Blackwater Alliance was a super power in the southern ocean.
This alliance gathered many sects and families, with more than twenty Life and Death Kings and nearly ten half-step Kings. Although ordinary fifth grade sects had Life and Death Kings, they might not necessarily have half-step Kings. It was clear that Blackwater Alliance not only had many top experts, but also many lower level ones.
The headquarters of Blackwater Alliance was a huge black island. There were more than twenty palaces on the island, and at the center of the island were four main palaces.
In one of the main palaces, Yin Sky King's brows creased.
"You're saying that your leader wants to increase the distribution of Zhen Yuan crystals?" Yin Sky King looked down at the Chaotic Demon Ocean Emissary.
This Chaos Demon Sea Emissary was a Demonic Human King. He raised his head and spoke in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, "The Blackwater Alliance occupies a treasure land like the Devouring Island. Every year, they produce twenty to thirty million Zhen Yuan Crystals, but only three million is a bit too little for my Chaos Demon Sea. My Patriarch said that every year, she wants six million, not one less."
The Yin Sky King said with a serious face, "The devouring island produces twenty to thirty million Zhen yuan crystals every year, but our Black Water Alliance can only keep ten million of them. The rest have been distributed to the Life and Death Realm warriors who know about it. We have more than twenty Life and Death Realm warriors, so if we split it evenly, each of us would not get more than five hundred thousand Zhen yuan crystals. Besides that, our Black Water Alliance still has to use millions of Zhen yuan crystals to attract more warriors. If we don't do that, then the Zhen yuan crystal production will decrease. In this way, it would be good enough for each of us to get three hundred thousand Zhen yuan crystals.
Although Yin Sky King said this, the Blackwater Alliance's Zhen Yuan crystals every year were definitely more than ten million. Moreover, the Blackwater Alliance still had a large amount of Zhen Yuan crystals in storage. After all, the Devouring Island had existed for many years. Accumulating a bit every year, the amount of Zhen Yuan crystals accumulated would be astonishing. Of course, this storage was only for emergencies and couldn't be used easily.
The Chaotic Demon Sea Emissary said with a solemn expression, "Then, why did you give Old Red Water five million True Essence Crystals? My Patriarch is a Titled Monarch, but he only gave three million. Is your Blackwater Alliance looking down on my Patriarch and my Chaotic Demon Sea's Demonic Human Clan?"
"Where did you hear this?"
The Yin Heavenly King's eyes flickered several times.
Red Water Old Monster was a titled monarch, and just like the Demon Flower Emperor, he knew about the Devouring Island. In order to seal their mouths, the Blackwater Alliance had to send out a large number of Zhen Yuan crystals every year. The Demon Flower Emperor received three million, while the Red Water Old Monster received five million. The reason why the Red Water Old Monster received more was that he had agreed to be the backing of the Blackwater Alliance.
Originally, they had been living in harmony, but they did not know how the Demon Flower Emperor knew the specific number of Zhen Yuan crystals they had given to the Red Water Old Monster. Could it be the Red Water Old Monster? Not likely, Redwater Old Monster had no need to show off in front of the Demon Flower Emperor, he could just be happy in secret, who would be stupid enough to tell others about his wealth?
"If you don't want people to know, don't do it."
The Chaos Demon Sea Emissary sneered.
Yin Sky King was furious in his heart, but he did not show it on his face, and said expressionlessly, "This matter needs to be discussed in detail, but adding three million is too much. Go back and tell your patriarch, at most add two million, just like the Red Water Old Monster, three million. Alright, you can go back and report. Forgive me for not seeing you off."
"The next one to come will be my patriarch."
The Chaos Demon Sea Emissary did not linger, and walked out of the main palace, soaring into the void, and rushing towards the Chaos Demon Sea.
Pa!
As soon as the Chaos Demon Sea Emissary left, Yin Sky King coldly snorted and smashed the armrest with a palm strike, "Preposterous! Demon Flower Emperor, don't be too happy just yet. Although my Blackwater Alliance is not as powerful as your Chaos Demon Sea, we can make friends with titled monarchs. South Sea Demon God Cult Leader, South Sea Black Fiend Island Leader, and South Sea Alliance Leader. These three are already cooperating with my Blackwater Alliance. Adding Red Water Old Monster, and my Blackwater Old Ancestor who has just broken through, we have a total of five titled monarchs. No matter how powerful you are, you won't be able to resist.
At that time, you won't even get a single Zhen Yuan crystal. "Yin Sky King hated the Demon Flower Emperor so much not only because of the Demon Flower Emperor's high demands, but also because he knew that the Demon Flower Emperor and Xuanhou had attacked Terminator Demon Sect. Ye Chen had embezzled more than two million Zhen Yuan crystals from the Blackwater Alliance. Yin Sky King had always wanted to kill him, but had always failed. Later on, when he planned to personally take action, Ye Chen had already entered Life and Death realm, and his battle strength was even higher than his.
As for the Blackwater Alliance's cooperation with the South Sea Demon God Cult Leader, South Sea Black Fiend Island Leader, and South Sea Alliance Leader, it was not because they had too many Zhen Yuan crystals, but because the great calamity of the foreign races was imminent. All the monarchs in Elysium were thinking of ways to increase their strength and preserve themselves.

Of course, the Blackwater Alliance's annual production of Zhen Yuan crystals was limited. Cooperating with three monarchs at once would be very strenuous for the Blackwater Alliance. Therefore, they had already decided to kick out the Demon Flower Emperor, and divide the Zhen Yuan crystals of the Demon Flower Emperor to the three monarchs. This way, things would be a bit easier.

Meanwhile, the Yin Sky King and the Chaotic Demon Ocean Emissary's proposal of adding two million Zhen Yuan crystals was only a delaying tactic. After all, it was still not the right time to turn against the Demon Flower Emperor. They would have to wait until the time was right.
"Ye Chen, you have the Demon Flower Emperor and Xuanhou to protect you, but my Blackwater Alliance has five monarchs. Sooner or later, I'll make you spit out everything you've eaten."
Yin Sky King sneered.
…
On his way, Ye Chen stopped a random Sea of Soul realm expert and found out where the headquarters of the Blackwater Alliance was located. On the second day, Ye Chen arrived in the sky above the huge black island.
On this huge black island, there were more than twenty palaces, with four main palaces in the center. In the sky above the island, there were several kinds of great arrays. Among them, there was one that Ye Chen could recognize at a glance, because it was the Water and Earth Interlocking Great Array.
"Being able to occupy a treasure land like the Devouring Island … I can't look down on them indeed."
Whether a force was powerful or not could be seen from the arrays.
"Who dares to come to my Blackwater Alliance!"
Ye Chen's arrival was open and aboveboard. On the island, a figure soared into the sky. It was a Life and Death King that Ye Chen had never seen before.
"I'm Ye Chen, and I have something to discuss with the leader of your Blackwater Alliance."
Ye Chen was not a bandit, so it was impossible for him to rob the moment he arrived. Moreover, he had no idea where the Blackwater Alliance's Zhen Yuan crystal storage was.
"Our leader has gone on a long journey, but the deputy leader, Yin Sky King, is here. I'll go inform him."
Blackwater Alliance had no enmity with Ye Chen. At most, they had tricked him into the Devouring Island. The only one who had enmity with Ye Chen was Yin Sky King. Of course, Ye Chen still didn't know that Yin Sky King had been sending people to kill him.
Upon hearing Ye Chen's name, this Life and Death King was greatly astonished. Ye Chen having the strength of a peak King was no longer news. Moreover, he was proficient in the space profound. Even the Black Dragon Old Ancestor couldn't do anything to him. Since the other party had come to pay a visit, he couldn't possibly refuse. Otherwise, if the other party got angry, he might not be able to bear the consequences, which would be bad for him.
"Alright."
Ye Chen wasn't in a hurry.
Not long after, two people flew over. One of them was Yin Sky King.
Yin Sky King didn't reveal anything on his face. He only acted as if this was his first time dealing with Ye Chen. He smiled faintly and said, "I've long heard of your great name. Now that I've seen you, you truly live up to your reputation."
Ye Chen didn't waste any time and said, "Blackwater Alliance, you should be able to make decisions, right?"
Yin Sky King stared blankly for a moment, "I can make decisions for most things."
"Alright, your Blackwater Alliance will provide me with three million Zhen Yuan crystals every year. Treat it as a fee to keep your mouth shut." Ye Chen went straight to the point.
These words immediately petrified the other two.
Yin Sky King yelled inwardly, 'Ye Chen, you're going too far! I didn't ask you for Zhen Yuan crystals, but you're asking for an exorbitant price! Truly infuriating!'
Concealing his emotions well, Yin Sky King said awkwardly, "I can't make the decision on this matter. I'll have to wait for Alliance Leader to return. How about this, you stay on a nearby island for now. Alliance Leader will be back soon."
Yin Sky King had a sinister plan. This time, Alliance Leader Black Water Old Ancestor had gone on a long journey to invite South Shallow Sea Alliance's Alliance Leader. He would return at a later date, so he would have Ye Chen wait and walk right into the trap. With Black Water Old Ancestor and South Shallow Sea Alliance Leader's strength, Ye Chen wouldn't be able to escape even if he grew wings. However, before that, he had to make Ye Chen stay willingly. Such an opportunity was extremely rare.
"When will your Alliance Leader return?"
Ye Chen asked.
"Tomorrow at the latest."
Yin Sky King answered.
"In that case, I'll stay here for now." Ye Chen didn't waste time with the other party. Around the huge black island, there were some buildings built on some islands. Ye Chen directly found an uninhabited island and flew over. He would come back tomorrow to collect the Zhen Yuan crystals. At that time, Blackwater Alliance would have no choice but to pay up. Previously, he had been tricked into Devouring Island and chased several times. How could this debt be settled so easily? Three million a year was very fair.
Watching Ye Chen choose an island to stay on, Yin Sky King's expression was incomparably cold. 'Ye Chen, even if you don't die tomorrow, you'll lose a layer of skin. If you want to blame something, blame yourself for being too greedy.'
"Let's go back."
Yin Sky King returned to his main palace.
