Chapter 279: Unable to Refuse
Aomo seemed to vent his anger by crushing Miao Feng's body into a pulp. Miao Feng endured great pain before his death, and even in death, his soul couldn't escape and was chewed up and swallowed.
Seeing Miao Feng die in front of him, Miao Renlong became furious.
He had originally intended to explain things to Aomo, but Aomo killed his most beloved son!
The bloodline of the Wailing Cave was not as diluted as the Dragon Clan's, and they emphasized having many children for good fortune.
Of course, the more powerful a cultivator was, the more difficult it was to conceive offspring. However, Miao Renlong, despite being over seven hundred years old, managed to give birth to Miao Feng.
Fathers always seemed to dote on their youngest children, and among all of Miao Renlong's descendants, Miao Feng was the most talented, holding a special place in Miao Renlong's heart.
He had truly regarded Miao Feng as his successor and had spent over a hundred years nurturing him, pouring countless efforts and resources into him. And now, in the blink of an eye, he was gone.
Not only did Miao Feng die, but he died so tragically, not even sparing his soul. Miao Renlong went berserk on the spot.
"You! You've gone too far!"
At this point, Miao Renlong no longer cared about the agreement not to damage the relationship between the two clans. He only had one thought in his mind: to get revenge!
Western Emperor felt relieved. Finally, a fight had broken out. Now, she also had to act righteous and stand with Black Emperor, preferably pinning the blame on Miao Renlong.
"Devour!"
Miao Renlong released a swarm of dark insects that attacked Aomo. Aomo's ethereal tentacles ruthlessly struck back, but to his surprise, these dark insects were not killed by his strikes. Instead, his spiritual power suffered slight damage.
Aomo was startled and dared not use his spiritual touch to interfere anymore. These insects were quite insidious, actually able to devour his Divine Soul.
"Rage of the Surging Waves!"
Aomo quickly switched to a different Divine Ability, causing a surging wave to sweep towards the insects.
Truly worthy of being a Monster Sovereign. Although he rarely interacted with the people of the Wailing Cave, after suffering a loss, he immediately thought of the correct way to respond.
Since the opponent's insects had the ability to devour, he naturally couldn't use his spiritual touch to touch them again. Instead, he used tangible objects to ruthlessly wash them away.
This response indeed prevented the insects from getting close to him, and no matter what kind of insects the opponent brought out, he could counter them in a similar way.
Seeing them fight like this, Fuhu quickly tried to intervene.
"Stop, please stop! Don't fight anymore!"
Heavy rain fell, the effect of Aomo's spell. In the pouring rain, Fuhu Venerable anxiously tried to persuade both sides to stop fighting.
However, how could the anger in their hearts be appeased by a few words from Fuhu Venerable when both the human and the demon were seeking revenge for their offspring?
Seeing this, Fuhu Venerable prepared to personally intervene and separate the two sides.
If they continued fighting, it was estimated that even Long Yi would be unable to control the aftermath of the battle.
The people of Dragon Transformation Palace have already evacuated the people of Dragon City outside the protective shield. The protection could collapse at any moment.
But that's not important.
Dragon City can be rebuilt even if it is destroyed. What's terrifying is that if he can't stop the two of them from continuing to fight, the war between the two races could start at any time.
Only by stopping them now is it possible to resolve this catastrophic disaster.
However, just as Fuhu was about to take action, Western Emperor stepped forward.
"Do you want to outnumber and bully my sea race? If that's the case, then I'll be your opponent!" Western Emperor said.
Fuhu was helpless when he saw that Western Emperor not only didn't help mediate, but also added to the chaos.
"Western Emperor Fellow Daoist controls the Western Territory waterway. Don't you hope for friendly coexistence between the two races? I believe there must be a misunderstanding here. If we can resolve this conflict, wouldn't it be a good thing for both our races?" Fuhu said.
Upon hearing this, Western Emperor decisively shook her head.
Regardless of whether there is a misunderstanding or not, she must turn it into solid evidence.
But she couldn't let anyone know her thoughts. She just said sternly, "The Western Territory waterway does involve significant interests, but is my sea race the kind of people who forget their principles for personal gain? If you don't give my sea race an explanation for the death of the Black Prince's daughter, even if it means permanently closing the waterway, I won't let you bully us like this."
Aomo, who was fighting with Miao Renlong, could also hear the commotion over here. At this moment, he was deeply moved.
Western Emperor, what a great brother!
It's a pity she's a woman, otherwise Aomo really wants to become brothers with her.
Such righteousness, brother!
Little did he know that Western Emperor was afraid of the truth being exposed and her identity being discovered.
By then, she would be seen as a mortal enemy by the simple-minded Monster Sovereign, Black Emperor, and her reputation within the Sea Monster Race would be ruined.
The ancestors strictly forbid Sea Monsters above Monster Sovereign from fighting each other, let alone Sea Monsters above Monster Sovereign attacking their fellow Sea Monsters with lower cultivation.
Violating the taboo of the ancestors, the anger of the ancestors is not something a mere Monster Sovereign like her can bear.
In any case, she must do her best to remove herself from the situation. For this purpose, what does a mere war and a period of waterway income matter!
Although it pained her, Western Emperor still held back.
The money lost during this period will have opportunities to be earned back in the future.
Long Yi coldly watched all of this. He used the excuse of protecting Dragon City to not take action. Although he was suspected of not following orders, no one could truly blame him.
Moreover, if he were to attack Aomo as well, it would be equivalent to a group fight, and the contradictions would become even sharper.
It's better to stand aside and adapt as the situation unfolds.
As an observer, Long Yi's thinking is clearer.
He is certain that Ao Long's disappearance must be the work of the Western Emperor.
It's just that Ao Mo is too foolish to realize this.
Long Yi is too lazy to expose the truth. After all, Dragon Transformation Palace and the Western Emperor's Palace have no grudges, so there's no need to offend them. Let them direct their anger towards the Spirit Cave, which aligns with Long Yi's interests.
Moreover, Ao Long's disappearance may not be unrelated to the Spirit Cave.
Perhaps, as the Western Emperor said before, the Spirit Cave indeed has intentions against him.
In that case, he will just watch from the sidelines and wait for the story to unfold.
On the other hand, when Zhang Chi saw that Miao Feng had died and his soul had been shattered, he finally felt relieved.
"Well done, Black Emperor. I will treat your daughter well."
Zhang Chi silently said in his heart and did not continue to watch the commotion.
The subsequent development of the story is beyond Zhang Chi's control. He is only responsible for igniting the bomb to kill Miao Feng. He doesn't care about the extent of the damage caused by the bomb.
One can only be a thief for a thousand days, and it is impossible to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
Instead of worrying every day about what tricks the other party will use against him, it's better to come up with a plan to deal with them.
With Gu Youyou's help, Zhang Chi quietly returned.
Miao Yin and Long Yan were guarding outside Zhang Chi's room, and there were defensive formations set up around.
In fact, they didn't need to be so vigilant. It was just a Foundation Building cultivator in seclusion, and he would probably come out in three to five days, at most half a month.
It wouldn't be a big problem if a cultivator at the Foundation Building stage was disturbed, so as long as they took a little care and prevented any sneak attacks, it would be fine.
This is Long Shou Peak, and it's unlikely that anyone would launch a sneak attack. Even if it's Miao Feng, his plan is probably to lure Zhang Chi out and not dare to act on Long Shou Peak.
They were overly concerned, purely out of care, and completely forgot that they had also come from the Foundation Building stage.
Seeing how serious they were, Zhang Chi didn't disturb them.
Seclusion couldn't just last for one day. Zhang Chi planned to seclude himself for three days and then come out, claiming that he had completed his comprehension.
It was just some basic sword techniques, and Zhang Chi could easily demonstrate a few.
After mastering the Sword Intent of Destruction, Zhang Chi could effortlessly perform related moves. Of course, it was just a variation in style, nothing particularly special.
It's probably... like writing a watered-down paper on a topic. Once you grasp the core, you can water it down as much as you want.
In the secluded chamber, Zhang Chi took out Ao Long and Hong Li from the Spirit Beast bag, and then casually knocked Hong Li unconscious.
"Alright, now we can talk about serious matters."
Ao Long: "..."
She didn't know what method Zhang Chi was going to use to torture her. This human was truly terrifying.
As a Monster Sovereign, Ao Long trembled all over when she saw Zhang Chi's gentle attitude.
The more friendly Zhang Chi's expression, the scarier he seemed.
Don't come any closer!
Ao Long silently prayed in her heart, but she was still grabbed by Zhang Chi.
Her tentacles involuntarily wrapped around Zhang Chi's arm, and Ao Long felt extremely ashamed.
She was no longer clean!
"Don't be afraid, I just want to discuss something with you."
Zhang Chi used the word "discuss," but there was actually no room for discussion in this matter.
Ao Long also had some self-awareness and responded, "You can speak. As long as you don't pour salt on my wounds, bleed me, or randomly knead me, I can agree."
In just a few days, Ao Long had almost lost all her dignity as a Monster Sovereign in Zhang Chi's hands.
It was too miserable. At first, she thought that soaking her wounds in saltwater was the most terrifying punishment, but she didn't expect Zhang Chi to have even harsher methods.
Her mentality had also undergone some subtle changes. From initially being unwilling and wanting to escape, she had become a limp fish now, as long as she wasn't being tormented.
Hearing her words, Zhang Chi couldn't help but blush. He never intended to bully Ao Long, and he even quite liked her.
Otherwise, why would he diligently change the water in the fish tank? The interactions between them were usually very friendly.
He didn't get to bleed her, but there was no other way. For self-preservation, it wasn't a big deal to take a little blood from her, right?
He didn't take her essence blood, and the harm caused was even less than when Ao Long willingly gave her essence blood to Hong Li that day.
However, seeing Ao Long in such a dejected state, Zhang Chi didn't feel like teasing her anymore.
Zhang Chi asked, "If I give you a chance to meet your father now, would you be willing?"
"I'm willing!"
Afraid that Zhang Chi would change his mind, she immediately agreed.
Before, she was thinking that no matter what request Zhang Chi made, she would resist and not let him take advantage of her.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chi gave her a big surprise, making it impossible for her to refuse...
