Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1701: Eight Halls Wanted Order

9,500 paths—that’s why it’s called Martial Arts Great Power.

It’s because Martial Arts Great Power is one of the cultivation realms.

And in addition, it’s because mastering 9,500 complete Martial Arts paths is already equivalent to an extremely high Martial Arts level.

Compared to ordinary Martial Artists, this is already an existence with vast Martial Arts Knowledge, thus called a Great Power.

And a Martial Arts Great Power, in fact, already possesses the qualification to establish their own Sect.

Though they cannot reach the level of the Five Great Academy.

Still, founding some ordinary Academic Palaces and Sects is more than possible, and they are fully capable of teaching ordinary Heavenly Talents.

This is what a Martial Arts Great Power is.

Bang...

The Purple Flame Fire Wings gave a flap, and Xiao Yi flew into the air.

Leaving his original location, hundreds of thousands of miles away again, Xiao Yi landed once more.

Finding a deep forest in the mountains, Xiao Yi set up a barrier.

After that, he took off the Ghost Mask and stripped off his tight-fitting combat clothes.

He changed back into a set of Young Master’s clothes.

Right—next, he was going to move around using his real identity as Xiao Yi.

First, as for the Main Hall Masters of the three halls such as the Demon Hunting Hall and the others, after that sort of "scheming," he honestly couldn’t think of a way to deal with it for the time being.

But that didn’t mean he was helpless.

No matter what means the three Main Hall Masters used to force him so he could not refuse the position of successor to the Three Halls Main Hall Master.

But if they couldn’t find him, what could they do?

With the Ghost Mask taken off and a Young Master’s clothes on, restoring Xiao Yi’s identity...

Under heaven, who could find him?

Right now, no matter how sincere and earnest the three Main Hall Masters might be, no matter how much they favored him.

As long as he didn’t go back to take over, the matter wouldn’t escalate to anything too serious.

Even if his identity was exposed in the future, it would still only be the position of Three Halls Vice Hall Master.

The consequences of that weren’t too severe.

The Eight Palaces, in the end, have strict hall rules—iron rules, unchanged for tens of millions of years.

And among the later rules, there is even one that Martial Artists are not allowed to join multiple Ancient Halls alliances at the same time.

Thus, Xiao Yi definitely wouldn’t be stupid enough to go back to the Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall.

If he really couldn’t think of a way to deal with it later, at worst he would just use the identity of Xiao Yi to go find the three Main Hall Masters and explain everything clearly.

That was still better than being hunted down by the Three Halls.

Xiao Yi shook his head helplessly.

Of course, all that was for later; what mattered more now was the matter of the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb.

He switched back to the identity of Xiao Yi for a second reason: to patch up the lie he had told in front of the Asura Hall Master that day.

So to go to the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb, he could only go as his true self, Xiao Yi.

Whoosh... whoosh...

Xiao Yi summoned the Purple Lightning Divine Sword and flew directly by sword.

His Sword Dao strength was now far inferior to his Fire Control Skill strength.

So in theory, his flying speed should also be far inferior.

But the Purple Lightning Divine Sword was a High Grade Peak Holy Artifact, with an enormous amplification.

Thus, his current sword flight was also extremely fast—though not as fast as the Purple Flame Fire Wings, it wasn’t much slower.

An hour later, Xiao Yi left the range of the Extreme East, crossing over several regions.

Then, he landed in a relatively large and prosperous region nearby.

For the past half year, he had been acting as Yi Xiao, and it had been a long time since he had appeared under his true identity.

So he needed to go to the Wind Shattering Hall side and see if any information or events had occurred recently.

The Central Region was truly too vast.

If a Martial Artist didn’t have enough information, they were really like being deaf and blind.

Xiao Yi descended directly beneath the Main Hall of this region.

Entering the Wind Shattering Hall Main Hall, Xiao Yi took out his Token, preparing to head to the Scrolls Room to look up some intel.

With his current authority, aside from the Main Hall itself, he could freely access information at the Main Halls of the various regions in the Central Region.

However, inside the Scrolls Room...

He had just begun to search the intel.

When an old man hurried over.

"Vice Master Xiao Yi, you finally showed up." The old man, seeing Xiao Yi and confirming his face, let out a sigh of relief, then his expression turned joyful.

"And you are?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly.

"Oh." The old man cupped his hands and said, "This old man is the person in charge of this Wind Shattering Hall."

"Although I hold the position of Main Hall Master, since Vice Master Xiao Yi is a Vice Hall Master of the Main Hall, you and I count as equal in rank."

"You were looking for me?" Xiao Yi nodded slightly, then asked.

This Main Hall Master had rushed over to find him; clearly, there was something going on.

"Yes." The old man nodded and said, "There are two letters and urgent orders here for you, Vice Master Xiao Yi."

"Oh?" Xiao Yi was slightly puzzled.

He was a Wind Shattering Hall Martial Artist, and also a Vice Hall Master of the Main Hall.

So any letters or urgent orders relating to him would leave mirrored information in the Main Halls and branch halls of all regions in the Central Region, allowing these scrolls to be pulled up.

As he roamed the Central Region, no matter what region he arrived in, as long as there was a branch of Wind Shattering Hall, he could check these letters and urgent orders.

Of course, the Wind Shattering Hall had iron rules: if it was some secret letter, not even the person in charge of this Wind Shattering Hall had the right to access it.

It would require his own Token before it could be retrieved.

"Is it a secret letter?" Xiao Yi asked.

"It shouldn’t be." The old man replied, "The letters are right here in the Scrolls Room. Vice Master Xiao Yi, you just have to use your Token to pull them up."

Xiao Yi nodded, took out his Token, and retrieved the two scrolls.

He opened the first one.

After a few glances, Xiao Yi’s face showed sudden realization.

This was a letter sent from the Wind Shattering Hall Main Hall by that brat Ye Liu, the contents naturally calling him to the Ye Saint Mansion.

This was just an ordinary letter.

As for the second one, there was clearly a Prohibition on the scroll.

Xiao Yi broke the Prohibition, and then images appeared in the air.

In the images was the furious face of Chengfeng Hall Master.

"Brat, no matter where in the world you run to, I’m giving you one month to rush back to the Main Hall. Otherwise, I’ll come catch you personally."

After that came a pile of furious threats.

Xiao Yi curled his lip.

The old man at the side couldn’t help but laugh.

"I was just about to head back to the Main Hall." Xiao Yi shook his head and put away the scroll.

"But judging by the time on this urgent order, that month is already up."

"Where’s Chengfeng Hall Master?"

The old man answered, "Vice Master Xiao Yi, the reason this old man came was to tell you that the Main Hall is looking for you."

"Chengfeng Hall Master has already issued notices in all the Main Halls of the Central Region to search for you."

"Once you’re seen, your information is to be sent back to the Main Hall immediately."

"Looks like the Main Hall is in quite a hurry to find you."

"As for Chengfeng Hall Master, he passed through this hall a few days ago and specifically instructed me."

"From his tone, it sounded like he was going to make a trip to the Extreme East."

"But later, it seems some other mission came up, and he and Hengtian Palace Master suddenly changed course and left."

"A sudden mission? What was it?" Xiao Yi pressed.

"That I don’t know." The old man shook his head. "But there should be intel about it sent back to this Main Hall soon."

"I haven’t had time to look through all the intel yet. Vice Master Xiao Yi can search in the Scrolls Room."

"All right, thank you." Xiao Yi cupped his hands.

"No need to be so polite." The old man cupped his hands in return and turned to leave. "If Vice Master Xiao Yi needs anything, just come find this old man."

Xiao Yi nodded and continued to browse the scrolls.

An hour later, he had roughly gone through the events of the past few months.

Then, out of curiosity, he also checked into the matter of Chengfeng Hall Master and the other one suddenly leaving.

"Hm? This scroll was sent back half a day ago?" Xiao Yi frowned.

He opened the intel and skimmed it.

"A wanted order? And all Eight Palace Martial Artists are to join the hunt?"

Even Chengfeng Hall Master and Hengtian Palace Master had suddenly left to join it?

...

Third update.
