244: Chapter 244 Hundred Mile Mad Blade

Lan Ninger: "It's normal that you haven't seen them; if they were discovered by you, the Demon Gods would have likely vanished without a trace."

"By the way, do you all cultivate Bloodline Power here? What level of strength do you specifically reach?"

"Mm-hmm, everyone cultivates Bloodline Power. The strongest are at Ninth-level Emperor Realm Peak... as for how that compares to the outside world, I'm not sure," Bai Yaoyao replied.

Mu Cheng: "It seems that's the peak of the Realm King God level!"

After pondering seriously, he asked, "Speaking of which, has the Endless Waste only recently started showing abnormal movements? Has your strength been affected?"

"Are you suspecting it's related to the return of the Heavenly Dao?" Xiao Luolu reacted instantly.

"Our strength hasn't been affected, but the Endless Waste did indeed start rioting just a short while ago," Bai Yaoyao replied.

Lan Ninger: "Strength is unaffected... Luolu, it seems you shouldn't be affected either, right? As for the riots, they really do seem related to the Heavenly Dao."

"Regarding the Heavenly Dao, Yaoyao, how much do you know?"

"Eh? It's true, I'm not affected now." Xiao Luolu was a bit dazed; she had still been affected when they first arrived.

Now, she truly was no longer affected.

Mu Cheng: "It's better if you aren't affected; anyway, we still have things to do."

"I haven't heard of the Heavenly Dao, but I do know a legend in this world: when someone breaks through the Emperor Realm Peak to reach a new height, they can leave for the outside world," Bai Yaoyao replied.

Xiao Luolu: "Hmm? No... if it were really that simple, Lingling wouldn't have gone through so much trouble back then."

"Mm-hmm, there are only two candidates with absolute certainty; even if others break through, they likely won't be able to do it. So next... you should get as many spirit stones as possible and settle the riots," Lan Ninger finally decided.

Spirit stones would definitely become a hot commodity in the future, so they had to get as many as possible while they had the chance.

"Aren't there enough in the New Continent? There must be several hundred billion at least!" Mu Cheng said dismissively.

Lan Ninger: "No, no, no. After the spiritual energy recovery, spirit stones will be like cold, hard cash. Who would complain about having too much?"

"Sister Ninger is right... we might even need Bloodline Power to cultivate in the future," Xiao Luolu agreed.

The main point was that increasing Bloodline Power was much easier than breaking through the Shackles.

Although their strength was already terrifying, who would complain about having an extra boost from Bloodline Power?

"Fine! Yaoyao... roughly how many Top-grade Spirit Stones does the Worlds Number One Tower have in total right now?" Mu Cheng asked casually.

Bai Yaoyao: "Across the four Worlds Number One Towers, there are probably about five quadrillion Top-grade Spirit Stones!"

"Wow! That many? That's even more than what was in the future back then," Xiao Luolu said in shock.

Mu Cheng: "Alright! Then, Sister Ninger... you and Yaoyao make the arrangements, while Sister Luoluou and I head to the Endless Waste."

Lan Ninger: "Fine! Leave the spirit stone mining to us..."

"Oh... I almost forgot the main business. Sister Ninger, connect to my bracelet; there are a lot of good things inside," Xiao Luolu suddenly remembered.

Mu Cheng was speechless. "So... from the time we got back until now, you still hadn't given it to Sister Ninger?"

"Giving it now isn't too late; it's not like it's overdue anyway." Although Xiao Luolu was in the wrong, she didn't sound intimidated at all.

Lan Ninger: "Great, such an important matter... and you're only telling me now? Forget it, you two hurry to the Endless Waste."

"Sister Ninger, have you tried teleporting?" Mu Cheng suddenly asked.

Lan Ninger: "Give me some time. It wasn't possible just now, but with these things, it will be."

"Just back everything up! You can study it yourself." Xiao Luolu didn't actually understand it very well either.

Many, many things were just backed up, but considering it was a full seven days' worth of backups, one could imagine it was a massive amount.

"This... will probably take about a month. The volume of information is just too large, but for us, it will be a qualitative leap." Lan Ninger was very certain about this.

This data was the crystallization of over two thousand years of records...

"It seems we can only wait for now." Mu Cheng really had no better way.

Bai Yaoyao didn't linger and began to make preparations...

About an hour later, Lan Ninger's voice came through.

"Alright, I've basically understood the situation in Purgatory... the so-called demonic cultivation is similar to your Devouring Bloodline."

"Eh? Can you explain that more clearly?" Mu Cheng was a bit confused.

Lan Ninger: "To put it clearly, it's absorbing and refining other people's cultivation to make oneself stronger."

"It really is similar to your Devouring Bloodline, except they use it on the wrong people," Xiao Luolu remarked.

Mu Cheng: "Alright! So what... do we plan to do next?"

"The cause of the riot is just the discovery of a prison emitting so-called demonic qi—to put it bluntly, demonic energy," Lan Ninger pondered.

She finally made a decision. "Anyway, demonic cultivators aren't all bad people. For example, the Demon God Clan says the Blue-White Star is theirs, and we say the same."

"So this kind of conflict can only be resolved with force."

"Can you explain that more clearly?" Mu Cheng expressed his confusion.

Xiao Luolu: "Don't you understand yet? Demonic cultivators... are actually misunderstood, so Sister Ninger wants a peaceful resolution."

"Eh? Caught in the middle of them? This... might be hard to resolve, right?" Mu Cheng pondered, not knowing what to do.

Lan Ninger: "Isn't that simple? I can already help teleport you over. Whoever still wants to cause trouble, just beat them until they submit."

"Capture the leader... then have a good talk. That really is a good idea," Xiao Luolu agreed.

Mu Cheng: "Fine! Sister Ninger, please help teleport us... we'll go meet both sides."

"The Yi Zheng Alliance and the Heavenly Demon Sect are at the site of the riot. As long as you can put the bracelets on them, I can teleport them."

As soon as Lan Ninger finished speaking, the two were instantly teleported to a canyon.

Below the canyon was a complex of buildings that looked quite luxurious and high-end...

"This is the Yi Zheng Alliance. I don't need to teach you what to do, right?" Lan Ninger's voice came through.

Mu Cheng scratched his head, looking lost. "Speaking of which... what should we do?"

"Are you a pig-brain? Why waste so many words on something that can be solved with violence? Hurry up and keep up!"

Xiao Luolu took out the kaioken and operated it to charge directly into the Yi Zheng Alliance's camp...

"True, just get it done!" Mu Cheng finally reacted.

With their strength, they could walk through this place unchallenged... so there was no need to worry at all.

Soon, the two of them charged straight into the Yi Zheng Alliance.

"People inside, go report to your Alliance Leader quickly. We have something to discuss with him," Xiao Luolu shouted domineeringly.

"Someone's coming, someone come quickly! Someone is here to cause trouble."

As a voice shouted out, a countless number of white-robed Taoists quickly surrounded Xiao Luolu.

"Hmm? Are you treating my words as wind passing your ears?" Xiao Luolu wasn't polite at all; she stepped forward and smashed a fist into the ground.

Just the shockwave alone sent a large group of people flying in an instant...

"Take it easy, we're here to talk," Mu Cheng hurriedly reminded her.

Xiao Luolu: "Don't worry! I know what I'm doing."

"Damn it, everyone together, kill him." One person led the charge, and a swarm of them rushed at Xiao Luolu.

Xiao Luolu wasn't polite either, throwing another punch that similarly sent a large group flying.

As the commotion grew louder... a white-robed old man finally arrived.

"Who are you? How dare you come to our Yi Zheng Alliance to cause trouble?" He came aggressively and was clearly a man of strength.

"Sister Luoluou, this guy should be at the Emperor Realm Peak," Mu Cheng had just warned.

But unexpectedly, in just an instant, Xiao Luolu had him pinned to the ground, rubbing his face in the dirt.

"Eh? What did you just say?" She asked Mu Cheng, pretending she hadn't heard him.

"Pretend I said nothing," Mu Cheng said, feeling very awkward.

"The Fifth Elder... has been defeated."

"What's going on? Could they be demonic cultivators?"

"Such terrifying strength, we'd better go invite the Alliance Leader!"

...In an instant, they became a disorganized mess.

"You... what exactly do you want?" The Fifth Elder finally backed down.

"Too weak, no fun at all." Xiao Luolu retracted her mecha and threatened the Fifth Elder.

"Don't give me any nonsense, take me to see the Alliance Leader immediately."

"Alright, alright, I'll take you there right now," the Fifth Elder said.

But in his heart, he thought: Good, I'd like to see... what exactly you're trying to do.

"Hmm? He agreed so readily?" Mu Cheng instinctively felt things weren't that simple.

But after reacting, he didn't take it to heart. "Hurry up and lead the way!"

"Who exactly are you? Why have you come to my Yi Zheng Alliance?" Another voice came.

It was an even older man, also at the Emperor Realm Peak, but his aura was significantly stronger than the Fifth Elder's.

"And who are you? The Alliance Leader here?" Xiao Luolu asked.

The old Alliance Leader nodded. "This old man is indeed the Alliance Leader. What exactly do you want?"

He wasn't stupid; he knew the strength of these two... was absolutely unfathomable, so he wanted to clarify the situation first.

"I'm giving you an official notice: recall your people from the Endless Waste immediately," Xiao Luolu said, getting straight to the point without nonsense.

Alliance Leader: "Demonic cultivators commit all kinds of evil; I'm afraid I cannot agree."

"No, no, no. I said I'm notifying you, not asking for your agreement." Xiao Luolu moved again in an instant.

She pinned the Alliance Leader directly to the ground and repeated her question: "Is that clear?"

"Hmph! Demonic cultivators are demonic cultivators. If you have the ability, then kill me; it's impossible for me to withdraw my people." The Alliance Leader was quite stubborn.

Xiao Luolu released her killing intent as a threat. "Is that so! Then there's no need for the Yi Zheng Alliance to exist anymore."

"You... dare? How are you any different from a demonic cultivator?" The Alliance Leader didn't believe her at all.

Mu Cheng instantly got angry. "Hmm? Is your brain filled with water? Or is this Alliance Leader just a blockhead?"

"Demonic cultivators have existed for so many years, why would they choose to riot only recently? Or are you the ones who initiated it?"

"Why don't you give me a reason? Exactly what evil have the demonic cultivators committed?"

"This... anyway, demonic cultivators are demonic cultivators; they are evil to the core, and that's something that cannot be changed." The Alliance Leader began to feel a bit guilty.

"This kid seems to have a way with words; let's see for now," Xiao Luolu thought to herself.

Mu Cheng finally confirmed his guess and said, "I am a demonic cultivator, and now I've come to exterminate you. What are you going to do about it?"

After speaking, he directly released his Black Vine. The terrifying aura... made the Alliance Leader tremble with fear.

"You... really are a demonic cultivator? How is this possible?" The Alliance Leader instantly questioned his life choices again.

Mu Cheng: "It's truly a bit ridiculous. They just want to guard their own home, yet this justice you keep talking about—isn't it just a massacre to them?"

"Alliance Leader, don't listen to them! Demonic cultivators commit all kinds of evil; we are merely acting on behalf of heaven!" The Fifth Elder was very stubborn.

Mu Cheng didn't want to waste time; in an instant, the Black Vine pierced through his chest, and he completely lost his breath.

A dignified Emperor Realm Peak expert was gone just like that...

"Remember, we are here to notify you. As for the demonic cultivators, we will investigate them thoroughly. If it's truly as you say... we will act ourselves. If it's not, you will all die!"

"Sister Luoluou, let's go." Mu Cheng didn't have the patience for this.

Lan Ninger suddenly added: "Only a minority of demonic cultivators harm innocent commoners."

"As for the so-called absorption of cultivators' cultivation, it's just the law of the jungle, whether it's demonic cultivators or the Yi Zheng Alliance."

"The strong are respected. There's nothing wrong with absorbing cultivation, just as the Yi Zheng Alliance kills people to steal their treasures."

"Did you hear that? It's only a small portion of demonic cultivators. Remember, we're giving you three days—no, one hour. If you don't withdraw your troops, we'll have no choice but to side with the demonic cultivators, and you know the consequences." Xiao Luolu couldn't be bothered to talk more.

"Sister Ninger, teleport us away!"

In the blink of an eye, Mu Cheng and Xiao Luolu were teleported away.

"Could it be... that I was really wrong? No, no, no. Just wait, I will definitely make you pay the price." The Alliance Leader clearly didn't want to give up.

On the other side.

"This is the City of Great Waste. All the demonic cultivators are here. As for the Demoness Liu Qianqian, she should be among them too." Lan Ninger briefly reported the situation.

"This... do we just charge straight in?" Xiao Luolu was a bit at a loss.

Mu Cheng: "Simple, as long as we show our strength, we should be able to see this Demoness."

"Mm-hmm, demonic cultivators are the weaker side, so that's indeed a possibility." Lan Ninger also thought it made sense.

No sooner said than done. After Xiao Luolu and Mu Cheng arrived, they used the same method to provoke them.

"It's an Emperor Realm Peak expert, hurry and go invite the Elder."

...Although their numbers were small, they didn't panic.

"Did you notice? There are civilians in this city." After seeing it with her own eyes, Xiao Luolu finally believed what Lan Ninger had said.

"Is it strange? Don't tell me you didn't believe Sister Ninger?" Mu Cheng asked back.

Xiao Luolu: "Fine! Pretend I didn't say anything."

A short while later, a bare-chested brawny man walked over, carrying a black gold greatsword.

From the aura he emitted, it was certain he was a genuine Emperor Realm Peak expert, just a bit weaker than the Yi Zheng Alliance Leader.

"I am Baili Kuangdao. I wonder what you two are doing? It looks like it's definitely not as simple as causing trouble."

"Mm-hmm, we want to find the Demoness to discuss something." Seeing how straightforward he was, Mu Cheng also got straight to the point.

"Good, good, good, follow me! If we have you joining us, we demonic cultivators will surely be able to hold our territory."

Baili Kuangdao led the two of them and soon arrived at a modern luxury villa.
