《Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King》Chapter 82 - Getting Information
Advertisement
When Xiao Lin entered, he sat down at a chair and began to behave like he was here to drink.
And since the people serving jars of wines in the inn noticed that Xiao Lin had entered, one of them went to meet him and ask "What wine would you like to take?"
"Can I see your list so I may know which one to pick?" Xiao Lin asked.
"Certainly" The person in front of him replied.
He then produced a long paper and handed it to Xiao Lin who began to go through it like he was totally serious about drinking wine at this inn.
After looking at it for sometime, where he began to go through the various types of wines that they could offer at this inn, his eyes stopped at one and then he pointed it.
"Here, give me this one" He said.
"Okay" The person before him nodded his head.
And when he retrieved the paper which was a list that he gave to Xiao Lin, he headed off to the room where the vessels containing all the wines mentioned in the list were kept.
As soon as the person before him left, Xiao Lin began to look around. And as he did so, he put his ears out to listen to everything that would be said in the room.
...
"The legacy ground of one of the legend of this town, the Azure Firestorm Archer, situated at the Lavastone Valley will be opening soon, in like a week or two weeks time. And it's open to both rogue cultivators like us and the disciples from each of the sects in this town and other neighboring towns." Someone who wore a mask made from animal hides and a hat, and seated at a table that surrounded by five other people also wearing masks and hats said.

Once he said this, the others nodded their heads with one saying "Yes, Ironfingers. That was why we came to this town, for this particular legacy that mentions that part of the wealth of this legend consisted of mostly, self-forged bows and arrows of all sorts which possesses great penetration power."
"If we can get our hands on those and sell them since we wouldn't be really needing them, we would make lots of money that we can use to buy Spiritual Cultivation Resources that will act as a massive boon to our cultivation growth. Then apart from that, there would be so many other things in his wealth that we can sell off and then use the money gained from their trades to buy other stuffs like Spiritual Treasures and Artifacts for ourselves"
"Yes, Gu Luo." One said, trying to contribute.
He then said further "But the opening of the legacy ground is earlier this time. What has really happened? Is there a change in something that caused the legacy ground to announce itself very early to the people of this town? I have always thought that it would be a month or two months time before the legacy ground will be opened to anyone again. But alas, I was proved wrong."
"Well, whether there is a change to anything or not, that doesn't really concern us. What we are after is the wealth of the legendary Azure Firestorm Archer. If we can get our hands on those, we have simply made it."
"Although the battle in there for his wealth will be on another scale, but I believe that we can do it. With all that we have gathered in preparation for seizing this particular legacy, I think no one, rogue cultivators or the disciples from the different sects in this town and from other towns should be able to stand up to us." Ironfingers said while others nodded their heads agreeably.

As they said all these, Xiao Lin was at a place in the inn, carefully listening to their discussions as he didn't want to miss out on any bit of information that may be propagated.
After the rogue cultivators finished the jars of wines placed on their tables, they stood to their feet to leave the inn.
Xiao Lin who had been given the jar of wine that he requested for from that list, didn't bother tasting it, as it was a great abomination to his internal system which had been completely altered to accept only blood from any creature, humans especially.
Then when the masked and hat-wearing rogue cultivators left, Xiao Lin began to contemplate on everything that they mentioned about.
"Now that I have discovered that a legacy ground will be opening soon, probably in a week or in two weeks time, it's time for me to start making heavy preparations towards it. And like that rogue cultivator called Ironfingers rightly said, the battle in there would be on another level, as it's the wealth and accumulations of a legend of this town that we are talking about. So, no one would want such opportunity to elude him or her"
"Besides, I am sure that a shocking number of people like rogue cultivators, disciples of many different sects, and acolytes of a particular famous or infamous cultivator would gather at the legacy ground on that day. Therefore meaning that the battle which would occur for the Archer's inheritance, would be intense and extremely fierce." Xiao Lin said with a pondering gaze in his eyes.
Then he looked inwardly at his dantian and saw that it was only his Cultivation Base that was radiating power as it was filled to the brim with his unique, dark-colored Spiritual Energy. Also, the numbers of Demon Marks condensed in his dantian also gave out perceivable fluctuations of power as it was totally filled with Hermetic Demonic Energy. It was however only his Ordinary Blood Symbols that looked very dull and near-lifeless, as they had been completely exhausted of Blood Energy.
Seeing the state of his Ordinary Blood Symbols, Xiao Lin shook his head.
He then said "Now, I have to kill lots of people again to be able to get Blood Energy which I would channel into my Ordinary Blood Symbols to fill them with vibrancy and power again. Ugh!"
"I just wish that Blood Pills existed, it would tremendously help me, as there would be no need for me to kill more people for energy when my Ordinary Blood Symbols run out of Blood Energy"
"Well, I guess I would have to kill many people again to regenerate my fully expended Blood Energy."
"But where would lots of people or cultivators be gathered so that I can slay them all at once and turn their bloods into Blood Energy for my Ordinary Blood Symbols?"

Forbidden Destiny
Two troubled teens, raised as siblings, try fighting their attraction to one another, while struggling to uncover the truly unexplainable and unimaginable reasons why their entire lives were a lie. Sky and Star were raised as brother and sister. As they got older they began to realize that there was much about them that was completely unexplainable and deliberately being hidden from them. Struggling with the feelings they were raised to believe they shouldn't have for one another, and all the pain that causes them, the two search desperately to uncover the truth about who... or what they really are. (This book is completed, so the plan was to post 1 chapter each day until the end) *This story does deal with difficult issues such as suicide, abuse and rape. Though I try to do so in the most realistic, sensitive and sympathetic way possible. So be advised that these themes are included in the book. And I hope you'll give it a chance nonetheless.* *Yet another disclaimer: Yes, there are teenagers involved in consensual sexual relationships with other teenagers in this book. Which is also a more than common occurence in hundreds of other books, shows and films, (not to mention a common occurence in real life, even though this is a fantasy story with characters who may or may not even be fully human), so if you have a problem with troubled teens behaving like troubled teens, then you probably shouldn't read this book.*

John Doe is a relatively intelligent high school junior. He is in all the super advanced classes, gets straight A's, and to top it off, he is pretty lazy as well. However, he is quite cocky about it and has the physical strength to back it up. Needless to say, he is the target of lots of jealousy in school. No one dares to bully him, because THAT is more or less a metaphorical death wish, but he is the center of lots of gossip and attention. He has a good life. Fortunately for John, his school is the largest in the world and so there were still many students who didn't know about him to annoy him. Unfortunately for John, he attracted the attention of a certain student who seems friendly enough but definitely has ulterior motives. This student will show John something that will change his life forever... **No, this is not a romance(yet at least) and the "certain student" is a guy lol so don't get any ideas** Author's Message: Hey, everyone.
