Chapter 824: Hunting

A silhouette was riding a blue wave in the air, he was wearing a dragon robe. They stood above the East Sea looking indifferent. The waves under their feet were moving with the wind.

There were a number of people around him, all wearing dragon robes but of different colors. They looked dignified and majestic in their own way, their Qi was great like that of heroes.

Surprisingly, apart from the purple-golden dragon king, there were two other dragon kings including Qing Mu. Between those three dragons kings, Qing Mu had the lowest status. The others were the Zun Dragon cultivators and the ruler of the main central dragon palace. That palace was found in the middle of the other four, the Dragon Ruler.

The Dragon Ruler had heard that someone had obtained one of the jade emperor’s treasures and was extremely interested. At such a high level, he dreamt of becoming a real emperor. He hoped that he would one day rule over the continent and become one of the emperors of the continent. Then the Gan Yu region would just be a tiny territory in his eyes. The jade emperor’s treasures inevitably contained imperial Qi which would prove helpful to him.

Even though he was the Dragon Ruler, he admired the emperor. In the eyes of real emperors, everyone else was insignificant.

Of course, back then, the demoniac emperor was an exception, he had the power to crush the jade emperor and terrify everyone else in the Continent of the Nine Clouds.

“Qing Mu, have the cultivators from the four dragon palaces left already?” asked the Dragon Ruler while looking at Qing Mu. He slightly bowed and replied respectfully, “Dragon Ruler, they have already left and are looking for Lin Feng. They will capture him alive.”

“Okay.” the Dragon Ruler said while nodding, and then added, “Remember, nobody can know about the treasure, everybody who already knows has to keep their mouth shut. And you guys can’t chase him yourself, otherwise, it will arise suspicion.”

“We understand.” said Qing Mu and the others. They had to remain calm and detached at this crucial moment. They had to stay quiet about Lin Feng’s secret. The emperor’s treasures had to be acquired by the East Sea Dragon Palace. They couldn’t let the other influential groups know about the treasure. Otherwises, a great war would start. Capturing Lin Feng would be even harder if other people knew about it.

It was because of this that the people of the East Sea Dragon Palace were being overcautious and discreet.

They weren’t too worried, they had sent the four dragon generals who were the second strongest cultivators in the region, right after the dragon kings. Besides, they had also taken the four dragon kings’ beasts along. They were cultivators who had reached the top of the Xuan Qi layer and possessed incredible Tian level beasts with them. Lin Feng would never be able to escape them.

…………

Lin Feng wasn’t showing himself because he knew that the people from the East Sea Dragon Palace were everywhere in the empire and were looking for him. He hadn’t flown in the sky since putting away the roc, now he could only rely on his wind intent to run faster. He didn’t dare stop for even a second. Surrounded by all these strong cultivators from the East Sea Dragon Palace, the situation was very dangerous for him.

After half a day, Lin Feng managed to leave the East Sea Empire and arrived in a vast jungle, but he couldn’t stop to rest yet.

“Roarrrr!” In the horizon, a wild beast roared and a terrifying Qi could be felt. Lin Feng was startled and pulled a long face.

Lin Feng ran towards a dense shrubbery and buried himself inside. He could sense the bestial Qi getting closer. His eyes turned dark and the world around him became gray.

“Roaaar!” Roars kept spreading as crackling sounds could now be heard. Pieces of wood on the ground broke not far from the shrubbery where Lin Feng was hiding. A cruel and ferocious looking flood dragon appeared. It was walking slowly and the Qi it exhaled was scary. A cultivator wearing a dragon robe was riding the dragon, they were probably from the East Sea Dragon Palace.

“Shit, here they are again!” cursed Lin Feng. That beast or even the cultivator on its back might be able to sense his Qi.

Lin Feng could see everything in his head and couldsee that the one riding the flood dragon held a dragon spear. They were slowly walking towards him. Lin Feng felt nervous, he had to prepare for the worst.

He couldn’t use the jade emperor’s palace unless he was sure he could imprison his opponent and had to make sure nobody was in the surroundings, otherwise they would see it and he would have to resort to one of his most terrifying methods and turn into a demon again.
