Chapter 1277: Three Great Devil Kings
"After playing with my feelings you want to abandon me, you are shameless..." The devilish female had a wronged expression as she stared at Qin Wentian. The people in the surroundings all cast looks of disdain at Qin Wentian. This fellow depended on his good talent to lure girls in and play with their emotions. How truly shameless.
Qin Wentian’s face was full of black lines. He was completely speechless.
Who was it that was playing with whose feelings...
Naturally, Qin Wentian felt a warmth in his heart. Most probably this devilish female was trying to alleviate her own feelings.
Many experts continued to leave this area and not too long after, Xin Yu returned. The devilish female hugged Qin Wentian’s arm and smiled at Xin Yu, in provocation.
"Sir Qin, Xin Yu has already made some inquiries." Xin Yu didn’t really care about the devilish female. She originally didn’t have any relationship with Qin Wentian, how would she feel jealousy?
Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. A bright light radiated from the center of Xin Yu’s brows, transmitting into Qin Wentian’s mind.
"Vast Sky Devil Emperor, Vast Sky Devil Region. That’s really quite tyrannical." Qin Wentian mused silently. After which he turned to Xin Yu, "Xin Yu, many thanks."
"Sir Qin why are you treating me like an outsider?" Xin Yu’s voice was soft. She transmitted her voice over, "The Fallen Devil Island is the central point of the Fallen Devil Region, it has teleportation arrays which leads to other places, even to the other devil regions. Let me bring you there."
"Mhm, let’s go." Qin Wentian stood up. The devilish female pulled his arm and stood up together with him, leaning into him.
"Third princess." Qin Wentian saw the wronged expression on the third princess’ face and couldn’t help but to turn to her. "The devil king is still waiting for you, just go to him."
"Are you truly intending to abandon me?" The devilish female glared at Qin Wentian, causing him to sigh in his heart. In the past, this devilish female was only mildly interested in him. But now, it seems that she had truly fallen in love.
Qin Wentian cradled the devilish female’s face as he smiled, "Didn’t you say that I’m very cowardly? Today, the guts of this subordinate will be greater than usual."
As he spoke, Qin Wentian leaned his head forward and gave a light peck on the forehead of the devilish female. Yan Yuruo’s eyes flickered, after which, she only felt the warmth of his palms leaving her face as Qin Wentian continued forward. The people beside him and Xin Yu followed after him.
"If you dare to let something happen to you, this princess will definitely not spare you. This princess commands you that if you are free in the future, you have to come and see me more often." The devilish third princess Yan Yuruo shouted loudly at the back of Qin Wentian. There was a smile in her eyes, yet those eyes were red, rimmed with wetness.
"I obey princess’ orders." Qin Wentian waved his hand with his back facing the third princess as he flew further and further.
At this moment, the third princess only felt a hand lightly placed on her shoulder. Turning about, she saw her father, the Blackstone Devil King.
"Just let it go. He is destined to be the dragon in the sky, he is not someone you can hold on to." The Blackstone Devil King softly spoke. Yan Yuruo’s eyes were red, she stared her father, "But, it isn’t easy for this princess to fall in love with a man. He is leaving just like that, I’m truly reluctant to accept this."
"Silly lass." The Blackstone Devil King sighed, not knowing how to console his daughter.
Qin Wentian and the others directly rode on the demon sword as they left. The demon sword expanded in form and there was a gigantic roc phantom beneath it, granting it incredible speed.
The Fallen Devil Island’s teleportation arrays were controlled by different major powers who were independent in nature. By controlling the arrays, they would earn extreme amounts of resources. Everytime an array was activated, it meant that some immensely wealthy character was there. The price was too high to be affordable by ordinary folks, only devil kings would have enough wealth to activate a teleportation array.
Naturally, since the arrays was located in the territory of the Fallen Devil Island, they would give part of their income to him. The devil emperor just needed to sit there and relax while enjoying a sizable income. The amount of resources gained in a day was staggering, and if there were no benefits, what use was there to be the governor of this region?
"There’s someone following us. Wear this well, although it might not be of much use, it should be sufficient enough to negate some of the damage." Qin Wentian waved his hands as some puppeted armors appeared. These were the treasures he found when he entered the Battle Saint Tribe back then. The armors had terrifying defenses, although it wasn’t at the immortal/devil king level, and the benefits the armors provided to Qin Wentian was now negligible, it would still be enough to help them negate some damage.
Qin Wentian opened up the puppeted armors, allowing everyone to equip them as they proceeded forward, fully prepared to do battle.
"Sir Qin, how’s your current state now?" Xin Yu asked. After that intense battle, his energy consumption must have been astronomical and he was even injured. If he was to fight a battle so soon, how could he endure?
This was also the reason why Xin Yu was so impulsive. Although she was truly fond of him, by doing so, it would place her in danger without a doubt.
For devil-cultivators, they wouldn’t mind bullying the weak just to get what they want.
Qin Wentian displayed startling strength in the battlefield, and he surely must have cultivated some extremely extraordinary techniques. If he accepted the reward given by the devil emperor, nobody would dare to touch him. But since he rejected the reward and offended the devil emperor, how would those with designs on him not take this chance to act?
The Blackstone Devil King understood these devil kings the most. This was why he told Qin Wentian to leave the Fallen Devil Island immediately.
"Don’t worry." Qin Wentian spoke. Xin Yu still had a worried expression on her face. She was hoping for those devil-cultivators not to have too fast a reaction. As long as Qin Wentian left the Fallen Devil Island, he would be safe.
Their speed was very fast and after some time, a powerful sect appeared in their vision. Xin Yu silently heaved a sigh of relief. They departed instantly after leaving the devil emperor palace, there shouldn’t be many experts secretly following them.
"Over there." Xin Yu pointed to a direction where resplendent light filled the skies. They directly entered the sect and in an instant, Qin Wentian clearly sensed terrifying devil senses sweeping over to him. Most probably, these were experts who were guarding the teleportation array in this sect.
"We are heading to the Vast Sky Devil Region." Xin Yu spoke. After which, with a wave of her hand, she actually took out the interspatial ring Qin Wentian passed to her, giving it directly to the guards. After the guards inspected it, one of them spoke, "You all may use the array."
"Xin Yu," Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed.
"I’ve decided to stay in the Celestial Devil Lodge, hence I have no need for this." Xin Yu smiled gently at Qin Wentian. "You guys go on."
"Mhm, okay. Take care." Qin Wentian cast a deep glance at Xin Yu. After that, they stepped into the teleportation array.
"Activate the array." The array controller spoke.
"Hold on." At this moment, a voice rang out from afar. Qin Wentian’s expression changed, the experts chasing him from the dark have finally arrived. Quite a few silhouettes could be seen speeding over.
Qin Wentian was acquainted with one of them, the Black Jiao Devil King. His expression was extremely sinister. Back then when Qin Wentian defeated his son, he had never forgotten that. Hence, he had been keeping tabs on Qin Wentian. Now that there was such a good chance, how could he not seize it?
Other than him, there were two other experts. One was an expert from the Royal Devil Sect, while the other was someone sent here secretly by the Old Xia Devil King. They were the ones who paid the most attention to Qin Wentian, waiting for him to leave while pursuing him secretly in the dark. They didn’t intend to give Qin Wentian any chance at all, planning to take his life.
Other than his life, they still wanted the ’treasure’ on Qin Wentian’s body.
"I also want to use the array." The Black Jiao Devil King stepped into the array. With a wave of his hand, he passed an interspatial ring to the array controller.
The other two devil kings did the same. They stood beside Qin Wentian, and acted casually, like they had no business with him.
"Haha, no problem." The array controller smiled. There weren’t many teleportation arrays like this, and the price for using them are all the same. The three who came by later all gave the treasures, paying the price. Since the controllers are earning so much benefits, they naturally would be happy.
Xin Yu’s countenance changed. Her figure flashed and stepped into the array as she spoke, "I’m going as well."
"Activate the array." The array suddenly lit up. Qin Wentian and his group all had unsightly expressions. These devil kings were very smart, choosing not to act on the Fallen Devil Island. After all if they did so, many other experts might be attracted over and at that time, how would they split the loot? They might as well pay the price to follow Qin Wentian and if that’s the case, his treasures would already be in the bag.
The array was activated as the light radiating from it grew even more resplendent. And at this moment, several devil kings rushed over at the moment just as Qin Wentian disappeared. Their expressions couldn’t help but to change.
"There’s a subordinate of the Old Xia Devil King there too. Let’s disperse." A devil king spoke. There were some who hesitated but in the end, also chose to retreat. Since they were late by a step, they already had no fate with the treasure.
The Vast Sky Devil Region, the Vast Sky Devil Island in it was also the main island, and it was a floating one, the same as the Fallen Devil Island. Terrifying spatial fluctuations could be sensed as spatial light gleamed resplendently. A moment later, several figures appeared from the void, appearing in a desolate stretch of wilderness outside the Vast Sky Devil Island. Clearly, this was a single-direction teleportation array. The Vast Sky Devil Island wouldn’t allow the Fallen Devil Island to have a teleportation array inside their territory. In fact, many teleportation arrays of the Myriad Devil Islands were set up secretly in the dark.
"Bzz!" At the instant these people descended, a supremely strong beam of sword light appeared as demonic qi filled the skies. A terrifying shadow of a great roc manifested, wrapping around Qin Wentian and his allies.
In three directions, the three devil kings stood with their hands behind their backs, their eyes gleaming with sharpness.
"We’ve already reached such a stage, you still want to resist?" The Black Jiao Devil King icily spoke. The subordinate of the Old Xia Devil King then coldly spoke, "Do you two want to contend against me?"
"I only want a small share of the profits." The expert from the Royal Devil Sect replied. These three were already discussing how they should split the share of their loot from Qin Wentian!
