"What, is there a problem with me wanting to see the King of Extreme Martial Arts?" Ye Ling asked Bai Xiaosheng, who looked shocked, with a smile.
In the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts, the ultimate goal of all martial artists was to gain the favor of the King of Extreme Martial Arts, comprehend the true meaning of martial arts, and reach the pinnacle of martial arts cultivation!
Ye Ling's direct request to Bai Xiaosheng to see the King of Extreme Martial Arts would, in fact, clear him of suspicion for not being a native of the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts.
"There's no problem with you wanting to see the King of Extreme Martial Arts."
Bai Xiaosheng calmed down, took a deep breath, and then asked Ye Ling in a deep voice, "But how did you know my identity?"
"Wu Mei told me," Ye Ling said without hesitation, betraying Wu Mei.
"Wu Mei..."
Upon hearing Ye Ling's answer, Bai Xiaosheng recalled and confirmed that he had revealed his identity to Wu Mei. Only then did he relax and say to Ye Ling, "Wang Li Ren, you can't just see the King of Extreme Martial Arts whenever you want."
"There must be a standard, right?" Ye Ling asked.
Bai Xiaosheng said, "The simplest way is to stand out in the Myriad Dynasties Martial Meet. The winner will have the qualification to meet the King of Extreme Martial Arts." Bai Xiaosheng said in a deep voice, "However, you have already killed Wu Yue. The Wu Dynasty, having lost its leader, will also lose its qualification to participate in the Myriad Dynasties Martial Meet."
"Moreover, there are many powerful individuals in the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts. I admit you are strong, but you are still far from the heroes of the world. With your strength, it is as difficult as ascending to heaven to achieve first place in Extreme Martial Arts!"
"Are there any other ways?" Ye Ling asked again.
He had long guessed that participating in the Myriad Dynasties Martial Meet would offer a chance to meet the Primal Martial King, but this was the last resort, time-consuming and energy-draining. If there were no other options, he would not have chosen it.
"Of course, there are other ways," Bai Xiaosheng snorted. "The King of Extreme Martial Arts might transform into anyone and travel through the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts. Those who are fortunate enough to be noticed by the King of Extreme Martial Arts can also meet him."
"I doubt I have that kind of fortune. Are there any other ways?" Ye Ling continued to ask.
If the Primal Martial King truly discovered Ye Ling in the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts, then the Primal Martial King would not only not show himself voluntarily, but Ye Ling would be grateful if he didn't leave the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts.
"If you can't get first place in Extreme Martial Arts, and you don't have the fortune, then to see the King of Extreme Martial Arts, you have to rely on us, the envoys of the King of Extreme Martial Arts, to recommend you and become an envoy."
"Rely on your recommendation?"
"That's right. If I believe you are qualified to be an envoy of the King of Extreme Martial Arts, then I can recommend you to the King of Extreme Martial Arts. After you become an envoy, you can meet the King of Extreme Martial Arts and work for him."
"Do you think I have a chance?"
"No."
Bai Xiaosheng denied Ye Ling without hesitation, his eyes extremely cold. "Why do you think I would recommend you to the King of Extreme Martial Arts after you ruined my twenty-year promotion plan?"
"Let me think..."
Ye Ling pretended to think seriously and then said to Bai Xiaosheng, "I originally planned to kill you. If you are willing to be my recommender, I can consider sparing your life."
"Exchanging your life for a recommendation spot, what do you say?"
"Arrogant!"
Bai Xiaosheng roared in anger, instantly transforming into a phantom and charging towards Ye Ling with incredible speed. "I'd like to see what you'll use to take my life!"
"Taking your life is simple!"
Ye Ling smiled slightly as he watched Bai Xiaosheng charge at him, brought his fingers together, and gently pointed forward. His fingertips easily pressed against Bai Xiaosheng's forehead.
Bai Xiaosheng stopped instantly, and the hall became quiet again, the atmosphere gradually becoming eerie.
The imperial guards and grand masters outside the hall watched Ye Ling place his fingers on Bai Xiaosheng's forehead, feeling as if they had seen this scene before.
"You..."
Cold sweat beaded on Bai Xiaosheng's forehead. His forehead was being pressed by Ye Ling's fingers, and he dared not move at all!
If Ye Ling exerted force with his fingers now, Bai Xiaosheng believed that his forehead would definitely be pierced by Ye Ling's fingers!
A fatal blow!
At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng realized... the gap between him and Ye Ling was as vast as the gap between Huang Ke and himself!
Ye Ling, pressing Bai Xiaosheng's head with his fingers, asked with a smile, "Now, do you want to be my recommender?"
Bai Xiaosheng swallowed and then said, "I can be your recommender and let you become an envoy of the King of Extreme Martial Arts, but I cannot guarantee that the King of Extreme Martial Arts will see you."
"Why?" Ye Ling raised an eyebrow. "Didn't you say that after becoming an envoy, you can meet the King of Extreme Martial Arts?"
"According to the rules, yes. But recently, it's a special period. Ordinary envoys cannot see the King of Extreme Martial Arts. My Wu Dynasty is only a medium-sized dynasty in the Realm of Extreme Martial Arts, and my status among the envoys is not high..."
"Even if I recommend you to become an envoy, you will likely be assigned to a small border country and have no chance to see the King of Extreme Martial Arts!"
"There's such a thing?" Ye Ling was stunned. "Why is it a special period?"
"I don't know about this either. It's a notice recently issued by the King of Extreme Martial Arts, requiring all envoys to remain silent and not expose their identities."
When his life was threatened, Bai Xiaosheng possessed excellent patience and explained all the issues to Ye Ling in detail.
Ye Ling also understood the reason why the Primal Martial King was keeping silent, but outwardly, he appeared troubled and sighed, "This is troublesome. My lifelong wish is to meet the King of Extreme Martial Arts. I didn't expect to be born at the wrong time!"
Ye Ling lamented, appearing extremely grieved and unwilling for his inability to meet the King of Extreme Martial Arts.
Seeing Ye Ling's unwilling expression, Bai Xiaosheng regarded Ye Ling as an extreme admirer of the King of Extreme Martial Arts and then said, "Actually, after I recommend you to become an envoy, you still have a way to see the King of Extreme Martial Arts."
"What way?" Ye Ling's eyes reignited with hope, as if he had grasped a lifeline.
Bai Xiaosheng took a deep breath and said, "The Myriad Dynasties Martial Meet is the grandest martial arts gathering in our Eastern Region. Before the Myriad Dynasties Martial Meet is held, all envoys in this region will attend a gathering, and one of them is a confidant of the King of Extreme Martial Arts."
"If you can build a good relationship with that envoy at the gathering, you might be able to rely on him to meet the King of Extreme Martial Arts."
"When does that gathering start?" Ye Ling asked again, as if he had already decided to have Bai Xiaosheng as his recommender.
Hearing Ye Ling's question, Bai Xiaosheng's mouth twitched, but due to Ye Ling's strength, he dared not say anything. He simply said, "It will start soon, in three days. The location has been set at the border between the Wu Dynasty and the Ling Dynasty, Cang Yue City."
"Cang, Cang Yue City?" Ye Ling was suddenly stunned.
"What, is there a problem?" Bai Xiaosheng didn't think there was anything wrong. "Cang Yue City is a famous city in the Eastern Region. I think it's very suitable as a venue for the envoy gathering."
"Why does it have to be Cang Yue City..."
Ye Ling gave a wry smile. He had just caused a scene in Cang Yue City, and now he had teleported to the capital to cause trouble. If Bai Xiaosheng went to Cang Yue City, he would be exposed immediately.
As a result...
Bai Xiaosheng still had to die?
Ye Ling thought, sizing up Bai Xiaosheng, his gaze changed once again.
