Chapter 900: Fire Dragon God Mister Qin

“How did those Martial Emperors die? They got too greedy and wanted to refine the entire Sea Monarch Palace. In the end, the evil Demon’s main body tricked them and wiped them all out.”

The Five Poison Devil spoke in an indifferent tone, revealing information that several people were unaware of.

“There is such a thing?! I was wondering how Martial Emperors could die so easily. It turns out that they were just too ambitious.”

“Wanting to refine the entire Sea Monarch Palace, they were really bold. Unfortunately, they overestimated themselves. Even a Sovereign Martial Emperor would not be confident of refining it, yet they actually dared to try? Dying in there serves them right.”

When the uninvited loose cultivators heard this news, they all heaved sighs of relief. If this was the case, the evil Demon might not be as horrifying as they thought.

When the Five Poison Devil saw these people’s expressions, he smiled coldly to himself. However, he said, “I am not a person who would risk everything for treasure. Without being confident enough, I will not mess around. Later, just follow Mister Qin and me.”

The Mister Qin that the Five Poison Devil mentioned was a middle-aged-looking man in hemp robes.

After arriving, Mister Qin had closed his eyes and rested. Since he lacked a baleful aura, the surrounding people ignored him.

Hearing the Five Poison Devil mention this person, a few people quickly looked over. Only then did they discover that this gray-robed old man’s cultivation realm was actually no lower than the Five Poison Devil’s.

“Mister Qin? Could he be the Fire Dragon God Mister Qin from the Medicine God Valley?” someone asked uncertainly when he thought of something.

Nodding, the Five Poison Devil replied, “Precisely. Mister Qin has a very high position in the Medicine God Valley. He is one of the three grandmaster Alchemists there. With Mister Qin and me here, no matter how headstrong that girl is, she will still obediently let us in.”

Not far away, Qi Wuxue and Long Fei saw this, and their expressions turned unsightly.

Long Fei said, “This Five Poison Devil kills people with his Poison Arts without any warning. Several grandmaster-level Martial Sages are unwilling to deal with him.

“That Mister Qin is no kind soul, either. He has grasped nine different-attributed flames and created the Nine Dragon Arts. He is not just a simple Alchemist.”

As Qi Wuxue looked at the silent Mister Qin, he betrayed intense dread in his eyes.

“The people from the Penglai Sea are here!” someone exclaimed in the plaza right at this moment. Everyone looked over involuntarily.

The Penglai Sea was a very distant place. Not many outsiders knew how to enter it. The people there cultivated the legendary Immortal Arts and very rarely moved about in the outside world, which made people feel that they were very mysterious.

Two youths in Buddhist robes descended from above with proud expressions. They looked around, showing patent disdain for the people there.

“These two fellows seem to be uninvited as well.”

“Yeah! I wonder if Xiao Chen will change his mind after he arrives. These people are not people that can be offended.”

Suddenly, Long Fei said, “Xiao Chen is here!”

Qi Wuxue cast about but could not find that white figure. He asked anxiously, “Where is he? Where is he? How come I don’t see him?”

Long Fei pointed to a direction, and Qi Wuxue quickly looked over. Silently sitting cross-legged on a stone stool was someone wearing a black cloak.

The shadows of the hood hid the face of this figure, preventing people from seeing this figure’s countenance clearly. Qi Wuxue had to size him up several times before he managed to verify that it was Xiao Chen. He said, “What a fellow! Your eyes are really sharp. I did not notice. When did he arrive?”

This question stumped Long Fei. He realized that he did not know when Xiao Chen arrived. Earlier, he just caught a glimpse of Xiao Chen and even then nearly missed him.

Long Fei had to look back and observe carefully before vaguely suspecting that the cloaked figure was Xiao Chen.

“I’m not sure. Perhaps he just arrived, perhaps he arrived long ago. However, that does not matter. He could see whatever we saw. I can’t understand this, though. This fellow is always very surprising.” Long Fei fiddled with the folding fan in his hand.

Qi Wuxue withdrew his gaze and revealed a contemplative expression. He said with certainty, “I don’t believe that there can be such a foolish person who would do something against his own interests just for the sake of his identity as the Azure Emperor’s descendant.”

As they chatted, a sudden bustle stirred the crowd. Qi Wuxue’s and Long Fei’s eyes lit up. The host had arrived.

Princess Yao Yan mounted the platform in the plaza unhurriedly with Mu Yun, Mu Lei, and some Merfolk Race elders in tow.

Princess, the White Robed King does not seem to be here, Mu Yun said anxiously through a voice projection as he quickly swept a glance through the crowd.

“Don’t panic. He is here. Just directly convey my intent.”

Mu Yun calmed himself and took a step forward. He said, “Thank you, everyone, for accepting our invitation and traveling such a long distance to come here. Later, we will issue the jade pendants for entering the Sea Monarch Palace according to our invitation list.”

The Five Poison Devil glared at him and made a gesture. Someone immediately understood his signal. That person called out loudly, “Isn’t the Merfolk Race being too unreasonable? Although we did not receive an invitation, like the rest, we yearn to kill the evil Demon as well. Why won’t you hand out jade pendants to us?”

“This is too much. They are completely looking down on us. The Merfolk are bullies.”

“What a bunch of hotheaded people, directly disregarding others. Is the Merfolk Race really that heartless?”

“Damn, you Merfolk, it is best not to be too selfish. We came to help out of goodwill. Why the different treatment?”

“Hand over the jade pendants. If not, then everyone can forget about entering.”

Instantly, a large group of people created an uproar. Furthermore, these people were loose cultivators. Under such circumstances, their baleful auras were quite scary.

It felt like they really would attack at any moment, preventing both sides from proceeding.

Even though Mu Yun had expected this group of people not to take the rule lying down, he had not expected these old monsters to be so shameless and make such threats.

Mu Yun’s heart could not help but tremble at the baleful auras spreading out and all the ferocious old men; he had never seen such a scene before.

Yao Yan shook her head and personally stepped forward. She looked directly at the silent Five Poison Devil and Mister Qin. These two people were the real masterminds.

“The matters of the Merfolk Race have worried everyone. However, today, it is not that Yao Yan does not need everyone’s help. Rather, if you do not have a lightning-attributed flame or a Secret Treasure containing a lightning-attributed flame, you will only die if you enter.

“Not only will you be of no help, but you will even get consumed by the evil Demon clones, strengthening them, instead. If you can take out a King Grade Secret Treasure containing a lightning-attributed flame or have a lightning-attributed flame of equivalent rank, Yao Yan will definitely allow you in.”

When dealing with these old monsters who had lived for a century or two, Princess Yao Yan politely explained the details.

However, these old men refused to listen. King Grade Secret Treasures were rare in the first place, and those with lightning-attributed flames were even harder to find.

As for subduing a lightning-attributed flame, that was even more impossible. Others would subdue the naturally occurring flames of the world the moment one appeared; these flames were even harder to find than Secret Treasures.

If these old men had either of these two items, they would not be creating such a commotion.

“Hehe! Princess Yao Yan, there is no need for you to worry about our lives. You just have to tell us, will you or will you not allow us in?”

The Five Poison Devil had wiggled his lips a few times, and then a short old man about one hundred and sixty centimeters tall stood up on a stone stool and questioned Yao Yan rudely.

Many of the cultivators who received an invitation fixed their gaze on Yao Yan, wanting to see how she would deal with this challenge.

If Yao Yan could not deal with this problem, then her failure would verify the rumor that the Merfolk Race was severely weakened. In that case, when they entered the Sea Monarch Palace, they would not be able to do anything to stop these rampant loose cultivators.

Yao Yan felt furious in her heart. These old men were too excessive. They actually threatened her. Her expression turned cold, and she said, “In that case, I will tell you directly. Unless you received an invitation, I will not let you in.”

A strong wind blew and baleful auras spread out.

The short old man unleashed his Superior Grade Martial Sage aura without holding back. A cold wind instantly blew, carrying a repulsive shrieking.

“How laughable! Do you think that others do not know about the Merfolk Race’s situation?”

The short old man smiled coldly as killing Qi flared in his eyes. As he looked at Yao Yan, he said, “Little girl, I gave you face, but you refused it. I respected you by addressing you as Princess. If I do not give you any face, what would you be? You are just a smelly fish. Today, even if you do not want to let us in, you will have to.

“Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless. We will have a few dead fishes in this plaza, and we can have barbequed fish tonight.”

With the Five Poison Devil backing him, this short old man was eager to throw his weight around. He knew very clearly how strong he was. By helping the Five Poison Devil like this, he would, in turn, receive the Five Poison Devil’s care when they entered the Sea Monarch Palace, gaining a lot of benefits.

“What a bully! You really think there is no one left in our Merfolk Race?”

Seeing Yao Yan become so angry that she flushed red, Mu Yun could no longer endure it. He pushed off the ground and leaped up. Even Mu Lei, who was beside him, could not hold him back.

Yao Yan could not help but panic in her heart. It’s over. Mu Yun is simply not the other party’s opponent. Not only will he end up getting injured, but the reputation of the Merfolk Race will also be lost. He fell for their trick.

Just as expected, when the Medicine God Valley’s Mister Qin, whose eyes were closed all the while, sensed this scene, even he could not help but open his eyes. Then, a cold smile appeared on his face.

Don’t hold back. Teach him a heavy lesson. Otherwise, this group of Merfolk will not understand the situation here, the Five Poison Devil said through a voice projection.

When the short old man received that instruction, he revealed a cruel smile on his wrinkle-filled face. The Heavenly Sage Laws in his body surged, and his aura intensified. His baleful aura rushed out and unexpectedly formed a scarlet cloud in the air.

There was a loud ‘bang,’ and Mu Yun, who was flying over, received a palm strike from the short old man, which knocked him to the ground. He could not get up as he vomited blood.

The short old man laughed loudly and said, “You are just some nobody, and yet you dare behave as you wish? Do you really think yourself to be some powerful person?”

The expressions of Princess Yao Yan and her retinue all sank. Many of the invited cultivators shook their heads as well.

However, right after the short old man spoke, the crisp sound of a saber hum rang out behind him like an absolute saber being unsheathed. An unparalleled sharp saber intent flew over along with a frigid wind.

“Oh no!”

A sense of imminent danger bloomed in the short old man’s heart. He immediately abandoned the momentum he built up and pushed off the stone stool, wanting to leave this place without delay.
