Chapter 406: Rumors Of The Tyrannical Queens Amusement


    Compete against the Qilin Martial Emperor?


    Chen Mo thought that he had misheard and seriously looked at Xiao Mohe''s face. No matter how he looked at her, the Heaven Devouring Demon King was straight-faced, very serious-looking.


    "I am not joking." Xiao Bore''s brows rose.


    "You aren''t? Then you feel I can face the Qilin Martial Emperor?" Chen Mo seriously asked.


    "Of course that is impossible." Xiao Bore instantly answered.


    Chen Mo nodded. This reply was a bit unexpected. Among the Sixteen Star Marquis, Qilin Martial Emperor Liu Che was ranked fifth. Her Realm was unimaginable, and her subordinate Qilin Pavilion''s Eleven Officials were all very renowned. Each of the Star Generals in the Qilin Pavilion were famous existences in any Star Field.


    There were few among the Sixteen Star Marquis themselves who couldpare to her, let alone that he himself was still Earthly Immortal right now. Even a Lord Of Heaven would be hard-pressed. Xiao Mohe herself could not possibly be a match for Qilin Martial Emperor.


    "Bore, is there something on your mind?" Chen Mo knew that Xiao Mohe would not speak without thinking.


    "Once every decade or so, Qilin Martial Emperor Liu Hongyu will host a qilin huntingpetition at the Western Fields at the end of autumn. For thispetition, all of Star World''s capable cultivators and Star Generals wille to hunt qilin, and they may spar with Qilin Martial Emperor. If you can y a qilin, then that would be enormously beneficial to you."


    "Qilin?" Chen Mo was startled.


    Qilin were Holy Beasts. In Star World, they were categorized as the pinnacle of Spirit Beasts, positioned above the Four Holy Beasts. Among the Primordial Star Names, the strongest martial general had a nickname originating from the qilin. Liu Che''s Qilin Martial Emperor nickname was rumored to havee about from her hunting a qilin when her Star Name was still very young. She obtained the qilin''s power, and her martial arts ascended to saint-level. Thus, she was called Qilin Martial Emperor.


    Liu Che exemplified her own Star Name,unching the Yuanshou Qilin Hunt¹petition, something that Chen Mo did not expect.


    "Does Liu Che actually have any qilin left? Would the Central Star Field stay unconcerned?" Chen Mo did not dare believe this. Qilin were an auspicious sign. Whenever a qilin appeared, there would inevitably be good fortune, yet the Martial Emperor surprisingly treated them as the hunt''s quarry.


    As expected of the fifth Star Marquis. This situation really was atrocious.


    "Of course they are not genuine qilin." Xiao Mohe said: "When a Holy Beast like the qilin appears, the Central Star Field absolutely will not allow a Star Marquis to treat them as prey for a hunt or amusement."


    "Then what is it?"


    "Liu Hongyu uses other Spirit Beasts as substitutes, but they are also Holy Beast level,parable to a qilin."


    "What Holy Beast. It couldn''t be a phoenix or True Dragon, right?" Chen Mo improperly said.


    "Jian Bing!"²


    "Jian Bing?" Chen Mo was taken aback: "You refer to the White Tiger of the Four Symbols?"³


    "The very same." Xiao Mohe walked towards the forest.


    Chen Mo stuck beside her, enduring the surges in his heart, "You''re saying the Qilin Martial Emperor uses the White Tiger as stand-in for qilin, that it serves as the Yuanshou''s prey?"


    "Yes. This White Tiger has surrendered to the Qilin Martial Emperor for nearly eight centuries already. It has always acted as the Yuanshou Competition''s prey for her amusement. You cultivate the Book Of Changes ck Turtle, and the sword chant you practice should be the "Without Ultimate Primordial Dual Modes Four Symbols Sword,'' correct?" Xiao Mohe stopped and faintly nced at him. Then, she said: "Seven Astral Stones have already formed inside the Four Symbols White Tiger''s eight hundred year old body. If you y the White Tiger, not only can youplete your Book Of Changes, you can also forge the second of your Four Symbols Flying Swords."


    The Heaven Devouring Demon King''s analysis left Chen Mo with no way to retort.


    "Am I capable of killing the White Tiger right now?" Chen Mo''s heart was not at allfortable.


    "En. Jian Bing has been kept by Liu Hongyu for several centuries, and it is already in its twilight years. Rumor has it that the Qilin Martial Emperor has already nned to kill the White Tiger. Given your current strength, killing it should not be too difficult."


    Chen Mo shook his head.


    "Are you not confident?" Xiao Mohe''s tone already contained slight killing intent. She had not forgotten the promise for her apaniment.


    Chen Mo said: "The Qilin Martial Emperor has already held the ‘Yuanshou'' for six to seven hundred years. I fear it won''t be so easy to kill."


    "But of course. The so-called ‘Yuanshou'' is a qilin huntingpetition on the surface. In truth, this is nothing more than a trick for her to hunt other Star Generals. In the past, innumerable Star Generals attended the Yuanshou, with many of them being top-notch martial generals. The Qilin Pavilion''s officials also participate in the contest. The previous generation Xiao Mohe''s Star Name perished during the Yuanshou. However, this is indeed an opportunity. If you can kill the White Tiger during the Yuanshou, you will be like a tiger that has grown wings. This will be very good for your odds of victory in thepetition against the Nine Elders Of Sui."


    Xiao Mohe finished her opinion, and her gaze coldly stared at him.


    Chen Mo was practically unable to find grounds to refuse her. Whether it was the White Tiger Flying Swords or the Book Of Changes White Tiger, he presently was in dire need of them. "Since you said so I''ll go try it."


    "Then you had best set out immediately. ording to what I know, thest chance to qualify for entry into the Yuanshoupetition is in seven days at the Qilin Star Kingdom''s main Star Field, the Qilin Star Field. You can still make it if you hurry." Xiao Mohe was stern.


    "I''ll speak briefly with Senior Sister. Right, are you participating in this Yuanshou with me?" Chen Mo thought that if he had the Heaven Devouring Demon King''s help, then the odds of obtaining the White Tiger would sharply increase.


    Very obviously, Xiao Mohe had no ns at all to wade into these muddy waters. "I have already attended the Yuanshou once in the past. I will not participate in this one. I will wait for you at Mount Hua. If you want to be strong, if you want to be capable of facing Yang Su, then you mustplete this Yuanshou on your own."


    "Cough…Very well." Chen Mo nodded, not in despair.


    After receiving information from Heaven Devouring Demon King Xiao Bore regarding the "Yuanshou Qilin Hunt," Chen Mo returned to the Verse Pavilion to exin matters to his senior sister, but he did not mention at all that he was participating in the qilin hunt.


    Killing the Spirit Beast that the Qilin Martial Emperor had raised was undoubtedly stealing food from the tiger''s den. It would be far more dangerous than these Five Emperors. If word got out, this would instead make Senior Sister worry even more. Chen Mo found an excuse of preparing to go to other Star Fields to seek experience for training and casting an Astral Treasure. Jiang Yuezhuo did not appear to doubt him. Furthermore, the girl and Mi Fu were currently putting forth all their strength into restoring the Orchid Pavilion True Work.


    By the time Chen Mo returned, there should have been enough time to assemble the thousand inscription fragments.


    Just like this, after preparing, Chen Mo bade farewell to his senior sister and began a solitary journey towards the Qilin Star Kingdom.


    "Sister Yuezhuo, he''s about to do something risky again, won''t you stop him?" Mi Fu anxiously asked. Chen Mo''s thoughts did not escape the two perceptive girls. From that moment Xiao Mohe visited the Verse Pavilion, the Heaven Devouring Demon King''s shadow was like a haze, bringing obscurity.


    Jiang Yuezhuo gently closed her eyes. She did not answer.


    Mount Hua.


    The year-endpetition with the Sui Ye Star Kingdom was already drawing ever closer. Li Xiao and the others were still wildly beating gongs and drums making every sort of preparation. Lu Xiujing left Mount Hua and was nowhere to be seen. The Red Fragrant Child also meticulously practiced her boxing technique. Early morning each day, the girl''s shouts could be heard, powerful and resonating. Although her Realm was so weak, with Sun Yingmeng maintaining doubts about her performance, she could not help but be unable to suppress the stirring in her heart from that Red Fragrant Child''s dedication.


    Of course, Sun Yingmeng was not idle. Everyday at Mount Hua, she gathered herbs and concocted every kind of medicinal soup to raise their Realms. She was feeding Four Opposites Soup to Li Xiao practically everyday.


    Li Xiao''s Realm also reached the critical point of Heavenly Spirit Three Cmities.


    "Ai."


    Sun Yingmeng''s hands propped up her chin, staring nkly at the boiling cauldron.


    "Mengmeng, are you in heat?" Li Xiao hefted her spear and sauntered in.


    Sun Yingmeng cast her a sideling nce: "Did you losepletely to Sister Shanxue again?" These days, other than increasing their Realm, Li Xiao would spar with Gao Shanxue whenever she had the chance. Gao Shanxue possessed powerful spearmanship, which was very beneficial for bolstering Li Xiao''s martial arts. Li Su''s Innate Skill was "Double Long Spears," but to train both the Snowy Night Milky Way Spear and the Crimson Blood Flying Serpent Spear at the same time was not very easy.


    The properties of the two spears inhibited one another, unlike regr twin spears. However, if they were able to bebined perfectly, Li Xiao felt that facing the weakest of the Nine Elders Of Sui would not necessarily be out of the question.


    "What were you sighing about just now?" Li Xiao had an expression that said, <i>I won''t let you change the topic, I saw you sigh in longing.</i>


    "Die already, useless thoughts!" Sun Yingmeng spat.


    "What?" Li Xiao was temporarily confused.


    "Everyday, I brew medicine like this, feeling as dead as a walking corpse." For the first time, Sun Yingmeng felt restless from being unable to do anything.


    "You''re a spiritual energy Star General, leave the fighting and killing to me." Li Xiao smiled: "Besides, your medicinal soups are one of a kind in Star World. If not for the ‘True Martial Soup'' you refined, how could I be able to fight Gao Shanxue everyday?"


    "Even Lu Xiujing has descended Mount Hua. Little Junior Sister Red Fragrant Child is also training very meticulously, and her boxing is bing more and more proficient. Last time I peeked, I couldn''t beat her." For a moment, Sun Yingmeng felt defeated. She was but the King Of Medicine, yet she did not have even the slightest capacity for self-preservation.


    "You aren''t Heavenly Star yet. Once you are, when the timees, it will be my turn to envy you…Earthly Pearl Star King Of Medicine Sun Simiao." Li Xiao pursed her lips.


    "In reality, I also want to go out for experience." Sun Yingmeng finally blurted out her thoughts.


    "Where do you want to go? I can apany you." Before Li Xiao could make a solemn vow, a cold and detached voice interrupted. The two girls looked to see an extremely tall and haughty woman walk over. Clutched at her chest was a downcast white fox.


    "Sister Milu." Sun Yingmeng giggled.


    "Isn''t Sister Miluprehending the Daoist Mind with the Ancestor? How does she have time toe out?" Li Xiao curiously asked.


    "Daji is feeling unwell." Li Milu stroked the white fox somewhat tenderly. "I would like you to examine her."


    Sun Yingmeng nced over and smiled: "Sister Milu, no need to worry too much. Daji is preparing to grow her fifth tail."


    "Fifth tail? So soon?"


    "En. I told Chen Mo before. Daji''s internal qi is obstructed and requires medicinal soup to clear the blockage, yet he didn''t care at all. As it so happens, the ce I want to go to has some Spirit Medicines that can be refined to help Daji pass through the difficult part. Once the miasma in Daji''s body is dispelled, the process will be even faster." Sun Yingmeng proudly said.


    "Where to?"


    "Green Mound Ancient Valley."


    "En, I will listen to everything you say."


    Sun Yingmeng stroked Daji''s soft fur, "Hm, hm, when Chen Moes back, he''ll definitely be shocked at Mount Hua''s changes."


    Li Xiao disagreed: "If only he isn''t goofing off outside."


    "Chen Mo probably wouldn''t. If he learned about the Qilin Martial Emperor, perhaps he would go attend the Yuanshou." Sun Yingmeng said.


    Li Xiao was taken aback. She shook her head. "If this is the case, I''d rather he go sightseeing instead."


    Sun Yingmeng thought so as well. The "Yuanshou" was an event the tyrannical Qilin Martial Emperor Liu Hongyu used to obtain medicines. The endings of Star Generals and cultivators who wanted to hunt "qilin" in the past were all very unsightly. If Chen Mo attended, he would likely die without a corpse to bury.


    Sun Yingmeng opened the boiling cauldron. The aroma of the freshly brewed Four Opposites Soup was strong, bearing the air of the Cherished Spirit Drops, making the girl instantly recall that scene from back when she was harvesting in the mist.


    "I wonder what Chen Mo is doing."


    The Earthly Pearl Star suddenly missed this man a bit.<ol><li> 元狩獵麒麟 ?</li><li> 監兵 ?</li><li> Basically, it''s the same level as his ck Turtle. ?</li></ol>
