Chapter 188 - I Am Hungry…



Chapter 188: I Am Hungry…

No one knew whether it was due to the Emerald Cloud Sect’s feng shui or the genes of its members, but they were either as plump as meatballs like Nie Qingyun and the fat woman or as skinny as a match like Zhuang Baimo.

Nie Qingyun and the red-haired old man landed in the courtyard. Nie Qingyun looked around and noticed Little Wingsy by Ye Chen’s side. He was so alarmed that he took two steps back. His previous battle against Little Wingsy was still fresh in his mind. Why did these two come here? Nie Qingyun could not help but feel his scalp go numb with shock!

“Who are you? You dare to barge into the Emerald Cloud Sect without an invitation?” The red-haired old man swept his cold, severe gaze across Ye Chen and the rest as he shouted.

“An old bird dares to behave like this in front of me! Don’t put on airs with me!” Ye Chen snorted coldly in disdain, then said boomingly, “Hand over that tyke Nie Chengfeng quickly. I’ll give him a good beating, then take care of you guys. If you delay in the slightest, I’ll tear your Emerald Cloud Sect apart today!” A mere Heavenly Adept Rank Celestial Beast dared to hoot scornfully before him. ‘I’m not even afraid of Daemon King Rank Celestial Beasts, would I be afraid of you? Just wait until Little Wingsy reveals his true self – be careful not to wet your pants with fright!’

Ye Xuan was anxiously pulling Ye Chen back. She knew that this old man was the Emerald Cloud Sect’s Great Ancestor, a top Heavenly Venerable fighter. As for the fatty beside him, that was the sect leader Nie Qingyun, also a top Heavenly Venerable fighter. Big Brother Ye Chen was going to stir up an immense catastrophe!

Ye Chen’s rudeness had caused the red-haired old man to become enraged. The old man stared at Nie Qingyun and the rest. “What’s going on?” A seventeen, eighteen-year-old child dared to act so disdainfully here. Over the past centuries, his self-restraint had improved. If this was three hundred years ago, the old man would have sorted out this rude punk already. This punk dared to call him an old bird. Could Ye Chen have figured out his original form? After he had transformed, not even the Mystique Venerable powerhouses among the humans could figure out his original form!

“Great Ancestor, here’s what happened. Nie Chengfeng took a liking to this lady. She’s called Ye Xuan, a disciple of our Emerald Cloud Sect. This young man is her brother,” Zhuang Baimo immediately explained by one side.

The old man harrumphed coldly. “I’d thought it was something huge. You can’t even handle a small matter like this. First, there’s this female disciple, then, outsiders come causing trouble. Throw them out of here! As for Ye Xuan, punish her according to the sect’s laws!” No matter how much of a scoundrel Nie Chengfeng was, he was still the leader’s son. The red-haired old man would at least preserve this bit of Nie Qingyun’s pride.

Nie Qingyun glanced at Little Wingsy. He was still fearful of Little Wingsy’s strength. This might be more than he could handle. He opened his mouth, wanting to stop the Great Ancestor, but did not know what to say. All this trouble was caused by his son, Nie Chengfeng. If Nie Qingyun had known that Ye Xuan was Ye Chen’s little sister, he would have sent her out of the Emerald Cloud Sect long ago.

Must they fight? The moment he recalled Little Wingsy’s strength, Nie Qingyun’s back was drenched in cold sweat. Even the Tier Three Spirit Artifact Rank, the Emerald Cloud Sword, could not cut this small kid!

“Great Ancestor, hold on. This matter is Chengfeng’s fault.” Nie Qingyun hastily stopped the old man. Now, he was only worried about exacerbating the situation. Their opponents had mysterious origins and he was afraid the Emerald Cloud Sect could not afford to provoke them.

“It’s not important who’s at fault. These outsiders have brought the trouble here. If my Emerald Cloud Sect doesn’t handle them, won’t we become the butt of everyone’s jokes? Throw out these people and keep Ye Xuan here!” the red-haired old man yelled in fury.

The Great Ancestor was so enraged that Nie Qingyun felt it was difficult to back out now. He did not know how to resolve this matter.

If Ye Chen was someone ordinary, he would have been beaten up mercilessly and cast out the door whereas Ye Xuan would stay on in the Emerald Cloud Sect and silently receive her punishment. Without power, that would be the ending. If things were more tragic, Ye Chen might be beaten to death.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, they’re too much!” Little Wingsy could not help reproaching them. The more he stared at the red-haired old man, the more irritated he became.

Ye Chen gave a smug grin. “Hmmph, very well. I want to see how you’re going to throw us out and whether you have the capability to do so. Little Wingsy, resume your original form!”

“Mmm.” The moment he heard what Ye Chen said, Little Wingsy became excited. Finally, he could resume his original form.

Little Wingsy suddenly rose in the air and transformed into a gigantic serpent over three hundred meters long. He churned through the air with azure scales glinting dazzlingly under the bright sunlight. His lantern-like eyes fixed upon the people below and three pairs of transparent wings flapped constantly. Little Wingsy hissed as his forked tongue flitted out. A colossal pressure descended and the surrounding air seemed to turn heavy as lead. With a flick of Little Wingsy’s tail, a few of the surrounding buildings toppled with a loud rumble.

This kid was a mystical beast!

Those from the Emerald Cloud Sect were startled and their faces turned pale.

Little Wingsy, who was like a primeval creature, shook them to their core. This was a massive serpent of more than three hundred meters! However, from the presence that was exuded, they could tell that this Winged Serpent was a supreme, overpowering existence, unlike those ordinary Ninth Level, Tenth Level mystical beasts!

Although Little Wingsy was injured and had not recovered his initial strength fully, after he had resumed his original form, the pressure was not something ordinary people could withstand. That ancient, primeval energy caused the rest to become frozen with fear.

“A Daemon King powerhouse!” The red-haired old man took a few heavy steps back with a frightened look.

Upon hearing what the red-haired old man said, Nie Qingyun, Zhuang Baimo, and the rest were so scared that their legs started to tremble. Of course, they knew what kind of being a Daemon King was!

Supposedly, Daemon Kings usually lived deep in the hills in old forests. They usually have their own influence, having countless Heavenly Adept or even Mystique Adept fighters under their command. They would seal themselves off and typically would not appear in the human world. Occasionally, some Daemon Kings would hide among the humans to seek enlightenment for the sake of advancing their attainment level.

“Hmmph, at least you still have some power of judgment. Didn’t you say you were going to throw us out of the Emerald Cloud Sect? Today, I want to see how you’re going to do that!” Ye Chen stared at the old man, Nie Qingyun, and the rest in an unruffled manner. Little Wingsy was injured. Even after resuming his original form, he was not suited for battle. Although the resilience of Little Wingsy’s body meant that self-preservation was not a worry, he would still have to expend immense effort to kill the red-haired old man and Nie Qingyun. This was not what Ye Chen wanted.

The old man’s red beard was quaking in fear. His knees caved in and he knelt with a thud in front of Ye Chen and Little Wingsy. In a trembling voice, he said, “I was blind as a bat and have offended Your Highnesses. Please spare my insignificant life.” His face and his body were trembling all over. So much for the grandeur of the Emerald Cloud Sect’s Great Ancestor!

A Daemon King! That was a Daemon King powerhouse! The might of a Daemon King was talked about by countless mystical beasts and Celestial Beasts. This was the incomparably mysterious and terrifying existence of the legends!

Seeing that the Great Ancestor had knelt, Nie Qingyun, Zhuang Baimo, and the rest from the Emerald Cloud Sect did the same. They felt like slapping themselves and also burned with resentment toward Nie Chengfeng. Of all the people that Nie Chengfeng must take a liking too, it was Ye Chen’s little sister. Now, they had offended a Daemon King fighter. Was this not a death wish?

If the Daemon King fighter so much as sneezed casually, the entire Emerald Cloud Sect would be reduced to dust!

Ye Xuan stared at Ye Chen, stunned. Little Wingsy, who was hundreds of meters long, flying in the sky, thoroughly astonished her!

Daemon King? Although Ye Xuan did not quite understand what a Daemon King was, based on the reactions of the old man, Nie Qingyun, and the rest, a Daemon King must be an extremely formidable existence. Most importantly, this Daemon King seemed to obey Ye Chen. Ye Xuan felt that Ye Chen was increasingly no longer like the Big Brother Ye Chen she had previously known. His figure had grown even loftier in her eyes – as sturdy as a mountain that protected her and her clan.

“Stop talking rubbish here. Summon that tyke Nie Chengfeng quickly. I want to see what kind of trash he is, to dare to bully my little sister. And the fat woman over there, don’t play dead. Don’t be surprised if I burn you at the stake!” Ye Chen said hotly.

“Go and bring that unfilial son of mine, quickly!” Nie Qingyun was on the verge of tears and feeling depressed. Back when he had encountered Little Wingsy in Xuan Pavilion, he should have realized that Little Wingsy was not a human. It was bad enough that he had bumped into Little Wingsy that one time. Why did he offend this fearsome fiend again?

Zhuang Baimo immediately rushed out. After a few minutes, he returned carrying a fatty and threw the fatty down before Ye Chen. This fatty looked a little like Nie Qingyun but was even uglier. His face was covered in a messy full beard, looking incredibly sloppy. He looked even older than Nie Qingyun.

“What are you doing? Why did you seize me?” Nie Chengfeng clambered up pathetically and roared in anger. He had been sleeping and cuddling with a female disciple when he was suddenly picked up and brought here. When he turned back, he noticed that the Great Ancestor and Nie Qingyun were kneeling, and was stunned. The fatty looked toward Ye Chen, then looked up. When he saw Little Wingsy who was hundreds of meters long, he was so afraid that he nearly peed his pants. His voice quivered as he asked, “Who are you… Why… Did you come to my Emerald Cloud Sect?”

“Not bad, you still can speak.” Ye Chen looked at this ugly fellow and instantly felt a burst of hatred. Someone like this tried to act thuggish and force himself upon Ye Xuan?

“What are you doing?” Seeing that Ye Chen was nearing him step by step, Nie Chengfeng was so frightened, his lips turned white.

“It looks like you’ve enjoyed your tyranny here in the Emerald Cloud Sect. I wonder how many female disciples have submitted to your coercion. Is your luck with women that great?” Ye Chen glared icily at Nie Chengfeng.

Nie Chengfeng glanced around at everyone then noticed Ye Xuan. Instantly, he understood. Even though he was a wastrel, based on the current situation, he knew that his father and Great Ancestor would not be able to save him. Nie Chengfeng’s legs turned soft and he fell to the ground. With his face full of tears and snot, he kowtowed to Ye Chen. “I was wrong, I shouldn’t have fallen for Ye Xuan or coerced her. I was really wrong!”

“Taking a liking to Little Xuan is understandable. After all, she’s grown to be so pretty. But to use underhand methods – that I cannot forgive. Did you think that our Ye Clan is so easily bullied?” Ye Chen kicked Nie Chengfeng.

Nie Chengfeng was so startled that he was quivering all over. The massive Winged Serpent above him made him endlessly fearful. Even when Ye Chen was kicking him, he dared not move a muscle.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, I’m hungry…” Above Ye Chen’s head, Little Wingsy said in a low voice. He was about to say that he wanted some lamb chops but given the circumstances, it did not seem appropriate to say that.

When Nie Chengfeng heard the gigantic Winged Serpent above them say that he was hungry, Nie Chengfeng’s eyes rolled up and he fainted at once.
