Chapter 406: Hunting Down

“Things are troublesome this time. It is a long-standing rule that experts of Mysterious Realm shall not cross the border, but this rule is subject to the Golden Book of Fate. Even if the sects of Three Western Regions give us permission to do that, we still cannot cross the border!”

When he saw Li VII, Li VII already had a smile of mischief on his face. He then continued to congratulate him.

Zhou Bao already heard it thousands of times, so he just saluted with his hands folded in front of his chest and said, “Third Supervisor, you are indeed flattering me. I’m so sorry for bothering you with such a trivial matter.”

“This is not a trivial matter. This is something huge!” Li VII smiled and said, “Besides, this time I came here mainly for the matter of Borderline Mountain that will happen in three months, and while I’m at it, to also congratulate you.”

“Oh, about that matter. Why, does Third Supervisor have some special instructions for me?”

“No, no. All sects have dispatched their strongest team to Borderline Mountain. However, the combat capability is still lagging behind on the whole.” Li VII sighed.

“Lagging behind? No way. I’ve heard that there is a total of 17 people including me, but the other side has only three people!”

“No one knows how many people Ye Qingtian have. Maybe they have other accomplices, who knows?” Speaking of that, he sighed gently, “You have to understand that Ye Qingtian has stayed in the Penglai Region all the time, but the person who possesses the Fiery Eyes and the assassin who has Pure Yang Celestial Device have never shown up before in Four Eastern Regions. We have reasons to believe that their base has always been hidden in Three Western Regions. And I’m afraid, they have more than three people!”

“So this is just about sending us to die?” Zhou Bao’s expression changed when he figured out what was going on.

At first, Zhou Bao did not think twice when the Divine Wind Palace told him that they were putting up a team to hunt Ye Qingtian down.

Ye Qingtian had openly ganged up with the remnant of Fiery Eyes, which was bound to induce the others to chase after him. There should not be any dirty trick. If the Divine Wind Palace did not hunt him down, then there must be something wrong in it. Now they put up a team to go after Ye Qingtian in the Three Western Regions, but not a single Individual Immortal at Mysterious Realm level was in the team, which made Zhou Bao worried. Ye Qingtian was too powerful and he even had a fairy weapon with him, so his combat capability definitely surpassed most experts at Mysterious Realm. Needless to say, there was an unparalleled expert who grabbed the projection of Golden Book of Fate and possessed the Fiery Eyes. Obviously, if they still owned some foundation or bases in the Three Western Regions, these 17 people stepping into the Three Western Regions would mean that they were seeking their doom!

That was obviously a trap!

“Of course I would not ask you to die for me!” Li VII had expected how Zhou Bao would respond to it. “Trust me. This time, we are well-prepared, and the sects in Three Western Regions will not make things difficult for you both in public and in private. They will even give you some help when necessary. Although Ye Qingtian has a fairy weapon, we Divine Wind Palace have Yu Nantian this time, who is from the Yu family. Though his cultivation is only at Level Nine, his combat capability is way stronger than normal Metaphysic Individual Immortals and is not inferior to Ye Qingtian.” Speaking of it, he threw a glimpse at Zhou Bao, “Most importantly, Yu Nantian also has a fairy weapon with him, a special one to oppress the North Pole Frozen Wheel of Ye Qingtian. So, you don’t have to worry about his fairy weapon, let alone the remnant of Fiery Eyes. Golden Book of Fate is not so easy to be refined. It’s impossible for him to completely comprehend the Golden Book of Fate within ten years even though he has owned the projection of Golden Book of Fate. Most importantly, when he is comprehending the Golden Book of Fate, he is unable to use the power of Fiery Eyes!”

“Can this even happen?” Zhou Bao was shocked, but he did not show it. He just pretended to be curious and asked, “Why?”

“No one knows why, but it is a fact that the Fiery Eyes was annihilated for this back then. They attempted to take full control over the Golden Book of Fate, but their most powerful Elders temporarily lost the power of Fiery Eyes during the process, resulting in a huge decrease in their combat capability!”

“That is to say, no one actually knows whether the Fiery Eyes can control the Golden Book of Fate or not!”

“No, the Fiery Eyes can definitely control the Golden Book of Fate, but they didn’t have enough time!”

“Since the Elders of Fiery Eyes failed, how can you be so sure about it?”

“If the Fiery Eyes couldn’t control the Golden Book of Fate, that guy wouldn’t have grabbed the Golden Book of Fate in Taiyuan Heaven so smoothly,” Li VII said.

“That is not necessarily true. What if Fiery Eyes only had some common traits as Golden Book of Fate’s, so he could use them to snatch the Golden Book of Fate, but in fact, the Fiery Eyes can’t apprehend a complete control over the Golden Book of Fate?”

“It doesn’t matter. As long as this possibility exists, it could be a huge threat to us. We must annihilate it in the cradle!” Li VII said cooly, “The reason I’m here today is not to discuss the Fiery Eyes, but to ask you a favor for the purpose of this chase!”

“Damn, of course it’s important. I have Fiery Eyes too!” When Zhou Bao heard Li VII said it was not important, he almost shouted out loud. “Divine Wind Palace has the largest number of disciples. Since you are the Third Supervisor of School of Five Virtues, if you have something to do, just ask them to do it for you. Why did you come to me? I may not be able to help you!”

“I can’t ask them for help, so I turned to you!” Li VII put up a forced smile.

“What’s the matter?”

“It’s Ye Qingtian. I want you to save Ye Qingtian’s life for me when necessary!”

“What? Save Ye Qingtian?” Zhou Bao almost jumped up when he heard that. “This time we are going to hunt Ye Qingtian down, not to bodyguard him!”

“That’s why I’m here for you!” Li VII smiled wryly at him. “Although you are nominally related to Immortal Palace, you don’t belong to any party, so you are my last hope. I know you and Ye Qingtian are enemies with huge hatred. This hatred can be solved. To be honest, you two didn’t have any serious grudge at all!”

“No any serious grudge? It’s easy for you to say it. I’ve grabbed his Sky-measuring Star Ruler and ruined his plan in Taiyuan Heaven. After getting out of Taiyuan Heaven, he went to my territory and made troubles. It won’t be easy to dissolve this hatred!”

“This is not a blood feud!” Li VII interrupted and said, “If there are enough benefits, this hatred could be solved!”

“Benefits?” Zhou Bao frowned and appeared to be intrigued by it, “What benefits?”

“Huge benefits!”

“Third Supervisor, don’t keep me guessing. I’m always a profit-driven person. If you really want me to help you, you should tell me everything. I don’t want to be fooled!”

“I wouldn’t do that!” Hearing the words of Zhou Bao, Li VII laughed, “Ye Qingtian knows the secrets of Big Dipper Emperor. Sky-measuring Star Ruler and the North Pole Frozen Wheel are just two of those secrets. The Taihao Fairy Weapons seem precious now, but in antiquity times, they were easy to find. Above all, Big Dipper Emperor owned one of the 33 Heavens, the Constellation Heaven, whose secrets may be known to Ye Qingtian!”

“The Constellation Heaven?” Zhou Bao blinked, greediness sparkling in his eyes, but soon he was back to normal.

“Constellation Heaven belonged to Big Dipper Emperor. His Big Dipper Palace was also built in it. There were all the treasures of Big Dipper Emperor in that palace. If you could take up one or two pieces of those treasures, they would be more valuable than normal Taihao Fairy Weapons, let alone the entire Big Dipper Palace!” Seeing Zhou Bao interested in it, Li VII spiced things up a bit.

“It’s not easy. He knows the secrets of Constellation Heaven, but so what? Even if I was willing to reconcile with him, he wouldn’t be so sure to compromise. The grudge between us is way too deep!”

“No harm trying!” Seeing the greed flash in Zhou Bao’s eyes, Li VII felt a bit relieved and said, “I have some dealings with Ye Qingtian. Hehe, White Tiger tried his best to stick to Ye Qingtian in Penglai Region, but failed anyway, because I tampered with it. If I hadn’t, maybe Ye Qingtian would have already been a disciple of Immortal Palace 10 years ago!”

Zhou Bao was stunned and uttered no words. After a while, he sighed and said, “I see. How firm is your relationship with him? Can you really settle the grudge between him and me?”

Now Zhou Bao seemed to be enchanted by the huge benefits Li VII described.

“Of course, Ye Qingtian owed me a life back in the days. Although he is not a good man, he always repays the kindness he receives, and revenge on whoever hurt him. As long as I act as a mediator and you show enough sincerity, everything will be fine!”

“I can try, but you have to know that I am on the team to hunt him down this time. A brutal fight is inevitable. How can I win his trust?”

“That is simple!” As Li VII spoke, he took off his green jade ring and handed it over to Zhou Bao. “If you got a chance to meet him alone, show him this ring and tell him that someone from Myriad Gooses Tower wants to cooperate with him, and then he should know what I mean!”

“Got it!” Zhou Bao took the ring and waved his hands, and then it was stored in his divided space. Regarding the relationship between Li VII and Ye Qingtian, Zhou Bao did not ask about the details. Apparently, Li VII did not want to talk much about it.

“By the way, there’s one more thing.”

“What is it?”

“You have to be careful around Yu Nantian. This guy is crafty and he is the nephew of the lord. He’s got a lot of dirty tricks. If he wants to go against you, you will be in a lot of trouble!”

“He wants to go against me? I don’t even know him!” Zhou Bao was puzzled.

“Some people are born to be enemies, just like you and Yu Nantian!”
