Heaven Slaughter Stars - C99
“Brother, you still haven’t told me your name?” Ling Xue, upon seeing Xuanyuan Zilong standing there by himself, could not help but pout.
“My name is Xuanyuan Zilong.” Xuanyuan Zilong returned to his senses and replied.
“Then I’ll call you brother Zi Long from now on. Can you come and chat with me often? I’m always alone. It’s so boring. ” Ling Xue said expectantly. Always alone? Xuanyuan Zilong had taken note of the tone in which Ling Xue was speaking. In other words, she wasn’t sometimes the only one he was thinking about. In that moment, many thoughts flashed through Xuanyuan Zilong’s mind.
“Sure, but it’s very late today. Big brother has to go back now.” Xuanyuan Zilong said.
“So fast? Alright then, but brother Zilong must remember to come visit me often.” Ling Xue was reluctant to part with her.
“…”
It was already midnight when he returned to his residence. The Starlord once again appeared by Xuanyuan Zilong’s side, doing what a personal maid should do. Although Xuanyuan Zilong had the help of his soul space and was able to know a lot of things, he had only lived for twenty years in the end. There were still many things he didn’t know.
Upon hearing his master’s story, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes, and he said, “If that is the case, then this girl must have been born with an innate constitution. I have heard others mention it before, if a person with an innate constitution died and turned into a Yin Spirit, under certain conditions, he would be able to absorb the light element and reconstruct his body, and once successfully reconstruct his body, he would become an existence comparable to a holy being.”
An existence comparable to the most sacred of beings?” The power of a saint was already a lot greater in this universe, but if compared to the number of races in this universe, it was not even one in a trillion. Therefore, a saint was already not a low achievement, and if it was placed in the hands of ordinary people, they would definitely be supreme experts.
Her death also seems very strange. If someone first murdered her, and then helped her reconstruct her Light Body, and then controlled it, it would be equivalent to having a subordinate of the most powerful, and one with great potential. This time, a lot of people were completely focused on her. The Starlord said slowly. Actually, with her strength as a Seven Star Heavenly Emperor, other than Xuanyuan Zilong and the people around him, it would be very difficult for her to affect an expert like Zang Jun. If Xuanyuan Zilong was not her master, even if Xuanyuan Zilong was also a Titled Heavenly Emperor, Zhaojun would not necessarily pay attention to him …
Thinking about it this way, Xuanyuan Zilong felt that it was very possible. Thinking about the fear in Ling Xue’s heart when she mentioned Grand Princess Ling Shuang, the doubt in his heart grew even stronger. If Grand Princess Ling Shuang was behind all of this, then this woman’s viciousness would make people shiver.
He had never wanted to deal with the dirty affairs of the Tianwu Empire, as sympathy could not be eaten as rice. Moreover, from a different perspective, this kind of thing did not matter much; it could be said that in order to become stronger, countless people would use different methods, but some would be more gentle while others would be more intense.
As long as it wasn’t happening by his side, Xuanyuan Zilong wouldn’t care about such boring matters. But this time he was out to play, and he felt that this matter might be related to an empire. It would be quite fun, so he was a little interested.
Tianwu Kingdom Imperial Palace, Imperial Study.
Ling Shuang. Prad was sitting at his desk in a fiery red tunic, examining a desk full of papers. He looked like he’d slept through the night. After a long while, Ling Shuang finally managed to recover. Plard yawned, stretched his jade arms, and immediately, the plump jade rabbit in front of his chest showed up with a soul-stirring look.
“Sigh, I’m so tired.” Ling Shuang. Prad got up and took out a snow-white pearl. She chanted a few incantations and saw that the white pearl was shining brightly like rain. She immediately felt refreshed, and all the fatigue in her body disappeared.
A few months ago, her father, Emperor Jessie of the Tianwu Empire. Prad died of ineffectiveness, and the ten-year-old Crown Prince Kyle. Pratt ascended the throne. As the Grand Princess, she had assumed the responsibility of a secondary nation, opening the curtain and taking over the political scene. It could be said that the one who was actually in control of the entire Sky Martial Empire was not her young brother, but her, Lingshuang. Pratt.
Of course, this was all just on the surface. Tianwu Empire was a subordinate imperial court of the Tianwu Sect, and the true ownership naturally belonged to the Tianwu Sect. However, in the Tianwu Sect, the true upper echelons would not care about these small matters. Although the Fallen family was not considered large in the Tianwu Sect, they still had some authority, and thus, the entire Tianwu Empire was under their control.
At this moment, the sun had just risen and the sky was dyed red. Standing under the morning glow, Prad’s eyes reflected a rainbow of colors. It was a majesty that came from the confidence of standing at the peak of all living beings.
“As a woman, how could I dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with another man?” Lingshuang thought in her heart. She was confident that the Tianwu Empire would be more prosperous under her management, and she was confident that even if another million years passed, she would still be part of the history. A pale line of thick ink.
“When Kyle grows up, I’ll give him the heavy responsibility. I’m sure he’ll be very grateful to me.” Lingshuang smiled, but she did not realize that, although she was thinking in her heart, ever since she had taken over the authority of the empire, she did not realize that her desire for power had become more and more uncontrollable. When Kyle grew up, would she still be able to hand over the power so easily?
Ling Shuang. Prad had no idea that in the shadows of the corner of the royal study stood a strange figure. A pair of ice-cold eyes was looking at her under the morning glow, and a thick killing intent flashed in his eyes.
“Grand Princess, there’s a woman from the Wind Cloud Sect, who claims to be Yao Ling’er, and wants to see you. She has his keepsake in her hands.” A royal guard ran over to report.
“Mm, bring her in.” Ling Shuang. Plard’s eyes flashed as he spoke indifferently.
Not long after, the incomparably seductive Yao Ling’er walked in with her water snake-like waist, bowing respectfully, “Yao Ling’er pays her respects to the Grand Princess.”
“There’s no need for elder sister Ling’Er to be so polite, I don’t even dare to be his younger sister.” Ling Shuang. With a smile, Prard stepped forward and helped her to her feet. The two entered the royal study arm in arm, just like a pair of dear friends they had known for many years. However, only the two of them knew the truth.
“How is it?” Ling Shuang. Prad asked, sitting on the throne.
“Reporting to the Grand Princess, I have already used my bewitching technique to control two of the ten protectors of the Storm Sect.” Yao Ling’er replied.
“Only Protector? Where are the five elders? And what about my Junior Sister Xiao Xiao, who was specially groomed by the Storm Sect? ” Ling Shuang. Plard frowned and asked, the natural aura of majesty instantly destroying the relationship between the two of them that they maintained on the surface.
“Reporting to Your Highness, the elders of the Wind Cloud Sect are not easily seen by disciples of my level. As for senior sister Xiao, she usually stays in Hundred Flowers Valley, which is not a place I can enter, so …” Yao Ling’er said with a terrified expression.
Ling Shuang. “Big Sister Ling’er, you should know that I don’t have much time left, in another five years it will be Kyle’s coming of age ceremony. I must hand over a smooth and smooth empire to him, or else I will shame my royal father’s spirit in the heavens.
The Wind Cloud Sect was already tens of thousands of years old, and although it was also established by the Celestial Sect, its original purpose was to monitor the empire. But building up knowledge is all right. It only plays a supervisory role, and its power lies with our royal family.
However, due to the lack of attention from the seniors, and because we are allowing them to have freedom, the current Wind Cloud Sect’s royal authority is just a sham. Not only that, we need the imperial power to serve them everywhere, which is something the previous generations of Sky Martial Empire’s Emperors cannot tolerate. Let the imperial power take over the Wind Cloud Sect, and let the Wind Cloud Sect serve the Emperor. This is also father’s last wish, I must fulfill it for him.
Yao Ling’er turned around and looked at the imperial palace shrouded in golden sunlight, her charming face revealing a mocking smile. She muttered to herself, “You really think you’re the emperor, what do you think you’re doing for your little brother, for your father? Haha, an excuse is indeed quite impressive.” If it’s that easy to control the entire Wind Cloud Sect, why would I, Yao Ling’er, need to use you? ”
“…”
In his previous life, when Xuanyuan Zilong was reading novels, he had also especially liked the plot of the auction, and he was also really looking forward to the opportunity to go and auction it. But with his previous life’s family’s capabilities, this kind of thought was naturally impossible to come true.
In this lifetime, Xuanyuan Zi Long went to the auction and found it quite fun, but many of them were high level auctions held by the Divine Dragon Palace, so Xuanyuan Zi Long didn’t display anything special. He also wanted to see the difference between the auction here and the auction for cultivators, so he decided to first understand the situation, and then he would decide whether or not he would sell something ‘shocking’.
The Qu Family Auction House was the headquarters of the capital. It occupied an independent luxurious seven-story building in the bustling area. The glittering golden signboard dazzled people’s eyes under the sunlight.
“Esteemed customer, the auction house is on the third floor and the first and second floors are in the trading hall.” Upon entering, a very beautiful young girl welcomed him with a warm smile. Her bright, white teeth and eye-catching figure made everyone’s eyes light up, and their body and mind feel much more comfortable.
He really knew how to do business! Xuanyuan Zilong secretly praised him in his heart, but he still laughed as he said, “I’m looking for your shopkeeper. I heard that there will be an auction very soon, I want to understand the situation. If possible, I can buy some things along the way.”
“Looking for the shopkeeper, please wait for a moment. I’ll go ask him if he’s here first.” As the girl spoke, she turned around and walked away.
“Hur hur, you sure have some ability to speak.” In truth, he just wanted to ask if he was here or not. Not long later, the girl walked over and said: “The shopkeeper is on the seventh floor, he invited you up.”
