Chapter 714: Chapter 539: If You Don’t Take Money, Then I’ll Use Another Way_3

"..."

Shen Yi slightly raised his eyebrows, recalling that the Wanxiang Pavilion was known for its well-informed nature, and suddenly, he didn’t want the other party to continue speaking.

He glanced sideways at the jade walls surrounding him and then raised his palm.

Boom—

Figures suddenly burst out of the water, all clad in scale armor, old Demon Generals, some with a single horn, some with long beards, more or less all possessing the bloodline of the Dragon Race.

No less than two dozen of them, each exuding an aura surpassing that of White Jade Capital!

It was a display of force that would require all of Ban Shan Sect’s power to match, resembling that used to eliminate the Earthly Dark Python.

"Eh, where’s Elder Qi?"

Lu Mingchuan, along with a group of Wanxiang Pavilion cultivators, quickly put on an appearance of respect, scanning the figures discreetly with a look of bewilderment on his face.

One had to know that this matter involved many of the great clans of Western Hong and even the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect.

Elder Qi shouldn’t have been stingy about making a personal appearance here.

"Is it your place to inquire about Elder Qi’s affairs?" Among the group of Aquatic Race elders, the one with the most prominent Dragon Race lineage, and aside from an ugly, fierce appearance, with complete horns and a floating beard, spoke.

It gave the Wanxiang Pavilion’s people a cold glance: "Elder Qi has other matters to attend to at the moment. We are sufficient for this task."

"I see! I see!"

Lu Mingchuan chuckled repeatedly, but his heart burned with fury.

The Wanxiang Pavilion had risked its entire livelihood to collaborate with the Western Dragon Palace, yet they were so dismissive. They had clearly agreed beforehand... What could be more important than the information he provided?!

With the Nine Dragons White Jade Cover in hand, along with so many Aquatic Race generals, dealing with these barbarians from Southern Hong would surely be enough.

But what about the rewards from the Wanxiang Pavilion? What about the promises of protection from the Western Dragon Palace?

Without Elder Qi present, who among these Water Generals could make decisions?!

Though his mind raced with these thoughts, Lu Mingchuan still politely said, "Then I’ll trouble the Generals to escort these people back to the Dragon Palace. If there’s any confusion during the interrogation, the Wanxiang Pavilion awaits your letters at any time... And if it’s convenient, we would also like to request an appointment to meet Elder Qi."

"Tch." The leading Great Demon General laughed dismissively, "We’ll see, who knows if what you say is true or false."

Having said so, it refocused its gaze on the Nine Dragons White Jade Cover, eyes falling on the few people trapped within, smacking its lips: "Hall Master? They don’t look the part."

Each of them appeared so young, none matching the description from the information that came from the Southern Dragon Palace.

There were none of the arrogant Turtle Demons, or the tyrannical Dragon Demons.

If anything seemed unusual, it was that the youth in black seemed a bit too calm.

The words of the Water Demons baffled both Dai Jianshu and Zhong Xiu.

Yet, being cultivators of Southern Hong, they still possessed some courage, avoiding too much panic and instead looking toward Sect Master Shen behind them.

But Shen didn’t seem to have any intention of revealing his identity; he just reached out with a palm, his long fingers slowly clenching.

"We now..." Dai Jianshu started, unable to contain his impatience. At the very least, they had to try and get the message out.

Zhong Xiu frowned slightly, her ears twitching, looking puzzledly to the side.

The moment those slender fingers were completely clenched, a crisp sound echoed clearly in everyone’s ears.

Crack.

Countless thin pieces of jade flew in all directions, emitting a gleaming luster under the blazing sun, as the nine lifelike Golden Dragons seemed to have their backs crushed by a heavy weight, letting out whines of agony.

Then they turned into a heap of junk, along with the sky full of jade fragments, crashing loudly into the water.

"..."

Lu Mingchuan’s face, previously filled with sycophantic smiles, gradually stiffened, his hands held aloft froze in the air.

He numbly stared at the black-clad youth, noticing that the youth casually glanced back but swiftly redirected his gaze elsewhere.

```

But it was that fleeting eye contact that added a dazzling array of stars to Lu Mingchuan’s eyes.

He and the many Wanxiang Pavilion cultivators standing behind him were all rooted to the spot like wooden stakes, struck dumb.

Having reached the Perfection of Tianyan Forty-Nine and with the cultivation of a fourth-tier city opened.

Shen Yi couldn’t be bothered to take another look, and turned his gaze toward the group of water generals.

"Hehe... Hehe..."

Lu Mingchuan wanted to beg for mercy, wanted to angrily denounce Qi Lao Qi for not keeping his word, but under those indifferent eyes from all directions, he could only tremble, thinking only of prostrating himself on the ground.

However, as a Daozi of Wanxiang Pavilion, even this simplest of actions was now a luxury beyond his reach.

As he was about to bow his head, it fell into the water, and as he attempted to kneel, his limbs and torso burst apart instantly. Apart from him, the many Wanxiang Pavilion cultivators behind him also neatly turned into a rain of blood and flesh.

The rich scent of blood filled the surroundings in an instant.

It made Dai Jianshu and Zhong Xiu stop their swallowing reflex—the scene was all too familiar. The same lifting of a palm, only last time it was Elder Liu Xingshan, and this time it included a whole eight Wanxiang Pavilion cultivators, plus the Nine Dragons White Jade Shield.

"Hoo."

Shen Yi slightly adjusted his breathing. The Precious Technique of Zhenyue, now perfected, had granted him a power close to that of the Union Dao Realm stage, allowing him to break this jade shield, but at a considerable cost.

As for the remaining twenty-something Aquatic Race generals...

He lowered his hand, flicking the Yin Yang Badge at his waist with a finger. With An Yi always by his side, this fourth Dao Soldier consumed her foundation, hence Shen Yi never once withdrew it.

In other words, he was now continuously maintaining the enhancement of the fourth-tier city.

Ding.

The effect of the Yin Yang Badge was actually quite simple.

White Jade protects the divine, Dark Jade harms the soul.

That tiger roar was a fierce and sinister method targeting the cultivator’s divine soul!

"You dare destroy my seventh brother’s magic treasure!"

The fall of the Wanxiang Pavilion cultivators was obviously a shock to the old Aquatic Race general. In that instant, it rose furiously along with many demon generals, and under the sweeping surge of their ferocious qi, they brazenly pounced on the figure in black robes.

Their display was even more terrifying than the all-out offensive of the Ban Shan Sect!

However, as the jade pendant swayed, a roar nearly solidifying into substance, resembling a fierce tiger’s head in void form, towering a hundred zhang tall with sharp fangs, engulfed all of those figures in its gaping maw!

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The twenty-some figures froze abruptly in midair. They gaped at Shen Yi ahead, their faces still twisted in rage, but their eyes had already sunk into dullness, devoid of any life.

They were like stone statues, tumbling one after another towards the sea below.

In this eerie moment.

Shen Yi casually waved his sleeve, gathering all the intact demon bodies into the finger ring.

Having done all this, he finally looked sideways to the two beside him, "Are we still going?"

"..."

Dai Jianshu and Zhong Xiu instinctively looked left and right, only to see the sea surface that was crowded with figures a moment ago had now become frighteningly empty in a short span of time.

They swallowed hard, finally returning their gaze to the man before them, their voices trembling slightly as they spoke, "Sect... Sect Master Shen?"

Though the face was as familiar as ever and even the expression had not changed much from before, now, they truly hesitated.

"If we’re not going, let’s head back then." Shen Yi nodded lightly.

He felt that through normal means, it would probably be impossible to get anything out of Wanxiang Pavilion’s mouth, and it seemed like these people knew a bit too much. But if he were to use his own methods, taking these two along might be somewhat inconvenient.

"We’ll follow your lead." Dai Jianshu was in no position to disagree now.

People said Su Hongxiu had a fierce killing nature, but compared to the man before them who had casually taken nearly forty lives without a change in expression and without even a tremor in his voice, she could almost be considered a harmless little girl.
