Chapter 1957 Raw 2055 : Acting Smar

After Xiao Chen obtained the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor’s inheritance, many memories appeared in his mind: the various mysteries of the Azure Dragon Race, the many secrets of the Dragon Race, and the wonders of the Dragon Race Martial Techniques.

This mass of information formed a vast sea before Xiao Chen.

After calming down, he compressed and sealed this precious information for retrieval when he wanted to use it.

Otherwise, he would not be able to digest the information immediately. His Soul Pool would end up exploding.

Xiao Chen selectively absorbed all the secrets of the Azure Dragon bloodline and some special experiences of the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor.

Just these alone took him two days.

Two days later, he opened his eyes, having nearly forgotten about his breakthrough to the Holy Light Stage.

Without much thought, Xiao Chen checked his Soul Pool. The scene of a sky full of stars above his Soul Pool already vanished.

Now, there were only two clumps of profound light hovering high in the sky.

One was like the moon, and the other was like the sun. However, they were not very clear right now.

Xiao Chen came to know from the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor’s memories that regular people would have only one clump of profound light when they broke through to the Holy Light Stage.

A scene of two clumps of profound light, like what Xiao Chen had, was known as Sun and Moon Shining Together.

Aside from this, there were many other indicators of strength for this stage, like Bright Moon in the Clear Sky. That was a scene of a clear sky but with a bright moon hanging above.

There was also Nine Stars Aligned, which was a scene of nine stars of different brightness, forming a line and looking like a sword piercing through the sky.

The strongest one would be Nine Suns Shining Proudly. There would be nine clumps of profound light, looking like suns hovering in the sky, radiating a might that could destroy the world.

The Holy Venerate Wills of those people with such scenes would be exceptionally strong. When they cultivated to a certain height, these mysterious phenomena could materialize and affect the real world, resulting in extremely strong offensive power.

“The Great Thousand Realms is truly filled with wonders,” Xiao Chen muttered to himself. With the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor’s memories, he discovered that he was truly a frog in a well, ignorant of the greater world.

This world was larger than he had thought.

The Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor had passed away for so many years already. Xiao Chen did not know what changes there had been since then.

However, regarding such mysterious phenomena, the Sun and Moon Shining Together was considered among the peak, comparable to the legendary Nine Suns Shining Proudly.

With a thought, Xiao Chen activated his Holy Venerate Will, and two vague clumps of light immediately appeared in the air.

A strong will of soul spread out.

Xiao Chen smiled in satisfaction. He felt that it was much stronger than his previous Star Venerate Will.

In the past, people always tried to bully Xiao Chen, a Star Venerate then, with their Holy Venerate Wills. In the future, he no longer had to fear that.

In the Holy Light Stage, it was time for him to formally cultivate Soul Energy.

There were many secret manuals for cultivating Soul Energy in the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor’s memories. Xiao Chen did not know which to choose.

So, he decided to familiarize himself with the Holy Light Stage first and make his choice after gaining a full understanding.

“It is time to properly cultivate the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art.”

The Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor was right. The true Divine Dragon War Body would only truly start to show itself when all six layers of the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art were completed.

Whether Xiao Chen acknowledged it or not, he had indeed underestimated this Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art.

Let’s push through to the fifth layer in one go, then.

Since Xiao Chen did not lack resources now, and he had also advanced to the Holy Light Stage, he could no longer continue to delay this.

He stood up and headed to the Nine Cauldron Pavilion.

Li Xiuhai personally received Xiao Chen. When he saw Xiao Chen, he showed a startled expression before smiling. “Congratulations, Sir Xiao, on advancing to the Holy Light Stage. Although you used the Seven Apertures Cloud Breaking Pill, it is still not easy to break through. Unexpectedly, Sir Xiao broke through in just two days. That is truly admirable.”

What Li Xiuhai said was true. Most people would take at least half a month. Even so, the odds of success would merely be fifty percent.

Xiao Chen’s rapid advancement to Holy Venerate gave Li Xiuhai a great shock.

Xiao Chen truly seemed increasingly unfathomable.

Xiao Chen took out a list and handed it to Li Xiuhai. “If the Nine Cauldron Pavilion has stock of any of these items on the list, I want them all. If you do not have stock, help me find substitutes.”

“Sovereign-Personage-level ferocious beast’s beast bones, Dao Bone Pill, ten-thousand-year-old Heavenly Blood Grass… These are… Sir Xiao wants to temper your body and cultivate your Vital Qi?”

Li Xiuhai looked at Xiao Chen in doubt, finding the list strange. Could it be that Xiao Chen is also a Vital Qi cultivator?

If so, Xiao Chen’s strength could not be evaluated by the standards of an Initial Perfection Holy Venerate.

Xiao Chen smiled calmly. “There is no problem with telling you. I possess fifty Cauldron Force of strength. If you succeed in getting me these resources, I can easily attain sixty Cauldron Force.”

Fifty Cauldron Force!

Li Xiuhai’s mind turned chaotic as he sized up Xiao Chen again, feeling some fear this time.

Even with my Peak Holy Venerate cultivation, I would find it hard to keep Xiao Chen here. No wonder he showed no fear of me from the very start.

It turned out that Xiao Chen never took Li Xiuhai seriously at all.

Short of a Sovereign Personage, no one would be able to stop this person before Li Xiuhai.

A Holy Venerate with an additional fifty Cauldron Force of strength. It would be very difficult to find a youth in the entire northern region that had reached such heights in both aspects.

Li Xiuhai felt stunned for a moment before smiling. “Sir Xiao, you hide your strengths well. Someone, come. Give the highest priority to helping Sir Xiao obtain these resources. If the store does not have them, go to other shops to buy them. Do not delay.”

Li Xiuhai called a person over and gave instructions regarding what Xiao Chen wanted.

While waiting, Li Xiuhai tried to sound out Xiao Chen again. “Sir Xiao, do you know that in the past two days, four Rank 6 sects already had several probing clashes with the Heavenly Lodging Palace in Desolate God Valley?

“There were also several loose cultivators who tried to barge in. However, the Sovereign Personage experts of the Heavenly Lodging Palace directly killed them.”

Xiao Chen asked out of curiosity, “Were there fights between Sovereign Personages?”

Li Xiuhai shook his head and replied, “There were none. Once Sovereign Personages start fighting, the resulting commotion will be too big. However, with the harassment of the various factions, the Heavenly Lodging Palace’s movements clearly slowed. After all, four Rank 6 sects are working together, while the Heavenly Lodging Palace there is only a branch. The Heavenly Lodging Palace will not dare to underestimate the other side.”

Xiao Chen frowned. “That means that there is still no word on what exactly the Heavenly Lodging Palace discovered.”

“Yes, there is none. Those people that barged in all died miserable deaths. The Heavenly Lodging Palace showed no mercy. They managed to intimidate the first group of people into stopping. However, that will not last for long. When the news spreads after a few more days, even the Heavenly Lodging Palace’s people won’t be able to sit still.”

Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Manager Li, you pay a lot of attention to this matter. Do you really have no intention of participating?”

“The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak,” Li Xiuhai said with an ungenuine smile as he repeated the answer from the previous time.

One hour later, Li Xiuhai handed over all the resources that Xiao Chen wanted.

After receiving the payment of Primeval Heavenly Pills with a thirty percent discount, Li Xiuhai personally sent Xiao Chen to the doors. Right before Xiao Chen walked away, he suddenly called out to Xiao Chen, “I received a piece of information that I’m not sure whether to tell you about or not.”

“Speak.”

Li Xiuhai appeared to be put in a spot as he said, “Something happened to Hua Qingyun, the grandson of a high-ranking Elder of the Heavenly Lodging Palace’s headquarters. This person is quite famous in our Ancient Desolate Town; of course, it is infamy. I heard that there had been no news of him for several days already. He disappeared, together with his 2-Star Heaven Suspending War Chariot.

“I’ve heard that he disappeared when he was rushing over to meet up with the Heavenly Lodging Palace’s people. This is a major matter. If anything really happened to him, then Hua Qingyun’s grandfather, a Divine Vein Realm Sovereign Emperor, would get angry. By then, everyone in the Heavenly Lodging Palace branch will suffer a miserable fate.”

Xiao Chen looked at Li Xiuhai. The two’s gazes met. Li Xiuhai continued showing a smile, not withdrawing it at all.

An out-and-out smiling tiger. Xiao Chen snorted coldly to himself. Then, he said calmly, “Aside from the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor, Manager Li knows that there are five other Dragon Kings in the Divine Dragon Empire, right?”

[TL Note: A smiling tiger means a person who is outwardly kind and nice but inwardly cruel and evil. Basically, a hypocrite.]

“I do. There are the White Dragon King, the Silver Dragon King, the Red Dragon King, the Blue Dragon King, and the Green Dragon King. All of them are overlords of the Great Thousand Realms. Why is Sir Xiao suddenly mentioning this? What do you mean by it?”

Xiao Chen completely confused Li Xiuhai, making him somewhat nervous.

After glancing at the Nine Cauldron Pavilion behind Li Xiuhai, Xiao Chen asked, “Which is scarier: the anger of a Dragon King or a Sovereign Emperor?”

“Naturally, a Dragon King.”

Xiao Chen showed a faint smile as he patted Li Xiuhai’s shoulder. “You are just a minor character, a nobody in the Nine Cauldron Pavilion. There are some things that you cannot investigate, so you should not do so. You hear me?”

Although Xiao Chen’s voice was serene, Li Xiuhai strangely felt cold sweat on his forehead. He smiled and said, “Sir Xiao is right. I know what to do now. I wonder who spread this fake information; they are really growing increasingly overboard.”

Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Did I say something? Businessmen like to grab opportunities and take risks. This is a good thing. However, sometimes, it’s better not to try to act smart. Properly learn from Master Bai’s character. In the future, when I come to this Nine Cauldron Pavilion, don’t appear before me. Get Master Bai to receive me.”

Damn it! Li Xiuhai cursed in his heart. He knew that he had been acting smart, but he ended up completely offending Xiao Chen.

Li Xiuhai immediately became very anxious. “Sir Xiao, please listen to me…”

However, Xiao Chen had already turned around, ignoring Li Xiuhai. As Li Xiuhai watched Xiao Chen leave, he felt incredible regret. What am I to do now?
