*Whoosh~*
The warship anchored at the Law Realm base on the border, then Xia Fei and the Skywing wolves disembarked. Avril could be seen in the distance; behind her were Pod and Xiao Yu. Xia Fei had not gone off too far lately, so Avril had been staying at the base this entire time.
Seeing how worried Xia Fei looked, Avril asked in concern, “Have you encountered some difficulty?”
Naturally, Xia Fei did not plan on telling Avril about the beast flood, for she would only worry, so he said, instead, “There’s that strange guy earlier who asked me if I had a son!”
*Whoosh!*
Avril’s face turned red at once. There were so many people around, but Xia Fei was bringing this up. Could it be…
The Skywings all had sharp ears, so they instantly erupted in laughter, Xia Guanghai laughed so hard he even bent over. He said, “Xia Fei, my dear Xia Fei! I finally found a matter on which you’re inferior to your brothers. Among all of us, you’re the only one without a son!”
“Avril, Xia Fei, you have to work hard!” the rather blunt Xia Xiang said very sternly.
‘Work hard?’
Xia Fei was instantly rendered speechless. How exactly was he supposed to work hard at this? He was of the speed type!
The joking and teasing mollified the shock of the beast flood. Once Avril and Xia Fei returned to their temporary residence at the base, Xiao Yu very tactfully left with Pod to make Xia Fei’s beloved fried bean paste noodles.
Xiao Yu had just gone when Avril embraced Xia Fei, burying her head in his chest as she said softly, “I felt so embarrassed today! Xia Guanghai and the others were so bad!”
Xia Fei said nonchalantly, “The Skywings are carefree like that. You haven’t see how everyone calls the grand ancestor ‘old undying’. Here, the greatest rule is that there are no rules. If you’re embarrassed, just ignore them.”
Avril shook her head, hesitantly saying, “They’re telling the truth. We still don’t have a son. Is that a problem?”
Xia Fei smiled naughtily. “What’s the problem? Didn’t you hear what they had said? We’ve got to make love, but we must’ve been making too little love!”
“It’s not a little at all. I need several days to recover after every session!” Avril trembled. The thought of Xia Fei’s terrifying speed made Avril both expectant, satisfied, and also a bit worried. Fortunately, Xia Fei could control his speed well, or else Avril would likely be left so excited that her soul ascended to heaven after each session.
“What if…” Avril muttered, her face turning red.
Xia Fei frowned and asked unhappily, “Are you going to bring up Nicole again?”
Avril and Nicole Sawyer had been friends since they were young, and Nicole also liked him. She had hinted more than once that Xia Fei should accept that woman’s feelings, but he had always refused. Although his stance had been very tough, Nicole had remained single all this time, her stance even tougher than his. This matter was fast becoming one of Avril’s worries.
Normally, there was no girl willing to share her man with another person. It was clear that Avril was truly too considerate of Xia Fei, so considerate she was willing to share what was most precious to her.
The more she was like this, the more Xia Fei liked her and became unwilling to do what disadvantaged her. While he might look like a crazed monster to others, in front of Avril, he always acted like the best man possible.
“I’m talking about Xiao Yu and Moon Song. They’re also both waiting for you,” Avril blinked her eyes and said.
Xiao Yu? Moon Song?
After all, Xia Fei was a normally functioning man, and the mention of these two names instantly brought to mind Xiao Yu and Moon Song’s enchanting body.
Xia Fei, shaking his head, cast these thoughts to the back of his mind. With a naughty smile on his face, he pulled Avril into the bedroom.
“Where are we going?” Avril asked bashfully.
“I told you not to bring up such things. Now that you’ve done just that, I have to punish you!” Xia Fei smiled faintly as he tapped Avril’s nose lightly. “A harsh punishment.”
…
Xia Fei was enjoying his spring, the sounds of pleasure growing louder and louder…
Going wild every once in a while lets Xia Fei rest his head for a bit and stop thinking about all those random things. It was probably only when he was with Avril that he became a normal person.
At the same time, in some distant place in the universe, Fuchen sat in that secluded cave by the sea, a dour look on his face.
While the surroundings seemed bleak, the insides of the cave were as luxurious as a palace.
Velvet carpets absorbed the moisture from the sea. A man was seated on the floor, holding a giant pearl in his hand.
This person was dressed very strangely. He was sitting in the cave, yet he wore a conical bamboo hat and dressed himself like a fisherman; in addition, he was wearing a light purple leather jacket. To call his outfit incongruous would not be a lie in the slightest.
Fuchen was barefoot and wearing only a pair of shorts. Despite his old face, he had a body more muscular than a young man’s, tanned dark by the sun. He was the picture of health and vigor.
The man raised his head upon realizing that Fuchen had returned, saying, “You came back early. Are you done killing one hundred thousand?”
Fuchen nodded. “Mm, one hundred and ten thousand, ten thousand more than expected.”
It was difficult to say if Fuchen was talking about people or creatures. Killing one hundred and ten thousand in a single morning? It was a shocking number, but they were nothing more than cold numbers to Fuchen.
Fuchen was no longer the Fuchen of the past, his murderous aura enough to make one shiver.
“Very good. You already understand that Annihilators represent slaughter. What you need to do now is pay back all the lives you’ve owed over the years. The Fuchen of the past was too kind, not suitable for the title of Annihilator!” the man said indifferently.
Pay back all the killing that he had owed over the years? Only then could he represent the Annihilators?
It appeared that after eating a Divine Beast, Fuchen was continuing to develop into a demonic murderer.
“You said that a big event would be happening today; what is it?” Fuchen asked as he poured himself some tea.
The man smiled. “Today? It’s the day my master publishes his ranking. His venerable self said that the ranking this time will be very interesting.”
“The Thousand Soul Ranking?” Fuchen asked in shock.
In Annihilator, there was a ranking that represented the strongest mystical weapons, the Thousand Soul Ranking.
Only the one thousand most powerful soul weapons or mystical weapons in the universe could be on this ranking. In the nine great universes, there were hundreds of millions of powerful weapons, so being able to get on this ranking was an immense honor!
The assembly of the strongest weapons in the universe, their legendary names enough to make one go insane!
Any warrior wanted to have the strongest weapon in the universe, so the publishing of the Thousand Soul Ranking would always draw a great deal of discussion. Which weapon had entered the ranking? Which weapon had been destroyed? It would always be the center of the entire universe’s attention.
The one who made this ranking was called Chu Jingfeng, a figure even more legendary than the Thousand Soul Ranking itself!
No one knew who Chu Jingfeng was, but this mysterious figure was somehow able to get into the hidden treasures of the great clans, dig up the information and their most valuable and most unknown weapons, and then rank them! It was clear that only someone with divine abilities could do such a thing!
In Annihilator, besides arguing about the rankings of the Thousand Soul Ranking, a favorite topic of conversation was the identity of Chu Jingfeng.
Alas, while countless years had passed and the Thousand Soul Ranking continued to be published on time, no one was able to find out who Chu Jingfeng was.
The man wearing the big bamboo hat next to Fuchen called himself Chu Jingfeng’s disciple. This would be big news if Annihilator ever got wind of it. Moreover, it appeared that he had a rather deep relationship with Fuchen’s Unrestricted Sect. This was rather incomprehensible.
“What sort of shocking feat has Master Chu performed this time? Still, there’s one thing that I’m not surprised about: Given his personality, it wouldn’t be surprising no matter what sort of exaggerated feat he’s rumored to do,” Fuchen muttered.
The man who called himself Chu Jingfeng’s disciple smiled. “Are you still thinking about how Snowless Billow and Purple Precipice were pushed out of the top ten? To tell the truth, I’m not surprised at all. Mystical armaments have never been unchanging things. It’s precisely because mystical armaments have spirits of their own that they can have different effects when used by different people. Also, mystical armaments have highs and lows.
When a mystical armament kills countless people, it will naturally reveal its abilities, but when it lies unused for countless years, when it appears again, it won’t be able to be in its strongest state instantly. It’ll require countless killings for nourishment so that it can slowly recover its former self.
“Snowless Billow and Purple Precipice were very strong; alas, they were sealed away for too long, causing them to fall in ranking. Still, in the future, if they get the right master, they might return to the top ten of the Thousand Soul Ranking.”
Fuchen sighed. “Master told me a lot about how those two mystical armaments had swept through half of the Annihilators, which left a deep impression on me. It’s only natural that I’d feel a little conflicted when you said that Snowless Billow and Purple Precipice can no longer enter the top ten. I just like them too much.”
Nodding, the man said, “I understand. As they say, when you love the house, you love the bird perched atop it, too.”
Fuchen put on some clothes, and the two sat together and stared at the pearl. It was said that Annihilators liked using various pearls as communication tools and energy storage devices. This silver pearl was much larger than Xia Fei’s Bixia Orb.
There was a spherical screen in the pearl. As it projected straight onto the retina, the images it displayed were very realistic.
“Project it. I’m not used to viewing things like this,” Fuchen said.
The man nodded and tapped lightly on the pearl. It instantly projected a giant screen, but the image became two-dimensional and no longer as realistic.
It could clearly be seen that countless devices had been linked to this singular server in the Alpha Universe, which would publish the Thousand Soul Ranking. Hundreds of millions of people wanted to know how the Thousand Soul Ranking would change.
Ten, nine, eight, seven…
The number on the screen counted down. Fuchen did not even realize that his heart was pulsing with every second that counted down, his mind tense as he waited for the ranking to be published.
When the number hit zero, a large number of characters began to appear on the screen.
*Whoosh!*
The screen quickly scrolled down as a thousand names, a thousand peak mystical armaments of the universe started to appear!
Ranked first was still the Eonic Cosmic King, the undisputed number one weapon!
Next was the eternal second place, the rare spirit-type mystical armament, the Hundred Bird Return!
