“This time he lost one arm, his vital energy greatly damaged. Within one year he is absolutely no threat.” Shui Gu said to the crowd, a smile also touching the corner of his mouth. Being able to wound his lifelong enemy to this extent vented a bellyful of bad air from his heart.
Shui Gu looked at Ye Chu, then glanced at Bai Qingqing. He did not know how this graceful and elegant woman had ended up with Ye Chu.
When Bai Qingqing saw Shui Gu looking at her, she frowned slightly. Then she said to Ye Chu, “Remember what you said. Within one year you will not disturb me!”
“Hey! Our condition was that if you could kill him only then would it be so, but you only broke his arm. You completely did not accomplish it, I…”
Ye Chu still wanted to continue speaking, but Bai Qingqing paid no attention to Ye Chu. She transformed into a white fox, submerged into Ye Chu’s embrace, and nestled in Ye Chu’s dantian to begin sleeping. Ye Chu’s words came out rattling like firecrackers, but the other party turned a deaf ear.
“…” Seeing this situation, Ye Chu could not help muttering in a low voice, “Women are all liars!”
The few people had long known Ye Chu’s temperament, so naturally they would not pay attention to Ye Chu’s muttering. They only looked at Ye Chu’s embrace, everyone’s expressions strange.
“This kid really has good luck with women. Even an absolutely extraordinary woman like Bai Qingqing is willing to be in his embrace.”
“Do not look at me with such eyes. It makes me feel you are **!” Ye Chu stared at the few people and said, “Why did you suddenly come to the Red Dust Domain? And came looking for me?”
Ou Yi took out a mirror, looking himself up and down while saying, “Many people from Bu Luo Mountain came to the Red Dust Domain, so naturally we had to fight our way over. We happened to run into that wench Ye Jingyun on the road, who said you were here. So we came to take a look. But we truly did not expect, you really have tremendous guts, even daring to provoke the Heavenly Mansion!”
Ye Chu shrugged his shoulders and said, “Do you think I wanted to provoke them? It is just that others provoked me first, and I am fearless that is all. You would not let people say Wu Xin Peak fears the Heavenly Mansion, right?”
“I do know why you are so bold. Having the descendant of the Fox Mountain Supreme, at the very least it can guarantee your safety.” Shui Gu said, “This time you did very well. Being able to leave him one arm, haha, after one year I will certainly surpass him.”
Ye Chu also paid no attention to this madman Shui Gu, turning instead to Jin Wawa and saying, “What is the relationship between the Tool Sect and you? He asked me to pass on a message to you, the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking is about to open!”
“Hmph!” Jin Wawa snorted and said, “He still has a few ounces of conscience!”
“He has grievances with you?” Ye Chu asked curiously.
Jin Wawa did not answer Ye Chu, turning instead to Shui Gu and saying, “It seems the news of the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking is known to everyone. We still thought only we knew.”
“You came for the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking?” Ye Chu finally understood why these few people had come to the Red Dust Domain. “What is this Heavenly Mechanism Ranking thing, that makes you all make such a fuss!”
“A ranking that gathers outstanding people, promising talents who have hope of contending on the path to the Supreme.” Shui Gu looked at Ye Chu and said, “Speaking of which, you too will have a place on it.”
“Hm?” Ye Chu did not understand.
“Whenever a prosperous age arrives, the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking will reappear in the world. Upon it will appear the names of one outstanding person after another. Every single one possesses heaven defying talent and terrifying combat power.” Shui Gu said, “This generation can be considered a prosperous age. Descendants of the myriad races are constantly appearing. Their appearance will also cause the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking to reappear in the world. And every time the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking reappears in the world, it will inevitably cause a bloodbath.”
“How so?” Ye Chu asked in confusion.
“The people who appear on the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking, every single one is an outstanding figure among their kind, with hope of becoming an absolute powerhouse or even a Supreme. And almost every outstanding person has an origin, someone like you who appears is extremely rare! And how many grievances exist between the myriad races? The appearance of outstanding people on the ranking will naturally cause a new round of grievances and vengeful killings. It will inevitably stir up a bloodbath!”
“For example, if Jin Wawa appears on the ranking, Jin Wawa’s enemies from back then will definitely think of every possible way to kill Jin Wawa, not letting him rise.”
“This is the first point. The second point is that people on the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking have hope of aspiring to the Supreme position. Who is willing to see a Supreme appear above their head? So they too will think of every possible way to kill these promising people.”
Ye Chu somewhat understood, nodding his head and saying, “Then why do you say I too have hope of having a place on the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking? My strength truly has improved these past few years, but the distance from you all is still too great. There are countless strong people in the world. Just those I have encountered, I do not know how many are stronger than me. It would not be my turn even if we went round and round.”
Shui Gu said, “The Heavenly Mechanism Ranking is divided into several rankings. The very top few rankings naturally belong to those who possess Laws. But below this there are still several rankings. One is the Profound Ancient Realm outstanding people ranking, one is the Sovereign ranking, and one is the King ranking. Your strength should be able to have a place on the Sovereign ranking. It is just that rankings below Laws are not eye catching. Before you reach Laws, you do not need to worry too much.”
“Does the Heavenly Mechanism Ranking possess such divine power? Can it account for every single strong person?” Ye Chu asked curiously.
“It may not necessarily be able to account for every single strong person, but it can account for seventy to eighty percent. The Heavenly Mechanism Ranking is a divine object of the Heavenly Mechanism Gate, and the Heavenly Mechanism Gate is most skilled in the art of deduction and prediction. The things they predict, eight or nine times out of ten are correct. It is precisely because of this that it possesses such illustrious renown!” Shui Gu said to Ye Chu, “For the time being you do not need to pay too much attention to these. What is most important to you is to quickly raise your strength. Among those on Wu Xin Peak, let us not speak of Xi Xi, but you are truly too weak.”
Ye Chu smiled bitterly, also unable to say anything. Compared to ordinary people, he was not bad. But among the most outstanding talents, he still had a long road to walk.
“However, being able to walk to this step in just a few years is also truly not easy!” Shui Gu looked at Ye Chu, “But you must also understand, you possess Supreme Will. If your growth is slow, the price you pay will be death.”
“I know!” Ye Chu nodded and said, “If there is baleful aura for me to cultivate with, my improvement will be faster!”
“Speaking of baleful aura, there is still another purpose for coming to the Red Dust Domain this time.” Shui Gu paused, then stared straight at Ye Chu and said, “We have news regarding your constitution!”
“What?” Ye Chu’s eyes widened, suddenly standing straight, looking straight at Shui Gu, “You know what my constitution is?”
This had always been a question that plagued Ye Chu. Regarding his constitution, he had always wanted to figure it out, because knowing his own constitution would allow better cultivation, rather than being like now, a blind man groping an elephant.
“What is my constitution?” Ye Chu’s breathing grew heavy.
“I do not know!”
“Damn! You are playing me!” Ye Chu was furious, staring dead at Shui Gu.
“Although it is not clear, I do know who it is related to!”
“Who?”
Shui Gu’s pair of eyes looked straight at Ye Chu. His lips opened and closed, spitting out a name that shook Ye Chu until his scalp went numb.
