Chapter 592

Ocean Fiend King – Yujiang

“My name is Gui Dingtian, you brat!”

“What are you doing here?” questioned Elder Deer, stern.

“You know each other?” the white ape fiend king drawled.

The white ape fiend king brought the two elders over to Third Heaven because they were fountains of knowledge.

“We barred him from entering Fiend Island at Second Heaven to return to Third Heaven,” respectfully explained Elder Deer.

“Oi, are you and those Ghost Gate pests trying to invade our Sacred Island?” asked the fiend king.

“Isn’t it called Ghost Island?”

“Don’t go naming our island with ridiculous names. Sacred Island is our race’s island!” brayed the fiend king.

Mu Yu dragged a chair out to sit on; however, Elder Tortoise aggressed, “Where do you get off sitting down to speak to our ancestor?”

“I saved his sorry behind! If it wasn’t for me, Ghost Gate would be hanging him as a trophy right now!”

Elder Tortoise slammed the table. “Watch your uncouth tongue!”

“Enough. Every angle I look at him at annoys me, but he has a point,” asserted the fiend king, admitting to the two uninformed elders that Mu Yu did rescue him.

Mu Yu clapped for attention. “Ghost Gate is trying to invade your island? Why have you abandoned the island until now if it’s yours?”

“Bec-” – The white ape fiend king’s face burnt – “It’s none of your business!”

Recalling Elder Chi Long mentioned Ghost Island was where humans and fiends once fought a war against each other, Mu Yu queried, “Oh, I get it now. You don’t know a lick about it, either, do you?”

Qiao Xue explained, “Sacred Island is within the territory of Ocean King Yujiang, one of our fiend kings. Because his territory sits on the waters, we need special directions to locate it and to travel by boat. It is impossible to spot it from the sky. When fiend kings need to connect, they need a middle man. Due to the attacks on our race millenniums ago, we no longer have middle men.”

Ironically, the king of the desert had “ocean” in his name, while the king of the ocean had “land” in his name.

“Can’t you put in an inquiry with a fiend beast in the ocean?” Mu Yu questioned.

“We’ve obviously tried. They’re too stupid to know the way, though. Those who do know the way are deep down in the ocean, so it’s not easy to contact them,” fumed the fiend king.

“How much do you know about Ghost Gate’s plans?” Mu Yu asked.

“How much do you know? You know how to reach Ol’ Sixth’s island?” the fiend king asked back.

“If you refuse to speak, I will reject you as my son-in-law!”

The fiends’ knees buckled.

“You make it sound as if I’d even want to be your son-in-law.”

The fiend king looked over his shoulder and said, “Qiao Xue, since your lover is heartless and I can’t stand him, how about I just pop his head off?”

“Th-that’s not what I meant, Qiao Xue. What I want was, even if we’re together, Old Furry here has no business butting in.”

“Does that mean you want to marry me?” Qiao Xue asked, lowering her red face.

“N-no. What I meant w-”

“You don’t want to marry Qiao Xue? Got it. Sounds like it has dawned on you that you’re not worthy of being my son-in-law.”

“Shut your big mouth, you egotistical fur ball. Why do you assume everyone is dying to be your son-in-law?”

“Don’t impose on him, Grandpa Ape. We are not in a relationship. He can’t speak if you keep imposing on him,” stated Qiao Xue.

“Either you kill me or let go. Don’t grab my clothes as if it’s normal every time.”

The fiend king let ago and queried again, “Where is Hai Dongqing.”

“You want to find Yujiang or Hai Dongqing? Make up your mind.”

“Both of them.”

Deciding to use his knowledge as a means of blackmail in case the fiends wanted to kill him and borrow the fiend king’s power to combat Ghost Gate’s group, Mu Yu asserted, “Once I find Yujiang, I’ll show you where Hai Dongqing is.”

“I’ll believe you for now. If you try anything funny, you’re never being my son-in-law.”

“We’re back to that again?!”
