NOVPUBChapter 519 -32 Gui Yuan True Venerable
As one of the significant cities of the Human Race in the Western Domain, Xiaowan City naturally had a Cross-Domain Teleportation Formation.
Lu Qingshan passed through the Teleportation Formation in Xiaowan City and successfully teleported to the Eastern Domain without any setbacks.
It was just half an hour after he had used the Cross-Domain Teleportation Formation to enter the Eastern Domain.
鈥淗uman Race Lu Qingshan appeared in Xiaowan City and passed through its Teleportation Formation, directly teleporting to Yixing City in the Eastern Domain.
Considering his route鈥 it is presumed that he is planning to return to the Sword Sect鈥 he will necessarily pass through the following cities鈥︹€
Lu Qingshan, twenty years old, Nascent Soul Early Stage Sword Cultivator, ranked first in the Seven Domains鈥 Contest of Dao, possesses the 鈥楪reat Xia Scripture鈥 (Void Refining Chapter), ranked ninety-fifth on the Yellow List.
...
Specific Cultivation: 鈥?.
Combat Power Assessment: Capable of slaying cultivators at the initial stage of Void Refining.
Evaluation: Potential for greatness, becoming a Sword Immortal is hopeful (though the probability is extremely low).
Assassination Ranking: Promoted from the second sequence to the first sequence.鈥
Two secret messages, one after the other, were sent not more than half a quarter of an hour apart, and were soon delivered to an intelligence point under the Netherworld鈥檚 flag in the Western Domain.
鈥?
Inside a grand hall.
潡堭潣佛潟橉潡?co
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Several heavy footsteps approached from afar.
A man clad in pitch-black, with eerie green eyes and an ethereal figure, walked down a silent corridor and pushed open the hall doors enveloped in a layer of black mist.
Boom!
The doors opened with a thunderous sound, revealing a vast hall with ten shiny obsidian chairs, atop which two terrifying phantoms appeared, seated upon them.
鈥淗mm?鈥漷he two phantoms on the obsidian chairs looked toward the man entering the hall, 鈥淵u Lei, what brings you to us?鈥
鈥淲en He, Lord Wang,鈥 the man with the eerie green eyes had a fierce expression, 鈥渢he plan to encircle and suppress Lu Qingshan has failed.鈥
鈥淔ailed?鈥 The two phantoms exchanged glances, with a hint of surprise as well as a trace of faint mockery, 鈥淒idn鈥檛 you lay out a meticulous trap? How could it fail?鈥
鈥淲hether Lu Qingshan took a detour or his method of concealing his aura is astonishing, he managed to evade the detection of the Illuminating Cultivation Mirror. This is a high-grade Magic Artifact provided to us by Shentu,鈥 Yu Lei Mansion Master鈥檚 face showed displeasure, 鈥淚n any case, according to my intelligence, when Lu Qingshan appeared again, he was already inside Xiaowan City.
He then headed straight for the Xiaowan City Teleportation Formation and teleported directly to the Eastern Domain. Based on his route, he鈥檚 probably planning to return to the sect.鈥
鈥淚f he is returning to the Sword Sect through his current route, he will inevitably pass through White Tower City, which presents an excellent opportunity to kill him.
The Eastern Domain is your territory, so I鈥檒l leave this matter to you two,鈥 said Yu Lei solemnly.
鈥淚t鈥檚 tricky to make a move there, as White Tower City is also a major city of the Human Race, crowded and under scrutiny.
If we act nearby, the identity of the perpetrator could be exposed鈥︹€ Wen He said somberly.
鈥淭he Demon Lord of Fengdu has already elevated this Lu Qingshan鈥檚 ranking to the first sequence,鈥 Yu Lei snorted coldly, speaking slowly, 鈥淲hether to exert effort, and how much effort to put in, is up to you to decide.鈥漖
The Netherworld was like this, tightly structured, but often each was fighting his own battle.
Not to mention the separate governance of the Seven Domains鈥 Netherworlds, even the major state branches under his Western Domain Netherworld mostly operated independently.
One reason was the peculiar composition of the Netherworld.
The members of the Netherworld included Half-Demons, Demonic Cultivators, and the Demon Race, a highly complex congregation where interests are paramount, making it even harder than reaching heaven to get them to cooperate sincerely.
Another reason was because the Mansion Masters of each domain鈥檚 Netherworld were from various major factions of the Demon Race.
The specific reasons are rather intricate, but due to differences in their Bloodlines, the Demon Race divided into various factions are historical issues, and the struggle for interests is severe, thus the Netherworld was also fragmented.
The disadvantage of this situation was that each domain鈥檚 Netherworld governed separately, and the exchange of information between them was not entirely open, some even had subtle competitive relationships.
For instance, now, as Yu Lei, a chief operating figure of the Western Domain Netherworld, communicated operational plans with the two chiefs of the Eastern Domain Netherworld, he even had to invoke the Demon Lord of Fengdu.
The advantage was that there wouldn鈥檛 be a scenario where one person鈥檚 problems would elevate to the entire Netherworld.
Just as if there were an issue in the Eastern Domain Netherworld, generally speaking, his Western Domain Netherworld would not be affected in any way.
Upon hearing that Fengdu Demon Lord had promoted Lu Qingshan to the first sequence, Wen He and Lord Wang, the two chief figures of the Eastern Domain Netherworld, ominously fell silent for a moment.
鈥淲e will take action,鈥 declared Lord Wang in a deep voice that echoed through the hall.
Then, the phantoms atop the obsidian chairs turned into wisps of smoke and faded away.
鈥淭aking advantage but still acting coy!鈥 Yu Lei Mansion Master just snorted coldly, then angrily exclaimed, 鈥淎nd these useless ones, deploying so many people, yet allowing the duck at their lips to fly away.鈥
To Yu Lei, the first sequence of a Nascent Soul Early Stage was like a pie falling from the sky.
The Netherworld lurking within the territories of the Human Race aimed not only to create chaos among the Human Race and drain their strength but also had a very important duty鈥攖o eliminate geniuses who posed a significant threat to the Demon Race.
Based on the level of threat, the Netherworld also had a ranking on its side.
However, the ranking set by the Netherworld differed slightly from the Four Lists ranking set by the Heavenly Secret Pavillion.
Because the ranking of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion was purely based on combat achievements, whereas the Netherworld considered many more factors.
For instance, Lu Qingshan鈥檚 rank of ninety-fifth on the Yellow List, by all accounts, should not be on that first sequence.
