Chapter 60: The Endless Sea

Miaomiao Pavilion.

This was a mysterious force, mainly engaged in auctions, selling all kinds of rare and precious resources for martial artists. Miaomiao Pavilion had only one outpost in the Tianshen City of the Merchant Alliance.

It was said that the backing of Miaomiao Pavilion was a martial artist force from the Endless Sea. The Endless Sea was to the east of the Merchant Alliance, an endless expanse of ocean.

According to legend, the Endless Sea contained tens of thousands of islands, like stars scattered across the vast sea. It was said that some of the larger islands were even bigger than the combined territories of the Flame Empire and the Divine Favor Empire.

Martial artists from the Endless Sea rarely came to this area. The martial artists there had high standards, with numerous powerful figures and complex martial families and forces.

It was rumored that in the Endless Sea, there were terrifying experts who had reached the Divine Realm!

On this day, Kuro, the head of Miaomiao Pavilion, stood at the entrance. Kuro was a master at the First Heaven of Nirvana, long stationed at Miaomiao Pavilion.

To many people, Kuro was the owner of Miaomiao Pavilion.

But today, Kuro was bowing, anxiously waiting with a group of important figures from Miaomiao Pavilion.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, Kuro had waited from morning until evening, but there was not a hint of impatience on his face.

"Father, how much longer do we have to wait? Who is the person coming?" Kuro's only son, Kuba, said impatiently, "This person is really putting on airs, making us wait so long!"

"Boy, you were born in the Merchant Alliance and have no idea how vast the outside world is! Don't think that the Beiming Family is the most powerful family on the continent. Compared to the powerful families in the Endless Sea, the Beiming Family is nothing!"

Kuro glared at his son and said coldly, "I am originally from the Endless Sea, sent here by the Xia Family to manage Miaomiao Pavilion. The person coming today is Miss Xia Xinyan of the Xia Family, my master. If it weren't for the appearance of a fragment of the map leading to the 'Heavenly Gate,' she wouldn't have wasted time traveling all the way from the Endless Sea."

"Father, isn't this area the center of the Divine Favor Continent?" Kuba was stunned, and after a long pause, he asked in shock.

"Here? The center of the Divine Favor Continent?" Kuro sneered and shook his head. "The Flame Empire, the Divine Favor Empire, and the Merchant Alliance are just remote areas of the Divine Favor Continent. How can they be considered the center? Remember, the vastness of the Divine Favor Continent exceeds your imagination. The so-called experts here are just ordinary martial artists in the outside world!"

"Ah?" Kuba was horrified.

The sun set, and the moon gradually rose high in the dark night sky. Under the bright moonlight, Kuba continued to wait anxiously.

It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that three figures slowly appeared on the long street.

Under the red lanterns on both sides of the street, the shadows of the three people swayed, like fierce ghosts with their fangs bared.

"They're here! No one is to speak except me!" Kuro barked.

The leading figure was slender, clearly a woman, but her entire body was wrapped in a black robe, and she wore a large hood that covered her face.

Beside this woman were two towering giants, both over two meters tall, with identical appearances, clearly twins.

The two giants, like iron towers, had dark skin and a heavy aura like a mountain, yet their steps were light, giving the strange impression that they weighed nothing at all.

"Miss, you have finally arrived." Kuro bowed, head lowered, and said respectfully, "Kuro has been waiting for a long time."

"Let's go inside and talk."

A melodious voice, like a heavenly sound, came from under the hood. The woman didn't waste words, her graceful figure passing through Kuro and heading straight for the inner part of Miaomiao Pavilion, as if she were the master wherever she went.

"Of course." Kuro smiled and nodded, following her step by step, secretly letting out a sigh of relief.

In a secluded room in the inner courtyard of Miaomiao Pavilion.

The woman, wrapped in a black robe, naturally sat in the central position of the room. After the two giants stood still, she waved her hand and said, "Kuro, stay. The rest of you, leave."

"Everyone, leave." Kuro frowned and shouted at the various heads of Miaomiao Pavilion, giving his son Kuba a stern glare.

Kuro was the head here, and at his command, everyone hurriedly dispersed, leaving the room.

Kuro entered, first bowing to the woman, then took out a ledger from his chest and presented it with both hands, saying, "This is the account for the past few years, please review it, Miss."

"Put the ledger away. I didn't come here to check the accounts."

The woman under the hood waved her hand, casually removing her hood to reveal a face of unparalleled beauty. She frowned slightly and said softly, "Give me the fragment of the map."

"Yes." Kuro hurriedly took out the fragment of the map related to the "Heavenly Gate" from his inner garment and respectfully handed it to her.

Xia Xinyan's delicate fingers picked up the fragment, glanced at it, and nodded lightly, "Good, the age seems to be correct."

"Miss, there are also three Heaven-Filling Pills and a Blood Spirit Crystal here. They were sent through the Spirit Void Array by the Immortal Yang Family, specifically for you."

Kuro took out a few items from his chest and respectfully handed them to Xia Xinyan, saying, "They said that with these three Heaven-Filling Pills, Miss will be able to handle the situation here. They mentioned that each time you use your 'Cycle Martial Soul,' you suffer severe injuries, and the Heaven-Filling Pills will help you avoid any aftereffects."

"The Yang Family is really generous and full of themselves!" Xia Xinyan snorted, "Miaomiao Pavilion isn't just the Xia Family's. The Yang Family is the largest shareholder of Miaomiao Pavilion. They didn't even send a person, just three Heaven-Filling Pills. They really trust me."

Xia Xinyan, while speaking, put away the three dragon-eye-sized red Heaven-Filling Pills and then touched the Blood Spirit Crystal, asking, "What about this Blood Spirit Crystal?"

"Miss, the Yang Family wants you to find someone. The head of the Yang Family, Emperor Yang Qing, personally said that he used the 'Blood Seeking Technique' to determine that his grandson, Yang Hai, is still alive and in this area. He wants you to find his grandson on this trip. These three Heaven-Filling Pills are the reward." Kuro lowered his head, not daring to look at Xia Xinyan, and stammered.

"What?" A flash of anger crossed Xia Xinyan's beautiful face, and she said coldly, "I see, the Yang Family is being so generous because these three Heaven-Filling Pills are to make me do their bidding. The Yang Family is becoming more and more arrogant!"

Kuro lowered his head even more, not daring to say a word.

"Miss, fifty years ago, Emperor Yang Qing and the experts of the Yang Family entered the 'Fourth Demon Realm.' In the 'Fourth Demon Realm,' his son, Yang Xiao, died in battle, and his daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby not long after. After killing a Demon Lord in the 'Fourth Demon Realm,' the other three Demon Lords, enraged, joined forces to chase Emperor Yang Qing. His daughter-in-law also died in battle. Emperor Yang Qing, thinking he couldn't escape, used the 'Blood Escape Technique' to tear through space and directly sent the baby out of the 'Fourth Demon Realm.'"

At this moment, one of the giants behind Xia Xinyan explained the secret in a hoarse voice.

"Then what happened?" Xia Xinyan frowned slightly, asking calmly.

The giant paused, thinking for a moment, and then continued, "After sending the baby out, Emperor Yang Qing stayed in the 'Fourth Demon Realm' for twenty years before being surrounded by the three Demon Lords. Although he was severely injured, he managed to return from the 'Fourth Demon Realm.' Recently, Emperor Yang Qing emerged from seclusion, reaching the Third Heaven of the Divine Realm. When he sent the baby out of the 'Fourth Demon Realm,' he planted a drop of his lifeblood in the baby's body. After emerging from seclusion, Emperor Yang Qing used the 'Blood Seeking Technique' to sense that the baby was in this direction, so he sent the three Heaven-Filling Pills. He cares... about the bloodline of the Yang Family."

"The three Demon Lords in the 'Fourth Demon Realm' are becoming active again. Emperor Yang Qing is probably too busy to come in person," the other giant added.

"Right, the Yang Family has sent word that one of their three Asura Kings, Xiao Han Yi, has already set out from the Immortal Island with fifty Asura Blood Guards. Xiao Han Yi will be here in at most a month. He hopes that Miss can find the person before Asura King Xiao Han Yi arrives," Kuro said slowly, head still lowered.

"Asura King Xiao Han Yi! Fifty Asura Blood Guards!" Xia Xinyan snorted, "It seems Emperor Yang Qing really cares about that baby!"

"The Yang Family is arrogant in the Endless Sea and has offended many people. In recent years, the Yang Family has been constantly battling demons in the 'Fourth Demon Realm,' and the number of Yang Family members with the 'Immortal Martial Soul' has decreased. The baby is Emperor Yang Qing's grandson, born to Yang Xiao. It's no wonder he cares so much," one of the giants said.

"Kuro, from now on, I will be in charge of Miaomiao Pavilion. You don't need to worry about this place. Focus on finding Emperor Yang Qing's grandson. Asura King Xiao Han Yi is coming. If the person isn't found by then, I won't feel right accepting these three Heaven-Filling Pills. Do you understand my meaning?" Xia Xinyan looked at Kuro indifferently.

"I understand, Miss." Kuro nodded.

"I'll keep the Blood Spirit Crystal for now. Once you find the person named Yang Hai, just bring him to Miaomiao Pavilion. This Blood Spirit Crystal, which Emperor Yang Qing has tampered with, will know who Yang Hai is." Xia Xinyan touched the Blood Spirit Crystal, speaking casually.

"Alright, I'll take my leave now." Kuro bowed and retreated. Once he was out of the room, he sighed and muttered, "The five major families are looking for Ding Yan, and now I have to find Yang Hai. The Merchant Alliance is really going to be lively now."
