Chapter 119 Plundering The Divine Wind Sword From Hong De
[After you crippled Hong De's star cultivation base, you then secretly plundered his Divine Wind Sword star artifact and stored it in your system inventory. If others found out about your ability to plunder star artifacts, you would be persecuted by others since it was a very dangerous ability.]
[After all, having a powerful star artifact would put you in danger if you met someone who could plunder star artifacts. That alone was enough to motivate those top forces to crusade against you and that's the reason why you kept this ability a secret.]
[You had summoned your Nine-Colored Cosmic Sword before to use the concept of severance so that you could sever the connection between Hong De and his star artifact. That would inevitably cause your actions to be seen by the Holy Maiden, Lian Yun, and the rest of the six Revered Constellation protectors that were present.]
[Hence, you had used your absolute mind power to erase their memories of the time you had plundered the Divine Wind Sword star artifact from Hong De. Thus, you managed to keep your ability a secret since there was no way that they could recover the memories you had deleted from their minds.]
[Although there were six Revered Constellations, they weren't stronger than you so even if they were powerful, you could still use your absolute mind power to erase their memories and even make them loyal to you. Your absolute mind power was only effective against slightly weaker opponents and those opponents who are equal to your strength or stronger than you.]
[You couldn't use your absolute mind power to control the minds of the Star Hall Pope and the Grand Priest but since you could use it on these six Revered Constellation powerhouses, you didn't hesitate to use it.]
[Those three Revered Constellations from the Hong Clan could prove to be useful in dealing a substantial blow to the Hong Clan since a Revered Constellation powerhouse was nothing to scoff at. Most star masters couldn't even become an Honored Star let alone a Revered Constellation.]
[After all, not everyone was talented enough to participate in the Star Master Youth Competition and those who participated in it were young geniuses who were at least talented enough to become an Honored Star. Of course, that was assuming that they managed to live long enough to reach it since a genius is only a genius when they aren't dead before they reach their prime.]
[After controlling the minds of the three protectors of Hong De as well as the three protectors of the Holy Maiden, you threw Hong De towards the ground in front of the Holy Maiden.]
[At this moment, Hong De had already passed out due to the pain of having his star cultivation base crippled and his star artifact taken away from him. You didn't worry that they would find out that Hong De's star artifact was removed since Hong De was already a cripple so it was impossible for him to summon his star artifact.]
[Even if by miracle Hong De's star pathways were healed and he was no longer a cripple, that wasn't also a problem since even if that did happen, the Hong Clan would already be destroyed by then.]
[Not to mention, you know how ruthless the Holy Maiden was since she was quite similar to you in regards to some personalities of yours. Although you weren't as power-hungry as the Holy Maiden, but her ruthlessness could still compare to you if she was driven enough to a certain extent.]
[In terms of being ruthless enough in taking revenge, the Holy Maiden could be comparable to you. It was no wonder that she was the daughter of that old hypocrite.]
[After she received Hong De's body, the Holy Maiden slightly lowered her head and bowed, "Thank you for assistance. I won't forget this and I will tell father to reward you."]
[In response, you replied to the Holy Maiden, "Welcome. And there is no need for a reward since what you can get in the Star Hall, I can also get it. After all, you are the Holy Maiden and I am the Holy Son."]
[You added, "However, if I can get a reward from master, please tell him that I would very much appreciate it if my reward is retirement in the Constellation Palace."]
[When the Holy Maiden heard your reward request, she frowned and replied, "That's… a huge request. It's impossible since aside from you, no one is suited and worthy enough to succeed father's position and become the Pope. Even I am not worthy."]
[You didn't expect much since you know that the Star Hall Pope wanted you to succeed him and wouldn't let you retire in the Constellation Palace. At most, you could delay it but if you delayed enough and there wasn't a suitable successor for the Pope position, then the Star Hall Pope could only force you to succeed him.]
[You didn't want your freedom to be restricted in the Star Hall since by becoming the Star Hall Pope, you could barely go outside Star Hall since not only would you be overloaded with work, but also in dealing with the management of Star Hall.]
[Otherwise, if that wasn't the case, why would the Star Hall Pope be desperate to retire? He already got tired of the work in the Star Hall and wanted to retire which was also the reason why he accepted five disciples in total so that at least one of them could succeed him.]
[You didn't care much about the position of the Star Hall Pope especially when you planned to commit genocide again. Only by going for the 100% genocide completion path would allow you to obtain all of the star artifacts in the world.]
[It was also like how you committed worldwide genocide in the Zombie World just to obtain all of the zombie virus which had given you a higher chance to defeat the mastermind which was Yun Ren.]
[You already knew how effective that method was so you planned to do it again and you didn't have to worry since the world will be reset as usual.]
[After having a small chat with the Holy Maiden, you left them and didn't even bother with Lian Yun who was already a stranger to you in this timeline.]
