Chapter 1012: Mu Qingtong’s Scheme Against Xia Feng
If it were two days ago, the Golden Sparrow Flower would have needed the Sin Legion’s reinforcements to face Burning Heaven.
But now, with Hua Shen having recovered her True God rank, she no longer needs any help.
Unless Burning Heaven’s Destruction Star God personally intervenes, the Golden Sparrow Flower has nothing to fear.
The only issue is that with the Golden Sparrow Flower family acting so perfidiously, their reputation will only worsen in the future.
However, this has nothing to do with Xia Feng; it’s not his reputation being tarnished.
He is currently a victim, inexplicably abducted by Hua Shen.
“Hua Shen of the Golden Sparrow Flower, why did she call you Master?” Emperor Zhaoyue, who witnessed everything, was bewildered. Just now, Xia Feng had whipped the Woman in Phoenix Dress like a dog, and she had called him Master.
Was this the Hua Shen she remembered?
In ten thousand years, Emperor Zhaoyue had only met this Mother of the Golden Sparrow Flower twice. Although she didn’t know her well, she couldn’t possibly be like this, could she?
Xia Feng glanced at Emperor Zhaoyue and frowned. Hiss, how come that bitch Hua didn’t obscure this Imperial Concubine’s vision and perception just now?
His gaze was unfriendly as he smiled, “Your Highness the Imperial Concubine, you’d best keep this to yourself!”
“.”
Emperor Zhaoyue pursed her lips and nodded silently, “Don’t worry, besides the Dragon Locking Well, I’m not interested in anything else. Moreover, I am now your subordinate.”
Although she said this, she was still secretly vigilant. This surnamed Xia is indeed terrifying. He has already secretly taken Hua Shen as a female slave, and in this way, the super clan of the Golden Sparrow Flower has also indirectly become a puppet in his hands.
Seeing this, Xia Feng said nothing further but frowned and sank his consciousness.
[Mu Qingtong has completed the overall analysis of ‘Holy Dragon Judgment’ and comprehended Holy Dragon Judgment: Heart Demon Tribulation Fire—]
[You have learned Heart Demon Tribulation Fire, synchronization failed—]
The synchronization information had been stuck at this progress for a long time, but Miss Mu’s message had not yet come through the Dao Fruit, which made him worried.
Fortunately, at this moment, the Dao Fruit vibrated.
“I’ve escaped. This time, I have you to thank.” Miss Mu’s cold, clear voice sounded. “Not bad, Mr. Xia. How do you want me to reward you?”
Her tone was calm, but there was always a sense of condescension, as if teasing a dog. Xia Feng twitched the corner of his lips, “Heh heh~ Really, Miss Mu? Then, after we rendezvous later, can you arch your backside and shake it at me a few times?”
On the bloody earth, the Black-dressed Woman walked through a sea of hellfire littered with corpses. She flicked the bloodstains from her knife as her silver high heels ascended step by step. The silent world seemed to have only the crisp clicking sound of her heels on the stone steps.
She thought with a faint smile, “Since you don’t want a reward, then forget it. Where shall we meet?”
“Eternal Flow Sea, between the Third and Second Great Areas.” Xia Feng stored the spatial coordinates into the Dao Fruit. “We’ll meet here, and then you’ll accompany me somewhere to rescue Teacher Freya.”
“Teacher Freya?” Her silver high heels landed before the space gate, her elegant black dress fluttering like a butterfly in the wind. Mu Qingtong turned her head to look down at the endless bloody world below the layers of blood-red stairs. Her golden eyes were indifferent, and her tone was surprised, “What happened to Freya?”
“I’ll explain when we get there. For now, tell me, what is the use of the Epic God Relic, Killing Tribulation Stone, that you snatched, and why did it cause such a commotion?”
Mu Qingtong casually explained, “According to the information gathered by my subordinates, the Killing Tribulation Stone has an important use in the Fourth Divine Treasury.”
“The Fourth Divine Treasury again? So, what use?”
“I don’t know.”
“?” Xia Feng was startled, “You don’t know, yet you risked everything to snatch it?”
“Is there a problem?”
“.” Xia Feng narrowed his black eyes. Indeed, there was no problem. It was better to get the treasure first; it would definitely be useful in the Fourth Divine Treasury, but… he felt something was not quite right.
Based on his acute experience fighting witches multiple times, he vaguely sensed that Mu Qingtong was hiding something from him regarding the Killing Tribulation Stone.
Logically speaking, he and Miss Mu often clashed, but they never deceived each other on important matters and had always trusted each other.
Unless this matter was aimed at her! Xia Feng’s black pupils contracted almost imperceptibly, and he suddenly understood.
Just as he had previously wanted to secretly obtain Gui Xu Meng Yan to suppress Miss Mu!
Then, Miss Mu was likely using the Killing Tribulation Stone to suppress him, Xia Feng!
That was why she had been evasive when he asked some questions before.
At that time, Xia Feng hadn’t noticed anything amiss. Now that he thought about it, Miss Mu had originally planned to obtain the Killing Tribulation Stone secretly herself, but in the end, she still encountered difficulties and had to ask him for help out of desperation.
Heh heh~ Xia Feng mused thoughtfully, Miss Mu, oh Miss Mu, you’re still not careful enough!
The Killing Tribulation Stone…
“Mr. Xia, I have learned the Heart Demon Tribulation Fire from the Holy Dragon Judgment you gave me. Using the Heart Demon Tribulation Fire, I transferred the uncontrollable killing desire into spirit materials and transformed it into tribulation fire, thereby regaining my sanity and escaping the perilous situation.”
Hearing Mu Qingtong’s explanation, which seemed to be a change of topic, Xia Feng smiled slightly, “Oh~ That’s good.”
For the next two days, Xia Feng and Emperor Zhaoyue were on their way.
As for the Sumeru Realm, if those forces sent spirit material resources, Cha Nai Xue could handle it; he didn’t need to worry about it.
The only thing Xia Feng needed to be wary of was Calamity.
The bitch Hua said that if Calamity could help her dispel the Calamity Contract, she would hand Xia Feng over to Calamity.
But if the Calamity Contract could not be dispelled, the cooperation would naturally fail.
The bitch Hua also said that Kikyō Sayame was actually Calamity’s avatar playing in the mortal world. Before Kikyō Sayame disappeared, she had left a fierce threat, saying she would come back to play with Daddy.
Xia Feng really couldn’t understand Calamity’s purpose, but he was too lazy to think about it.
Soon, he and Emperor Zhaoyue arrived at the Su Luo Sea area between the Second and Third Great Areas.
The airship passed through the azure sea currents and landed on a desolate cloud platform.
“Miss Mu, I’ve brought someone with me. Remember to disguise yourself when you arrive.”
“Who?”
“Emperor Zhaoyue.”
“You did it with her too?”
“???” Xia Feng’s eyelids twitched, “Tsk, Mu Qingtong, what kind of person do you think I, Xia Feng, am!”
Very displeased, was he, Xia Feng, a gentleman, someone so casual!
“Heh~” A cold, unclear laugh sounded in his ears. Xia Feng pretended not to hear it and simply explained the cooperative deal with Emperor Zhaoyue and the matter of the Dragon Locking Well.
However, Mu Qingtong’s focus was peculiar, “She is your subordinate now?”
“Is there a problem?” Xia Feng raised an eyebrow, “Humph, humph, Miss Mu, aren’t you jealous? Jealous that I have such a powerful subordinate!”
As he was speaking, the azure sea currents in the distance rippled.
Xia Feng stood above the airship, looking up, and whispered, “Emperor Zhaoyue, this person who can help you unlock the Dragon Locking Well has a temper that’s as eccentric as yours. You have a request from her now, so remember to control your temper.”
“You’re the one with an eccentric temper.” Emperor Zhaoyue stood beside him, her fox-grey pupils narrowed, and she did not reply.
As the azure sea currents rippled, they suddenly became tinged with purple, condensing into a crystalline form. The Black-dressed Woman walked out from within.
To Xia Feng’s surprise, Miss Mu was not wearing a mask to disguise herself.
Her silver hair fluttered in the wind, and the purple light around her was like a monstrous demonic flame. Her exquisitely beautiful face was gentle and serene, her temperament elegant, and her gaze fell upon the two below.
However, she wasn’t looking at Xia Feng, but at the black and white female figure beside him.
Their cold golden eyes and fox-grey vertical pupils met across the distance.
