Chapter 1264: I Want to Swim Back
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Faced with Han Fei’s question, the old turtle couldn’t help but ask, “What can possibly happen? The Venerables would just scan here with their perception. Even if you take this opportunity, what can they do?”
Han Fei said, “They will tell the king and the king will notice me. If the king notices me, I’ll be in danger. G.o.d knows if the king will see me through.”
The old turtle said, “Even I can’t tell. You are now a sea demon, an authentic sea demon. The only problem is your real strength. If it’s really discovered, as long as you create the illusion that you are going through a tribulation and improve your strength to the junior Dao Seeking realm, most of the problems will be resolved.”
Han Fei was lost for words. “I’ve already transcended the tribulation. How can I trigger thunder and lightning?”
The old turtle said, “It’s none of my business. However, in this vast sea, we’ll meet someone who is transcending the tribulation anyway. What do you think?”
Han Fei’s eyes glittered, and he exclaimed, “As I expected, the older the ginger, the spicier it is! As long as I control the creature that is transcending the tribulation, I can deprive it of its tribulation. In this way, I can create an illusion that I’m transcending the tribulation.”
The old turtle: “I didn’t teach you that.”
Han Fei said, “That’s what you think. However, it doesn’t matter. This method is good. If it doesn’t work, I have one last solution. The Fish Dragon King is still in my hands. If I have to, I’ll make him transcend the tribulation and then I’ll steal his tribulation. It’ll be very convenient.”
In Forge the Universe, the Fish Dragon King looked at Little Fatty who was holding a big octopus and absorbing its essence blood. For some reason, he had a bad feeling.
The Fish Dragon King lay on the ground in frustration, thinking, s.h.i.+t, I’m doomed.
…
Han Fei adjusted his state again, and everything seemed to have calmed down. He even practiced the Near at Hand Technique for a day in the white mist, specifically found some creatures to fight for a long time, and fought so loudly as if he was afraid that the people above the Ice G.o.d Canyon didn’t know what he was doing.
Although this trick was simple, it worked. The Venerables were so confident in themselves that they wouldn’t believe Han Fei had taken something that even they couldn’t take.
One day later, Han Fei came out of the smoke, looking energetic and powerful.
At this moment, Gui Sanqing, who had been possessed by the old turtle, suddenly opened his eyes and followed Han Fei.
Han Fei turned back into the Fish Dragon King and entered the Ice G.o.d Strait. Immediately, a Venerable summoned him.
In the Thousand Star City, not everyone could see a Venerable because Venerables usually appeared as trump cards and were the pillars of a large clan.
In the Water-Wood World, however, not only were there many Venerables on the Sea of Clouds Divine Tree, but there were also many Venerables in the two royal cities.
This meant that there were at least more than 200 Venerables.
The one who summoned Han Fei was the Sea Horse Venerable.
After seeing Han Fei enter his palace, he slowly raised his eyes. “You seem to have made a lot of progress. This time, you should have secured your position on the Genius List in the royal city. In a short period of time, no one can threaten you. I just wonder when you transcend the tribulation.”
Han Fei replied respectfully, “This time, I may be able to reach a higher level.”
“Oh?”
The eyelids of the Sea Horse Venerable slightly opened, but he didn’t take it seriously. How the Fish Dragon King grew up had nothing to do with him. Since the Fish Dragon King chose to gain experience in the Ice G.o.d Canyon this time, he was somewhat closer to them.
Besides, Venerables like them didn’t stay in the Ice G.o.d Canyon all year around. They would return to the Royal City or go to battlefields from time to time.
However, the strong had their own selfish motives.
It was impossible for the Fish Dragon King to become friends with them. However, Yu Cailing and Lan Xue’er had survived this trip to the Thousand Mountain Ancient Realm and were both subordinates of the Fish Dragon King. Their talents were obviously not weak. Although they couldn’t compare to the Fish Dragon King, if he could nurture them, he had plenty of ways to subdue them.
He said, “Dragon King, you’ve gained the full support of the Ice G.o.d Canyon this time. You know that the Royal City has always been strict in recruiting people. Yu Cailing and Lan Xue’er may not have a chance to become Venerables, but as long as they don’t die, they can definitely become Half-Venerables. If they want to go to the Royal City, they’d better have someone in the city to help them. Otherwise, they won’t even know how they died… Since they used to be your subordinates, please take care of them a bit.”
Han Fei sneered in his heart. He knew that Venerables weren’t so kind as to chat with him. Sure enough, they all had their own purposes. They wanted to nurture their own talents, so they needed someone to cover up for them.
After all, the Venerables were outside, and they couldn’t interfere in the affairs of the Royal City.
Besides, how many sea demons in the Royal City didn’t have any trump cards? It was said that it was difficult to go to the Royal City, so it should be really difficult. Even a Venerable had to take the back door, which showed how difficult it was to go to the Royal City!
However, this was just a small favor. He didn’t have to provoke a Venerable now. It wouldn’t be good if the Venerable harbored a grudge against him.
Therefore, Han Fei said indifferently as if he didn’t take it seriously, “It’s just a small matter. After returning to the Royal City, just let them go there.”
The Sea Horse Venerable smiled. “They’re your subordinates anyway. Why don’t you just let them follow and take care of you?”
Han Fei thought to himself, How can they take care of me?
Han Fei shook his head slightly. “No. This trip to the Thousand Mountain Ancient Realm made me realize that there are many strong masters. The woman from the Water-Wood World and the Blood Demon from the Blood Sea Divine Wood City who ambushed me are both very strong. I still lack experience. I plan to gain experience all the way back to the Royal City.”
The Sea Horse Venerable was slightly surprised. “Are you going to swim back in person?”
Han Fei said, “With Gui Sanqing following me, there shouldn’t be a problem.”
The Sea Horse Venerable thought for a moment and realized that it did make sense. There were powerful creatures in the outer sea, but the truly powerful ones weren’t there. With the protection of Gui Sanqing, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to return to the Royal City.
However, Yu Cailing and Lan Xue’er couldn’t follow him. Whether it was dangerous or not depended on the person. For Han Fei, it was indeed not dangerous, but for these two people, it might be extremely dangerous.
Therefore, the Sea Horse Venerable nodded slightly. “OK, when you return to the Royal City, I’ll arrange for someone to send the two of them over.”
…
After the trip to the Thousand Mountain Ancient Realm, Yu Cailing and Lan Xue’er became good friends.
At this moment, in Yu Cailing’s cave, Lan Xue’er said, “Sister Cailing, are we really going to leave with the Fish Dragon King? This person is heartless, and… Will he really become our pillar of support?”
Yu Cailing’s eyes were firm. “Xue’er, people have to rely on themselves. When you reach the Royal City, you’ll have to find a way to show your talent, talent in any aspect. If the Fish Dragon King is not reliable, you’ll have to find another master. Anyway, as long as you survive and become stronger, the situation will change one day.”
However, Yu Cailing was still a little worried and asked in a low voice, “Xue’er, is that Fish Dragon King… dirty?”
Lan Xue’er gritted her teeth. “He is very aggressive and domineering.”
Yu Cailing: “…”
Just as the two girls were worried, they suddenly heard a Venerable say via voice transmission, “Okay, the two of you don’t need to follow the Fish Dragon King now. This guy is going to swim back to the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City from the Ice G.o.d Canyon to gain experience. It’s a good thing for you. Otherwise, you may be in danger. When he returns to the Royal City, I’ll arrange for you two to go there.”
Both of them were surprised and hurriedly said, “Thank you, my lord.”
After a while, the two of them looked at each other in relief. They didn’t have to go with Han Fei. At least, they didn’t have to worry about Han Fei’s improper demand.
Although they would still have no choice when they were in the Royal City, at least they didn’t have to worry about it now!
Lan Xue’er said in relief, “Fortunately, by the time he returns from his journey, he probably has forgotten about us. And his situation in the Royal City shouldn’t be good. When the time comes, he probably won’t have the time to bother us.”
Yu Cailing nodded slightly. “I’m just a little surprised. This person is indeed arrogant. He wants to swim back to the Royal City?”
Lan Xue’er smiled and said, “What’s the big deal? No matter how bad this person is, he’s still tenth place on the Genius List. Besides, he should have made some progress this time… However, I’m a little surprised. This person seems to be more domineering and powerful than before he entered the Thousand Mountain Ancient Realm.”
Yu Cailing tilted her head and said, “Do you think so too? I feel it too… especially the moment he came out of the Ancient Realm, he was so domineering, much more domineering than when he entered. It was like he was a different person.”
…
Han Fei didn’t know that two women were studying him.
The main reason was that he felt that the Fish Dragon King had too little contact with Yu Cailing and Lan Xue’er. After only one day, they had almost no contact.
Just when Han Fei was about to leave the Ice G.o.d Canyon, he suddenly met the Half-Merman Venerable at the gate. At this moment, he was gazing into the distance, and there was no telling what he was looking at.
Han Fei’s heart skipped a beat. Is he waiting for me? Why?
The Half-Merman Venerable looked back at Han Fei. “Dragon King, have you seen Yu Wendao since you came out?”
Han Fei asked in confusion, “I haven’t seen Mr. Wendao since I came out. Huh! Hasn’t Mr. Wendao been waiting outside the Thousand Mountain Ancient Realm?”
The Half-Merman Venerable shook his head slightly. “He went out to cultivate halfway. I thought he would return before you left. I didn’t expect him to never return.”
Han Fei said respectfully, “I’m going back to the Royal City to gain experience. When Mr. Wendao returns, he can go find me.”
Han Fei thought to himself, Yu Wendao? You’ll never see him in your life.
The Half-Merman Venerable nodded slightly.. “OK! That’s good. Go!”
