Master of Untold Daos-Chapter 480 - Got No Time to Fuss with You

Chapter 480: Got No Time to Fuss with You

Chen Ming soon saw Duan Shou coming back with Daoist Radiant and notice his lower half bled like crazy, Yep, half-alive indeed.

A weak voice came from Daoist Radiant, “Why do strangers like us need to cross swords?”

Chen Ming replied, “I’m a righteous and honest to god youngster that goes out subduing monsters and vanquishing evil. How can I not kill you?”

Chen Ming was in no mood to waste words on the dead, especially when bad guys usually die at this time. He pulled his saber and stabbed through Daoist Radiant’s forehead and started stirring.

He wiped the blood on the body and muttered, “Since he’s dead, we need to leave evidence, one that proved Nr. 6 was out of the loop. This way it won’t break Crownless Assembly’s rule.”

After all, if killing him would end up with Heavenly Court’s generals going after Nr. 6, it would be the same as violating Faceless’ rule.

Chen Ming pondered then wrote with the blade on the ground.

With that done, he and Duan Shou swaggered off.

Chen Ming also got the notice, “Ding! Advancement mission complete, cultivation released.”

The pair returned to Yan Mountain after an eternity and a half, not in the least bit interested in the aftermath. Just as he got back, the decennial Inevitable meeting required his attendance.

He sat on his throne in the main hall and wore the mask.

As Faceless appeared, they were all there except for Nr. 6. They watched him with a long look. Chen Ming and Nr. 6’s squabble went on for two decades.

Nr. 6’s delay had to have something to do with Nr. 5.

And by the looks of it, it was a heavy blow too.

Even Inevitable showed up, but Nr. 6 was still missing. Inevitable, with his mask of rage, turned his abyss-like eyes to Chen Ming.

Chen Ming wanted to say, Don’t look at me, when Nr. 6’s seat was occupied at that moment.

He slapped the table in rage and anxiety, “Nr. 5, I accept your declaration of war!”

In Chen Ming’s mind, What did I do? When did I write it?

The others made their own guesses. Nr. 5 had to have hit the other so hard, it caused him this delay to the point he barely made it.

Inevitable ignored his outburst. He saw his fair share of wars and hostility among them.

Chen Ming said, “When did I declare war?”

Nr. 6 glowered, “It’s what you did with Daoist Radiant!”

Chen Ming now got it, “Oh, oh, now that you mention it, didn’t I leave a message?”

Nr. 6’s rage was mounting, “You call that a message?”

“Exactly. I left a message stating you were totally innocent!”

“So you wrote: it wasn’t the Faceless in the neighboring constellation that did it?”

Chen Ming thought for a bit, “Yeah, I wrote it since you had nothing to do with it!”

Nr. 1 smiled, “Reverse psychology…”

Nr. 3 added, “No, no, no, this just goes to show how honest Nr. 5 is…”

Even Inevitable smiled, “En, it doesn’t count as using Heavenly Court to do it.”

He killed Daoist Radiant and even left a message: It wasn’t the Faceless in the neighboring constellation that did it.

Could he be any more clearer?

With these two matters combined, the first suspect that popped in anyone’s mind was Nr. 6. Heavenly Court considered it a challenge to their power.

Killing and leaving such an obvious and arrogant message was the same as saying Nr. 6 did it without a doubt then challenged with: Uh, I did it, so what are you gonna do about it?

Nr. 6 was raging, “Just you wait. The next Inevitable meeting you won’t be there to see it.”

“Ding! You triggered an S- storyline mission: Overt Showdown. Please kill Nr. 6 and obtain his mask. Reward: 1 billion spiritual knowledge, 0.1 million fame, and unknown.”

Chen Ming was peaked on the spot. He left that line but, Didn’t see that one coming.

It’s just a scuffle. Plus I need to go over at the barbarians’ place and I won’t be back anytime soon. Killing Nr. 6 to spread my might should fit right in my schedule.

Nr. 6 and I are too close, neighbors actually. One that always schemes to kill me.

The tumor had to be removed.

The meeting had nothing substantial to offer and soon came the time for trading, but Chen Ming declined to participate. He was mulling over how to get rid of his neighbor.

Hmm, it’s a bit hard.

Each Faceless had the power to hang a general of the four Domains at a whim. The hardest part was finding them.

Chen Ming could inspect their status, even if they were Faceless, but as this was war, Nr. 6 wasn’t as easy to handle as Daoist Radiant. He wouldn’t bump into him on the street, that’s for sure. Plus he wore a mask all this time and had no clue as how he looked.

Chen Ming was thinking and so was his neighbor.

Nr. 9 said his the same line as always, “I only want to kill all of you.”

With Inevitable’s meeting drawing to a close, Chen Ming opened his eyes and sighed, “Such troubled times. I only had the best intentions, so he won’t die of old age. Who’d have thought he’d take it the wrong way. Now I need to figure out how to deal with him.”

Crossing swords wasn’t hard, but finding Nr. 6 was, as well as how to slaughter him.

His first order of business was to get a feel of his true strength. War had begun.

It was an S- mission. It wasn’t S, however it exceeded the A rank. The rating alone spoke of its difficulty. Nr. 6 was going to be a headache.

“Increase my cultivation to Emergence stage.”

“Ding! 3 billion spiritual knowledge required, continue?”

“I have no time to fuss with a hussy. Do it!”

Chen Ming’s body began to change as the scriptures in his Dao Furnace floated and radiated with light, touching the furnace.

The Dao Furnace expanded and began to connect with the meridians around it.

Chen Ming felt his power growing, his spiritual power rising. It had been a long time since he last looked over his status and it was time to see just how much did this step improved him.
