Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 1599: Unafraid of Dark Clouds

"Elders, my sister has offended you in many ways, please be understanding." Mo Youu repeatedly bowed and saluted.

"Brother..."

"Shut up." Mo Youu glared at Mo Youh.

Mo Youu looked at the elders, "If the elders want to blame someone, I am willing to take full responsibility, without any complaints."

"Junior Brother Qin Yi, sorry." Mo Youu glanced at Qin Yi.

The elders took a deep breath, calming their anger.

Elder Yun Yuan said in a deep voice, "Where’s the Old Dean?"

"Oh." Mo Youu replied, "Master just helped me break through and is still in the seclusion room calming his breath."

"Do the elders have business with Master? Do you need me to convey a message?"

Elder Yun Yuan nodded, "There is something, but no need, we will go find the Old Dean ourselves."

"But I happen to have something to ask you as well."

"What is it?" Mo Youu asked, puzzled.

However, Elder Yun Yuan and the elders said no more words.

"What’s the matter?" Mo Youu frowned.

Behind him, Senior Luoo’s figure appeared out of nowhere.

"Mo Youu, you don’t need to worry about these matters."

"You just broke through, go stabilize your realm well and prepare for the opening of the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb in half a year."

Senior Luoo’s tone, with authority, carried concern.

"Yes." Mo Youu nodded.

"Master, elders, I take my leave."

Mo Youu glanced at the elders oddly.

"Mo Youh, you come with me." Saying this, Mo Youu glanced at Qin Yi, "Junior Brother Qin Yi, I’ll get you the elixir later."

Mo Youu, Mo Youh, and Sikong Yu left together.

"Everyone disperse." Senior Luoo glanced at the surrounding disciples.

"Yes." The surrounding disciples saluted one by one and left.

In place, only Senior Luoo and a group of elders remained.

Only then did Senior Luoo softly say, "Scatter."

The restrictive power on the elders suddenly dispersed.

Clearly, it wasn’t that the elders didn’t want to speak but were restrained, unable to utter a word.

However, with Senior Luoo’s methods, outsiders could hardly detect it.

Elder Yun Yuan and Hui Deacon both looked extremely sullen.

"Did Senior Luoo silence us to prevent us from saying anything rash?"

Senior Luoo remained silent.

"Heh." Elder Yun Yuan coldly chuckled, "It seems Mo Youu doesn’t know that the Sword Emperor Origin was snatched by Senior Luoo from Xiao Yi, does he?"

Senior Luoo still remained silent.

Elder Yun Yuan squinted his eyes, "Senior Luoo knows that given Mo Youu’s nature, if he knew the Sword Emperor Origin originally belonged to Xiao Yi, he would never absorb it."

"What’s the need to know?" Senior Luoo’s tone was indifferent, "He only needs to know it is something I gave to him."

"You won’t even give Xiao Yi a sense of justice?" Elder Yun Yuan coldly questioned.

"What is justice?" Senior Luoo coldly said, "I am stronger than him, and stronger than you all, that’s all there is to it, what is there to say?"

With the end of his words, Senior Luoo’s figure flickered and he departed.

Crack... crack... crack...

Elder Yun Yuan’s and Hui Deacon’s fists clenched with cracking sounds.

"Sigh." Not far away, the Deputy Dean appeared somewhat desolate and let out a sigh.

"Everyone disperse."

The group of elders shook their heads, sighed, and turned to leave, as if they aged greatly in an instant.

Not far away, a figure slowly approached.

That figure had actually been present from the start but had been watching coldly, not approaching.

Only now did it slowly come forward.

"Qing Lin." Elder Yun Yuan and Hui Deacon looked at the newcomer.

"Elders." Qing Lin saluted, "What’s with that young lady and the pretty boy? Why are they at our academy?"

"When I entered seclusion two months ago, I didn’t see them."

Elder Hei Xuan nearby answered, "Two months ago, the Old Dean intended to help Mo Youu breakthrough."

"Mo Youu feared the breakthrough would take some time and wouldn’t be able to take care of his sister, so he brought her along."

"The Deputy Dean, for the sake of the Old Dean, provided them with cultivation items that were not less than those they had at the Heavenly Hidden Academy and perhaps even more."

"I see." Qing Lin nodded.

"Ah, I am leaving too." Elder Hei Xuan shook his head, and turned to leave.

Not far away, the Vice Dean cast a glance at Qing Lin but didn’t approach, his desolate face also shook his head and turned away.

Only Elder Yun Yuan, Deacon Hui, and Qing Lin remained at the original spot.

Elder Yun Yuan and the others looked at Qing Lin and chuckled softly, "After learning about Xiao Yi’s matter these last two months, instead of making a fuss, you’ve focused on your retreat."

"It’s quite rare indeed."

At this moment, Qing Lin’s words were still frivolous, yet his face revealed a touch of determination and composure that he hadn’t possessed before.

Qing Lin shook his head, "I just think perhaps the Old Dean was right."

"He’s stronger than Junior Brother Xiao Yi, he’s stronger than the two elders, so he’s right, there’s nothing else to be said."

Qing Lin seemed to be stating the most straightforward fact.

But the fists he held were clearly clenched tightly.

In fact, patches of blue scales unconsciously emerged.

"Don’t think too much." Elder Yun Yuan was about to offer a comforting word when he noticed Qing Lin’s azure scales.

"Hmm? Perfect materialization?"

"Qing Lin, you..."

Elder Yun Yuan and the others showed faces of surprise.

Qing Lin nodded, "In the past two months of seclusion, my cultivation hasn’t increased much, but the mastery of my Martial Soul has greatly improved."

"Your cultivation hasn’t grown because you haven’t awakened your Martial Soul for the second time," Elder Yun Yuan quickly said.

"But your Martial Soul control has reached the stage of perfect materialization."

"Your Martial Soul is indeed..."

Deacon Hui glanced at Elder Yun Yuan.

Elder Yun Yuan nodded, stopping his words.

"Good, very good, with this alone, you have the ability to stand shoulder to shoulder with the chiefs of the Five Great Academies."

"If you can awaken your Martial Soul a second time, you will completely surpass the five chiefs, and your talent will only be second to Mo Youu."

"Hmm." If it were the former Qing Lin, he would surely boast endlessly.

But now, he merely nodded and calmly said, "In a few days, the Vice Dean will help me awaken."

"No." Elder Yun Yuan shook his head, "The Vice Dean’s Martial Arts Saint Pill is not qualified enough."

"His refining skills are strong, but his cultivation and power are far from sufficient."

"The two of us will guide your awakening; our current Martial Arts Saint Pill is only second to the legendary level, enough to let you safely breakthrough."

"Two people?" Qing Lin was taken aback, "Two Martial Arts Saint Pills?"

"I heard that the second awakening of the Martial Soul requires only one Martial Arts Saint Pill."

"Who told you it was two?" Elder Yun Yuan and the others exchanged a glance and smiled, taking out a shining Saint Pill.

On the Saint Pill, a hint of blood color emanated.

Upon careful observation, it resembled a blood cloud.

"This is..." Qing Lin was shocked.

"Blood Cloud Holy Pill." Elder Yun Yuan said solemnly, "Two years ago, Wu Shi and I used heart power to cultivate a Martial Arts Saint Pill."

"This Martial Arts Saint Pill combines my strongest defensive Sword Dao and Wu Shi’s strongest offensive Sword Dao, and in terms of level, it matches that of regular legendary level Martial Arts Saint Pill."

Qing Lin furrowed his brow, "Two elders, this Blood Cloud Holy Pill was prepared for Junior Brother Xiao Yi, wasn’t it?"

"If given to me, what about Junior Brother Xiao Yi?"

"You needn’t worry." Elder Yun Yuan shook his head, smiling wryly, "We asked Xiao Yi, but he didn’t want it."

"I presume he has another plan."

"That kid always makes people worry, yet he never really needs others to worry." Deacon Hui laughed.

"Your Martial Soul can only be guaranteed to awaken with a Martial Arts Saint Pill of this level."

"What is my Martial Soul?" Qing Lin scoffed, "Junior Brother Xiao Yi’s Martial Soul is truly..."

Qing Lin wanted to say, Junior Brother Xiao Yi’s Martial Soul is Twin Martial Souls, truly impressive.

But he recalled he promised Xiao Yi to keep it a secret, so he stopped speaking.

"Thank you, elders." Qing Lin accepted the Blood Cloud Holy Pill and bowed, "With this, I am more confident."

"Confident in what?" Elder Yun Yuan and the others looked puzzled.

Qing Lin’s expression was serious, "I hope one day I can fight side by side with Junior Brother Xiao Yi."

"To truly fight side by side." Qing Lin emphasized the word ’truly’, "Unafraid of dark clouds, fearless against the heavens."
