Realms In The Firmament

Chapter 1525: Xiao Monarch; Great Undertaking of Lasting Importance!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Monarch’s Hall was getting more and more powerful because of the expansion of territory, and also because of one other reason.

The Hall of Life and Death had continually taken care of many more dying cultivators in about half a month. Sometimes, he had to deal with over twenty people in one day. At least three people came for his help in a day.

Over one hundred people decided to join the Monarch’s Hall, including the patients and their relatives.

The Monarch’s Hall had over six hundred men now. These people were at least at the Divinity Origin Stage in cultivation.

Dozens of Meng Youjiang’s capable subordinates had come to join the Monarch’s Hall, and the Monarch’s Hall became even stronger.

On the fourth day of the Hall of Life and Death, Master Guan brought a lot of people that he introduced to Ye Xiao. Those were over three thousand men!

Ye Xiao was shocked when he saw them.

‘The first group of people?’

‘Isn’t it too many?’

‘Everyone seems to be capable. There are a few hundreds of Divinity Origin Stage cultivators among the three thousand... These men should join the Department of Battle...’

Because of the two reasons, Monarch’s Hall became a huge organization in the City of Chaos within a few days. It used to be a small sect, but now it was a beast!

The Monarch’s Hall was domineeringly powerful because all the cultivators were over the Divinity Origin Stage!

There were over fifteen hundred Divinity Origin Stage cultivators, and a top-class sect wouldn’t have more than fifteen hundred Divinity Origin Stage cultivators!

Those men that Master Guan introduced to Ye Xiao were making some horrible influence.

There were nine middle-aged men who were strongly recommended by Master Guan. These nine people made a department that was called the Department of Perfect Distribution.

In fact, Ye Xiao had never heard of the Department of Distribution ever. However, when he realized how this department worked, he was amazed!

The Department of Perfect Distribution assigned different jobs to different people. They worked perfectly on giving everybody the best chance to work their best and giving play to everybody’s talent!

The itinerant cultivators came to the Monarch’s Hall; some alone, some with their brothers, and some with their families. As they became members of the Monarch’s Hall, they were all rearranged.

The Department of Perfect Distribution was the department in charge of the rearrangement. When the nine people made some arrangements to split people away from their friends, Ye Xiao was worried. He thought that the cultivators had gotten well along with their own friends and families, so there was no need to set them apart. He didn’t want to spend more time for the new groups to know each other and get along with each other again. In fact, the outcome of the Department of Perfect Distribution’s work proved Ye Xiao wrong. Everybody was happy about their assignment.

People had the same thought, ‘This is exactly where I belong!’

Some were surprised. ‘Why didn’t I realize that I could do so well on this.’ Before the rearrangement, these people could only do one-third of their best in their jobs!

The arrangement brought a huge improvement to the organization.

“Prime Leader, I think we should work on the appellation now since the Monarch’s Hall has been established and already have our goal and slogan. We descend to the Limitless Ocean; We conquer the Human Realm Upon Heavens...”

It was another old man who was talking to Ye Xiao.

The old man was so old that it seemed he would suffocate to death if he kept talking for a long time.

The old man’s name was Ju, who was Master Guan’s old friend, the chief of the Ju Clan in the City of Chaos.

Ye Xiao liked his name so much–Ju Jincui!

It meant working with utter devotion.

However, when Ye Xiao looked at the old man, he was worried. ‘This old man may just die before we really get to do something great...’

That was not a joke. He really thought it was possible!

Ye Xiao held the old man’s hand and let him sit. “Old master, how do we change the appellation? Why should we? How do we do it?”

“First thing.” Master Ju was satisfied with Ye Xiao’s caring. He showed a big smile on his face, sat on the seat, pointed up one finger, and said, “I think, Prime Leader is not strong enough. It is weak.”

“Well... What should we do?” Ye Xiao asked.

“I think we should make it as simple as we can! Monarch! Simple but strong! Right into the heart!” Master Ju took a breath and said,

“Monarch!”

Ye Xiao’s eyes lit up.

‘Monarch!’

‘I was a monarch in the Qing-Yun Realm...’

He thought for a while, giving a second thought about the title.

Master Ju stared at his face and said in a low voice, “The Monarch conquers the world! This is the Monarch’s Hall! The owner of the Monarch’s Hall is not just a prime leader, but a monarch!”

“It is not just the monarch in the Limitless Ocean, but also the monarch in the Human Realm Upon Heavens!”

When the old man said, ‘the monarch in the Human Realm Upon Heavens’—he was excited. The warm blood was running up to his head, and he nearly lost control of his raging energy!

It was an impulse that had stayed silent for a long time but had started to rise!

It could be hidden in one’s heart, but it wouldn’t disappear. When the time was right, it would rise again!

“The Monarch... It is accepted!” Ye Xiao thought for a while and then nodded.

“The Monarch is an appellation, but you need a name to go with it.” Master Ju took a breath and said, “I think we should just choose one of your names. It must be a brilliant name.”

Ye Xiao was shocked. He had a strange feeling. He said, “What is it?”

“Xiao! Let’s use Xiao! It sounds perfect with the Monarch!”

Master Ju took a deep breath and said, “Xiao Monarch!”

The Xiao Monarch!

Ye Xiao felt that his blood was boiling in the veins. He took a deep breath to stay calm.

The Xiao Monarch!

It had been quite a long time!

“The Monarch conquers the world and controls the universe! The Xiao Monarch will laugh upon the world and hold the world in arms. The Xiao Monarch smiles to the world; to the people, to the chaos, to the failure, to the success, to the time and to the future! The Xiao Monarch is exclusive!”

Master Ju said with his eyes glittering, “The Xiao Monarch looked upon all heroes in the world with a laugh!”

Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said, “Let’s do it then!”

Master Ju’s eyes lit up.

‘The man is truly confident. He actually accepts my suggestion. He must have the same thoughts for some time!’

“So... Is it your final decision about the appellation?” Master Ju was still spirited.

Ye Xiao was a little confused though. ‘It is just changing an appellation, isn’t it? Why are you so excited? Do you have to? Really?’

However, he had no idea how thrilled Master Ju was.

In the Human Realm Upon Heavens, not many people could become a real monarch!

Even the Great Master Ye was just immensely close to being a monarch!

Most of the capable men in history chose to follow a monarch and not to become one! When a man chose to follow a monarch, he started a gamble!

If he won, he became famous!

If he lost, he got nothing!

The descendant of the great Ye Clan should never be content with such a position! A descendant of the great Ye Clan should reach the top of the sky with ambition!

That was why people would follow a monarch. The Ju Clan, Guan Clan, and Song Clan were three clans of the seven clans that were loyal to Ye Hongchen!

The Seven Golden Lotuses!

That was it.

If Ye Xiao didn’t show his ambition, Master Ju might not decide to follow him!

Master Ju saw the descendant of his old master actually had both ambition and capability to reach greatness...

He truly felt comforted about it.

“The decision is made. Now we are done with the first thing. What about the second?” Ye Xiao asked.

“The second thing is the problem of our organizational structure.” Master Ju said, “Having all those departments and units is not enough.”

Ye Xiao was surprised. “Oh? Really? Is this a problem too?”

“Of course, it is. It concerns the fame of the organization, and it may lead to a great loss in the future.”

Master Ju felt pretty good at the moment, so he talked quite smoothly. “For example, the House of Chaotic Storms had shown up for three years. However, it was almost as powerful and famous as the Brotherhood Alliance. It was even getting close to the Hall of Returning Nature. When people heard the name of Master Bai of the House of Chaotic Storms, a song always rings up in their heads.”

“A song? What song? Is it really that powerful?”

“Wan of the Clouds on the left, Xiu of the Heavens on the right. They waved their hand and summoned the wind; they stretched their arms and controlled heaven and earth!

“Wan and Xiu are the two maids of Master Bai. Master Bai trusts the two ladies the most. Other than the two ladies; there was One Apex, Two Kills, Three Lunatics. These six men were the most important people who helped the House of Chaotic Storms to reach the top of the world in such a short time!”

“When people mentioned Master Bai, they always thought of Wan of the Clouds and Xiu of the Heavens; the One Apex, Two Kills, Three Lunatics! These people were famous in the Limitless Ocean, even in the Human Realm Upon Heavens.”

Master Ju took a breath and said, “The Hall of Returning Nature is another example. In the Hall of Returning Nature; there are One Dragon, Two Tigers, Three Phoenixes, Four Warriors, Eight Stars! They ruled the world.”

“The One Dragon, the Two Tigers, and the Three Phoenixes are the six special cultivators in the Hall of Returning Nature, who were powerful and always guarding the headquarters of the Hall of Returning Nature. If these people showed themselves outside the Hall of Returning Nature, the martial world must be in trouble. The Four Warriors and Eight Stars were all top-level superiors who guards different places.”

“The Brotherhood Alliance are a bunch of itinerant cultivators. They don’t have those high-key; high-sounding titles, but they have similar things. The ten brothers of the Brotherhood Alliance were the ten prime leaders of the organization. They also look down upon everybody else, who are just a bunch of arrogant men.”

Master Ju said, “The Monarch’s Hall only has the names for the departments. That is not enough. We are losing it.”

“In an organization, we need not only the prime leader but also some other heroes to be the poles of the organization!”

“As long as we can make some good names for the high-level leaders in the organization, the fame of the Monarch’s Hall will grow. The title of our men will sound in the sky of the world. The name of Monarch’s Hall will be marked deeply in everybody’s heart.”

“The Monarch’s Hall is no longer just a team of several men. Not everybody who comes to the Monarch’s Hall has the opportunity to see the Xiao Monarch.” Master Ju said, “Well, some other people must go out and greet our guests. If a famous cultivator greets the guests in the name of the Monarch’s Hall, the Monarch’s Hall becomes great!”

“The more powerful figures we have, the more famous we are and the more attractive we will be. Powerful cultivators will keep coming to join us.”

“That is what supports us to the great undertaking of lasting importance.” Master Ju smiled.

Ye Xiao’s eyes lit up and he took a deep breath. He sighed and said, “Old Master, you are right. I can’t agree more. We do need more soul figures for the organization, and we will have them... The problem is... we do not have enough people.”

Master Ju frowned and said, “Don’t we? How do you come up with such a conclusion?”

Ye Xiao bitterly smiled and said, “Please think deeper about it, master. The Wan of the Clouds, and the Xiu of the Heavens; and the One Apex, Two Kills, Three Lunatics, or the One Dragon, Two Tigers, Three Phoenixes, Four Warriors, and Eight Stars of the Hall of the Returning Nature, or the ten brothers of the Brotherhood Alliance... What cultivation level are they at?”

“Any one of them is beyond level five of the Saint Origin Stage!”

Ye Xiao bitterly smiled and said, “Look at us. The three Saint Origin Stage cultivators are our best. Bu Xiangfeng is the best, but technically he is not one of us... If we give them those titles and push them to the public, it is pushing them to death, not to bring them glorious fame...”

“Whenever there is a fight against us, people will come to them.”

“I don’t care if we will be disgraced. I just don’t want my men to die!” Ye Xiao bitterly smiled and said, “We don’t have enough powerful cultivators!”

“At least we don’t have enough now. We are not powerful enough to go through the tasks.”

Ye Xiao stared at Master Ju and said, “I am helpless. We all are. We are weak. We can’t compare Master Bai or any of those people.”

Master Bai was a powerful cultivator; and behind him, it was a sky king who supported him. No matter how many people Ye Xiao could use and how smart he was, he wouldn’t dare to compare himself with Master Bai right now!

Master Ju opened his mouth and tried to say something but didn’t say a word.

‘The kid doesn’t know yet...’

‘The people we brought to him... there are more than one hundred who are beyond level five of the Saint Origin Stage... He didn’t know yet...’
