Supreme Saint, Your Trouble Has Arrived

The sky was blood red, like blood itself, and the dark environment created an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

Xu Bai was in the air, getting closer and closer to the sky. When he reached the top of the sky, he raised his hand and pressed it against the sky.

As the True Yuan Power surged, countless cracks appeared across the entire sky.

The cracks gradually spread across the sky, slowly extending until, soon, a large hole quietly appeared in the very center.

And as the cracks deepened, they gradually spread.

In the blink of an eye, a large hole had formed. Without hesitation, Xu Bai threw himself into the hole and quickly disappeared into the horizon.

As time passed, the large hole gradually shrank until it disappeared completely.

It was the same familiar dark environment, the same vast and desolate space. Xu Bai stood there, surveying his surroundings.

He saw ten prisoners in prison clothes standing there trembling, looking extremely frightened.

"We're back to life! We've actually been resurrected! What's going on?"

"I remember that Eunuch Wei seemed to have killed us, so how could we suddenly come back to life?"

"Look who he is! It's the Blood Slaughtering Saber Wielder!"

The death row inmates were talking amongst themselves when one of them, a sharp-eyed one, saw Xu Bai arrive and immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"You son of a bitch!"

Xu Bai showed no respect to the group of death row inmates in prison uniforms, raising his hand to slap one of them. The inmate who was slapped rolled on the ground for a while, half of his face a bloody mess.

The other death row inmates were trembling with fear, not daring to breathe, their heads bowed and shaking uncontrollably.

Xu Bai knew that they would soon return to the human world after their resurrection, so without saying a word, he directly used his True Yuan Power to control all the death row inmates present.

"Come here and tell me what happened between you two."

He casually pointed to a death row inmate and beckoned with his finger.

The controlled death row inmate walked out with a blank expression, trembling as if he were a piece of old, worn-out wood.

"This is what happened: We were summoned by Eunuch Wei and then killed. Before killing us, Eunuch Wei left us a letter, and everyone received one."

He spoke very briefly, as Xu Bai had requested, since they needed to hurry. Xu Bai nodded and waved his hand, and all the death row inmates present took out their letters. After a moment, when Xu Bai had read all the contents of the letters, he put them away.

"Write these words with your blood." Xu Bai was still pointing at the death row inmate from the beginning.

The death row inmate, under control, nodded rapidly without the slightest hesitation.

Next, under Xu Bai's dictation, a large amount of material was quickly written using the blood of a death row inmate.

The moment the letter was placed in the condemned prisoners' arms, they began to turn into smoke; their time for resurrection had come.

Xu Bai watched as these people disappeared, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

The rest is quite simple.

All we need to do is wait for the Chu Emperor's reply, and then work together—no, we need to cooperate wholeheartedly—to complete this plan.

Xu Bai stretched, but this time he didn't go out; instead, he waited patiently.

world.

Inside the Imperial Study of the Great Chu Kingdom's palace, oil lamps were lit even in the dead of night. In the bright light, the Chu Emperor sat in a chair, silently watching the orange-yellow glow of the oil lamps.

His eyes darted around, staring silently. No one knew what he was thinking, but no one dared to disturb him.

"Squeak--"

Just then, a creaking sound rang out, the door was pushed open, and Eunuch Wei, hunched over with his hands tucked into his sleeves like an old man in his twilight years, slowly walked in, closed the door, and then came to a spot not far from the Chu Emperor.

He took his hands out of his sleeves, and placed a letter on the Chu Emperor's table.

"Your Majesty, we have received a letter." After putting the letter down, Eunuch Wei resumed his hunched posture.

The Chu Emperor raised his eyelids, took the letter in his hand, and tore it open.

The front of the letter contained his message, while the blank space on the back was written in blood.

After silently scanning the contents, the Chu Emperor handed it to Eunuch Wei and said calmly, "It seems he's also thinking of ways to cooperate with him in the Ghost Market."

When Eunuch Wei received it, he read it through as well, and was slightly shocked afterward.

"Giant Tree, capable of harming even Supreme Saint being, leaving the Supreme Saint with only one eye—it was they who created it. Just how powerful must they be to achieve such an ability?"

The Chu Emperor smiled bitterly and said, "The world is so vast that we are but a drop in the ocean among countless worlds. I once thought that Exiting Sainthood was the limit, but now it seems that Exiting Sainthood is just a speck of dust in this world."

Eunuch Wei nodded and said, "Your Majesty, it seems we need to hurry up and make arrangements. We need to assign manpower to each circular pattern."

"According to this letter, the Giant Tree will not harm ordinary people. Xu Bai's plan is to lure the Giant Tree into the Ruins, let the Giant Tree fight the Supreme Saint, and inflict indelible damage on the Supreme Saint to delay the opportunity."

"Nowadays, Ruins are frequently appearing in the world, which is a good idea, but I don't know if it can completely destroy the Supreme Saint."

He read through the letter, and it contained the same main points: he wanted to provoke a battle between the Supreme Saint and the Giant Tree.

The specific method of action, as he just mentioned, is to assign people to each circular pattern to see from which the Supreme Saint One will descend.

The Chu Emperor said, "Even such a powerful being could only retreat. Although the current Supreme Saint only has one eye left, he is not so easy to deal with. Do you think Xu Bai might not just be trying to leave a wound on the Supreme Saint?"

Eunuch Wei remained hunched over, but his brows furrowed as he fell into deep thought.

He began pacing back and forth, pondering what the Chu Emperor had just said. After a moment, he suddenly looked up.

"Understood!"

"Xu Bai's ultimate goal is to get out of the Ghost Market, and this step he took seems to be his intention."

"But how exactly can we get out of there? Even if we can injure the Supreme Saint, we may not be able to get out safely, since there's no way to test it."

Even if he could severely injure the Supreme Saint, who could say for sure that the Supreme Saint's plan would be ruined? Xu Bai shouldn't have dared to come out so impulsively. This was something that Eunuch Wei couldn't quite understand.

The Chu Emperor said, "As for how he got out, I'm not entirely sure. He didn't explain it clearly, and I can't guess for sure. But I feel that he's more than that."

No one knew what Xu Bai would do, since it wasn't specified in the document. However, the Chu Emperor felt they should cooperate unconditionally. The reason was simple: Xu Bai Xu Bai was now the key to turning the tide, and following his methods was the most important thing.

Eunuch Wei nodded. "I'll take care of it right away."

The Chu Emperor nodded and said, "Prepare a few more death row inmates and tell them that we are ready to cooperate, so that he can take action."

"Oh right, didn't he say in his letter that he wanted a job that could create clones? Let's go look for one and see if we can find one."

"Yes!" Eunuch Wei replied and left immediately.

After Eunuch Wei left, the Chu Emperor tapped the table lightly with his fingers and muttered to himself.

"Xu Bai, Xu Bai, I don't know what you're thinking, but the fate of the world rests on your shoulders, and I will cooperate with you unconditionally."

The oil lamp on the table flickered, illuminating the face of the Chu Emperor, making him appear mysterious and unpredictable.

The Ghost Market.

Xu Bai waited patiently.

After about half an hour, the surrounding space began to shake again, and the ten figures transformed from nothingness into solidity, becoming another ten death row inmates.

Before the death row inmates could speak, Xu Bai swiftly subdued them, took out the envelopes from their pockets, opened them, and scanned their contents.

He quickly finished reading all the content.

"His Majesty the Chu Emperor is as decisive and efficient as ever. That's good, I can implement it immediately."

Xu Bai stretched, then, following the same method, had the death row inmates in front of him take some messages back before turning around and leaving the space. He then dug another large hole and returned to the Ghost Market.

In no time at all, they had arrived in the dark red sky.

"We can begin, A Wu. We will bring the disaster before the Supreme Saint One and let him experience the taste of being hurt," Xu Bai's voice rang out calmly.

A moment later, a beam of light flashed, and a huge crack appeared in the sky. The tall and slender A Wu descended from the sky.

A Wu remained unchanged. "Are you really going to make a move?"

"Why not? When people are desperate, they always have to fight back and see how far they can turn the situation around," Xu Bai shrugged.

"How can I lure him there? Is there anything I need to do?"

A Wu shook his head and said, "Luring him over is simple. We don't need to do anything. I just need to do the work."

As she spoke, A Wu suddenly reached out, grabbed her right hand, and gently pulled it off. Her right hand was like a wisp of water, which was quickly transformed into a person exactly like her.

Even though Xu Bai had seen many special abilities before, he still found this very strange.

A Wu laughed and said, "I am the same as you. We share the same roots. Your abilities are diverse, and so are mine. What you have experienced, we have all experienced."

Xu Bai understood.

Since everyone is exactly the same, their cheat codes are also the same, and it's normal for them to have multiple abilities.

After all, Xu Bai has lost count of how many abilities he has now. Although they have all been integrated into the Wanban series of skills, they can all be used independently.

However, this discovery made Xu Bai's eyes light up.

Xu Bai asked, "If you leave traces, will I be able to follow those traces and obtain what I want?"

A Wu asked helplessly, "What level do you think I am?"

Xu Bai thought for a moment and said, "Enter the Saintly Realm?"

A Wu replied, "You're mistaken. I've already reached the realm of Exiting Sainthood. I can't even leave a trace when Exiting Sainthood sainthood, let alone transcend it. This rule can't be broken unless we can kill the Supreme Saint. But if we can kill him, there's no need to break this rule."

Xu Bai thought about it carefully, and it seemed to make sense.

He broke the rules to gain power, all for the purpose of killing the Supreme Saint.

There exists Supreme Saint being, yet it is impossible to break through.

If we could kill the Supreme Saint, we could break through, but since we've already killed him, there's no need to break through.

"Let's begin, we don't have much time," Xu Bai said.

He didn't want to say any more about this issue; making the most of the time was the best course of action.

"Next, he will go there with my aura. Just give me the token." A Wu said, reaching out his hand.

Xu Bai nodded, took out the token he had prepared beforehand, and handed it to A Wu.

After receiving the token, A Wu handed it to his clone, who quickly took the token and headed towards the location of the Giant Tree.

Xu Bai was quite disappointed. In fact, he really wanted to have the ability to create clones. Not long ago, he wanted to try using clones to see if he could get out, but unfortunately, A Wu could not leave any traces, so he gave up on the idea.

Moreover, the Chu Emperor's latest reply also stated that he would do his best to help him find it, and he was not in a hurry.

Soon, A Wu's clone disappeared into the sky, and a few moments later, terrifying roars echoed across the sky.

Gradually, the roar faded into the distance and soon disappeared.

A Wu closed his eyes and carefully sensed the surroundings. After a moment, he opened his eyes, looked at Xu Bai, and said, "It's a success. I've successfully lured him out."

"Aren't you going to tell me your plans for the future?"

Xu Bai smiled and said, "The subsequent plans also need to be adjusted accordingly. Let's see what happens next."

A Wu smiled and didn't press the matter further.

"Let's go, let's find a place to talk. We haven't spoken for so many years, I want to talk to someone."

Xu Bai shrugged and said, "I'd be happy to."

The two quickly disappeared, and the area became empty again.

world.

In a relatively remote circular area, a dozen or so members of the Bureau of Surveillance were on guard at that moment.

Everyone had a serious expression, and they remained silent.

The scene was completely silent, as if dead.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the circular pattern, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Before they arrived, they had been informed that this mission was extremely important and that they must proceed with extreme caution.

The most important thing is to guard this place. If anything unusual happens, don't pay attention to it. Just make sure that the unusual thing doesn't harm the civilians.

The circular pattern looks somewhat old, and due to neglect, it is covered with a dense layer of moss.

It was nighttime, and the moonlight added to the mysterious atmosphere.

Just then, the circular pattern suddenly became abnormal.

A beam of light shot straight into the sky, illuminating the night as if it were daytime, dazzling and blinding.

Amidst the fearful gazes of the people from the Bureau of Surveillance, a towering Giant Tree suddenly emerged.

The tree was covered with all sorts of heads, which looked ferocious and terrifying.
