Chapter 954: Leading the Snakes to Their Nest



According to Emperor Carpus, the Black Serpent Clan's home was situated in a large system of interconnected caves underneath the deathly ocean floor. The only entrance leading into it was a large X-shaped crevasse.

The radioactive water zone was a natural barrier that prevented trifling marine life from wandering into the Black Serpent Clan's home.

As Vaan scanned the ocean floor for the X-shaped crevasse, he ran into a patrolling black serpent that was minding its own business.

However, when it spotted Vaan, it was dumbfounded and froze in confusion.

(What's a human doing in this region of water? Doesn't he know humans are prohibited from exploring this area?)

While the black serpent was wondering this, Vaan also studied it.

Although the black serpent was also a mutated species that grew several hundred meters big, it only possessed ordinary serpent scales and lacked a golden horn.

Evidently, it did not possess the Golden Dragon Bloodline-or at the very least, it didn't have enough pure Golden Dragon Blood to cause changes to its body.

The black serpent was only a Late-stage Transcendent life form.

As such, it was also easy for it to fall under the influence of Vaan's Boundless Sea and Sky Aura. He quickly made his way over to it.

(Hm? This human even dares to approach this Noble One without any fear or respect? How bold! It seems this human lacks education and requires a lesson!)

The black mutant serpent glared at Vaan with an attitude.

However, as Vaan got closer, its tough look disappeared, replaced by confusion. It didn't know why, but it suddenly didn't have the heart to be hostile to him.

A few more moments passed, and the black mutant serpent's heart shook in horror after it sensed the terrible energy and divine aura contained within Vaan's puny body. It had never encountered such physical density.

With a casual smack from Vaan, it would definitely become meat paste on the ocean floor! "I have a question for you. Can you understand me?"

The black mutant serpent couldn't help but look at Vaan in astonishment since the Celestial Kingdom was only ever known to the creatures of the sea.

Land-dwellers were mostly ignorant of its existence.

Nevertheless, the black mutant serpent quickly remembered it was supposed to answer all of Vaan's questions, so it didn't wait for his reply.

(This Lowly One wouldn't say the Black Serpent Clan has a connection to the Celestial Kingdom, Your Excellency. If there were one, it would just be the same as any other sea clans; we are just vassals or slaves, while the Celestial Kingdom is the true ruler of the Boundless Sea.)

"Oh? The Celestial Kingdom has such great influence over all the marine life in the Boundless Sea? How did it achieve such that?" Vaan asked with interest.

Given the Celestial Kingdom's advanced civilization, it might not be difficult for it to study and learn how to communicate with the various marine life in the Boundless Sea. However, was the Celestial Kingdom's knowledge and power so great that it could even control the non-sentient species that only knew how to act on its most primal instincts?

(The Celestial Kingdom's dominance over the Boundless Sea is all due to the Ocean Master, Your Excellency. The Ocean Master is the most absolute being in this world. No one can violate

his will.)

When the black mutant serpent mentioned the Ocean Master, its gaze was filled with both fear and awe. It was the same kind of gaze one would find in a blind worshipper.

Vaan took note of it.

Nevertheless, as the black mutant serpent happily led Vaan to its Black Serpent Clan's home, their group of two slowly increased as they ran into other black mutant serpents on the way. The black mutant serpents all showed the same look of hostility when they saw Vaan. However, their attitudes quickly changed all the same when they got close to him. It was like they had all seen the light or had their souls purified after coming into contact with his unique

aura; they all acted like goody-two-shoes.

(Your Excellency, Can we also follow you?)

(Where do you come from, Your Excellency? How do you understand us so well?)

(Hm? But that's weird... How come we can also understand His Excellency's language? When

did we learn about the human language?)

(Kekeke, it must be our spiritual wisdom awakening...!)
