Chapter 425: Sit Back And Watch; Pocket All Gains
The peach was not small but to the old tortoise, it was like candy. It swallowed it in one go and nodded at Li Nianfan. After that, it gradually closed its eyes languidly again.
“Right, don’t toss away your seeds. I want to try to grow a few more of this tree.” Li Nianfan looked at the tree and shook his head. “The peaches here aren’t enough for us to eat.”
Nanan and Dragin nodded. “Yes, Brother!”
Li Nianfan smiled. He said, “The peaches from this tree are not only yummy, it’s also a nice view. I need to think about how I’m going to plant it.
“Time to work again!”
Following that, Farmer Li Nianfan got to work. Dragin and Nanan helped him as he started plowing the soil to make space for the new trees
Time passed like water. Three days had passed.
...
Southern Sea.
The sea was not calm at all. The waves were rushing, one after another. There were more waves than usual. The sea level was high as the waves kept hitting the stones.
Suddenly, along with a loud bang, a gigantic water pillar shot out from the sea. The already unstable sea rippled more wildly. The powerful wave was like a shield, rising from the surface of the sea. As it swirled, a shocking Qi started to engulf the entire sea.
“Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha...”
Under the sea, wild laughter came out from the Southern Sea Dragon Palace. The entire palace seemed to have been shaken up by this laughter. The vibration did not stop and all of the Southern Sea Dragons looked shocked. They all rushed to the dragon palace.
Vroom!
At the deep end of the dragon palace, a crystal door was instantly opened.
Following that, a gigantic black dragon shot out from inside. This dragon had black scales all over. It had five claws. Its dragon eyes flashes like lanterns. There was even a glow shooting out from its eyes like a torchlight.
Its dragon body moved. Instantly, the entire dragon palace vibrated even more vigorously.
Roar!
The Black Dragon roared. It seemed excited. With a roar, it shook up the entire Southern Sea. The water flew up to the sky without stopping. The majestic sight of dragon sucking water was seen everywhere.
Vroom!
The Black Dragon rushed out from the sea and shook up the sky. It released its Qi without holding anything back. Instantly, the space around it seemed to have been twisted. A powerful Qi started to form a swirl.
With another movement, it shot back into the sea. Its dragon tail flicked once and the vibration traveled from the Southern Sea to the Eastern Sea. The entire Eastern Sea Dragon Palace was shaken up, overwhelmed by the powerful Qi. This made the Eastern Sea Dragons very anxious.
At this moment, the Jade Emperor and Empress in the Heavenly Temple felt it, too. Their brows furrowed.
“Quasi-Saint?”
“It’s coming from the Southern Sea Dragon Palace. The Southern Sea Dragon King’s a Quasi-Saint?”
“Hopefully they can hold it back. If it joins in, we won’t have enough power on our side to fight.”
...
The Black Dragon rushed into the Southern Sea Dragon Palace. Its dragon body transformed into an elderly man dressed in black robes. His beard was long and he was laughing wildly.
Ao Feng instantly rushed over with his Southern Sea Dragons. They all greeted with excitement, “Congratulations, Dragon King! You’ve powered up and made the Southern Sea Dragons the most powerful of all demons!”
The other dragons knelt on one knee and said in unison, “Congratulations to Dragon King! You’ve powered up!”
The Southern Sea Dragon King laughed wildly, “Ha-ha-ha! The Dragon Soul Pearl’s indeed powerful. It contains our ancestors’ powers. It helped me breakthrough from Daluo Golden Immortal. Unfortunately, I wasn’t enlightened enough. However, when the time’s right, it’ll be easy for me to break through from here!”
The crowd praised, “Our Dragon King’s so powerful!”
The Southern Sea Dragon King glanced around and looked surprised. He then nodded with satisfaction, “Wow, you all have powered up quite a bit, too! Did something happen?”
The crowd jolted. Ao Shu said nonchalantly, “Nothing happened. We wanted the best for our Southern Sea Dragon Family, so we worked harder to cultivate.”
“Good!” The Southern Sea Dragon King instantly shot out light from his eyes. “Good job! Our family’s doing so well! Ha-ha-ha...”
The Southern Sea Dragon King laughed while the others laughed with him.
After a while, the Southern Sea Dragon King stopped and put on a serious face. He said, “I know about the matter. What do you all think about Lord Kunpeng’s plan?”
“I think it works!”
By the side, an elder said, “Now is the best time for our dragon family to get back on our feet. Why not join forces with Kunpeng to diminish our threat while making the demons stronger! Furthermore, we’ll focus on attacking the Eastern Sea. Once we get hold of it, it’ll just be a matter of time before we rule all four seas!”
“Yeah, I think so, too.” The Southern Sea Dragon King smiled. He seemed excited. He almost seemed impatient to attack right away.
Meanwhile, Ao Shu said loudly, “Dragon King, this act isn’t ideal!”
“Hmm?” The Southern Sea Dragon King frowned. He asked, “Why not?”
“Lord Kunpeng’s ambitious. We cannot join forces with him!” Ao Shu said with a pained and upset tone, “Lord Kunpeng thinks he’s the Lord of all demons, he thinks he’s just as powerful as our Dragon Ancestor. He looks down on the Southern Sea Dragons. His disciples always treat us coldly and arrogantly!”
The Southern Sea Dragon King’s eyes glinted. “Really? Kunpeng thinks so!?”
Meanwhile, Ao Feng stood up and said in a serious tone, “Dragon King, according to my analysis, Kunpeng’s trying to take over our Southern Sea Dragons!”
The Southern Sea Dragon King halted. “What do you mean?”
“Recently, I’ve been reading ‘Thirty-Six Tricks’. I learned a lot from it. I can tell right away that Kunpeng’s trying to use us for his own gain!” Ao Feng halted and said convincingly, “We’ll attack the Eastern Sea, but the Eastern Sea belongs to the Heavenly Temple now. In other words, we’d have to fight against the Heavenly Temple. If so, the Southern Sea Dragons will be harmed. The death of the Western Sea’s Black Eel is already a great example! Once Kunpeng gets rid of all of us, he’ll be the most powerful of all!”
“I see,” The Southern Sea Dragon King’s face sank. “How tricky! How dare Kunpeng try to frame me!?”
“King Father, I have a tactic. It’s called ‘Sit back and watch’!” Ao Feng smiled and said, “According to what I know, Kunpeng failed when trying to attack the Dog Demons and Nine-Tailed Fox. This is why he decided to join forces. Why don’t we sit back and watch them fight? At the end of it, we’ll profit from the gains effortlessly, isn’t that great?”
Ao Shu instantly clapped in shock. “Good idea! Good idea! Prince Ao Feng’s such a genius!”
Instantly, all of the Southern Sea Dragons nodded.
“Lord Kunpeng wants to use us against the Heavenly Temple. Dragon King, we cannot fall for it!”
“Prince Ao Feng’s right. Please, think it through!”
“We cannot attack, we mustn’t!”
...
Instantly, the Southern Sea Dragon King’s excitement vanished. He looked at how excited his dragons were and started doubting his life.
It seemed that all of them were against this. This showed that this plan could not work. He instantly made a decision and said, “Since you’re all the best dragons of mine, I know you wish the best for us. Of course, I won’t take action!
“Ao Feng’s right, Kunpeng’s ambitious. We can’t let him use us! If he wants to attack the Heavenly Temple, he should do it on his own! We’ll sit back and watch while profiting from the gains effortlessly! Isn’t that great?”
“Dragon King’s clever!”
At the same time.
At the Kirin Cliff.
The Demon King stood at the edge of the cliff and looked down at his kirins. He said in a low voice, “You’re all right. Now that the Southern Sea Dragon King’s so powerful, Lord Kunpeng’s realm is even more powerful. Us kirins mustn’t be harmed again. We mustn’t get involved blindly. Pass on my order, we’ll sit back and watch. Don’t get involved!”
“Demon King’s clever!”
...
Two days had passed. In the Immortal Realm, 10,000 demons had gathered somewhere.
Lord Kunpeng, with his face sharp like a knife and his beard long and narrowed, stood on a platform.
Beside him, a well-built pig demon was reporting back to him. The more Kunpeng listened to it, the darker his face turned. Finally, his face was dark as ink, his mouth slightly twitching.
“Nonsense! Nonsense!”
His eyes glinted. He yelled out loud, “Are they all pigs!? This is the best time to strengthen the demons! And yet, they want to stay out of it!?”
Since there were so many powerful demons, they could wipe out everything including the Heavenly Temple if they joined forces! This is such a great opportunity! After that, the demons can rule over the world! How great was that!
“Dragons, phoenixes, and kirins are indeed unreliable. Back then, they fought for power and almost went into extinction. The demons haven’t even grown back fully and they’re already having internal conflicts?”
Meanwhile, the Pig Demon by the side could not help saying, “Lord, of course, they’re not pigs. If they’re pigs I would’ve made them come work for you!”
“Get lost! Pass on my words, we’re going out now!”
