Southern Envoy was stunned after being slapped and sent flying!
Why did Ye Xuan attack so suddenly?
More importantly, how was he so strong?
Southern Envoy looked at Ye Xuan in the distance, hesitated, and then said, “Young Master Ye, I know you’re upset about what happened before. I…”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “Island Master Southern Envoy, you’re mistaken!”
Southern Envoy looked at Ye Xuan, who smiled faintly. “Back then, I was indeed upset. After all, I considered you a friend. But now, I’m no longer angry because I’ve repaid your kindness. As I said before, we’re even. As for now, I am indeed the leader of the Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect, and this Chaotic World belongs to the sect…”
He paused slightly, then continued, “Why should I share the Chaotic Power of this world with you? Who do you think you are? You’re not my woman!”
Southern Envoy: “…”
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Elder Xiao, see our guest out!”
With that, he turned and left.
Southern Envoy called out, “Aren’t you afraid everyone will band together against you?”
Without turning back, Ye Xuan replied, “If you dare make a move today, there’ll be no Immortal Treasure Pavilion in the world by tomorrow!”
Southern Envoy’s face turned ashen.
Xiao Ming looked at her. “Get lost!”
The Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect was well aware of Southern Envoy’s little schemes, but they hadn’t confronted the Immortal Treasure Pavilion initially, as they were wary of its mysterious pavilion master!
However, that mysterious pavilion master hadn’t appeared in a thousand years!
Now, with Ye Xuan, they weren’t afraid of any mysterious pavilion master!
We have Young Master Ye!
Southern Envoy remained silent for a long time before turning to leave.
How could she dare resist?
Here, the weakest were Saint Heart Realm, while the Immortal Treasure Pavilion had only her as a Saint Heart Realm expert!
The gap in strength was far too vast!
What she couldn’t wrap her head around was how Ye Xuan had become the leader of the Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect.
Her original plan was to pit Ye Xuan’s backers against the sect, letting them weaken each other so the Immortal Treasure Pavilion could swoop in. But now, Ye Xuan had become the sect leader!
The dragon-slaying youth had become the dragon?
That might not be entirely accurate, but she was utterly frustrated.
Target Ye Xuan?
She didn’t have the courage!
The memory of that mysterious woman in the plain skirt and her single sword strike still sent shivers down her spine!
At that moment, Southern Envoy stopped. She glanced around, a trace of confusion in her eyes.
In that instant, she suddenly felt the world was profoundly unfair!
What she had strived for her entire life and failed to achieve, Ye Xuan had obtained in such a short time!
With this thought, anger surged within her. She stopped, turned, and looked at Ye Xuan walking toward the Showing-Off Hall. “I feel it’s unfair! This world is too unfair!”
Ye Xuan paused and said softly, “When has the world ever been absolutely fair?”
Southern Envoy glared at Ye Xuan. “You have such good fortune!”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile, turned to her, and said, “What are you trying to say?”
Southern Envoy’s expression was calm. “You’re lucky to have an invincible sister. Without her, with your mediocre talent, how could you have come this far? Without her, could you have become the leader of the Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect?”
Ye Xuan shook his head, smiling. “Miss Southern Envoy, we met by a stroke of good fate. Even after we settled our debts and parted ways, I thought it was an amicable separation. I bore you no ill will and had no desire to. But now, you insult me with your words…”
He shook his head again. “I’m not angry, just rather disappointed. You’re no longer the wise Southern Envoy I first met.”
Southern Envoy stared at Ye Xuan. “Am I wrong?”
Ye Xuan laughed. “Of course you’re wrong. Without Qing’er, I still have my dad… Do you know who this Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect belongs to? It’s my dad’s!”
Southern Envoy’s expression froze.
Ye Xuan continued, “Miss Southern Envoy, if you think it’s unfair, why don’t you call me dad? That way, you’d have a powerful backer!”
Southern Envoy was furious. “You insult me!”
Before she could finish, her pupils shrank. She tried to retreat, but in the next moment, a sword pierced half an inch into her brow!
The Qingxuan Sword!
It suppressed her soul, rendering her immobile!
Southern Envoy stared at Ye Xuan in disbelief. “You… your strength… how are you so strong?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “I’ve always been this strong! When I asked if you needed me to destroy the Immortal Path Temple… did you think I was bluffing?”
Southern Envoy’s face was grim. She had thought Ye Xuan’s strength was average, but she hadn’t expected him to be *this* powerful!
She was a Saint Heart Realm expert!
Yet in front of Ye Xuan, she had no power to resist?
Southern Envoy was about to speak when the Qingxuan Sword completely absorbed her soul.
Until her death, she never imagined Ye Xuan would actually kill her!
She died with her eyes open!
For Ye Xuan, sparing you is my mercy, but that doesn’t mean I won’t kill you!
Ye Xuan repays kindness with kindness and vengeance with vengeance!
The kindness from before had been repaid, and they were even.

After returning to the hall, Ye Xuan discussed the Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect with Xiao Ming.
The sect currently had over forty sword cultivators, all in the Saint Heart Realm. Their goal was the Immortal Body, though a few focused solely on swordsmanship. These sword-focused cultivators were the sect’s strongest fighters.
The Mysterious Sword Immortal Sect was very powerful!
However, for his trip to the Burial Heaven Divine Domain, he decided not to bring these sword cultivators.
He was too strong now!
At his current level, he feared neither Immortal Body nor Eternal Immortality experts!
Thus, after giving Xiao Ming some instructions, Ye Xuan set off for the Burial Heaven Divine Domain.
Before leaving, he left Tu Chen and the others at the sect, as they had also reached the Saint Heart Realm!
—
In the starry river, Ye Xuan rode his sword, shuttling through space.
On the way, Little Pagoda suddenly said, “Little Master, will we become the underdog in the Burial Heaven Divine Domain?”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “I don’t know!”
Little Pagoda was about to say more when Ye Xuan said, “Enough chatter! We need to hurry!”
With that, his figure flickered, disappearing at the end of the starry river.
His dad had only given him a rough route, so he couldn’t use the Qingxuan Sword to teleport directly to the Burial Heaven Divine Domain!
The Burial Heaven Divine Domain!
The name alone didn’t sound like a friendly place!
Ye Xuan felt a headache coming on, wondering what trouble his sister had caused there.
The thought made him feel aggrieved!
Why should a younger brother clean up after his older sister?
What a rotten life.
Half a month later, Ye Xuan finally arrived at the Burial Heaven Divine Domain.
Upon entering, his brow furrowed. The air was thick with killing intent and malice.
Ye Xuan glanced around, the scent of blood lingering in the atmosphere.
As he was about to leave, an old man suddenly appeared before him.
Ye Xuan looked at the old man, his expression calm.
The old man smiled faintly. “Is this your first time in the Burial Heaven Divine Domain, young master?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Yes.”
The old man grinned. “Greetings, young master. I’m from the Immortal Treasure Pavilion!”
The Immortal Treasure Pavilion!
Ye Xuan was stunned. “The Immortal Treasure Pavilion?”
The old man nodded. “Indeed!”
He produced a scroll. “You’re new here and likely unfamiliar with the Burial Heaven Divine Domain. I have a document detailing its major forces, prominent experts, and dangerous areas… Originally priced at one hundred Star Veins, but now, only eighty-eight Star Veins!”
Eighty-eight Star Veins!
Ye Xuan’s lips twitched. “Why don’t you just rob me? The information you’re talking about—I can find out by asking around!”
The old man stroked his beard and smiled. “Basic information, you can indeed learn by asking. But some information isn’t so easily obtained—like which places are dangerous, which people to avoid, and so on.”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “Give me one!”
With a flick of his finger, a storage ring landed before the old man.
The old man grinned, handed the scroll to Ye Xuan, and after Ye Xuan stored it, produced another scroll. “Young master, this scroll details the realms and combat prowess of dangerous figures, as well as the danger levels of hazardous areas… Do you need it?”
Ye Xuan’s expression froze.
Damn it!
A scam!
This was a blatant scam!
Ye Xuan suddenly laughed. “Give me one!”
With another flick, a storage ring landed before the old man.
The old man quickly stored it and handed over the scroll. As Ye Xuan took it, the old man pulled out yet another scroll. “Young master, I see you’re no ordinary man. Most experts likely pose little threat to you. This scroll lists some mysterious, supremely powerful experts whose strength is extraordinary. Only one hundred eighty Star Veins—are you interested?”
Ye Xuan glanced at the old man. “Give me one!”
With a flick, another storage ring landed before the old man.
The old man quickly stored it, then pulled out another scroll. “Young master, judging by your demeanor, it’s your first time here. You’re likely here to seek Star God Veins or find someone. This scroll contains maps of several ruins, all at least from Eternal Will Realm experts. Today, the Immortal Treasure Pavilion is holding an event—no ten thousand, no eight thousand, just three thousand eight hundred Star Veins. Interested?”
Ye Xuan nodded. “Yes!”
With a flick, another storage ring landed before the old man.
The old man was beaming, unable to close his mouth. He stored the ring, then produced a token. “Young master, if you obtain divine items or Star God Veins, you’ll surely be hunted. This is a Protection Token. With it, you can stay at the Immortal Treasure Pavilion for one day, fully protected. Young master, the previous items were optional, but this one is a must-buy—it’s a lifesaver! Only five thousand two hundred Star Veins. Five thousand two hundred Star Veins for a life—isn’t that worth it?”
Ye Xuan glanced at the old man. “It’s worth it!”
With a flick, another storage ring landed before the old man.
The old man’s eyes nearly closed from smiling. He stored the ring, then pulled out a piece of white cloth covered in writing. “Young master, since you’ve bought the Protection Token, it’s clear you’re here to stir things up. I must recommend this!”
He said seriously, “This is a Life Safety Insurance. If you purchase it, any injuries from danger will entitle you to free rescue from the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, no matter where you are—we’ll arrive in the shortest time. All medical expenses for your injuries will be covered by us. Plus, each injury comes with compensation based on its severity. If you unfortunately perish in battle, you’ll receive ten times the compensation. For example, if you spend ten thousand Star Veins on this insurance, your family will receive one hundred thousand Star Veins upon your death. We’ll also handle your burial, ensuring your affairs are managed with dignity, so you depart in glory!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
