When the masked man saw Qin Chen walking over, he cupped his hands at Qin Chen and bowed as a junior. He said softly, âGreetings, senior. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. I will answer everything I know and will not hold back.â
âI didnât expect the human race to have such a young Sage. May I know which faction youâre from?â Qin Chen exclaimed, his eyes full of surprise.
Although the masked manâs cultivation was one major realm and several minor realms lower than his, the masked man did not have a system cheat. For him to reach the Sage realm at such a young age, he could be said to be a true peerless monster.
The masked man didnât tell Qin Chen his identity. Instead, he smiled and replied, âSenior is praising me too much. I am only an unaffiliated cultivator that has no factions. Furthermore, the only one who can be called a monster is the Elder King. I am still far from him.â
As he spoke, the masked manâs eyes were filled with admiration. Qin Chen did not expect the masked man to be his little fan!
Since the masked man did not want to reveal his identity, Qin Chen did not continue asking. Instead, he went straight to the point, âWhere did you get this Five Feathers Fan?â
The masked man seemed to have guessed that Qin Chen would ask this question, so he answered frankly, âSenior, I obtained it by chance in the Phoenixâs Nest.â
âThe Phoenixâs Nest?!â Qin Chen frowned and exclaimed.
The Phoenixâs Nest was one of the nine great forbidden grounds. Why was the Five Feathers Fan there? Could the old lunatic be there too? If that was the case, how did the masked man manage to bring the Five Feathers Fan out of the Phoenixâs Nest?
âDid you really get the Five Feathers Fan in the Phoenixâs Nest? Have you seen a disheveled old man there?â Qin Chen asked two questions in a row, his eyes solemn.
The masked man nodded, âYes, senior. I did find Five Feathers Fan in the Phoenixâs Nest. As for the old man youâre asking about, I didnât see him. However, something seems to have happened there. Itâs filled with the corpses of the most vicious creatures, and there seems to be Phoenix blood!â
âPhoenix blood!â Qin Chen exclaimed again. This news was simply too shocking.
The phoenix was a legendary divine beast that was on par with the true dragon. Every adult phoenix had the strength of a God. If there really was splattered phoenixâs blood, could it be that someone had injured the phoenix?
To be able to injure the phoenix, could it be the great emperor?
Qin Chenâs face was filled with question marks. He looked at the masked man and asked with a serious face, âAre you sure itâs phoenix blood?â
âIt should be. The blood did not smear like ordinary blood, and it contained the rule of fire, which could melt everything. Even the spiritual spring could not extinguish the fire, and there was also a faint shadow of a phoenix, so it should be phoenix blood,â The masked man nodded with confidence.
After hearing the masked manâs description, Qin Chen was certain that it was indeed the phoenix blood. Furthermore, it was a phoenix whose cultivation had far surpassed that of a god.
But who could injure such a phoenix?
Unable to think of an answer, Qin Chen let out a long breath of hot air. He decided to go to the Phoenixâs Nest to take a look after he returned from the demon god race. Then, he took out another Sage herb and gave it to the masked man. He smiled and said, âThank you for telling me so much important information. I hope we can meet again in the future.â
âMany thanks, senior!â The masked man bowed to Qin Chen, who then left the secret room.
The next day, Qin Chen brought the big scorpion to Patriarch Wanduâs residence early in the morning. The Big scorpion snickered, âElder King, Patriarch Wandu offended an expert last night and was almost killed. He might still be recuperating now! Since he was so against you yesterday, just watch how I deal with him.â
As soon as he finished speaking, the big scorpion suddenly unleashed Supreme Sagely might as he bellowed, âPatriarch Wandu!â
Inside the house, Patriarch Wanduâs expression changed drastically. He thought that the expert from last night had come again. With a trace of fear in his eyes, he picked up his walking stick and jumped out of the back window, running away without looking back.
âHahaha, this old turtle is too cowardly!â The big scorpion laughed while holding his stomach.
Hearing the commotion, Patriarch Wandu stopped as well. His face was livid as he coldly shouted, âElder King, what is the meaning of this? Why did you bring a demon to my residence?â
âPatriarch Wandu, itâs time to head to the demon god race. This demon Supreme Sage is my friend. He is worried about my safety, so he is coming with us,â Qin Chen said indifferently.
Patriarch Wandu had seen the big scorpion before, but he didnât expect him to be so strong. To think the latterâs cultivation was a small realm higher than his.
Seeing that Qin Chen had such a powerful helper, Patriarch Wanduâs face turned ugly. He was filled with resentment, but he did not act up. Instead, he stood behind Qin Chen without saying a word.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qin Chen found his reaction quite strange. Last night, the other party did not even respect Supreme Sage Qin Tian, so why was he afraid of the big scorpion today? Qin Tian couldnât help but be on guard. After finding Ice Mother, the three humans and one demon rushed to the demon god race.
The demon god race was the second strongest race among the ten thousand ancient races. They dared to challenge the primordial sage race and were even stronger than the battle sage ape race and the divine silkworm race. However, due to their feud with the primordial sage race, their territory was very secretive, and almost no one knew about it.
Previously, the demon god race had made an appearance and a declaration in the Central Province. Thus, after asking around, Qin Chenâs group of four came to Yinyue City, where the demon god race had once appeared.
Yinyue City was a small city in the central region of the Central Province. Because it was located in the center of the Canglan Continent, although it was small, it was very lively. Cultivators bustled in the city, and one could even see many from the ten thousand ancient races.
To find the demon god raceâs territory as soon as possible, Qin Chen and the other three split into two groups to explore the city.
âElder King, just leave the matter of finding the demon god race to the old poisonous man. I heard that Yinyue City is one of the few cities where humans and the ten thousand ancient races can co-exist. Itâs extremely prosperous. Why donât we take a look around first?â The big scorpion looked at Qin Chen with great interest. He had just come out of the Demon Emperor Tomb and was naturally excited to see such a lively city like Yinyue City.
Qin Chen did not dampen the big scorpionâs enthusiasm. He immediately nodded in agreement, and the two of them began to stroll around Yinyue City.
At this moment, the news that the human Elder King had come to Yinyue City to rope in the demon god race suddenly spread. When the ten thousand ancient races in Yinyue City learned of this, they all gathered in a tavern.
Qin Chenâs expression turned extremely ugly when he learned of this. Under the big scorpionâs suggestion, the two went to the tavern where the ten thousand ancient races were gathered.
