Battle Emperor Chapter 49

Hey guys, this is kind of a sudden announcement, but I plan on Chapter 50 being my last chapter. At least for the foreseeable future. I’ve been encouraged to stop translating and allow someone else who might be faster to take over.
The encouragement came at a convenient time because I’ve been wondering when I would stop anyway since I was not planning on finishing the entire series. I’m not going to say I appreciate that sort of encouragement, especially since it came off as rude and ungrateful, but it did help the decision process.

It’s been quite a journey from my original two or so readers to the amount its grown to now. I hope that someone else picks it up so I too can enjoy the story without having to spend time working on it and dealing with rude comments.

Anyways, enjoy.

Chapter 49

“What is it?” Qin Yueyi asked.

 

Xie Ao Yu also perked up his ears, he really wanted to know what could possibly attract so many people for the finale of the auction. He wanted to know what was so important that it would attract these clans.

 

 

Could it be a holy weapon?

 

Xie Ao Yu then thought of Qin Doug trying to obtain his Lightning Spirit Holy Sword. He couldn’t help but glance at Qin Doug with a hint of anger in his eyes.

 

“It’s a fighting technique.” Qin Doug replied.

 

Xie Ao Yu and Qin Yueyi were startled at the same time. The two looked at each other, feeling that it was a little unbelievable. Qin Yueyi couldn’t hold back and asked: “Second uncle, what fighting skill could attract all these people?”

 

 

“Infinite Spinning Sword!” Qin Doug said word by word.

(TN: Got a better translation? 无定飞旋刀)

 

“Never heard of it.” Qin Yueyi muttered.

 

As they were talking, they arrived at the front lobby.

 

 

Qin Doug sat at the head of the table, Xie Ao Yu and Qin Yueyi sat at the position below that. Some people brought up tea, and after they left, Qin Doug then said: “This Infinite Spinning Sword is kind of similar to the once sensational Overlord Dragon Boxing.”

 

 

Xie Ao Yu’s heart began to beat uncontrollably.

 

Since the creation of Overlord Dragon Boxing, among the sensations that it had caused, there was at least one time when the entire continent and its various forces fought over it. Rumors had it that even some of the most hidden and ancient clans became involved.

 

After all it was the masterpiece of a generation’s Grandmaster of Fighting Skills Ye Chao Feng. No matter who it was, if they obtained Overlord Dragon Boxing, they would all receive unimaginable benefits. In the end Xie Gan managed to obtain it.

 

 

And now that Xie Ao Yu had the Overlord Dragon Boxing, even though it was not too long ago, he had just gained in an insight into the fist’s meaning, and he had already undergone unbelievable changes. One could only imagine the power of Overlord Dragon Boxing.

 

And now there suddenly popped up a fighting skill that could be compared with Overlord Dragon Boxing. How could it not make a person feel amazed.

 

 

And also this fighting skill seemed to be a sword technique.

 

“Is the Infinite Spinning Sword also a ten thousand year masterpiece of the Grandmaster of Fighting Skills Ye Chao Feng?” Qin Yueyi asked.

 

“Of course it isn’t. The Infinite Spinning Sword is the number one fighting skill of the continent’s number one clan of the three great clans, Southern Palace, for the past thousand years, its power is definitely not inferior to Overlord Dragon Boxing.”

(TN: 南宫世 what do you guys think for that name? Later on they don’t always have the 世 character so I didn’t know if I should include it. 世 usually means world.)

 

Sounds from outside the main hall could be heard.

 

Someone was walking over.

 

The person had dark face, his eyes were sunken, his nose was high, his age was at least over forty, he walked with a seeming majesty, and seemed dignified. Behind him was the person who Xie Ao Yu had defeated, Chalice.

 

 

“His name is Greed, Chalice’s uncle, this time’s person in charge for the Pasa clan. His strength is comparable to my second’s.” Qin Yueyi seeing the person quietly explained to Xie Ao Yu. As she spoke, she also grabbed Xie Ao Yu’s hand.

(TN: Chalice’s uncle. 古利特. Greed? Gu Lite? Guilt?)

 

 

Xie Ao Yu immediately felt something staring at him.

 

There was no need to ask who it was, it was obviously Chalice. He couldn’t laugh in his heart. This was done on purpose by the little devil.

 

 

“Little devil.” Xie Ao Yu whispered.

 

Qin Yueyi bent her head as she looked at him.

 

“There’s a certain matter, I want you to me keep it a secret. You can’t tell anyone, even the people you’re closest to.” Xie Ao Yu said in a very serious tone.

 

“What is it?” Qin Yueyi hadn’t seen Xie Ao Yu have this sort of appearance very often, her face also stopped carrying the little devilish smile appearance.

 

It’s the Earth Escape Technique.” Xie Ao Yu looked at Qin Doug from the corner of his eyes, “This fighting skill is my insurance. If you leak this information, then when you and I separate, for someone trying to gain experience in the Heng Duan Mountain Range alone, I’m afraid that I’m going to meet with disaster.”

 

Qin Yueyi patted her chest, and promised: Don’t worry. I definitely won’t say anything. This is a secret between the two of us.”

 

Obtaining Qin Yueyi’s promise, Xie Ao Yu quietly let out a breath.

 

Qin Doug desired his Lightning Spirit Holy Sword. Once they separated, if a Sage Level practitioner made a move against him, there was no way he could fight back.

 

 

Thankfully there was the Earth Escape Technique.

 

This was his ace in the hole!

 

Seeing how Xie Ao Yu and Qin Yueyi were pretending to not see him and were talking secretively, Chalice’s heart was twitching. He secretly ground his teeth, clenched his fists, and quietly said, Adulterer, you just wait for this young master. Once you’ve fallen into the palm of this young master, see how this young master won’t be the death of you two.

 

“Haha, Greed, it seems like you already have some understanding of the Infinite Spinning Sword.” Qin Doug said with a big smile.

 

 

Greed smiled indifferently and said, “Not quite yet Brother Qin.”

 

“I only know that the Infinite Spinning Sword for the past thousand years has had amazing power in the hands of the Southern Palace clan, but nothing specific was known. I was currently preparing to look for people to investigate this, to find where the Infinite Spinning Sword came from.” Qin Doug let Greed and the others sit down.

 

“Brother Qin probably wants to know if they had discovered any other belongings of the Southern Palace family right?” Greed’s eyes narrowed, the corner of his lips curled up into a smile, “Us big families are all old acquaintances, Brother Qin why are you being so modest.”

 

 

Having his thoughts been seen through, Qin Doug didn’t have any sort of angry expression, just smiled indifferently. That sort of shrewdness made Xie Ao Yu secretly raise his guard.

 

This person was definitely a crafty old man.

 

“I’ve heard that other countries have also sent people to come to the auction. I think that we should work together, against the others, and think of a way to first obtain the Infinite Spinning Sword. What do you think?” Qin Doug said.

 

 

“Of course.” Greed nodded his head and said, “Does Brother Qin have a plan?”

 

Without waiting for Qin Doug to speak, Chalice began to say: “Two uncles, I feel like this is a secret between our two big clans. It wouldn’t be appropriate to have outsiders here and would not help towards obtaining the Infinite Spinning Sword at all.” As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Xie Ao Yu.

 

 

Qin Yueyi fiercely glared at Chalice.

 

“The Infinite Spinning Sword is a collection of countless sword skills combined into a peerless fighting technique. With this fighting technique, for any clan, if they obtain this they will all receive indescribable benefits. If a clan has this sword skill and distributes it to their family members, then many of the top-class techniques they already have can evolve with the Infinite Spinning Sword. For such an important item, how could an outsider be involved.” Chalice said logically and callously, then coldly said, “Besides, what qualifications does an ignorant lowly peasant like him have to sit with our clans. It would tarnish the air here.”  

 

 

Xie Ao Yu’s anger’s reached its limit in an instant.

 

And Chalice was smiling while looking at him, provoking him.

 

But Xie Ao Yu calmed down very quickly. He had just come out. Before when they had encountered Valencia’s Imperial Crown Mercenary Group’s small division, and had been forced to give the map, that was because there was a bigger opportunity later.

 

 

Then there was Qin Doug openly demanding the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword.

 

Now there was another run-in with Chalice. Since Chalice had reason his side, Xie Ao Yu could only be patient, because in this world, only strength was logic.

 

 

If you have the power, you can speak the logic!

 

Without power, you can only admit defeat.

 

The continual experiences made Xie Ao Yu desire for power even stronger. He secretly vowed that he would definitely become strong, and would definitely place these people beneath his foot!

 

But for now, he could only endure, coldly facing Chalice’s ridicule.

 

“Little devil, let’s leave. I’ve heard that in the Big Treasure Hunt Assembly, lots of people can find top-quality items.” Xie Ao Yu held down Qin Yueyi who has about to explode. He didn’t like having a female save his face.

 

 

Qin Yueyi fiercely glared at Chalice for a moment, then, without paying Greed any attention, turned and left.

 

 

“You uneducated trash. After seeing these two uncles, you’re just saying a word and leaving. Country bumpkin, peasant.” Chalice taunted.

 

Xie Ao Yu paused for a second, then left.

 

 

Seeing the two figures from behind, especially Qin Yueyi purposely hugging Xie Ao Yu’s arm, acting intimately, Chalice ground his teeth.

 

Greed’s lips were curled up into a smile as he looked at Qin Doug, “Brother Qin, that little brother doesn’t seem to be so simple.”

 

 

“That right. Able to stay calm at such a young age. That’s pretty rare even in our two big clans.” Qin Doug chuckled.

 

The already angry Chalice, hearing these two praise Xie Ao Yu, became even angrier. His eyes stared at the disappearing backs filled with poison. After a moment, he recovered, “Two uncles, this little nephew is a little tired, I plan on going back to rest.”

 

Qin Doug and Greed naturally didn’t say anything.

 

Chalice walked out quickly, catching up to Xie Ao Yu and Qin Yueyi after a distance. Then, with a faint smile on his face, he disappeared around a corner.

(TN: Don’t grow up to be like Chalice. And if you’re already grown up, examine yourself and make sure you’re not like Chalice.)
