Some even praise Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun as one of the most outstanding Eight Palace Martial Artists in history.”

Xiao Yi was taken aback for a moment.

He noticed that whereas the Secluded Palace Masters used to look at him with satisfaction, mainly as satisfaction with their successor,

Now, these Secluded Palace Masters had seriousness and recognition in their eyes.

It was not only recognition of him as a successor but also genuine recognition of him as a Martial Artist.

The approval in the eyes of the Main Hall Masters around was even more intense, even carrying a bit of fanaticism and respect.

For this future successor of the Master of the Main Hall, everyone harbored great admiration.

Just at this moment,

A Main Hall Master approached from afar, offering a salute as he came in front of Xiao Yi, cupping his hands.

”Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun, the Master of the Main Hall invites you.”

Hearing this, the surrounding Secluded Palace Masters and Main Hall Masters nodded, looking at Xiao Yi and saying, ”Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun, since the Master of the Main Hall invites you, we shall not take up your time.”

”When Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun is free, we shall speak further.”

The crowd cupped their hands and departed individually.

Some went back to seclusion, while others went about handling their affairs.

”Phew.” Xiao Yi let out a slight sigh of relief.

In truth, compared to interacting with such a lively crowd, he preferred a bit of quiet.

Xiao Yi looked at the Main Hall Master and cupped his hands, saying, ”I just returned to the Main Hall and still have some injuries, planning to enter seclusion for a period of time.”

”Could you convey to the Master of the Main Hall that I will seek him after I’ve recovered?”

”Naturally.” The Main Hall Master immediately replied, ”If Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun is injured, please heal first, and I will convey this to the Master of the Main Hall on your behalf.”

”Additionally, do you need any elders within the hall to assist Vice Hall Master Xiao Xun with healing?”

”That won’t be necessary.” Xiao Yi shook his head.

The Master of the Main Hall, hearing this, cupped his hands, offered a salute, and turned to leave.

Xiao Yi also turned around, preparing to head to the seclusion room.

But just at this moment, from a distance, several streaks of light came through the air.

The streaks of light landed in front of Xiao Yi in just a few breaths.

It was Guisha City Lord and Heartless Inn Master, with a group of heavenly talents like Ye Liu and Qing Lin behind them.

The Heartless Inn Master looked at Xiao Yi and was the first to smile, ”These little ones suffered minor injuries, so I took them to the Black Demon Hall to heal.”

”Look, their injuries just healed, and upon knowing you returned to the Heavenly Mechanism Region, they came looking for you.”

”I also happened to be looking for you, so I brought them along.”

Earlier, when Xiao Yi was hit by Evil Lord’s first palm, the palm wind’s aftershocks affected the group of heavenly talent monsters, sending them flying heavily.

However, their injuries were not severe.

Xiao Yi took half a day to rush back.

But the Heartless Inn Master brought them back to the Black Demon Hall, which took no more than an hour.

Obviously, the time it took for Xiao Yi to return was enough for Ye Liu and the other heavenly talents to stabilize their injuries.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Mechanism Region, Black Demon Territory, and Soul Domain are adjacent to each other.

This short distance is nothing in the perception of a strong one like the Heartless Inn Master.

Therefore, the moment Xiao Yi returned to the Heavenly Mechanism Main Hall, the Heartless Inn Master, far away in the Black Demon Main Hall, knew immediately.

”Something on your mind?” Xiao Yi glanced at the crowd and asked indifferently.

Ye Liu stepped forward first and said, ”Naturally, I’m here to express my gratitude to Brother Xiao.”

Ye Liu cupped his hands and said, ”Brother Xiao’s kindness today, Ye has remembered. If you ever need anything, Ye will surely repay with all his might.”

Ye Liu’s tone carried gratitude, yet his eyes were directly gazing into Xiao Yi’s eyes beneath the mask.

Ye Liu suddenly said, ”I’ve heard that Brother Xiao has been eliminating evil cultivators everywhere, traveling to countless regions in the Central Region.”

”I wonder if Brother Xiao has ever heard of the Wind Beast Emperor, a terrifying monster, rare indeed, with its wind control ability...”

”Never heard of it.” Xiao Yi shook his head, interrupting indifferently.

In his heart, he chuckled bitterly.

He knew that this kid Ye Liu was trying to probe him again.

”Oh, never heard of it?” Ye Liu chuckled awkwardly, and hearing the cold tone, he stopped his inquiries, cupped his hands, and stepped back.

”Thank you.” A direct thank you came from the crowd.

The only one who would speak so directly was Ran Qi.

However, at this moment, Ran Qi was full of fighting spirit, ”Originally, my only rivals were those two big freaks, but now there’s also you, the Black Robe Xiao Xun.”

Xiao Yi glanced at Ran Qi and directly ignored him.

”Thank you.” Lih Fengxing, Zhang Nanfeng, and other academic palace heavenly talents cupped their hands in thanks, one by one.

Xiao Yi nodded, not saying much.

”Uh, well.” Finally, a voice full of helplessness spoke.

Qing Lin looked at Xiao Yi, shrugged, and said, ”Although I was just saved incidentally, I still express my thanks.”

In Qing Lin’s view, he had no connection at all with this Black Robe Xiao Xun.

Being captured was only because the evil cultivator Great Elder had a brain spasm, and he was extremely unlucky to be caught incidentally.

Of course, he was also saved incidentally.

Xiao Yi glanced at Qing Lin, knowing Qing Lin’s character well, he didn’t mind, merely pursing his lips under the mask.

At this moment, Fang Shushu walked to Xiao Yi familiarly, smiling, ”Brother Xiao, I, Fang, owe you another big favor.”

”No need to worry about it.” Xiao Yi shook his head.

”Hahahaha.” Fang Shushu laughed heartily, ”Although I haven’t interacted with you much, Brother Xiao, I’ve known for a long time that you are such a free-spirited person, who doesn’t care about these reciprocations.”

”But.” Suddenly, Fang Shushu was full of curiosity and asked, ”I still want to know, the person who made Brother Xiao appear at the risk of almost certain death, who is it?”

”Oh right.” Fang Shushu added with a bitter smile, ”Though I have some connections with you, Brother Xiao, I have some self-awareness.”

”I don’t think I could make Brother Xiao risk such danger, nearly sacrificing yourself to save us.”

Fang Shushu laughed bitterly and shook his head.

Beside him, Lih Fengxing, Ye Liu, Ran Qi, and other heavenly talent monsters also showed confusion.

Obviously, they also felt that they had no connection with Black Robe Xiao Xun, and it was not worth such a risky rescue.

After a few seconds, all eyes suddenly gathered on Chu Rou and Muu Ning.

The two girls showed an embarrassed expression.

Fang Shushu’s face turned strange as he said, ”Could it be that the words of that evil cultivator’s old monster were true, and Brother Xiao was risking himself to save a beauty?”

The two girls’ faces instantly turned red.

After a while, Chu Rou was the first to look at Xiao Yi, hesitantly, ”Xiao Xun... um, sir.”

”Sorry, I have someone I love.”
