Chapter 1416: Soul Control
âThatâs right.â Ning Biluo said, âI have thought that the organization might have a way to control me, but I am sure I wonât submit to them because I am always alone⊠So I didnât think much about it afterwardâŠ
âHowever, when I truly joined them, I learned how they control people. The universe is unbelievably broad. A small figure from a low realm can never know all.â
Ning Biluo said, âIt turns out they are using some secret method. First, they make you pay homage to a mysterious altar⊠While the ceremony was ongoing, the altar would spread out some dark lightsâŠ
âWhen the dark lights shined, all the people in the ceremony would be dragged out a slight piece of soul.â
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and looked at Ning Biluo.
He didnât expect him to do such a big thing on his own.
âAlthough they only took a little of peopleâs soul, that tiny piece of soul became the key to control those people. Once anybody betrayed the organization, the power of the altar would torture the traitor for a lifetime, and the traitor would beg for deathâŠ
âIf the traitor was solitary, it only tortured him alone. If the traitor has families, the families would be controlled too. His familiesâ life and death all depend on the man alone. Once he betrayed the organization, his entire family would suffer.â
Ye Xiao nodded. âThat is why no matter how I question them, none of them tell me anything⊠I was curious. I know there are lots of tough men in the martial world, but I donât think all men are toughâŠâ
Ning Biluo smiled and said, âAfter the soul extraction ceremony, I got to know one more thing⊠During the extraction process, they put something into my body⊠It eases the pain. With that thing inside, I feel only one-tenth of the pain when I get hurt or tortured!â
âThatâs it. That is the reason!â
Ye Xiao made a long sigh.
The double insurance made the system work perfectly in secrecy!
The organization was brilliant in schemes.
Ye Xiao nodded and thought, [It is reasonable to do this. They have to go extreme because their imaginary enemies were Master Bai, Wan of Clouds, and Xiu of Heavens.]
[They had to make sure Master Bai couldnât find them.]
[Otherwise, with Master Baiâs great power, he could have destroyed the organization thoroughly within a day!]
[He didnât even need do it himself. Wan of Clouds and Xiu of Heavens were enough to uproot them all.]
[That is why they need such extreme methods to keep their secrets.]
[Well, people like us are helpless to make them talk, but Master Bai is different. When we were in the Land of Han-Yang, we were at the top of the world. However, in this world, we are just tiny shrimps. Ning Biluo was right. Knowing more makes a man realize his ignorance!]
[The leaders in that organization probably just did their best to feel good about it yet couldnât truly get what they want!]
[No wonder after a long time of unendurable torture by Elder Xuan Bing and I, those people in black clothes actually kept their mouth shut.]
Suddenly, Ye Xiao thought of something very important. His face expression changed, and he asked, âYou know so much about the system. When you joined them, you must have been through the extraction process too⊠Why are youâŠ?â
Ye Xiao looked at Ning Biluo with uncertainty.
He wasnât worried that Ning Biluo might have been truly recruited by the organization, but he was worried that Ning Biluo might get himself hurt by the organization!
Ye Xiao could feel that the mysterious altar was not something from Qing-Yun Realm. It might come from some higher realm like Human Realm Upon Heavens. If Ning Biluo got hurt by its power, there was nothing Ye Xiao could do to help!
Ning Biluo blandly smiled and said, âMaster, you gave us the second life in Land of Han-Yang. When I joined that organization, I did it because I never forgot what you did for me. Even if I will die because of it, I have to do what is right to do.
âSecret organizations always have some special methods to control the people. I knew it, but I still went for it⊠because⊠As long as I can keep staying inside the organization, I will get some information that I can tell you. I just want to get something that gives you initiative in this war. A man should die for the person who respects him. That is not just a sayingâŠâ
Ye Xiao and Jun Yinglian were shocked.
When they looked at Ning Biluo, they were different. Nobody had expected Ning Biluo to do things in such a way.
He actually would like to sacrifice himself to get some news for Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao felt warm in the heart, and he said, âNing, you shouldnât do thatâŠâ
He knew that Ning Biluo did that to return the favor. He had helped Ning Biluo a few times back in Land of Han-Yang. However, Ning Biluo didnât like to owe people anything. He only owed Ye Xiao a lot. Back in the old days, Ning Biluo used to said, âOnly death could return the great favor to you!â
What he was doing actually was proving what he once had said!
He smiled and said, âIt has been a long time since we last met, master. Why are you like a woman now. There is no need to put it in your heart. When people said the heavens blessed nice people, I always turned up my nose at it. However, this time⊠Zhao Pingtian and his wife have solved my problem on the reverse impact on my soul. It turns out I am a nice man. The reverse impact that nobody could get away from was actually solved!â
He actually smiled warmly and looked at Zhao Pingtian, which was rare.
Zhao Pingtian smiled too.
The two great assassins, who never showed a warm face, actually became so⊠friendly to each other. It was a great picture! People would love to see it!
Ning Biluo said, âWhen I got in, I found Zhao Pingtian there. However, he was just like me, showing a cold face, difficult to reach⊠One day, when we are on a mission to kill somebody, he finally came to me and asked for a secret meetingâŠ
âWhen we first met, he talked to me about the reverse impact on my soul. Then he let Rouâer extract a little bit of soul out of me so that the altar lost control of my soul. After that, she used some special technique to fix my broken soul.â
Ning Biluo looked painful, and he said like he was still experiencing it. âWhen the soul was extracted⊠It was⊠It was soâŠâ
He even looked frightened too.
Then he shook his head, smiled bitterly. âThat was something I donât want to think of anymore. I am not going to let that happen on me again.â
âI see. How things changed! The heavens do bless nice people.â Ye Xiao was relieved, and he smiled to Zhao Pingtian. âPingtian, that is such a capable wife you have.â
Zhao Pingtian bashfully smiled.
If anybody knew Zhao Pintian in the old days saw him now, they wouldnât believe this man with a warm and shy smile was actually the killer king, Zhao Pingtian!
Ye Xiao asked, âWhere is Rouâer? Why isnât she with you?â
Behind Zhao Pingtian, a cloud of dark fog appeared and then a beautiful body of a lady showed up as a phantom. She smiled at everybody and said, âMaster, I am here.â
Ye Xiao laughed and said, âLady Rouâer is truly much stronger than before. You can actually hide yourself so well. You even got me! Impressive! Come here, I happen to have something that may help you better.â
Then a small jade bottle showed up in his hand. In the bottle, there was a cloud of white dense mist.
Rouâer looked at it and her eyes lit up. She couldnât stop looking with eagerness.
Zhao Pingtian was also shocked by what was inside that bottle. He was shaken up, and then exclaimed, stared at the small bottle, couldnât move away.
Ye Xiao used to tell Zhao Pingtian and Rouâer about several ways for the couple to meet again. One of it was to let Rouâer reincarnate with her memory, which was low-risk. Now, she was ready to have it. However, it took a long time, and nobody knew what she would look like in the future. She might even become a man. That aside, whoever protected her when the reincarnation happened would have to suffer from the divine thunder punishment. This was obviously the last option.
The second way was to make Yin Dan with nine precious materials. With a Yin Dan bead, Rouâer could become a soul of the death and then a soul of Yang energy from a ghost. That meant Rouâer would eventually be with Zhao Pingtian for the rest of their lives.
Zhao Pingtian and Rouâer had learned a lot since they left the lower realm. When they saw the spiritual energy and Yin qi inside the bottle, they thought that it was the Yin Dan!
âWell, this is not Yin Dan. It is much weaker than Yin Dan, to be honest. However, for Rouâer, it is still very helpful.â
Ye Xiao smiled and said, âIt takes great luck to collect enough materials to make Yin Dan. Just be patient. Try this Ultimate Essence of Originality!â
Then he handed over the Ultimate Essence of Originality.
Zhao Pingtian took it over with his shaking hands, opened the bottle, and some creamy fog flew out.
Rouâer was thrilled too. She slightly opened her mouth and that creamy fog flew into her mouth. After a while, her body looked more solid.
Her face even looked rosy like a human being.
Apparently, that Ultimate Essence of Originality did help her a lot.
âThank you, master!â Zhao Pingtian looked at Rouâer, and he burst into tears with joy.
âNo need, Pingtian. When we ascend to Human Realm Upon Heavens, it is the day you two can finally hold together!â
Ye Xiao seriously said, âSo, you have to take care.â
Zhao Pingtian nodded. âYes! I will! In fact, I feel bad. I happened to know Rouâer could extract soul and fix up my soul. If I didnât know, I wouldnât join the organization for you. I am truly much worse than Brother NingâŠâ
âYou two have been inside the organization. I think you know much that we donât.â Jun Yinglian asked.
âYes.â Ning Biluo said, âWe have gathered some information, which may not be important to the organization, but important to us.

âFirst, what we are doing⊠They sent us here secretly, and we are not the only moles here. We are in a team that has twenty people. Our team is only a small part of a big group of people. Before we came, our leader told us to compete with the other teams!
âWhich means⊠The entire big group was out on this mission. I donât know how many teams and how many people they have. I heard that some other big groups came here tooâŠâ
Ning Biluo looked cautious, and said, âIn our opinion, one big group has at least six teams, which has at least a hundred and twenty people⊠Letâs say there are six big groups⊠It means they have sent about eight hundred people hereâŠ
âWhen I came here and saw the scale of this base, I think that should have sent sixteen hundred people at least⊠But then I thought, over a thousand people among a huge amount of people could never stir up any big trouble⊠I guess⊠At least three thousand men in black clothes are undercover here!â
