Chapter 1704: Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the follower and lackey of the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, Xu Jing, he knew what happened to Xu Jing from the beginning until the end.

Apart from Xu Jing, only he alone knew in the Rising Sky Mansion that Xu Jing had cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique.

He had thought he would lose his backer since the Young Mansion Master had died, he did not expect things would take such a turn.

The Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion had confirmed the Young Mansion did not die. Then, the ancient Vice Mansion Master mentioned the Devouring Dark Devil Technique and the Soul Congregation technique. Based on that, he was even more certain his Young Mansion Master’s life was saved because he cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique!

Naturally, he did not dare to reveal all this regardless if his Young Mansion Master was alive or not. This was because he had sworn on the lightning penalty oath to keep this a secret.

“Lord Mansion Master, there’s something I must tell you.”

The Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion, Xu Cen, looked at the Xu Yi Cheng, the Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, solemnly as he said, “During the Rising Sky Ranking Battle, Young Mansion Master revealed himself as a Devil Cultivator! I think the Young Mansion Master must have obtained a Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method that greatly increased his strength in the past year that caused him to fall into the Devil Dao!”

Xu Cen had pieced everything together when he thought about the strength Xu Jing had shown during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle and when he heard the ancient Vice Mansion Master’s words.

As it turned out, the fortuitous encounter his Young Mansion Master, Xu Jing, had was obtaining a Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method.

When he remembered that Xu Jing only took a year to progress from the Early Refined Saint Stage to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, he shuddered internally. “The Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method he cultivated is too heaven-defying!”

When Xu Cen finished speaking, apart from the people who returned from the Rising Sky Ranking Battle with him, the others, including Xu Yi Cheng, were dumbfounded.

Xu Yi Cheng was the first one to regain his senses. He looked at Xu Cen as he said in his deep voice, “Grand Elder, tell me everything that happened during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle, including how your grandchild, Xu Can, and the other two died… Most importantly, tell me about my son.”

Xu Yi Cheng was quite upset that he was unaware of his son becoming a Devil Cultivator.

“Yes, Lord Mansion Master.” Faced with Xu Yi Cheng, Xu Cen did not dare to dally. He began to recount everything that had happened during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle.

When they learned that one of their Rising Sky Mansion’s disciples died in the hands of Zhong Gu, a few high-ranking officials were furious. “Zhong Gu’s really bold! How dare he kill a disciple from the Rising Sky Mansion! Lord Mansion Master, the Rising Sky Mansion must not let Zhong Gu go!” They said indignantly.

“There’s no need for that.” Xu Cen shook his head. Everyone’s eyes, including Xu Yi Cheng, shifted to Xu Cen immediately. He quickly said, “The Young Mansion Master killed Zhong Gu soon after.”

The few high-ranking officials of Rising Sky Mansion’s anger subsided after they heard this.

Usually, they would be praising the Young Mansion Master, Xu Jing, at this time. However, they remained silent when they thought of Xu Jing’s current situation.

“Continue speaking,” Xu Yi Cheng urged.

Following that, Xu Cen brought up Li Feng and told him how Li Feng had killed another disciple of the Rising Sky Mansion before killing his grandson, Xu Can.

At this point, Xu Cen’s expression turned grim. No matter what, Xu Can was his grandson! The anger in his heart surged up, and he could not calm down for a period of time.

“Li Feng? A sectless cultivator?”

The Rising Sky Mansion’s high-ranking officials, including Xu Yi Cheng, frowned after they heard this. “I’ve never heard of a sectless cultivator called Li Feng in the Rising Sky Mansion’s district prior to this… He even managed to kill Xu Can who was at the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage, he’s definitely not weaker than Zhong Gu!”

“Humph! That Li Feng dares to kill one of our Rising Sky Mansion’s people, he’s really seeking death!”

“Don’t worry… Young Mansion Master probably killed Li Feng as well.”

“Yes, it’s useless to be angry at a dead person.”

After listening to the words of the high-ranking officials of the Rising Sky Mansion, the corner of the mouths of the group of people who had returned from Nimble Valley, including Xu Cen, began to twitch.

“Hm?” As the Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, Xu Yi Cheng, was naturally more perceptive than the others. Soon after, he noticed the peculiar expressions on Xu Cen and the others’ faces. His heart skipped a beat. “Don’t tell me Jing’er’s injuries have something to do with Li Feng?”

“Yes.” Xu Cen nodded with a bitter smile before he continued to recount what had happened as Xu Yi Cheng looked on with cold eyes.

He even told them about how the Young Mansion Master, Xu Jing, had killed the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi even though both of them had joined forces.

“What?! Young Mansion Master killed the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time?” The high-ranking officials were in an uproar when they heard this.

The Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi’s cultivation base was at the Mastery Refined Saint Stage, but their Young Mansion Master managed to kill them even after they had joined forces?

They felt this was incredible! Even Xu Yi Cheng was surprised, he did not expect his son would become so strong in just the span of a year.

“Young Mansion Master is a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!” When Xu Cen said this, it stunned Xu Yi Cheng and all the high-ranking officials of Rising Sky Mansion.

In just a year, he had progressed from the Early Refined Saint Stage to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage?

What a terrifying improvement!

“Fortunately, Jing’er is still alive…” Currently, Xu Yi Cheng was not the only one who was happy. The high-ranking officials were happy as well. Even Xu Cen who had lost someone dear to him felt as though he had regained something.

Moreover, since Xu Jing did not die, it meant that he would not be punished.

As Xu Cen continued to recount what had happened, the entire place fell silent again.

That sectless cultivator, Li Feng, whom they had never heard of was also at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage. Moreover, he had not even reached the age of forty. Such innate talent was rarely present in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, and yet, it had appeared in their Rising Sky Mansion’s district.

“That Li Feng really doesn’t know what’s good for him!” After learning that Li Feng had rejected Xu Cen’s invitation, the group of Rising Sky Mansion’s high ranking officials began to curse at him.

However, when they learned Li Feng did not join the Sky Hurdle Mansion nor the Raging Wave Mansion, they felt a little better.

“Since we can’t use Li Feng, we can only kill him!” Xu Yi Cheng said in his deep voice as his eyes gleamed coldly. “He killed two of my Rising Sky Mansion’s disciples and severely injured my son… I won’t feel at ease unless he’s dead!”

After that, Xu Yi Cheng ordered Xu Cen to draw a portrait of Li Feng and ordered the Rising Sky Mansion’s people to search for him and kill him. However, it did not even cross his mind that Li Feng was just a fake name, and his appearance was just a disguise. It was uncertain if that face would even appear again in the future.

Therefore, no matter how the people from the Rising Sky Mansion searched, it was destined they would not be able to find Li Feng at all.

Suddenly, the ancient Vice Mansion Master seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Xu Yi Cheng and asked, “Lord Mansion Master, now that the Young Mansion Master’s severely injured to the point where he’s almost dead, and it would take him at most three years to recover… How should we deal with the matter of the marriage with the Eldest Young Miss of Greenwave Han Mansion that’s set to happen a month later? Should we send them a note?” At this moment, the others looked at Xu Yi Cheng as well. All of them knew about this matter.

“The marriage will, naturally, have to be delayed since my son is so badly injured… There’s no need to send a note to a mere fifth-rate force! Moreover, it won’t take long before the news of my son being killed spread in the Rising Sky Mansion’s district and to the Greenwave Han Mansion. At that time, they’ll naturally know why we didn’t come to pick the bride up,” Xu Yi Cheng said arrogantly.

As the leader of a fourth-rate force like the Rising Sky Mansion, he really looked down on fifth-rate forces like the Greenwave Han Mansion.

“That’s true. At that time, even the guests we’ve invited would assume the wedding’s canceled when they hear the news about the Young Mansion Master’s demise.” Xu Cen nodded.

“Everyone present must swear on the lightning penalty oath to not spread the news of the Young Mansion Master’s survival. Let everyone think he has died!” Xu Yi Cheng said in a deep voice as his cold eyes swept past everyone.

Nobody was surprised by Xu Yi Cheng’s decision. Currently, the Young Mansion Master had undoubtedly cultivated a Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method that saved his life. If news spread that he was still alive, it was inevitable for someone to piece the puzzle together that he had cultivated a Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method.

At that time, Xu Jing would definitely become everyone’s target!

A Top Devil Dao Cultivation Method was something that even those quasi third-rated forces would be interested in.

Today was definitely a memorable day in the Rising Sky Mansion. At this moment, deafening sounds of thunder resounded in the sky. It was so loud that those who had not entered the Saint Stage were almost deafened. Some were so severely injured that blood began to leak out of their seven orifices.

After all, so many people had sworn on the lightning penalty oath at once. It was extremely terrifying when the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation resonated all at once.

As time passed, news about the Rising Sky Ranking Battle had also spread to the Greenwave Han Mansion’s district and the Greenwave Han Mansion’s estate.

“What?! The Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, Xu Jing, died during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle?” The Supreme Elder of Greenwave Han Mansion, Han Xin’s expression turned fierce when he found out about this. “Does this mean Xue Nai will get away with this?”

Soon after, Han Xin’s expression turned cold as killing intent shone in his eyes. “No way! There’s no way I’ll let her get away with this. Since I can no longer depend on Xu Jing, I’ll just have to deal with her on my own…”
