Chapter 149 - 149 You're So Perverted

149 You’re So Perverted

The conversation between Feng Xia and the Xuanwu Emperor lasted for three days and three nights.

Of course, the venue where they had the conversation was not inside the Thousand Autumn Valley. Although Feng Xia was inclined to put aside his grudges for the time being, inviting such a big archenemy into the sect was too provocative.

In the end, they fixed the location in Qing Lin’s territory at the foot of North Gazing Cliff.

However, the corresponding price to pay was that the Xuanwu Emperor got kneeled by Qing Lin a few times, just like what happened to Yinghua Yu.

On one hand, Feng Xia had indeed developed an unprecedented interest in the information that Mo Lianque had told him. On the other hand, he also wanted to observe this emperor further so as to confirm his true intentions.

After all, he had heard a good saying before he transmigrated.

—Through a computer screen, you could not even tell if you were talking to a dog.

Ever since he came to the alternate world, Feng Xia realized that this sentence could still be expanded further. Even if it was really a dog, it might be a Primal Core Realm cultivator. It could slap you to the ground and let you know what bad luck was.

No matter how Feng Xia looked at it, he felt that the Xuanwu Emperor was too overly confident.

It even seemed to have reached quite an unreasonable extent.

Feng Xia really could not understand—you could not even defeat many demon beast lords. Where did you get such confidence from?

However, many things that Mo Lianque mentioned did manage to solve some of Feng Xia’s doubts.

For example, the truth behind the disappearance of the spiritual energy of the world!

“If an expert set up a Heaven and Earth Array and plundered all the spiritual energy of the world, it can indeed explain many issues. After all, under normal circumstances, the spiritual energy would ebb and flow like the tide. It’s impossible for such a shocking decline to happen.”

“However, if all of this is really caused by a person…”

Feng Xia could not help but mutter, “Then have you considered that the instigator would likely have a terrifying cultivation level? Perhaps even if we tie the Xuanwu Kingdom and the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons together, it will not be enough to give the mastermind a tight slap.”

The Xuanwu Emperor nodded his head and said in a deep voice, “The mastermind behind the scenes is naturally very powerful. However, after the arduous explorations undertaken by generations of emperors in the Xuanwu Kingdom, we have basically confirmed that the mastermind has already died, and the array formation is only maintaining its operation at a minimal level! Otherwise, this world would have long become a dead place, and it would not be like now, where we still have the space to survive and cultivate!”

The Xuanwu Emperor’s reply answered Feng Xia’s other question.

In the more than 700 years since the founding of the country, other than the fact that there were many wars at the beginning, there were much fewer wars in the subsequent years. The possibility of the latter emperors dying in battle was extremely low. However, in the past 700 years, there were at least more than 10 emperors!

Then what did these emperors do? They could not have all abdicated and given up their positions, right?

—From the looks of it, they might have been exploring the secret of the exhaustion of the spiritual energy of the world!

“It’s not easy.”

After knowing this answer, Feng Xia remained silent for a long time. In the end, he said a few words slowly.

Seeing the complicated expression on Feng Xia’s face, Xuanwu Emperor Mo Lianque laughed instead, “Sect Master Wu…”

Feng Xia sighed and corrected him, “It’s Sect Master Feng.”

Mo Lianque: “…”

Alright, alright. Whatever you all say.

“Sect Master Feng, you don’t have to worry about answering to the Thousand Autumn Valley. I know very well what I’ve done. The hatred won’t disappear easily. Therefore, I don’t expect to bury the hatchet anytime soon.”

In fact, in his opinion, if Lei Shao and the rest could really bury the hatchet so easily, it would indicate that their feelings for the old Sword King… were only so-so in the end!

“I only need some time. When this matter is over, if you still want to kill me, you can still take action again.”

“At that time, I’ll use your head as a sacrificial offering for Senior Ji and the souls of the Thousand Autumn Valley heroes.”

As Feng Xia’s words left his mouth, there was a strange expression on Mo Lianque’s face. “All this time, it has always been me saying that I want someone’s head. Now that I’ve been threatened with beheading… this is quite a novel experience.”

Feng Xia was silent for a moment before he suddenly raised his hand and patted the emperor’s shoulder as he spoke earnestly.

“You’re so perverted.”

“…?”

The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

Ancient divine palace ruins.

Even though a long time had passed, one could still see the former glory of this divine palace. There was the sound of spring water flowing in the palace, emitting milky white spiritual energy. There were also many strange flowers and plants that grew wantonly and complemented one another. It was like an otherworldly paradise.

In the deepest part of the ruins, the shadow of a figure lay dormant.

This figure seemed to be sleeping, but it also seemed to be cultivating. With every breath, it would attract the surrounding spiritual energy of the world and gather it from all directions, forming a huge vortex in the sky.

This was a demon bird covered in golden feathers. Every feather on its body seemed to be cast from gold, reflecting an icy cold light under the sunlight.

In the distance, the little demons that had submitted to this demon king moved around without stopping for even a moment.

“The lord demon king’s aura is getting stronger and stronger…”

“In the past, I could still get within 1,000 feet of the lord. Now, I can’t even get within 2,000 feet!”

“In my opinion, although the lord has been sound asleep, his aura is constantly becoming stronger. Perhaps he is only a step away from the realm the Ruler is in.”

Most of these small demons were demon birds. From time to time, they would whisper to one another. When they looked in the direction of the huge golden bird, their eyes were filled with reverence and submission.

Their thoughts were very simple. Once their lord demon king had a breakthrough, it was time for another demon to become the ruler of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons!

“By then, do you think the lord will confer titles on us and make us demon beast lords? I’ve been to the Demon Capital before and I’ve seen that Ruler from afar. He’s so imposing, mighty and majestic that I can’t help but feel my heart flutter…”

“Pfft! You want to be a demon beast lord with such an appearance? Aren’t you afraid of embarrassing the lord?!”

As they chatted, a terrifying aura suddenly awakened in the depths of the palace. In an instant, it rose to its limit. With a loud bang, it stirred up a terrifying storm.

“Great, the lord demon king has awakened!”

“The lord demon king’s aura is so terrifying to this extent! I feel like I can’t even breathe!”

“Idiot! That’s not how you use the phrase ‘terrifying to this extent’!” A demon bird slapped its companion’s head. “Listen carefully. As expected of the lord demon king, the power of the lord is already terrifying to this extent! Even the way he vomits blood…”

Halfway through its sentence, the demon bird suddenly revealed a horrified expression and shouted out.

“Demon beasts! The lord demon king is vomiting blood!”
