Chapter 315

Mingfuzhi Sect

Ming Wang Island · Inside the Central Grand Hall

At this moment, a black-haired Ming Wang, Ma Erduojier, sat calmly upon the Wang Zuo, like a refined, composed, and reserved gentleman, leafing through the book in his hands.

And below the Wang Zuo, clad in armor, a green-haired Kuang Hua knelt on one knee, reporting to the Ming Wang seated upon the Wang Zuo.

"Reporting to the Ming Wang, the Jackal is dead; his soul has now returned to the Hell Core."

"What happened?"

Hearing this, the Ming Wang, holding the book in his hands, spoke calmly without lifting his head.

"According to the mission's requirements, the Jackal was responsible for infiltrating the Fapingyi Society, and at the moment the war broke out, seizing the chance to search for Feis."

"Midway, the Jackal encountered the otherworlder Hu Zi Ma Xieer · D · Dichi; unable to prevail, ~he chose suicide."

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, the gaze that had remained fixed on the book finally lifted; his pitch-black eyes looked toward Kuang Hua as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Hu Zi Dichi?"

Kuang Hua nodded and said: "Yes!"

"Now this is somewhat interesting. As one of the instigators of the war, that fellow actually showed up there — this otherworlder truly has a problem."

Closing the book, the corner of Ma Erduojier's mouth suddenly lifted slightly; not the slightest anger at the Jackal's death showed in his eyes.

After all, being able to face the Six Demon General 'Wu,' it was only natural for the Jackal to lose.

On the contrary, Ma Erduojier was far more curious about Hu Zi himself and his actions.

"Provoking war between the two great powers of two worlds — once discovered, the consequences would be far too heavy for an ordinary person to bear."

"Seizing the chance to infiltrate the Fapingyi Society — there must be something important there that drew him in."

Although it had not taken part in this war, the Mingfuzhi Sect had been watching all along.

Especially as the source of the calamity, Hu Zi in particular drew close attention.

As one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Hu Zi was unquestionably a main force of the war; yet at the moment the great battle erupted, he actually infiltrated the Fapingyi Society's interior — his purpose was self-evident.

"Ming Wang, my lord, not only that — before the Jackal died, he also heard a piece of news: it seems Hu Zi himself knows about the Hell Core?"

"What did you say!"

The moment these words left his mouth, Kuang Hua could feel the aura around the Ming Wang shift in an instant,

and although she had long been prepared within, the immense pressure made her bow her head at once, not daring to meet his gaze in the slightest.

No wonder the Ming Wang reacted this way — one must know that as one of the two great cores of the Mingfuzhi Sect, the importance of the Hell Core was such that even if every demon of the Jiugui Sect were stacked together, they would not amount to a hundredth of it.

Once the outside world learned of the Hell Core's existence, it would surely bring adverse effects upon the Mingfuzhi Sect.

It was entirely normal for Ma Erduojier to react this way.

Or rather, if there were no reaction — no reaction — that would be the strange thing.

"Speak. Who leaked it."

With the very foundation of the Mingfuzhi Sect at stake, at this moment Ma Erduojier too found it hard to maintain his initial composure.

Although he knew Hu Zi, this otherworlder, had an unknown background, he had not expected that the man even knew the core of the Mingfuzhi Sect.

Enduring the pressure by force, Kuang Hua spoke with her whole body trembling.

"Ming Wang, my lord, it was not leaked… it was… that otherworlder…… who knew of the Hell Core's existence, and it seems through some special power, he spied upon the Jackal's soul and thereby learned of it."

"This power is called 'The Omniscient and Omnipotent Great Will.'"

Next, Kuang Hua relayed everything the Jackal had said after being revived to Ma Erduojier, without missing a single word.

"'The Omniscient and Omnipotent Great Will'?"

Ma Erduojier said in a deep voice.

"Mm."

Kuang Hua nodded, then continued.

"Judging from the situation Hu Zi described, it seems the history of a thousand years ago has vanished in every world; 'The Omniscient and Omnipotent Great Will' seems to be connected to that thousand-year history."

"Even Bai Huzi, who pursued Hu Zi so relentlessly as to unleash war, did not deny this point."

"Through this power, the other party possesses the ability to probe the Jackal's soul."

"And his own infiltration of the Fapingyi Society seems to have been precisely for the sake of seeking this 'Great Will.'"

"Now, for some unknown reason, a piece of news has spread through the outside world: the 'Great Will' in Hu Zi's hands is only a fragment; once all the fragments are gathered, one can obtain the supreme power."
