Chapter 40 The Evil Saint Token

Yaoguang City.

As the capital of the Qingyang Prefecture, this was undoubtedly the safest city.

This wasn’t just because the famous patrollers were stationed here, but also because the Qingyang magistrate who ruled Qingyang’s Transcendents, Zhu Yuexi, lived in this city.

At this moment, in a small low-rise building adjacent to a government office building in Tianquan District, the bright sun shone into the room, and a few pots of green plants by the window wantonly stretched out their branches.

A blue butterfly flew from the leaf of a green plant, glided over a distance, and landed on a soft white and slender finger.

The figures on the 24 screens on the opposite wall saw this scene through the remote camera, but they all looked down and pretended not to see it.

This was not to say that the woman opposite them was ugly that they couldn’t even bear to see her face. On the contrary, she had a mature figure and an extremely beautiful face, exuding a rich and elegant temperament. Her every move could easily arouse the deepest desires in the hearts of others.

If it was in ancient times, she would definitely be a femme fatale that would bewitch an

emperor to neglect his duties.

However, compared to her stunning appearance, her identity was clearly more

respectable. She was the magistrate of the Qingyang Prefecture, Zhu Yuexi, a powerhouse at the peak of level nine.

All three of her professions had reached level nine.

She was publicly acknowledged as the most promising genius to inherit the title of “Three Elemental Saint”.

Hence, even though the guardians on the screen who were stationed in various parts of Qingyang Prefecture were either strong, had deep backgrounds, or were unruly, they were all very careful and respectful before Zhu Yuexi.

After about half a minute, Zhu Yuexi seemed to have just realized that she was in the middle of a video conference.

She flicked her fingers and let the butterfly fly away, and an imperceptible trace of pity flashed through her eyes.

She then said in a cold voice, “Continue.”

Xu Changfeng, who had just stopped reporting, continued, “… At present, it can be confirmed that the demon emperor’s appearance is greatly related to the Secret Covenant Travel Agency. They might have signed an unknown cooperation agreement with the condition being the demon emperor’s arrival to gain benefits from it. I’m still investigating the details, and I’ll report to you as soon as I find any clues.”

Zhu Yuexi crossed her arms and supported her delicate chin. She pondered and said, “This matter might be related to the fiend emperor. As one of the four great vice presidents of the Secret Covenant Travel Agency, the fiend emperor was just heavily injured by me not long ago. If he wants to treat his injuries and completely recover, he would definitely need some of the divine items from the origin world, thus the basis for our cooperation.’

After a pause, she looked at Xu Changfeng and continued to ask, “How’s the investigation on the smuggling of void-splitting stones going?”

“It has been confirmed that they were smuggled from the Celestial Association. It was Zhang Lie, the head of the Celestial Association’s Tianmu Branch. After an inventory count, we determined that a total of

178 void-splitting stones were lost. Among them, a total of 38 pieces had been used near

the Door, and the remaining 140 pieces have gone missing. Apart from that, he also stole three space-piercing amplifiers, a void detector, and… An evil saint token.”

“Pa!” Zhu Yuexi slammed her palm on the

mahogany desk. Her beautiful face showed a wave of rare anger, “The evil saint token?! How

dare he?”

The group of guardians was shocked by this

news, and they all fell silent.

They naturally knew the importance of the evil

holy token.

The evil holy token was a special treasure that

came from the origin world. There were three

in total.

It was said that after one gathered all of them,

the token could help one easily break through level 9 and become a level 10 saint. However, the price was that one would easily lose one’s mind and become madly evil.

To kill the previous evil saint, the Dawn Bureau mobilized seven saints. In the end, four of the seven saints died on the spot before the evil saint was finally killed in the origin world. After the evil saint died, the three evil saint tokens he had mysteriously disappeared. The Dawn Bureau had thus mobilized many and searched everywhere for nearly half a year only to have recently found one in Tianmu City.

Department Head Zhang of the Celestial Association’s Tianmu branch had used the reason of appraising the token’s authenticity to temporarily be in possession of the token.

No one expected that in the blink of an eye, he would run away with the evil saint token! How could Zhu Yuexi not be angry?

Xu Changfeng, who had always been proud and

aloof, was sweating slightly when faced with Zhu Yuexi’s anger. He said in a low voice, “I’ve already ordered a search for Zhang Lie in the entire city, and have also put out a bounty to the civilian Transcendents. According to the clues we have, we should be able to catch him

soon.’ “Don’t delay your daily missions,” Zhu Yuexi

said, “I’ll hand this matter over to the hunter patrollers. Someone will be heading over to your side very soon. Cooperate with them. No

matter what, we can not allow a second evil saint to appear!”

“I understand!” Xu Changfeng lowered his head. After that, Zhu Yuexi continued to deal with

some major events that happened in other cities. She also gave the corresponding instructions according to the importance and time-tightness of the respective events.

During this period, they even had a group discussion on some matters. Under the collective wisdom of the masses, some matters were thus properly resolved.

When the meeting ended, it was already close

to noon.

Zhu Yuexi turned off the screens on the wall, crossed her hands behind her back, and stretched slightly.

Her huge bust arched out before her as she let

out a comfortable groan.

Then, she pulled out a drawer that was filled to

the brim with snacks. Potato chips, nuts, dried meat, soft candy, pastries, spicy sticks … Everything was available.

Zhu Yuexi took out a packet of pork jerky and tore it open. The fragrance of the delicious meat mixed with the light barbeque fragrance filled the air, making people unable to extricate themselves.

She took a bite and immediately squinted her eyes in happiness.

Then, she opened the laptop on the table.

While eating snacks, she began to watch a drama. After watching the two new episodes at 4x the normal speed, Zhu Yuexi licked the lid

of the yogurt and opened the Transcendent forum. She casually browsed through a few popular posts and gave a few likes to the posts where people were arguing.

She then opened her social group chats. She

had joined hundreds of groups, like the Saint Candidates Group, Female Transcendents Group, Illusionist Master Group, and so on.

However, most of the time, she didn’t speak much and just watched silently.

The outside world seemed to have long gotten

used to the cold and aloof persona she created. Usually, things that came to her door were more important business matters.

After replying to a few messages regarding the exploration of the origin world, Zhu Yuexi’s eyes were suddenly attracted by a private

message.

This private message was sent from the Myriad Sword Sect’s Qingyang branch.

The account name that sent the message was [Three Gold for Sacrificing Teammates]. “So sinister. I definitely don’t want to become his teammate,” Zhu Yuexi thought for a moment and used her authority to search the

other party’s account, thus learning that the other party was a sword saint who had just awakened.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, “Heh, a mere newbie.”

Then, she looked at the other party’s question.

[Hi, big shot. May I know how you usually

practice the sword? Are there any tips for leveling up?]

Originally, Zhu Yuexi did not intend to reply, but when she thought about how she had come this far back then, the finger that had left the screen could not help but fall gently. Then, thinking of the persona that she displayed to the public, she deleted the long paragraph that she had typed and typed a few short words again.
