Chapter 2250 Exact Vengeance for Me, Zhao Ya!

“Y-yes!”

Not daring to argue with the young man, Hu Xiao quickly handed his storage ring over.

Zhang Xuan wiped off the Soul Imprint on the storage ring to take a look at the contents within before nodding in satisfaction.

As expected of a Conferred God King, there were quite a number of good things in there. While they were not too useful to him, they should prove to be quite useful for his parents, Luo Qiqi, and Sun Qiang.

“You can scram now.” Zhang Xuan waved his hand dismissively.

“Elder, thank you for sparing my life…”

After kowtowing thrice, Hu Xiao immediately ran away as quickly as he could.

He understood that the Flooding Sea was a place that preached the survival of the fittest. He might have had all his possessions taken away, but he could still recoup his losses as long as he was still around!

The antagonists usually lost their lives for spouting too much nonsense, so he would not make such a mistake.

After Hu Xiao left, Zhang Xuan looked at Ao Feng and the other God Kings and waved his hand.

“Take back whatever belongs to you!”

The crowd looked at one another, and after a moment of hesitation, they finally stepped forward to take back whatever belonged to them with reddened faces.

Initially, they had been a little displeased at how the young man was able to watch nonchalantly as they were getting extorted, but such a thought had already been vanquished from their heads.

They were only strangers, so why should the young man help them?

They should be grateful that he was willing to return their possessions to them.

“Elder, thank you for your help!” Ao Feng quickly reverted to his human form before bowing deeply to express his gratitude.

“There’s no need to stand on ceremony,” Zhang Xuan said with a wave of his hand. “It wasn’t my intention to absorb the Condensed Earth Essence, but that doesn’t change the fact that I have still done so. I hope that we can call it quits after I retrieved your possessions for you.”

“Definitely!” Ao Feng nodded vehemently in response. He fell silent with a conflicted look on his face for a moment before he asked, “Elder, by any chance, is it possible that… you are the Conferred God King of the Nine Skies?”

Given the huge commotion that had happened during the World Conferment, there was no way he would be oblivious to it. It was just that… he did not think that he would meet the other party there!

Furthermore, the other party was also much younger than he had expected.

“Yes, I am,” Zhang Xuan admitted frankly.

“He’s are the Conferred God King of the Nine Skies? The next… Heaven Subjugation Monarch?”

“No wonder he’s so powerful…”

“So, the red clouds that appeared two days ago was caused by that young man over there?”

…

Hearing the conversation between Ao Feng and Zhang Xuan, a huge uproar broke out amid the crowd.

It was only at this moment that the God Kings realized why the young man was so powerful despite only being a God King.

“That explains why you were able to absorb the Condensed Earth Essence!” Ao Feng struck his fist against his palm in realization.

The spiritual energy contained within the Condensed Earth Essence was so pure that even he, as a Conferred God King, was unable to absorb it carelessly. Yet, the young man was able to use it for his cultivation.

All this while, Ao Feng had been thinking that it was weird that something like this could happen, and just as he had thought, the young man was indeed no ordinary person!

The Conferred King of the Nine Skies, a person who was destined to become a God Monarch… It was no wonder he could absorb the Condensed Earth Essence easily.

At this moment, Ao Feng suddenly thought of something and said, “Elder, I know of a treasure here that will likely be useful to you.”

“Oh?” Zhang Xuan asked.

“Roughly five thousand li away from here, I saw some Monarch Spirit Grass in a dimension rift. I didn’t dare enter the area with my current cultivation, but if it’s you, elder, I think that you should be able to do it easily,” Ao Feng said.

“Monarch Spirit Grass?” Zhang Xuan’s eyes lit up. “Are you are referring to the legendary medicinal herb that is useful even for the cultivation of a God Monarch?”

He had read about the medicinal herb in one of the books that Kong shi had left behind.

Most medicinal herbs were useless to him, so he needed something of that tier in order to raise his cultivation quickly.

Ao Feng nodded.

“Lead the way!” Zhang Xuan said.

In terms of effectiveness, it went without saying that the Monarch Spirit Grass was far better than that of the Condensed Earth Essence.

He might just be able to push for a breakthrough to Conferred God King realm pinnacle or even God Monarch!

“What do we do with him?” Ao Feng pointed to the God King who had given away Zhang Xuan earlier to Hu Xiao.

“I don’t think that there’s any need to keep him alive anymore,” Zhang Xuan said as he flung his sleeves coldly.

“P-please, spare my life…”

The God King was in the midst of begging for mercy when he suddenly felt himself losing control over his body. Then, his body began swelling up as the zhenqi in his body became erratic, and the next moment, he abruptly exploded.

Just like that, his body and soul were utterly obliterated.

If Zhang Xuan had not been strong enough, that God King’s betrayal would have cost him his life. In a place like the Flooding Sea, it was foolish to show mercy to one’s enemies.

Others would simply take one’s compassion for granted.

Ao Feng and the other God Kings recoiled in shock from the sight.

When they saw how the young man let Hu Xiao get away, they had thought that the young man was still too young and good-natured for his own good, but after witnessing such a sight…

Indeed, it would be foolish to get on the wrong side of someone they could not afford to mess with.

Ao Feng felt extremely grateful that he had stuck to his principles and had not betrayed the young man, or else that could very well have been his fate.

“Let’s go!”

Paying no heed to the rest of the God Kings, Zhang Xuan urged Ao Feng to lead the way.

…

Hu hu!

With a livid face, Hu Xiao gnashed his teeth together as he muttered hatefully, “There’s no one else… He must be that Conferred God King of the Nine Skies!”

It was not too hard to deduce the truth. Other than the Conferred God King of the Nine Skies, who else, other than the God Monarchs, could possess such frightening strength?

“He might be formidable, but so what? Our Conferred God King Zhao Ya, who was groomed by God Monarch Fumeng himself, is nowhere weaker than him!” Hu Xiao thought of the silhouette of that valiant lady as he clenched his fists tightly.

Over the past month, God Monarch Fumeng had paid a heavy price in order to groom Conferred God King Zhao Ya, and fortunately, the latter had not let him down. Conferred God King Zhao Ya had displayed exceptional talent that far surpassed any Conferred God King that he had seen before.

Hu Xiao did not mind losing his own items; he could always recoup his losses easily by snatching the possessions of others. However, he could not forgive the young man for the humiliation he had suffered.

And if he enlisted the help of Conferred God King Zhao Ya, he might just able to return the favor to the young man.

With such a thought in mind, he quickly took out a unique Communication Jade Token that had been bestowed upon them by the God Monarch. It was an artifact that could be used even in the Flooding Sea.

After sending out his message, around ten minutes later, the space around him wavered, and a person appeared before him.

Dressed in silver armor was a valiant young lady, who, despite her great beauty, commanded a cold and domineering presence that no one dared look down upon.

Zhao Ya!

“What business do you have with me?” the young lady said with a cold voice that seemed to distance her from others.

It was due to God Monarch Fumeng’s help that she had been able to attain the strength that she currently possessed. Before entering the Flooding Sea, God Monarch Fumeng had told her to take care of the God Kings and Conferred God Kings from the Sky of Adamant Gold.

It was for this reason that she unhesitatingly parted from her juniors to rush over upon receiving the message from Hu Xiao.

“Conferred God King Zhao Ya, I was robbed by another Conferred God King just a moment ago, and the Condensed Earth Essence that I went to great lengths to prepare for God Monarch Fumeng has been taken away. I beseech you to help me apprehend that insolent fellow!” Hu Xiao bowed respectfully as he spoke.

Even though the other party was much younger than him, he did not dare act too haughtily in her presence, especially due to the vast disparity in their strength.

“Who was it?” Zhao Ya asked coldly. She had never been one to beat about the bush, so she got straight to the point.

“I don’t know what his name is, but he’s very likely the person who received the World Conferment a few days ago, the Conferred God King of the Nine Skies,” Hu Xiao replied.

Even though everyone knew about the Conferred God King of the Nine Skies, his identity remained a mystery to everyone except the God Monarchs. After all, this was a matter of grave import.

“The Conferred God King of the Nine Skies?” Zhao Ya repeated with a cold glint in her eyes.

Prior to entering the Flooding Sea, the God Monarchs had instructed her to be careful if she encountered the Conferred God King of the Nine Skies. Since then, she had been wanting to meet the other party, but who would have thought the fellow would actually make a move on one of the people on her side?

He sure was brazen!

It seemed like someone was asking for a lesson.
