Chapter 2368 Evil Sword
Han Sen coughed awkwardly to fill the silence.
Have you tried using your little sword to fix the situation? Han Sen suddenly realized he was talking about Ning Yues little sword, and he quickly shook his head to get rid of the thought.
Ning Yue looked at him strangely and said, I have tried everything! Ive tried destroying it and throwing it away. Ive even tried selling it. No matter what I do, my body remains like this. And whenever I go to sleep, the thing is lying on my chest when I wake up.
It looks like this is an evil sword... What are you going to do? Han Sen knew Ning Yue was a very decisive guy. He wouldnt have contacted Han Sen just to share some idle gossip.
The little green sword came from a mine in a xenogeneic space. So, I went back there and searched Hell Kings place. I didnt find much. While the mine was mostly a dead end, I did discover something interesting. The Hell were under the control of another race, and this master race had given them the job of running the mining operations. Building palaces and statues was just a cover-up; their real purpose was getting to what was under the mines.
After pausing, Ning Yue went on to say, In order to figure out this green sword, we have to start with the mine.
It will be best if you leave the xenogeneic space for now, Han Sen said.
Im on a planet belonging to the Thousand Treasures. Before I left, I erased all traces of my presence there, Ning Yue said.
Do you know who was behind all this? Han Sen asked.
I dont know. I only discovered that a master race was controlling the Hell by piecing together all the information I could find. There is no evidence to back this up. Ning Yue shook his head.
Han Sen was silent for a moment. Give me some time. Im currently having some trouble of my own, and I cannot leave the Extreme King just yet. If you wait for me, I will find a way to contact you once I get out of here.
Okay. Ning Yue didnt say much after that. They arranged a few more details and then hung up.
Han Sens face was twitching. He wanted to laugh, but he couldnt.
Luckily, Ning Yue was a calm man who took misfortunes in stride. If the same thing had happened to Han Sen, it would have driven him crazy.
Han Sen brought out a galaxy map belonging to the Extreme King and looked up the xenogeneic space Ning Yue had mentioned. It wasnt listed. He also searched for the system that xenogeneic space supposedly resided in. The system belonged to a small race under the authority of Sky Palace. The race was so small that they were virtually unknown.
It looks like it doesnt have anything to do with this small race. Not many people know about that xenogeneic space, clearly. Han Sen then thought to himself, The Hell and the faction behind this are very secretive. This cannot be their territory. Perhaps they arent allied with Sky Palace, and that is why they operated this mine in secret. If they are hesitant to re-enter that xenogeneic space, Ning Yue and I might have a chance.
As he considered his options, Han Sen started to develop a headache. The biggest problem right now was his inability to leave the Extreme King. Miss Mirror wouldnt let him go free.
Han Sens limited power was a problem. Deified xenogeneics could be dug up from the ground in that place, and he didnt have enough power to deal with one if they discovered it. If he wanted to go there, he would have to take the little red bird. Otherwise, things could go horribly wrong if they stumbled across another elite.
If he ended up attracting something awful like Ning Yue had, Han Sen wondered what might happen. The mere thoughts he conjured were enough to give him the chills. His skull felt downright numb.
Still, Ning Yue isnt the sort of person to rush into something. Hell be fine waiting. I should really just focus on my current situation before doing anything more. Han Sen frowned as he thought of this.
He and Lan Haixin sorted out a time to meet. He wanted to see this relic she spoke of. If he was able to claim it, it might provide a grand boost for his power.
Even if Lan Haixin nabbed it, she was Bai Yis wife. Han Sen would be the one to help her with the relic, so surely he would get something out of the deal.
Han Sen decided that going with Lan Haixin and the others wouldnt be a bad idea, so he wasnt to upset about being dragged along. In fact, he found himself rather curious.
He had little time before they went to see the relic. Instead of going to Kings Garden on that day, he studied the secrets of the Dongxuan Sutra at home. The Dongxuan Sutra was different from other geno arts. Even if he leveled up, he still had to understand how to use his developing powers. They werent skills he could just use right away.
Han Sen knew basically nothing about the elemental body of the Dongxuan Sutra. It was similar to the Dongxuan Aura, but he could tell that there were some important differences. Han Sen now had to figure out what it was exactly.
He also spent some time studying the Move Mountain Sea Conch beast soul, which he found quite interesting. The blue light it cast was amazing, but when it was cast upon creatures, it didnt have a direct effect. After a few days of investigating, Han Sen discovered something. He understood the true way to make use of the Move Mountain king area.
Outside Underwater Towns palace, the Siren nobles gathered together. There was a surprising number of them, probably two hundred in all. There were five King class Sirens and one that was half-deified.
Lan Haixin was King class. The remnants of the Siren race werent too shabby, but they wouldnt work for Han Sen. They only followed the commands of Lan Haixin.
Bai Yi was the last generation of the virgins blood, and he was Lan Haixins husband. But as far as those Sirens were concerned, he was nothing.
If Han Sen hadnt made an impressive amount of progress in recent times, they would still be looking at him with disdain.
Lan Haixin brought Baoer to the front of the line. Seeing Han Sen and the blood kirin approach, Baoer looked terrified. She hid behind Lan Haixin and tugged at her clothes.
Dont be afraid. Big Sister is here. I wouldnt let anyone hurt you, Lan Haixin said soothingly, lowering herself to hug Baoer.
Such a talented actress... It really is a waste that she hasnt taken up a career in acting. Han Sen wanted to cry at the sight. Baoer was way too good. If he didnt know the real Baoer, he would have been completely fooled.
Han Sen chuckled coldly and looked at Baoer. Dont forget that she is my daughter. I am warning you. Do not touch Baoer. You wont be able to withstand the consequences of my anger.
Seeing that Baoer was still pretending to be scared and hiding behind her, Lan Haixin stared at Han Sen and said, Okay. But you arent taking her with you. She isnt one of the Siren.
Han Sen looked at Baoer and licked his lips.
We are going. We cannot leave her here. Dont worry, she wont affect us. Lan Haixin pulled Baoer forward and ignored Han Sen.
Han Sen shrugged and rode after her on the blood kirin.
The Siren were queuing in the rear, all of them looking quite excited. They were looking forward to what came next.
Prince, can I stay behind? Lilly stood behind Han Sen and quietly asked for permission.
You dont want to go? Han Sen looked at Lilly strangely.
Lilly started to answer, but suddenly, an old female Siren next to Lan Haixin hissed, This is a big day for the Siren, and all of us need to go. Unless youre not one of us?
Lilly was shocked, and she wrapped her arms defensively around her own body. She lowered her head and didnt say anything.
