Against The Gods
Chapter 35 –Birth Secrets

On the outskirts of Floating Cloud City, in the corner of an empty house.

Xiao Che sat there quietly and placed his helpless body against the cold wall behind him. Those lifeless glistening eyes stared into space, as if his soul had left his body. He's been in this position for a few hours now.

In the Azure Cloud Continent, he was abandoned by his parents and until his death, he never knew who his biological parents were. The only relationship he had with them was the pendant he always carried with him in front of his chest.

In Blue Wind Empire, both of his parents died when he was young but at least he knew who his parents were, and their names. He even had a grandfather, and a little aunt.However, the Gods decided to pull another cruel joke at him. Everything is unexpected, everything is fake.

Her grandfather was not an actual grandfather and the little aunt was not an actual aunt either …

He still did not know who his parents really were, and did not even know what his own surname was.

The two life experiences had widened his mind, but as before, he was still unable to accept this brief and sudden to not know his roots, and where he came from.

Who exactly am I ... and, where should I go next?

The expulsion from the Xiao Clan meant that he would never be able to set foot in the Xiao Clan and step up again. In his heart, he knew very well that not only could he not stay for long in the Xiao Clan, he was also unable to stay in Floating Cloud City. The only reason he didn't leave was because he was worried about his grandfather and little aunt; at the very least he wanted to ensure their safety.

Time slowly flowed from morning until noon, and once again until the sky slowly, but eventually, it became dark.

Although he had not eaten all day, Xiao Che still did not feel any hunger. When the sun had taken back its last ray of light and completely set, Xiao Che finally raised his head slightly, as those lifeless eyes were slowly condensed into a terrifying ray, which he had lost, it was as if it belonged to an evil spirit. Suddenly, he started laughing out loud, the corner of his lips curled up as he laughed out loud, akin to an evil spirit from hell.

Amidst his terrifying laughter, he slowly extended his hand and a dark green blade appeared above his palm … It was indeed one of the Star Concealing Grass that he found in the back mountain on the day he married Xia Qingyue. As he stared at the Star Concealing Grass, a dark green light suddenly shot out from his palm, enveloping the Star Concealing Grass within it. Under the dark green light, the Star Concealing Grass began to spin and turn strangely, shrink, and change color.

Xiao Che blew gently and scattered all the dark green powder. Only a transparent pearl had involuntarily appeared left in his palm.

This was the core of the Sky Poison Pearl and also the most heaven-defying ability itself!

In order to create medicines, various herbs are required to be crushed, processed, put together, plus very deep energy for additional effects, and others. This process was not only complicated but also unavoidable and caused a loss of a certain amount of medicinal strength. Next, there will always be a probability of failure. Especially when it came to high-grade medicine, not only would a large amount of gold be needed to purchase rare materials, the chances of failure were also very high and after failing, everything would be gone. In addition, not everyone has the ability to obtain higher medicinal values. There were extremely high requirements for alchemist abilities, atmosphere, and effects that were added using profound energy.

However, if one were to use the medicinal refinement of the Sky Poison Pearl, there was absolutely no need to worry about any of this. This was because it could quickly refine the most important part of the herb in the shortest possible time and fuse it perfectly, there is no chance of failure! As for the unused parts, they would be discarded by the Sky Poison Pearl. After recognizing the owner, he could even follow the owner's thoughts to refine and fuse a certain percentage of ingredients.

This terrifying ability is enough to make a human being go crazy wherever he is in this world. At that moment, the reason why every top-tier clan in the Azure Cloud Continent chased after him was not because of the poisonous abilities of the Sky Poison Pearl, but because of the terrifying refinement and refining abilities!

As long as there were suitable and sufficient ingredients, through the Sky Poison Pearl would safely become the most perfect medicine in the shortest time.

If the Sky Poison Pearl's abilities were to spread in the Profound Sky Continent, it would definitely cause a commotion and the number of people chasing Xiao Che's life would not be inferior compared to the Azure Cloud Continent.

Looking at the transparent pearl in his hand, Xiao Che's smile became even more sinister. He opened his mouth, placed it inside, and directly swallowed it. Furthermore, his body suddenly trembled and slowly vanished in place …. As if it suddenly evaporated.

[Star Concealing Pill]: It only requires one Star Concealing Grass for successful medicine Making. Once consumed, [Perfect Invisibility] will be activated for 3 hours. Regardless of the body, sounds, smells, and objects on the body, all would be completely hidden!

The Star Concealing Grass was an unimaginable object. But the Star Concealing Pill that was created from it, was even more unexpected! Because what was bestowed exceeded the common sense of human knowledge in the Profound Sky Continent, it was so great that no one dared to imagine the miraculous effects it would face. Xiao Che truly believed that he had used the Star Concealing Pill for the first time in the Profound Sky Continent because of it in this world, he had, the only material for the Star Concealing Pill was the Star Concealing Grass and the only one who could refine the Star Concealing Grass was the Sky Poison Pearl.

Xiao Che stood up and walked towards the Xiao Clan without form, sound and smell.

The sky was already dark and the lights within the Xiao Clan were lit up.

Xiao Che stepped through the gate of the Xiao Clan and leisurely walked straight, without the slightest trace of caution in his posture. As the disciples of the Xiao Clan walked past him, no one glanced at him. After consuming the Star Concealing Pill, the concealment achieved was said to be perfect, as it not only made the body transparent, even the external and internal presence would be completely hidden, as it would not only make the body transparent, it was as if someone was completely hidden in an invisible space crack. When he first used the Star Concealing Pill at the time in the Azure Cloud Continent, even a clan master who entered within the top ten on the continent was unable to find it while he was within ten steps.

The conclusion of the Xiao Clan meeting today established the extremely clear selection of Xiao Yulong who would accompany Xiao Kuangyun's group to the Xiao Sect the next day.

When he arrived at the Living Room, Xiao Che stopped in his steps as he quietly listened to the conversation inside.

“Yulong, about the departure tomorrow with Young Master Xiao to the Xiao Sect, you should always remember the kindness of Young Master Xiao today!”

“That's only natural, Xiao Yulong will remember the good help of Young Master Xiao and the great kindness …. Yulong once again offered Young Master Xiao three cups …. “

“…. Xiao Yulong, although today has failed, his mistake is not yours. Who would have imagined that Xia Qingyue was actually a disciple of Frozen Cloud Asgard? Your character is actually one that I like, so as long as you are properly obedient in the Xiao Sect, I will not treat you unfairly. “

“Thank you …. Thank you Young Master Xiao! Young Master Xiao, you are truly my greatest benefactor. Yulong will definitely be loyal to Young Master Xiao, and will not betray …. I did not expect Xia Qingyue's affairs …. But the plan of trapping Xiao Lingxi .. was not entirely in vain. Although Young Master Xiao was unable to touch him because of the nearby Chu Yueli, Young Master Xiao only found an excuse to return here after about a year. How could Xiao Lingxi have escaped back then …. Hehehe …. “

………………

Xiao Yulong's tone of voice was somewhat careless, and it was clear that he had already become drunk. As Xiao Che was listening, the look on his face grew even colder as his two fists tightened. After which, he turned around to go towards the East Courtyard. As it exited the Eastern Courtyard, there was a short dagger in his hand that came out of nowhere. Then, he once again moved towards the direction of the northern courtyard.

Page number North 11 was Xiao Yulong's page and currently, there was not a single person in sight. Xiao Che pushed open the door and entered. In the middle of the room, he caught a glimpse of the layout. After which, he coldly laughed and walked towards the window right in front of him. Raising the short knife, he stabbed into the middle of the window and then took out the dagger. The smashed window above suddenly grew an additional fist-sized hole.

Then, Xiao Che simply stood quietly by the side and quietly waited for Xiao Yulong to arrive.

He did not need to wait for long, as the sound of footsteps came half an hour later. Next, the door of the room was opened and Xiao Yulong who was drunk from wine was swaying inside with Xiao Yang's support.

“Boss, when you enter the Xiao Sect, you must not forget the years of devotion from this little sister, who has always been on your call.” Xiao Yang licked as he lifted Xiao Yulong onto the bed.

Even if he were to die, he would still never think that there was currently one person left where he was now standing; that was soundless, motionless, and coldly observing him.

“Oh ... huu ...”

Xiao Yulong was drunk to the point of unconsciousness as he fell straight onto the bed and vaguely responded with two voices that were only made because he was moaning.

Xiao Che walked in front of Xiao Yulong's bed and slowly raised the short dagger in his hand.

In a direct confrontation, he was definitely not a match for Xiao Yulong. Even with the support of the Star Concealing Grass, there was no certainty that he could kill Xiao Yulong. This was because even if one was completely helpless, in the event of an attack, the profound energy of the body would release and protect itself conditionally. His body which basically lacked profound energy and the ordinary dagger he held in his hand might not be able to pierce through the body of Xiao Yulong, who possessed the profound strength of the third level of the Nascent Profound Realm.

The Star Concealing Pill's hiding ability was not entirely invincible. During the period of invisibility, if one came into contact with a hidden body, invisibility would be immediately canceled. If his attack misses and is otherwise touched by the opponent, he is really stuck in a predicament.

But right now, Xiao Yulong was already drunk, so that was the right opportunity.

He took a look at the location of the hole he had pierced in the window earlier, and after confirming its position, he narrowed his eyes as the dagger in his hand suddenly fell down. He used the strength all over his body to ruthlessly stick it on the left side of Xiao Yulong's Dantian, a spot two inches below the navel …. At the moment of penetrating it, he immediately jumped back and stood in the corner of the room.

The stab could have cut Xiao Yulong's throat and taken his life, but he chose not to.

How could he let Xiao Yulong just die? How could it possibly unleash hatred in his heart?

He wanted to completely destroy Xiao Yulong's beautiful dream; to let him experience the fall from heaven to hell, and let him hope that he would be better off dead!

Fun show, it's just getting started.
