“Do you understand?” Xue Le asked with a haughty smile on her face.

Treasury Elder clenched her fist but the next moment, an intense pain emerged in her mind.

“Yes, yes, I understand.” She panicked and immediately replied. That pain was horrible. If possible, she doesn’t want to face that pain ever again.

“Mortal, give me five wisps of your soul!” Lily suddenly flew in front of her and demanded.

“No, impossible! I can’t give you the part of my soul. You will …Ahhhhhhhhh!”

The next moment, Xue Le pressed the trigger with her true essence and that intense pain emerged in her brain once again.

A few minutes later,

Treasury Elder got no choice but to give five strands of her soul to Lily. Taking those souls, Lily stared at her and said “Mortal, I don’t have any reasons to control you. I am going to devour these strands to nourish my soul.”

“And, let me give you a piece of advice as to the creator of that torture technique. The more she uses it on you, the greater pain will be. That means if you don’t obey her commands, she will torture you for all your life.”

Hearing her words, Treasury Elder’s eyes widened. She couldn’t believe it but when she thought of the pain, she realized this time, it was much more painful than before.

Those words brought a smile to Xue Le’s face. If it was possible, then her plan will be even smoother. She looked at Treasury Elder and said “Now, I have a task for you. Your task is to leave for the Western Desert, meet my brother there in miserable condition, and finally return with him.”

“As soon as he returns back, I am sure he will try to punish me. Naturally, I won’t be able to escape his punishment. So, I want you to knock him conscious, seal his strength and call me.”

“Of course, you can choose to betray me but…” No longer continuing, she looked at Lily.

Lily sighed and answered while looking at Treasury Elder.

“If you choose to betray her, then she will explode your consciousness and kill you.”

“Yao, you are a not good woman. In fact, you would have killed my lover if he wasn’t a genius. So, let me make this clear to you. Your life or task! Choose it carefully.”

Saying so, she went to Miao and installed the same technique on her as well. Then, she looked at Yao and said “Now, you are also responsible for her. If you do something wrong, she will die as well.”

Yao clenched her fists with frustration. At this moment, she had no choice at all. Xue Le opened those chains and removed those talismans. Yao stood there silently.

“What? You still have something to do here.” Xue Le stared at Yao and asked.

Yao understood the situation and left. Miao also hurriedly followed her.

“I thought you would make her kneel and treat her as a slave for a moment to extinguish your anger,” Lily spoke.

Xue Le shook her head and said “I am angry but I will take out this anger by torturing that bastard sect master. He dares to put my Chen’s life at the risk. I will settle a score with him after I enslave my brother.”

“Hahaha! Girl, I finally understood why I reincarnated as this bird. Why did I reincarnate close to you? You are just like me. Cruel, ruthless, and most importantly loyal. But girl, when you are loyal to a man, he might not be loyal to you.”

“Do you really want to follow this path? With your cruel and ruthless mind, you can use your body to conquer hundreds of men, make them your slave, and fight for the position of Great Emperor.”

“Do you know what Great Emperor is? It is the greatest honor one could ever achieve. Not just honor, but also resources and success, everything will be at your fingertips.”

Hearing her words, Xue Le shook her head and said “Honor, resources, success, it doesn’t even compare to the strand of his hair. These things are meaningless to me.”

Lily frowned for a moment and asked “Girl, you and he are only together for a few days. Why are you so obsessed with him?”

Suddenly, Lily’s eyes turned green and the next moment, she appeared in front of her and scanned her. After a while, she returned back and said “I finally understand. Well, it doesn’t matter. You have already used that bet. Now, he can’t marry anyone else and will stay loyal to you.”

“You are wrong, Lily. I am not going to tell him that I awakened my bloodline within three years. I am going to wait. If he does become the strongest person in just three years, then I will lose the bet regardless of the awakening of my bloodline.” Xue Le shook her head and answered.

“You! Forget it. Your mind is too shrewd. I don’t want to pry over it. Anyway, what’s your next plan? Your lover has already left to gain strength. Are you going back to the family?” Lily asked after she discovered that she can’t read Xue Le.

“Of course, but there is something that I want to do first. Lily, you need a lot of souls to heal yourself, right?” Xue Le asked.

“Yes, a lot of souls. If not for your recent breakthrough, I wouldn’t have awakened at all. But, the amount of soul power that you leak is too low for me. Do you have a way to get more souls?” Lily asked as she felt a dangerous aura from Xue Le.

Xue Le smiled coldly and said, “Yes, there is a mansion that I want to slaughter tonight.”

……..

At this moment, Fu Chen who was completely unaware of Xue Le’s action had already left the sect. He passed through the gates of Yellow Star City and finally entered the Fire King Region.

But, when he reached the forest, he stopped and took out the scroll.

[Would you like to comprehend Energy Concealing Technique?]

[Yes] [No]

Pressing yes, all the information about Energy Concealing Technique appeared in his mind. But, as soon as he got all the information, he noticed one powerful defect.

It wasn’t actually Energy Concealing Technique. It was actually Energy Sealing Technique. Once it is used, it will indeed conceal the energy by sealing the energy.

It seemed normal at first but when you think about it, this kind of information was only written at the end of the scroll. And, the method of unsealing the energy also takes some time.

That means if he is in danger and wants to unseal, he would have to fight and survive without energy for a while. Fortunately, he had something on his trick or maybe the sect master also thought of this.

Although Energy Concealing Technique could seal his spiritual qi, it won’t seal his Thunder Aura. That means he can still be like a body cultivator. So, in the end, he still concealed his energy.

After concealing his energy, the spiritual pressure/ normal aura also disappeared. Now, nobody can sense him using their Spiritual Sense. Finally, he stepped on Storm Steps and dashed towards the forest.

He didn’t learn Thousand Faces Transformation Technique. Currently, he was at the place where humans usually train. If he takes the form of any monster beast, he will be hunted down.

Running on Storm Steps, he quickly arrived at the corner of the Fire King Region. The massive forest covered the entire five regions but only a certain part of it was part of one region.

Currently, he was standing in the middle of the forest and the starting point of the Fire King Region. Now, he didn’t go straight but rather took the detour. Because there would be a lot of fire monsters in the front.

His goal was to go behind Fire King Region, not in the middle. After running for six hours, he discovered not only his spiritual qi was out but his stamina was also depleted.

But, now comes the problem. The reason why he was successful at avoiding the monsters was that he was running away from them before they could sense him.

Although he had concealed his energy, they could still feel his movement if he is slow. So, he hurriedly climbed on the tree and started restoring his spiritual qi and stamina.

When he looked down, he saw a monster beast. It was a giant red wolf. With the fur tough like iron and claws sharper than the swords, it can easily kill him. Fortunately, his energy was completely sealed.

Or, even the slightest leak of energy could be sensed by it. After he recovered his Spiritual Qi, he noticed that the wolf hasn’t left rather it was sleeping on the bottom of the tree.

This wolf was a Low Realm Rank Seven Monster Beast. It was equal to Foundation Establishment Seventh Stage. He was barely in the sixth stage. Although his strength was enough, he wouldn’t be able to fight it without exposing himself.

Suddenly, he felt like someone pushed him.

Thud!

His face slammed on the ground and the next opened, he stood up and shouted while looking at the tree.

“Which bastard did that? Show yourself!”
