Chapter 202: It's Already Over

"Senior, this junior really can't calm down!"

Yang Qiu's face was bloodless.

A Great Emperor could cross over at any moment, and they had no way to deal with it. Thinking of the future, Yang Qiu's heart turned cold.

"It's just a Great Emperor's imprint," Li Yun said, as if it were nothing.

"A Great Emperor's imprint?"

Yang Qiu was dumbfounded.

An imprint left by a Great Emperor could be dismissed as 'just' an imprint?

This thing was a death list! Without the strength of a Great Emperor, there was absolutely no escape. Even if one fled to the ends of the earth, it would still be a dead end.

The reason that Great Emperor from the Blood Phantom Realm hadn't come over yet was because he was preparing for his nirvana and rebirth.

If he weren't in his twilight years, Yang Qiu felt he wouldn't have even had the chance to see the Pavilion Master.

"Could it be…"

Yang Qiu's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Senior has a way?"

"What do you think?" Li Yun retorted.

Outside, with only a Saint's cultivation, he would have no way to deal with a Great Emperor's imprint. But in the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, he was a god!

Never mind a Great Emperor.

Even if someone stronger came, they would have to behave themselves.

As for the imprint left by the Blood Phantom Realm's Great Emperor, he could create a whole pile of them in minutes and place them on every person who stepped into the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.

He could even do it more perfectly than the Blood Phantom Realm's Great Emperor, without anyone noticing.

"Excellent!" Yang Qiu said with pleasant surprise.

As he spoke, he took out a jade slip and directly sent a message to Meng Qingzhi, who was billions of li away.

Meng Qingzhi, who was currently discussing the ownership of the Imperial Weapon with two other Quasi-Emperors, felt a flicker of movement. He glanced at the jade slip in his hand and instantly let out a sigh of relief.

The Pavilion Master is truly worthy of his title!

This is a sure thing!

With the senior making a move, a mere Great Emperor from the Blood Phantom Realm didn't seem so terrifying. If he really crossed over, could he bypass the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and unify this realm?

Dream on!

"Finished with your message?"

In the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, Li Yun watched Yang Qiu's actions without stopping him and spoke leisurely.

Although the main business of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was selling information, developing a side business of erasing imprints left by Great Emperors seemed feasible. After all, he didn't need the system to take a cut of this transaction!

Everything was his to keep.

Helping Yang Qiu erase the imprint wouldn't earn him much. At best, Yang Qiu was a Saint. To put it bluntly, his life or death was of little significance to the Nine Nether Demon Sect.

Just a single Saint. Even if he fell, the Nine Nether Demon Sect wouldn't be greatly weakened.

But Meng Qingzhi was different.

If he were to step into the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, this transaction would need to be discussed carefully.

"Er…"

Yang Qiu's face stiffened. Holding the jade slip, he gave an embarrassed smile and said, "Finished."

Although he knew the senior wouldn't mind, to so openly send a message still made him a little embarrassed.

"The meaning of the imprint left by this Blood Phantom Realm Great Emperor, I trust you understand," Li Yun said in a deep voice.

"This junior understands." Yang Qiu nodded.

This was a Great Emperor's kill list. Those with the imprint on their divine souls would be settled with one by one. When that Great Emperor came over, what would happen to others was hard to say.

But they would surely face a dead end.

"So…"

Li Yun drew out his voice, not finishing his sentence, but Yang Qiu already understood.

"Senior, name your price!" Yang Qiu gritted his teeth and spat out the words.

For the sake of his own life, he had to agree to any price. Otherwise, when that Great Emperor came over, it would be too late for regrets. The Nine Nether Demon Sect didn't have the foundation of the Ye Imperial Clan or the Golden Crow Clan.

"Three Saint-level items."

Li Yun held up three fingers and said faintly.

"Three?"

Yang Qiu was stunned.

This value exceeded his expectations. He was a Saint. To help him erase a Great Emperor's imprint would cost three Saint-level items.

By that logic, what about their Nine Nether Demon Sect's ancestor, Meng Qingzhi?

He was a Quasi-Emperor!

Yang Qiu wasn't shocked for himself, but for his ancestor. His heart was bleeding for him.

If Ancestor Meng Qingzhi came to the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and had to produce three Quasi-Emperor-level items, a large part of their Nine Nether Demon Sect's foundation would be gone in an instant!

"Rest assured, this Li is not so black-hearted."

Li Yun glanced at Yang Qiu's thoughts and spoke.

It was a business with no cost, so he definitely had to make a profit, but he wouldn't be too ruthless. To demand half of the Nine Nether Demon Sect's foundation was simply unrealistic.

Meng Qingzhi wouldn't agree.

Their Nine Nether Demon Sect, besides him, a Quasi-Emperor, and an Imperial Weapon, it was hard to say if they even had three other Quasi-Emperor-level items.

After all, he had previously traded his Quasi-Emperor cultivation method and Quasi-Emperor weapon.

Currently, Meng Qingzhi was probably the poorest among all the Quasi-Emperors.

"That's good."

Yang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. He took out three Saint-level items, placed them before Li Yun, and said, "Then I'll trouble Senior to help this junior erase the imprint."

After the war with the Bloodfiend Clan, Yang Qiu could still produce these items. His recently shrunken fortune had been replenished by this war.

"A small matter."

Li Yun collected the items and waved his hand slightly.

The air fell silent.

After a quarter of an hour.

Yang Qiu's face was flushed red. He said suspiciously, "Senior, you can begin now."

"It's already over."
