Chapter 222 Chapter 222: Delicious
"You talk as if I should know what that is. You'll have to be more clear about that book. What's it capable of? And how dangerous is it for me?"
"It's not particularly dangerous for you. It's a growth type book, unlike the other books. All it does is help the person become stronger, faster than others by indulging in Depravity," Xin answered.
"By indulging in Depravity, you mean...? No wonder he keeps a woman with her." Xu Shan understood quite a lot of things from Xin's description. However, he still had a lot of questions. "Why would his fate be so much higher than the others in that case? It can't be just because of the book like I thought before."
"It's most probably because of the woman who's with him," Xin thought of a possibility. "I'm not sure what her identity is, but she's most probably the reason behind his fate. Either that, or he has another treasure that's even more important than the book."
"How Peculiar..." Xu Shan disappeared, appearing back on the roof from where he could keep an eye on the entire town. "Looks like I'll have to wait and see him put all his cards on the line. Good thing we have some nice toys coming."
Xu Shan lazily rested on the roof, looking at the clouded sky. There were so many things about Yan Xu that he was curious about. He wanted to see every secret that the young man was hiding, but he didn't want to risk anything without knowing everything about him.
He didn't want to lose the treasure in case it was connected to Yan Xu's life, all because of his haste.

For the next few days, Xu Shan simply watched the Martial Alliance prepare for the incoming battle. The equation on the battlefield had changed after all.
The competition between the four clans was stopped since one of the heirs had been hurt. Instead, the people in command were furious about it and had commanded their people to stop playing around and annihilate everything.
Amongst the people who landed, he even noticed the Alchemy Sect Head who was now the Martial Alliance Leader. He had come with the girl that Xu Shan had saved from the divine realm.
"That old man..." Xin looked at the Martial Clan head, rolling her eyes. "He made you save her, only to bring that girl to her inevitable death. What a waste."
"If they were to lose, I suppose the outcome wouldn't have changed even if she had stayed behind. Moreover, in any case, she's quite strong thanks to how much the Upper realm invested in her."
Xu Shan closed his eyes, feeling the nice weather. He told Xin to wake him up if there was anything of interest, before falling asleep.

The Martial Alliance Leaders met up with Yan Xu, treating him as best as possible. However, during the meeting, Yan Xu's eyes repeatedly went to the girl next to the Martial Alliance Leader.
The book in his inner pocket kept trembling, as if trying to tell him something.
Seeing the girl, Yan Xu revealed a smile. "What a great find. Go think that there would be a physique that even the Book of Depravity will be excited about."
"You're truly lucky. That girl has a perfect physique for you to become stronger. She also has a good cultivation. It's like someone had specially cultivated her for this. But now it'll benefit you."
Although Lin Mei was slightly jealous that Yan Xu was looking at the girl with greed, she wasn't selfish and knew that it was only for Yan Xu's benefits.
No matter what a good physique the girl had, once Yan Xu slept with her, it would become useless. Unlike her, Lin Mei was different and fated to be when Yan Xu. She also had a bigger background that was about to shock everyone here if disclosed.
"I would give it my all," Yan Xu told the Martial Alliance Leader, multiple meanings hidden underneath those words that the old man couldn't understand.
