Zhou Tian Trading Company.
Zhou Tian wore a frown that wouldn’t dissipate.
Because recently, a shocking piece of news had circulated within King City, identical to what he had auctioned off previously.
Originally, he had purchased the news for fifty thousand top-grade Primordial Spirit Stones from a Cultivator at the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm.
But recently, when he tried to contact that person, he was unable to reach them at all.
He suspected that it was that person who had leaked the information.
The only ones in the entire Great Xia who knew this secret were himself and Shen Family Patriarch Shen Lingtai.
Shen Lingtai wouldn’t have disclosed it to anyone else.
Aside from Shen Lingtai, he didn’t tell anyone either.
After all, it concerned the chance to achieve the status of a King.
"Zhou Tian, get out here!"
Just then, an angry roar ca from downstairs.
Just by hearing this voice, Zhou Tian knew that Shen Lingtai had arrived.
"Please invite Family Head Shen up."
Zhou Tian ordered.
Soon, soone led Shen Lingtai upstairs.
"Zhou Tian, you owe an explanation. Why has the news I bought for a hundred thousand top-grade Primordial Spirit Stones now spread throughout King City?"
Upon arriving, Shen Lingtai pointed at Zhou Tian’s nose and cursed loudly.
Zhou Tian, however, did not particularly care and laughed heartily: "Family Head Shen, don’t be angry, have a seat and we can discuss this over tea."
This matter was his righteous defense.
"Today, you must give an explanation!"
Shen Lingtai angrily sat down.
"Of course."
Zhou Tian’s face was all smiles as he personally served tea to Shen Lingtai.
Shen Lingtai took a sip of tea, put down the porcelain cup, and stared at Zhou Tian, saying, "Speak!"
"Family Head Shen, you know how precious this news is! It concerns the chance to beco a King. How could I possibly go around spreading it? To date, I’ve only told you. I haven’t even told the core executives of Zhou Tian Trading Company!"
"The news wasn’t leaked by !"
Zhou Tian chuckled.
"Not you? Could it possibly be then?"
Shen Lingtai said impatiently, "I haven’t told anyone either."
"Family Head Shen, don’t be anxious, I know it wouldn’t be you."
Zhou Tian said, "Now I suspect it must be the man who sold the news to who leaked it!"
"I don’t care."
Shen Lingtai said, "That’s your issue. You initially assured this was exclusive, that’s why I paid for the news. Now that everyone knows, either return my money or provide so compensation."
Hearing the word ’money’, Zhou Tian beca displeased: "Family Head Shen, I haven’t yet identified the source of the leak. Thus, I can’t rule out the possibility that it was leaked by you. As for a refund or compensation, I’m sorry, but let’s wait until this matter is clarified."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lingtai beca furious: "Zhou Tian, is this how Zhou Tian Trading Company does business? When problems arise, you don’t resolve them but shift the bla onto your custors?"
Honestly, this incident had already angered him enough.
He did not expect Zhou Tian Trading Company to shirk responsibility like this.
Zhou Tian calmly said, "Family Head Shen, I am trying to resolve this for you. It just takes so ti. Besides, having known this news ahead of others, you had nearly two months to prepare. Even now that everyone knows, your Shen Family still holds a significant advantage."
"Additionally, this is a chance to beco a King! Weigh for yourself what’s more important - this opportunity or Spirit Stones!"
...
Palace.
In a secret chamber.
Xia Jiuyou was tutoring Xia Biluo in her cultivation.
"Biluo, after the Sword Body Realm, cos the Sword Montum Realm."
"The Sword Montum Realm is divided into two stages; the first is lifting weight as if it were light, the second is lifting light as if it were heavy."
"Lifting weight as if it were light is a defensive realm, capable of resolving formidable attacks from opponents."
"So in the future, you should strive more in this direction."
Xia Jiuyou smiled.
"Very well, Father!"
Xia Biluo nodded.
King Xia’s smile grew even more satisfied.
Ever since he learned that Ling Chen had killed the State Preceptor and the Great Divine Guards, Xia Biluo finally started to diligently cultivate, unlike his previous carefree attitude.
Even he didn’t know whether Ling Chen’s ergence was a blessing or a curse.
Now, unable to find any traces of Ling Chen, he had gradually co to a realization.
No matter what, even if Ling Chen had extraordinary talent, it would take a long ti for him to advance to the Palace Mansion Realm.
Whereas, Biluo, having the Sacred Body, only needed ti to step into the King Realm.
As for Ling Chen, perhaps, he would be stuck in the Primordial Pill Realm for a long ti.
He wasn’t considered a significant threat to them.
The only sowhat threatening individual was Ji Wuya, a King in the Palace Mansion Realm.
Although he himself was not afraid, Xia Biluo would be in danger if he encountered him.
This person, after all, was from the sa era as his father.
Even his father’s death was greatly related to Ji Wuya.
"By the way, one month from now, follow to the Desolate Land. During this period, try to enhance your cultivation as much as possible. Let’s hold off on advancing your Sword Dao realm – what I ntioned before was just to give you an impression."
"Right now, you’ve fully stepped into the peak of the Sword Body Realm; who knows when you might enter the Sword Montum Realm. At such a level, you should understand that a breakthrough might just need an epiphany."
King Xia advised further.
"Father, are you hoping that I make my breakthrough in the King’s Relic?"
Xia Biluo asked.
In fact, his Sacred Body’s constitution was sufficient for him to step into the Palace Mansion Realm, without needing to seek any opportunities in the King’s Relic.
"Yes!"
King Xia nodded and said, "That place is extrely mysterious. There, not only top Super Spiritual Bodies can break through to beco Kings, but the cultivation speed will also greatly increase. Therefore, I hope that you can make your breakthrough there as well."
"You are currently in the later stages of Primordial Pill Realm Level Eight. Make an effort, and strive to step into Primordial Pill Realm Level Nine within a month! At that ti, you’ll be qualified to advance towards the Palace Mansion Realm there."
In the King’s Relic, to break through to the Palace Mansion Realm, one needs to reach at least the Primordial Pill Realm Level Nine.
"I will try my best!"
Xia Biluo nodded firmly.
His eyes sparkled with a sharp glint.
Recently, his fa had even been overshadowed by Ling Chen.
He was not satisfied!
He was, after all, a bearer of the Sacred Body!
And the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty.
How could he fall behind others?
"Yes!"
King Xia smiled and nodded, saying, "You continue your cultivation here; I’ll go out first. Later on, I will co to call you."
After speaking, King Xia left the secret chamber and returned to the Zhengyang Palace.
"My King, a top Divine Guard has an urgent matter to report!"
An eunuch ca in and reported.
"Let him in!"
King Xia said indifferently.
"Yes."
The eunuch responded, and soon, a top Divine Guard swiftly walked in.
"Greetings to my King!"
The top Divine Guard respectfully saluted.
"Rise, what’s the matter?"
King Xia asked.
Now that both the State Preceptor and the Great Divine Guard were dead, all intelligence matters were handed over to the Ghost Divine Guards.
And this top Divine Guard was now the leader of the Eight Great Divine Guards.
"My King, recently there has been a widespread rumor across the entire Great Xia that a King’s opportunity will appear in the Desolate Land in a month."
The top Divine Guard respectfully said.
