“Starting from today, the three great warehouses of the Fiend Race are all yours!” Roderick declared triumphantly.

Xia Fei was so excited that his heart almost leapt from his chest!

The three great warehouses of the Fiend Race contained all the most valuable resources of the entire Fiend Race, everything from weapons and armor to daily supplies!

Xia Fei had been to Warehouse Three, which was where he had gotten the Fiend Lock, the Fiend Tears, and Fiend Scar, all three of which had been very strong! This was particularly true for the Fiend Tears, which had the formidable ability to boost the power of all weapons and armor!

The resources of Warehouse Two were one grade higher than those of Warehouse Three, and Warehouse One was essentially the treasure house of the Fiend Race! Any item in there was priceless!

Xia Fei had Fiend’s blood, as did the entire Skywing Clan! The three great Fiend Race Warehouses were far too important for Xia Fei!

Smiling, Roderick added, “While Old Ye has given you all three of the Fiend Race warehouses, there are some limitations. Every month, you can take any three items from Warehouse Two or any ten items from Warehouse Three, but for Warehouse One, you may only take one item.”

Xia Fei was startled, asking swiftly, “Why make this sort of arrangement? Old Ye doesn’t seem like a petty person.”

Roderick agreed, “Old Ye naturally isn’t a petty person. After all, giving you all three Fiend Race warehouses is an immense gift! But Old Ye is worried that your foundations are still too shallow, and getting too many nice things at once will draw the envy of others. That’s why he’s placed this monthly restriction on you.

“There’s nothing bad about this arrangement. In any case, it will all be yours eventually. No one will steal it from you.”

Xia Fei nodded and indicated that he understood Old Ye’s decision and expressed his thanks.

In truth, Xia Fei had already finished analyzing and comprehending the real truth. Old Ye was doing this so that Xia Fei would remain loyal to him. If Xia Fei was willing to follow him to the death, he would have endless rewards, able to take what he wanted from the three great Warehouses every month.

But if Xia Fei wasn’t loyal, the deal would end immediately!

As expected of one of the Five Ancient Apexes, a monster who had lived for eons! He tempted Xia Fei with enormous rewards, treating him gently. But by controlling the rate at which Xia Fei could take the treasures, he controlled Xia Fei!

Upon understanding all this, Xia Fei said firmly, “Then, Sir, I will have to trouble you to take me to Warehouse One.”

Roderick was startled, and then he said, “While Warehouse One is of the highest grade, you can only take one item at a time. Besides, the treasures of Warehouse Two are perfect for you, and you can take three at a time.”

Xia Fei smiled. “When it comes to armaments, the stronger the better. Even if there’s only one, it’s nothing to worry about.”

Roderick shook his head. “Fine. In any case, this is the decision you made. Follow me!”

…

Roderick led Xia Fei to the entrance of the Warehouse and stopped.

“The fiendish energy in the Warehouse is very heavy, so I won’t accompany you inside. Take your time to pick. In any case, it will all be yours eventually,” Roderick said as he opened the door.

Xia Fei nodded and strode inside, upon which the door closed again.

Fiend Race Warehouse One was much smaller than the other two. Xia Fei looked around and found that only several hundred treasures had been carefully placed here.

Each treasure had a detailed description and occupied its own large alloy cabinet. It was clear that the people of Annihilator held these items in very high regard.

Fiendish energy roiled about him. Even the treasures the Fiend Race had used had a powerful Aura. Standing in the center of the warehouse, Xia Fei felt like he was standing with the ancestors of the Fiend Race, the place overflowing somberly.

“This really is a treasure house. I don’t even need to look at them for me to feel the resonance from all these treasures!” Radix said excitedly.

Xia Fei frowned and walked forward. He went to the deepest part of the warehouse, where several items flashed ostentatiously.

“The Fiend King Scepter, the Fiend King Law Wheel, the Fiend King Goldscale Armor, the Fiend King Six Wings!!!” Xia Fei read out the names on the descriptions. These four flashy treasures all had the appellation of Fiend King! There was also a note that said that these four treasures were called the Pillars of the Four Kings!

“Fiend King!? Could these be the weapons and armor used by the leader of the Fiend Race?” Radix asked.

Xia Fei shook his head. He didn’t recognize what these things were, either. In any case, it was clear that these four Fiend King items were different from the other Fiend Race armaments.

The armaments produced by the Fiend Race generally had two commonalities. One was that they had sharply-edged appearances! Whether it was a weapon, armor, or even a house, it expressed the property of sharpness to the maximum.

The second was that they were weird! Their forms were weird and the materials used to make them were weird. Xia Fei had no idea what the three armaments he had were made of, but they were essentially weightless.

But these four Fiend King armaments were far too flashy. They were all a resplendent gold, certain to dazzle the eye if they were placed out in the middle of a dark space.

Xia Fei held each of these four golden Fiend King treasures, and all of them gave Xia Fei a sensation of immense power!

“This is the one,” Xia Fei said, taking the Fiend King Scepter.

As he was about to leave, Xia Fei took one more look at the treasures of Warehouse One, muttering to himself, “One day, all of you will be mine!”

Roderick registered the Fiend King Scepter while muttering to himself, “I can’t believe you didn’t pick a weapon! That’s so shocking! That is the Fiend King Scepter. Take good care of it!”

He was constantly staring at the scepter, as if this item had some special significance.

…

After leaving the warehouse, Xia Fei went straight to the eighth universe and told Chu Jingfeng and Yangguang about what had happened.

They had very intense reactions, particularly Chu Jingfeng, who was so excited that he shouted, “This scepter symbolizes the authority of the Fiend Race! I thought you didn’t care about authority, but it turns out that even you aren’t immune!” Chu Jingfeng grinned at him.

“Authority?” Xia Fei said in confusion. “It’s only a scepter. Does just having it grant authority?”

Chu Jingfeng and Yangguang looked at each other and smiled. “You said yourself that you felt some inexplicable power. This power is the allure of authority! It means that authority succeeded in tempting you!”

Xia Fei waved his hand and said disdainfully, “This is absolute nonsense. Authority means nothing. Fists decide who is the true king! Without sufficient strength, even with a scepter, people won’t take orders from you!

“Moreover, you guys are completely mistaken about the use of this scepter.”

Xia Fei took out the Fiend Lock. He wound the lower half of the Fiend Lock around his arm so that he could swing it around, and then he put the Fiend Lock and Fiend King Scepter together. The two actually matched each other perfectly!

Eh? What’s going on here?

Chu Jingfeng and Yangguang were both astonished. They couldn’t understand it. How could the Fiend Lock and the Fiend King Scepter combine so perfectly with one another?

Xia Fei took out the Fiend Tears, injected around one hundred thousand units of spirit power, and then inserted it into the bottom of the scepter.

Miraculously, as if they had been made for each other, the Fiend Tears were embedded in the Fiend King Scepter!

Xia Fei still wasn’t done. He inserted the scepter into his armor, the Fiend Scar!

Again, a perfect link! The three Fiend Race treasures all became one with the Fiend King Scepter!

Xia Fei swung the scepter around and said, “Do you get it now? The Fiend King Scepter is a set with these three Fiend Race armaments. They were always a single piece! When the Fiend Race was exterminated, those people probably didn’t understand this, so they placed the three Fiend Race armaments in Warehouse Three, rather than with the scepter!”

Chu Jingfeng and Yangguang stared in disbelief. Yangguang asked, “Since they were one, why haven’t the Fiend Tears activated and applied energy to the Fiend King Scepter?”

The Fiend Tears were a mystical item that could fill any weapon with energy! But this time, the Fiend Tears showed no signs of activity, and the Fiend Lock was still that hair-thin chain.

Xia Fei smiled and said, “That’s because I haven’t given it the order yet. Watch!”

Xia Fei pressed the red jewel on the top of the scepter lightly. As if it was a lightsaber, the Fiend King Scepter exploded with immense power! The Fiend Lock stopped being soft and pliable, instantly turning taut.

“This is the ultimate form of the Fiend King Scepter! Even Roderick, the one protecting the three great Warehouses, didn’t think that the scepter was a weapon, but in reality, the scepter is the finest weapon, and it’s a set together with the three Fiend armaments!

“I can now more freely control the Fiend Lock, making it hard or soft whenever I want! I can also release or call back energy freely!” Xia Fei declared.

Chu Jingfeng and Yangguang were dumbfounded. They suddenly realized that Xia Fei had made the right choice, a very smart choice!

He now had the scepter, and he had also boosted the power of his three Fiend Race armaments!

Yangguang pursed his lips, seemingly intending to say something. Suddenly, he grew angry! “Those guys again! Aren’t they tired yet!?” Yangguang roared as he strode out.

Xia Fei asked, “Who are you talking about?”

“The Soul Familiars of the Four Sky Devils! When you weren’t here, those guys came over quite a few times! Every time, they ask me where the Medicinal Cauldron Prince’s Metal Book is, as if I was the one who had lost it!” Yangguang snarled in frustration.

—

Xia Fei’s party left Yangguang’s palace, and sure enough, the four Soul Familiars stood proudly in the distance, floating in the air.

“You’re making me angry! This is the last time! the Medicinal Cauldron Prince’s metal Book isn’t here!!!” Yangguang roared, his body radiating wrath.

Wing, Gale, Ocean, and Calamity all laughed. Wind came forward and said, “Old Dragon King, we didn’t come to find you this time. We came to talk about something with Xia Fei!”

“With me?” Xia Fei was startled, saying in disbelief, “What do you want to talk with me for?”

Wind didn’t reply, instead waving his hand through the air and letting out a tightly-bound human. With a sharp tingle, Xia Fei’s right arm started shuddering, and his face paled!

This person held the last Immemorial Mystical Armament, the Metal Mystical Armament Absolution! Xia Fei could sense it clearly!

Xia Fei placed his hands behind his back and asked coldly,”What do you want?”

Wind chuckled and pointed at the warrior he had captured. “It’s very simple. We want God’s Eden, and you want the Immemorial Mystical Armament. This is a trade.”

Xia Fei was surprised, but he shook his head firmly. “I won’t agree to that.”

Yggdragon King Yangguang seemed very angry. He strode forward and said, “Did you hear that!? Xia Fei doesn’t agree to the deal! Hurry and get out of my house!”

The four Soul Familiars looked around, and Gale said indifferently, “Old Dragon King, don’t be angry. Since Xia Fei doesn’t want to agree to the deal, we’ll just leave.”

But then Xia Fei suddenly said, “I don’t agree to that either!”

Everyone looked at Xia Fei in surprise, wondering what he meant.

“It’s very simple. God’s Eden is mine, and so is that man! You leave that man behind or none of you will leave here today!” Xia Fei proclaimed quite unreasonably as he took out the Fiendish Blade Nirvana!
