Divine King of Honour

Xu Nian's face also showed surprise upon hearing Ji Tianlong's words.

Just now he was talking about the Sea King Palace.

Yet, unexpectedly, in just a moment's time, they encountered someone from the Sea King Palace.

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, a golden figure burst forth from the sea.

To be precise, it was shooting backwards.

"Boom!"

The Netherworld King crashed directly into the wall of the Black Dragon Ship's cabin, creating a roaring sound.

A deep pit was smashed into the steel wall.

The people around all showed astonished expressions.

This skeleton was a One-star Battle Emperor level expert.

How could it suddenly shoot backwards?

"What's going on, Netherworld King?" Xu Nian also asked.

"Master, there is a powerful Demon Beast below, I can't beat it," the Netherworld King said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian frowned.

It seemed there was an Emperor Level Demon Beast under the sea.

Otherwise, with the Netherworld King's power, it shouldn't be an unbeatable opponent.

"Splash!"

At that moment, there was a sound of water from the sea.

A wave of seawater kept gushing out from the sea surface.

Then, a figure appeared in everyone's sight.

Everyone turned to look in Xu Nian's direction.

When they saw the new arrival, their faces also showed surprised expressions.

It was a tall and imposing man, his skin a bronzed color.

His whole body was muscular, the muscle lines very pronounced.

At first glance, he gave off an indestructible vibe.

Moreover, his neck was covered with a layer of blue scales.

These scales were very glossy and extremely hard.

However, what really caught Xu Nian's attention was the aura emanating from this Demon Beast.

It had reached the Peak of Three-star Demon Emperor.

"He is one of the six Battle Emperors of the Sea King Palace, the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King. He often roams the Eastern Sea, likes to hunt fishermen, and is extremely brutal by nature," Ji Tianlong said.

Xu Nian nodded.

From this creature's eyes, one could see that this Demon Beast was indeed extremely ferocious.

And judging by the other party's demeanor, the visit was probably not friendly.

"May I ask, sir, what brings you here?" Xu Nian asked.

Upon hearing Xu Nian's words, the middle-aged man turned his head to look at Xu Nian, his eyes filled with disdain.

"What business? Do you think I have any business? Don't you know that any human seen by me, the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King, only has one path—death? This area is the territory of our Sea King Palace, and any human who steps foot here is on the path to death," said the middle-aged man coldly.

Xu Nian was taken aback by his words.

He had heard from Ji Tianlong that the Sea King Palace was domineering, but he didn't expect it to be to this extent.

Humans stepping foot here meant a path to death.

Did that mean their ships shouldn't appear above the Eastern Sea at all?

"Sir, that's hardly reasonable. We are merely traveling by ship to Penglai and have not entered the interior of the seabed, which doesn't count as stepping onto the Sea King Palace's territory," Xu Nian quickly retorted.

"Hmph, who says that only the seabed of the Eastern Sea is our Sea King Palace's territory? This sea surface of the Eastern Sea belongs to us as well, even the airspace above it in the future is ours, and Penglai, that small island, will one day belong to our Sea King Palace too," said the Green-Scaled King dismissively.

Upon hearing this, Penglai's people's eyes suddenly filled with anger.

They frequently had conflicts with the Sea King Palace.

Every clash would bring about significant discord.

The Sea King Palace incessantly desired to obliterate them, Penglai.

They from Penglai also wanted to annihilate the Sea King Palace.

But after all, the Sea King Palace was located deep in the sea.

The people of Penglai had no way to deal with them.

Over time, both sides remained deadlocked.

On the island, the disciples of Penglai were protected by the Formation.

Once they left the island, if the people of the Sea King Palace discovered them, they would come under attack.

Many disciples from Penglai had perished at the hands of the Sea King Palace's Demon Beasts.

So now, hearing what the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King was saying, their eyes turned exceedingly angry as they looked at him.

"Green-Scaled Storm Fish King, don't be arrogant. Your Sea King Palace isn't strong enough to annihilate our Penglai," Ji Tianlong scoffed.

"Oh, isn't this the Mad Emperor Ji Tianlong? What happened, has your 'Heart Loss Curse' been lifted?" the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King sneered.

"Thanks to your Palace Master, my Heart Loss Curse was lifted, something I'm sure disappointed him," Ji Tianlong sneered in response.

Hearing this, Xu Nian understood that the Heart Loss Curse on Ji Tianlong's body had been cast by the Sea King Palace Master.

He had not expected Ji Tianlong to have such deep-seated grievances with the Sea King Palace.

"In our Palace Master's eyes, you're nothing but a small fish. He never cared about your life or death. Even if you've freed yourself from the Heart Loss Curse, it's a simple matter for him to kill you. Planting the Heart Loss Curse was merely a whim on his part," the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King said disdainfully.

Upon hearing this, Ji Tianlong's fists clenched tightly.

However, because of the injuries Xu Nian had caused him earlier, Ji Tianlong couldn't activate his Spiritual Energy at this moment.

"It seems my timing is perfect. Who would have thought that the Mad Emperor is still injured," the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King mocked.

"Hmph, even if my senior uncle is injured, I am still here. You, being merely a Three-star Demon Emperor, can't hold any advantage over us," Feng Chenzi scoffed in response.

The Green-Scaled Storm Fish King merely smiled slightly and said, "Feng Chenzi, you are nothing but a loser under me. Do you really think you stand a chance against me? Moreover, this is the ocean. How many chances do you think you have to defeat me? Besides, do you think I came here alone?"

"Swish!"

At that moment, another splash was heard from the sea.

Following that, another figure came into view.

"White Flood Dragon King?"

Seeing this figure, both Ji Tiancheng and Feng Chenzi were taken aback.

Xu Nian also furrowed his brows, showing a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The newly appeared man in white had a stern and resolute face.

He exuded a powerful aura.

His Cultivation was quite formidable, having reached the realm of a Five-star Demon Emperor.

"White Flood Dragon King? Could his true form be a white flood dragon?" Xu Nian wondered to himself.

This time, the Sea King Palace had clearly come prepared by suddenly dispatching two Battle Emperor Level powerhouses.

"It's been a while, Ji Tianlong. I didn't expect you to still be alive," the White Flood Dragon King spoke to Ji Tianlong.

Ji Tianlong's brows slightly furrowed.

He had initially thought that only the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King had come.

But he hadn't anticipated the arrival of the White Flood Dragon King as well.

This made things quite troublesome for them.

Especially now, as his combat power was greatly reduced.

Feng Chenzi might at most hold off the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King.

The White Flood Dragon King could only be handed over to Xu Nian.

Although Ji Tianlong trusted Xu Nian's strength,

the power of the White Flood Dragon King was formidable as well.

In terms of combat power, he could even compare to a human Six-star War Emperor.

Could Xu Nian really contend with him?

"Ji Tianlong, Feng Chenzi, don't worry. We didn't come here for you this time," said the two great Sea Demons as they turned their heads to look at Xu Nian.

"For me?" Xu Nian's eyes flashed with surprise.
