Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 2178: Chapter 2175: Dongfang Family Master

Senior Luoo’s Martial Arts Saint Pill was also an Extreme Saint Pill.

His Martial Arts Saint Pill could have saved Xiao Yi back then with a hundred percent certainty.

It’s just a pity his Martial Arts Saint Pill had already been used long ago and was gone.

”Extreme Saint Pill? Is there any difference?” Xiao Yi’s face was full of doubt.

”By my judgment, Senior Luoo’s strength should be about the same as the Asura Hall Master and the Demon Hunting Main Hall Master.”

Senior Luoo shook his head. ”Our strength is about the same.”

”But the Martial Arts Saint Pills are different.”

”I can only say that the Martial Arts Saint Pills of myself and the Saint Lord are more potent, hence they’re called Extreme Saint Pills.”

”Why are there these differences?” Xiao Yi pressed.

”They have nothing to do with strength,” Senior Luoo replied. ”They’re related to Realm.”

”That’d be a long lecture. Want to listen?”

”Forget it then.” Xiao Yi smiled. ”I just need a rough idea.”

”As for fully understanding it, once my Cultivation Realm gets there, I’ll naturally figure it out myself.”

”Mm.” Senior Luoo nodded.

”That kid left?” Xiao Yi asked softly.

The conversation should end here.

Senior Luoo shook his head. ”The talk can end.”

”But the old man’s goal hasn’t been achieved yet.”

Goal?

A flash of light flickered in Senior Luoo’s hand, and the Black Demon Hall’s Main Hall Token appeared out of thin air.

”Take the General Order before you go.”

”Didn’t I already say...” Xiao Yi wanted to refuse.

”It’s all the same.” Senior Luoo said softly. ”Whether you’re willing to inherit the Black Demon Hall still depends on your own will.”

”If you absolutely refuse, can the old man really force you?”

”The Vice Order has always been on you, and the old man has already publicly announced that you’ll take over.”

”There is only one Vice Order, and it can only be given to the Main Hall’s successor.”

”But the General Order has two pieces, both carried by the Master of the Main Hall. They can be gifted to others as protection.”

”At the same time, anyone who presents the General Order is treated as if the Master of the Main Hall has come in person.”

”I’ll keep one of the two General Orders; the other, you take. Otherwise, wouldn’t the old man’s public announcement earlier become a joke?”

”This...” Xiao Yi hesitated.

”What, you want the old man to be seen as a joke?” Senior Luoo said irritably.

”Same words as before: you accept the Token, but whether you’re willing to completely inherit still depends on yourself.”

”Taking or not taking the General Order doesn’t affect you in any way.”

”All right.” Xiao Yi nodded.

The eight Main Hall Vice Hall Tokens were still on him right now.

He’d tried to return them, but none of the Masters of the Main Hall were willing to take them back, so there was nothing he could do.

Xiao Yi accepted the General Order, cupped his fists. ”This kid takes his leave.”

”Good.” Senior Luoo nodded. ”Oh, right.”

Another flash of light glimmered in Senior Luoo’s hand, and he produced two more Tokens.

”These are Old Man Soul’s and Heavenly Mechanism’s General Orders.”

”Since you’ve accepted the old man’s General Order, it won’t hurt to take two more.”

”This...” Xiao Yi’s heart skipped. He felt something wasn’t quite right.

Senior Luoo said solemnly, ”Same words again: this doesn’t affect anything.”

”Fine.” Xiao Yi took them as well, cupped his fists, and turned to leave.

Just at this moment.

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

Seven streaks of light, seven figures, rushed over at high speed.

Before the people arrived, an angry shout had already come.

”Luoo, the old man already guessed you’d pull this move.” The Asura Hall Master was like a streak of light between heaven and earth, his aura fierce and overwhelming, arriving first.

The seven figures were naturally the seven Masters of the Main Hall.

At this moment, the Asura Hall Master and the others were all full of rage.

Senior Luoo’s face chilled as he looked unhappily at the Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master and the Soul Hall Master.

The Heavenly Mechanism Palace Master and the Soul Hall Master both gave bitter smiles.

”What are you looking at them for?” the Demon Hunting Main Hall Master said coldly.

”You thought those two alone could stop us? What a joke.”

The Flame Hall Master sneered. ”And then you, Luoo, get to seek out Xiao Yi alone, is that it?”

Listening to their words, Xiao Yi’s heart gave a jolt. ”Crap, I walked right into it.”

Xiao Yi reacted in an instant.

The Asura Hall Master let out a cold laugh. ”Very nice of you, Luoo, using these tricks on a young junior. You’re not even ashamed?”

Senior Luoo’s eyes narrowed, his coldness fully revealed. ”What tricks did the old man use? Everything I said was nothing but the truth.”

”Some ’truth’.” The Asura Hall Master said coldly. ”First you say you joined forces with the Saint Lord for Xiao Yi’s sake.”

”Then you say you don’t want this Xiao Yi kid to take the risk of swallowing the Ten Thousand Poison Fruit.”

”Then you say it’s all to save him, this Xiao Yi kid.”

”Sounds nice, but how is that any different from emotional manipulation?”

”You know perfectly well this kid isn’t unreasonable. On the contrary, he cares a lot about us old fellows.”

”You hit his heart with every word, and then you whip out the Main Hall Token for him to accept. Everything flows naturally.”

”With Xiao Yi’s personality, he can’t bear to disappoint you. He can’t bear not to take it.”

The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master’s eyes went cold. ”By the Eight Palaces’ regulations, once the Master of the Main Hall grants the Vice Hall Master Token, it is considered that the recipient is set as the successor, the next Master of the Main Hall.”

”Once the recipient holds both Vice Order and General Order, it means he has agreed to take the position and fully inherit the title of Master of the Main Hall.”

”This Xiao Yi kid can’t go back on it now, can he?”

”What?” Xiao Yi’s expression changed.

”Hmph.” The Wind Shattering Palace Master snorted coldly. ”This is a rule from the Ancient days, from when the Eight Palaces were first formed. It hasn’t been used for countless years, so of course you wouldn’t know, Xiao Yi.”

”Luoo is using it to trick you.”

”Utter nonsense!” Senior Luoo flicked his sleeve, erupting in rage.

”Stop pretending.” The Asura Hall Master snorted coldly.

Everyone’s gaze turned to Xiao Yi in unison. ”Kid, there’s no reason you took Luoo’s General Order but won’t take ours.”

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

One General Order after another flew out, stopping in front of Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi’s face twitched.

”Kid.” The Flame Hall Master said discontentedly. ”You’re not going to be that unkind, are you?”

”You’ll take Luoo’s General Order but not ours?”

The Asura Hall Master said in a deep voice, ”Take them first. Just like Luoo said, this doesn’t affect your own will.”

”Whether you inherit or not, you can decide later.”

Xiao Yi gave a bitter smile and nodded, taking each General Order beside him.

”I really didn’t expect that before I set off, all of you would still have to scheme against this kid once more.” Xiao Yi gave a wry laugh and shook his head.

”All right, this kid takes his leave.” Xiao Yi cupped his fists and turned to go.

”Where are you planning to go train?” someone asked.

”Train?” Xiao Yi muttered, shrugging. ”No idea.”

”Might not even be training.” Xiao Yi smiled.

”I’ve been busy for so many years. It’s about time to relax a bit, maybe just wander around.”

As his words fell.

Xiao Yi’s figure flickered, and he left the mountain.

Back at the original spot, Xiao Yi looked at Yiyi and the Senior Swordswoman. ”Let’s go.”

The three of them set off once more.

Suddenly... at the edge of space in the distance, a burst of explosions.

Space suddenly shattered.

A figure forcibly broke through the Eight Palace Elite’s Space Locking, Sky-breaking as he arrived.

”Hm? What a powerful aura.” Xiao Yi frowned.

On the mountain, the eight Masters of the Main Hall looked faintly calm, with a hint of gravity. ”Dongfang Family Master?”

...
