Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 75 Reclusive Elders

Since the day Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai left, the important officials of the Evil Yang Tribe and the Crown Prince had been waiting for the news of victory. Therefore, as soon as the news of the return of the two top masters came, they immediately rushed to the Gold Yang Hall, looking forward to their good news.

In their opinion, since the powerful Patriarch and the Highest Elder were taking action together, who had planned so carefully and had the help of a spy, the Nine Spirits Tribe would definitely be captured easily.

However-

To everyone’s surprise, after these two experts returned, they weren’t as happy as the tribesmen had imagined, and they didn’t mention their attack at all. This caused the tribesmen to be extremely bewildered.

At the same time, they found that there was a stranger, Ding Hao, behind the Patriarch.

What surprised them was that the Patriarch and the Highest Elder were extremely respectful to this man. It seemed that they did not dare to neglect him at all. Even though those tribesmen were curious about the identity of Ding Hao, they did not dare to ask because the Patriarch did not mention it.

When Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai returned to the tribe, the first thing they did was not talk about the tribe. Instead, they took Ding Hao to the royal library of the Evil Yang Tribe, leaving only the Crown Prince and the important officials with stunned looks on their faces.

After arriving at the royal library of the Evil Yang Tribe, Ding Hao entered it with Evil Moon, while Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai did not go in. Instead, they called a guard to stay there and wait for Ding Hao to come out. Then, the two of them left.

Since Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai did not know the relevant scrolls, Ding Hao could only search for them alone with Evil Moon in the vast library.

With their first experience, Evil Moon seemed very calm this time and was not too agitated. In the end, after reading countless ancient books, it finally helped Ding Hao find a scroll similar to the ancient scroll of the Nine Spirits Tribe.

Ding Hao was overjoyed. He took the scroll and quickly flipped through it. When he saw the information inside, his joy grew even stronger.

Seeing this, Evil Moon knew that it had found the right scroll. It could not help but show off again and ask Ding Hao for a reward.

Because this scroll did record some clues, and it was about the origin of the Huge Head Planet. Ding Hao was happy, and he didn’t hesitate to take out something that made Evil Moon drool and reward it.

After that, he looked at the scroll.

According to this scroll, Ding Hao finally learned that the mysterious Huge Head Planet had been a supreme being when he was alive. For some reason, he had died, his head was left here, and other parts were missing. After countless years, there were gradually living creatures living on it.

“It’s a supreme being!

“He died!”

Although Ding Hao had already guessed it, he could not help but be shocked by the information in the scroll. “This vast planet with many regions is really formed by a living creature!

“This is truly too incredible!”

Ding Hao was shocked, but at the same time, he felt regretful once more.

This scroll was still incomplete, just like the previous one. There were still some numbers marked at the end, but there was no other information that was worth Ding Hao paying attention to.

After finding the scroll, Ding Hao naturally would not stay here any longer. After putting it away, he walked out of the library with Evil Moon, whose mouth was still full of food.

Outside the library.

“Your Excellency, please come this way…” The guard, who had been waiting here for a day and a night, immediately led Ding Hao respectfully to the Gold Yang Hall upon seeing him.

The guard was in front while Ding Hao and Evil Moon were at the back.

Evil Moon moved its throat, swallowed something, and then asked Ding Hao with a voice transmission, “We’ve got the scrolls of the Nine Spirits Tribe and the Evil Yang Tribe. Are we going to the areas of the other eight tribes next?”

Ding Hao was silent for a moment and then replied, “It’s not the right time yet. We still have a problem to solve here.”

“Are you talking about the man who may be Ding Tong?” Evil Moon seemed to be thinking about something. After seeing Ding Hao nod, it continued, “But Xing Mo said that the man who might be Ding Tong just left a few words and gave them two Dark Lotuses just in case before leaving. How can we find him?”

“Since he has left, we’ll ask Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai to get him back…” Ding Hao smiled slightly and then said, “However, this matter is not urgent. Let’s go ask Xing Mo about the scroll.”

While Ding Hao and Evil Moon were talking, the guard had already taken them to the Gold Yang Hall.

“Your Excellency, His Majesty is inside!” The guard pushed the door open, turned around, and left after saying those words to Ding Hao.

After the guard left, Ding Hao and Evil Moon walked in.

As soon as the two of them walked in, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai came to greet them. Xing Mo said with a smile, “Milord, have you found what you were looking for?” Judging from his attitude, he seemed to be very servile.

Standing next to him, Pei Qi’ai also had the same expression on his face, which appeared even more servile.

At this moment, in the Gold Yang Hall, there were only those three men and Evil Moon. If people of the Evil Yang Tribe and even other tribes saw Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai acting like this, they would be so shocked that their jaws would drop.

They would wonder what was wrong with the Patriarch of the Evil Yang Tribe, Xing Mo, and the prestigious Highest Elder.

However, Ding Hao and Evil Moon, who knew the inside story, naturally knew what the two were up to. Instead of being shocked, they showed meaningful smiles.

“Meow, haha, of course, we found it… Well, from the looks of it, you must have put in a lot of effort to break the seal during this day. Tsk tsk, I guess it didn’t work out, haha…” Evil Moon gloated.

Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai showed a trace of embarrassment. When Ding Hao entered the library, they, as Evil Moon had said, tried their best to break the seal. They even thought that as long as they could break the seal, no matter how powerful the man in front of them was, they could kill him as long as they reached Lord Ding.

In just one day and one night, they had tried countless methods and even called some masters of their tribe to help. They didn’t stop until someone said that Ding Hao had gone out of the library and was heading for the Gold Yang Hall. The result made them feel discouraged.

In the end, they could only stop trying and came to flatter Ding Hao, hoping that he would show mercy as soon as possible and unseal the seal in them.

Of course, they surely still wanted to target Ding Hao, but now they were at Ding Hao’s mercy, so they had to lower themselves.

“Let me give you some advice. As the saying goes, let the mischief-maker undo the mischief. Since you have been sealed by my Human Pet, you naturally have no way to unseal it except to have him unseal it. Even Lord Ding, whom you mentioned before, can’t do it.” Evil Moon was very confident in that.

Ding Hao did not speak, but he also looked noncommittal.

“So, you’d better listen to us. Otherwise, in the following days, your cultivation will be ruined.” Evil Moon continued to threaten the two. “If other tribes know about this, I think your whole tribe will be in danger without us doing anything…

“What’s more, there should be no one in your Evil Yang Tribe who can be a match for my Human Pet, meow. Even if that Lord Ding agrees to take action, can you guarantee that he will be the match for my Human Pet?” Seeing that the expressions of Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai changed, Evil Moon showed a triumphant smile and said, “It seems that you have come to your senses. Very good. Remember, if you don’t listen to us well, I can’t guarantee what will happen to your Evil Yang Tribe in the next moment…”

When Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai heard that, their faces changed again. At the same time, they knew that what Fat Cat said was true.

Although the man in front of them seemed to be only at the high level of the Eternal Realm, his strength was extremely terrifying, which was greater than that level. Otherwise, with their strength at the middle level of the Eternal Realm, they would not have fallen to such a state even if they were no match for him. Therefore, they really could not guarantee that Lord Ding would be able to kill this man. If they were not careful, their entire tribe would probably be eliminated.

They didn’t dare to bet on it.

Moreover, Lord Ding was not a member of their Evil Yang Tribe. It was impossible for him to fight for them wholeheartedly.

For various reasons, they no longer dared to target Ding Hao.

Seeing the change in their expressions, Ding Hao knew that from now on, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai would no longer have any thoughts of getting lucky, and he was very satisfied with them.

At the same time, he glanced at Evil Moon and could not help but look at it with appreciation. He secretly transmitted a voice message to it. “Fat Cat, you look quite stupid. I didn’t expect you to say those words. It’s really beyond my expectation!”

Evil Moon raised its nose and looked very proud. It seemed that it didn’t hear what Ding Hao said at the beginning.

Xing Mo sighed in his heart, looked up at Ding Hao, and said with a more sincere attitude, “Milord, is there anything we can do for you?”

Ding Hao nodded, took out the scroll he had just found in their library, threw it to them, and asked at the same time, “What do you know about this scroll?”

After receiving the scroll, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai opened it and scanned it when they heard what Ding Hao said. Xing Mo thought for a moment and said, “This scroll has been stored in our Evil Yang Tribe for generations. We only know that it looks very extraordinary, but we don’t know its use. Over time, we forgot about it. It has been stored in the library and has never been shown to the public.”

After hearing this, Ding Hao remained calm, but he couldn’t help but feel a little regretful, because the answer given by Xing Mo was exactly the same as what the Emperor Emeritus of the Nine Spirits Tribe, Rong Zun, had said.

However, Xing Mo soon gave Ding Hao a glimmer of hope. He said, “Although we don’t know the details of this scroll, maybe some of the reclusive elders in our tribe would know. If you want, we can take you to see them…”

“Reclusive elders?”

“Yes. One of them is the most knowledgeable person in our Evil Yang Tribe. He knows a lot of things that outsiders don’t. Maybe he would know something…” Pei Qi’ai said with a smile.
