One thing that depressed Huwang Xiao was the fact that only one thumb-sized stream of gray energy would flow out from the Divine World no matter how hard he pushed the four divine fires.
That was to say, in every breath’s time, only a single stream would flow out. Not to mention the speed with which his three supreme godheads were swallowing up that energy. In every breath, each of his godheads could devour one hundred streams of gray energy, and having three supreme godheads tripled the amount to three hundred streams.
Therefore, one little stream of energy every other breath wasn't enough to be divided between his three supreme godheads ah.
Although the lightning dragon spiritual vein’s energy was of lower quality, it could ‘feed’ all three of Huwang Xiao’s godheads until they were full each time.
He then made a quick estimation in his head. If he cultivated with this shimmering gray energy, there was a very high chance he could break through to Fifth Order Highgod Realm in a short two to three years.
This speed may be unprecedented to others, but it was a little too slow for Huwang Xiao. After all, there were less than ten years until the Alchemist Grandmaster Union competition.
Merely relying on this shimmering gray energy wasn't sufficient for him to break through to Seventh Order Highgod Realm within ten years.
‘Looks like I still need to make a trip to the City of Devils and challenge the Hellion Tower.’ Huwang Xiao thought to himself.
Hence, at night, Huwang Xiao would use the four divine fires to absorb the shimmering gray energy, while during the day he would spend time with his family and Shi Xiaofei.
The days quickly passed by, and Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei’s wedding day arrived.
After two months of rebuilding, the Huwang Clan Manor had restored its previous magnificence. In fact, the whole residence was even grander, filled with a lively, festive air.
Two month prior, due to the Yelu and Beitang Families releasing word that they were going to paint Martial Spirit World red with blood, other than Huwang Xiao’s Master Feng Yang, his Eldest Senior Apprentice-brother Liu Yun, Third Apprentice-sister Qi Wen, and a few others, no one else dared to show up at his wedding.
However, this time around, cultivators from the four galaxies could be seen all around, akin to an ocean of people. They were enough to fill the whole Martial Spirit World. The four galaxies’ big and small Patriarchs, Ancestors, Grand Elders, and Elders all arrived in Martial Spirit World bearing gifts.
The Huwang Clan Manor was even more packed with guests, extremely lively.
Such a grand occasion had never occurred in the four galaxies for millions of years.
Gifts were piled several mountains high, lining next to each other.
In fact, the Huwang Clan Manor servants had reserved a large empty square to place these gifts, but as time passed they realized that the space was far from enough ah.
After going through a string of marriage rituals which included the ceremonial bows and tea ceremony, Huwang Min and the others happily sent Shi Xiaofei to the bridal chamber, while Huwang Xiao was left to accompany the toasting guests at the banquet.
Naturally, those Ancestors, Patriarchs, Grand Elders, and Elders were all flustered when toasting to Huwang Xiao, bowing nervously while uttering cautious words of flattery as if Huwang Xiao would be upset if they were half a step too slow.
Darkness gradually pulled a veil over the sky, and the guests from the four galaxies bid their farewells and left.
After everyone left, Huwang Xiao made his way to a decorated yard, stopping in front of the bridal chamber. His palms pushed open the doors in front of him and stepped inside where Shi Xiaofei had long been waiting, sitting at the edge of the bridal bed made from ten thousand years old elm wood. Although the two people were at different ends of the room, Huwang Xiao could hear Shi Xiaofei’s loud heartbeat.
He slowly approached Shi Xiaofei, who was fully clad in a red wedding dress, and took a seat in front of her, causing her heartbeat to audibly quicken.
Huwang Xiao removed the red scarf covering her head, revealing Shi Xiaofei’s alluring face, slightly red from shyness.
Today, Shi Xiaofei was specially dressed up, enhancing her alluring beauty to another degree, which caused all other living beings to pale in comparison.
Huwang Xiao’s feelings rose to his chest, softly calling her name: “Xiaofei.”
“En,” Shi Xiaofei answered, barely louder than a mosquito. As if what was about to happen next flickered in her mind, her delicate face turned red like an apple.
Huwang Xiao inched closer, placing his lips close to her ears, whispering, “Tonight, you’re mine….”
Ch.907
A shiver ran down Shi Xiaofei’s petite body hearing his low whisper, the shyness of a girl was fully displayed on her delicate face. Her ears were red down to her earlobes.
At this time, Huwang Xiao’s arm reached out, and before Shi Xiaofei knew it she was already leaning against his firm chest. Even through the layers of her wedding dress, Huwang Xiao could feel Shi Xiaofei’s rising body temperature.
Aroused, his hands began to roam around.
Shi Xiaofei’s body was soft and supple, completely leaning into Huwang Xiao as his hands teased her as he liked. However, as time passed, the pair of masculine hands lit a fire in her body everywhere they touched, causing her breathing to gradually grow heavy.
The faint scent of Shi Xiaofei’s body drilled into Huwang Xiao’s nose.
His head lowered, after which his lips met a pair of dainty cherry red lips, sending a shiver down Shi Xiaofei’s body.
They became engrossed as their kissing deepened, as if they had blended into the heaven and earth, forgetting all else. Slowly, not knowing who or when, their clothes were peeled off and piled at their feet, leaving skin against skin.
Huwang Xiao’s gaze traced the white skin that was like translucent jade yet had a visible pinkish undertone. Her mesmerizing curves, high breasts and rounded behind, spurred the heat from Huwang Xiao’s groin.
As for Shi Xiaofei, her sight was filled with Huwang Xiao’s chiseled muscles, especially the enormous horizontal pillar, her face was indescribably red.
A short while later, soft moans and grunts sounded from the bridal chamber and primal desire filled the room, the yard.
Three days and three nights later, Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei emerged from the bridal chamber.
When they entered the hall and saw everyone there with bloodshot eyes, Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei couldn’t help turning red.
His younger brother Huwang Xiaohai discreetly gave Huwang Xiao a thumbs up.
Huwang Xiao rolled his eyes and pretended not to see.
Whereas Su Yan and Huwang Min quickly walked up to Shi Xiaofei, talking in low whispers. Shi Xiaofei lowered her head, her face all read.
In the blink of an eye, a month went by.
In this one month, Huwang Xiao’s days were spent in cultivation, stimulating the four divine fires and absorbing the shimmering gray energy, while his nights were spent tumbling between the sheets with Shi Xiaofei. In between, he would bring Shi Xiaofei and his family on little trips around Martial Spirit World.
Time trickled by and another month passed.
After a month of absorbing the shimmering gray energy, Huwang Xiao’s cultivation rose significantly.
Shi Xiaofei was still a virgin on their wedding night, adding her Pure Luminance Enlightened Buddha Physique. After their coupling, Huwang Xiao obtained a part of her yin essence, hence his cultivation speed was even faster. This improvement was even more obvious looking at Shi Xiaofei’s cultivation.
Two months after his wedding, before the Huwang Family’s and Shi Xiaofei’s reluctant gazes, Huwang Xiao left the Martial Spirit World for the City of Devils.
Before leaving, he listed a number of things that Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi, Ancestor Bifang, and the other needed to pay attention to.
A day later, he had left the territory of the four
galaxies.
‘According to speed of Qiu Baifei’s group, they should now be arriving at the Fortune Gate’s headquarters in the Everlasting Galaxy.’ On the way, Huwang Xiao sneered as he thought to himself.
As predicted, not long after he left the four galaxies, Qiu Baifei’s group arrived at the Everlasting Galaxy.
The Fortune Gate Chief, Wang Yu, personally welcomed them.
No doubt, if this was any other time, with the identities of Qiu Baifei’s group members, they would never be qualified to meet the Fortune Gate’s Chief. However, when Wang Yu heard that Qiu Baifei’s group came from the Black Tortoise, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon Galaxies, and most of all that they had information related to Huwang Xiao, Wang Yu decided to ‘welcome’ this group of people personally.
“You’re saying Huwang Xiao killed the Seventh Order Highgod Realm Yelu Chufei and Beitang Yiyang?!” Hearing Qiu Baifei’s report, Wang Yu’s expression stiffened due to shock for the briefest moment, his disbelief was obvious.
“Yes, Chief Wang.” Qiu Baifei respectfully replied, “This matter is absolutely true, this news has spread throughout the four galaxies. None of us expected Huwang Xiao to have concealed his strength so deeply, reaching this extent.”
Wang Yu’s expression darkened visibly.
Huwang Xiao actually had such strength? Then the one who killed their sect’s Elder Wang Zhong wasn't someone else, but Huwang Xiao?!
At that thought, Wang Yu’s expression grew even more sullen.
His Fortune Gate’s disciples had always maintained a strict line, guarding the border of the Eternal Galaxy and its neighboring galaxies. It was impossible for Huwang Xiao to leave without them knowing, but now, not only had Huwang Xiao returned to the Black Tortoise Galaxy, he had also exterminated more than half of the Yelu Family’s masters and reined in just as many Beitang Family cultivators.
‘Those groups of useless trash!’ A chilling light flickered in Wang Yu’s eyes.
“Chief Wang, that Huwang Xiao is arrogant and overbearing in nature, not to mention lawless and reckless. He actually fantasized about conquering the four galaxies, that is why we were forced to leave our native land, hoping to be of service to the Fortune Gate.” A White Tiger Galaxy Third Order Highgod Realm family ancestor cautiously spoke.
Wang Yu finally revealed a smile, “For you to be willing to place your hopes on our Fortune Gate, submitting to us, we naturally welcome everyone. Rest assured, we will definitely capture Huwang Xiao and torture him to death!”
Although the strength of Qiu Baifei’s group didn't enter Wang Yu’s eyes, they were still Highgod Realm masters. Even a long heritage hegemon force like their Fortune Gate would need to spend a large amount of resources to nurture a Highgod Realm master.
Now, there were close to a thousand Highgod Realm masters willing to submit to them, Wang Yu was naturally happy.
With this, the Fortune Gate’s power would rise by another level.
The kneeling Highgod Realm masters from the four galaxies rose to their feet, thanking Chief Wang. Subsequently, Wang Yu had one of the Fortune Gate’s Grand Elders arrange cultivation grounds for Qiu Baifei’s group.
However, just as he planned to send someone to capture Huwang Xiao, a disciple ran inside reporting that Huwang Xiao had already left the Black Tortoise Galaxy and was heading to the City of Devils.
Of course, this news was deliberately released by Huwang Xiao.
After Wang Yu heard this report, he sneered, “Huwang Xiao ah Huwang Xiao, since it’s like that I’ll have my Fortune Gate Grand Elders prepare to welcome you at the gates of the City of Devils.”
Thus, Wang Yu took out his communication talisman to contact the Fortune Gate’s Branch Grand Elders located in the City of Devils, having them prepare well to ‘welcome’ Huwang Xiao.
Following that, Wang Yu gathered a group of thirty people consisting of Seventh Order, Eighth Order, and Ninth Order Highgod Realm masters, sending them to Martial Spirit World with the absolute order of capturing all the Huwang Clan Manor’s people alive, especially Huwang Xiao’ woman, Shi Xiaofei!
Watching those thirty people leave, Wang Yu let out a hearty laughter, “Huwang Xiao, you’ll reunite with your family and woman very soon in the City of Devils.”
Due to the distance between the Black Tortoise Galaxy and City of Devils, even if Huwang Xiao used Greater Space Teleportation consecutively in between transmission arrays, it still took him three months before reaching his destination.
In those three months, he continued absorbing the gray energy to cultivate as he traveled, narrowing his cultivation to peak late-Fourth Order Highgod Realm.
According to his estimation, he would be able to step into peak late-Fourth Order Highgod Realm in two months if he continued at this rate.
Looking at the enormous city that stood in the middle of space, the tall city walls and devil qi roiling above the City of Devils, Huwang Xiao subconsciously accelerated.
A short while later, he was standing in front of the city gates.
Ch.908
However, before entering the City of Devils, Huwang Xiao’s divine sense swept around and immediately discovered a large number of hidden Fortune Gate disciples. Among them was an imposing old man exuding a suffocating pressure, definitely an Eighth Order Highgod Realm master or above.
This old man was most likely the Grand Elder responsible for the Fortune Gate Branch in the City of Devils.
Huwang Xiao sneered.
He deliberately released news of his departure to the City of Devils, certain that the Fortune Gate would send their people to block his path. But he wasn't perturbed by this.
Before he appeared in front of the city gates, he had already changed his physical appearance. Forget these Fortune Gate disciples, even if Fang Chu was standing in front of him, he still wouldn't be able to recognize him.
After paying the fee of one saint grade spirit stone, Huwang Xiao swaggered into the City of Devils.
He even wickedly walked past in front of several Fortune Gate disciples, but their gazes were fixed on a female cultivator entering the city behind Huwang Xiao.
It has to be said that the female cultivator was quite pretty, especially the two peaks on her chest, big and jiggling as she walked.
After smoothly entering the City of Devils, Huwang Xiao followed the flow of the crowd, his eyes surveying the streets and shops around him. All of those shops mainly sold items related to the devil race, but there were a few shops that offered medicinal herbs and pills suitable for human cultivators.
He strolled around, but did not make any purchases even though those herbs and pills weren't bad. After making some inquiries about the Hellion Tower, Huwang Xiao headed there straight away.
There was a rule in City of Devils that prohibited flying in the city's airspace and Greater Space Teleportation for the Highgod Realm cultivators. Hence, it would take Huwang Xiao three to four days to reach the Hellion Tower.
He was in no hurry since he was already in the City of Devils. A delay of three to four days wasn’t an issue, it could be considered as enjoying sceneries of a new place. Unless absolutely necessary, Huwang Xiao preferred not to violate the City of Devils’ rules.
According to the Ascending Moon Old Man, this particular ancient devil race clan’s power wasn't any weaker than the Wangu Clan. If possible, he wished to avoid having any conflict with them.
As he proceed along, the sky gradually turned dark.
Huwang Xiao took a look at the sky, then found a dilapidated yard a short while later, planning to stay the night there and continuing on his way tomorrow.
After entering the dilapidated yard, Huwang Xiao cleaned up a corner of the room with a light wave of his hand and sat in a meditative position on the floor. He then swallowed an Extraordinary Divine Pellet and started doing breathing exercises.
In the blink of an eye, it was already deep into the night.
Silvery moonlight shone down, casting a sof
t glow over the yard.
Huwang Xiao was resting in a meditative posture when he heard the sound of whistling air some distance from the yard he was in.
He opened his eyes and saw the descending figure of a middle-aged man. His bloodstained robe was clear under the moonlight, wobbling unsteadily as his feet touched the ground, his breathing chaotic. Huwang Xiao noticed that this person’s godhead was forcefully damaged by an overpowering force.
When the middle-aged man noticed Huwang Xiao in the yard, his eyes brightened and made an effort to approach him. However, before he could say a word, a sharp sword light slashed through the void, cutting across the middle-aged man’s neck.
The middle-aged man stiffened where he was, the eyes on his falling head widened.
After the sword light vanished, a young man clad in a brocade robe appeared in the yard, walking straight to the middle-aged man’s body with a cold sneer on his face. His palm suddenly struck out, completely shattering the middle-aged man’s godhead, destroying his soul in the process. When all of this was done, the young man removed the middle-aged man’s spatial ring, taking out a black bead.
The instant this black bead emerged, the surrounding spiritual energy vigorously rippled.
The devil qi intensified, roiling throughout the yard.
However, seemingly restricted by the black bead, this soaring devil qi did not spread out from the yard.
The brocade-robed young man looked at the black bead in his hand with delight in his eyes. In the next second, he let out an insuppressible laugh before putting the black bead away into his own spatial ring. Only then did he focus on Huwang Xiao.
“Late-Fourth Order Highgod Realm.” The young man determined his cultivation with a single glance. He didn’t interrogate Huwang Xiao, merely looked coldly at him, throwing a question, “Runt, are you going to kill yourself or should I do it?”
