This young man was named Xiao Sheng, and he was a member of the Xiao Clan Heavenly Domain City.
At such a young age, his cultivation had already reached the Peak Half-Emperor, and his strength was extremely formidable.
I came to Starry Sky City with my elders for two reasons: first, because I was taken away from the Heaven-Ascending Steps; and second, because I wanted to see the Tianjiao of Starry Sky City.
As soon as Xiao Sheng finished speaking, the entire scene fell silent.
Everyone's expression was rather grim.
It's important to understand that Ye Xuan not only slapped the Blood Baleful Intent Sect in the face, but also killed many powerful figures from the Human Immortal Sect and the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
Of course, the Blood Baleful Intent Sect suffered the most, since their Immortal Spiritual Vein were stolen.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Xiao Sheng couldn't help but ask, "Why are you all silent? What does this mean?"
Upon hearing this, a powerful figure from the Human Immortal Sect immediately cupped his hands and said, "Young hero, you are unaware of this. This person has already escaped, and we are also searching for him, but we do not know his whereabouts."
"Hmm?" Xiao Sheng frowned. "What does this mean?"
The man continued, "This boy is treacherous and cunning, and incredibly audacious. He killed many members of our three major forces, and not long ago he even stole the Blood Baleful Intent Sect's Immortal Spiritual Vein. Now, he has long since fled to who knows where."
Xiao Sheng was stunned and couldn't help but look towards the Blood Baleful Intent Sect.
Did they steal the Immortal Spiritual Vein?
How is that possible?
Just then, the powerful Human Immortal Sect spoke again, "Moreover, this person is also related to the disappearance of the Heaven-Ascending Steps. According to our investigation, it is very likely that he took the Heaven-Ascending Steps with him."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Sheng and the others were immediately shocked.
Even in the Heavenly Domain, the Heaven-Ascending Steps is an absolute treasure.
Even though the Xiao Clan had powerful members who tried to take away the Heaven-Ascending Steps, they were simply unable to do so.
Now that someone is saying that the Heaven-Ascending Steps cultivator might be taken away by a low-level cultivator, how could he not be shocked?
At the same time, the three Heavenly Domain experts had already arrived at the place where the Heaven-Ascending Steps disappeared.
However, what they saw was desolation.
Not only was the Heaven-Ascending Steps gone, but even the locked-up skeleton had vanished.
" The Heaven-Ascending Steps... it really is a magical artifact, and someone even took it away?"
All three powerful individuals were extremely shocked.
After all, hearing about something and seeing it with your own eyes are two different things.
"Investigate! We must find out who took the Heaven-Ascending Steps! Even the strongest members of our Lineage couldn't take such a treasure, how could we allow someone else to do so?"
As the three of them spoke, they vanished from the spot in an instant.
The three quickly returned to Starry Sky City. Upon hearing that Ye Xuan had likely taken the Heaven-Ascending Steps, they immediately used their great supernatural powers to search for Ye Xuan.
Xiao Sheng was somewhat disappointed not to see Ye Xuan, and asked again, "Where are Xue Chen Blood Baleful Intent Sect, Devil Moon of the Human Immortal Sect, Wu Qiu of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance?"
"I've heard they are among the best of the elite below the Emperor Realm in Starry Sky City, and I'd like to have a friendly spar. Would you do me the honor?"
His words were like a vicious slap in the face to the cultivators of the Blood Baleful Intent Sect and the Human Immortal Sect.
This guy, he's doing it on purpose, isn't he? He really knows how to bring up the wrong thing.
The powerful figure from the Human Immortal Sect couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Young hero, you may not know, but Xue Chen and Wu Qiu have both perished."
"As for Yue'er, she's probably not as good as you, young hero. She's currently in seclusion. I'll inform her when she emerges."
Xiao Sheng was somewhat disheartened. "Since that's the case, then so be it. Let Devil Moon out of seclusion and come find me."
With that, he left the place.
How boring, we couldn't even find a decent opponent.
I originally wanted to put those three prodigies from Starry Sky City to shame, but I never expected them to be so useless. Two of them died, leaving only one woman.
He, Xiao Sheng, wouldn't stoop to bullying a woman.
After Xiao Sheng left, the Half-Emperor cultivators from the three major powers, especially the Peak Half-Emperor cultivators, were somewhat dissatisfied.
This guy's attitude is incredibly arrogant.
Devil Moon Mansion.
Devil Moon is cultivating.
Ye Xuan was also cultivating.
He had just obtained nine Immortal Spiritual Vein, so he was rich in resources and planned to lay low for a while.
However, Ye Xuan didn't dare to absorb the Immortal Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth, as that would easily attract attention. He only absorbed the Immortal Spiritual Qi within the Immortal Spiritual Vein to cultivate.
Main hall.
Devil Moon was cultivating when she suddenly couldn't help but open her eyes.
She felt that the Immortal Spiritual Qi in the world was much stronger than usual, but upon closer inspection, she couldn't detect anything unusual.
"What's going on?" Devil Moon was puzzled. Even after using her spiritual sense to investigate, she couldn't find the reason, so she simply stopped worrying about it and focused on cultivating as well.
