Using her Spirit Wandering technique, Long Xueyi found the location of the Hell Messenger after an hour and a half.
"That guy is on a huge island!" Long Xueyi said, "Many Celestial Lords are flattering the Hell Messenger and trying to learn your location through him. They're all serving him on that island, capturing some Celestial Monarchs and feeding them to the Messenger for his spirit essence extraction."
Shen Xiang coldly chuckled, "These Celestial Lords are really looking for a way to prolong their lives by trying to hunt me down! That Hell Messenger definitely won't tell them that the bald guy is already dead, fearing that it might scare away these cheap servants."
He observed the scene from a picture transmitted by Long Xueyi. The pale-faced man was sitting on a platform, with numerous Celestial Lords供奉 below him; tied-up human-shaped Celestial Monarchs were placed beneath the platform.
In the vast North Sea of the Nine Profound Heavens, hundreds of Celestial Lords had gathered here, capturing over a thousand Celestial Monarchs. Even though they were human-shaped, Long Xueyi could tell that many of them were actually sea beasts.
"This is a great opportunity!" According to Long Xueyi's provided location, Shen Xiang began mobilizing spatial power to prepare for precise teleportation.
...
In the island where the Hell Messenger was located, festivities and laughter filled the air. Numerous Celestial Lords were gathering for a feast with extravagant celebrations. The Hell Messenger was sitting on the platform like an emperor and making strange laughter, drinking with everyone else in a lively atmosphere. The tied-up Celestial Monarchs were laying on the ground, all of them looking dismayed as their spirit essences would soon be consumed.
"Demon Messenger, this Celestial Monarch is the renowned King Pearl in the Nine Profound Heavens. It's a big pearl deep below the sea," an old man said while holding onto the beautiful face of a young maiden. He laughed loudly, "A single tear from this woman is worth millions of sacred stones! Her tears not only keep women youthful, but they also heal external injuries quickly; she's highly valuable."
"How is her spirit essence" asked the Hell Messenger in a chilling voice, as his only way of strengthening was by consuming others' spirit essences.
The King Pearl, who was now full of despair, had empty and lifeless eyes. Her entire body was bound by special ropes, preventing her from changing back to her original form.
"Her spirit essence is definitely great, Demon Messenger," the old man hurriedly said.
"Very well. Bring her up, and I'll taste her!" The Hell Messenger rubbed his hands and chuckled menacingly.
The old man brought the beautiful King Pearl to him. Though she appeared as a young maiden, she had been in deep sea cultivation for tens of thousands of years. If not for being in slumber for her cultivation, she would have been caught by the Hell Messenger already.
"If I'm satisfied, I'll tell you where Shen Xiang is," the Hell Messenger laughed loudly. The chilling laughter made everyone shiver.
When the Hell Messenger was laughing wildly, he tried stabbing his withered claws towards King Pearl's head but found himself suddenly grabbed by a strong hand. The hand閃爍ed with holy light.
The King Pearl, who had lost all hope, saw this hand as a glimmer of hope.
"There's no need for you to tell him, I've already arrived," Shen Xiang cheerfully said. He slammed the Magic Suppression Tower in his hands, which had transformed into a cudgel, onto the Hell Messenger's head. The impact caused a sharp cry and blood to erupt from his head.
"Shen Xiang!" The Hell Messenger tried to escape from Shen Xiang's grasp, but his full of Magic Suppression power hand acted like a manacle meant to imprison demons, locking him tightly.
"I didn't expect you'd come," Shen Xiang smiled, putting the enlarged Magic Suppression Tower over Hell Messenger's head.
The Magic Suppression Tower emitted holy light, and a golden vortex appeared at its base, sucking the demon with his evil powers into it.
"Snow Ying, don't let those scumbags escape. Capture them all!"
After putting the Hell Messenger into the Magic Suppression Tower, Shen Xiang sat on the throne that the Hell Messenger had been sitting on. He waved his hand, releasing the bound King Pearl.
The once terrified Celestial Monarchs were overjoyed when they saw Shen Xiang release King Pearl. They wouldn't be absorbed into the Hell Messenger's soul essence anymore!
It wasn't easy to grow as a Celestial Monarch, and none of them wanted to die. Shen Xiang's presence made them greatly grateful, wanting to immediately kneel and thank him.
Long Xueyi flew out from Shen Xiang, standing in mid-air. She was graceful and pretty, giving off a chilling dragon roar that shook all present Celestial Monarchs to their core.
The fear this dragon roar instilled into the Celestial Monarchs was even greater than their fear of death!
Even the Celestial Lords were shocked. They never expected that this beautiful white-dress wearing woman would be a terrifying Heaven Dragon!
When the Hell Messenger was captured by Shen Xiang, his black ancient dragon mount hurriedly arrived. However, Long Xueyi's roar crashed through the air and shattered his black bone dragon into dust.
All Celestial Lords were dumbfounded. The Hell Messenger was quickly caught by someone, and his formidable-looking black bone dragon mount vanished instantly. Now they realized how foolish they were to try and learn where Shen Xiang was or hunt him down in the hopes of obtaining a God Rank. The sight of Shen Xiang's strength showed them an unimaginable fear.
Long Xueyi surveyed the hundreds of Celestial Lords, letting out a cold hum. Her white dress danced and emitted gentle holy radiance. The whiteness of her light shone on the Celestial Lords, turning them into small white dragons like ropes that bound everyone together.
Long Xueyi is a Heaven Dragon Imperial, although she doesn't possess her peak power from the past, she's still more than capable of dealing with these Celestial Lords.
After the Celestial Lords were subdued, they all begged for mercy. However, Shen Xiang ignored them and tossed the Magic Suppression Tower into the air, hovering above the Celestial Lords before collecting all of them inside.
Then, Long Xueyi helped the Celestial Monarchs release themselves!
"Thank you, Senior Shen for saving us!" The King Pearl hurriedly expressed gratitude to Shen Xiang. Other Celestial Monarchs quickly followed, all thanking him and asking how they could repay him.
Shen Xiang modestly said, "I'm sorry that being captured by me might have played a role in this situation, so I can't claim saving you all."
"If not for Senior Shen, these guys would have captured us anyway. I'm willing to follow you from now on," said a big man, hoping his help could be of use.
These Celestial Monarchs weren't fools; they knew Shen Xiang's reputation—the many divine lords chasing him, standing up against the Eagle King, and his strong Heaven Dragon companion. Following Shen Xiang could be a good thing despite the current situation not being great for him.
"Senior Shen, I'm willing to follow you too," said the light voice of the King Pearl.
Shen Xiang looked at these Celestial Monarchs, over a thousand of them were present, but only four females were beautiful.
"Let her decide this one. She might need someone to accompany her," Shen Xiang looked at the side and said to Long Xueyi.
Long Xueying stuck out her tongue and laughed, "If you don't mind, you can follow me."
As the king of beasts among creatures, especially if it's Long Xueying—a Heaven Dragon Imperial, King Pearl was very happy. Seeing Long Xueying take in the King Pearl, the other three female Celestial Monarchs all approached.
Long Xueying took them all, as there weren't many anyway. Other Celestial Monarchs were jealous of not being female!
"Seniors, I have a request. I'm searching for divine grade Seven Refinement藥材and was wondering if you know of any leads or if anyone has these divine medicines, I could borrow them and return them quickly!" This was Shen Xiang's true purpose for saving these thousand Celestial Monarchs.t be better because they both had some secrets to share and living together wouldn’t be bad."Um… you’ve developed to that level of relationship" Luo Tianjun was very surprised and hesitated, then he c...
