Master of Untold Daos

Chen Ming said to Li Suyi, “Bring the Soul Bead to me.”

So, Sire and the barbarian are close. But that’s expected when they are frank people. He’ll never sell Faceless.

Bu Liuhen dropped the Soul Bead in Li Suyi’s hand.

Got it!

The three saw Chen Ming’s eyes and new the time for rewards came, “I have prepared a gift for each of you.”

Li Suyi brought three praying mats from somewhere in the hall.

Lu Qingxuan and Yang Hun’s eyes met, unable to figure out what made it so special.

Bu Liuhen though, was on cloud nine, “Many thanks, Sire!”

“Bound them with blood and no one else shall use them but you.”

Bu Liuhen bit his finger without delay. The others knew from his exuberance that this was a great item!

They bound it and sat cross-legged with a clear mind.

It could increase their comprehension speed. All those intricate scriptures began to link in their minds.

They all knew the weight of such a gift.

It was the same as grabbing nature’s fortune, the world’s greatest and most marvelous creation!

Lu Qingxuan found it oddly familiar, but who on earth would think of cultivating while riding? The praying mat was another matter altogether. Sitting on it implied the wish to cultivate, the most common habit of all cultivators.

Lu Qingxuan bowed, “Thank you, Sire, for such a gift. With it, our power will soar!”

Yang Hun bowed, “This old man has no value, yet Sire holds me in such high regard. Even if I die a thousand times for Sire, it’s still not enough to repay this gratitude!”

Chen Ming nodded, “Take it. Come tomorrow, I shall bestow you all with an official position, announcing them to the entire constellation.”

The three withdrew and he turned to Li Suyi, “Tomorrow, you will receive the path to immortality’s key and then we’ll leave.”

On the morrow.

Celestial Immortals walked before the hall, standing in complete darkness. That’s right, other powers gathered in daylight, while the Headless Assembly’s meeting began in the evening.

As hundreds of people waited, the four Blades came to the hall.

The crowd of Celestial Immortals divided to make way.

“Are they Sire Faceless’ Blades?”

“I heard each are strong beyond belief!”

“They say Lu Qingxuan pushed back Jade Lake’s ten thousand immortals!”

“Yang Hun is more outstanding, shooting down a Gold Immortal in a single arrow and also defeated another Gold Immortal!”

“They say that barbarian youth has tens of thousands of immortal beasts at his beck and call!”

One Celestial Immortal shouted, “By Sire Faceless’ decree, Lu Qingxuan shall be the Lord of Scarlet Dragon Star River! He is bestowed with a hundred stars from the Vile Dragon Star River.”

“By Sire Faceless’ decree, Yang Hun shall be the Lord of Jade Dragon Star River! He is bestowed with a hundred stars from the Vile Dragon Star River.”

“By Sire Faceless’ decree, Bu Liuhen shall be the Overseer of Vile Dragon Star River! He is bestowed with a hundred stars from the Vile Dragon Star River.”

“By Sire Faceless’ decree, the brave barbarian is bestowed with a hundred stars from Scarlet Dragon Star River.”

The crowed kneeled, “We greet the Lord of Scarlet Dragon Star River, the Lord of Jade Dragon Star River and the Overseer of Vile Dragon Star River.”

It was clear to all of them that the Blades were conferred territory from the Vile Dragon Star River. It meant their clans would settle down in this Star River. And Bu Liuhen was only its overseer, a temporary ruler replacing Sire Faceless.

Vile Dragon Star River would always be under Sire Faceless’ control.

But this was expected. This conclusion presented them with two benefits. First, the Vile Dragon Star River was deep in the Three-headed Dragon Constellation. Secondly, these three would never revolt, not with all their clans and disciples in the Vile Dragon Star River.

This was a common occurrence throughout history.

As for the brave barbarian, Oh, please, isn’t he just a

barbarian? The stars under him will only serve to feed his immortal beasts!

This was all withing Chen Ming’s calculations. But he now found the Three-headed Dragon Constellation’s position in the Galaxy quite precarious though. I now have that f*cking Headless Assembly, Jade Lake and Heavenly Court’s constellations for neighbors!

How else could the last two dip their hands in his stars?

Beyond the Scarlet Dragon Star River was Heavenly Court. Beyond Jade Dragon Star River was the Jade Lake. He had to station Yang Hun and Lu Qingxuan as a defense.

Behind the Vile Dragon Star River was the Headless Assembly’s turf. His only choice was to leave it in Bu Liuhen’s care. With the century war over, there was little possibility for the other Faceless to knock on his door.

Obviously, he had to resolve this problem. Faceless infighting was notorious throughout the Galaxy.

With all settled, Lu Qingxuan, Bu Liuhen and Yang Hun exerted their control and gradually gathered the paths to immortality’s keys.

Chen Ming used this time to head home along with Li Suyi.

He was also about to turn in his mission, finding Return of the Faceless’ completion rate at 96%, of perfect rating, “I want to turn in Return of the Faceless.”

“Ding! Mission reassessment: because of the interference of another Faceless’ Blade, mission difficulty increased. Mission evaluation: perfect. Reward: 1.2 billion spiritual knowledge, Sin Searing Book. Note: Feng Lu has a little secret.”

Sin Searing Book?

What’s this supposed to be?

But taking into account the mission’s A rating, it has to be good! That baldy Feng Lu was keeping such good stuff hidden away; time to pay him a visit.

Feng Lu knew when Chen Ming arrived. He had heard of Faceless’ decree a long time ago. This part of the Galaxy was now under Faceless supervision.

After paying Chen Ming’s courtyard a visit, the latter asked, “Feng Lu, have you heard of Sin Searing Book?”

“Let me think. It’s a transcending ranked soul transcending scripture. No one was able to train in it so I will just give it to Lord.”

Feng Lu forwent haggling, now with his Obsidian Star in Chen Ming’s fiefdom. He had no intention of making a scene in his lands. As long as he wasn’t too excessive in his actions, the Faceless would never care. Even if he did, it’d probably be just a courtesy warning.
