King Of Chaos

Chapter 149 Ch 149: A Shocking News

?

Just as Ye Xiao turned to leave, he suddenly felt a slight reaction from a place not far away from the building. He could feel Chaos Energy constantly gathering and compressing.

And it was also at this time Qian Li and others walked out of the building.

"Boom!"

Chaos energy suddenly erupted from that place and in the next moment, a figure suddenly rushed in front of Qian Li at lightning speed.

In that instant, Qian Li's eyes widened, and his pupils shrank. His eyes were filled with surprise and fear, and he punched out instinctively.

However, before this punch could even touch the man's body, it was blocked by the attacker. The attacker was completely prepared. But even so, he was still stunned because Qian Li's reaction was fast. 

Qian Li immediately retreated back and make a safe distance from the attacker.

"Hmm?"

The attacker was obviously stunned for a moment. He seemed to be in a daze. It was as if he had never thought that Qian Li could react so fast.

Swoosh!

The attacker reacted immediately and slashed at Qian Li with a small dagger which produced a crisp sound. It was as if a piece of cloth had been cut open. There seemed to be the sound of flesh and bones being cut apart, but it happened too quickly and he did not have time to hear it.

The next moment, a specific feeling came from his hand. The attacker was surprised to find that his hand that was aimed at Qian Li while holding a dagger had disappeared. His shoulder had been cut off from the joint of the arm and was now bleeding profusely.

It was only at this moment that he understood something.

'Oh, so it was my arm that had been cut off just now.'

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

The attacker let out a miserable howl, but exactly at this moment, his body was suddenly kicked heavily to the ground. The moment his head touched the ground, his life force dissipated and he died.

When this scene suddenly appeared, everyone was shocked. At this moment, people could see a figure holding a blade standing in front of Qian Li. It was this figure who saved Qian Li's life

And this figure was Ye Xiao.

Now, there were a few reasons why Ye Xiao took the initiative to save Qian Li's life.

First of all, he could tell that the attacker was also a member of the Black Wolf Gang from the aura on his body which was very similar to other Black Wolf members' aura.

Second, Qian Li was the son of the City Lord of the East Rising City. It means this person could definitely help Ye Xiao easily locate the East Rising Sect and might even help him enter the sect without any trouble.

After all, in the end, he was just an outsider. If he tried to enter the East Rising Sect on his own, then some people might want to find trouble with him for no reason.

Third and most important, as a son of East Rising City's City Lord, Qian Li must have information about all the overlord forces and important events that might have occurred in the Cloudy Star Region.

Ye Xiao has no intention of asking about that information, but he definitely wants to know something related to the Illusory Spirit Gate during these few years he has been away.

He was only eight when he left the Illusory Spirit Gate and now, he was already fifteen plus. In a few months, he will become 16 years old.

In other words, he has been away from the Illusory Spirit Gate for more than seven years already. Ye Xiao was thinking that his family might be worried about him a lot. After all, he has been away from his family for so many years, and there was no news of him.

Thus, he wanted to know more about the current situation of the Illusory Spirit Gate.

"Thanks for saving me, brother!"

Qian Li finally came back to his senses and immediately expressed his gratitude to Ye Xiao. At the same time, he deeply observed Ye Xiao. From the aura Ye Xiao revealed earlier, he could already tell that Ye Xiao was a Late Stage Chaos Spirit Realm warrior.

A 15 to 16-year-old boy with a cultivation base of Late Stage Chaos Spirit Realm was a shocking matter. Qian Li almost could not believe his eyes. It is mainly because he was only an Early Stage Chaos Spirit Realm warrior and he was already in his mid-twenties.

'The world of geniuses sure is different!'

Qian Li sighed in his heart and started thinking of ways to make friends with Ye Xiao.

On the other hand, Ye Xiao had somewhat the same intention as well. He spoke, "It is nothing much, it was just a small matter."

"How could save my life is a small matter? It is definitely a big matter. You have done a life-saving grace, how could I not repay you? Why don't you come with me?" Qian Li immediately shook his head and spoke.

"This..." Ye Xiao hesitated a little, of course, it was only on the surface. In reality, he did want to go with him.

"There is nothing more to say." Qian Li shook his head and continued to speak, "Let me introduce myself. I am Qian Li, the son of East Rising City's City Lord, Qian Nihu."

"You don't seem to be from the East Rising City. I guess you must have come to my city for some important matter. Why don't you stay at my place for a few days and do what you have come here for? At the same time, I could also help you out!"

After a few seconds, Ye Xiao nodded and then went to the City Lord's mansion with Ye Xiao.

.....

Qian Li brought Ye Xiao to the City Lord's mansion and directly went to meet his father.

Not long after, he found his father inside the guest room, talking about something very important with someone.

The guards stopped Qian Li outside the door and told them that City Lord has ordered them to not allow anyone from going inside, not even Qian Li.

Qian Li and Ye Xiao had no choice but to wait.

Qian Li brought Ye Xiao around the City Lord Mansion, and finally, they ended up in a garden.

Ye Xiao also got the chance to ask an important question.

"Umm, do you know anything about Illusory Spirit Gate?"

"Hmm? Are you a disciple of Illusory Spirit Gate?" Qian Li frowned and asked.

Ye Xiao simply nodded his head. He had no intention of telling Qian Li his true identity. So he pretended to be just a Core Disciple.

"Looks like you've not been in the Cloudy Star Region. Otherwise, you would have known the biggest disaster the Illusory Spirit Gate suffered a year ago!" Qian Li sighed and said something that immediately made Ye Xiao have a bad premonition in his heart.

It could not be helped. The Illusory Spirit Gate is not just an overlord sect but also his family. Just the thought of a disaster made his mind go blank. He could not help but hurriedly asked, "What happened? What exactly happened?"

His voice sounded rushed and his heartbeat had already sped up. He no longer was as calm as before.

Qian Li sighed regretfully and explained, "As a disciple of Illusory Spirit Gate, you must know about Ling Xiaolong, the blessed genius. He is the second person to be blessed by Morning Stars, and his talent is simply too outstanding. He has already overshadowed everyone in the Land of Morning Stars when it comes to talent. When he was just born, he displayed the devouring ability, and a few years later, he displayed an ability to teleport."

"When he was only eight years old, he actually discovered the truth about grand formations in the Ye Family and the secret of Living Flowers. At a very young age, he has already achieved something that countless people could not achieve even after living for thousands of years."

"But one day, he suddenly disappeared after entering the Golden Pagoda of the Ye Family, and a few days later, the Golden Pagoda disappeared as well."

"As a core disciple of Illusory Spirit Gate, you must know all these things, right?"

Qian Li curiously observed Ye Xiao's shocked expression. He could also see deep worry in the depth of his eyes, and could not help but sigh.

Ye Xiao, on the other hand, frowned. He fell in thought as to why Qian Li was telling him about him. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "Could it be, the disaster you spoke of has something to do with Ling Xiaolong?"

Nodding his head, Qian Li finally revealed a shocking truth.

"Yes, it is because of him that the Illusory Spirit Gate suffered a disaster that immediately caused its ranking to fall from the strongest overlord force in the entire Land of Morning Stars to a first or second-rate force."
