Chapter 417

"Black Pupil? God of Death? Death Crossing? Six Great Demon Crossings? Demon Lord Bai Suzhen?"

Tie Muzhen was a generation's mighty lord; with just a slight reminder from Yelu Chucai, he immediately grasped the key point concerning Black Pupil.

"You mean this Demon Lord Bai Suzhen, and the Six Great Demon Crossings under her, are excellent targets for us to win over?"

"The Khan is wise!"

Yelu Chucai praised him repeatedly,

"Although this minister below does not know what background this Demon Lord Bai Suzhen has, Black Pupil, one of her subordinates, was able to make the list."

"And ranked alongside the Qinglong Society's 'Four Seasons' Dharma Protectors."

"This shows that the strength of the other crossings is absolutely above this!"

"As long as we can help Black Pupil and win her over, we can then hope to win over the other crossings."

"Win over the six crossings, and I believe Demon Lord Bai Suzhen will certainly be within reach as well."

"With Demon Lord Bai Suzhen and the Six Great Demon Crossings, even if there is still some gap with the Qinglong Society,"

"compared to Great Qin, I'm afraid our ranking could rise by one level!"

"Then how do we make contact with Black Pupil?"

Tie Muzhen's eyes lit up; not being able to match the Qinglong Society was no big deal.

After all, the Qinglong Society was too monstrous, and there was also that forbidden number-one expert Ximen Wudi.

But if they could surpass the Great Qin Imperial Court, to say nothing of bringing glory to their ancestors,

just thinking of Ying Zheng's frustrated look made Tie Muzhen feel very pleased.

253-In this world, there can only be one god!

"Everything still lies within this Heavenly Dao Golden List!"

Yelu Chucai carefully pointed out,

"Black Pupil was originally a descendant of the Heijiaman Sect, a prominent family of Yunzhou."

"But the so-called Seven Demon-Slaying Heroes, under the pretext of eradicating the remnants of the Chanchumo Sect, slaughtered the entire Heijiaman Sect."

"Even Black Pupil nearly perished."

"Therefore, as long as the Khan kills the Seven Demon-Slaying Heroes, or captures them, Black Pupil will surely be deeply grateful."

"By that time, recruiting her will not be difficult."

Tie Muzhen nodded repeatedly and loudly gave the order,

"Attendants, pass down my order at once: send people to Yunzhou immediately to investigate matters related to the Seven Demon-Slaying Heroes."

"Also summon the named offerings and the Nation-Protecting Offerings to rush to Yunzhou."

"If they can capture the Purple-Robed Leader, the Great Yuan can satisfy any one condition he asks."

In Black Pupil's background introduction, apart from the Purple-Robed Leader, the other members of the Seven Demon-Slaying Heroes had all already been killed by Demon Lord Bai Suzhen.

Therefore, to curry favor with Black Pupil, they could only hunt down the Purple-Robed Leader.

Hearing this, Yelu Chucai immediately began flattering,

"The Khan is wise. I wish the Khan a triumphant victory, and that Demon Lord Bai Suzhen and the Six Great Demon Crossings all throw themselves under the Khan's banner."

"Haha! If this succeeds, you shall be the top meritorious minister!"

Tie Muzhen was also generous with his rewards.

Yelu Chucai hurriedly bowed and thanked him for the generous reward.

Only they did not know that this Purple-Robed Leader was none other than

the father of Xiong Ba, the leader of the Tianxiahui Gang, the hegemon of the Wu Lin of Yunzhou.

To curry favor with Black Pupil meant going to war with Xiong Ba!

No matter how you looked at it, it was a dead end!

Tianxiahui, the number-one tower under heaven.

"Damnable…"

Seeing Black Pupil's introduction, the Purple-Robed Leader's veins bulged, yet a look of extreme terror also flashed across his face.

The shadow left by Demon Lord Bai Suzhen would probably not fade even after another hundred years.

"The one who took your arm—was that Demon Lord Bai Suzhen?"

Xiong Ba could not help but snort with laughter; although his old man's cultivation was higher than his own, his courage compared to his was truly far too lacking.

So what if she was Demon Lord Bai Suzhen?

No matter how powerful, hadn't she been living in seclusion all along!

"Don't you underestimate her!"

The Purple-Robed Leader's face was ferocious as he glared at Xiong Ba,

"Since Black Pupil didn't die, then Demon Lord Bai Suzhen and the others should still be alive as well."

"They should be somewhere in Yunzhou."

"I have a vendetta with Black Pupil over the destruction of my family. If Black Pupil finds out I'm at Tianxiahui, you know the consequences…"

Xiong Ba had already thought of this and replied carelessly,

"So what even if she knows? Just an early-stage Mythical Realm cultivator!"

"I've inherited the family's Returning Origin Blood Hand; now my strength has not only recovered but grown even further."

"If she dares come to Tianxiahui, she can just wait to die completely."

"What about Demon Lord Bai Suzhen then?"

The Purple-Robed Leader sneered,

"I'll tell you the truth—although it's been a long time since I've seen her,"

"But I can clearly feel that facing her now is no different from facing her back then…"

"You're not lying to me?"

Xiong Ba was truly a little startled this time.

Right now, Purple-Cloth Boss's strength was actually higher than his own.

Yet even so, he still had no power to fight back?

How could that be possible?

"Do you still remember that mysterious person who saved us beneath Dugu Qiubai's 'Sword Jade'?"

"Although this person is unfathomably mysterious, able to save us from beneath the 'Sword Jade,'"

"I can clearly sense that he is no match for the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen."

"I…"

Xiong Ba could not help wanting to curse someone out.

Really, what kind of person had his old man provoked?

How much money could a He family have, how many pretty women?

Was it worth offending an almost invincible Demon Lord Bai Suzhen over this?

"Then what should we do?"

Xiong Ba was out of options and could only ask Purple-Cloth Boss for a plan.

"Two ways!"

Purple-Cloth Boss gave a slight sigh; he did not want to die either, nor did he want his son to die.

"The first: throw in with Qinglong Society, be a thug for Ximen Wudi!"

"That 'Sword Jade' last time let me understand that Ximen Wudi can absolutely be a match for Demon Lord Bai Suzhen."

"Impossible…"

Xiong Ba refused outright.

Although the current situation under heaven had grown increasingly bewildering, with countless experts making dazzling appearances,

wanting to unify the Nine Provinces again was already no ordinary difficulty.

Yet Xiong Ba's ambition was enormous, nearly on par with the Three Great Emperors.

Asking him to give up his ambition and submit to Qinglong Society — that would be no different from killing him with a single slash!

"I knew you couldn't give it up!"

Purple-Cloth Boss laughed, not minding it,

"Then the second path: find that mysterious person who saved you and me before."
