Chereads / Supreme Immortal Monarch / Chapter 3 - Scheme

Chapter 3 - Scheme

Spirit Arc City may be large and almost endless for a Mortal , but just like any other geography , this city is also divided into Districts.

Western Long District , Eastern Mu District , Northern You District , Southern Tan District and Central Qi District .

Central Qi District is also mainly known as Central Market since the largest market is located in Central Qi District where the Qi Family is situated.

"Young master , there seem to be some group of people fighting "

Young maid Lin You who is around 19 year old reports to Young master Qi while touring around the Central Market .

She is a young girl with a slim and beautiful figure . Around 5'3 feet tall , she is both cute and adorable.

"Hmm "

Young master is with four young maids and two bodyguards. Although these two bodyguards seem to be thin and look weak , in actuality their Cultivation is very deep and profound.

After all, a Powerhouse is ranked according to low to high — Inferior , Lower , Middle , High and Imperial.

Sometimes High Rank are also known as Noble Rank , Middle Rank are known as Inception Rank , Lower Rank are known as Foundation Rank and finally Inferior Rank are known as Mortal Rank .

So how can Middle Rank Sect's such as Casket Sword Sect be so weak to send a weak protector for their Young Heir ?

Although Casket Sword Sect seem to seem small in the eyes of others , in actuality , each District is similar to Summit or Peak from other Sects .

It is just that , instead of Mountain Peak , Casket Sword Sect has District Lords . But each District Lords are equivalent to Peak Lords , Summit Lords and Leaders of other Sects .

It is all about geography . While other Sects have their own Divine Mountains , Casket Sword Sect has their own Plain Terrain .

But at the very least , their Spiritual Energy is rich and abundant since their Sect is right above Heavenly Vein .

"I see "

Young master Qi also looks at the location where people are gathering around .

" You'er , go and see what is going ? "

"And if it is something trivial , just ask them to scram "

"Tell them to not bother other visitors "

With an emotionless voice , Young master Qi asks Maid You'er to check on that crowd gathered for the show .

"As you command , young master "

You'er left to do what she was told . As for Young master Qi , he ignores everything and turns around the market .

Even if he does not care what happens to the market , it still is his territory so how can he let any random dogs cause trouble ?

Casket Sword Sect is gonna be succeeded by his second eldest brother who is also the disciple of Diamond Emperor Sect .

While all his siblings are born with unparalleled talents for Cultivation because they inherited the talent from their father.

As for Young master Qi , he has a much more monstrous talent for Cultivation since both his parents were once Paragon of their respective generation .

While one was called True Dragon , the other was called Divine Phoenix.

Coupled with him cultivating Chaos , Void and Secret Arts , he can be said to be unrivaled amongst his own generation .

"Young master Qi , greetings . Greetings "

The moment he reached an Ancient Restaurant named [ Heavenly Wheat Restaurant ] , he was greeted by a fat middle aged man .

This middle aged man is wearing an aristocratic dress such as a coat and pants. He is the manager of this grand and ancient restaurant .

His name is Long Qinzheng .

Manager Long greets Young master Qi the moment he arrives at the restaurant.

Young master Qi shows no reaction nor expression , he just nods a little .

"Young master Qi ,your seat has been prepared just how you like "

Manager Long tries to flatter Young master Qi , but unfortunately no matter what he says , Young master Qi reply would be either [ hmm ] or [ oh ]

After entering the building , we can see grand and arresting decorations decorated inside the entrance hall .

And there are hundreds of customers present , creating this large building into a restless money making machine .

There are a total of three floors other than the ground floor . Though the building is large enough to almost become a Skyscraper.

Because each floor has large rooms , enough to even fit a Giant.

And after reaching the top floor , Young master Qi walks inside his private room only reserve for Vip Customers only .

After entering inside the room , Young master Qi can see a white sheets covering the floor while soft and flexible sheets are sandwich between soft and and thick mattress .

There are pillows and blankets , there are curtains hanging with windows open .

Fresh gust of wind comes and refresh everything inside the room .

" Everyone stay outside "

Young master Qi has never allowed anyone to enter with him , although there are foods served for him , he does not let even waiters and servants enter with him .

After closing the door , Young master Qi tries to stabilize his emotions .

Walking to the ground bed , he rests down and sits in a lotus position .

"Seal "

After doing some Hand Signs , he uses a simple yet profound Seal to seal his surroundings .

After that , through his body , Chain Of Dao begins to expand , sealing his surroundings in the form of a sphere .

Dao Chants can be heard inside the sphere but not outside .

" I am the True Emperor , how can I be bound with Mortal Emotions ?"

With a deep frown , at this moment it is not [ Young master Qi ] but [ True Emperor Yang ] who spoke .

His surroundings completely change , the apathetic Aura around him transforms into a cold and distant Aura.

Whoever it is , they would feel the monstrous suppression of the True Emperor who has power and strength to suppress the Myriad Era and Everlasting Ages .

"As a True Emperor , although we may not be completely free from Mortal Attachment and Mortal Emotions , at the least we can never be affected so easily ?"

"So what is the reason for my Emotions to fluctuate ?"

True Emperor Yang asks himself , he is still unable to comprehend the bizarre situation.

" Was that the physical reaction which those old hags used to talk about "

"Something call body memory or something like that "

Taking a deep breath , True Emperor Yang tries to stabilize his Dao Heart that fails to understand his own dilemma .

"I have always been ignoring the [ Memories ] of [ Young master Qi ] for fear of unknown "

"But it seem I need to start digesting the [ Memories ] "

He falls in meditation and activates his Memory Palace in order to digest the memories of [ Young master Qi ] so as to erase the trace of Young master Qi .

According to what True Emperor Yang believes , this may have been all because of those memories he has not digested yet . Which resulted in Young master Qi sentiments to remain .

Slowly but surely , he digested all the memories of Young master Qi , but surprisingly those memories left True Emperor Yang in bewilderment .

Unlike other Geniuses who are born encompassed by Celestial Phenomenon if their Dao Talent was too monstrous , Young master Qi was instead born with a strange phenomenon encompassed.

On his birth , it is said there were Nine Divine Treasures rotating up in the sky , creating a Heavenly Formation that can seal World , Realm , Heaven and the Immortal .

Followed by a world devouring black snake that left deep terror in everyone's Dao Heart the moment they saw or felt the black snake .

And more than that , Young master Qi was bizzare since his birth .

When he was with his family , he was just like any other child .

Happy , childish , spoiled and loved .

But when he was alone , he would spend his time dazing at the sky . He would spend all his time dazing at the sky , as if he is trying to connect his soul with someone that exists far away from the land .

And more than that , the strangest thing Young master Qi would do was , he would always murmur a name at night , when he falls asleep .

And that was [ Yang Mountain Range ]

For a while , True Emperor Yang was confuse

But he later thought this was just some short of Celestial Phenomenon signaling the young boy that someone would someday take over his body . Or something .

True Emperor Yang didn't take those things seriously .

Although his Wisdom surpasses the Mortal View , he is not some Omnipotent God or something right .

"It seems , my consciousness was already attached to the consciousness of Young master Qi . And later , I must have woken up for some reason "

Shaking his head , Young master Qi returns to his usual self .

After a while , from the outside , You'er voice sounds.

"Young master , Young miss from Eastern Mu District has come to visit you "

Young master Qi slightly arches his right brow up , he thinks for a while and replies .

"Let her come in "

After that , he dispelled his Dao Barrier , ready to greet his guest .

And soon the door opens , the moment the door opens , he sees a young girl in her late 11 enter the room .

Although she is only 11 years old , she is still beautiful as a flower that is ready to bloom and become a Divine Flower of Nine Heaven .

Wearing a green Chinese dress such as Qipao , she reveals her slim figure .

"Greeting young master Qi "

With a slight bow , the young girl greets Young master Qi .

Following the young girl is an old woman . Her body is hidden behind Celestial Mist , making others unable to see through her face . But she is an old woman , since the Young master has his Imperial Palace inside his Sea Of Consciousness helping him see through her .

Everything related to his Soul and Consciousness are with him and not lost other than physical arsenal.

So even his Nine Treasures are with him . It is just that he usually does not summons or reveals his Nine Treasures .

" Why is the daughter of the District Lord here for no reason ? "

Young master Qi straightforwardly ask the young miss of Mu Family .

For others , Mu Family can also be said to be Summit Lord , Peak Lord , Pavilion Lord or something since they belong to Casket Sword Sect.

It is just that the Casket Sword Sect has the structure and style of a City .

The only reason why the name of the city is Spirit Arc City is because there are other cities around that are part of Casket Sword Sect .

So in short , Spirit Arc City is just like Capital or Headquarters to Side Branch .

"This Mu has come here in hope for asking favor from the Young master Qi "

" This Mu hopes that Young master Qi will be generous and benevolent to listen to this Mu "

With a calm face , Young master Qi looks at Young miss Mu , trying to see what this girl is trying to get at .

When the young miss and her servant enter the room , even Young master Qi servant enters the room .

Only when Young master Qi himself gives permission , will others enter the room .

Otherwise , if anyone tries to go against him , they will have to experience the punishment.

"And what is this so called favor you ask of ?"

Picking up a glass of herbal tea , slowly and calmly Young master Qi drinks the tea .

' it is said this era is full of Dragon and Phoenix , hence the reason why this era is name Dragon And Phoenix Era '

'because of many Emperor took birth in Holy Dan World , the Providence of the world also soar to next level , giving birth to not only one or two Geniuses but hundreds of "

'and this little girl In front of me is said to be born with Thunder Fairy Dao Physique , one of the many Fairy Dao Physique which used to be found rarely even in my time '

' unlike my generation , this generation has much more terrifying Geniuses since this Geniuses are guided and taught by Ancient Monsters that has been existing since Primordial '

' although this girl is no match for me in term of Game Of Wisdom , but I can never underestimate my enemies and opponent since I have seen countless Behemoth fall down just because they underestimate their opponents '

Although Young master Qi is calm on the surface , similar to an ocean , calm on the surface but raging and violent on the inside .

The terrifying thing about Ocean is , they are mysterious and unfathomable .

When will it rage , no one knows ?

What it hides , no one has ever unveiled .

That is why you should never play with the ocean .

With a gentle smile , young miss Mu sits next to Young master Qi . Unrestrained, her irresistible body fragrance that belongs to nature, was entering the nose of Young master Qi .

Young master Qi was not even the slightest bit affected by her seductive fragrance. In his life as True Emperor Yang , he has even brutally killed the Goddess of Nine Heaven to whom the world admires .

Even till now , many of Ancient Monsters call her the most beautiful and gorgeous woman to ever exist , True Empress Jiang .

But her beauty was not even slightest bit effective when she met the cold and ruthless EMPEROR , True Emperor Yang .

He was heartless , ruthless , cold and emotionless .

He was the Void and Void was him .She begged for her life ,she begged for his mercy but he never cared about her feelings .

The reason he killed her was that , True Empress Jiang tried to seduce True Emperor Yang and make him her Dao Slave .

Pet to her that would listen to every single word of her .

But unfortunately when True Emperor Yang noticed her intention , he didn't hold back and reveal his brutality .

For him both man and woman means nothing . He respects the Strong but at the same time , he always wants to trample on the strong . As for the weak ,he has no time and energy to think about them .

Even if the strong were to kill innocent , True Emperor Yang would just say — They were weak so they deserve to die .

When Young miss Mu saw the tea in the teacup empty , she, like a gentle and obedient maid, helped Young master Qi refill his cup with tea .

"Young master Qi , as you know "

"There are humanity in this world , they created society , society birth status , status balanced the power "

"With power , one holds the authority to stands above everyone "

Young miss Mu placed the teakettle on the plate and gently leaned her body on Young master Qi's right shoulder .

Like a little lover , she plays with Young master Qi chest , slowly writing something on his chest with her finger .

"And as someone who has Metacognition , humans always seeks for greater power and ambition "

"To tell you the truth , I am no different from them "

When young miss Mu said till this , she suddenly smiles and meets her lovely eyes with Young master Qi .

"I am born with Fairy Dao Physique , a very powerful Fairy Dao Physique that gives me the potential to become a Heavenly Genius of this generation "

Young master Qi silently listens to her every single word , he says nothing . Patiently listening to her sweet voice , revealing both her grievance and ideal .

Young miss Mu continues after seeing Young master Qi not say anything to her .

"Even if I fail to become True Emperor of this era , I am still Destin to become a prominent figure , a Supreme Ruler that will someday lead her family to greatness "

"Combine with my ambition , I will never feel satisfied till I build my power to whole new level "

She proudly says that and suddenly her Aura is completely different from how she had before . Full of ambition and domineering .

"But i alone will have a bottleneck that I can never breakthrough , that is why I want an ally that can support me on my Path To Supremacy "

The final intonation of her voice raises up , revealing her arrogance at how confident she is.

"So you want me to aid you , support you on your Dao Journey and when you become a Supreme Master someday , you are trying to say is you will be my backup "

" A future investment , if I lost I will lose everything "

"But if I win , which is you becoming a supreme master of this era , then I will get a backing of supreme master "

"Officially becoming tyrant that can rampage over the entire world "

With a calm and slow attitude , Young master Qi puts his tea cup down .

He turns to look at Young miss Mu and reveals no human expression a human should have .

"You are right "

Young miss Mu nodded her head , and replied to Young master Qi.

Young master Qi coldly unleashes a hypocritical laugh that suddenly turns the entire surrounding into a cold atmosphere.

It is as if everyone has just experienced the Immortal Cold Qi that can never melt even after repelling with Immortal Flame .

"On what basis should I believe you will be my backing once you become a supreme master "

"And most of all , don't forget"

Here , suddenly Young master Qi reveals a very terrifying pressure on everyone . Be it his ally or young miss Mu's servant , everyone feels suffocation .

Whoosh

Stretching his right arm forward , Young master Qi grabs the throat of Young miss Mu .

Seeing her young mistress in danger , the old woman tries to protect her but she sees her young mistress signaling her to stop .

When Young miss Mu felt the grip on her throat , she channels her Spiritual Qi in her body , exerting strength capable of destroying Irons and Metals .

She tries to escape from the grip of Young master who is clearly only a Dao Plant , while she is a Dao Fruit .

But soon apprehension takes over her eyes , she soon realizes even the physical strength alone of Young master Qi is far more stronger than her , a Dao Fruit !!

How can that be ?

How can a Dao Plant have Strength far surpassing Dao Fruit ?

Impossible !!

But soon she remembers rumors about Young master Qi .

It is said , even before he started Cultivating in Immortality , he already was terrifying enough to beat down a Dao Plant .

So those rumors were not baseless .

It is true that until you don't personally experience what other people have experienced , you will never know their feelings .

Inevitably her face and throat begin to turn red and green , even her veins begin to bulge ferociously.

"Don't forget , I have much more potential than you "

"I am the Paragon of this era "

"A Lion in the middle of Primal Beasts "

"The only difference between a Lion and me is , while a Lion is only fearless "

"I am both fearless and the strongest "

With a cold voice that comes from the deepest source of Void , Young master Qi slowly lifts Young miss Mu up .

Her feet leave the floor and meet the sky , and soon she is thrown away like a broken toy.

Looking at young miss Mu , Young master Qi returns to his calm personality .

He sits down and rubs his forehead .

"Your offer , I will accept it "

"But remember this , if you try to betray me , I will personally decapitate you "

"And no one will have the ability at that time , neither you , nor Heaven or Immortals "

This was not an empty threat , if Young master Qi is forced to use Black Heaven Curse : Black Snake Forbidden Nightmare , he can kill his enemy without even having to meet his enemy physically.

But the cost of using such Curse is , either sacrifice the life of other people , or just pay with your Lifespan .

" Come here "

Young master Qi calls Young miss Mu , she walks to him and stands next to him .

Slowly standing up , Young master Qi stands shoulder to shoulder with young miss Mu . He is only an inch shorter than young miss Mu.

He helps her fix her clothes and hair while telling her .

"Make sure no one knows what happen here "

"You came to visit me , we have cup of tea , we spoke , laughed , smiled , and got separated"

Young master Qi gives her a perfect excuse to explain to others . After a short chit - chat , Young miss laughs and leaves the room . Acting as if nothing happened between them two .

After they left , You'er came next to Young master Qi and worriedly said to him .

"Young master , can young miss Mu be trusted ?"

She does not believe a vicious lady like young miss Mu can be trusted . After all , even if she can be trusted , You'er will never let a vicious lady like young miss Mu get close to her young master .

He is all hers .

And no one else .

Young master Qi was unaware of what this simple , innocent , naive and clumsy girl was thinking right now in her head .

He just flatly said to her,

"This kind of person are the one who we should always maintain distance , but unfortunately I am their kryptonite they should never meet with "

" Keep a close eyes on her , send few more spy from Qi Family to keep check on Mu Family "

"This girl is scheming , a scheme where she thinks she is the player "

Young master Qi walks close to the window and oversees the entire market from the third floor , shrugging his shoulders as he clicks his tongue .

"Let's see , what fun this generation will bring to me "

"I am eager to play with them "
