King of Assassins-Chapter 710 - 530: Wholeheartedly Serving the Public

Chapter 710

Once the internal space of the Nine Provinces Cauldron opened, Gao Xuan discovered where Qin Shiyue truly was.
This time he first put away the Thundering Iron Horse. Qin Shiyue is not Qin Fei; you can't just play around with him while riding on horseback.
With a flick of his sleeve, Gao Xuan appeared the next moment on Qin Shiyue's yacht.
The many beauties on the yacht saw Gao Xuan descend and were all staring at him dumbfounded.
They accompany Qin Shiyue here, not seeing outsiders all year round. Not to mention that Gao Xuan is exceptionally handsome, with a demeanor full of endless charm.
These beauties could go online, so they recognized Gao Xuan. But feeling Gao Xuan's charm up close, they were indeed captivated.
Gao Xuan waved gracefully to the numerous beauties: "Hello everyone, my name is Gao Xuan."
Qin Shiyue said irritably: "Stop showing off. You're even flirting with my women!"
He told the group of beauties: "Go back to your rooms."
Although unwilling, the beauties knew Qin Shiyue's prowess and hesitantly went into the cabin.
Gao Xuan sat down on the chair next to Qin Shiyue. He glanced around and said: "Sunshine, yacht, beauties, what a leisurely life you lead."
Qin Shiyue glanced at Gao Xuan: "I'm not enjoying life; I'm guarding humanity."
He asked Gao Xuan back: "Do you know why I didn't step in to help Qin Fei just now?"
"I don't know."
Gao Xuan was a bit curious too: "So why didn't you help Qin Fei?"
Qin Shiyue thought for a moment and said: "First, the Sword Artifact in your hand is too strong. Second, I feared the Nine Provinces Cauldron might be shattered by you."
"In other words, you had no confidence."
Gao Xuan said with a smile: "Old man, I see you're wise. As long as you submit to me, we could be as close as family."
He assured again: "My character and tolerance are evident here, and I disdain to explain to the ignorant. Old man, you're wise; you should know I'm not after power or money."
Qin Shiyue shook his head: "I can't even figure out what kind of person I am, so how can I know what you want. Don't pull that 'testing heroes over wine' trick on me."
"Hahaha..."
Gao Xuan laughed heartily: "Among the world's heroes, only I stand alone. The rest are insignificant, hardly worth mentioning."
Qin Shiyue cooly responded: "You really are unabashed!"
Gao Xuan added: "Although you fall short of me, you surpass common mortals significantly; you'd be considered an outstanding talent."
Qin Shiyue genuinely laughed this time, realizing that Gao Xuan was trying to make him understand the times. This young man of twenty truly had some audacity, actually thinking of subduing him.
However, merely from Gao Xuan defeating Qin Fei with one sword, he did indeed have that qualification.
Qin Shiyue wasn't lying; he truly wished to help Qin Fei. But the moment Gao Xuan unsheathed his sword, Qin Shiyue knew something was off.
The Hongyi Sword in Gao Xuan's hand was exceptionally powerful, carrying high-tier Law Power. The Nine Provinces Cauldron might not suppress Gao Xuan.
If the Nine Provinces Cauldron were shattered by Gao Xuan's sword, it would spell disaster.
The entrance to the Netherworld relies entirely on the Nine Provinces Cauldron for sealing, severing travel between the two realms. Despite this, fish often escaped and crossed over from the Netherworld Realm.
Qin Shiyue must remain stationed here, guarding the portal firmly.
If the Nine Provinces Cauldron were broken, opening the Netherworld's entrance, it could never again be sealed.
It would be like a flood barrier; once breached, it could never be restored.
Qin Shiyue had no choice but to abandon Qin Fei.
Fortunately, Gao Xuan did not kill Qin Fei. Precisely because of this, Qin Shiyue was willing to have a good talk with Gao Xuan.
Qin Shiyue said: "The Nine Provinces Cauldron suppresses the entrance to the Otherworld. Once the Nine Provinces Cauldron collapses, the entire Federation would face annihilation."
He solemnly told Gao Xuan: "Your divine techniques are now invincible; no one can stop what you want to do. I have only one request: do not create chaos in the Qin Family."
Gao Xuan did not answer directly, but was very interested in looking at the fishing rod, and asked: "Is the entrance to the Otherworld beneath the sea?"
"That's correct."
Qin Shiyue nodded heavily, "To seal this entrance, three Saints went and never returned. Only by suppressing it with the Nine Provinces Cauldron was the travel between the two realms cut off."
"What kind of world is on the other side?" Gao Xuan asked with curiosity.
"The other side is called the Netherworld Realm, filled with countless demons and monsters."
Qin Shiyue shook his head and said: "I've never gone in. But there's often the occasional fish slipping through. The demons and monsters of the Netherworld Realm are extremely terrifying; there might be some powerful Demon Gods inside."
He emphasized: "Once the two realms connect and a Demon God's true form enters the Alliance, our Human Race will be completely annihilated."
Gao Xuan countered: "But you've never gone in; how would you know?"
Qin Shiyue bristled with displeasure: "How could such a matter be joked about? The three Saints entered once in the early days, leaving some records about the Netherworld Realm."
He said in a low voice: "If the Netherworld Realm weren't dangerous, why else would the three Saints sacrifice themselves to seal the entrance? They weren't tired of living!"
"Are the three Saints so noble?" Gao Xuan was somewhat skeptical.
This one sentence truly infuriated Qin Shiyue. He stood up in a burst of color: "How could you understand the magnanimity and boldness of a Saint?"
Qin Shiyue grew increasingly angrier, "The Golden Family's heritage spans three thousand years; descendants unworthy is due to their degeneracy and decay. The Twelve Saints founded the Alliance; each was a hero with the world in their heart!"
"Don't get excited. I also respect the Twelve Saints."
Gao Xuan said slowly: "I was just asking because I didn't know, and you could just explain."
Qin Shiyue took a deep breath, knowing that anger was useless; provoking Gao Xuan would be disadvantageous to him, and even worse for the Qin Family. It would be of no benefit to humanity as a whole.
He suppressed the surging anger within and forced himself to calm down, "There are noble Saints in this world, and there are also despicable villains. The Twelve Saints established the Alliance, bringing about today's prosperity of the Human Race."
