“The martial world is the martial world. The court is the court. The territories of the five sky kings are the territories of the five kings. Maybe somebody can make a change, but not Brotherhood Alliance…” The man in golden robe blandly said, “We can live with the Hall of Returning Nature and the House of Chaotic Storms. Can’t we live with the Monarch’s Hall? No matter what, the rise of the Monarch’s Hall will never be a problem for us!”

Shangguan Lingxiao was sweating. “That’s correct.”

“If possible, we should even share our resources with the Monarch’s Hall. Well, let’s call it cooperation.” The man in the golden robe said, “We should give up something to keep out our brothers from death. What we want is to bring survival to our brothers when they have lost hope to survive.”

The man in the golden robe said, “The last thing we should do is to treat a new organization as our enemy! That is our principle!”

Shangguan Lingxiao was sweating heavily. He stood up and lowered his head. “Big Brother, I was wrong.”

The man in the golden robe nodded and said, “We should watch the Great Ye Army, and be ready to attack at any time. Meanwhile, we should keep an eye on the Monarch’s Hall but just wait… We will try to be a friend rather than an enemy to the Monarch’s Hall!”

He spoke slowly, but strongly.

Everybody was thinking and nodding.

“Now, tell me about the Xiao Monarch…” The man in the golden robe smiled and said, “Where is he now? We must pay attention!”

“The Matchless Soul Valley!” Shangguan Lingxiao said.

“Oh, he has reached the Matchless Soul Valley…” The man in the golden robe blandly smiled and said, “That really is quite a barrier for him.”

“If Monarch Ye can pass three of the nineteen restricted areas, somebody come and tell me.” The man in the golden robe stood up and said, “Lingxiao will take charge of the rest. I should go to sleep now. I have used too much of my brain. I got a headache!”

He stood up and directly walked out.

Shangguan Lingxiao bitterly smiled. ‘That is typically my dear Big Brother.’

‘It seems smart to only take care of the important parts.’

‘Well, it could also be irresponsible.’

‘If he can be more responsible, I don’t need to spend so much time, and I won’t treat everybody as our enemy! I am just worried!’

“The monster in the Matchless Soul Valley isn’t easy to deal with…” Peng Zhuiyun smirked.

“It is not our problem. What concerns me is the Heaven’s Leaf. Anything?” Shangguan Lingxiao asked.

“None. The Seven Golden Lotuses aren’t moving either. Nobody is showing up.” Somebody answered.

Shangguan Lingxiao frowned and said, “That is weird…”

“Well, if nothing happens in the City of Chaos, let’s pay more attention to the Matchless Soul Valley.” Shangguan Lingxiao gave the order.

“If the Xiao Monarch can’t get through the pass, we make no change on the former arrangement. If he passes it, call our brothers in the Matchless Soul Valley back immediately!”

Shangguan Lingxiao took a deep breath and said, “We want the martial world… What does the Xiao Monarch want?”

…

What did the Xiao Monarch want?

In fact, even Ye Xiao didn’t know yet.

“I just have to keep going forward.”

Ye Xiao looked at the clouds and fog over the Matchless Soul Valley. He looked expressionless.

“Forward. That is the way to the Matchless Soul Valley.

“I want to go forward… I am not sure where I am going. I am sure about one thing though—I will kill anybody who dares to stand in my way!

“There are two options I have when people stand in my way. I will either be cut into pieces or cut the enemy into pieces. I will go to the end of the world!

“No matter what stops me, I will break through and keep going!

“I have no choice!”

Ye Xiao showed a weird smile. He had a strong will.

The Matchless Soul Valley!

What a matchless place.

After thousands of feet, Ye Xiao realized that there were no living things in the Matchless Soul Valley—no plants, no animals, no living beings!

There were only rocks.

It seemed no souls could live in this place!

“Lord Monarch, I might not make a clear explanation. If you only want to get past the nineteen passes, it wouldn’t be too difficult!”

The King of Poisons hastily said, “All you need to do is to keep yourself low. Don’t act like the One Meter Higher Sky anymore. As some ordinary people, we can easily get past the passes… The nineteen restricted areas won’t just stop everybody… After all, this is the only artery that connects the east and the west of the Limitless Ocean.”

Ye Xiao smiled and said, “Oh? It turns out to be pretty easy to get past the nineteen passes…”

The King of Poisons was sweating. “As long as we stay low, we will make it. Well, there is one thing we have to do. Put some money on the rock before the foothill… Just a casual amount will buy us safety.”

The King of Poisons was nervous.

The Matchless Soul Valley was one of the nineteen restricted areas in the Limitless Ocean. It existed for such a long time that nobody remembered who the owner of this place was anymore. However, everybody knew that anybody who messed with the owner was killed in the recent one hundred thousand years.

Those who humbly paid the money got past safely. In fact, the rest of the nineteen passes were no difference. All it took was some money to safely get through the passes!

Ye Xiao frowned and said, “What? Isn’t it a toll?”

In fact, Ye Xiao knew that the King of Poisons was being thoughtful. Nobody was asking for a toll after all, but spending a little money on safety was always a good choice. Fighting against a super-powerful cultivator for a little money was the worst choice. It was stupid.

However, Lord Monarch wasn’t willing to accept it.

Since he came to the Human Realm Upon Heavens, he had been through a lot. After Ye Yunduan and Yue Youyou showed up, Ye Xiao had changed. He started to dislike the acknowledged powerful cultivators. He wanted to challenge every one of them. Paying a toll touched his nerve!

‘I am not going to pay a toll to somebody who doesn’t even show himself, am I?’

‘I will fight for my own safety. I don’t buy safety!’

Luckily, Ye Xiao had just eaten the supreme dan bead Erhuo made and got a breakthrough after that. He was now at the eighth level of the Saint Origin Stage.

Since the Cane of Void took root in the Boundless Space, the spiritual qi was several times purer than before. That accelerated Ye Xiao’s improvement. He was improving nonstop all the time.

With a treasure like that, he became more confident. He even had a delusion. ‘I can even compete with the five sky kings if they dare to challenge me!’

That was supercilious!

However, he soon realized it. He was truly impressively experienced as this was his second life.

“It has been too easy for me to be the One Meter Higher Sky these days. I must have been too arrogant.”

Ye Xiao blandly smiled. “If I don’t make a change when something hit me in the head, I may never be able to get up again. Well, if I am truly invincible, the confidence may enhance me…

“I must have a sober mind, and take a careful adventure.

“If I can make it, it will be the start of my matchless journey!

“If I fail, I will learn a lot more to keep my mind sharp. I will get more experience in fighting a top-class cultivator.

“I have overestimated Fang Wudi before. I showed my trump card too early, and that fight didn’t teach me anything. It was boring. Now, in the Matchless Soul Valley, any possible fight will be my first practice!”

Ye Xiao moved ahead.

It seemed he was explaining to the King of Poisons. However, the King of Poisons knew that Ye Xiao said those words to himself because the Lord Monarch didn’t need to explain anything to anybody.

He just wanted himself to keep it in mind.

‘He has the Heart of the Strong and an indomitable spirit!’

The King of Poisons thought. ‘He knows there is a powerful man who stares at him fiercely, but he isn’t scared. He won’t back off.’

‘If he retreats, his heart becomes imperfect.’

‘He can accept failure!’

‘At least he has tried when he fails. At least he knows how far he is from a really powerful cultivator!’

The King of Poisons looked at Ye Xiao, who was casually walking ahead. He had one thing in his head but didn’t dare to tell that to Ye Xiao.

‘Failure could be a good thing. That is right. However, what if you die because of the failure? A dead man is a dead man. There is nothing to learn for a dead man!’

He didn’t dare to speak it out.

After all, although he wasn’t willing to follow the young lord, in the beginning, he respected the young lord now.

He respected Ye Xiao sincerely.

‘At least he has the courage and spirit that I never have.’

…

That was the day.

In the history of the Human Realm Upon Heavens, it was an important day.

‘Eleven years before the Monarch Calendar began, the great lord, Xiao Monarch, aged twenty, wearing a long cyan robe, and holding a sword in hand, with the power of level eight of the Saint Origin Stage, stepped onto the soil of the Matchless Soul Valley. The legend started!’
