Chapter 1108: I Am Not a Pushover (2/2)
“How about it? Have you reconsidered?”
Upon seeing Xiao Chen halt, that person thought that he was tempted, so he quickly asked.
Xiao Chen did not bother turning around as he said indifferently, “Did I not make myself clear enough? Fine, if you want to make an exchange, bring me a King Spirit Vein. Then, I will hand over the Sea Monarch Headscarf.”
“You…!”
That person who had spoken could not help feeling frustrated. Only a fool would use a King Spirit Vein to exchange for the Sea Monarch Headscarf. Even if one wanted to take advantage of the situation, one should not do it this way.
Furthermore, the entire Eastern Sea Divine Dragon Palace had only one King Spirit Vein. Aside from the Immortal Holy Lands, no faction would have an extra King Spirit Vein stored away.
Xiao Chen no longer bothered with the three. Now, he felt very anxious and wanted to rush back to Heavenly Star Island.
“Pu chi!”
Just as he was about to head away, the seawater before him split open. Four deep-sea flood dragons, each exuding the might of a quasi-Emperor, roared and put pressure on Xiao Chen.
An ancient war chariot followed the flood dragons. An old man pulled the reins, controlling the four quasi-Emperor-level flood dragons.
Xiao Chen felt a chill streak down his spine. This old man was an expert who was already a Consummation quasi-Emperor, able to suppress him.
This person gave Xiao Chen strong, uncomfortable pressure.
However, Xiao Chen did not feel any fear in his heart. He knew that this was a quasi-Emperor who had condensed a soul for the Heavenly Seal. This person was very horrifying, much stronger than himself.
Even so, Xiao Chen still had the Sea Monarch Crown. By using it on the surface of this sea, he could easily leave, fleeing from this old man without any injuries.
Most importantly, Xiao Chen still had the Solar Plume Feather that Little Yellow Feather gave him. That was the protective measure of the Golden Crow, an ancient Holy Beast. It was more than enough to kill this person.
A handsome youth sat in this war chariot. He showed a cold and proud aura. A deep glow in his eyes said that he was the kind of person that was skilled at scheming.
Xiao Chen had met this person before in Despair City. He knew who this person was: the Eastern Sea Divine Dragon Palace’s Young Palace Master.
However, at that time, Xiao Chen had only given him a casual glance. Since he was much more powerful than this person, he had not paid too much attention to Leng Shaofan.
Now that Xiao Chen gave this person a longer look, he found him very familiar. A person came to mind, the thought startling him. This was the Leng Ao whom he had gone to the Sea Monarch Palace with back then.
“It’s you!” Xiao Chen could not help saying.
Leng Shaofan smiled and said, “The Azure Dragon King finally recalls me.”
“Young Master, he killed Elder Feng!”
The three old men flew over from behind Xiao Chen. Then, they quickly reported Elder Feng’s death to Leng Shaofan.
Leng Shaofan’s expression did not change. He nodded and said, “It looks like it was the right decision to abandon the Four Seas Hero Gathering and rush over here. The Azure Dragon King’s strength is truly incredible. Can you tell me how you cultivated for the past year?”
“Secret.”
Leng Shaofan did not show any anger on hearing that reply. His expression did not waver, either. He said indifferently, “That’s fine. Everyone has their own secrets. This is not strange. As the Azure Emperor’s descendant, you were able to sweep through the outstanding talents at your King conferral ceremony. You must have your own fortuitous encounters.
“However, what do you think your chances are against the five of us?”
Xiao Chen pointed to the old man driving the chariot and answered honestly, “This Xiao is not an opponent for this senior alone.”
Leng Shaofan smiled. “This is rather surprising. The Azure Dragon King that can defeat the various outstanding talents in one move each can still be so calm. On further consideration, you must be a smart person as well. Hand over the Sea Monarch Headscarf and state a reasonable price. Even though we are enemies, we can become friends.”
Xiao Chen retorted indifferently, “I have many friends. However, the name ‘Leng Shaofan’ will never be on that list.”
“Attack!”
Leng Shaofan’s face sank. Since they could not come to an agreement, he directly said, “Just suppress him and don’t kill him. It is not worth offending the Thunder Sovereign over this short-lived person.”
The old man driving the chariot put down the reins. Then he slowly stood up. Instantly, an overwhelming aura that could topple mountains and flip seas pressed over. The seawater behind Xiao Chen suddenly soared up into a gigantic three-kilometer-tall wall of water.
Now that the four deep-sea flood dragons were not restrained, they appeared ferocious and bared their fangs and claws at Xiao Chen while roaring, strengthening their auras.
Before these strong auras, Xiao Chen felt like two mountains were pressing down on his shoulders. He moved back slightly and held his saber across his chest. Then, he looked calmly at Leng Shaofan and said, “I advise you to think things through carefully before acting. Do not regret this.”
Leng Shaofan laughed and said, “The Azure Dragon King can also feel fear? Unfortunately, it is now not you giving me the chance to regret, but me not giving you the chance to regret. Attack!”
The moment Leng Shaofan spoke, the old man previously driving the chariot snorted coldly. Then, the four ferocious deep-sea flood dragons charged at Xiao Chen.
