Chapter 888: A Deal With Li Xueying, the Countdown to the Black Blood Tower’s Destruction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Just as Li Xueying was about to die, a white figure suddenly appeared.

That figure standing before her was tall and slender, with an inexplicably stalwart air about him. It gave Li Xueying a comforting sense of security.

Meanwhile, the gold-masked assassin was held back three meters from that white figure. It was as if an invisible barrier was in his way, preventing him from reaching her with his attacks.

The next instant.

The huge golden palm immediately shattered and dispersed.

“Who the hell are you?!”

The gold-masked assassin said with much horror as he looked at the white figure that had appeared out of nowhere.

To think his full-strength attack was blocked so easily by that person?

His opponent’s strength was clearly unfathomable.

“Who am I, huh? Hm… Let’s just say I’m the one who’s about to wipe out the Black Blood Tower.”

Chu Kuangren said lightly. Following that, his mind power instantly poured out and locked onto every Black Blood Tower assassin around him.

How powerful was his soul energy now?

At the Firth Cycle’s peak of his Nine-Cycle Trinity Soul Refinement, he could battle a peak-stage Great Daoist Celestial with only his soul energy, let alone three of them.

His mind power was enough to kill every Great Daoist Celestial on sight.

He did not even need to use his Single Thought Series at all.

Boom, boom, boom…

Several veils of blood mists exploded in the void one after another. Before they could even react, all of the assassins were already dead.

The surrounding onlooking cultivators could not help but feel a chill running down their spine.

“How did he kill all of these men?”

“What did he just say? He’s going to destroy the Black Blood Tower? Is he really going to fight the Black Blood Tower? Has he gone mad?”

Everyone began distancing themselves from Chu Kuangren.

Chu Kuangren ignored them, turned around, and walked towards Li Xueying. He then used the Spring Breeze Healing Technique to heal her injuries.

“Noble daughter of the Li Clan, why don’t we make a deal?”

Chu Kuangren immediately cut to the chase.

“A deal?”

Li Xueying was a little puzzled as she returned to her senses.

“That’s right.”

“Who are you?”

Although he was the one that saved her, Li Xueying revealed a cautious look after discovering that he had a motive for doing it.

Chu Kuangren was not bothered about her cautiousness. He simply lifted the spiritual veil covering his face and said, “My name is Chu Kuangren.”

Everyone surrounding them gasped upon hearing that name.

“The Sword Poem Immortal, Chu Kuangren!!”

“Why… Why is he here of all places?”

Li Xueying was stunned to hear that name too.

‘So he’s the Sword Poem Immortal…’

‘I can’t believe it’s him.’

“What kind of deal?”

“It’s too noisy here. Let’s find somewhere else to talk,” Chu Kuangren said and walked towards a luxurious inn nearby.

Li Xueying also followed him.

She had a hunch.

‘Perhaps the fate of the Li clan’s lies on Chu Kuangren himself.’

Amidst the crowd.

A man in gray robes was looking at Chu Kuangren and Li Xueying strangely.

“Chu Kuangren has appeared on Planet Sirius. It seems like he’s here just to take down the Black Blood Tower. This is not good. I must notify the Master as soon as possible!”

He was an assassin from the Black Blood Tower too.

Soon, news of Chu Kuangren’s arrival at Planet Zi spread like wildfire.

Many of the Black Blood Tower’s assassins quickly rushed toward him. Among them, a lot were gold-masked assassins as well. After all, in the Black Blood Tower’s list of assassination targets, the bounty for Chu Kuangren’s head was the highest!

Assassins would kill as long as they were paid.

Moreover, most killers would be interested in a bounty as great as this.

Inside the inn.

Chu Kuangren ignored everyone’s gaze and ordered a table full of delicious food. At the sight of all that food, Li Xueying began salivating. It has been a long time since she had a good meal.

“Just eat away.”

Chu Kuangren said.

“I shall help myself then.”

Li Xueying immediately picked up her chopsticks and started eating. Although she had not enjoyed food as good as that for a long time, she still maintained a ladylike demeanor while eating quickly. She did not look barbaric gobbling up the food without any regard from her at all.

She was not afraid that Chu Kuangren would poison the food either.

If the Sword Poem Immortal wanted to harm her, would he need to resort to using cheap tricks like poison?

Chu Kuangren continued to drink the wine. He was not in a hurry to speak.

After a while, Li Xueying was almost full, and she was the one to speak first. “What brings you here, Sword Poem Immortal?”

“I’m here to take down the Black Blood Tower.”

Chu Kuangren immediately answered.

“You’re enemies with the Black Blood Tower?”

“Not really. It’s just that they’re coming after my life because of Planet Zi’s rewards. That’s why I need to get rid of them. So, they’re not really my enemies.”

Chu Kuangren said.

Hatred was something that he would always remember.

As for the Black Blood Tower, they were not worth him remembering them at all.

The other guests in the inn could not help but be impressed by his boldness when they heard that.

‘That’s the Black Blood Tower we’re talking about here, the most powerful organization on Planet Sirius now. Even in the Violet Gold Galaxy, they are still very well-known for their power.’

‘Yet, Chu Kuangren is simply going to destroy them just because he wants to?’

‘I’m afraid no one can come up close to him with such boldness and arrogance.’

“You were talking about a deal earlier. What do you mean by that?”

Li Xueying asked again.

“I have almost fully grasped the situation here on Planet Sirius. The goals of your Li clan happen to align with mine. I can help you destroy the Black Blood Tower, but I want your Li clan’s Immortal Techniques and forbidden techniques in return. Besides this, my Firmament Star might even build relations with Planet Sirius in the foreseeable future, so I want your Li clan to oversee and facilitate this process.”

Chu Kuangren said.

That was the reason why he saved Li Xueying.

Having also witnessed the power of the Li clan’s Immortal Technique and forbidden technique earlier, he became interested in it and would not mind learning a few new tricks.

“I’m afraid I can’t make the decision.”

“It doesn’t matter. As long as you give me your word, I can help you rise to the rank of the Li Clan Leader. When that time comes, you can call the shots without trouble.”

Chu Kuangren explained casually.

The corners of Li Xueying’s mouth twitched. She finally understood that the terms of the deal were not in her favor all along. While Chu Kuangren had all the chips in the negotiation, the Li Clan had none at all.

“My guest, here’s your wine.”

At that moment, a young waiter came to them with a jar of wine.

“I do not recall ordering any wine.”

“The innkeeper of this inn is a big fan of yours, Sword Poem Immortal. That’s why he’s offering to give this wine to you for free.” The young waiter smiled flatteringly.

“Oh, I see. Please offer my thanks to the innkeeper then.”

Chu Kuangren grinned a little.

He took the jar of wine, poured some for himself, and immediately drank a cup in one go.

He continued telling Li Xueying, “In all honesty, this is not so much of a deal but an opportunity that I’m offering the Li clan. If you accept it, the Li Clan will be reborn and flourish. It won’t affect me much if you reject it, but the Li clan will cease to exist from here on out.”

He continued drinking the wine while speaking. Li Xueying also wanted to pour some wine to drink but found her hand being slapped away by Chu Kuangren.

‘How short-tempered…’

Li Xueying pouted.

“Very well. I’ll agree with your terms!”

She nodded.

As Chu Kuangren said, the Li Clan had no choice left.

“Alright.”

“To show my sincerity, I promise you that I shall wipe the Black Blood Tower off the face of this planet… within a single month!”

Chu Kuangren drank all the wine in that jar until the last drop.

After he finished speaking.

He waved his sleeves and unleashed his majestic Emperor qi, slamming it into the void everywhere around him like a crashing tide.

Several figures were blasted out from the void. Some of them could not bear such powerful Emperor qi and immediately died from an explosion.

The guests in the inn were horrified to see that, and everyone quickly fled the scene.

“When?”

Li Xueying’s expression changed a little as she looked at the figures who were blasted out from the void. They were all assassins from the Black Blood Tower!

“Sword Poem Immortal Chu Kuangren, today is the day you shall die!”

A gold-masked assassin said coldly.

“You’re mistaken, today is not the day that I’ll die, but the first day of the countdown to the Black Blood Tower’s destruction,” Chu Kuangren said lightly.
