Chapter 1608: Have You Recently... Slain a Supreme? (First Update)

At this moment, the moon halo behind Yue Ming’s head was spinning, and her voice was clear like a spring.

“Whether it is the Dynasty Alliance or the Cultivation Alliance, the term for an Inspector is a thousand years, and each person has only one Angel Envoy quota. Those who obtain this qualification…”

Her eyes moved slightly, “can directly enter the Star Gate, enter the Starry Battlefield for training and combat, and be directly granted important military positions, avoiding the hardships of bottom-level training.”

Zhou Qing’s pupils suddenly shrank, immediately looking at the jade tablet in the other party’s hand—this might be the key to fulfilling Master Xuanqing’s last wish!

If it wasn’t for obtaining Master Xuanqing’s Array Dao inheritance back then, he would have had no chance of achieving the current fourth-level Array Master status.

And the dying entrusted word from that elder was to convey to Grand General Zhongli Bo the message of “not a deserter, truly ambushed.”

Coincidentally, his current Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown and the matching Heart Method “Yin Yang Skills” were also left by this Grand General Zhongli Bo.

However, to enter the Starry Battlefield, only the Star Gate can do it, ordinary people can’t even find the place.

Previously trapped in the void, he once brushed past a broken Star Gate—the mottled big characters [Star Gate-Mountain Camp] are still vividly remembered.

Unfortunately, at that time, it couldn’t be stored in the Storage Bag, and he could only watch it drift deeper into the void.

“Elder, this…” Zhou Qing’s voice tightened somewhat.

“Don’t rush to rejoice.” Yue Ming’s cold voice pulled him back to reality, “The Angel Envoy quota is only one in a thousand years, concerning our vital interests.”

Her eyes flowed, as if in memories: “Over the years, I have seen too many so-called brilliant talents, but those who can truly survive to the end… are less than one in ten.”

Suddenly she stared at Zhou Qing: “If I haven’t misunderstood, one of the Inscription-level Divine Techniques you displayed is the ‘Daluo Demon Sealing Seal’ right?”

Zhou Qing’s face changed slightly, but he still honestly said: “Exactly.”

“Indeed…” Yue Ming’s lips curled into a meaningful smile, “It was granted by Inspector Du to a talented one with Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown.”

“He intended to select him as his Angel Envoy, but the result was that the opponent couldn’t even survive the Supreme Tribulation and fell.”

Her eyes were like electricity, “I didn’t expect it to end up in your hands.”

Zhou Qing’s heart was shaken, never expecting that this Divine Technique had such a background.

“Telling you this is to make you understand…” Yue Ming lightly waved her robe, “To become my Angel Envoy, you must first prove your strength—especially in your current situation.”

She lightly tapped with her fingertip, and the jade tablet floated in front of Zhou Qing:

“The Angel Envoy I choose, even if not comparable to others, must be a fierce character who has fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.”

Yue Ming’s red lips slightly opened, her voice like cold spring, “‘This Moon Shines in Ten Directions Tablet’ can record the number of Supreme Realm cultivators you personally killed—don’t even think about faking it, it can discern truth from false.”

“Only those who can truly fight across levels deserve the name of Angel Envoy.”

Zhou Qing looked at the jade tablet floating in front of him, feeling his heart pounding.

“I recently have some matters, need to return to the Cultivation Alliance for reporting, the return date is uncertain.”

“When you light up ten stars on it, and I return to the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty…”

Her gaze was like a knife, staring tightly at Zhou Qing, “If you’re still alive, you will be my Angel Envoy.”

Zhou Qing didn’t immediately take it but secretly identified it with [Daily Reflection] to confirm no anomalies before extending his hand to take it into his palm.

Beside him, Yu Yan couldn’t help but frown.

Letting a Spirit Severing Realm cultivator kill ten Supremes?

This is clearly sending someone to their death!

Fighting among peers already poses the risk of falling, and since strength is usually similar, it mostly ends with restraint, let alone fighting across levels?

Moreover, which Supreme Realm is not a veteran monster who has gone through thousands of battles?

But at this moment, the jade tablet in Zhou Qing’s hand suddenly glowed with cold moonlight.

Buzz—

The first star suddenly lit up, followed by the second and third…

In the flow of silver brilliance, yet three stars lit up in a row!

Yu Yan’s mouth slightly opened, even Yue Ming rarely showed an astonished expression.

“Recently… have you slain a Supreme?” Yue Ming’s cold voice finally revealed a ripple.

Zhou Qing stared at the jade tablet continuously emitting moonlight, honestly replied: “Yes!”

Wouldn’t this count?

That Liu Family old ancestor got injured after dueling with the Shen Family old ancestor; wouldn’t this count as helping?

It shouldn’t count, or this thing wouldn’t have recorded it, and both incidents happened five years ago.

“Interesting, truly interesting,” Yue Ming suddenly laughed, “The remaining seven, I hope when I return…”

She paused for a moment, her figure instantly disappearing, leaving only lingering echoes, “I can still see you alive.”

Zhou Qing lowered his eyes to look at the item in his palm and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Speaking of which, you haven’t even asked if I’m willing to be your Angel Envoy?

“Zhou, did you kill a Supreme Realm on your own?” Yu Yan struggled to conceal her shock, quickly stepping forward to ask.

In Zhou Qing’s arms, little Yaoyao had already reached out her small hand, curious to touch the starry-flowing jade tablet.

Zhou Qing casually handed the jade tablet to her to play with, calmly said, “It’s nothing much, just Liu Family old ancestor Liu Xuancang, Liu Family Head Liu Hanchuan, and Xiao Family old ancestor Xiao Juechen!”

Yu Yan: “…”

Subsequently, after Zhou Qing’s explanation, Yu Yan finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

Yet she still found it hard to believe—the person before her could independently slaughter three Supreme powerhouses, including a late-stage Supreme ancestor!

However, she wisely did not ask further details, turning her gaze instead to the jade tablet being played with by Yaoyao.

She sighed lightly: “The position of Angel Envoy… a chance so many brilliant talents dream of, ended up in your hands like this.”

Zhou Qing was somewhat curious: “By the way, have there been others besides me who obtained this quota in recent years?”

Yu Yan pondered for a moment: “There are indeed rumors of one, but the truth is unknown.”

“Oh? Who might that be?” Zhou Qing became interested.

“It’s said to be some princess of the Imperial Family, selected by the Dynasty Alliance’s Inspector to become an Angel Envoy, but exactly who remains unknown.” Yu Yan shook her head.

Zhou Qing nodded thoughtfully and said, “I just heard from the Yue Ming Inspector, they seem to rotate?”

“Yes, every thousand years.” Yu Yan explained, “Their duty is just to maintain the basic order of the Cultivation Country.”

This reminded Zhou Qing of the Holy Martial Dynasty affair—he as a sect cultivator vanquished the Dynasty there, yet no emissary came forth to suppress him.

Seemingly perceiving his confusion, Yu Yan continued, “The Dynasty Alliance and Cultivator Alliance are both competitors and collaborators. They will only intervene when there is a major crisis evident on the surface.”

“The Dynasty Alliance governs mundane cities, the Cultivator Alliance represents various sects. Some things, turning a blind eye is actually conducive to development.”

“Only when conflicts become irreconcilable, or threaten mass destruction, will they truly step in.”

Zhou Qing understood: “No wonder the Celestial Fate Sacred Dynasty has more than thirty provinces, yet both parties only sent three Inspectors. In this view, they really can’t oversee everything.”

Yu Yan gently tucked the green silk by her temple, smiling: “This logic is actually no different from sects and noble families.”

“Although rules clearly prohibit wanton killing of innocents, if there are no witnesses and it doesn’t cause too much of a stir, naturally no one pursues it.”

“But once it gets tumultuous and widespread, members from both alliances will surely appear to mediate.”
