Chapter 93: Not to be Feared
“Angry Heaven Palace?”
Lin Wudao was a bit puzzled.
“What kind of place is that?”
The Shadow Guard shook his head. “I don’t know, but the people inside are pretty mysterious. I couldn’t dig up much intel.”
But mentioning the Angry Heaven Palace, the Shadow Guard hesitated, looking uncertain.
“From what I’ve observed, there are two main things they’ve been up to.”
“First, they’re killing people, but I can’t pinpoint their targets. I’ve seen Angry Heaven Palace members hunt down geniuses, and I’ve also seen them offing some useless members of certain families.”
“Second, it seems they’re searching for something!”
Lin Wudao furrowed his brow.
After deep thought, Lin Wudao asked again, “So, what’s special about those who got killed?”
The Shadow Guard thought for a moment.
“They’re pretty extreme. Either they’re total losers or they’re ridiculously talented geniuses.”
Lin Wudao started pacing, his brain whirring.
Suddenly, Lin Wudao looked at the Shadow Guard and asked, “Do you think I have anything special about me?”
The Shadow Guard studied Lin Wudao carefully, thought for a long time, and finally said, “You’re quite crafty!”
Lin Wudao, annoyed, smacked the guy.
“Think again, and say it right!”
The Shadow Guard fell into contemplation again.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
“My lord, beyond being crafty, you’re clever and also quite a loser!”
Lin Wudao’s breathing got ragged.
He then reached into his storage ring and pulled out a knife.
Holding the knife, Lin Wudao looked at the Shadow Guard with a pained expression.
The Shadow Guard quickly pressed down Lin Wudao’s hand.
“My lord, it was just a joke, don’t take it to heart!”
“Actually, what I just said was you hiding your true strength. In reality, you’re extraordinarily talented and have a reincarnation body. Your future achievements are limitless.”
Finally, Lin Wudao put the knife away.
“If that’s the case, those Angry Heaven Palace folks should know I’m a hidden genius. But how did they find out?”
The Shadow Guard scratched his head.
“Well, I think, in the cultivation world, true losers don’t live long. You’ve been around for a while, so that just means you’re really good at hiding!”
Lin Wudao looked at the Shadow Guard in surprise.
After a long silence, Lin Wudao nodded. “You make a good point!”
The Shadow Guard chuckled.
“There’s also another possibility: good people often don’t pay the price for their lives, while troublemakers leave a legacy of misery!”
Lin Wudao pulled out the knife again.
“My lord, I’m so wrong!”
The Shadow Guard turned and ran!
…
…
The death of the Ninth Angry shocked everyone in the Angry Heaven Palace.
At that moment in Qin Prefecture, a middle-aged man had a face full of frost.
“How did he die?”
The middle-aged man asked his subordinate.
The subordinate trembled as he spoke.
“The Ninth Angry went after someone named Yi Dai Mi Taro, and then he got killed by that Yi Dai Mi Taro!”
The middle-aged man fell silent.
He didn’t know how much time passed.
The middle-aged man asked again.
“So, the second base of Angry Heaven Palace was also taken down by Yi Dai Mi Taro?”
The person kneeling in the great hall nodded.
The Eighth Angry took a deep breath.
“Have we thoroughly investigated that person?”
The subordinate bowed lower, trembling even more.
“Loser!”
The middle-aged man shouted angrily.
The subordinate exploded in place.
“Also, who can tell me why the plan to hunt people in Qin Prefecture has stalled?”
Another person reported.
“Eighth Lord, the reason everything has stalled is that a Yama Palace has recently popped up, and most of the people we want to hunt have joined the Yama Palace.”
“Some were even forcibly dragged into the Yama Palace!”
The middle-aged man was confused.
“Yama Palace? What’s that?”
The subordinate reported again.
“It seems to be a newly formed organization.”
The middle-aged man pulled out a document and flipped through it.
There was no mention of Yama Palace, and he couldn’t help but scoff.
“This so-called faction never existed in history; it’s probably just a flash in the pan.”
Suddenly, the middle-aged man laughed.
“Since the people we need to hunt are all in that Yama Palace, we should wait. Once they’ve gathered, we’ll wipe them out together.”
The subordinate looked a bit worried.
“But I’ve noticed that the Yama Palace is growing quickly. I’m afraid…”
The middle-aged man smirked.
“They’re merely a brand-new ant-like force. Even if we give them another two hundred years, they’re still not enough to fear us in Angry Heaven Palace!”
The subordinate thought for a moment and found that he couldn’t argue.
So, he stopped talking.
“Alright, keep a close watch on our targets.”
“Yes!”
…
…
Time flew by.
Half a month passed.
Liu Shunyi rummaged through the body of a woman, feeling a bit frustrated.
“Damn it, you’re a Nascent Soul cultivator, how come you’re so broke?”
Liu Shunyi shook his head in resignation.
What frustrated him the most was his Golden Core facing a problem.
He was already at Golden Core Great Perfection.
But even with continuous cultivation, he showed no signs of breaking into the Nascent Soul stage.
Instead, he had a massive Golden Core with nine smaller cores orbiting around it.
This made him exceptionally strong, so confident that he believed he could fight any Nascent Soul cultivator without much trouble.
But the issue was…

Having reached this stage of cultivation, Liu Shunyi had hit a wall with no further advancement.
He didn’t know how to break into Nascent Soul.
“Forget it, I’ll find time to ask Lin Wudao.”
Just then, as Liu Shunyi was thinking of Lin Wudao, Lin Wudao contacted him through a jade token again.
“Heh, you and Cao A Man are two peas in a pod.”
Liu Shunyi infused his magic power into the jade token, revealing Lin Wudao’s projection.
Lin Wudao paused for a moment.
“Who’s Cao A Man?”
Liu Shunyi shook his head. “You won’t know him.”
Lin Wudao nodded.
“Do you need something from me?”
Lin Wudao’s expression was quite something.
“Uh, Liu brother, we’ve been a bit short on manpower lately and need more resources.”
Liu Shunyi didn’t take it to heart.
“Just tell me how much you need for half a year; I’ll see what medicinal pills are required for this span!”
Lin Wudao was silent for a moment and asked uncertainly, “You really need half a year’s worth?”
Liu Shunyi nodded.
“Just half a year’s worth. I’ll refine some Blood Pills too, so when the ancient secret realm opens, you won’t have to worry about pills.”
Lin Wudao nodded.
“Let me calculate… If each person needs ten Blood Pills and ten Spiritual Soul Pills per month, that’s a million Blood Pills and a million Spiritual Soul Pills every month.”
“So, for half a year, it’s over ten million Blood Pills and over ten million Spiritual Soul Pills. And that’s not even considering if more people join midway!”
Liu Shunyi stared blankly at Lin Wudao.
“How many, exactly?”
Lin Wudao sighed.
“That’s just a conservative estimate.”
Liu Shunyi swallowed hard.
“So you’re saying, the force you’ve built for me has around a hundred thousand people now?”
Lin Wudao felt a bit numb.
“Roughly, yeah!”
Liu Shunyi was left speechless.
He really wanted to ask, how the hell did you manage to become so excellent?
