517 Blinded By Greed (1/2)

Emperor Yanfeng rose in anger as his gaze flickered. ”Return my wine to me!”

Xing An sat still with his hand clasping on the mouth of the wine jar. Emperor Yanfeng slowly stretched his palm out, but it was extremely difficult. Just a short distance took him the time of half an incense.

Beside the bonfire, Qin Mu, Xu Shenghua, and the rest were silent as they stared at their palms.

Xing An's palm was extremely stable, and his arm clasping the wine jar didn't move at all. However, the arm that Emperor Yanfeng stretched out was gently shaking, his five fingers trembling non-stop. The impact of each vibration sent to Qin Mu and the rest was hard to describe.

Every time his five fingers shook, it was equivalent to executing a divine art. The high concentration of his vital qi could be faintly seen transforming into incomparably fine flood dragons that were between the vein lines of his arm and palm!

Under his skin, there seemed to be a true dragon coiling and concentrating power. However, its power wasn't always in a tyrannical state, but was tightening and slackening.

What Emperor Yanfeng cultivated was Nine Dragons Monarch Technique that he had once imparted to Qin Mu. The youth had later comprehended another type of Nine Dragons Monarch Technique which he imparted to Ling Yuxiu that passed it to her father as well.

Emperor Yanfeng was also a peerless talent. His Nine Dragons Monarch Technique wasn't any remarkable technique at first, but he had improved it continuously and developed its power to the extreme, making it extraordinary in the end. So much so that the technique could be a match for the three big sacred grounds.

After receiving the technique from the true dragon's nest, he had erased all of his hidden flaws, and his divine treasures had become even stronger than before. The durability of his divine treasures had also received Xing An's recognition as he felt that they had already reached the god realm!

Now that he had crossed the divine bridge and stepped into the realm of god, his cultivation was also denser than before.

When Qin Mu and Ling Yuxiu saw the power of the true dragon under his skin tightening and slackening in a regular pattern, their minds trembled violently, and they had many thoughts and realizations.

The Nine Dragons Monarch Technique that Qin Mu had imparted to Ling Yuxiu wasn't the complete true dragon's technique since he hadn't managed to read all of the dragon race's writings. After the help of the brother and sister of Bai Family, he learned the meaning of even more writings and took the technique to another level. However, after returning to Eternal Peace, he hadn't yet had the time to impart the more complete technique to Ling Yuxiu.

For Emperor Yanfeng to cultivate to this step with just an incomplete technique, Nine Dragons Monarch Technique was truly inconceivable! He had cultivated as though he had the entire path.

Yet even if Emperor Yanfeng's true dragon divine art entered the path, it was still difficult for him to move in front of Xing An.

Every inch was a challenge for him. Even though the transformations of all kinds of divine arts were hidden well by him, they were still inferior to Xing An's palm that was steady as a mountain.

Finally, Emperor Yanfeng grabbed the mouth of the jar, but Xing An suddenly flicked a finger toward his palm.

Emperor Yanfeng flicked a finger up as well, and their fingers collided. A slight breeze could be heard moving in the wine jar as though the motion raised by their fingers.

At the mouth of the jar, the two fingers were quick as shadows, exchanging countless blows at a rapid speed.

”Kacha.”

Emperor Yanfeng's expression changed as his middle finger was broken.

He endured the pain and released his palm with a smile on his face. He slowly fell back and said, ”Since senior brother loves the wine so much, I shall gift it to him.”

Xing An placed the wine jar down nonchalantly and said, ”My liquor tolerance is low and I'm already done.”

When the wine jar was placed down by him, Hu Ling'er's wine addiction was aroused, and she walked over to get a whiff of it. She said with a smile, ”Since you guys don't want to drink, let me have a taste.”

Suddenly, she heard soft wind moving within the wine jar and looked into it. The wine was swirling inside as something seemed to be moving around in it and fighting.

She moved her small head closer to the mouth of the jar to examine it in detail when someone suddenly caught her by her collar, lifting her up.

Qin Mu pulled her back and placed her beside the bonfire. He shook his head and said, ”Don't look, it's dangerous. If you want wine, I can get Yuxiu to bring a few jars for you.”

”Young master, inside the jar...”

”Is very terrifying.” Qin Mu sneaked a glance at the surroundings and said quietly, ”There are too many people here. I'll poke it later and show you. It'll definitely be magnificent.”

Hu Ling'er couldn't contain her excitement and looked continuously at the wine jar.

The wind within it became louder and louder, which only spiked her curiosity. She kept on raising her head, unable to wait

The fragrance from the wine jar also seemed to be getting thicker and thicker.

Emperor Yanfeng returned to the banquet, and Grand General of Heavenly Strategies came forward to ask, ”Your Majesty, is it time to make a move?”

Emperor Yanfeng's brows raised slightly. ”You sensed it?”

Grand General of Heavenly Strategies nodded. ”A very powerful person. Did Your Majesty clash with him? Let me call Duke Wei over.”

By the time he said that, Duke Wei had already appeared behind him and began speaking in a low voice. ”When Your Majesty was making a move, old minister felt an abnormal motion from underground; your divine arts had shaken the ley lines. That person had to be very strong, Your Majesty...”

Emperor Yanfeng shook his head, ”Don't bother about it. The person was Xing An, and he's temporarily not a threat. However...” He hesitated for a moment. ”It's going to be hard on Minister Qin, who is a truly loyal subject. To delay Xing An, he was willing to keep that man by his side. Never did I expect for a Heavenly Devil Cult Master to be so heroic and courageous.”
