Chapter 274: Breaking the Talk
In front of the villa.
Baiyu pushed open the main door.
Yi Xian sat on the sofa, wearing a moon-white robe, holding a thick book in her hand.
Upon hearing the noise,
she raised her head and casually put down the book: "You're here?"
"What did you want to see me about, teacher?" Baiyu stood on the other side of the coffee table.
"Have a seat first."
Yi Xian's willow-leaf eyebrows gently curved, with a trace of a smile between her brows: "Recently, I've learned quite a bit about you, the matters in Linjiang City, it seems that you resolved them, didn't you?"
"Just luck."
Baiyu felt a bad premonition in his heart.
The fact that Yi Xian is a Black Moon Apostle, he has never forgotten.
And the divine relic of the "Fifteenth Black Moon," the Eye of the Black Moon, was still with Baiyu.
Although after the Kaz incident, the Eye of the Black Moon seemed to have lost its function, Baiyu could still feel the terrifying energy contained within it.
Restoration.
It's only a matter of time.
The Eye of the Black Moon, this is probably something every Black Moon follower wants to obtain.
"Luck? In the realm of the mysterious, there is no luck. Everything has a cause."
Yi Xian crossed her legs, revealing her fair skin:
"Your ability to enter the Black Moon Divine Country is not just luck.
Kaz was a Black Moon Apostle, but his heart had long decayed, falling into the embrace of the Evil God.
But you're different.
You were able to come and go freely in the Black Fish Divine Country, surely... you've learned a lot about the Black Moon, right?"
Yi Xian's words were full of probes.
Baiyu furrowed his brows.
Is this how audacious Yi Xian is, even in the school?
No way.
If she dared to make a move, whether she could kill him was another matter, but the school would definitely have strongmen intervene immediately.
The four deans.
The vice principal, the principal.
And those old antiques in the school...
Even if a few Martial Arts Grandmasters suddenly appeared, Baiyu wouldn't be surprised.
"Don't worry.
You are the Imperial-appointed Baron and the heir to a Legendary Ship, closely linked with the Qiong Family, I certainly wouldn't dare to harm you, my dear student."
Yi Xian walked to the side, took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet, and poured two glasses.
"Teacher, you haven't said why you called me here."
The fact that she knew his information didn't surprise Baiyu.
If she didn't know, that would be strange.
Yi Xian gently handed over a glass of red wine and took a sip herself: "I want to confirm something, you are a Black Moon Apostle, right?"
"Teacher, you're joking. How could a student like me have any relation to the Black Moon."
"Is that so?"
Yi Xian smiled faintly, her eyes suddenly turning deep black.
Black flames surged up from the ground, enveloping the surroundings, instantly forming a barrier.
The black light screen formed a shell as if pulling a person into Eternal Hell.
The flames had no temperature but aimed to devour one's soul.
This is the power of the Black Moon!!
Baiyu was all too familiar with this.
The black flames around would devour one's spirituality.
The first time he met Tong Hui, she used this move.
It's just that.
When used by Yi Xian, the power was magnified by countless times.
Whoosh!
Baiyu no longer concealed, suddenly igniting black flames, and the surrounding flames were assimilated, causing no harm at all.
Bang!
He punched the black light screen.
The black crescent on his right arm emerged from beneath his skin.
The power of the Black Moon was undeniably evident on him.
Crack...
The light screen shattered.
In front of him was still the villa's hall.
Yi Xian stood in place, her eyes glinting, staring at Baiyu, who was only wearing shorts.
"Are you satisfied now?"
Baiyu dissipated the black flames on him, his gaze frosty.
"Ha, with merely a New Moon Level mark, you still emit such pure Black Moon Energy." Yi Xian's peach blossom eyes overflowed with joy:
"I truly have taken in a good student.
When you came to be my student, could it be that you wanted to kill me and devour the mark?"
As soon as her words fell, she pulled open her collar.
Underneath her exquisite collarbone, a round Black Moon Mark emitted a terrifying aura.
This...
At least a Full Moon Level mark!
"The way you're looking at me, I'm not some man-eating monster..."
Yi Xian sat back down: "Mutual devouring of marks is something only the lowest Black Moon Apostles do. They don't even deserve to be called apostles, at most just Moon Slaves."
"Moon Slave?"
Baiyu asked.
"Yes, Moon Slaves. They are merely slaves to the Black Moon. Are you interested in joining us?" Yi Xian's gaze was fixed on Baiyu, "The Black Moon Sect has never perished. Throughout the long river of time, we have always sought a way to break free from the Black Moon, generation after generation..."
"Break free?"
Baiyu stood still, already gripping a long blade in his hand.
"The Black Moon grants one immense power, but it also makes one... less human. This is a forbidden power belonging to the Divine Spirit, mortals shouldn't use it recklessly."
Yi Xian sneered.
"Oh? So you're saying you've found a solution?"
"No."
"Then why should I join you?"
"Don't you want to be recognized? Joining the Black Moon Sect, you'll receive a lot of help and methods to suppress Black Moon Power."
"Not interested."
Baiyu's tone was very calm.
The current situation was clear, Yi Xian didn't intend to kill him.
His New Moon Level mark was of no enhancement to someone who already possessed a Full Moon mark.
After a brief thought, the long blade in Baiyu's hand was directly snatched by Yi Xian.
With a flick of her arm, flakes of iron powder fell.
The newly forged A-Level alloy long blade was thus shattered into powder.
Immediately after,
she turned and took out a black hilt, black blades gathered on the hilt, quickly becoming a pitch-black long blade.
"Thinking carefully, as your teacher, I should give my student a meeting gift. This is the Moon Blade, able to devour one's spirituality. As for its sharpness, it's just below Living Iron."
Baiyu didn't reply, instead, he looked at her.
"Since you don't want to delve into the Black Moon, we'll talk about this matter later."
Yi Xian calmed down her emotions.
With so many years of cultivating patience, it was rare for her to get so excited.
Originally thought to be just an ordinary Black Moon Apostle, but this time, she encountered something remarkable.
With her Full Moon Level Black Moon Mark, she couldn't even sense it.
She lightly tapped her finger on the sofa and said: "Your current strength is still lacking, you must be using the Extreme Demon Bone Tempering Technique, right?
This is modified from the Demon's Spirit Technique.
Just in time.
The teacher happened to acquire some last time."
Yi Xian walked to the small bookshelf beside her, pulled it open, and took out three volumes of Spirit Techniques.
They were volumes three, four, and five of the Extreme Demon Bone Tempering Technique.
There's even a fifth volume!
Baiyu was somewhat surprised but quickly responded, "Teacher, you speak as if we're strangers, but as for the identity of a Black Moon Apostle, teacher, you still need to keep it a secret, right?"
"Keep it a secret?"
Yi Xian stared at Baiyu for a few seconds, then smiled: "The deans all know I'm a Black Moon Apostle, who would I need to keep it a secret from?"
