Chapter 440: The Manager of The Governing Mansion (2/2)
Its rank was way higher than that of Li Quan's body. Now, Li Quan attempted to make some petty moves. Therefore, Zhou Bao released the compelling pressure that the Dragon Chimera possessed. It instantly triggered the instinctive horror that had been deeply imprinted in Li Quan's blood and made it hard for him to control his body. If it had not been for his profound cultivation, Li Quan would have already been on his hands and knees, begging for Zhou Bao's mercy.
Swish, swish, swish!
Almost at the same time when Zhou Bao burst out his Demonic Qi, he felt several strong spirits appearing in this side yard, giving off fierce, murderous intents.
”Stop! Both of you!”
Li Quan was a manager after all. He suddenly shuddered and broke away from the nightmare-like situation he had been experiencing just now. He let out several screeches and looked at Zhou Bao with terrified eyes.
It was powerful, brutal, greedy, and cruel.
These were what Li Quan felt from the Qi Power Zhou Bao was emitting. It disabled him from even thinking about standing up against Zhou Bao.
”Primordial Fierce Beast! It's the spirit of a Primordial Fierce Beast! Damn, this guy should be a Primordial Fierce Beast that has successfully taken the form of a human being!”
Li Quan was thunderstruck by this discovery. Now, how could he dare to behave even a little disrespectfully anymore?
No wonder this guy was so confident about snatching the fairy weapon. It turned out that this was a demon evolved from a Primordial Fierce Beast!
The Primordial Fierce Beast was the top-ranked creature among all the devils and beasts. And this one was even in the form of a human being. Let alone Li Quan, even if it was Rolling Dragon King standing in front of this kind of monster, he would have to stay humble or even back off to avoid a conflict with him.
”Never thought it could be you, a senior Upper Immortal, who came over to our mansion. Please forgive me, a junior, for not welcoming you way sooner and losing my etiquette!” This time, Li Quan truly went on his hands and knees to express his admiration for Zhou Bao.
Zhou Bao was taken aback by the sudden change of Li Quan's attitude. He knew that the Sea Area was a strength-oriented world, and everything depended solely on one's own strength. But it was still baffling to see Li Quan put on such a respectful face in just a second. Zhou Bao found this really suspicious.
But suspicion was merely suspicion. Although Zhou Bao did not see through the whole picture at present, he would be an idiot if he failed to take advantage of him being such a respectful guy, right? Of course, Zhou Bao was not an idiot. Instead, he was a ruthless guy who would wolf down the enemy without spitting out the bones.
”Please save all the unnecessary etiquettes. I am just a man muddling along in Jianghu. But it's surprising to see that there are so many experts working for this little Governing Mansion. Those remaining outside all have similar strength to yours,” said Zhou Bao while staring at Li Quan.
”Those Elders are my seniors in my family. This time they have come here to take a post in the Governing Mansion along with me,” Li Quan replied.
Seniors in his family! Taking a post!
Zhou Bao felt that something was fishy in Li Quan's words. It seemed that this rustic Li Quan should be a demon with a background. He even brought five Individual Immortals here to take a post with him at Right-angle Bay.
He seemed to be a man who could be valuable to Zhou Bao!
Stroking his chin, Zhou Bao thought for a moment and then said with a smile, ”Looks like you have quite the strength, right? Well, are you also interested in that fairy weapon?”
”I would not dare! I would not dare!” Li Quan shook his head consecutively. Given his own strength and the strength of his family, possessing one Pure Yang Celestial Device was already his wildest dream. But what if he possessed a fairy weapon? In that case, his whole family would be killed for that!
”I am just a manager at Right-angle Bay and only responsible for maintaining it. As for other issues, I'm not gonna meddle in them!”
A moment later, the five experts who had reached the Individual Immortal Realm seemed to have received his message and went away quietly.
”Not gonna meddle in them? Well, you seem to know your limits. But it better be so. That guy is not as simple as he looks. He is a lineal disciple of the Divine Wind Palace, which is the most powerful sect in the Seven-deity Regions, and has numerous means and tricks. If he were to be the target who possessed a fairy weapon, he would not even know how he died in the end!”
Li Quan nodded wholeheartedly. It was true. Look at the Fourth Prince of the Rolling Dragon King, he was the perfect example. He acted so impulsively and ended up being murdered.
”My family does have a little influence in this Sea Area. But compared to the Rolling Dragon King, my whole family is as weak as a tiny ant, while Rolling Dragon King is as strong as a whale. However, even the Fourth Prince of the powerful Rolling Dragon King had failed to prevent his brutal death. How could I ever manage to escape that fate?”
After sorting this out, Li Quan was more determined to not meddle in this thing.
”By the way, I just arrived here, so I'm not very familiar with this Sea Area. I heard that the companions of that guy have all been thrown into the Dragon Abyss Prison. But what on earth is this Dragon Abyss Prison? Besides, I've been in a closed-door training for over 20 days, so I have no clue about the progress of this matter. Your Excellency, please enlighten me on this,” said Zhou Bao, beaming.
