Chapter: 1431 (2/2)

“Stop, I give in. You actually had the Destruction Beast.” A screeching noise like fingernails scratching on metal was transmitted over.

Qing Shui had the Dragon Slaying Beast stop after the unexpected outcome. The thing about Destruction Beast was that Qing Shui thought it was talking about the Dragon Slaying Beast. But why was it called the Destruction Beast? Did the Green Dragon not know about the Destruction Beast?

“Older sister, are you interested in keeping it as your battle partner?” Qing Shui turned around and asked Hua Rumei.

“Me? Can I?” Hua Rumei was shocked and asked. She had wanted a battle beast for her own, a formidable battle beast. She was most definitely satisfied with the Ancient Fire Snake in front of her.

Hua Rumei already had a mount, but it did not help her in battle. Demon Lord had the Old Turtle which was an Ancient Rare Species, it knew several Heavenly Techniques, and its speed and battle prowess was also very strong.

“Of course. Feed it this and it will be your tamed beast afterwards.” Qing Shui took out a bottle of Mid Grade Sacred Beast Pill.

After many years, Qing Shui had refined some Mid Grade Sacred Beast Pills. The materials were overly valuable, however, so he could not mass produce it. Moreover, each person had a limit on its use. If they were not beast tamers, they could not use more than one or two pills. Qing Shui had not tried Double Portion or Quadruple Port Medicine, he felt it would not affect the effects of the Sacred Beast Pills.

With Hua Rumei’s strength, using the mid grade Sacred Beast Pill on the Ancient Fire Snake should not incur any accidents. Seeing the Ancient Fire Snake’s resentment in its eyes, however, Qing Shui wanted to rid his mind of any thoughts of worry.

“Older sister, take out your weapon and come over.”

Hua Rumei was stunned but still took out a pair of blood-red thorns, then walked over to the Ancient Fire Snake.

Qing Shui noticed that once the Ancient Fire Snake had seen Hua Rumei’s weapon, it obediently opened its mouth and swallowed the mid grade Sacred Beast Pill. As Qing Shui was not stingy, he took out several items for beast consumption, including Ancient Demonic Fruit.

Hua Rumei happily fed the Ancient Fire Snake. This trick was effective without fail. After all, it made Hua Rumei into a beast tamer. With the imposing effects of the Sacred Beast Pill, neither would allow the other to receive a fatal blow. With this human giving it such benefits, staying by her side was not such a bad idea.

He never thought that they would receive such a huge gift from the Ancient Forest. The Ancient Fire Snake was a formidable beast, and although its defense was not comparable to the Old Turtle, its attack and destructive power was stronger than the Old Turtle after it had consumed the Ancient Demonic Fruit.

The Ancient Fire Snake was a mutated species. Its fire had mutated to Solar True Fire, therefore its power was horrifying. The flame was comparable to Hellfire Phoenix’s Hell flame. The only reason he did not tame it himself was for the Demon Lord Palace.

The strength of this beast was attractive to Qing Shui, but Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant and Fire Bird’s strength was too far apart from the Ancient Fire Snake, so his urge to tame it was not big. One person’s formidability was not comparable to a full group’s formidability, he had already begun raising the strength of reliable people around him when opportunity arose.

Was Hua Rumei reliable? The answer was certainly yes. Qing Shui had saved her life before, and he had saved Zhan Yu’s life. Given Hua Rumei’s personality, even if she had to sacrifice Zhan Yu, she would not do anything to harm Qing Shui.

Hua Rumei was the Demon Lord’s left and right arms, the relationship between the two was not simple. They were similar to sisters; their two weapons were from the same hands.

Hua Rumei’s power was Demon Lord Palace’s power. Now that he was part of Demon Lord Palace, if there were no unforeseen circumstances, he would not leave the Demon Lord Palace. Unless, that woman did not want him there.

Ancient Fire Snake’s flames emitted from its body could be retracted. Once the flames were out, it showed of a spirited golden snake. His flames were gold in color. It was really close with Hua Rumei…

Demon Lord did not have much change in her expression. At the start, when Qing Shui had mentioned the Destruction Beast or told Hua Rumei to take the Ancient Fire Snake as a battle beast, the Demon Lord had looked at Qing Shui several times.

This could be considered as a joyous occasion for Demon Lord Palace as their strength had increased significantly. Not to mention, Qing Shui had helped Battle Pavilion with their formation techniques, which also helped them raise the strength a bit.

Suddenly, Qing Shui looked at the Ancient Fire Snake. This thing lived here for so long, it should know the Ancient Divine Shrine’s existence. Moreover, it should be familiar with the topography of the area. In a battle, the Ancient Fire Snake would provide a big advantage.

“Brother Snake, do you know the Ancient Divine Shrine?”

Qing Shui’s way of addressing it was not strange, as a formidable Ancient Fire Snake had more than enough status to be addressed this way.

“Ancient Divine Shrine? You guys and those people are both going to the Ancient Divine Shrine?” A metal screeching sounding noise resounded.

“Those people?” Qing Shui asked puzzled, it would seem the Justice Alliance members have already arrived.

“The Ancient Divine Shrine already has lots of people, but they can’t enter. There is a Ancient Formation and also Guardian Ancient Beasts.” Ancient Fire Snake’s sharp voice was very calm this time.

“Are the Guardian Ancient Beasts of the Ancient Divine Shrine strong? How many are there? Are they stronger than Brother Snake?” Qing Shui asked consecutively.

“I don’t know how many, but they are stronger than me. Entering the Divine Shrine is no easy task.”

At the end, Qing Shui had the Ancient Fire Snake take them to the shortest route towards the Ancient Divine Shrine. Even if it was not far, it would still take ten days to half a month’s time to reach it.

Ancient Fire Snake was the king in this area. With him here, the journey was especially peaceful. Qing Shui did not use Nine Continents Step to familiarize himself with the topography of the area.

Qing Shui did not ask any more things about the Ancient Divine Shrine, and that was because he knew the Ancient Fire Snake probably did not know. Moreover, Ancient Ruins did not have only one Ancient Divine Shrine. There were also many Ancient Ruins, each Ancient Divine Shrine with different items in it. It all depended on fate. Some Ancient Divine Shrines did not have restrictions, but others have Ancient Formations or Guardian Ancient Beasts.
