886 Chapter 886: The Demon King’s Finger (2/2)
Ao Bai, who was behind Bu Fang, had no color on his face. He immediately relayed a spirit message, instructing the experts of his oceanic species not to provoke Bu Fang.
That human could not be underestimated. Their Shrimp Ancestor was with him!
After walking out of the mine, Bu Fang took a deep breath.
Now that he was out, he wondered how Ni Yan was doing.
That woman was a time bomb. She had the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk, which connected directly to the Hidden Dragon Continent's Great Path's Principle, in her head.
If the Great Path's Principle was shattered, the Hidden Dragon Continent would lose its strongest defense. Of course, it wasn't able to prevent intruders.
Bu Fang looked at scores of people around him, who all said nothing, and then, he dashed toward the Serpentmen City.
The strongest demon king was the first one to get out of the place. This made Bu Fang feel that something bad was about to happen, so he had to return as fast as possible.
His body flickered like a shadow as he glided above the Illusory Spirit Swamp.
Lord Dog and Nether King Er Ha gently moved behind him. Even the others followed them.
A group of people dashed toward Serpentmen City at the same time, at a speed the naked eyes could observe.
Soon, Bu Fang arrived in the city. However, his anxiety only grew more intense.
Meanwhile, Ao Bai was having an internal struggle. His gut was telling him to leave immediately.
However, his ancestor was lying on that human's shoulder. Hence, he thought he had to talk to that human.
This was the reason why he had brought the army of oceanic species with him to the city.
When the serpentmen experts saw the oceanic species' army, they were frightened, and the residents of the city were just as scared.
Earlier, the residents of Serpentmen City had just experienced the terrifying pressure emitted by the strongest demon king's pressure, so they were all still shivering on the ground.
When Bu Fang entered the city, he was stunned to see the scene.
His mental force surged out of him, and he sensed the starlight in the air.
His facial expression changed. Bu Fang returned to the room he was given.
The maid he had asked to watch the room was lying on the ground, trembling hard.
Bu Fang didn't mind her. He pushed the door and walked in.
Nethery and the others followed him in.
Ni Yan lay on her bed. Her face was ashen, and blood trickled down her mouth. The air in the room reeked of blood.
”Tsk, tsk… Poor little girl. Her spirit sea was shattered,” said Nether King Er Ha, who had just arrived beside Bu Fang, seeing Ni Yan's ashen face.
It was obvious that the culprit was the strongest demon king, who had gotten out of the mine first.
Only the strongest demon king had the power to do that.
The Heavenly Star Catcher Disk had been broken as well. Now, the Hidden Dragon Continent would suffer.
Nether King Er Ha thought about the Hidden Dragon Heaven Pass's situation.
Without the Great Path's Principle, they would be unable to protect the Hidden Dragon Continent with just the powers of holy lands' Saint Sovereigns.
Lord Dog yawned. He found a comfortable place to lie down, and soon, he began to snore.
”The Heavenly Star Catcher Disk is broken?” Bu Fang furrowed his brows.
”Anyway, she can still be saved, but it is really difficult to save someone who is destined to die. It isn't something a dish can save…” said Nether King Er Ha.
Something a dish couldn't save?
That dish was certainly not good enough.
Bu Fang frowned. He looked at the exhausted Ni Yan, then exhaled.
This woman couldn't die yet. If she died, how would he go about making his Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine?
Bu Fang rubbed his head. He glanced at Ni Yan's face and felt an ache in his head.
Nether King Er Ha looked at Bu Fang, his nostrils enlarging.
”Bu Fang young man, with three Spicy Blood Lobsters, this king will help you stabilize this woman's spirit sea. What do you think?” said Nether King Er Ha, crossing his arms as he smiled.
”Stabilize her spirit sea? I'll give you ten Spicy Blood Lobsters to cure her spirit sea,” said Bu Fang.
Nether King Er Ha's eyes brightened, but soon, he rubbed his nose, and his smile became forced.
”No, I can't. I can only help you stabilize her spirit sea. I'm good at destroying, but saving people… It's not bad that I can stabilize her situation.”
Ten Spicy Blood Lobsters. Nether King Er Ha felt his heart bleeding.
Bu Fang was hesitant when Nether King Er Ha said that he couldn't recover Ni Yan's spirit sea.
”Then, you just stabilize her first. I'll think of a way to cure her,” Bu Fang said.
Nether King Er Ha glanced at Bu Fang. ”Alright, young people these days… Tsk, tsk, tsk. The price of blood is too high. Three Spicy Blood Lobsters!”
Bu Fang countenance did not change. His gaze remained fixed on Nether King Er Ha as he said, ”I need her to wake up and help me make wine—extremely delicious wine.”
Nether King Er Ha shrugged, and a smile of understanding graced his face. Then, he walked toward Ni Yan.
His finger moved through the air and touched Ni Yan's glabella thrice.
After each tap, wisps of black Nether energy entered Ni Yan's head.
After that, Ni Yan's body regained its color. Her raging mental force was also stabilized.
Bu Fang furrowed his brows, thinking of a way to save Ni Yan.
At that moment, the system's voice echoed in his mind.
”The system's reward for the completed quest has been dispensed. Please take a look and receive…”
