Chapter 742: Never Coming out the Shrine!
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
In the secret chamber on the top floor of the Dragon God Shrine, the nine Deputy Shrine Masters stood in order on the sides of the room.
Wearing a long robe, the Shrine Master still faced the wall with his back to the door as if he hadn’t moved for hundreds of years.
The six Deputy Shrine Masters had different opinions about what to do with Hao Ren.
Despite Hao Ren’s complicated background and the growing power of the East Ocean Dragon Clan, the Dragon God Shrine would be able to punish him as a dragon cultivator since his position as an inspector had been removed.
However, the six Deputy Shrine Masters did not agree with each other on how severe the punishments should be.
Meanwhile, the other three Deputy Shrine Masters remained silent. Only these three probably knew about the Shrine Master’s intention.
Yue Zilong who had had dealings with Hao Ren and had captured him in person had a good guess of the Shrine Master’s intention – Locking him for a few days before releasing him without any punishment.
The other two Deputy Shrine Masters also had a vague idea of the Shrine Master’s intention. As instructed by the Shrine Master, they had used an extremely precious level 5 elixir pill to extend Qin Shaoyang’s life, intending to make this incident a personal duel.
The Dragon God Shrine had saved Qin Shaoyang after his body was pierced and was on the verge of death since he was as an inspector. More importantly, the Shrine Master had ordered them to save him.
As to the release of the three metal-elemental dragon cultivators, it was also the Shrine Master’s intention. However, it wasn’t a favor to Qin Shaoyang. After all, a small level 3 inspector couldn’t even talk to the Shrine Master.
Ever since Hao Ren made his name in the Dragon God Shrine’s general exam, the Deputy Shrine Masters had found that the Shrine Master paid special attention to this young cultivator; he had even sent Yue Zilong, whose strength ranked the third place among the nine Deputy Shrine Masters, to East Ocean City.
Like the Soul Formation Realm cultivators, the Deputy Shrine Masters of the Dragon God Shrine rarely showed their faces, which was why they were mysterious to the outside world.
Since only three Deputy Shrine Masters who had the strength of peak Qian-level showed their faces regularly, the outside world all assumed that the Dragon God Shrine had only three peak Qian-level cultivators. Also, those level 4 inspectors who had a little contact with these Deputy Shrine Masters all thought that Yue Zilong ranked the last among the peak Qian-level cultivators.
The truth was that among the nine Deputy Shrine Masters, six were peak Qian-level cultivators, and Yue Zilong wasn’t the weakest one but ranked third!
At a top level, only the Elder Council of the metal-elemental dragon clan could rival with the Dragon God Shrine since they once had eight peak Qian-level cultivators.
However, after Wang Shitong was killed in East Ocean City and Taiyi Cave Master was severely injured by Zhao Kuo, the Elder Council which controlled the metal-elemental dragons lost its head and tail.
While the three Deputy Shrine Masters remained silent and the other six Deputy Shrine Masters argued amongst themselves, the sturdy Dragon God Shrine suddenly shook.
“Hehehe… Dragon God Shrine. How dare you capture my son and nephew!” A crisp yet penetrating voice entered the secret chamber on the top floor!
Hua… Dozens of level 3 inspectors who were on Qian-level and Kun-level flew out of the black Dragon God Shrine.
Wearing short black boots, green jeans, and a grey striped coat, Lady Zhen put her smooth hand lightly on the array formation around the Dragon God Shrine, and it instantly shattered.
Seeing dozens of cultivators flying out, Lady Zhen covered her smile with her slim hand and called out in a low voice, “Yao.”
Wearing a pale grey sweater and a black pleat skirt, Duan Yao had a small leopard print bag on her shoulder.
She dashed out from Lady Zhen’s side while two fire wheels appeared beneath her feet and two swords came into her hands.
After the Kunlun Godly Lamp shattered, Lady Zhen collected the pieces and shot them into Duan Yao’s body with some secret demonic techniques, giving a great boost to her cultivation strength.
While the human cultivators placed great emphasis on progressive elevation, they regarded the fast and unorthodox cultivation techniques as evil methods. However, the Demon Tribe just used these fast techniques.
If one found a demonic cultivation technique and cultivated in secret, they would probably gain great progress first but die soon.
It happened due to the lack of guidance from a powerful demon king.
Generally, the demonic cultivation techniques were regarded as forbidden books, and any cultivator who secretly cultivated the demonic cultivation technique would be killed.
After severing her ties with Sky Mountain Sect, Duan Yao had followed Lady Zhen and was determined to become a demonic girl, deserting all the previous rules. She had reached top-tier Nascent Soul Realm after merging with the fragments of the Kunlun Godly Lamp.
Standing behind Lady Zhen, Xie Yujia was a bit surprised when she saw Duan Yao rushing over.
Even a peak Qian-level cultivator might not be able to fight more than a dozen Qian-level and Kun-level cultivators.
Stepping on the fire wheels and with two swords in her hands, Duan Yao looked like a dashing demonic girl with her black hair fluttering in the wind.
Dang! Dang… Stepping on the fire wheels, Duan Yao’s sword techniques were elegant and light, and her black pleat skirt spread like a flower when she spun. Her movements were swift and beautiful.
She wore a pair of black leather shoes which accentuated her beautiful legs; Lady Zhen had bought those for her at downtown.
When Xie Yujia got the message from the golden shield in East Ocean University, she immediately contacted Lu Linlin and Lu Lili.
She had planned to bring the Lu sisters to rescue Hao Ren, but the usually fearless Lu sisters didn’t act immediately. Instead, they seemed cautious.
From the communication between the golden shield and Little White, they understood that Zhen Congming had also been caught.
After some discussion, they decided to go to Lady Zhen in the Demon Sea.
Thinking that the Demon Sea would be extremely dangerous, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili guarded Xie Yujia carefully. However, when the demon beasts in the Demon Sea saw Lady Zhen’s mark on Xie Yujia’s shoulder, none of them dared to come out!
Despite their unstable realms, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili had reached the Soul Formation Realm, which meant that they were not to be messed with!
After learning that the Dragon God Shrine captured Hao Ren and Zhen Congming, Lady Zhen agreed to come to their rescue. She brought Duan Yao out of the Demon Sea and came to East Ocean City.
Xie Yujia and the Lu sisters were relieved that Lady Zhen agreed to help. However, she wasn’t in a hurry. Instead, she took Duan Yao shopping in East Ocean City!
With her son locked in the Dragon God Shrine, Lady Zhen was in the mood to go shopping!
While Xie Yujia wondered if she should break into the Dragon God Shrine herself and rescue them, Lady Zhen finally came out from the fitting room in satisfaction and flew toward the Dragon God Shrine at a leisurely pace.
Lady Zhen looked as if she were taking Duan Yao on vacation instead of coming out of the Demon Sea on a rescue mission!
Ding! Ding… About a dozen level 3 inspectors surrounded Duan Yao.
Since the dragon cultivators preferred battling at close range instead of shooting dharma treasures from the distance, they surrounded Duan Yao and attacked her with weapons.
Stepping on the fire wheels, Duan Yao’s movements were light and elegant while the black pleat skirt floated up, revealing her white legs. Although she was of the same age as Zhao Yanzi, she had begun to show her charm after staying with Lady Zhen.
“Ok. Yao, that’s enough.” Seeing Duan Yao beginning to sweat, Lady Zhen flew into the high sky, waved her hand, and knocked the inspectors away with a gush of demonic wind.
Duan Yao returned to Lady Zhen’s side, and she withdrew the swords and remained silent while pouting. Her face was flushing charmingly.
Bang!
Meanwhile, the Deputy Shrine Masters rushed out from the building.
With a slight smile, Lady Zhen flicked her fingers and shot out nine pills condensed by nature essence.
The nine Deputy Shrine Masters rushing from the Dragon God Shrine hurried to block.
However, they were no match for Lady Zhen, an external demon king, and they were sent flying backward for dozens of meters and crashed onto the platform.
Some of them tried to get up but were pressed back by a light flick from Lady Zhen. They couldn’t even jump to their feet.
Watching Lady Zhen in amazement, Xie Yujia seemed to get some inspiration for her archery techniques.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked at Lady Zhen’s great power cheerfully, knowing that she could get Hao Ren out.
Since they had caused upheaval on Seventh Heaven, they probably would have to return. Thus, they didn’t dare to make more trouble.
In the Heavenly Prison, Qin Shaoyang sensed the violent shaking of the platform, and he caught a table at the center of the Heavenly Prison hurriedly and looked up at the black ceiling in alarm.
After the initial alarm, the prisoners suddenly yelled with excitement.
Bang! The Dragon God Shrine shook again violently, and the black stones that created this building seemed as if they would collapse.
“Let them go!” Lady Zhen’s loud voice came from the outside of the Dragon God Shrine.
Clutching on a table, Qin Shaoyang managed to stand up and listened carefully.
Ever since the establishment of the Dragon God Shrine, it was the first time that someone dared to attack it.
“This attacker seems very powerful!” Qing Shaoyang thought.
“Mrs. Hong… Please calm down.” A voice suddenly came from the Dragon God Shrine.
This voice wasn’t thunderous, but it traveled very far.
“Kui! If you don’t let them go, I’ll reveal your secrets and destroy your Dragon God Shrine!” Lady Zhen yelled.
Hovering in the high sky on the cloud-shaped Ruyi Cloth, Xie Yujia looked at Lady Zhen by her side and sensed the overwhelming aura.
Only half an hour ago, she had been leisurely shopping at East Ocean City. Half an hour later, she was shattering the Dragon God Shrine’s array formation and forcing the highest organization of the Dragon Tribe to release its prisoners!
“Mrs. Hong, are you forcing me to battle you?” The voice in the Dragon God Shrine got tougher.
Standing on the platform outside of the Dragon God Shrine, the nine Deputy Shrine Masters all looked up in astonishment.
The Shrine Master who had faced the wall for hundreds of years and whose nature essence was not even detectable to the nine Deputy Shrine Masters was going to show his power!
His rivals were two Soul Formation Realm cultivators and one eternal demon king.
“Good. If you attack, you’ll break the promise of never coming out the shrine!” Lady Zhen said lightly with her arms crossed over her chest.
With her two gold earrings and the gorgeous hairstyle, she showed the presence of a calm aristocratic lady.
After hearing Lady Zhen’s words, the voice in the Dragon God Shrine didn’t respond.
Crack!
In the Heavenly Prison, the cells that were locking Hao Ren and Zhen Congming opened automatically.
Qin Shaoyang looked at Hao Ren in astonishment.
Knowing that his mom was here to rescue him, Zhen Congming decided to throw a tantrum and stayed inside the cell.
However, an invisible force supported his back and pushed him through the stone gate that had suddenly opened.
Hao Ren was also tossed out of the Dragon God Shrine by the same mysterious force without any resistance.
“Humph!” Lady Zhen spread her hands, and two forces came toward Hao Ren and Zhen Congming, steading their bodies.
Then, she turned abruptly and led Hao Ren and Zhen Congming away.
