Chapter 53: Gold-Level Tower Lord, Bao Hongyan
Yao Xiong was Black Moon Tower’s bronze-level Tower Lord and Wan Chang’s immediate superior.
At this moment, this person was standing respectfully in front of Chu Xuan.
He was cursing Wan Chang in his heart.
After Wan Chang had broken through, Chu Xuan had asked Wan Chang to leave the small courtyard with a soul seed seal that was imbued with his emperor-level cultivation base.
Chu Xuan’s emperor-level strength suppressed Yao Xiong and the soul seed seal was soon implanted into the latter’s soul.!!
Yao Xiong’s mind was clear and he knew that he had been tricked.
However, he could not resist.
He cursed Wan Chang’s eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.
However, they were now both Chu Xuan’s subordinates. No matter how angry he was, he could not take revenge on Wan Chang.
After controlling Yao Xiong, Chu Xuan asked the latter to come to the small courtyard.
“Do you know about the Asura Ancient Land?”Chu Xuan asked.
“Master, I don’t know.” Yao Xiong lowered his head and replied.
As expected, the intelligence classification grade of the Asura Ancient Land was not low. Even the bronze-level Tower Lord did not have the right to come into contact with this information at all.
After all, the Asura Ancient Land was still in a dormant state. Yao Xiong would likely only be informed about it when it appeared. At that point, the Black Moon Tower would sell the information to create a profit.
Chu Xuan raised his hand and sent out a wisp of emperor-level spiritual power that carried with it a soul imprint. He instructed Yao Xiong to bring it along to control his superior, the silver-level Tower Lord.
As long as one was not an Emperor realm powerhouse, they would not be able to resist the pressure of Chu Xuan’s spiritual power.
Yao Xiong left with that wisp of emperor-level energy. His heart was cold. It seemed that something big was going to happen to the Black Moon Tower.
With this man’s strange method, he managed to control two Tower Lords of the Black Moon Tower without anyone knowing. He was slowly eating away at the Black Moon Tower.
In the end, he might even become the true master of the Black Moon Tower.
Based on what he knew, the powerhouses of the Black Moon Tower might not be able to discover his strange method.
Fan Chao was the silver-level Tower Lord of the Black Moon Tower and also Yao Xiong’s superior.
The resources controlled by a silver-level Tower Lord far surpassed that of a bronze-level Tower Lord. Even so, he still had not come into contact with any information regarding the Asura Ancient Land.
Fan Chao stood in front of Chu Xuan respectfully. In his heart, he had similarly already cursed Yao Xiong’s eighteen generations of ancestors.
Yao Xiong had actually tricked him.
Chu Xuan gained a further understanding of the Black Moon Tower’s composition and operations.
The Black Moon Tower was divided into the main department, the logistics department, and the guards department.
Among these, the main department was responsible for the operations of the Black Moon Tower.
The logistics department was responsible for the provision of the various resources of the Black Moon Tower, such as alchemy, refining weapons, and so on.
It was worth mentioning that the intelligence personnel belonged to the main department of the Black Moon TOwer.
The guard department’s responsibility was to protect the safety of the Black Moon Tower. It was a military department specially trained by the Black Moon Tower.
Above the three departments, the Tower Lord held the most power.
Power and strength were inseparable. The higher the position of the Tower Lord, the higher the requirement of strength to achieve it. Otherwise, how could the Tower Lord control their subordinates?
Fan Chao was a silver-level Tower Lord who managed three bronze-level Tower Lords, and Yao Xiong was only one of them.
There were a total of seven silver-level Tower Lords in the entire Southern Region.
Each of them was a truth realm cultivator.
Fan Chao was at the first level of the truth realm.
Since he had not discovered any information about the Asura Ancient Land, Chu Xuan could only continue down the warpath. The next step was to control the gold-level Tower Lord.
Chu Xuan also condensed a wisp of his emperor-level power and instructed Fan Chao to carry it with him and look for his superior, the gold-level Tower Lord.
Fan Chao’s thoughts were identical to Yao Xiong’s. Something big was going to happen to the Black Moon Pavilion.
However, after receiving the soul seed seal, even though he was clear-headed, he could not resist and could only do as he was told.
Bao Hongyan was a fourth-level truth realm cultivator and a gold-level Tower Lord of the Black Moon Tower.
Chu Xuan was quite surprised. Fan Chao’s superior was actually a woman.
Her figure was enchanting, her face was gorgeous, and she even looked somewhat familiar.
“How many gold-level Tower Lords are there in the Southern Region?”
“Reporting to my Lord, three,” Bao Hongyan respectfully replied.
She was cursing Fan Chao inwardly and, at the same time, she was shocked by Chu Xuan’s capabilities.
The Chu family had actually produced such a terrifying character.
Moreover, he had already extended his hand toward the Black Moon Tower.
What was even more terrifying was that, with this person’s methods, the Black Moon Tower probably would not be able to notice any abnormalities until it was too late.
“Does the Black Moon Tower have an Emperor realm expert guarding the Southern Region?”
This was something Chu Xuan was very curious about.
Even the evil imperial court, the major power behind the heretic cultivators, did not dare to offend the Black Moon Tower. If the Black Moon Tower did not have an expert guarding the Southern Region, they definitely would have attacked by now.
One had to know that the Black Moon Tower sold countless resources and treasures.
Those heretic cultivators all liked to kill people and steal treasures. If the Black Moon Tower was not strong enough, it would have long since been plundered by the evil imperial court.
“There’s a one-star Tower Lord guarding the Southern Region. It’s rumored that he’s only half a step away from the emperor realm. Generally speaking, the experts of the guard department are all stronger. There might be an emperor realm expert there,” Bao Hongyan spoke with uncertainty.
Chu Xuan thought for a moment before giving up on the idea of controlling the one-star Tower Lord.
If the one-star Tower Lord was only a step away from reaching the Emperor realm, it was likely that he would not be able to control the person without anyone noticing.
Once he was exposed, he would no longer be able to secretly slowly gain control of the Black Moon Tower.
“Do you know about the Asura Ancient Land?”
“A little.”
Thanks to Bao Hongyan, the gold-level Tower Lord, Chu Xuan finally received some information about the Asura Ancient Land.
“Speak.”
“Yes, my Lord.”
According to what Bao Hongyan said, the Asura Ancient Land was the site of a huge battle that broke out in the Southern Region when the demon race invaded the Northern Zone in ancient times.
It was because of this huge battle that the Southern Region’s ley lines collapsed and the laws of Heaven and Earth were incomplete. All the emperor realm experts and above that were left behind after the war also withdrew from the Southern Region.
As for the Asura Ancient Land, after the collapse of the ley lines and the damage to the laws of Heaven and Earth, it disappeared into the space that had been torn apart.
According to their calculations, when the ley lines and the laws of Heaven and Earth of the Southern Region recovered the Asura Ancient Land would reappear.
Back then, when they fought against the demons, countless experts had died. There had to be many treasures and inheritances within, which was why the various major powers would send people to explore the ruins.
As it had been too long, those who knew of the Asura Ancient Land were all super powers of one kind or another. Hence, these major powers were all fighting for spots to participate.
Once it was confirmed, they would begin to take action.
Of course, it would still be some time before the Asura Ancient Land reappeared. Within 20 to 30 years, there was a high probability that no major powers would set foot in the Southern Region.
Chu Xuan let out a sigh of relief. If no major powers’ experts would set foot into the Southern Region in 20 to 30 years, then he still had enough time to become stronger.
However, he could not let his guard down. What if an itinerant cultivator like Du Yuan sneaked into the Southern Region in advance?
Although they would hide themselves and shy away from trouble to avoid arousing any attention, they were still an unstable factor.
For Chu Xuan, who was pursuing stability, all uncontrollable factors were potential sources of hidden danger.
He immediately instructed Bao Hongyan to keep an eye out for any emperor-level or above powerhouses who appeared in the Southern Region. Once there was any information, she was to inform him immediately.
He gave Bao Hongyan a communication talisman so that they could keep in touch at all times.
Chu Xuan did not plan to promote the parent-child communication talisman before he had enough strength to fully control the Black Moon Tower in the Southern Region.
Moreover, Chu Xuan felt that the parent-child communication talisman needed to be further upgraded. With a higher-level parent-child communication talisman, he could control many more child talismans.
He needed manpower to refine the parent-child communication talisman. He did not plan to do it himself. Therefore, he had to find someone with outstanding talent and great luck to appear.
