Chapter 318: Myself Is Shan Liuyun!
Chen Ming gestured for him to rise. Bu Liuhen stood up and asked with worship in his voice, “Sire, where should I flee?”
Chen Ming spoke with vehemence, “Scarlet Dragon Star River Office. I shall not speak much. If you can’t even hide in this Star River, you are not fit to be my Blade.”
Bu Liuhen bowed, “Subordinate obeys!”
Chen Ming dismissed the meeting but came to find the praying mat still there. Looks like I can lay a praying mat but can’t take it with me. This space is separated after all. I can’t take it as I please. But matters not as now I need not worry for others to take them.
Bu Shenlian’s surroundings faded, then found Bu Shenlian shaking him, “Dad, are you alright?”
Bu Liuhen’s eyes regained their light. He looked at the sky and said with respect, “Sire Faceless, I will never forget your kindness!”
Bu Shenlian said, “Dad, was that man a true Faceless?”
Bu Liuhen nodded.
Bu Shenlian said, “But dad, sire Faceless didn’t send any Blades. He’s been gone for three hundred years, can he save us?”
Bu Liuhen sighed, “The rule of the Three-headed Dragon Constellation will change. He is an unfathomable and unmeasurable existence that has just descended. Henceforth, none shall chase me nor there’ll be any that can restrain me.”
Bu Liuhen lifted Bu Shenlian on his back, “Daughter, let’s go. Father will take you to safety, where we shall enact sire Faceless’s war.”
Bu Shenlian was filled with uncertainties but saw him take a step and an azure dragon forming beneath it. The soaring azure dragon shall break space, and even void, in treading through it.
She began to understand, her father could step into the void. “Dad, your Eight Dragon-ascending Steps reached completion?”
Bu Liuhen’s eyes contained endless admiration, “It is sire Faceless’ bestowal! He is mysterious beyond measure. I am yet worthy to be his Blade, but I know how to become stronger. The Heavenly Court has ten fortune immortal fruits that can create ten Celestial Immortals.”
The Heavenly Court’s search for him on the last star had proved fruitless.
Three days have passed and Bu Liuhen appeared in the Scarlet Dragon Star River Office where he stole Heavenly Court’s fortune immortal fruits through his uncanny footwork.
Many Celestial Immortals were sent but they all looked helpless as Bu Liuhen took his leave.
The entire Three-headed Dragon Constellation changed. Bu Liuhen had the fortune immortal fruits and gained Celestial Immortals as subordinates. Heavenly Court and Jade Lake began to fear him.
In the Vile Dragon Star River, a new monster was born.
But what got the Vile Dragon Star River’s factions speechless was how quiet Bu Liuhen became.
Of course, this was just a diversion as his Celestial Immortals were active in the Vile Dragon Star River while he hid in the Scarlet Dragon Star River Office.
Bu Liuhen was conscious of his new identity, Faceless’ Blade. He only moved according to Faceless’ orders.
Chen Ming didn’t much care for Bu Liuhen’s ruckus. Even if I do, I can do nothing about it!
This guys’ danger value was over fifty thousand!
Can’t mess with him. Just let him grow by himself.
But his feelings, The five times gap between Celestial Immortal and Earth Immortal isn’t exaggerated.
And the increase in danger value was now much slower than before.
Chen Ming has spent his recent time on finding new and different cultivation methods. This was a Star River, home to all kinds of cultivation methods, and helped him in forming a few more dozen Dao Seeds.
Chen Ming strolled around the avenue when a voice echoed in his mind, “There’s an urgent meeting with Inevitable in six hours.”
Chen Ming put down the scripture and made a beeline for the tavern.
What’s happening? Isn’t the Inevitable meeting once every ten years?
This points to something unexpected occurring.
Now that I think about it, this is the first time I meet my boss!
He waited in the quiet room of the tavern for the hours to slowly pass. Chen Ming put on his mask and found himself into a similar hall to his own, the difference laid in in size.
When he emerged, he was seated on the left side of the table, third from Inevitable.
Along with the rest, him included, it made up for eight Faceless.
Their masks were identical, but they had different standing. Chen Ming regarded the cup on the table with the number five engraved on it.
As for Inevitable, he has yet to show himself.
The rest of the Faceless attended to one another, while Nr. 1 spoke at him, “Oh, my. We have a newcomer! You should go ahead and introduce yourself.”
The other six turned to him. Chen Ming’s thoughts, What damn introduction would a Faceless have? But showed no fear nonetheless, “Humph, this senior is the Three Dragon Constellation’s General, Shan Liuyun! Please make yourselves known, everyone, as to easier notify each other when working together!”
The others looked at each other in dismay, ‘Damn! He actually went and said it!
This newcomer is as fresh as we can get!
Nr. 2 said, “Do we know who invited the new guy?”
Chen Ming feigned ignorance, “What? Is there a problem? Come on and speak who you are.”
Nr. 6 laughed, “I will bet on how long Nr. 5 will survive!”
Inevitable’s seat was suddenly taken by someone that banged the table, “Silence!”
Inevitable’s mask was one of rage. It had one word engraved on it that read: inexcusable.
Inevitable turned to Chen Ming, “Newcomer? By the rules, a newcomer needs not receive missions for a hundred years. This is your growth period, but you can listen if you like. I will not interfere in your strife among you, nor care. But when faced with a common interest, please make sure to complete your mission first!”
Inevitable continued, “Here is the mission. On the Azure Dragon Star, there is a meeting, a contest for the Eight Desolate Tyrant Body, Tian Bushou’s inheritance. All in the Transcending realm can participate. I have with me a few spots for everyone who wished to send their men over. Any that participates need to go to the Azure Dragon Star’s Four Seas Tavern to get their qualifying badge.”
As Chen Ming was paying attention, the system lady’s voice resounded, “Ding! You triggered a mission. Zhuo Qingyao has long been without a cultivation method. Please help her in seizing the Eight Desolate Tyrant Body cultivation method! Reward: one million merits.”
