Chapter 203: Exiled? Part1

Xander silently stood and listened to everything Tang Yue said. 

Flickers of emotion crossed his face as the snake narrated the events that had transpired in the labyrinth one by one.

Tang Yue was not sure just how much had registered in his brain from the first time she had blurted things out, but she knew that she would be foolish to underestimate a Demi-God realm expert.

She didn’t think that her small flashing incident would have shocked him so much.

So she didn’t dare to change the important parts of the story.

Even if the man by chance detected a small discrepancy between what she had told him earlier and now, there was a possibility that he might not trust her completely.

So she had no other option but to bite the bullet and explain in detail what had happened.

Of course, she still left out the minor details like her obtaining a soul weapon and all the other precious materials.

However, she did tell him about the black orbs and the souls which she had absorbed.

“Ummm… Your highness, I tried my best to eliminate that human being. I really did.” She said.

Tang Yue stole a couple of glances at the man’s face and she did not like what she saw.

Xander had an extremely grim and bleak expression. His previous frivolousness was no longer present.

He silently stood there for a while, before turning and leaving the chamber.

Tang Yue did not know, but with this vital information that she gave him, Xander was able to instantly connect all the dots.

Too many unpredictable things had happened lately and it looked like everything could be connected to that human being.

He had investigated a lot on what happened to dwarven emissaries but no one was able to find any clues.

If the human could enter and exit the labyrinth even when Xander was present in the vicinity, then that only meant that the same human being could have assassinated the dwarves as well with great ease.

If that were to be true, the tribulation lightning could possibly be related to the same person as well…

Xander didn’t care about these trivial things, but the main question on his mind was just how the hell did a human being cross the ocean and get here?

More importantly, why did he do so and especially now?

Did he come for the tribulation lightning treasure?

Did he come here for the ancient labyrinth?

Or did he come here for sowing discord among the various clans and the nine nations?

The last possibility was particularly dangerous. 

If a human being wanted to sow discord between the nine nations, then that could only mean that war was inevitable in the near future.

Xander contemplated these potential ramifications in his mind and he turned around and left the chamber.

“You did well.” He mumbled as he walked away.

Only when his figure fully disappeared, Tang Yue sighed in relief. 

She couldn’t believe it but at least for now, it looked like the mad man had fully trusted everything she said.

She patted her chest and called out for Hinata to clear all the mess from her room.

Tang Yue felt as if a major weight was lifted from her shoulders and she was now free to actually sieve through everything she had picked up from the labyrinth and not to mention her own upgrades.

The black soul strings were no longer attached to her and she wanted to see how much she had gained.

Tang Yue summoned her status screen and immediately an array of notifications started bombarding her mind.

The snake grinned and excitedly checked her progress.

Unlike the mental strength, physical strength, and cultivation level, progress in soul strength was rather difficult to gauge superficially.

One would have to cast a magic spell such as Flame serpent or inscribe a rune to actually notice the change.

But then, of course, the snake has her special master and her special system. So she didn’t have to do any of that.

She scrolled through the various minor upgrade notifications and paused on the important ones.

Ding. Congratulations. Soul Strength has been upgraded to Silver-tier Martial Soul

Ding. 2000 Experience Points have been rewarded.

….

Ding. Congratulations. Soul Strength has been upgraded to Gold-tier Martial Soul

Ding. 2000 Experience Points have been rewarded.

….

Ding. Congratulations. Soul Strength has been upgraded to Bronze-tier Emperor Soul

Ding. 5000 Experience Points have been rewarded.

….

….

….

….

Tang Yue slightly gasped as her emerald eyes moved from one notification to the other.

It looked like suddenly her soul strength had skyrocketed all the way from Martial realm to….

Tang Yue hastily flicked away all the small details and her eyes trailed down to the end of the list.

Her heart rate was slowly and steadily increasing as she gazed at one notification after another.

When she was at the end of the list, even a small shriek escaped her lips and she jumped out of the bed in fright.

“Demi… Demi-God realm?” She couldn’t believe what she was seeing.

But the notification, bold and clear was definitely flashing in front of her!

Ding. Congratulations. Soul Strength has been upgraded to Bronze-tier Demi-God Soul

Ding. 100000 Experience Points have been rewarded.

….

Ding. Congratulations. Soul Strength has been upgraded to Silver-tier Demi-God Soul

Ding. 100000 Experience Points have been rewarded.

….

“How can this be true?” The snake trembled.

She immediately closed away all the nonsensical illusionary screens and the weird system interface.

She then hurriedly shook her hand and focused her spiraling mind to materialize a few tongues of flame.

Even though one elemental magic mainly relied on one’s cultivation base, both soul strength and mental strength were required to gain control of the overall spell.

Now that both her mental strength and soul strength were upgraded, something like a Flame serpent spell should be theoretically relatively easy to cast.

So Tang Yue flicked her hand and cast the spell to see just exactly how much she had grown and in the next instant, a gigantic flame python roared alive in her chamber.
