Chapter 40

He possesses an Innate Sacred Body Dao Fetus, his cultivation speed is nothing short of a peerless monster.

Because he is a Blue Star, and having read countless web novels, he clearly knows that the protagonist's halo of the Child of Destiny is full of bugs, making people stupid.

But he also possesses a Myriad Worlds Mall Card; with enough points, he lacks nothing—be it techniques, resources, pills, spiritual treasures, divine beasts, or spirit pets.

Judging by the points he currently has, counting himself, he has a total of four Martial Lord Realm experts at his disposal.

Experts of this level are enough to found a sect and become a regional powerhouse.

But facing Ye Xuan, he is a man who has read the script; Ye Xuan is not only formidable himself, but also backed by powerful forces, and even his missing parents have significant backgrounds.

He must crush them, giving no chance to breathe, and strike with thunderous speed to kill them all.

He plans to spend all his points to exchange for Martial Lords, because in the Northern Abyss Continent, cultivation level decides the outcome of a battle.

"Mother." Su Chen raised his head.

His eyes held a calm, confident ease that was reassuring; it seemed any major matter placed before him could be handled effortlessly: "Actually, we don't need to win by numbers; having a Martial Lord or a Martial Saint–level figure is enough, right?"

"You mean…" Madam Su snapped her head up, delight flashing across her face.

"If we have a Martial Sovereign realm expert, or a Martial Saint powerhouse, even without allying with that Ye family's Ye Xiao, we could turn the tide; even if Ye Xuan has countless Martial Sect behind him, as long as a Martial Sovereign acts, numbers are useless."

"Enough."

"But even if you are a Martial Sovereign, plus your father who is also a Martial Sovereign, and counting me, we only have three Martial Sovereigns; the Star Pavilion behind Ye Xuan, I hear, has a Martial Saint expert old ancestor seated in command; if we push too hard and provoke that old ancestor…"

"Mother, the Star Pavilion has Martial Saint experts, and we do too, but for now, to avoid alerting the enemy and revealing our strength prematurely, we'll temporarily swallow our pride and ally with Ye Xiao; he wants to use our Profound Heaven Sect, and why wouldn't we want to use him?"

"After saying that, Madam Su seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, her lovely face showing a hint of relief and composure."

"And Su Chen used his divine sense to scan the secret letter again."

"This letter was sent by Sect Master Su after infiltrating the Ye family, having scouted for a long time before finally deciding to pass it to Su Chen."

"The letter also bore two names."

"Yue Yao."

"Ye Ling'er."

"Chu Shuang'er."

"The former is a confidante Ye Xuan met while training in Zhongzhou, having met her in the Myriad Heavens Secret Realm; she is the daughter of the Pill Emperor Hall's hall master in Zhongzhou, and despite her young age she is already a sixth-rank pill master, her cultivation at the seventh layer of the Martial Sect realm."

"The latter, Ye Ling'er, is said to be the adopted daughter of the former head of the Ye family—Ye Xuan's father, Ye Feng—who took her in; she recently disappeared suddenly, and later word came that she was taken on as a direct disciple by the palace master of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace who happened to pass by."

"The Holy Maiden of the Cold Moon Sect, who moreover bears a grudge against the Ye family; on the arena years ago, Chu Shuang'er once injured Ye Xuan's sister, was reprimanded by Ye Xuan, and she cultivates the Blissful Union Technique of the Blissful Union Sect, born with a seductive bone, but her final fate was to be cruelly plucked by Ye Xuan, then gang‑raped to death by several burly men."

"Both of these women have deep ties to Ye Xuan, and Sect Master Su worries that if Ye Xuan goes to war with the Profound Heaven Sect, the forces behind them might intervene."

"Yo, this is provoking the Child of Fate; even the Maiden of Fate has shown up?"

"Yue Yao, he doesn't know, but she's merely the protagonist's lovely confidante; when a fight breaks out, she'll surely come to back him up."

"As for Ye Ling'er, is she the heroine who almost had her primal yin stolen by the previous incarnation?"

"Looks like my cheap old man managed to become the head of a sect, still has some tricks……" Su Chen muttered under his breath, then handed the letter to Madam Su and said, "The Pill Emperor Hall and the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace—one is a giant of Zhongzhou, the other an immortal orthodoxy of the Three Thousand Dao States; Dad's worries are not without reason."

"In the letter he said, Ye Xuan, while adventuring in Zhongzhou, met Yue Yao, daughter of the Pill Emperor Hall's hall master; the two are likely lovely confidantes, and Ye Ling'er, Ye Xuan's adopted sister, who mysteriously disappeared not long ago, later word came that she was likely taken as a direct disciple by the palace master of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace, an immortal orthodoxy of the Three Thousand Dao States; Dad worries that if we drive Ye Xuan into desperation, these people will come to his aid."

"Never mind."

"Since Su Chen transmigrated into the book, he's become a major villain, and he's never backed down!"

"But coming back to the point, does bowing before the protagonist actually help?"

"If it's a saintly protagonist, yielding is fine; if it's a decisive, slaughter‑happy type, you just offer sacrifices to heaven."

"His father's concerns are still quite reasonable; he's just focused on the present, a bit overconfident."

"It seems Martial Saint alone isn't enough; although I'm not sure if those two giants will show up, it's better to be prepared."

"Now, while Ye Xuan hasn't descended yet, we can first pay a visit to the Cold Moon Sect; as for why the Cold Moon Sect stands opposed to the Profound Heaven Sect…"

"It's not because Sect Master Su once crippled the Cold Moon Sect's leader with a single palm, causing the two sects to become enemies."

"I heard that Li Han, in his ripe old age, broke through to the Martial Sect realm and even gained a precious son; the higher a cultivator's realm, the lower the chance of pregnancy."

"And when Li Hanbing's son was born, an omen accompanied it; as a result, in his cultivation he overreached, damaging his meridians, and now Li Hanbing is searching everywhere for a pill‑dao master."

"Our wavering dealings with the Ye family are because Ye Xuan promised to give them a Vessel‑Refining Pill afterward to reforge their inner meridians."

"Su Chen rode his Blazing Spirit Steed, seated in the carriage, furrowed his brow slightly, and asked a wandering cultivator not far off: "Has the Cold Moon Sect found a pill‑dao master capable of refining Vessel‑Refining Pills?""

"The Vessel‑Refining Pill is a seventh‑grade pill; the reason Ye Xuan agreed isn't just because he met a lovely confidante from the Pill Emperor Hall, but because the hall master of the Pill Emperor Hall himself is a seventh‑grade pill master."

Scattered cultivators had never seen a divine steed suffused with ghostly flames, but relying on years of keen eyesight, they still could tell Su Chen was extraordinary, and respectfully said: "That Vein Forging Pill is a seventh-grade elixir; just the formula is extraordinarily precious, and as for a seventh-grade pill grandmaster, there isn't a single one in the entire Eastern Wasteland— not even the Eastern Wasteland's top Pill Dao Grandmaster, who is only fifth-grade."

It is said that Li Mengsha, the young master, has his meridians severely damaged, affecting his cultivation; even his temperament has become twisted, and for three whole years his cultivation has made no progress at all— who could bear that?

Precisely for this reason, only after Ye Xuan, the young master, promised to give the Vein Forging Pill as reward did Li Hanbing, the Sect Leader Li, agree to join forces with the Ye family.

Su Chen, hearing this, slightly narrowed his eyes.

He entered his sea of consciousness space.

He opened the Myriad Worlds Market and found the pill market.

He selected a Marrow Cleansing and Pulse Severing type pill, and after searching, finally found the seventh-grade Vein Forging Pill in the last row.

He, who knew the plot well, knew that after their Heavenly Profound Dao Sect was exterminated, Ye Xuan seemed to have forgotten about the Vein Forging Pill, and Chu Shuang'er, because she cultivated the Union Bliss Technique, took the essence of several demonic beasts, and thus Ye Xuan regarded her as an evil cultivator.

Li Mengsha, also due to damaged meridians, had a strong and violent temperament, maiming his household slaves to death; Ye Xuan, who could not tolerate even a speck of sand in his eyes, immediately took the moral high ground and uprooted the entire Cold Moon Sect.

Thus the four great sects of the Eastern Wasteland merged into the Profound Alliance, Ye Xuan became the alliance leader, and unified the Eastern Wasteland region.

Upon thinking this, Su Chen already had a plan in his mind.
