Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 585 - 350 Peiqi’s Ship!_3
"No buts, anyone who attacks us will be put to death," the representative of The Glorious Empire said.
"Why?" Xu Xingke asked.
"Because our goal is Heavenly Technique, and anything that hinders this goal must die."
After pondering for a moment, the representative of The Glorious Empire added:
"You all should support this point, just as we will provide top Cultivation Technique inheritances to help enhance your strength— we each take what we need."
Xu Xingke turned and glanced at the people behind him.
The Five Great Families, the Three Major Organizations, each academy, and other powerhouses from the World Policy Committee whispered and debated among themselves.
"As you can see, an additional treaty was suddenly included in the originally agreed matters, and this might need to be discussed," Xu Xingke said.
"That’s fine, you go ahead and discuss it. We’ll wait at the conference venue, hoping it won’t take too long," said the representative of The Glorious Empire.
"It shouldn’t take too long—everyone, let’s go to another room to discuss this matter," Xu Xingke said to the crowd.
A few minutes later.
Another conference room.
"All bans have been deployed, and the other party should be unable to detect our conversation here," said the voice from Kunlun.
"Alright, that treaty just now, what does everyone think?" asked Xu Xingke.
The room immediately became noisy.
All kinds of views, opinions, and arguments.
Everyone started to speak.
After listening for a while, Xu Xingke yawned and said:
"You guys discuss first, I’m going out for a smoke."
People knew he was a heavy smoker, so they took no issue and continued the intense discussion.
Xu Xingke left the conference room, lit a cigarette, and strolled leisurely back to the smoking room, closed the door, kicked back with one leg over the other, and took several satisfying puffs.
A book quietly emerged in front of him.
"Isolate," he uttered.
The book shook, sending out multiple ripples.
Few flustered Physiques burst into the Dharma Realm, vanishing from sight.
Immediately following this.
The blinding incandescent light also went dark.
A spying Technique attached to the incandescent light was destroyed.
Xu Xingke sat alone in the darkness, his eyes slightly cold, his lips curling with a hint of ridicule.
With the cigarette dangling from his mouth, he opened The Tarot Book, flipping page after page backward.
Most pages of this Card Album were blank.
Only a few pages held Cards, either intact or Broken.
Finally.
Xu Xingke’s hand stopped.
On this page was an odd Card.
—This Card was like a display window, through which one could glimpse scenes of other worlds.
"Card: The Liaison’s Window.
"Description: If you know the full name of other Cards, you can invite them to come here and discuss any information."
Xu Xingke drew out the Card and placed it on the table, uttering:
"The Combat Tutoring Master."
He waited for a few moments.
A man with sideburns appeared in the window.
"Hey, Xu Xingke, your student has been too busy, he hasn’t had time to see me," the man said enthusiastically.
"Speaking of my student, how has he been doing lately?" Xu Xingke asked.
"I was actually a bit angry because he hadn’t come to find me, but he just completed a duel with the name of Dark Gold, which was fantastic! I’m not angry anymore!" the man explained.
"Tell me more about the situation," Xu Xingke said.
"Sure thing."
The man recounted the events.
Xu Xingke listened quietly.
Only after the man finished did he deactivate the Card, placing it back in the Card Album.
"Even legitimate self-defense... won’t do," Xu Xingke murmured.
The smoking room quieted down.
In the dark space, only the glow of the cigarette’s ember brightened and dimmed periodically.
A School of Method for breaking through the Nine Layers of the Law Realm was within easy reach.
Even reaching the Tenth Layer, the Eleventh Layer, or even aiming for a higher realm, or ascending to a higher dimension of the universe.
All one had to do was agree to those representatives of The Glorious Empire!
In the darkness.
A chuckling "giggle" sound suddenly emerged.
Xu Xingke clenched his fist, letting the bones rub against the flesh, creating a series of noises.
The stifling aura of death quietly spread, rapidly filling the room.
For a moment.
All the killing intent vanished as if it had never existed.
Click.
The door opened.

"Still smoking in the dark, not even turning on the light," Swordswoman said discontentedly.
"Haha, they were too noisy, I had to find some space for myself, just to have a few minutes of peace," Xu Xingke smoked carelessly.

"Stop smoking and come over, there are a few opinions right now that you should listen to," Swordswoman said.
"I’m just a nominal leader, they only ostensibly obey my orders, but in fact, everyone has their own agenda," Xu Xingke remained seated.
"This matter needs to be resolved somehow," Swordswoman said.
"What’s your opinion?" Xu Xingke asked.
"Actually, I started learning swordsmanship to kill a scoundrel who pushed an innocent old man down a dam, leading to the latter drowning," Swordswoman said.
"After you mastered Swordsmanship, did you go back and kill him?" Xu Xingke asked.
"Not really," Swordswoman replied.
"So, you spared him in the end?"
"No."
"So you didn’t kill him?"
"—The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. One night, I couldn’t hold back, went straight to him and killed him. Only then did I happily go to learn swordsmanship the next day," Swordswoman said.
Xu Xingke laughed silently and said:
"Having killed him, you didn’t actually need to learn swordsmanship anymore."
Swordswoman spoke as if reminiscing about the past, "At first, I thought the same, but later felt that in case I met someone tougher than the scoundrel, I would still need to learn swordsmanship to kill them, so I went on to learn."
