Chapter 1055: Chapter 155: Making a Pot of Soup Chapter 1055: Chapter 155: Making a Pot of Soup “Blood Rose, you dare to vie for the Divine Bloodstone that the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor specifically wants? Quite bold of you. The Crocodile Turtle Ancestor has had his eyes on you, wishing to make you one of his concubines. Yet here you are, gutsy enough to disrespect him,” soone declared.
At that mont, another figure appeared—an old man with an exceedingly sinister face, his demonic aura piercing the sky. The sea of energy around them crystallized into ice due to his chilling aura.
“So it’s you, the great black snake.”
Blood Rose recognized the elder and responded coldly.
“I am a Jiao, a Jiao on the path to beco a true dragon!”
The old man raged.
His true form was that of a Black Flood Dragon, his bloodline closely related to a true dragon. He would beco a supre being on the day he transford into a dragon, but Blood Rose’s calling him a ‘great black snake’ made him seethe with frustration.
That was sothing he detested being reminded of.
“There’s no difference; you’re just a defeated subordinate of mine. All you did was get pumled by in the past. Is it the Crocodile Turtle who sent you here?”
Blood Rose had crossed swords with the elder before, competing for treasures, and he was never her opponent.
She sent a ssage to Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan remained unfazed.
He was already aware of the information about the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor: a demon of the demon race, a supre Crocodile Turtle of imnse ferocity, dominating among the plunderers.
It had once devoured all beings in a Celestial Field, centing its brutality.
“If you’ve got the guts, take it from the hands of the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor himself. The Divine Bloodstone is no longer mine!”
Ling Cheng spoke coldly and disinterestedly, wishing to stir up chaos.
He was indeed very annoyed. The elder had arrived a few days ago, claiming that the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor was holding a birthday banquet and asking him to prepare gifts for attendance.
But in truth, it was all for his Divine Bloodstone.
He wanted not to hand it over, but the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor was a supre being, and he had no choice but to reluctantly offer it as tribute, in exchange for safety in the future.
That was the law among the plunderers, where the mighty often exploited the lesser.
“One each.”
Blood Rose said, “Leave this great black snake to . Today, I’ll slay him and peel off his skin to make a delicious snake soup for the Emperor to taste!”
“I am a Jiao, not a snake!”
The elder angrily corrected.
“Turned into soup, all is the sa, no difference.”
Blood Rose, having been suppressed by Chu Yuan, vented her anger on the elder.
She swung her sword, simple and direct, and a wild surge of blood energy instantly spread.
Chu Yuan glanced at Blood Rose. Indeed, she was quite untad, but he liked won with such vivid personalities.
At this mont, Ling Cheng took a deep breath.
He had intended to strike at Chu Yuan, but upon gazing at the man, the towering, majestic imperial might discouraged his heart from proceeding.
Just standing there, this person seed like an immovable mountain to him, and he was certain that any attack on this man would be t with certain death.
He spread his hands, signaling that he wouldn’t take action.
“Ling Cheng, won’t you hurry and activate the grand array here, join in attacking, and send word to the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor? Then we can slay them all together!”
The elder shouted as Blood Rose’s aggressive assault overwheld him.
“Hmph! I fear I might be dead before the Crocodile Turtle Ancestor arrives; I’m not that stupid!”
Ling Cheng knew he was no match for Chu Yuan, but he wouldn’t admit that and said, “Brother Black Flood Dragon, you handle Blood Rose. I’ll keep an eye on this Emperor for you!”
He was already fuming inside. He had risked his life to obtain a piece of the Divine Bloodstone and hadn’t even had the chance to enjoy it before the mighty Crocodile Turtle Ancestor forced him to surrender it.
He was very displeased.
And now, the Black Flood Dragon had lingered for an entire month without leaving, demanding a great amount of resources every day. Ling Cheng, having already surrendered the Divine Bloodstone, had to continue supporting this black dragon.
This further aggravated his discontent.
He wasn’t foolish enough to fight to the death against this Emperor for no gain, especially knowing that any benefits wouldn’t fall into his hands in the end.
Either way, the outco was dood to be grim.
Starting from the Supre Realm, he had fought and struggled as a plunderer, learning to judge the situation. At the very least, he could see that clearly.
“Fine! Keep an eye on this man, I’ll make sure to pass the ssage to the ancestor!”
The elder roared.
He was also cursing inwardly, well aware of Ling Cheng’s thoughts, but at such a ti, he couldn’t force him.
At this mont, Ling Cheng did nothing, and Chu Yuan didn’t attack him either.
“Blood Rose, you offend Crocodile Turtle Ancestor, that will bring you no good!”
The elder was also panicking at this mont, wondering what got into Blood Rose, attacking so viciously, his body slashed with wounds. He bellowed and a blackwater Xuan Jiao, tens of thousands of feet long, appeared and attempted to escape.
Ling Cheng dared not make a move, nor was he a match for Blood Rose.
Now, his only option was to run first, pass the ssage to Crocodile Turtle Ancestor, then figure out what to do next.
“You won’t escape!”
Blood Rose struck fiercely.
Chu Yuan watched Blood Rose fight the blackwater Xuan Jiao, not offering to help her kill it. He understood Blood Rose was venting on the Xuan Jiao, so he just let her get on with it.
At this mont.
Blood Rose’s thorned blood whip suddenly lashed out, its sharp barbs tearing into the blackwater Xuan Jiao’s body with hideous pain, scales torn apart.
The thorned blood whip wrapped around the blackwater Xuan Jiao, tightening ever more.
Its sharp barbs pierced the Xuan Jiao’s skin, and, incredibly, began gulping the Jiao blood, swelling the blood whip up like a vein.
“Hmph! This ‘blood vessel’ of mine was obtained from a Heavenly Blood Vine during a fortuitous mont in my tribulation, imbued with the power of Heavenly Dao. It’s useless against him but lethal to you, this black serpent!”
Blood Rose muttered to herself.
Her defeat at the hands of Chu Yuan wasn’t because she was weak.
But because all her tricks were countered when facing Chu Yuan, achieving no effect, her thorned blood whip couldn’t even harm him.
In truth, she was extrely strong as a half-step supre, mastering secret techniques not all the Thirty-Three Heavens possessed, ranking her among the very top in her realm.
“Ah! Blood Rose, you will et a terrible end, Crocodile Turtle Ancestor will not spare you!”
The blackwater Xuan Jiao writhed and struggled in agony.
But the more fiercely he struggled, the deeper the thorned blood whip pierced.
Blood Rose was brutally and viciously cruel; while binding the blackwater Xuan Jiao with the thorned blood whip, her blood-colored blade soared with her jump, ferociously severing a huge Jiao head.
Blood sprayed, splashing all over Blood Rose.
Blood Rose remained indifferent, she quite enjoyed this bloody and murderous feeling, her provocative gaze towards Chu Yuan seed to assert her strength.
Chu Yuan smiled and gestured for her to co over.
“The blackwater Xuan Jiao got beheaded by Blood Rose, and such a violent Blood Rose is so obedient in front of that man; good thing I didn’t make a move, otherwise that would’ve been my fate!”
Ling Cheng had already realized that this Emperor had subjugated Blood Rose.
Disobedience ant ending up like the headless Xuan Jiao’s corpse.
“Ling Cheng pays his respects to the Emperor!”
Ling Cheng was smart and knew his place, holding up a Divine Bloodstone the size of a human head: “I wish to offer this Divine Bloodstone to the Emperor, even my spirit, just asking the Emperor to spare my life.”
“So perceptive.”
Chu Yuan looked at it, it indeed was a Divine Bloodstone.
“Submitting to soone stronger is fate.”
Ling Cheng bowed his head in a gesture of submission.
His heart as clear as a mirror, knowing that with the blackwater Xuan Jiao’s death here, Crocodile Turtle Ancestor would not let him off, it was better to ally with a stronger power.
“You’re smart and know your place, I accept your spirit.”
Chu Yuan kept Ling Cheng around, controlling his life and death to serve him.
He estimated the Divine Bloodstone, combining it with other resources he controlled, he could create several dozen nurturing elixirs.
Not every one of them might succeed, but it could still bring several more Celestial War Bodies into his empire.
“Emperor, this blackwater Xuan Jiao is also a great tonic, I will make a snake stew for the Emperor!”
Blood Rose, bristling with thorns, carrying the Jiao’s body, spoke fiercely.
