This way, Zhou Bao’s goal could be achieved.

To figure out what was happening in the Dragon Abyss Prison, the best method was to gather the information directly through the subordinates of Master Bai Luo and Rolling Dragon King, right?

Of course, Zhou Bao was not so foolish as to believe that others would just answer whatever he asked about. Thus, all he was doing now was merely to create an opportunity for himself.

The Governing Mansion was not far from the inn he stayed at. After following Wan Youfu for about half an hour, he arrived at the destination.

Compared to other buildings in Right-angle Bay, the Governing Mansion was pretty enormous and distinctive. By distinctive, it meant that it was non-comparable.

The Governing Mansion was not constructed with things like conches but with earth and stones, similar to the buildings of officials in the Seven-deity Regions. But in comparison with the Water Mansion of Master Jinhua, it was several times smaller. It had overhanging eaves, and the richly-painted tower seemed to be hovering in the air. The gate was coated in red, and outside the gate was a big drum, which made the Mansion look like a County Administration in the Seven-deity Regions.

“Has anyone ever come here to beat the drum and file a lawsuit?” Zhou Bao thought to himself. He followed Wan Youfu to the gate where two uniformed Shrimp-headed Demons were standing guard. At the sight of Wan Youfu and Zhou Bao, the two Shrimp-headed Demons hastened to open the gate and guided them in respectfully, while other patrolling demons were left outside of the Governing Mansion.

Following Wan Youfu, Zhou Bao went through a long passageway and arrived at the Governing Mansion’s lobby. However, they didn’t enter the lobby but continued to walk along the lobby, turned right, and then stopped at the door of a quiet room in the side yard.

“Upper immortal, the manager is waiting for you inside. Since I’m of a lower status, please excuse me for not going in with you!”

Zhou Bao nodded and then entered the quiet room on his own.

“My name is Qiu Hai. I pay my tribute to the manager!” After entering the quiet room, of course, Zhou Bao could not use his real name. Thus, he made up a name. But this name was not randomly picked, instead, it was made in accordance with the naming rules of demons. Now that he was disguised as the Outer-body Incarnation of the Dragon Chimera, he surnamed himself Qiu.

The manager of the Governing Mansion at Right-angle Bay was a tall man about 12 feet in height. His appearance had also evolved into a human being, except for some subtle parts, which still displayed his original features. For example, the faint parotid glands behind his ears and the three visible, blue scales on his forehead were all telling Zhou Bao that this manager was originally a fish. As to which kind of fish he was, Zhou Bao had no clue.

“I am Li Quan. You can just call me Old Li,” said Li Quan without beating around the bush and grunted. “The reason I invited you here is that I learned you had displayed powerful Demonic Qi in my territory and planted a magic matrix in the inn 20 days ago. I’m a little worried about that. You know, recently this Sea Area is pretty eventful. A guy like you is the most eye-catching kind, so I need to know about you and your background!”

“This dude really cuts to the chase!” Hearing Li Quan’s words, Zhou Bao gave a dry smile and answered, “I have no background, I just make a living in this Sea Area. As Your Excellency said, this time the rewards His Majesty Rolling Dragon King promised were too alluring. Whoever heard the news would be intrigued. I was muddling along in the Sea Area governed by the Purple Dragon King at first, but then I heard the news and immediately rushed over here!”

“Purple Dragon King?” Hearing Zhou Bao’s statement, Li Quan furrowed his brows unintentionally. This sea was commanded by five Dragon Kings, including Rolling Dragon King and Purple Dragon King. The two Sea Areas they governed respectively were separated geographically by the greatest distance, which equated to two kingdoms sitting on the two poles of the Earth separately. Normally, except for those ranking at the same level of Rolling Dragon King or the Four Ambassadors, people in these two Sea Areas would not have any communication or do any business with each other. After all, the sea world was much more dangerous than the world on the surface.

To Li Quan, Zhou Bao claiming that he was a vagrant seeking a living in the Sea Area of the Purple Dragon King was the same as explaining nothing at all. With Li Quan’s current power and strength, it would be impossible for him to know the situation of a place that far away. He could not investigate the true background of a guy drifting along under the governance of another Dragon King. Even if he wanted to, he had no such power.

“You are under the governance of the Purple Dragon King. But the Sea Area of the Purple Dragon King does not border on that of His Majesty Rolling Dragon King. So, how come you’ve traveled here?”

Li Quan was not a fool either. Sensing the evasive words of Zhou Bao, he asked hastily.

“It’s nothing. Being a vagrant, I’m used to settling down in any corner of the world. Coming here was not my plan in the first place. But then, the Rolling Dragon King issued a sea-closing order and an offer of reward. The reward is so big that it is the biggest one over several thousand years. And there is a chance to obtain a fairy weapon as well. How can I not come?!” Zhou Bao giggled, with his eyes transfixed on Li Quan, for he had detected the chilling murderous intent emanating vaguely from Li Quan’s body. “Your Excellency, all I said was true. I have no intention to deceive Your Excellency. If Your Excellency doesn’t believe me, there is nothing I can do. But Your Excellency better not try to do something to me. Although I am a vagrant, I do have some means to survive from dangers!”

“Oh, really?” Li Quan’s figure moved. He slightly narrowed his eyes and a faint murderous intent instantly permeated the entire room.

Zhou Bao smiled. He was totally unaffected, still sitting there quietly. All of a sudden, his expression changed, and a light black flame gushed out from him.

Sizzling…

It sounded as if something was burning.

“Your Excellency, this is not going well!” Zhou Bao said softly, but his tone was thuggishly fierce. The black flame abruptly rose to its prime, emitting wafts of richly savage Demonic Qi.

Li Quan’s face suddenly reddened, and his body began to shiver as well. This was not because Li Quan had flown into a rage out of humiliation, it was due to the natural pressure that a superior creature could impose upon an inferior one.

The body Zhou Bao was using right now was the Primitive Dragon Chimera, a Primordial Fierce Beast!

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.   ( Updated by NovelFull.Com)

“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.
