High Martial Arts: I Travel Through Heaven and Earth Through Dreams

Chapter 268 Blood Soul Saint Lord

"Su Muqing".

The Blood Soul Saint Lord's voice, with its unique magnetism, echoed in the empty hall.

"You did a great job this time."

"I originally thought that destroying one or two spirit mines of the Taiyan Holy Land, or killing a few inner disciples, would be a great achievement."

"I didn't expect this..."

The Holy Lord slowly sat up straight, his smile deepening.

"You've given me such a big surprise!"

"Not only did they plot to kill Li Daoyi, who possessed the 'Innate Dao Body,' but they also caused the Taiyan Holy Land to lose its hope for the next thousand years."

"Furthermore, he single-handedly instigated a riot among demonic beasts, igniting a full-scale war between the Taiyan Holy Land and the Dongxu Demon Clan!"

"I heard that old codger Qin from Taiyan was torn to pieces by a demonic beast?"

At this point, the Blood Soul Saint Lord couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle. Although the laughter was pleasant, it carried a chilling undertone.

"Giggle giggle..."

"This battle has severely damaged the Taiyan Holy Land's vitality, potentially costing it at least several thousand years, and it may even cause it to fall from its position as the number one holy land!"

"And all of this is thanks to you!"

Faced with the Holy Lord's blatant praise, Su Muqing lowered her head even further.

Her back was already soaked with cold sweat, and she was extremely panicked.

Only she knew that this was not her achievement at all.

She was just an audience member who kept shouting "666" the whole time.

Its sole purpose is to help the Taiyan Holy Land gather five quasi-holy sons and open the Void Realm.

The one who truly accomplished all of this was that terrifyingly powerful adult.

Remembering the instructions the official had given her before leaving, Su Muqing forcibly suppressed her guilty conscience and tried her best to appear "humble" and "loyal".

"You flatter me, Your Majesty."

Although Su Muqing's voice trembled slightly, to outsiders it sounded like she was excited.

"This disciple...this disciple was just lucky."

"Those demonic beasts have a long-standing grudge against the Taiyan Holy Land, like a pile of dry tinder that only needs a spark to ignite."

"I merely happened to be there and acted as a 'torch' to fan the flames."

At this point, she raised her head, looking at the woman on the throne with adoration, and said loudly:

"Moreover, if it weren't for Your Majesty's divine foresight and for your prior planning, as well as the many life-saving trump cards and divine soul treasures bestowed upon your disciple..."

"Even if this disciple possessed extraordinary abilities, it would be absolutely impossible to accomplish such a feat!"

"All of this... is thanks to the Holy Lord's guidance!"

Su Muqing's words were perfectly watertight.

He neither denied his own contributions nor failed to flatter the Holy Lord, attributing the greatest credit to the Holy Lord's wise leadership.

She never mentioned Lin Hanzhou's existence, not even daring to hint at it.

This was clearly at Lin Hanzhou's behest.

After all, Lin Hanzhou knew very well that his position as a high-ranking official was a facade, and he would definitely be exposed once he confronted the real high-ranking officials of the Blood Soul Holy Land.

That's why he made Su Muqing take all the blame upon herself.

In any case, the battle between more than a dozen eighth-level experts in that secret realm has already been completely destroyed.

With no one left to testify, he can make up whatever he wants.

"very good."

Sure enough, after hearing Su Muqing's heartfelt words, the Blood Soul Saint Lord's eyes showed even more admiration.

He is capable, knows when to advance and retreat, and is also incredibly loyal.

Such a disciple is truly a treasure bestowed upon the Blood Soul Holy Land by the heavens.

"Be neither arrogant nor impatient, and do not be proud of your achievements."

"Mu Qing, you are even more outstanding than I imagined."

With a wave of his sleeve, the Blood Soul Saint Lord sent a gentle yet irresistible force to lift Su Muqing up.

"Merit must be rewarded; this is the rule of my Blood Soul Holy Land."

"Issue my decree!"

Her voice suddenly became incredibly majestic, echoing throughout every corner of the Blood Soul Holy Land!

"From this day forward, Su Muqing is no longer in the Saintess rank, but has been officially conferred the title of—Saintess of the Blood Soul Holy Land!"

"And I will personally accept him as my last disciple!"

"Her status is equivalent to an eighth-rank elder; she doesn't need to bow to other elders and can freely mobilize all resources of the sect below the seventh rank!"

boom--!

The moment this decree was issued, the entire Blood Soul Holy Land erupted in excitement.

Saintess!

He is also the Holy Lord's last disciple!

This not only signifies unparalleled glory and status, but also means that as long as Su Muqing does not perish along the way, she is destined to take over the entire Blood Soul Holy Land and become its new empress!

……

Inside the main hall.

"Thank you very much, Master!"

Su Muqing knelt down again, this time, she was genuinely excited.

With a Holy Lord as her master, she could be considered a prominent figure even in the entire Tianxuan Realm.

Get up.

With a casual toss, the Blood Soul Saint Lord sent a storage ring radiating intense spatial fluctuations into Su Muqing's hand.

"There is a top-grade Void Seed in here, which was my treasured possession back then."

"In addition to these, there are many rare and precious materials that can help with breakthroughs."

"Go into seclusion and strive to break through to the seventh-level Void Realm as soon as possible."

"Only when you reach the seventh rank will you truly have the means to establish yourself in this world."

"Yes! This disciple will certainly live up to Master's high expectations!"

Su Muqing gripped the storage ring tightly, bowed again, and left the Holy Lord's Palace.

……

Inside the administrative hall at the outer gate of the Holy Land.

After leaving the Holy Lord's Hall, Su Muqing did not immediately go into seclusion.

She quietly arrived at the outer affairs hall of the Blood Soul Holy Land.

"Greetings, Your Highness!!"

Upon seeing the arrival of this newly conferred saintess, the fat steward of the affairs hall was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair. He scrambled out to greet her, his fat face full of fawning smiles.

"We were unaware of Your Highness's arrival and have failed to greet you properly. Please forgive us! Please forgive us!"

"No need for formalities."

Su Muqing's expression was aloof, and she reverted to her unapproachable goddess demeanor.

She glanced indifferently at the silent outer disciples around her, then looked at the fat steward.

"I have come here to give you a task."

"Holy Maiden, please give your orders! I will brave mountains of knives and seas of fire without batting an eye!"

The fat steward thumped his chest loudly.

"It's nothing serious."

Su Muqing casually took out a jade slip from her sleeve and tossed it to the fat steward.

"This is a distant relative I took in when I was undergoing trials in the mortal realm."

"He recently wanted to embark on the path of immortality and asked someone to come to me for help."

"Although he is of mediocre talent, I cannot refuse him out of consideration for our past relationship."

"Help me enter his name into the outer sect, and assign him any easy task so he won't be bullied."

"this one?"

The fat manager was clearly taken aback, thinking it was some earth-shattering event.

The result was that they used connections to get a relative into the system?

This kind of thing is all too common in the Holy Land.

Let alone a saintess, even an inner disciple could easily squeeze a few people into the outer sect.
