Chapter 2145: Chapter 2142: Invincible and Unbreakable
In front, the staggering figure didn’t stop.
Yet the weak words from its mouth didn’t cease either.
"Eight Palaces, once my faith too."
"But I’ve never been as disappointed as I am today."
"When I first set out, the first role I took was as a Demon Hunter."
"I’ve witnessed demon beast calamities, seeing the lands soaked in blood and suffering, rivers run crimson."
"I’ve also maneuvered among demon beasts, battling fiercely, watching comrades perish at beast’s mouths."
"I’ve seen countless human martial artists unite, lives forsaken, just to protect countless mankind behind them; a modicum of human martial artist dignity."
"I kill without mercy, hands ever bloody, impassioned; you call me decisive and ruthless."
"I once deemed myself cold enough, valuing life like ants."
"But in the face of countless demon beasts, facing imminent destruction, I too become overwhelmed."
"Perhaps because behind me, cherished ones that I cannot bear to see buried by beasts, faced with such peril."
"Or perhaps simply for being a human martial artist myself."
"I cannot discern the reason."
"But amidst such fierce demon beast rampages, my heart too stirs."
"So once, I held high esteem for my Eight Palace Martial Artist status, proud of being a Demon Hunter, Asura Warrior, Wind Master..."
"I even felt a bit proud."
"Perhaps for the exemplary figures, genuinely respectable old folks, giving me grand examples."
"So at times, I considered the Eight Palaces an acceptance, even a faith."
"Heh." Xiao Yi spoke, one after another.
Perhaps his most verbose day ever.
But then again, it might be his first time feeling such profound disappointment, a faith shattered.
Though frail, Xiao Yi’s words aren’t silenced.
"This time, I am truly disillusioned."
"An Eight Palaces civil war? The elites meant to combat beast disasters, pit against Eight Palace Martial Artists?"
"Is this truly my once-accepted Eight Palaces?"
"Are these, once revered old figures that I knew?"
"Perhaps, I am mistaken."
"Not any palace will I inherit within the Eight Palaces."
Xiao Yi’s speech abruptly halts.
The initially disappointed tone shifting into frail chill.
"Today, I ascend to the Holy Moon Sect merely to deal with my matters."
"Once accomplished today, whether dead or alive, I am no longer an Eight Palace Martial Artist."
This is Xiao Yi’s final statement.
The gaze in his eyes restored back to its usual icy cold.
This coldness belongs to Xiao Yi, and solely Xiao Yi, simply Xiao Yi.
The eight masters stand again stupefied.
Yet simultaneously, determination flickers within their eyes.
"Black Mage Xiao Xun assumes control of Black Demon Main Hall, effective immediately," Senior Luoo commands sharply.
"Array Master Xiao Xun assumes control of Heavenly Mechanism Main Hall, effective immediately," Heavenly Mechanism Hall Master vociferates.
"Soul Master Xiao Xun assumes control of Soul Hall Main Hall, effective immediately."
"Demon Hunter Yi Xiao assumes control of Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall, effective immediately."
"Flame Hall Warrior Yi Xiao assumes control of Flame Hall Main Hall, effective immediately."
"Medicine Envoy Yi Xiao assumes control of Medicine Venerate Hall, effective immediately."
"Asura Warrior Xiao Yi assumes control of Asura Hall Main Hall, effective immediately."
"Wind Master Xiao Yi assumes control of Wind Shattering Hall Main Hall, effective immediately."
...
The eight masters almost spoke in unison.
Eight voices, almost simultaneously proclaimed, echoing across the whole world.
Six Vice Orders were launched swiftly back to Xiao Yi’s side.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yi halts his stride abruptly, furrowing his brows tightly.
"I’m not interested..."
"You don’t have the choice to reject." Demon Hunting Hall Master interrupts in a serious tone.
"Order given, with your aura engraved upon the Vice Orders long ago."
"I don’t care how the other halls operate, from today, you are Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall Master."
Heavenly Mechanism Hall Master chuckles, "I don’t concern myself with the other halls either, from today, you are Heavenly Mechanism Hall Main Hall Master."
Each word, spoken by each master.
Their tone, assertive.
Around them, unknown when, exclamations of disbelief began to ring.
"How is it possible, simultaneous appointment to Eight Palaces?"
...
Outside, among the elites of various halls that had originally been sealed off, there arose sounds of exclamation and disbelief.
"One person assuming the position of the Master of the Eight Palaces simultaneously?"
"Doesn’t that mean..."
A Black Demon Hall elite’s body trembled, "Since the establishment of the Eight Palaces, in history... the only one... Master of the Eight Palaces."
...
"I..." Xiao Yi wanted to say something, but his body collapsed once more.
This body, with such injuries, if he didn’t recuperate, would only deteriorate further.
Xiao Yi hurriedly sat cross-legged, with the Golden Flame Sacred Fire flowing continuously over him.
If he didn’t heal his injuries soon, the things he wanted to do would become impossible.
This time, he actively condensed the Golden Flame Sacred Fire.
The golden, brilliant flame was controlled to perfection in his hands.
This Fire Control Demon’s ability to control fire would make any Fire Control Warrior blush with shame.
Swish...
The figure of the Medicine Venerate Master flashed and instantly appeared behind Xiao Yi.
He sat cross-legged, extending a finger.
"Don’t resist." With that, the Master of the Main Hall of the Medicine Venerate closed his eyes and began to heal Xiao Yi.
In the distance.
In the woman’s eyes, her resentment did not diminish in the slightest but instead grew stronger.
"Master of the Eight Palaces?"
"How unfortunate, just a boy who hasn’t matured yet."
"Kill him for me."
All around, after the exclamations and astonishment, there was an instant explosion.
This is the Holy Moon Sect.
And the Holy Moon Sect is the head of the hidden world, with countless strong individuals within the Sect.
Here, there are powerful figures from the Hidden Hundred Families.
This is still a terrifying force of overwhelming combat power.
And the Saint Lord commands absolute authority.
No one dares to defy her in the slightest.
"Yes."
"We obey the orders of the Saint Lord."
A chorus of responses echoed, and numerous powerful figures once again erupted with overwhelming momentum and that astonishing intent to kill.
"I want to see who can protect this boy today." In the eyes of the Saint Lord, an uncontrollable rage erupted, exploding instantly.
Swish...
At this moment, a figure flashed and appeared steadily at the Chief’s position.
The figure, standing there with an indifferent expression, was enough to make the woman’s expression change slightly.
"Luoo Venerable." The woman squinted her eyes.
"As long as I’m here, you won’t have the chance to strike." Senior Luoo uttered coolly.
On the other side.
Beside the Grand Elder of the Holy Moon Sect, a figure also appeared out of thin air.
The Asura Hall Master, with hands folded, said, "Why should we old folks meddle in the affairs of the young?"
The Grand Elder of the Holy Moon Sect appeared cold, but dared not make any move.
In the seats of Beiyin Palace, a few elders, who had been feigning sleep, abruptly opened their eyes, their expressions grave.
But beside them, an elder with a calm face suddenly appeared and sat.
"Soul Hall Master." The Beiyin Palace Grand Elder squinted his eyes.
"Don’t force this old man to kill." The Soul Hall Master, even as he spoke words filled with murderous intent, remained expressionless.
...
The surrounding momentum, with a furious shout from the woman, suddenly went berserk.
The entire arena of martial artists, with countless strong individuals, all erupted with momentum.
This situation was enough to make anyone present change their expression dramatically.
In the seating area of the Black Cloud Academy.
Qing Lin’s face showed surprise, feeling the torrential momentum around him, and looked worrying at the distant figure sitting cross-legged, "Junior Brother Xiao Yi..."
Beside him, a wry-looking old man chuckled; he was the Vice Dean.
"Don’t worry."
"Do you remember what I said before?"
The Vice Dean, with his hands folded in pride, said, "A fragmented Eight Palaces wanting to destroy the colossal Holy Moon Sect would need to bleed out at least four palaces."
"But if the Eight Palaces stand united, on this continent, they will... be indestructible."
