Chapter 831: I Am Omniscient

"Seniors, why haven’t you called for assistance yet?"

Qin Qing noticed that after Qiu Lianye and Tu Baili heard Ye Xiu’s words, they didn’t summon the people from the Sword Cottage to receive the totem. Instead, they looked at Ye Xiu as if he were a fool, prompting her question.

"Sword Master, forgive my presumptuousness, but what exactly is Mr. Ye doing?" Qiu Lianye asked softly.

Only then did Qin Qing realize that Qiu Lianye and Tu Baili didn’t believe what Ye Xiu had said, so she simply stopped urging them to call for assistance.

Everything could wait until Nantian Jun and Beigong Wudi had finished receiving the totem.

Quickly!

Ye Xiu released Nantian Jun and Beigong Wudi, and the golden light on their bodies also vanished.

"This... Mr. Ye, you actually managed to do this?" Nantian Jun exclaimed in shock.

Beigong Wudi spread his hands, a water ball forming in his palms, as he marveled:

"Heavens, if I hadn’t experienced it myself, I wouldn’t believe under any circumstances that high-level totems could be gifted to others. I actually awakened a sixth-stage Water System Totem all at once."

Hearing them speak this way, Qiu Lianye and Tu Baili felt like they had been struck by lightning.

Does Ye Xiu truly have hundreds of totems stored in him?

Can Ye Xiu really gift totems to others?

"You two go call for assistance, Mr. Ye, it’s now my and Tu Baili’s turn."

Qiu Lianye said breathlessly, already eager to receive a totem from Ye Xiu.

"Yes, yes, you two have accepted the totem; it’s our turn now," Tu Baili said, his old face flushed with excitement.

Nantian Jun and Beigong Wudi completely understood how they felt and readily agreed to undertake the task of ’calling for assistance’.

At this moment, the Sword Cottage F4 felt no intimidation from the three Judicator Families; instead, they had mysterious confidence that under Ye Xiu’s leadership, the Sword Cottage could overthrow the three Judicator Families.

And under Qin Qing’s leadership, the Sword Cottage would surely regain its former glory; after all, with the phenomenal support of Ye Xiu, it was almost impossible for the Sword Cottage not to rise.

...

As Ye Xiu was gifting totems to Qiu Lianye and Tu Baili, Long Li returned home.

"Why did you come back so soon? Isn’t Ye Xiu at the Nanxi Courtyard?" Long Qianzhang asked.

"Today feels off!"

Long Li recounted in detail how he had been slapped once by Qin Qing, once by ’Amma’, and once by the beautiful gatekeeper at the Nanxi Courtyard, and how ’Amma’ had broken free from Purple Pupil control.

The three tigers of the Long Family were silent for a moment.

Long Qianzhang said, "Ali, your Sixth Realm Martial Artist strength and Fifth Stage Purple Pupil were both forcibly achieved with external help. You’re too young and can’t yet harness the Purple Pupil’s abilities, so it’s no wonder ’Amma’ lost control."

Long Qianxiang continued, "Qin Qing slapping you likely means she’s aware of your relationship with Ye Xiu and has instructed the gatekeeper not to let you see Ye Xiu, which proves that Ye Xiu likes you. As long as you can meet Ye Xiu, you might even be able to push Qin Qing aside."

Long Li thought this made sense and said:

"But I’ve exposed the Purple Pupil to Qin Qing. If she tells Ye Xiu, then it’ll be difficult for me to get close to Ye Xiu again."

This indeed was a difficult situation.

The three tigers of the Long Family furrowed their brows.

Long Qianzhang said, "Old Third, you should make a trip and ambush near the Nanxi Courtyard. Once Qin Qing and ’Amma’ return, immediately use your Purple Pupil to control them."

"Alright!" Long Qianfan nodded, standing up to head to the Nanxi Courtyard.

He lay in wait near the Nanxi Courtyard, found a patch of grass, and burrowed underground, leaving only his head exposed, patiently waiting.

However, Long Qianfan didn’t realize that Ye Xiu planned to transfer 571 totems from his storage to 571 people, a task that couldn’t be completed quickly.

Even so, after waiting for more than half an hour, Long Qianfan saw a beautiful woman, with a backpack, leaving the Nanxi Courtyard, destination unknown.

Long Qianfan neither attacked nor stopped her.

If he did stop her, he would discover that the woman’s backpack was filled with Life Totems and Golden Blood.

It was Chloe, whom Ye Xiu had called to deliver Life Totems and Golden Blood to the Sword Cottage.

Long Qianfan waited until noon!

No sign of Ye Xiu or Qin Qing;

Evening came, and still no sign of Ye Xiu or Qin Qing;

Long Qianfan was starving!

But he didn’t dare leave to eat, fearing that he might miss the moment ’Amma’ and Qin Qing returned to the Nanxi Courtyard if he did.

The Eternal Kingdom’s phones weren’t working, so he couldn’t order delivery.

"Have I waited all day for nothing?"

Long Qianfan felt incredibly frustrated, breathing heavily, comforting himself:

"I can’t be impatient now. I think ’Amma’ and Qin Qing should be on their way back. I’ll endure a little longer."

He forced himself to endure the impatience and continued to wait.

Meanwhile, at the Sword Cottage, Ye Xiu had been busy all day, and he still hadn’t distributed even half of the totems he had.

At this time, he, Qin Qing, and the Sword Cottage F4 were dining at the summit of One Sword Peak, while also discussing the sword that their founder had embedded in a boulder.

After Qin Qing took the sword, she imbued it with the Sword Dao of the Sword Cottage’s founder.

Instantly, the rusty, broken sword transformed into an incredibly exquisite silver sword.

Even Ye Xiu had to acknowledge this.

Qin Qing indeed was the person the Sword Cottage’s founder had spoken of, the one who could lead the Sword Cottage to rise again.

"Sword Master!"

At this moment, a disciple of the Sword Cottage ran up to One Sword Peak and respectfully said:

"Reporting to the Sword Master, a girl named Jiang Keqing is looking for Brother Ji."

The Sword Cottage F4 looked towards Ye Xiu and Qin Qing, unaware of who Jiang Keqing was.

"Bring her here!" Ye Xiu said.

"As you command!"

The Sword Cottage disciple ran back down the mountain and quickly returned to the peak of One Sword Peak with Jiang Keqing.

"What do you need from me?" Ye Xiu asked.

"This..." Jiang Keqing indicated that Ye Xiu should dismiss the others.

"Everyone here is one of us. You can say anything," Ye Xiu stated.

Jiang Keqing was momentarily shocked. Since when had Ye Xiu become so familiar with the Sword Cottage?

But she didn’t inquire and instead replied:

"There are two matters:"

"First, my people have gathered all the scientists and technical talents from King Island."

Ye Xiu’s eyes lit up, and he asked, "Where have they been gathered?"

"Give me a totem, and I’ll tell you," Jiang Keqing took the opportunity to make a deal.

Ye Xiu deftly changed the subject: "Tell me the second matter!"

Jiang Keqing frowned slightly, thinking that in Ye Xiu’s mind, the scientists and technical talents from King Island weren’t worth a totem.

She continued, "The three Judicator Families have ordered all civilian martial artists from King Island to enlist, joining the army of the Eternal Kingdom, and head to the four ports in the east, west, south, and north of King Island to eliminate the invading enemies..."

As she spoke, Jiang Keqing felt dejected. Ye Xiu had previously said that if the Heavenly Sect could persuade the civilian martial artists to resist the three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom, he would give her a totem.

"I already knew about this matter this morning."

Ye Xiu interjected, saying:

"King Island’s civilian martial artists, very few dare to defy the orders of the three Judicator Families. They’re all probably registering with the Official Family in their respective cities, aren’t they?"

Jiang Keqing was taken aback: "How do you know that?"

It was Sword Saint Ge Qing who told him!

Ye Xiu shrugged: "When it comes to King Island, there’s nothing I don’t know."

Jiang Keqing was astonished, thinking that Ye Xiu’s intelligence network on King Island was even more powerful than the Heavenly Sect’s, and she asked:

"The number of civilian martial artists on King Island exceeds a million, including many Seventh Realm War Gods. The ragtag group you’ve gathered from Phoenix Perch Island and Drunken Fairy Island is no match for them, not to mention the army of the Eternal Kingdom. How do you plan to deal with this?"
