Chapter 687: Chapter 363: Princess Yaoguang’s Methods—Trouble Ahead!

Just a glance at Li Shaofeng, Luo Cheng withdrew his gaze and began to savor the fruits and snacks on the table.

These fruits and snacks were exquisite, each bite leaving a fragrant aftertaste, and given that Luo Cheng hadn’t had a proper meal in a long time, his appetite was aroused.

At this moment, the voice of Princess Yaoguang echoed in the courtyard.

“Everyone here comes from neighboring countries; you are all outstanding talents. Today’s gathering in Yunquan City is undoubtedly due to the Blood Demon, or more precisely, for the Blood Evil Essence Crystal.”

Although Princess Yaoguang was a woman, her speech carried a trace of authority, directly revealing the intentions of those present.

The crowd didn’t understand the purpose behind these words and looked towards Princess Yaoguang.

Princess Yaoguang glanced at everyone and continued:

“The emergence of the Blood Demon is of great significance. If it gains momentum, it will become a major disaster, causing suffering and devastation. Therefore, I hope everyone can work together, exchange information, and fully commit to slaying the demon.”

“Hehe, the Blood Demon has appeared, and it’s a rule that everyone should strive to kill it. Naturally, there’s no problem in working together with full effort to slay the demon.”

Xue Peng, being straightforward, laughed and asked the question everyone was most concerned about: “However, what will be done with the Blood Evil Essence Crystal after killing the Blood Demon?”

“Since ancient times, treasures have belonged to those capable of possessing them, and the Blood Evil Essence Crystal is no exception. After slaying the Blood Demon, whoever can obtain it will do so based on their abilities.”

Princess Yaoguang’s eyes sparkled, her beauty unrivaled, her smile enchanting. As she spoke, her voice was as melodious as the sounds of nature, “However, I have an unworthy request. To be honest, I have reached a crucial step in my breakthrough and urgently need the Blood Evil Essence Crystal to impact the True Man Path. If anyone among you obtains the Blood Evil Essence Crystal, I hope you can transfer it to me. Of course, I won’t take it for free and will purchase it at the normal market price, and henceforth, you will be a friend of mine as Yaoguang.”

Princess Yaoguang’s voice was clear, her silver pupils like water, seemingly shrouded in mist, giving a dreamlike feeling.

“Hehe, Princess Yaoguang is too polite. Since you need it, why would we take what you love?”

“Indeed, if I get the Blood Evil Essence Crystal, I will offer it with both hands…”

As soon as Princess Yaoguang finished speaking, two young men immediately smiled and agreed.

The others merely smiled without speaking, but their eyes were somewhat disdainful.

Luo Cheng also shook his head silently in his heart.

The Blood Evil Essence Crystal is a rare treasure, critical for Heavenly-level Great Powers to reach higher levels, something fiercely contested among Great Power Level strong people!

Giving up such a treasure is tantamount to handing over an opportunity to become stronger!

Just for a woman and her offer of friendship!

It’s simply foolish to an extreme!

“Then Yaoguang thanks the two gentlemen.”

Princess Yaoguang nodded gracefully to the two, her smile radiant, then turned her gaze to the pavilion where Luo Cheng was and suddenly said:

“Jin Tiandu, you are a prince of the Great Yue Dynasty, and with the intelligence network of your dynasty’s imperial family, you must have clues about the Blood Demon’s whereabouts. Can you share them? This way, everyone can find the Blood Demon as soon as possible and kill it. Otherwise, once it undergoes transformation and becomes a scourge, it will be irreparable.”

“What a skillful Princess Yaoguang!”

Luo Cheng marveled at Princess Yaoguang as he watched her.

Princess Yaoguang’s earlier righteous words about working together to slay the demon made him believe she was devoted to eradicating evil and aligned with the people’s heart. Little did he realize it was all a premeditated plot to get Jin Tiandu to reveal the Blood Demon’s whereabouts!

If Jin Tiandu didn’t speak, it would mean disregarding righteousness and not seeing the bigger picture.

This subtle yet all-encompassing control made Luo Cheng couldn’t help but admire.

Sure enough, everyone present turned their gaze towards Jin Tiandu.

Facing such a situation, Jin Tiandu remained calm and composed.

Eliminating the Blood Demon sooner was beneficial to the Great Yue Dynasty, and he had no intention of hiding information. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have informed Xue Peng.

With a faint smile, Jin Tiandu continued along Princess Yaoguang’s line of thinking, “Princess Yaoguang is right. We should indeed collaborate to slay the Blood Demon as soon as possible to prevent future troubles.”

“About the Blood Demon, I do have some information. It was besieged by three True Masters and fled southward, disappearing only in this region. Severely injured, it shouldn’t have been able to escape far and should be hiding within a thousand-mile radius…

Jin Tiandu was in the middle of his explanation.

“Oh, it’s you!”

Suddenly, an exclamation rang out. Newest update provıded by nοvelfire.net

It was Li Shaofeng sitting next to Princess Yaoguang!

Seeing Luo Cheng, he showed a look of surprise, excitedly standing up from his seat.

Jin Tiandu’s face changed, realizing the situation had turned south!

Luo Cheng remained very calm, looking directly at Li Shaofeng, “That’s right, it’s me.”

Sensing the tension in the air, the crowd was somewhat surprised and couldn’t help but size up Luo Cheng, finding him merely at the Late Ninth Layer of Awakening Vein Realm, and then looked towards Li Shaofeng.

Princess Yaoguang asked, “Junior Brother Li, who is this person?”

Li Shaofeng looked at Luo Cheng with a sharp gaze, gritting his teeth, and said in a deep voice, “This guy is named Luo Cheng, a disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect of the Great Yue Dynasty! Junior Brother Liu Yifeng suffered a loss at his hands before!! I wanted to teach him a lesson then, but I was stopped.”

“Oh?”

“Dare to oppose our Extreme Dao Sect disciple!”

Two other Extreme Dao Sect disciples also glanced at Luo Cheng with unkind eyes.

As disciples of the premier sect in the Great Chu Dynasty, Extreme Dao Sect, they held themselves in high regard and looked down upon the disciples from the Three Great Sects of the Great Yue Dynasty!

In their opinion, it was extremely disgraceful and hard to accept that a fellow junior brother had suffered at the hands of a Xuanyuan Sect disciple!

What they didn’t know was that Liu Yifeng didn’t just suffer; he was thoroughly defeated by Luo Cheng’s ability to cross realms!

Princess Yaoguang glanced at Luo Cheng, calmly saying, “It seems I did not invite this person.”

Hearing this, Li Shaofeng sneered, “Senior Sister, don’t worry, I’ll see to it that he leaves immediately!”

As he spoke, Li Shaofeng took several steps towards the pavilion, his gaze fixed on Luo Cheng while releasing an intense Sword Momentum, making the whole courtyard swirl with wind.

Jin Tiandu, seeing the situation was dire, hurriedly stood to mediate, smiling, “Li Shaofeng, Princess Yaoguang, Luo Cheng is my friend, and I insisted on bringing him here…”

Li Shaofeng snorted, glancing at Luo Cheng, “Jin Tiandu, it’s not that I’m not giving you face. This gathering held by Senior Sister is to discuss how to confront the Blood Demon, not some tea party where any Tom, Dick, or Harry can enter! A waste, someone with an awakened Wasted Martial Soul, wants to contend with the Blood Demon?”

Jin Tiandu frowned slightly, still figuring out what to say.

A cold laugh suddenly sounded.

“Hehe, your cultivation is only slightly higher than mine. If I am a nobody, then do you think you are qualified?”

Luo Cheng stood tall, staring directly at Li Shaofeng.

All eyes fell on them, quite surprised to find Luo Cheng so unyielding, daring to confront Li Shaofeng directly!
