Chapter 187: Turmoil in the Fishing Village on the Magic Continent 9
“Demon King Lord, whether I was being clever or not, the appearance of the Fish Monsters polluted the water source, which is why you appeared. That’s not me talking nonsense.”
Xue You snorted coldly, “Who came for these damned things? I came because I smelled the vibrant magic of the roses!”
“Is it because the magic array was incomplete that the scent leaked out?”
Xue You just looked at her without speaking. Sang Chu thought to herself: It seems the magic array in this small fishing village is worse than imagined, unable to even conceal the scent. If that’s the case, then he already knew about the Fish Monsters and stood by idly, which would make things even easier.
Sang Chu’s lips curved slightly, a calculating smile flashing across her face: “I see, then it was indeed me being clever. I thought, given the Demon King Lord’s concern for the Mermaid Clan, you would come for these Fish Monsters.”
“Hmph, no need to test me. Since Mermaid Island has disappeared, my promise to them is fulfilled. Since you’re taking the remaining mermaids, take me along as well.”
The arrogant Xue You looked at Sang Chu with intense eyes. Sang Chu didn’t expect this, an unexpected bonus?
Sang Chu: “Demon King Lord, I, I can’t take things that don’t belong to me. You this…”
Xue You threw five pure gold cards with black borders at her: “These are Black Gold Cards, the highest-level Magic Cards. One of them has my blood on it. You can directly contract it and then take me with you.”
Sang Chu looked at the cards in her hand, then at Xue You: “The Demon King Lord wants to leave the Land of Ice and Snow with my help?”
Xue You: “That’s right. Due to the contract with Mermaid Island, I’ve been locked in the Ice Snow Maze for millions of years. Since you’re not from this world, you won’t be afraid of being hunted by other Demon Kings after I escape. Furthermore, you have Hellhounds, so I doubt anyone would dare to make a move against you.”
Sang Chu: “…” I’ll thank you to death!
“Demon King Lord, if I want to leave the Magic Continent, I first need to go to Rose Town in Rose City. It will probably take some time. Are you sure you want to leave with me?”
Xue You: “Certain. Where the mermaids are, I am. Stop the nonsense and hurry. If it’s too late, those old guys will find out.”
Sang Chu wasn’t one to shy away from trouble. With a powerful weapon like Xue You, the mutated plant in the Apocalypse was no match.
“Alright, since the Demon King Lord thinks highly of me, Sang Chu will not refuse.”
She cleanly cut her finger and dripped blood onto the card. A vast pressure then descended, and Xue You quickly waved a magic array to defend.
“Have the Hellhounds eat it!”
Xue You’s voice was a little urgent. Sang Chu didn’t ask further, patted the head of another Hellhound: “Go.”
It flew out instantaneously and bit through whatever Xue You was fighting.
‘Crunch—crunch—’
After a round of chewing, Sang Chu realized that Xue You was covered in chains, and these chains were made of Magic Stones!
These were the same things that had previously bound Yun Na. Xue You had them on his hands, legs, neck, and waist. It was unknown where they were connected, and the vast pressure that had just descended came from these chains.
Now that they were broken, Xue You was instantly free. He smiled slightly: “Old man, this is the price for deceiving me. You didn’t protect my homeland and caused my Mermaid Clan to be almost wiped out. Today, I’ll settle both old and new scores!”
With that, his hands ignited with massive magic arrays. Within the arrays, an old man with white hair appeared, his entire body covered in blood from the backlash of the chains.
Xue You, barefoot, his white hair and white clothes fluttering in the wind, walked leisurely out of the magic array. The old man opposite him looked at him with terror in his eyes.
“Xue You, you, you can’t kill me!”
“Old fool, why can’t I? You imprisoned me and used the contract with Mermaid Island to restrain me. I, a dignified Ice Snow Great Demon King, was deceived by a bastard like you. Now, I will not only kill you, but I will also cut you into a thousand pieces!”
Xue You slowly extended his hand, and ice and snow transformed into incredibly sharp blades, slowly dismembering the old man, flesh and bone separating.
Finally, his ashes were scattered.
The Hellhounds looked at the dissipating magic power and then at Sang Chu, their eyes sparkling as if they had seen a bone.
“Go.”
Sang Chu thought only one would run over, but unexpectedly, the one carrying Sang Chu also excitedly rushed through the magic array to the other side, greedily inhaling the magic power still lingering in the air.
Xue You watched the behavior of the two dogs and said nothing. He walked into his cave and took out many Storage Rings and a pile of Crystal Coin Cards: “These are all for you, as thanks for giving me my freedom.”
Although he had become a Card Slave through the contract, Xue You had the confidence of a Demon King. If Sang Chu tried to order him around without restraint, he would let Sang Chu know why he could still reign as king while imprisoned!
Sang Chu naturally knew of his proud personality. After accepting the items he gave, she presented a rose: “Then I’ll give these to you. Can this Black Gold Card contract a Level Five Wizard?”
“Wasteful. Black Gold Cards can contract a Demon King like me. Why would you use it to contract Level Five trash? You should at least contract a Demon King-level Magic Beast.”
“Alright, then what about you? Do you want to go into a card, or the place the Hellhounds were staying before?”
Upon hearing Sang Chu’s words, the Hellhounds became agitated. The two of them barked furiously at Xue You, as if afraid he would steal their territory.
This made Xue You very curious. Hellhounds were not creatures that willingly submitted to others. They didn’t even put Demon Kings like them in their eyes, and in Hell, they were so disgusted they wanted to escape at any moment.
But now, they were so excited over a place?
“I’ll go in and take a look first. If it’s not good, give me one of those pills you gave the mermaids, and I’ll change into human form and follow you.”
“Okay, I’ll go in first, and then I’ll let you in.”
“Mm.”
Xue You, along with Sang Chu and the Hellhounds, passed through the Teleportation Array and arrived at the Sea Area. Sang Chu then let him in. Upon entering the Bracelet Space, he looked at the insignificant roses and instantly felt that the things he had just treasured were no longer appealing!
No wonder those two dogs didn’t want anyone else to come in!
Xue You, feigning composure, said to Sang Chu: “Well, I, I’ll be here. You are my Master, you can directly cancel the array. You can just walk out.”
“Mm, as long as you’re satisfied, then that’s that.”
Holding Xue You’s Magic Card, Sang Chu finally breathed a sigh of relief. She now had four Hellhounds and a Demon King with the ceiling of Combat Power. It could be said that she could walk sideways on the Magic Continent.
After riding a Hellhound from the sea back to land, Sang Jing Wen and the others immediately surrounded her: “Sang Sang, are you alright?”
“I’m fine. Things here are temporarily concluded. Let’s set off for Rose Town.”
