Chapter 564: I Want To Keep A Low Profile (I)

The stronger the organs and body were, the harder it was to break the locks. For those like her and He Yong, they could easily break theirs.

Li Hao breathed out slightly, it was good that his method worked. He really wanted the boot—but what a pity there was only one. Even so, just one of them was a lifesaving device. Earthturner Sword and the others wouldn’t care. They would be able to break one thousand meters in a split second by themselves, or they wouldn’t need to flee for their lives at all. But for Li Hao, having this boot meant that he was that much more confident in maneuvering through the world.

This was just one of them, where was the other?

“Why don’t we head to the Steadfast Duke for revenge,” Li Hao suddenly proposed upon hearing Light Sword’s words. “We can take the other boot from him...”

Hong Yitang and Light Sword looked at him with shock. The hell? Are you crazy? Light Sword was especially agog with the young man’s boldness.

“You can’t do that!” she said hastily. “He has a lot of powerhouses. I only succeeded because Xu Qing thought I was doomed to die and therefore didn’t care if I took anything from him. He’s powerful beyond compare and can fend off my attacks without unsealing himself. He only suffered a small amount of injuries...

“His strength might measure up to Earthturner Sword or even be a little stronger. His manor has received plenty of benefits over the years. He also has three major generals alive and well. The Heaven and Earth Generals are likely at the metamorphosis level. The Yellow General should be at least peak Nova. There’s also vast sums of powerhouses in his household and the various resident experts that he hosts!”

She’d succeeded on a fluke, only getting away because the duke had thought she was not long for this world and did not want to pay a bigger price. But if they went back for the other boot... he would likely bring everything he had to bear!

Li Hao found the assessment quite regretful—he really did want to take the other boot now! If just one could instantly propel one over a thousand meters, then wouldn’t the full pair manage two thousand or even three thousand meters?

Powerhouses were very capable, but there weren’t many who could catch up if one flew out thousands of meters in a split second.

“Don’t underestimate this family.” Hong Yitang was also speechless at Li Hao’s proposal. “They have two hundred years worth of foundation to draw from, don’t think to counter with your long-vanished clan. They’ve stood strong for two hundred years and are still a force to be reckoned with after the rise of the supernatural. They’ve hidden much more strength than you can imagine!

“The east is almost the sole domain of the Xus and the three great organizations somewhat rely on their support as well... You’ve got to wait if you want to seize the remaining boot!”

As for how long? Hong Yitang felt that it wouldn’t be long under current circumstances. Silver Moon might clash with various sides before long.

“Let’s go, we shouldn’t linger here. They might lob a dozen city annihilation missiles at us. This is a very dangerous place to be. As for dark energy, we’ll find a place to slowly process it!” Hong Yitang didn’t want to remain on the scene any longer. It was one thing to be bold when one’s skill was superb, but there was no need to court death. If their enemies decided to fire a dozen missiles that were all as powerful as the one that Fan Chang had thrown out before... he wouldn’t be able to withstand the barrage either.

One missile was manageable, if a dozen... He’d die all the same. Although Hong Yitang wasn’t certain of how strong city annihilation missiles were, they wouldn’t be weak, empty casings.

As much as Light Sword needed dark energy, she could only follow other people’s lead at the moment. The trio swiftly departed with Panther and vanished among the North Sea.

It wasn\'t until long after they left that people carefully came by to investigate the premises. They heaved sighs of relief to see that the area was clear. The current North Sea didn’t wish for these fiends to stay here indefinitely. It was a chaotic enough world outside. If their home grew disorganized, the North Sea would be in complete confusion.

......

A piece of news shook the entire dynasty not only after Li Hao and the others left. It was very secret, but soon became broad knowledge among the upper echelon of power. It came from none other than Red Moon.

Perhaps the changes in Li Hao had provoked some people, or perhaps the might of Silver Moon martial masters was too humiliating for someone, particularly after Black Widow was taught a lesson. Whatever it was, news spread that the sword of the Lis could suppress and seal. Simply put, organs that were in danger of shattering could be quieted by the sword of the Lis and even strengthened.

Light Sword and Earthturner Sword were so brazen in utilizing their battle strength because the young man was available to heal them. Yuan Shuo’s ruptured heart was also repaired because of the sword. Not only that, but Hou Xiaochen’s earlier battle and Silver Moon’s latest stirrings were all due to Li Hao. These people were completely unrestrained because of the young man and the presence of the sword!

Sealed Silver Moon heavyweights were at most the equivalent of metamorphosis, no more. Some weaker ones didn’t even reach that level. All of these people were solidly stronger than Nova because of Li Hao! So long as the young man remained alive and the sword in his hands, Silver Moon would be invincible. They could not be provoked!

......

The news spread quickly.

The nine ministries, three great organizations, seven divine mountains, and various clans all received word from Red Moon. The missive spoke of the uses of the divine sword of the Lis. It was effective for martial masters and even more so for supernaturals!

Why hadn’t any supernaturals ascended above Nova yet?

Or one should say, they possibly existed, but none dared show their face in public or take action because their organs weren’t strong. For a supernatural to reach above Nova, they needed to undo their sixth supernatural lock. Apart from the four of the limbs and one of the body for their attribute, the sixth lock usually meant a second one of the organs.

That led to conflicts between two elements and possibly even explosion of the organs!

Other than those who blazed another trail, such as heavyweights who shattered a lock of the head, the rest had to follow the known path of breaking a second lock among the organs.

Everyone had to proceed that way!

Thus, it wasn’t groundless speculation when the report said that the sword of the Lis could possibly resolve the greatest trouble facing the supernaturals at the moment. All that remained to be seen if Light Sword survived her escape, if Earthturner Sword remained injured. That was easily verified!

Light Sword had broken five supernatural locks. If even she lived, then what wouldn’t be proven with Li Hao’s appearance? Everything was substantiated!

That would also swiftly turn Silver Moon into a land of extreme danger. Silver Moon martial masters could unseal themselves with abandon, raising them above Nova and killing large sums of supernatural powerhouses!

The news shook all of the senior executives of the dynasty.

......

Li Hao and the others were yet to receive the information, but it was already raising waves throughout the land.

In the central region.

Hou Xiaochen had just accepted the position of Skystar commander when he received the report. He looked blankly at the missive and stared in a certain direction. “Ying Hongyue!” he said with a sigh after a long pause. Silver Moon martial masters knew Silver Moon martial masters the best! Fortresses fell from inside jobs.

Outsiders didn’t know the specifics of martial masters or whether or not there was anything special about Silver Moon martial masters. Ying Hongyue, however, was well aware of the particulars. Not only that, but he’d always been devoted to the matter of the eight bloodlines.

People would come to the correct conclusion on their own if they carefully investigated what Ying Hongyue revealed, even though some of it was speculation or purposefully planted to frame his target.

Just as Hou Xiaochen once rigged the situation against Ying Hongyue, Li Hao now became the thorn in the side of all non-Silver-Moon martial masters. If they wished to take the province, they needed to kill him first, no matter the price!

It wasn’t just to kill Li Hao, but they had to do so for the sword of the Lis. This was a weapon that could shatter their obstacles and break through beyond Nova. It could repair their organs and suppress the rampaging of their internal energy!

Hou Xiaochen took a deep breath. The situation was vastly different from before.

“Li Hao... was too blatant...” Hou Xiaochen guessed that it was Kong Jie and the others who asked Li Hao to take action. It should not have taken shape this way, but even they likely hadn’t anticipated that the young man would reveal himself in front of so many, directly save Light Sword, and bring Earthturner Sword with him. They’d probably thought that he would take action in secret and have her hide for a period of time.

That was very difficult now. It was no longer the matter of a single treasure, but an issue that was relevant to the entire supernatural domain. It had to do with future supremacy, so Li Hao abruptly became a delicious morsel in the eyes of many.

Whoever killed Li Hao would win the world!

While the slogan had not yet taken form, many people were probably already forming this thought.

“Not bad... Ying Hongyue...” A solemn Hou Xiaochen looked into the distance, then at the north. He trusted that it would not be a quiet day in Skystar Dynasty. Everyone would be swiftly investigating the truth of the matter!

While most in the ruins had been killed, some had still made it out alive—Qi Gang, Hu Qingfeng, those of the Skystar Troops, He Yong... Although these people may not reveal what they knew, they would surely speak of something. Putting the pieces together might expose the truth of the expedition to others.

Added to that Light Sword and Earthturner Sword’s condition, everyone would soon verify what they’d received. Though Red Moon’s report might be populated mostly by speculation, it made a lot of sense regardless. The originator was also most familiar with the eight families and wouldn’t reveal fake news for no reason at all.

Ying Hongyue’s intentions were very clear. It was a blatant plot similar to what Hou Xiaochen had pulled off. Are you tempted? Do you want to seize the sword? Do you guys want to conquer Silver Moon?

If you do, go to Li Hao! Kill him and take the sword!

As for whether or not it could be used without him, how would one know without trying? If they couldn’t, it was still better to bury the sword than to let Silver Moon have it. If Silver Moon martial masters started unsealing themselves without reservation, it would spell disaster for the rest of the dynasty!
