Chapter 477: Chapter 463: Longhun
The situation on Dragon Slayer Island was becoming tense.
The leader of the Dragon Slaying Clan had originally been the Mutant Winged Dragon, and while he was in power, they had a second in command, Shi Yin Zun. The Mutant Winged Dragon had always managed to keep Shi Yin Zun in check, but they had differing opinions.
Longhun, the other son of the Mutant Winged Dragon, had stayed on Dragon Slayer Island because of Shi Yin Zun; if Longhun left, there would be no one who could keep Shi Yin Zun under control.
Shi Yin Zun had always been opposed to attacking the Immortal Demon Domain.
The Mutant Winged Dragon was now dead.
A large number of people from the Dragon Slaying Clan had also perished, including Zen Master, Shen Tian, and Shen Li.
All of a sudden, Shi Yin Zun turned his agression towards Longhun. He would no longer obey anyone from the Dragon family. With the Mutant Winged Dragon dead, it was impossible for Longhun to control him.
Shi Yin Zun knew that the Mitra Monk was still alive, with so remnants still in Central Plains, and could co back at any ti. He was eager to get control of Dragon Slayer Island. He saw this as a chance to seize the position of Island Master before the Mitra Monk returned.
In the dark of night, at the edge of the cliff, Longhun looked out over the sea. His father, the Mutant Winged Dragon, had died. As a son, he should have shed a few tears, but he didn’t. He didn’t know when, but he had forgotten how to cry.
He had wanted to return to Central Plains several tis to help them, but he always gave up because of Shi Yin Zun’s restless ambitions.
News of the Mutant Winged Dragon’s death had now arrived.
He had been killed by his own brother, Ye chen, which made Longhun’s heart ache. His fists clenched tightly, teeth grinding, and he fiercely pounded a stone ahead of him, blood gushing out.
He would not let this lie, absolutely not. He would make the people of the Immortal Demon Domain pay in blood.
Behind him, a shadow approached. It was Mo Ku, one of the people Longhun trusted the most.
The blood from his fist dripped down his fingers. In the black night, the blood was also black. Unperturbed, he licked it.
Mo Ku said, “Shi Yin Zun, together with Guan Gutuo, plans to seize the position of Island Master of Dragon Slayer Island tomorrow, taking advantage of Mitra Monk’s absence.”
Upon hearing this, Longhun nodded and asked, “How are Mitra Monk and his people doing?”
“They escaped with a group of people by sheer luck, but the danger hasn’t passed yet.” Mo Ku then asked, “Shouldn’t we start preparing? We can’t let Shi Yin Zun succeed. I could contact Mitra Monk now and ask them to hurry back.”
Shaking his head, Longhun responded, “No, don’t ask them to co back. If Shi Yin Zun wants the position of Island Master, let him have it.” But he had other plans in his mind.
“What? Did I hear you correctly? The position of Island Master is crucial for our recovery.” Mo Ku said, “If we lose that position, we will no longer be the leaders of the Dragon Slaying Clan and people will stop listening to us.”
Of course Longhun understood Mo Ku’s point, and said, “You’re right, but have you considered that after our defeat, would the people of the Immortal Demon Domain let Dragon Slayer Island go?”
Mo Ku thought about it and responded, “Are you saying the Immortal Demon Domain is very likely to attack Dragon Slayer Island? But I haven’t heard about any plans to attack Dragon Slayer Island.”
“Attacking Dragon Slayer Island is inevitable; it’s just a matter of when. They need to recover after breaking both Heavenly City and Immortal City. They won’t leave Dragon Slayer Island alone and will inevitably attack. Defending Dragon Slayer Island isn’t necessarily a good thing.”
Mo Ku nodded in agreent.
“Rather than tying ourselves to Dragon Slayer Island, it’s better to let Shi Yin Zun, the country bumpkin who’s been dreaming of becoming the Island Master, have it,” Longhun said, licking the blood off the back of his hand.
Mo Ku suddenly understood and said, “If the Immortal Demon Domain attacks Dragon Slayer Island, shouldn’t we prepare properly? We can’t just sit and watch them take Dragon Slayer Island!”
“Of course we can’t let them take Dragon Slayer Island easily, but we won’t be the bait. Since Shi Yin Zun wants to be the bait so badly, let him! ”
“Bait?” Mo Ku seed confused.
“Yes, bait. Without bait, how would they ever co?”
“What’s your plan? With our current strength, we can’t face the Immortal Demon Domain. Even if Mitra Monk and those who have survived return, it still wouldn’t be enough.”
Longhun responded with a cold smile, “Who said anything about letting Mitra Monk and his people return?”
“If they don’t return, our strength will be even less sufficient.”
“Of course, relying on ourselves is not enough, but solutions can be thought of. We have plenty of ti.” Longhun continued, “I believe, Immortal City and Demon Palace City need to rebuild. Even partial rebuilding would give us about two months before they attack Dragon Slayer Island, so we’ve got two months.”
“But I really don’t know where we can borrow strength to help us.”
“We do have it. Isn’t the Sea Demon a good force?”
“The Sea Demon? It’s not obedient to anyone. The Demon God used all his tricks to no avail. How can we get help from the Sea Demon, especially in such a short ti?”
“I don’t need him to obey . I just need him to cause destruction.” Longhun had long wanted to get rid of Shi Yin Zun. When the Mutant Winged Dragon was alive, he had suggested killing Shi Yin Zun, but his father did not listen to him. This ti, if used well, it could be two birds with one stone. For now, let Shi Yin Zun enjoy his mont of triumph.
Mo Ku knew that the Sea Demon was not soone ordinary people could handle. Back then, it was the Sea Demon who sealed the Demon God under the sea.
Longhun asked, “Any news from the Wastelands?”
“Taking advantage of our defeat, Gua Zhengnie suddenly attacked and captured Sky Domain City and Tianle City, and is now called the New Third Demon. He wants to regain control of Wasteland City and unify the Wastelands.”
“What about the New City Sect?”
“The folks from the New City Sect are afraid of them gaining montum. Jiang Zhuge has already taken a large group of people into the Wastelands. He probably wants to deal with Gua Zhengnie. Your brother, on the other hand, is still in the Central Plains.”
“He is not my brother!” Longhun retorted angrily.
Mo Ku continued, “Though Wei Sisan is dead, his daughter Wei Yiling seems to have been paralyzed from the waist down. She’s now confined to a wheelchair. Ye Chen is taking her around the Central Plains looking for a renowned doctor. They probably won’t return to the Wastelands any ti soon.”
“Good that she’s paralyzed.” Longhun smirked coldly, then asked, “What about my father’s body?”
“I heard your brother…” Mo Ku hastily stopped and said, “Ye Chen supposedly took it to Demon Palace City. He was probably buried there.”
“I will never forgive him,” Longhun continued. “Tell the Mitra Monk and his crew to stop lingering in the Central Plains.”
“Should they return here?”
“No, there’s no use for him to co back. It’s actually quite risky here. We’re enough for this place. Tell them to head to the Wastelands.”
“To the Wastelands?” Mo Ku looked confused.
“Yes, the Wastelands are in chaos with the New City Sect and the new Third Demon fighting; the Immortal and Demon Realm cannot just intervene. It’s actually the safest place. Tell them to go there, not to rush, and wait for my ssage. Don’t blow their cover. If anything cos up, I will get in touch with them.”
Mo Ku couldn’t figure out what Longhun was thinking.
“Don’t think it’s over because you’ve won. I haven’t agreed yet. This is just the beginning,” Longhun said, gritting his teeth.
Mo Ku handed a handkerchief to Longhun, who wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Longhun asked, “Is ng Xiuluo alright?”
“She should have escaped as well.”
“Let her stick with the Mitra Monk then,” Longhun stood up and said, “We won’t have much ti left. We should prepare. If Shi Yin Zun wants the position of the Island Master this much, let him have it. Their happiness won’t last long.”
Upon hearing Longhun’s analysis, Mo Ku gradually cald down.
Longhun added, “So, it may seem that Shi Yin Zun has gained an advantage, yet it might not necessarily be a good thing. If he’s so obsessed with being the Island Master, let him enjoy it. It’s ti we do him a favor.”
Mo Ku laughed at his words.
“Have the Mitra Monk get to know the situation in the Wastelands. Don’t rush things. I need you to prepare so ships for . I have to hit the sea.”
Mo Ku nodded, already figuring out Longhun’s plan.
“I guarantee it won’t take more than three months,” Longhun confidently stated as he started to make his own preparations.
The recent wars have shattered Immortal City and Heavenly City. How could the people from the Immortal and Demon Realm let the Dragon Slayer Island go untouched? Anyone who stops to think about it could tell that it’s not possible.
It’s unbelievable that a bumpkin like Shi Yin Zun remains oblivious. The people from the Immortal and Demon Realm haven’t co over yet because they haven’t had ti to regroup. Once they do, they will surely co after Dragon Slayer Island.
“I have been struggling to shake off the burden of Dragon Slayer Island. How can Shi Yin Zun be so foolish to fight for the title of Island Master? Anyone with a brain would realize that it’s definitely a calamity.” Longhun shook his head and laughed.
“If you put it that way, I understand completely,” Mo Ku said. “The Master has always wanted to get rid of this damn Shi Yin Zun. I think this is a good opportunity. We can let the Immortal and Demon Realm take care of him.”
“Good, you’re flexible and promising.”
“Before, we were forced to act against our own people. There would be gossip behind our backs. Now that we can have the people of the Immortal and Demon Realm do this for us, things have gotten so much better.”
“Yes, we should plan it carefully.”
“If we play our cards right, we might be able to kill two birds with one stone.”
“Good, that’s what I want. I want to kill two birds with one stone. Shi Yin Zun doesn’t respect
at all. My father has died, and he didn’t even shed a tear. His first thought was whether he could beco the Island Master. I will make sure he cries his eyes out by then.”
“Alright, got it. I’ll have the ships ready for you as soon as possible.”
“Okay, I need to find the Sea Demon and have soone monitor the Central Plains. I believe there will be changes within three months. We have three months to prepare, and that should be enough,” Longhun said.
“Alright, let’s cheerfully hand over the title of Island Master to Shi Yin Zun.”
“Of course, we should let them enjoy it. Otherwise, we would be letting their efforts go to waste.”
The two shadows quickly disappeared into the dark night.
The surroundings fell silent, with only the roaring waves audible. The sky had turned completely black.
The sea breeze was blowing fiercely.
