Mr. Zhao had no idea that not only was he the first among these thirty-eight people, but he was also the first in the current era, and perhaps even the first in history.
If he knew, he would probably complain about King Heavenly Destiny, "I’m already so fast, what are you urging for! It’s as if I’m the very last."
...
The ti had co to the 15th of January in the 31st year of the Jingxin Calendar.
Inside the Star Palace.
"Boom~"
The Secret Pattern Stars were rotating, and Zhao Xing stood on the Star Platform, silently watching.
By now, he no longer scread out in pain.
The cultivation of the Derivation God Decision had also tempered his ntal will.
The pain was now much more intense than during the first Life Star, but he could maintain a composed expression.
Even King Heavenly Destiny couldn’t tell whether Zhao Xing had succeeded or not.
After waiting for a long ti, seeing that Zhao Xing did not take the Primordial Soul Liquid and did not cry out,
King Heavenly Destiny couldn’t help but show himself, "Have you, have you broken through? You’ve been standing there for quite a while."
If you’ve broken through, just say sothing, I still have to go write the record!
"Returning to King Heavenly Destiny, I have already broken through," Zhao Xing nodded.
At this mont, his Life Soul, following the waist and abdon, shoulders, had one more star appear on his back.
The star had secret patterns erging, this was proof of the Way of the Soul.
"The fourth Life Star?" King Heavenly Destiny showed a delighted expression, "Good, good, good."
"Prince, in terms of speed, what rank would my breakthrough to the fourth star be classified as?" Zhao Xing asked.
"Of course, it’s..." In his excitent, King Heavenly Destiny almost spilled the truth, but rembering that Zhao Xing had rested for ten days, he swallowed his words back, "Ahem, well, I can only say, there’s still a lot of room for improvent."
Zhao Xing couldn’t grasp his ambiguous answer and could only say, "Prince, may I take a few days off?"
"What are you intending to do?" King Heavenly Destiny asked guardedly.
Why is this boy thinking of resting again? He wasn’t like this back in Ten Suns Cave Heaven!
"The Spring Festival is coming soon, and I should return ho for the holidays," Zhao Xing said. "The last breakthrough, I left one clone at the branch of the Xuantian Academy, one en route to the Kunyuan Academy, and the rest were dissipated due to the vibration of the Life Soul during the breakthrough."
"I could use a clone to return ho, but my sister often calls a foolish brother; I wish to go back personally and see her."
King Heavenly Destiny couldn’t refuse such a reason and nodded, "Alright, I will grant you half a month’s leave."
It wasn’t sothing that could be broken through from the fourth to the fifth star in a mont’s ti.
"Thank you, King Heavenly Destiny."
"Don’t be hasty," said King Heavenly Destiny, "wait to return until it’s closer to the holiday. It’s still early; there’s half a month left."
"Yes."
...
Within a secluded private residence in Chongming Prefecture,
Yin Qi Quan, looking at the stack of docunts in front of him, couldn’t help but turn to his subordinate, "What have you done? I asked you to bring all the official records of the Earth God Temple, so why are these all signed by the Right Director Chen Shijie, with only the official seal of the Left Chief?"
The subordinate was also aggrieved, "Sir, I can’t be blad for this. When Zhao Xing went to the Earth God Temple, he was completely hands-off and slept in the office all day, attending to nothing."
"All matters of the Earth God Temple were handled by Chen Shijie."
Since Zhao Xing did nothing but laze around, what could be done?
"What? How can this scoundrel be so neglectful in his duties!" Yin Qi Quan slamd the table in anger.
He wanted to acquire sothing related to Zhao Xing, to stealthily send it over the sea as a dium.
By collecting it, when the ti was ripe, it could be put to use.
Yet, Zhao Xing had been at the Earth God Temple for so long and had done nothing. All matters, big and small, were managed by Chen Shijie.
He was like a statue in a temple, only watching, not speaking, motionless.
"Is there not a single docunt here with Zhao Xing’s signature?" Yin Qi Quan pinched the stack of docunts, "Eh? Is there or not?"
The subordinate replied, "Sir, there are three."
"Hmm?" Yin Qi Quan was overjoyed, "Where are they?"
The subordinate imdiately stepped forward and, in the docunts that Yin Qi Quan had scattered, found three.
"Alright, you may leave," Yin Qi Quan dismissed the subordinate.
He then sank into the ground and entered an underground Earth Palace.
In the Earth Palace, a giant brazier burned. Yin Qi Quan threw all three docunts into it.
This brazier was passed down from the ancient Ancient Sect, the True Fire Sect.
It was an imitation of the Li Fire Altar and fire pond constructed by the Li Fire Divine Sect. However, the copy wasn’t as effective; it could only transmit objects, not people, and the volu couldn’t be too large.
"Pfft~"
These three docunts were transmitted to the three underwater mountains far away.
The Blood Spirit Venerable walked down from the altar, holding the three docunts, and then closed his eyes to sense them.
A mont later, the image of a disheveled beard, slightly squarish face, faint eyebrows, and small nose and eyes with pale skin appeared in the Blood Spirit Venerable’s mind.
"Yin Qi Quan, this fool," the Blood Spirit Venerable snorted coldly.
These weren’t Zhao Xing’s signatures, they were clearly signed on his behalf by Chen Shijie!
The Blood Spirit Venerable casually discarded the docunts.
To not be able to acquire an item from a fifth-rank official was one thing, but to make such a mistake?
Yin Qi Quan was truly useless!
He had to pay a significant price to perform the Curse Killing Skill, even needing to consu a person’s life.
How could he use it to kill Chen Shijie, who didn’t even appear on the list?
The Blood Spirit Venerable sent a reply to Yin Qi Quan.
After a while, Yin Qi Quan in the underground chamber saw the reply: You fool, that was signed on his behalf by Chen Shijie!
"What?" Upon seeing the reply, Yin Qi Quan beca furious, "Damn Zhao Xing! How can you be so neglectful in your duties! Ah, it’s infuriating!"
