The Destiny of the Sinner

17. Alex's Identity

The Wei Imperial Palace.

After the meeting with the twins, Wei Mo allowed them to have a chat in the meeting hall.

Many things Wei Mo wanted to talk about to Qin Tian, including making the twins submit to him during their first meeting.

But Qin Tian had no interest in explaining to Wei Mo about it. He was more interested in the dark aura emanating from the Emperor's residence, even though the aura was extremely thin, but Qin Tian was still able to sense it.

"Older Wei, did the previous stupid Emperor's strength increase so quickly?" qin Tian asked.

"Where do you know that?"

"I just guessed it. And if my guess isn't wrong, he upgraded it through a demon crystal that emits an aura of darkness."

"Indeed, I felt that there was something strange about his strength, as well as his five personal bodyguards who were not from this Empire," Wei Mo said.

"Could he be the culprit behind the disappearance of the girls in some village," Wei Mo said.

"It turns out that my guess was not wrong, then I will check the Emperor's residence. Don't you have a problem with that old man Wei?" qin Tian.

"Sure, you can do it."

Then Wei Mo led the way towards Wei Jingnan's residence.

Upon arriving there, Qin Tian increasingly felt an aura of darkness that he thought might have come from the Demon Pearl.

Demon Pearls were just like Spiritual Stones or Spirit Stones, it was just that Demon Pearls possessed an extremely pure Darkness Essence, and also their existence was extremely rare. If it was an ordinary cultivator who absorbed it, they would become bloodthirsty, but not to the point of losing control.

But, if the absorption process is too much, it will cause side effects such as changes in skin color and so on.

"All of you don't let anyone in before I finish my job!" qin Tian.

"Good!" they said in unison, except for Wei Mo.

It had become their custom when on Earth if Qin Tian gave the order in a firm tone, they would not refuse. Even the most powerful Alex among them would not dare to defy Qin Tian's orders.

The moment Qin Tian entered the Emperor's room, he discovered an extremely dense fluctuation of dark energy behind the bookcase, he who used the Eye of God could clearly see what was behind the books cabinet.

By pulling on the lever that became the trigger to open the secret room, he entered a fairly long underground passageway. Although it was very dark, but because he was a Cultivator of the Holy Monarch realm and also the owner of the Eye of Gods, even a dark room did not become a barrier for him to be able to see clearly.

The fragrance of the soothing Lavender can be smelled when Qin Tian has reached the end of the hall with a fairly spacious room. There was a chunk of stone as big as a human head that exuded an extremely pure dark aura in the middle of the room.

"It turns out this is not just an ordinary Demon Pearl, probably because of the Lavender aroma effect that can disguise the level of the owner of this Pearl."

"But, in this way I will have a very pure element of Darkness. With the Eternal Star Body, I need not be afraid to spiral out of control."

"Alright, for the time being I will keep it in the Soul World first so that no other fool is contaminated and ends up being bloodthirsty."

Then Qin Tian sealed the Demonic Pearl so that its Darkness aura would not leak upon entering the soul world and rushed to return, as there was no other interesting thing there.

The moment she returned, Tang Yue Lin directly approached and hugged her.

"Is it finished?" asked Tang Yue Lin.

Qin Tian simply nodded, and looked at Wei Mo.

"In the secret room that leads underground, in which there are many treasures, I have no interest in taking them. But, there are a lot of Blood Pearls" he said while making sure that she gets paid for helping Wei Lun.

"Each of us is paid with 25 Blood Pearls." Tian Zhu cut off Wei Mo's speech.

"Right, it's because your stupid grandson almost cheated us both!" tian Chu continued.

Wei Mo could only resign, if not obeyed then 'that person' would definitely be ravaging the Wei Empire.

"alright. Then wait a minute, I'll prepare your pay." he said with a sigh.

Tian Chu and Tian Zhu smiled with the statement Wei Mo gave. Though they were only promised one Blood Pearl by Prince Wei Lun. But since the entire Western Continent was afraid of 'that person' even the former Emperor Wei was unable to refuse the request of the two of them.

"All right, then we're out of here."

"Wait a minute young master," Wei Mo interrupted.

"What's wrong?" qin Tian said frowning.

"I as the host here thanked you, and we planned to make a celebration party for Young Master."

"That's not necessary!" qin Tian replied.

"You better fix this empire soon" he said again.

It was not that Qin Tian was disrespectful to Wei Mo, it was just that he felt that he would be courteous to the person who deserved it.

And Wei Mo was not among those worthy of Qin Tian.

The four of them exited the territory of the Wei Imperial Palace smoothly, due to the reputation of the twin and also the 'man'.

When it was near the border forest Qin Tian then asked on the sikembar. "Where is Alex at the moment?"

"Hahh, you're a few weeks late boss."

"Too late?" Qin Tian frowned.

"Yes, he has been called back. And in fact he is not a native of the Western Continent" Tian Zhu said, then he continued his story.

Alex or what is now Ling Huo is the Young Master of the Golden Dragon Sect. For the existence of the sect itself to be located in the Heaven Continent, the top tier of the Intermediate level Mortal Realm.

Alex descended from the Heaven Continent because of his fight with the Dimensional Wolf, one of the God-level Monsters whose existence was extremely rare and whose strength was terrifying. Because of his fight he was then thrown Dimensional Wolves up to the Intermediate level Mortal Realm or commonly referred to the people of the Heaven Continent as Blue Stars.

Alex or Ling Huo, who was dying but still had consciousness stranded on the edge of the Black Gorge, was there to find him 15 years ago.

The twin who was an orphan living around the Black Gorge took care of Ling Huo for a few days.

Due to the effects of the laws of the world in the Blue Star, Ling Huo's strength was suppressed up to the Half Saint realm, which resulted in his regeneration being a little slow.

After a few days, Ling Huo who was Alex had already normalized back, and was planning on teaching his helper some martial arts in return.
