Chapter 1907 - 1890: Lord Ba

The elder in green clothes stood with his hands behind his back in the starry sky, and the spiritual sense of a Spirit Rank Martial Artist could not detect his presence at all.

He directly blocked the path of Dan Venerate Qiu Ren, but the latter did not dare to show any dissatisfaction and instead showed great respect.

At the same time, the starry sky of the First Layer Heaven began to tremble, and figures of powerful experts appeared, stepping through the void at great speed.

"Lord Ba, I didn’t expect you to come!"

"Lord Ba, is there something you wish to instruct us on your arrival at the First Layer Heaven?"

"Greetings, Lord Ba!"

...

These experts, all of whom are among the top ten on the Realm Spirit List, greeted the elder in green, faces full of smiles.

"Who exactly is this elder in green clothes?" Xiao Ye was filled with shock.

The existence of the top ten on the Realm Spirit List stands at the pinnacle of the Taixu Saint Realm. Each one is one in a billion. Even someone as powerful as Dan Venerate Qiu Ren cannot command or direct them. Yet, they were so courteous to this elder. Xiao Ye couldn’t imagine the elder’s identity.

"Xiao Ye, Brother Jiu Xiao, come here."

At this moment, the elder in green spoke, and his rolling sound waves pierced through hundreds of thousands of miles of the starry sky, exploding beside Xiao Ye and Jiu Xiao’s ears, causing their bodies to tremble and involuntarily soar into the sky, flying towards him.

Moments later, they regained consciousness and were immediately filled with immense shock.

"Brother Jiu Xiao, you arrived in the Taixu Saint Realm before me. Do you know the identity of this elder in green clothes?" In the starry sky, Xiao Ye and Jiu Xiao converged, and he quickly used his spiritual sense to transmit the question.

"The title ’Lord Ba’ reminds me of a certain rumor." At this moment, Jiu Xiao had an uncontrollable look of shock on his face.

"A rumor?" Xiao Ye’s heart stirred, listening intently.

"According to the rumor, the Human Clan Saint Rank expert Taixu Great Saint, who once suppressed a Great Realm, fought a bloody battle against the Nine Desolates with incredible strength. He once subdued a Holy-grade exotic beast—Ba Snake!"

"That Ba Snake was awed by Taixu Great Saint’s strength and became his mount," Jiu Xiao explained.

What!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye’s heart began to race.

This elder in green is actually a Holy-grade exotic beast? No wonder the other experts treated him so courteously.

In the Three Thousand Great Realms, anyone below the Holy Rank is considered an ant. No matter how strong a Spirit Rank expert is, they can be crushed with a single slap.

The fact that Taixu Great Saint could tame a Holy-grade exotic beast as a mount is an extraordinary feat.

The two, while exchanging ideas, flew side by side towards the elder in green.

Swish!

Swish!

As soon as Xiao Ye appeared, Dan Venerate Qiu Ren, who had been bowing his head, and Bai Wuliu, who had a face full of respect, immediately turned to look at him, their eyes flashing with coldness.

However, Xiao Ye remained quite calm.

He noticed that with the elder in green present, Dan Venerate Qiu Ren dared not act rashly. His greatest concern was whether the Time Tower would be exposed.

After all, standing before him was a Holy-grade exotic beast!

But soon, Xiao Ye realized he had overthought it. The elder in green simply glanced at him and then looked away.

"Alright, everyone is here."

"I have come here to assign a Great Realm Task to you all."

With his hands behind his back, the elder in green surveyed the group and spoke.

A Great Realm Task!

Upon hearing this, the ten experts in the starry sky turned pale.

They had only completed a Great Realm Task a few years ago, and now they had to embark on another so soon?

"Lord Ba, do you intend for Xiao Ye and Jiu Xiao to accompany us on the Great Realm Task?"

"They don’t possess Holy-grade Power and will only be a burden to us."

At this moment, a graceful woman with red eyes stepped forward, her hair fluttering as she spoke.

"This..."

Watching the red-eyed woman, Xiao Ye was left speechless.

For her voice matched exactly with the voice full of cold arrogance that had kept Bai Wuliu from using Holy-grade Power years ago.

He had not expected that the voice’s owner, full of cold arrogance, turned out to be a woman.

"Hehe, Gu Shuling, since Lord Ba has made such arrangements, he must have his reasons. Why must you say more?"

Before the elder in green could respond, Dan Venerate Qiu Ren sneered.

"Hmph, I see you just want Xiao Ye to die, so there will be no one to stop you from dealing with the son of the Dan Venerate," the red-eyed woman ruthlessly exposed.

"You!"

Dan Venerate Qiu Ren’s face turned red with anger as he glared at her.

"Enough!"

The elder in green clothes narrowed his eyes and spoke in a low voice, immediately causing both of them to tremble and bow their heads in silence.

"This Great Realm Task is extremely dangerous."

"You need to infiltrate the ’Primordial Great World’ and assassinate the son of the Demon Emperor of the Three Thousand Great Realms."

"The Demon Clan has betrayed their word, joining with other Ancient Clan Saint Rank experts, attempting to seize interests from our Human Clan. Assassinating his offspring will be a warning to him!" said the elder in green.

"What!"

After hearing the elder in green’s words, the ten experts’ faces changed drastically, and Xiao Ye drew in a sharp breath.

Although he did not have a deep understanding of the Three Thousand Great Realms, he roughly knew the distribution of forces there.

Especially the records about the Demon Clan were noted in a journal left by Jiang Kong among ancient relics.

In the Three Thousand Great Realms, myriad species exist, with the Demon Clan being one of them.

The Demon Clan was once glorious, producing many Demon Saints, but it was gradually buried by time, seeking survival by relying on the Human Clan.

However, the Demon Clan is cunning by nature, unwilling to be subordinate to the Human Clan, repeatedly aligning with other large clans.

"Assassinating the Demon Emperor’s son is probably very dangerous!" thought Xiao Ye to himself.

The Demon Emperor is not a True Spirit Continent Emperor Realm expert. He is of the Saint Transformation level. Attempting to assassinate his offspring is akin to courting death.

"Rest assured, Saint Rank experts of the Three Thousand Great Realms will not easily intervene. Even if a Demon Saint from the Demon Clan acts, there will be Human Clan Saint Rank experts to stop them."

"You just focus on dealing with the Demon Emperor’s son."

"If there are no objections, you will set out in a month. Prepare well, as Xiao Ye and Jiu Xiao will be going with you."

The elder in green once again spoke.

With his words, the ten experts dared not protest further, quickly departing after saluting.

A month is a short time, and they needed to prepare very well.

"Heh heh, this time you will not return." Dan Venerate Qiu Ren threw a cold smile at Xiao Ye before leaving.

Since Lord Ba designated that Xiao Ye should go on the Great Realm Task, he naturally wasn’t in a hurry to make a move.

"It seems troublesome this time," Xiao Ye mused.

Embarking on such a dangerous Great Realm Task without Holy-grade Power in hand made Xiao Ye and Jiu Xiao concerned!

"Xiao Ye!"

Just as Xiao Ye and Jiu Xiao were about to leave, the elder in green blocked him.
