Right now, Master Jin Hua was really angry. He just wanted to gain some advantages, and meanwhile, courted Lan Shui’er. Never did he expect that things would turn out like this. He did gain some advantages from experts of Seven-deity Regions he captured, but compared with his losses, they really didn’t deserve mentioning.
“Fourth Prince is dead. Damn it! He died!”
Hiding in the marginal oceanic trench of the fourth region of the 18 Dragon-bone Regions, known as the Illusionary Sea Area, Mater Jin Hua could not stop thinking about this matter.
This was a vivid example of the old saying I did not kill him, but he died because of me.
Rationally speaking, Fourth Prince’s death was none of his business. It all attributed to his lasciviousness. However, very few people in the Sea Area were reasonable, and Rolling Dragon King was not one of them.
The reason why Rolling Dragon King offered him a great reward rather than caused him any trouble was that he had to appease others. After all these things are done, Rolling Dragon King would come for him. After all, it was him who captured those people that killed Fourth Prince. If not for him, Fourth Prince would still be alive now.
He received such an ending as a result of his insatiable desire for merits and it truly made him feel depressed and angry.
After knowing about Fourth Prince’s death, Master Jin Hua first plan was to escape from this Sea Area, the further the better. He no longer wanted to see Rolling Dragon King.
Of course, this was just his dream, which was far from coming true.
Since this Sea Area was strictly managed by Rolling Dragon King, it was formidable. Most importantly, while there may be, sometimes, frictions between five Dragon Kings in this sea, they always ganged up together against enemies when encountering something serious. Otherwise, there would have been no sea-closing order. Although Mater Jin Hua was a Four-tribulation true Immortal, the five Dragon Kings did not lack masters of martial arts who would make Master Jin Hua appear weak. They could easily kill him, so he could not act recklessly, lest his senior find an excuse to kill him.
“Oh, fairy weapons. Only if I kill that guy and rob him of his fairy weapon then can I have the opportunity to escape from this Sea Area and stay alive!” Master Jin Hua thought ferociously. This was his only hope.
“Yo, isn’t it Master Jin Hua? Why are you here?”
Suddenly, his expression changed greatly after a voice came to his ears. Though he was thinking about escaping, his spiritual mind was alert. He did not expect that he would not notice when someone was near him. What if this guy attacked me…
He was frightened at this thought.
“Don’t panic, it’s me!”
The person saw Master Jin Hua’s appearance and felt happy deep in his heart. As expected, Master Jin Hua was no longer calm and it was his best chance.
“Oh, it’s Ming Haijun. You really scared me!” Master Jin Hua felt relieved as he saw the person. He appeared to be still in a state of shock and said, “Yeah, only people with a cultivation like Ming Haijun can come near me within 100 feet without being noticed. I thought my cultivation has fallen behind!”
“You don’t need to wear a forced smile. I know clearly the situation you’re in!” Ming Haijun was not tall. Judging by the standard in Zhou Bao’s previous life, he was just 1.6 meters tall and not that good-looking too. Moreover, he looked quite thin and pale, which gave others an impression that he was ill. No one could figure out what his original body was because he looked just like a human being now.
“Well, are you here to cash in on me since I’m in a bad situation?” Master Jin Hua’s face darkened as he heard Ming Haijun’s words, and he replied coldly.
“Do you think I’m that stupid? I know that even a beast at bay will put up a desperate fight, let alone you’re not cornered now. If we fight seriously, I’ll be unable to bear your attacks. I’m here to do a deal with you!”
“What kind of deal?”
“How about I help you escape from the Sea Area, and in return, you help me to wrest a fairy weapon?”
“Humph. If I can obtain a fairy weapon, then I surely can escape from here. I don’t need you to do me a favor!” Master Jin Hua said and laughed coldly.
“That’s not true. You should know that there are many people who have their eyes on the fairy weapon. Presently, it’s extremely hard for you to obtain it. Even I can infer that you may escape from here relying on it, do you think that Rolling Dragon King won’t?” Ming Haijun laughed coldly and confidently.
“It seems that both you and I are not sincere. Why should we waste time here?” Master Jin Hua snorted. He moved and was going to leave. However, he did not expect the surrounding seawater to ripple and form a tight circle, preventing him from leaving.
“Well, do you want to force me to stay here?”
“Nope. I just hope that you can take my suggestion into consideration. There are many people in the Sea Area that are watching you. It’s quite hard for you to leave here and wrest the fairy weapon!” Ming Haijun smiled and the circle condensed by seawater disappeared.
“In the Five-dragon Regions, the 18 Dragon-bone Regions is the only one out of five Dragon Kings’ control. It is also the only influence that can help you leave the Five-dragon Regions,” said Ming Haijun. He narrowed his eyes and continued, “It’s not me who want to get that fairy weapon!”
Master Jin Hua’s expression suddenly changed and he said, “You mean…!”
“Of course, it’s Region Master who is interested in it. However, he cannot act recklessly because he and those five Dragon Kings are afraid of each other. Therefore, as a subordinate, I should spare no efforts to serve him. Now, do you still think you’re able to acquire that fairy weapon?”
“Damn it!” Master Jin Hua swore. Ming Haijun totally broke his dream. If experts like the master of the 18 Dragon-bone Regions are also vying for that fairy weapon, he would lose all chances. But should he give up just like this?
“You’d better think twice. You’re really powerful and can be considered as a first-rate expert in the Sea Area, but that’s all. You cannot do whatever you want here, especially when Dragon Kings are involved in this matter. Anyhow, death is your destiny. Why don’t you follow my suggestion?”
“You want me to go and seek refuge with your master. Humph, Ming Haijun, I admit that he is powerful. However, no matter how powerful he is, I don’t believe he can withstand the anger of five Dragon Kings.”
“My master didn’t kill Rolling Dragon King’s son, so why should he withstand the anger from them?” Ming Haijun laughed and continued, “He isn’t that stupid to publicly declare that you’re his man. Come on, you’re worthless now. What else do you want? We cannot accept you in public, at most we can help you leave the Five-dragon Regions secretly!”
“A fairy weapon in exchange for helping me escape? Haha, your master is really skilled at scheming!”
“Master Jin Hua, you should be clear that the fairy weapon is not yours and I didn’t ask you to use it to change for your life. I just ask you to exert yourself to wrest it. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but since we’re acquaintances, I exhort you to follow my suggestion. It is your best choice now!”
“My best choice?” Master Jin Hua smiled bitterly and said, “Maybe, you have to let me think about it carefully.”
“Fine, as long as you can figure it out before that guy gets caught. When that happens, even the 18 Dragon-bone Regions cannot help you, haha!” Ming Haijun left while laughing. He transformed into a drop of water and disappeared before Master Jin Hua.
“Bastard, you bastard!” After Ming Haijun left, Master Jin Hua’s countenance became very dark. He punched the giant rock beside him and the sound made by his fist spread along the seawater. Far away from him, Ming Haijun laughed coldly after he heard the sound.
Master Jin Hua no longer had a promising future. Even if he was lucky enough to escape from the Sea Area, he could not easily stage a comeback.
“It’s really interesting!” Zhou Bao frowned because of confusion. It was the fifth day since he had entered Master Jin Hua’s territory. He committed dozens of robberies in several places over these five days. Currently, the entire Sea Area knew that the enemy of Master Jin Hua was here to cause troubles. The Sea Area was in utter chaos. However, he seemed to be indifferent to this matter. He did not even show up, and there was no news from him, as if he was missing.
Yeah, he was missing. Master Jin Hua was missing. The area under his control was a mess. Zhou Bao suddenly showed up and the governance of Sea Area fell apart. However, Master Jin Hua still did not show up, and Rolling Dragon King did not conduct any action or give any order.
“Shit. Is that fairy weapon so eye-catching that everyone wants to obtain it? With so many people scrambling for it, the chances of getting it is very small!” As Zhou Bao thought maliciously, he was somewhat disappointed because his plan did not work.
He planned to make a mess here to attract Master Jin Hua’s attention, who would then send some men to deal with him. After that, he could reveal one or two Pure Yang Celestial Devices to disturb the peace of this Sea Area. Finally, he could pretend to be caught and try to let them imprison him in Dragon Abyss Prison.
He already figured out the situation. Dragon Abyss Prison only imprisoned criminals above the Mysterious Realm and people who were convicted of grave crimes. His current body was an incarnation, and there exist no such obstacles as that between Metaphysic Individual Immortal and the body. He had already reached the peak of an Individual Immortal’s, which was also the cultivation of Marrow-Cleansing Realm. His combat power was even stronger. If he utilized his Divine Senses together, he could be considered as a True Immortal, who was qualified to be imprisoned in Dragon Abyss Prison. He planned to pounce on an opportunity to save those criminals after entering it. However, the situation now is that he threw a heavy punch, an empty punch. Not only did Master Jin Hua not fight back, several powerful Demonic Immortals hiding in his Water Mansion were missing as well. Without getting the result he wanted, Zhou Bao felt extremely uncomfortable.
This Sea Area was in chaos and no longer worthy.
“It seems that I need to find another place, such as the territory of Master Bai Luo. He hasn’t caused any trouble, and if I go there to make a scene, I may get a better result. But then again, compared with Master Jin Hua, Master Bai Luo is more popular. Maybe he’ll find a powerful True Immortal to kill me directly, and that’s not worth it.”
“Humph, are you Qiu Hai? You only know how to take advantage of other’s difficulties to seek revenge. How could you do that?” As Zhou Bao was deep in his thoughts, a sarcastic voice came to his ears.
