Chapter 166: Chapter 165: Bai Xiaosheng Wants to Set Up Three Lists

Translator: 549690339

The assassins of the underworld were infamous across the land, yet no one knew exactly where the underworld was located.

In a mysterious place, the lord of the Underworld, Emperor Fengdu, sat high upon his throne, his long hair cascaded down his body. He was dressed in a black robe embroidered with the image of a Ghost God, giving an impression of inscrutable mystery.

Below, Yama King, the leader of the Ten Yama Lords, began to speak, “My lord, because of the affair with Ning King Zhu Chenhao, the underworld lost two first-grade martial artists of the Central Ghost Emperor, as well as King Chujiang and three second -grade martial artists who rule hell. We also lost a collective of ten grandmasters and pseudo-grandmasters of the third grade and nearly a hundred assassins of lower grades…”

As the first person under Fengdu ghost emperor, Yama King was deeply familiar with all underworld affairs, elaborating carefully the losses to the emperor.

After Yama King finished speaking, he stood there, waiting for the orders from the Fengdu ghost emperor.

Da, da, da,

The ghost emperor of Fengdu sat quietly on the throne, tapping the armrest lightly with his fingers, listening intently, not responding to what Yama King said as if these losses were trivial.

After a long while, the Fengdu ghost emperor spoke slowly, “The Netherworld book page will surface soon. Dispatch someone to retrieve it. As for other matters, put them aside for now. This is the most important task.”

“Yes!” Yama King had no doubt. The words of Emperor Fengdu in the underworld were absolute, even more potent than an Imperial Decree. It was absolutely forbidden for anyone to defy them.

Since the Emperor had spoken, retrieving the Netherworld book’s page was now the top priority of the Underworld.

Meanwhile, in the Northwest Dao.

After hearing the latest news from his disciple, who was also the holy girl of Mire Sect, Yu Yiyao, Zhao

Baiyang resolutely ordered, “Tell them to start packing up and prepare to evacuate.”

With Zhao Baiyang’s wisdom, he understood that this time, the Mire Sect’s uprising in the Northwest Dao was only to distract the attention around Ning King Zhu Chenhao in Yangzhou.

Even if the Mire Sect had other thoughts, everything was based on Zhu Chenhao drawing the main attention of the Great Ming imperial court. Overall, the real force was dependent on how the actions played out on Zhu Chenhao’s side.

Slnce Zhu Chenhao’s side had already failed, regardless of how they failed, the situation in Yangzhou would naturally settle down quickly.

Then, the imperial court of the Great Ming would fully focus on the Northwest Dao. It was certain their plan had failed and unlikely to succeed again.

“Yes, Master.” Yu Yiyao obeyed.

She strongly admired her master’s wisdom and naturally trusted his analysis of the situation.

However, she still asked, “Master, what about the others?”

The “others” she mentioned were, of course, those who arose in rebellion with them, planning to take advantage of the chaotic situation.

“Other people?” Zhao Baiyang sneered, “Someone has to take responsibility for this incident. If we don’t leave them behind, the Great Ming imperial court will surely cling to us. Do you understand?”

The stir caused this time in the Northwest Dao was not insignificant. If the Mire Sect wanted to escape unscathed, they had to leave people to shoulder the blame.

Those who joined with the intention of taking advantage of the chaos should be prepared to die when things go wrong.

“Disciple understands what to do.” Yu Yiyao nodded with a smile, then slowly left.

Zhao Baiyang looked at the distant sky, his smile lingering, mumbling to himself, “Pei Xuanjing, you are becoming more and more intriguing to me. Are you truly a person who harbors the world in his heart? I look forward to the day, if there’s a conflict between the world in your eyes and the longevity you seek, how will you choose?”

It’s fair to say that even after just a single encounter with Pei Xuanjing, Zhao Baiyang, with the help of the news brought by Yu Yiyao, was able to see through the purpose of Pei’s actions.

Surprisingly, he wasn’t shocked by Pei Xuanjing’s actions, which surprised many. Instead, he seemed to understand.

Inside the inn, Bai Xiaosheng laughed, “We don’t need to flatter each other here. I came today because there’s something I want to discuss with Brother Pei.”

“Hmm?” Pei Xuanjing raised his eyebrows slightly, asking, “What is it?”

Bai Xiaosheng said, “Heaven and Earth are about to revive, and the world of martial arts that follows will be a time of great turbulence. So, I want to establish three lists to record the heroes of the world.”

According to Bai Xiaosheng’s idea, after the revival of Heaven and Earth, numerous heroes would rise, and the existing forces would be broken. He wanted to establish three lists to record the rankings of these heroes.

“Three lists? Which three lists?” Pei Xuanjing asked with interest.

The saying goes, “There’s no first in literature and no second in martial arts.”

He had been in this world for so long, but he had never heard of any rankings. Now that Bai Xiaosheng mentioned it, he suddenly became interested.

Bai Xiaosheng slowly said, “The three lists are named: Hidden-Dragon List, Wind-Cloud List, Supreme List.”

“I’m interested in hearing the details.” Pei Xuanjing motioned.

“Hidden-Dragon List will initially contain a total of 108 positions, matching the Heavenly Arrays. It refers to young talents with potential in the martial world who are under the age of thirty and of the third grade or below. They can all be listed.”

“The Wind -Cloud List will initially contain 49 positions, signifying that the world changes with us. There are no age or martial arts restrictions for those listed. It only depends on the person’s influence in the martial world. This list changes every three years.”

“The Supreme List will initially contain 18 positions. These listed are the Supreme of the martial world, possessing the power to influence the power structure of the martial world.”

Three lists that almost cover all the heroes of the world speak volumes about Bai Xiaosheng’s ambition.

Pei Xuanjing asked, “Brother Bai, your plan is truly ambitious. I’m afraid the entire martial world will be in chaos because of these three lists.”

He thought to himself that Bai Xiaosheng must have been planning this for quite a while.

Many martial artists are naturally competitive. Now with these lists, it was highly likely that martial artists would eagerly demonstrate their skills to make their names known.

Bai Xiaosheng said somewhat shyly, “I wish to place Brother Pei at the top of the Wind-Cloud list. I want to use your name this time and came here to let you know.”

Considering Bai Xiaosheng’s standing, he could have proceeded even without informing Pei Xuanjing. However, for the sake of their friendship, he decided to take the initiative and let him know. After all, he didn’t want this to affect their working relationship.

“Me, at the top of the Wind-Cloud list? Isn’t that ill -deserved?” Pei Xuanjing was surprised.

Bai Xiaosheng saw Pei Xuanjing’s expression, shook his head, and said, “Currently, among the martial artists, the one who has had the most dominating presence in the past decade is none other than Brother Pei. I speak nothing but the truth.”

Pei Xuanjing was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and according to what Bai Xiaosheng said, it seemed he wasn’t wrong..
