When he saw Di Jiu’s expressionless face, You Huli took a deep breath. Then, he looked at Di Jiu and said, “Ah Jiu, did you know what happened after the Fairy Planet left? Demon beasts came to Earth. The first two years were kind of alright. Later on, however, demon beasts started to assault and massacre human cities, starting with Austria. The demon beasts have now overrun the entire Earth.”

As soon as he said that, You Huli stood up and pointed outside the conference room. “North of the Honor Parade City is a boundless snow plain. There are countless powerful demon beasts congregated there. One day, these demon beasts will come here and annihilate us all. That’s right, I did kill Fei Qi and seize the Di Clan’s Six Sabers. I know that you were friends with Fei Qi and that you saved his life. However, I had no other choice. In this day and age, I would die if I didn’t get stronger.”

“Fei Qi was unwilling to hand over the Di Clan’s Six Sabers. He claimed that they did not belong to him. I had to kill him to survive. Plus, Xun Yu had saved my life. That year, I offended someone who chased me and tried to kill me. It was Xun Yu who saved me. I have stood up for her ever since Qi Xiang imprisoned Yu’er’s elder brother. Ah Jiu, I am not trying to explain myself to you by telling you all this. I’m only saying this because we were once friends. I hope that you can understand my intentions and help me. Nowadays, one cannot survive without any strength.”

Di Jiu calmly waited for You Huli to finish speaking. He felt hopeless as he looked at his former friend. You Huli could not be considered his friend anymore. As Di Jiu looked at him, he said coolly, “In that case, why did you kill Teng Ling’er? To my knowledge, back then, Teng Ling’er’s financial state was much better than yours. Her family objected to the two of you being together and she left home to be with you. Even if you’d no longer liked her, you could just have let her go. Why kill her?”

You Huli bowed his head. He still regretted killing Teng Ling’er. After living in bloodshed for a long period of time, he had forgotten what he owed Di Jiu. However, if he had not killed Teng Ling’er, he would not have been able to be with Xun Yu.

Di Jiu took an ancient book out of his ring and threw it onto the table. “You Huli, the Di Clan’s Six Sabers that you wanted so badly had been given to Brother Fei Qi by me. Actually, they are called the Di Clan’s Seven Sabers, not Six Sabers. I have the original copy of the Di Clan’s Seven Sabers…”

Di Jiu suddenly stopped speaking. His Spiritual Force seemed to sense a gray flare flashing on the Di Clan’s Seven Sabers. The flare disappeared quickly. When his Spiritual Force landed on the book again, nothing seemed to be out of place.

This book was the copy taken away by the Abstruse Fire Sect back when the sect had exterminated the Di Family in Pearl City. It was the same copy he had seized from Liang Jueren. Could this book really hold a secret of the Di Family?

You Huli’s eyes lit up. The Di Clan’s Six Sabers had been tailored for him. He had already learned the sixth saber move. With every saber move he learned, he could feel his strength increase significantly. Now that all seven saber moves were here…

“Ah Jiu, thank you for helping me find the Seven Sabers again…” said You Huli as he reached out to grab the book. After so many years, he understood very well that nothing was more important than one’s own strength.

Di Jiu waved his hand, making the Di Clan’s Seven Sabers disappear.

He looked at You Huli coldly as he said, “I didn’t intend to give you the Di Clan’s Seven Sabers. I didn’t find the book for your sake. This is not the first time I come here. This place used to be a boxing center the last time I came here. Oh, I forgot. I killed Trustworthy during my last visit. Never would I have thought that I would be killing people again after so many years…”

“Kill him…” Xun Yu’s eyes had lit up as soon as Di Jiu had taken out the Di Clan’s Seven Sabers. When she heard that Di Jiu had killed Trustworthy, she immediately realized that he was no fool.

Bang, bang, bang! Sounds of guns being fired were suddenly heard.

As Di Jiu casually threw out some wind blades and took a life, bloody mists exploded all around.

Xun Yu’s neck was also slashed by a wind blade. That beautiful head of hers landed on the floor and rolled around like the heads of her subordinates.

You Huli looked at Di Jiu in a daze. Di Jiu had killed 30 people with a wave of his hand. His mind was suddenly blank.

Was this a Connate Realm Expert? No, that was not right. Even Connate Experts were not so powerful. The only possibility was that Di Jiu had started cultivating. He certainly seemed to possess a powerful cultivation.

“Ah Jiu…” You Huli finally reacted after several moments.

Di Jiu looked at You Huli and said, “Taking into account that you were my friend in my past life, I will allow you to kill yourself. I will not kill you.”

You Huli did not understand Di Jiu’s words. His face suddenly turned pale. The more people one killed, the more afraid of dying one became.

Bang! The sound of a gun being fired rang out before a bullet wound appeared on You Huli’s forehead.

Qi Xiang put away his handgun and said, “He would not have killed himself, Brother Jiu. If he’d had the courage to do so, he would not have done what he did.”

Qi Xiang was not surprised that Di Jiu had killed these people so easily. Although You Huli had not known how formidable Di Jiu was, he certainly did.

Di Jiu nodded his head in agreement. “Qi Xiang, you created a faction just like You Huli did?”

Qi Xiang shook his head. “No. The demon beasts are currently becoming increasingly powerful. Most people on Earth have been restricted to living in cities with large amounts of defensive mechanisms. One must be strong personally if one wishes to leave their city. Creating our own adventure teams has currently been internationally approved. My people are part of the No. 9 adventure team. However, adventure teams are not allowed to permanently stay in a city. They can only stay in cities like the Honor Parade City, where there are essentially no defensive measures or citizens. Adventure teams can alternatively rest at staging posts. This is also why only experts stay in the Honor Parade City. There are no laws protecting the people within.”

Di Jiu, who knew that the name of Qi Xiang’s adventure team was related to him as soon as he heard it, patted Qi Xiang on the shoulder and said, “Ask your team members to wait outside. I would like to speak with you.”

Qi Xiang waved his hand. “Annihilate the entire Fox Adventure Team waiting outside. Anyone who is willing to follow us can do so. Brother Jiu will be our leader from now on.”

After everyone had left, Qi Xiang said, “Brother Jiu, I also have something important to tell you. After you left, a monk called Monk Red Dust came from the Wang Chuan Temple to find you. He said that he had a very urgent matter he would like to discuss with you. He also said that it was related to your life. However, I thought that you’d gone to the Fairy Planet.”

“Where is Monk Red Dust then?” asked Di Jiu anxiously. One of the main reasons he had come back was to find Monk Red Dust.

“I’m afraid Monk Red Dust went to the Fairy Planet.” Qi Xiang slapped his own head, looking vexed. If he had not assumed that Di Jiu had gone to the Fairy Planet, he would not have misled Monk Red Dust.

Qi Xiang knew Monk Red Dust. It was said that the monk never lied, so anything he said would definitely be true. This was why Qi Xiang had dared not disregard Monk Red Dust’s words.

Di Jiu felt helpless. He had missed Monk Red Dust… He immediately decided to head to the Polar Night Continent and search for the monk in the future. Many cultivators who went to the Fairy Planet appeared in the Polar Night Continent for no reason. Since Monk Red Dust had also gone to the Fairy Planet, it was possible that he would appear in the Polar Night Continent as well.

“Qi Xiang, I will be leaving Earth soon…”

“Ah…” Qi Xiang was stunned by Di Jiu’s words. Leaving Earth?

Di Jiu stopped Qi Xiang from asking any questions. He recounted what he had experienced in the last few years before saying, “I need to transcend space. That’s why I cannot bring you along. I will teach you the cultivation technique and leave you some cultivating resources. How far you go will depend on you. If you’re still alive when I come back to Earth again, I will bring you along. We’ll leave Earth together.”

“I want to learn, Brother Jiu. I have to learn. The demon beasts on Earth are growing increasingly powerful. If there is no formidable person around, the Earth will most likely get dominated by the demon beasts soon,” said Qi Xiang anxiously.

Di Jiu smiled. “You don’t have to worry. Before I leave, I will kill all the demon beasts at or above level-two on Earth. When you attain the Golden Core Realm, level-three demon beasts will be a piece of cake for you.”

Di Jiu could help Qi Xiang open a galaxy meridian and give him some cultivating resources. He believed that Qi Xiang was capable of attaining the Essence Soul Realm.

Luo Jin City was near the Forgetful River Mountain Range. Its location, in combination with the presence of an Institute of Martial Arts, had helped it become the nation’s strongest defense.

Outside the city were rings of laser walls and laser cannons. The defense there was tighter than on the Fairy Planet.

At the moment, at least eight Connate Experts were gathered in a massive conference room. This was Luo Jin City’s demon beast defense command room. There was even a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator present.

However, the attendants’ strength meant nothing. Everyone in the conference room looked gloomy. The level-four red tiger residing in the deep recesses of the Forgetful River Mountain Range had started migrating towards the outer region of the mountain range. It was certain that this tiger would eventually reach Luo Jin City.

A white-haired elder sighed and said, “I’m afraid that the past calamity the Fairy Planet suffered will occur again. To my knowledge, the red tiger is even more powerful than the violent ape that attacked the Fairy Planet.”

No one spoke. Everyone had seen a video of what had happened on the Fairy Planet. It had made people uneasy to watch the terrifying Beast Tide assault the Fairy Square, even though they had not really witnessed this event personally.

As everyone was frowning worriedly, a middle-aged man rushed into the conference room and said excitedly, “The level-three fox demon king of the Limitless 1,000-Mile Mountain was killed by someone with a saber move…”
