Chapter 588: Ye Xiwen is Back!!

Translator: Novel Saga Editor: Novel Saga

"Let's not talk about him. Sister had said a while ago that the Merit Palace Hall can buy all kinds of heavenly treasures?" Ye Xiwen's eyes flashed as he looked at Gao Ling Xiu and said.

Gao Ling Xiu deserved to be called an outstanding female expert. She had switched to her good mood in an instant. She had stopped worrying about Young Master Jin Xiu's matter for the time being.

"Yes! Our Merit Palace Hall is also interested in the heavenly treasures that are mentioned in your list," Gao Ling Xiu said. Merit Palace Hall was basically the place where every disciple used to exchange their accumulated merit points for all kinds of heavenly treasures.

However, these heavenly treasures naturally didn't fall from sky. The Merit Palace Hall had to use all kinds of methods to purchase these heavenly treasures. In fact, this was a very common practice in every force.

"We'll give 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' or an equivalent amount of points of the university for these things," Gao Ling Xiu said.

"I'll exchange them for 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans'!" Ye Xiwen replied. He would've chosen the points initially when his strength was very weak. This was because he couldn't obtain good things from the university unless he provided huge amounts of points in exchange. However, it was very easy for him to earn points by completing missions as per his current level of strength.

Moreover, the 'Primary Spirit Dans' were obvioulsy more important to him as compared to the points at present.

He already had 700 million 'Primary Spirit Dans'; he had seized them from Young Master Jin Xiu. So, he would have a total of 1.7 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' after having these 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans'. This would be enough for him to cultivate up to the Great Sage realm even if his insane consumption of 'Primary Spirit Dans' during cultivation was taken into account.

However, these 1.7 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' could enable the star colossus avatar to fight just three times! 1.7 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' was an astronomical amount in other people's opinion. However, it was barely enough to make the star colossus avatar fight three times as far as Ye Xiwen was concerned.

However, these were three lifesaving opportunities for him. After all, he could escape even if a formidable Great Sage expert attacked him in case he had the support of the star colossus avatar.

Therefore, Ye Xiwen's confidence would indeed be boosted after having 1.7 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans'.

Gao Ling Xiu was also very straightforward. She didn't hesitate, and immediately threw a storage ring containing 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' towards Ye Xiwen. These were top quality 'Primary Spirit Dans'. In fact, there was a kind of small world composed of piles of these dans inside the ring. It was a marvellous sight!

Ye Xiwen had no choice but to sigh with emotion. [These disciples who go out on special missions are very wealthy. I'd just now discovered a wealth of over 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' on Young Master Jin Xiu's body. And now, Gao Ling Xiu took out 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans' as soon as I made the deal. She didn't hesitate at all in taking out 1 billion 'Primary Spirit Dans'.]

[However, I reckon not many people would dare to think about fighting with them. On one hand, they possess so much tyrannical strength that it's impossible to kill them unless a Great Sage expert attacks. On the other hand, one may have to face the crazy retaliation of the big forces that are backing these people if they dared to go against them.]

Ye Xiwen also didn't hesitate. He put the heavenly treasures that he had already prepared inside a storage ring, and gave it to Gao Ling Xiu.

Gao Ling Xiu swept her divine sense into the ring once to confirm that all the traded goods were present. Then, her face immediately exposed a smile. After all, she had purchased so many urgently needed heavenly treasures in one fell swoop. It was naturally a big accomplishment for her.

"Brother Ye, what next? Are you planning to return for your appointment?" Gao Ling Xiu asked. She secretly sighed as her heart was overwhelmed with emotion. [Ye Xiwen and Cao Yuyu's battle appointment! Ye Xiwen had shown no weakness even while facing Mu Sheng Jie, and he became a legend in the university because of it. A lot of people are already regretting that the top heaven's pride expert of this generation who has risen to fame so suddenly will die this time. After all, Cao Yuyu is much stronger than Ye Xiwen. He also used to be a heaven's pride expert back in the day. And, It's hard to say how much stronger he has become now that several hundred years have passed since then. So, who would be optimistic about Ye Xiwen's chances in this battle appointment which is going to happen only ten years after their last meeting?]

She also wouldn't have been optimistic about Ye Xiwen's chances if she hadn't seen him in action with her own eyes. However, he was way too amazing. He had unexpectedly become tyrannical to such an extent in just about a decade's time.

"Of course! After all, some matters need to be ended quickly!" Ye Xiwen sneered and replied. He had indeed left for Meteor World to complete Northern Dipper Organization's mission. However, he had another equally important reason for doing that... He wanted to avoid confrontation with Cao Yuyu and Mu Sheng Jie.

After all, he hadn't even reached the sage realm at that time. So, it was very likely that he would've died if Cao Yuyu had launched an attack on him. On top of that, Mu Sheng Jie was also there. Cao Yuyu probably wouldn't have attacked Ye Xiwen before the time of battle appointment if Cao Yuyu still obeyed the rules. However, the same couldn't be said when it came to Mu Sheng Jie. After all, what kind of rules could be set for a man of his stature?

He could've killed Ye Xiwen with the snap of his finger. And, the higher-ups wouldn't have gotten time to react even if they had wanted to save him.

After all, one person was a newly emerged heaven's pride expert, while the other possessed tyrannical talent. He possessed overbearing strength and unmatched battle experience. He had even performed an outstandaing military service for the university. So, Ye Xiwen knew who they would've chosen. The higher-ups might have punished Mu Sheng Jie for inviting the rage of the Hidden Star Peak. However, Ye Xiwen would've already died by then. Therefore, it wouldn't have mattered what punishment they would've given Mu Sheng Jie. After all, it would've been of no significance to him.

Besides, Ye Xiwen had seen himself what his fellow eldest disciple of Hidden Star Peak had done when War Dead Star Peak had crossed the line and attacked the Hidden Star Peak. Big Brother had rushed into the private microcosm of the War Dead Star Peak, and had chased down their Head as well as their ancestral elder everywhere. They had been forced to flee in a distressed situation in the end... Therefore, Ye Xiwen knew that the rules and whatnot were only subjective.

Ye Xiwen couldn't take that risk. Therefore, he had chosen to go to the Meteor World in order to stay far away from Mu Sheng Jie and Cao Yuyu. However, the situation was different now. Now, his strength had increased enormously. It could be said that he could suppress outstanding heroes with his current skills. Cao Yuyu wasn't a match for him now! And, Mu Sheng Jie also couldn't kill him even if he personally attacked.

Cao Yuyu's battle appointment had been like a hanging sword above him. But, it was now the time to finally go back, and wipe out this threat once and for all.

"Brother Ye, we can return together if that's the case. After all, my mission from ten years ago has already been completed now that I've purchased these heavenly treasures," Gao Ling Xiu smiled. "However, hasn't Brother Ye ever thought about joining our Merit Palace Hall? Brother Ye can probably get a high position as per his current cultivation if he decides to join. Thereafter, our Merit Palace Hall won't sit idly and watch even if the Law Enforcement Hall rose in revolt against you."

Ye Xiwen shook his head and refused. He wasn't fond of bindings just like the other people of the Hidden Star Peak. There were certainly many benefits of joining the Merit Palace Hall. However, he would also get caught into handling trivial matters. He would unceasingly receive all kinds of tasks. And, that would delay his cultivation in his opinion.

In fact, he had joined Northern Dipper organization precisely because he had seen that there was much freedom there. He could choose to go on a mission for them if he truly needed some items and was in need of points to trade.

"That's a pity!" Gao Ling Xiu said. However, she didn't continue to persuade him. She could see that Ye Xiwen had already made up his mind. Moreover, he seemed very firm on his decision.

The two didn't stay there any longer, and directly flew towards the True Martial University. The current cultivation of both individuals was very high. So, it took them just half-a-days' time to reach to the True Martial World from the Wind Dragon City.

They flew all the way inside the True Martial World, and then flew towards the True Martial University.

They saw the True Martial Mountain Range located at a distant place in the center of the True Martial University, and the cluster of cities in its periphery.

However, Ye Xiwen hadn't seen much when he felt that the 'spirit energies' present in the surroundings were rushing in towards the True Martial University at a terrifying speed. Just ordinary air was left behind after the 'spirit energies' had been sucked away.

He felt as if a giant beast was lurking in these incomparably huge True Martial Mountains and was breathing.

"What is this?" Ye Xiwen was startled.

"Someone is cultivating therein. I don't know what kind of cultivation method he practises. However, it seems that his breathing can unexpectedly make the world change its color!" Ye Mo said.

It was widely known that experts had to consume a certain amount of 'spirit energies' during cultivation. And, there were three methods for that... The first one was to use 'spirit dans' and 'spirit stones'. The second one was to use some special heavenly treasures which contained incredible 'spirit energies'. And, the last one was to directly absorb the 'spirit energies' present in the atmosphere.

The last method was clearly much more inefficient than the first two. This was because the presence of 'spirit energies' in the environment was very thin. On top of that, they weren't homogenously distributed in the atmosphere.

However, Ye Xiwen could see that this person was sucking in the amount of 'spirit energies' contained in thousand 'Primary Spirit Dans' with each breath.

So, he secretly became startled. [It's impossible for a sage expert to breath in such huge amounts of spirit energies. In fact, it's impossible for even a Great Sage expert to reach to such terrifying degree.]

[This is simply world-shaking!]

However, Gao Ling Xiu soon cleared Ye Xiwen's confusion.

"This is brother Mu Sheng Jie of Law Enforcement Hall. He is cultivating at this moment. It is said that he had returned a decade ago from the ancient ruins after obtaining enormous benefits. Now, he is undergoing 'closed-door training' in order to make a breakthrough. It is said that he'll soon make this breakthrough. And, it will become even more difficult to find a match for him in the university at that time." Gao Ling Xiu said, and shot a glance at Ye Xiwen.

The clash between Ye Xiwen and a wisp of Mu Sheng Jie's soul had caused a sensation in the True Martial University back then. But, it wasn't because he had defeated Mu Sheng Jie's wisp of soul. Instead, it was because he had boldly challenged Mu Sheng Jie.

Everyone had been left in shock. They could just say this — [Everyone in the Hidden Star Peak is abnormal. There isn't a single normal person among them].

Ye Xiwen especially remembered that it hadn't made such huge noise when Mu Sheng Jie had started his 'closed-door training' a decade ago. However, he could now feel that Mu Sheng Jie's strength was increasing by a bit with every breath that he was taking. Perhaps, it would be very difficult to find a rival for him by the time he came out.

Ye Xiwen was just slightly surprised by the fact that Mu Sheng Jie hadn't come out of the closed-door training yet. However, he then recalled that it was normal for the Great Sage experts to continue 'closed-door training' for decades or even centuries.

Ye Xiwen felt butterflies in his belly... Ye Xiwen could summon the star colossus avatar to aid him. So, he was confident that it would be very difficult for Mu Sheng Jie to kill him even after Mu Sheng Jie had made a breakthrough. However, that didn't change the fact that Ye Xiwen's opponent was becoming increasingly powerful with each passing moment.

Ye Xiwen and Gao Ling Xiu didn't stay in the periphery for a long time. They soon entered the True Martial Mountains. Thereafter, they parted ways. Gao Ling Xiu returned to the Merit Palace Hall to report about the completion of her mission. However, Ye Xiwen didn't return to his abode on the Metropolis Single Peak. Instead, he returned to the Hidden Star Peak.

"Ye Xiwen is back!"

Ye Xiwen didn't conceal his presence after he entered inside the True Martial Mountains. Therefore, he was immediately discovered by many people who had sharp vision.

Ye Xiwen's and Cao Yuyu's battle appointment had shaken everyone for a while a decade ago. Countless people had been looking forward to that fight. However, Ye Xiwen had disappeared afterwards, and hadn't appeared again. So, the rumour about Ye Xiwen escaping just before the battle had made noise for a while. The people of Law Enforcement Hall had especially dragged this matter. They just wouldn't let it go.

A decade had passed in an instant, and most people had almost forgotten about this matter. But, Ye Xiwen had appeared once again.

Chapter 589: What? I Challenged You! What of It?

Translator: Novel Saga Editor: Novel Saga

"Ye Xiwen has returned. I'm not mistaken. That's truly him!"

"He has dared to return? Hadn't he escaped?"

"Do you believe everything that the Law Enforcement Hall says? He has returned. So, doesn't it prove that the rumour that he had escaped was false?"

"He has indeed returned. But, will he be able to deal with Cao Yuyu?"

"That's absolutely impossible. What was Ye Xiwen a dozen years ago? He wasn't even a sage expert. However, Cao Yuyu had already entered the Sage Accomplished realm by that time. And now, he has advanced a step further, and entered the initial stage of half-step Great Sage realm. He'll certainly enter the Great Sage realm within a hundred years. Ye Xiwen may be very talented. But, it's impossible for him to overtake Cao Yuyu!"

"Anyway, the people of the Law Enforcement Hall aren't going to spare Ye Xiwen now that he has returned. A big battle will certainly take place once again. I saw that Ye Xiwen's aura is calm and steady. So, he has obviously entered the sage realm already. He has entered sage realm within such a short time! Moreover, his cultivation looks profound. Ye Xiwen hasn't let down the title of heaven's pride expert!"

"Heaven's pride expert? That's laughable. What's the use of heaven's pride experts? So many talents arrive here every year. There are also some heaven's pride experts among them. However, most of them eventually fall from sky. There are many geniuses in our True Martial University... just like there are many dogs. So many people arrive here in every session. Throw a brick on these people, and 9 out of 10 people it falls on would turn out to be ordinary talents. Only one among them would turn out to be a super-talent who could grow and become a Great Sage and have the last laugh."

Countless people had started discussing spiritedly because of Ye Xiwen's return. In fact, his arrival seemed to have caused a sensation.

The disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall were especially clamouring unceasingly.

"We would've spared Ye Xiwen's life if he had laid low for his entire life and not come here. However, he has dared to return. Does he have a death wish?"

"The time of his death has come now that he has returned. He's very arrogant and despotic. After all, this is an offence towards our Law Enforcement Hall."

However, everyone soon lost their voices. This was because all kinds of matrix formations of the Hidden Star Peak suddenly got activated not long after Ye Xiwen's return to the Hidden Star Peak; especially the matrix formations that absorbed 'spirit energies' got unleashed in full force. It seemed for a moment as if the world had lost its color. Countless 'spirit energies' immediately began to surge towards the Hidden Star Peak. The situation didn't remain like earlier when the entire 'spirit energies' were rushing towards the peak on which Mu Sheng Jie was. In fact, the majority of 'spirit energies' in the surroundings had been snatched away almost in an instant.

Mu Sheng Jie possessed incredible strength. On top of that, Hidden Star Peak seemed to have declined now even though it was once ranked among the Top 10 powerful inheritances. However, a person would get scared to death if the Hidden Star Peak's profound and tyrannical background were to be explained casually to them. This represented the so-called saying 'a centipede dies, but never falls down'.

Not a single person had joined the Hidden Star Peak for many years prior to Ye Xiwen's generation. Still, nobody dared to mess with them. After all, the chiefs of Hidden Star Peak in every generation had been tyrannical people from the True Martial University. Moreover, the heritage left behind by its experts of past generations was also a very important factor.

This so-called background might not be visible on ordinary days. So, many people who didn't understand the situation of the Hidden Star Peak believed that it was easy to bully it. However, the people who were truly knowledgeable knew that the Hidden Star Peak wasn't dreadful because of a ferocious and unruly first disciple like Huang Wuji.

Instead, the most terrifying aspect of Hidden Star Peak was that it possessed a terrifying background!

For instance... Ye Xiwen had just now attracted 70-80% of the 'spirit energies' of entire True Martial Mountains by launching the matrix formations.

Mu Sheng Jie indeed possessed very tyrannical strength. However, the disparity between him and these matrix formations which had been strengthened by the Hidden Star Peak's ancestors of the previous generations got prominently revealed all of a sudden.

Ye Xiwen's martial power was limited. So, he could attract only 70-80% of the spirit energies in the atmosphere. However, not a bit of the 'spirit energies' would've been left for Mu Sheng Jie if it had been Huang Wuji in Ye Xiwen's place.

Those people of the Law Enforcement Hall had been clamouring initially. But, Ye Xiwen's stance had left them to feel unwell. In fact, they suddenly felt as if they had swallowed a housefly... Their complexions had turned very red.

They had unceasingly spread the rumours in public that Ye Xiwen was a coward... that he was a person who would run away from a problem. And, they were still at it even though Ye Xiwen had returned. They were simply looking down on him.

They believed that Ye Xiwen was nothing more than an ant that had dared to challenge an elephant.

They were in no rush to go look for trouble with Ye Xiwen. However, they hadn't expected that Ye Xiwen would turn the hand and give them a slap.

[Hadn't you all said that I'm a coward who refuses to face a problem and can't dare to act?

[Now, I'll show you!]

[Moreover, this discoloration of the world is my way of picking a fight with Mu Sheng Jie.]

[I've picked a fight with you... What of it?]

Most people used to consider Mu Sheng Jie as one of the top candidates for the position of the next University Head because of his dreadful strength and illustrious reputation. Even those old monsters who had been staying hidden inside the True Martial University for many years didn't dare to challenge him. So, it was needless to talk about the disciples of his generation.

However, Ye Xiwen had dared to do so. And, it was a big slap on the face of the Law Enforcement Hall.

[Don't you want to cultivate? I'll make it difficult for you!]

It could be said that the experts who joined the True Martial University didn't depend too much on the 'spirit energies' present in the environment for their cultivation. After all, the speed of absorbing 'spirit energies' from the atmosphere was extremely slow to meet their requirements. So, they would often use 'spirit stones' or 'spirit dans' for their cultivation. In fact, absorbing the 'spirit energies' of the world was just as an auxiliary method for them.

The 'spiritual arteries' of every peak were locked by all kinds of matrix formations, and wouldn't be affected by the absorption of spirit energies.

This was why Mu Sheng Jie had been absorbing the 'spirit energies' of the surroundings so unscrupulously. Otherwise, he would have to retreat while facing the protest of the surging masses no matter how powerful he was. After all, he couldn't face all the experts of the university alone.

However, everyone knew that Ye Xiwen had targeted Mu Sheng Jie. He might not have been able to cause a huge impact on him. However, it was a challenging stance nonetheless.

[I've picked a fight with you... What of it?]

Those disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall became aghast after they came to know of Ye Xiwen's intentions... as if they had eaten a dead rat. They began to clamour.

Ye Xiwen had dared to make so much noise. This simply meant that he had looked down on their Law Enforcement Hall. He had thrown a tight slap on their faces. Consequently, a lot of them had begun to shout that they should destroy the Hidden Star Peak as well as this ignorant guy.

"What do you mean by destroy the Hidden Star Peak? Is Hidden Star Peak a foreign enemy? It's unreasonable. Get lost from here!"

Perhaps, a group of enraged disciples of Law Enforcement Hall would've already attacked the Hidden Star Peak if an authority figure of the Law Enforcement Hall hadn't said this.

However, one would be gravely mistaken if they thought that this authority figure of the Law Enforcement Hall was biased in favour of Ye Xiwen. Let's presume that True Martial University were a country with its left-wing and right-wing. Then, these people of the Law Enforcement Hall would be the members of the right-wing. In fact, they would belong to the extreme right-wing. They were the followers of right-wing radical ideology through and through.

The enmity between Ye Xiwen and Law Enforcement Hall went a long way back. So, how could they let him off so easily?

"The appointment that has been pending for a decade must be finished now that he has returned."

The strong voice of an old man immediately covered the entire True Martial Mountain Range.

The disciples of the True Martial University became excited as a result. [Is the battle about to start?]

They had waited for more than a decade for this fight. It should be mentioned that they had already waited enough. But, that wait was finally over now.

Now, they were waiting for a reply from the Hidden Star Peak's side.

Huang Wuji had once caused chaos in the entire War Dead Star Peak. And, that had made everyone have a whole new level of respect for the strength and background of the Hidden Star Peak. They had realized that it wasn't a good idea to mess with anyone from the Hidden Star Peak even if this peak didn't have too many people.

"Ha ha ha… I'm extremely delighted. I didn't like to see Mu Sheng Jie's arrogant and despotic appearance. Young brother, you did well. You've boldly given him a tight slap. They won't act arrogantly anymore," Bai Jian Song burst into laughter inside Hidden Star Peak's main hall. He was extremely carefree.

There was a big enmity between the people of the Hidden Star Peak and the Law Enforcement Hall because of Big Brother Huang Wuji. Bai Jian Song had been attacked many times by the people of Law Enforcement Hall when he had just entered True Martial University and joined the Hidden Star Peak. And, this had happened precisely because of Huang Wuji.

Therefore, Bai Jian Song didn't have a good opinion regarding these people who were in charge of managing everything. Basically, conflicts would break out between the two sides from time to time.

Bai Jian Song's strength had become even more tyrannical after he had entered Great Sage realm. He had now obtained a very high position in the True Martial University. Therefore, he had become even more dismissive towards Law Enforcement Hall's people.

"Third Brother is right. Younger brother has thrown a slap on their faces with his method," Yang Wen Jun was beside them; he also laughed out. He had also received a lot of trouble from Law Enforcement Hall's disciples in all the years of his stay at the Hidden Star Peak.

It was just that he and Deng Shui Xin weren't as powerful as Huang Wuji. So, they could dare to resist the Law Enforcement Hall. They also didn't have incredible innate talent like Bai Jian Song.

And, they couldn't even be compared to a monster like Ye Xiwen. They all had suffered many hidden losses at the hands of the Law Enforcement Hall over the years. Therefore, no one on the Hidden Star Peak had disagreed when Ye Xiwen had said that he wanted to pull this off.

Hidden Star Peak indeed had only a few people. In fact, counting them as a 'few' would also be an overstatement.

"Our younger brother is indeed not a human. He has always been a monster!" Deng Shui Xin said. Yan Wen Jun who was sitting next to her was also nodding. It seemed as if he totally agreed with her.

However, Ye Xiwen had become depressed. [Is this a compliment? It sounds like abusing to me.]

"Congratulations younger brother... The Great Sage realm is almost within your reach!" Bai Jian Song suddenly said after he shot a glance at Ye Xiwen. "He he… What kind of genius haven't I seen in my entire life? Heaven's pride experts are nothing in my eyes. However, I've never seen a ferocious person like younger brother. Younger brother has already effortlessly crossed the mountain that ordinary people find very hard to cross. Great Sage realm is just a matter of time for him now. It seems that our Hidden Star Peak will have another Great Sage expert in less than a hundred years!"

Ye Xiwen certainly understood what Bai Jian Song was saying. What he had meant was obvious – Ye Xiwen's soul had already completely transformed, and had become comparable to that of a Great Sage. This was the first step for the ambitious people who wanted to reach to the Great Sage realm. However, it was also the most difficult one. Great Sage realm would be just a matter of time after one had crossed this step.

Bai Jian Song had been stuck in this step for 50 years before he had completed the transformation of his soul. This could already be regarded as an incomparably fast speed. However, Ye Xiwen had taken much lesser time to cross this step. So, how could this thing not have amazed Bai Jian Song?
