On the way to the Nine Head Clan, Chu Kuangren held in his hand a drawing that he bought from a hawker. On the drawing was a strange snake with nine heads, and its ferocious appearance sent chills down the spines of anyone who saw it.
"An ancient wild beast, the Nine-Headed Snakelet!"
"Rumor has it that this wild beast is good at controlling fire and water. Ha, I didn't expect the Nine Head Clan to worship such a wild beast. Interesting."
Chu Kuangren smiled.
Beside him, Lan Yu also looked at the drawing curiously.
"How ugly. It's not as pretty as Lil Red," Lan Yu said.
"Of course. One is an auspicious divine beast while the other is a wild beast. There's no comparison. However, this Nine-Headed Snakelet is not to be underestimated either. If we were to rank it according to its bloodline, the Nine-Headed Snakelet is second only to the divine beasts."
Chu Kuangren said.
Then, he looked at the barren Daoist Prefecture. "We're only three hundred kilometers away from the Black Water Prefecture where the Nine Head Clan is."
"Let's go. We should be there by today."
…
Inside a tent in the Nine Head Clan.
"Everyone, once Young Master Li awakens the Nine-Headed Snakelet, we'll be able to conquer the Daoist Prefecture!" The Nine Head Clan Leader was enjoying wine and meat as he talked about the bright future with the elders.
The rest of the elders were also excited.
Boom.
At that moment, a thunderous roar came from outside.
Dark clouds gathered and a storm descended from the sky.
"D * mn it, I've had enough of this sh * tty place. It's always raining torrents and floods." One of the elders snorted.
Hearing his words, the rest of the elders also looked at him with disdain.
Although this was the place where they grew up, they had no nostalgia for this place. All they felt was disdain.
"As long as we conquer the Royal Azure Dynasty, the vast Daoist Prefecture will be ours. By then, we can get whatever resources we want."
"That's right. This is all thanks to the Young Master. It's all thanks to his foresight that we could get the Nine-Headed Snakelet Pearl from him."
"I can't wait to have some fun at the Royal Azure Dynasty Palace."
The elders laughed heartily.
At that moment, a member of the Nine Head Clan rushed into the tent.
That person was panicking and his eyes were filled with fear as he said, "Clan Leader, bad news."
"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
"Chu Kuangren is here!"
Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this.
"Why is he here? Wait, is he here because of Gu Changge?" The Nine Head Clan Leader's expression froze.
Only then did he and the other elders remember that Chu Kuangren was not only the Black Heaven Sect's Sect Leader, but he was also Linglong's husband. He was also the King Consort of the Royal Azure Dynasty, which meant that he had countless ties with the Royal Azure Dynasty.
"Come, let's go meet this Chu Kuangren!"
The Nine Head Clan Leader said after a moment of silence.
They walked out of the tent.
Within the torrential downpour, two people stood there. One was a man and one was a woman. Both of them were peerless geniuses. Around them, there was an invisible barrier that easily blocked out all the rain.
The ground was covered with muddy water, the sky was raining, and the wind was howling.
On the other hand, these two people were untainted by even a speck of dust. It was as if they were isolated from the world. They stood aloof from the world and were breathtaking.
A strange look flashed across the Nine Head Clan Leader's eyes. He then slowly walked towards Chu Kuangren and Linglong and said with a smile, "Sect Leader Chu, your presence brings light to our humble Nine Head Clan!"
"Alright, I'll skip the pleasantries. Hand over Gu Changge and the Nine-Headed Snakelet Pearl," Chu Kuangren said.
The Nine Head Clan Leader was taken aback. "Sect Leader Chu, what are you talking about? Gu Changge is the Royal Azure Dynasty's Crown Prince. Why would he be here? And what's the Nine-Headed Snakelet Pearl? "
"You can't hide the truth by pretending to be ignorant. I advise you to hand it over before I decide to be rough with you," Ling Yun said.
"Sect Leader Chu, I'm really …"
Before the Nine Head Clan Leader could finish his sentence, an inexplicable chill appeared amidst the torrential rain and enveloped half of the Nine Head Clan's settlement.
"I'm running out of patience. Please speak cautiously, Clan Leader."
Chu Kuangren said.
The rain was loud and Chu Kuangren's voice was not loud, but the Nine Head Clan Leader could hear him clearly. At that moment, his heart turned cold and he felt as if the blood in his body was about to freeze.
"Sect Leader Chu, don't you think you're being a little too overbearing by forcing the Nine Head Clan to hand it over?" At that moment, an old voice could be heard.
An old man suddenly appeared in the void. This old man was wearing a robe, and he stared at Chu Kuangren with a displeased look on his face.
Chu Kuangren glanced at him.
He was the Sage of the Nine Head Clan, a Third-Step Sage.
Then, Chu Kuangren slowly raised his arm, and a majestic Buddhist Light formed into a giant golden palm that slammed towards the old man.
The rainwater was blasted apart by that attack, turning into a mist that filled the sky.
"What!"
The old man's expression changed. He did not expect Chu Kuangren to attack so suddenly. Caught off guard, he quickly channeled his spiritual power to gather the rainwater around him and formed a giant water pillar that smashed towards him.
The two energies collided!
Then, the water pillar was shattered by the giant golden palm, and the violent energy swept out and landed on the old man's body.
In an instant, the old man was sent flying and landed heavily on the ground. His clean robe was stained with muddy water. A Sage like him looked like a beggar by the roadside.
"Chu Kuangren, you've gone too far!"
The Nine Head Clan Leader said angrily.
However, as soon as he said that, a powerful Sword-based Daoist Rhyme spread out and enveloped the sky above the Nine Head Clan.
Everyone in the Nine Head Clan, including the Clan Leader and the Sages, felt their scalps go numb. Under the influence of that Daoist Rhyme, the rainwater around them seemed to have turned into sharp blades that could slice them into pieces at any moment!
"I've told you that I'm running out of patience. If you dare to utter another word, you won't be able to live even if the Nine Head Clan has nine heads. I'll ask you again, where's Gu Changge and the Nine-Headed Snakelet Pearl?!"
Chu Kuangren said coldly.
The Nine Head Clan Leader and the Sages who were lying on the ground were so furious that their mouths twitched. However, there was nothing they could do.
Too domineering, this person was really too domineering!
Annihilating the Nine Head Clan?!
How could he say something like that!
However, the Nine Head Clan Leader did not doubt that Chu Kuangren was capable of such a thing.
Chu Kuangren had wreaked havoc in the Deep Sea Scaled Tribe, and the Nine Head Clan was far weaker than the Deep Sea Scaled Tribe.
How could they possibly stand up to Chu Kuangren?
"The Nine-Headed Snakelet Pearl and Gu Changge did come to the Nine Head Clan, but they're no longer here," the Nine Head Clan Leader said.
He had given in to Chu Kuangren.
"Oh, where did they go?"
"The Black Swamp!" The Nine Head Clan Leader gritted his teeth and said.
"Why did they go there?"
"To help the Young Master revive the Nine-Headed Snakelet Lord!"
Chu Kuangren was surprised. "Revive the Nine-Headed Snakelet Lord? Are you saying that they're going to revive the Nine-Headed Snakelet?"
"That's right."
The Nine Head Clan Leader then explained everything.
It turned out that an empyrean walker had recently arrived in the Nine Head Clan, and this empyrean walker also had the bloodline of the Nine Head Clan!
This was because he had become the Young Master of the Nine Head Clan. In order to revive the Nine-Headed Snakelet, he had bribed Gu Changge, who had been dispirited in the Royal Azure Dynasty, to steal the legendary Nine-Headed Snakelet Pearl for him …
