Immortal-Exterminating Divine Venerable

”Third Young Master, what’s wrong?”

Behind Nangong Xinghui stood more than ten powerful experts with profound auras. One of the middle-aged men, noticing his strange expression, couldn’t help but ask softly.

”It’s nothing, just a small matter. The most important thing right now is to meet the Saintess of the Taiyin Holy Palace. Everything else can wait.”

Nangong Xinghui said nonchalantly.

He had come out this time...

...originally because Ao Yuhua and Xing Hanzi, through his newly acquired concubine Ao Yushuang, had told him about a young woman on the Star God Continent. They said she had a remarkable bearing and an extraordinary constitution, possibly even a Dao Body.

This had immediately piqued Nangong Xinghui’s interest.

Although the rumors couldn’t confirm if it was truly a Dao Body or some other special constitution, for Nangong Xinghui, it was a trip worth making.

However, before he even reached the Star God Continent, he received some news.

A Saintess from the Taiyin Holy Palace was unexpectedly in the vicinity, which gave him some ideas.

As a son of the Star Emperor’s Direct Lineage, Nangong Xinghui’s background, resources, and even talent were all quite good. In comparison, however, his comprehension was severely lacking.

On the path of cultivation, his progress was far slower than his older brothers, and he couldn’t even keep up with his younger siblings. One could say he was the worst among all those in the Star Emperor’s Direct Lineage.

To this day, he was only at the Peak of Fifth Tier True God, the same as Nangong Sheng. At best, his cultivation was only slightly stronger. Such a level of strength was a complete embarrassment.

Nangong Xinghui knew this as well, so he had been constantly trying to make up for it, but the results had always been poor.

Until one day, while reading a scroll, he discovered that the renowned Human Emperor of the current age, Emperor Xuanyuan, a peerless Sword Emperor of his generation, had been just like him. His comprehension hadn’t been that strong, and even his aptitude wasn’t outstanding—merely a Low-grade Dao Body. And yet, he had soared to the heavens.

The most crucial part of this was the act of ”sleeping with ten thousand women to establish a Divine Foundation.”

This immediately made Nangong Xinghui’s eyes light up.

For years, in order to retrace Emperor Xuanyuan’s path, he had been pretending to be a profligate young master, constantly chasing women and taking concubines to cultivate with him.

There were indeed some results.

But whether it was because the quantity was too low or the quality too poor, the effects weren’t particularly obvious. Still, it was a path, so Nangong Xinghui had persisted.

This was also why a single message from Ao Yuhua was enough to make him travel to the Star God Continent.

However, compared to a woman who might not even have a Dao Body and whose cultivation was only at the Great Divine Power Realm, the Saintess of the Taiyin Holy Palace was far superior.

And with Nangong Xinghui’s status, he felt he should be qualified to become Dao companions with the Saintess of the Taiyin Holy Palace.

So, after receiving this news, he decisively gave up his plan to personally visit the Star God Continent, sending only his most trusted subordinate, Nangong Sheng, in his stead.

But he never expected that Nangong Sheng would actually die.

He was furious.

But in order to wait for the Saintess of the Taiyin Holy Palace, Nangong Xinghui still decided to stay and make contact with the Saintess first. Everything else could come later.

As for whether the killer would take this chance to escape, he wasn’t worried in the slightest.

If the power of the Star Emperor’s clan still allowed that person to escape, it would be a true joke.

Besides, Nangong Sheng was, after all, of the Nangong Family’s bloodline—an Emperor Race bloodline. Now that he was dead, a mark would inevitably appear on his killer.

With this mark, Nangong Xinghui could clearly sense his presence even from tens of millions of miles away.

He had no fear of the person escaping at all.

Not to mention, even if he did escape, a mere subordinate was nowhere near as important as the Saintess of the Taiyin Holy Palace.

And while he waited there...

Meanwhile, on the Star God Continent, within Star God Academy, everyone, from the Tutors to the Elders and even Nangong Tianling, was staring at Yang Xiao in utter shock.

’This kid is insane! He actually dared to kill someone sent by the Third Young Master. He... he’s a dead man.’

The first reaction of most people was that Yang Xiao was a dead man.

Even Nangong Tianling felt the same.

And then there was Yun’Er.

She had been at Star God Academy for nearly a year and knew a great deal. Especially since Nangong Tianling herself was from the Star Emperor’s clan, Yun’Er was even more aware of the Third Young Master’s identity and status.

To put it bluntly, the entire Star God Continent was under the jurisdiction of the Star Emperor.

If the Star Emperor were compared to a king, then the Star God Continent would be a small town in his vast kingdom.

And the Third Young Master was a Prince.

An emissary sent by a Prince had been killed in a small town within his own kingdom.

Once this Prince found out, the entire town would likely be in danger of being annihilated.

Thinking of this, Yun’Er became extremely anxious.

As soon as she came to her senses, she rushed forward and grabbed Yang Xiao. ”Young Master, we have to go! Let’s leave this place.”

Hearing this, the hearts of the many Tutors and Elders stirred.

Several of them wanted to step forward and stop them, but the thought of the imposing manner in which Yang Xiao had just killed several people in a row made them shrink back in fear.

’He killed Vice Dean Xing Hanzi, the Great Elder, and even the Third Young Master’s emissary. How could we, mere First and Second Tier True Gods, possibly be Yang Xiao’s opponent?’

’Looks like we can only watch this guy escape.’

Someone sighed internally. Their expression was bitter.

They had already imagined the Third Young Master arriving, flying into a rage, and being unable to find the killer. He would probably take his anger out on them.

But what they didn’t expect was that just when everyone thought Yang Xiao would leave, he smiled.

He patted Yun’Er’s head and said, ”Don’t be so nervous. That Third Young Master can’t do anything to me. Besides, I came here to study at Star God Academy. How could I just leave like this?”

”Young Master, you...”

Yun’Er was stunned.

She had never been one to refuse her Young Master.

But in a situation like this... for the Young Master to actually say such a thing.

’Doesn’t he know who that Third Young Master is?’

At this thought, Yun’Er was about to explain.

But Yang Xiao, as if he already knew what she was thinking, gently shook his head. ”I know what you want to say. But I still think it’s better to stay.”

When these words came out, not just Yun’Er, but everyone else thought that Yang Xiao was insane.

At the same time, these people were also delighted.

Because for them, this was definitely a good thing.

But just as Yun’Er was about to try persuading him again, Nangong Tianling spoke up.

”Yang Xiao is right. Even if you leave, you can’t escape. Since you’re already here, you should just stay put. Maybe... we really can persuade the Third Young Master. It’s not impossible.”

When she said this, Yang Xiao was rather surprised.

He looked over at her.

And he saw a trace of determination in her eyes.

He understood something in his heart.

As for the Tutors and Elders, they just looked at each other in confusion.

Puzzled, they thought to themselves, ’The murderous kid isn’t leaving, and neither is Nangong Tianling. What’s going on? Have they both gone crazy?’
