Chapter 1559 - 33: Dragon Palace
"Such a powerful Xuanyuan Ancient Starship...".
Seeing the Xuanyuan Ancient Starship so formidable, destroying an enemy fleet in the blink of an eye, Lin Feng was very pleased.
Such a mighty starship!
Just one ship would be enough to navigate the Starry Sky World freely in the future.
The Xuanyuan Ancient Starship continued to advance deeper.
Before long.
The Xuanyuan Ancient Starship reached the depths of the ocean.
In the distance, one could see the endless palaces.
But currently, prohibitions guarded the palaces.
...
"Young Master, the Dragon Palace has arrived...". said the Rock Giant Demon.
Lin Feng nodded, standing on the deck, looking towards the Dragon Palace.
This Dragon Palace.
Truly worthy of being a Cultivation Sacred Land.
Dragon Qi surged.
Purple mist spouted.
Just like coming to the legendary Immortal Realm.
"Boom boom boom...". At this time, the war drums sounded.
Inside the Dragon Palace, densely packed Sea Clan soldiers assembled.
On the square, a full force of three hundred thousand troops assembled, these troops boarded thirty ancient warships rushing forward.
Leading them was none other than Dragon King Ao Lie.
"Lin Feng, you trespass into my Dragon Palace, destroy ten of my ancient warships, kill my Sea Clan cultivators, do you intend to start a war with my Dragon Palace?".
Ao Lie’s expression was somber as he looked at Lin Feng.
Ao Lie appeared to be in his forties but in truth, he had cultivated for two hundred seventy thousand years, now in the Seventh Layer Heaven of Void God Realm.
At the prime of his strength.
However, Ao Lie was inherently cunning, adept at plotting and scheming.
So, Lin Feng had no fondness for Ao Lie.
He sneered and said, "And so what if a war starts? The East Sea is the only area left not under my Desire Kingdom’s control. How can one allow others to sleep soundly on my territory? If the Dragon Palace is destroyed, the East Sea will be unified".
Ao Lie said, "It’s not that easy to destroy my Dragon Palace. My Dragon Palace has its own foundation to deal with you all. This war will ultimately lead to mutual destruction, have you thought it through?".
Lin Feng laughed heartily and said, "And so what if it’s mutual destruction? I can continuously recruit soldiers and horses, but your Dragon Palace, surrounded by my Desire Kingdom’s army, can’t receive reinforcements, isn’t its fall just a matter of time?".
Ao Lie coldly replied, "It would be no problem to last a few hundred years, we could just wear you down. Who knows, maybe your Desire Kingdom will collapse first. With so many things happening, now Desire Kingdom prospers, but in a few years, it might decline; I’ve seen such trends too many times".
Lin Feng shrugged, "My Desire Kingdom will be eternally undying, so no need for Dragon King to worry about our survival".
"And Ao Lie, you overestimate your Dragon Palace of the East Sea. Now Jiuzhou Continent cultivators, Extraterrestrial Life, and even Heavenly Demons are descending on Heavenly Martial Continent, I think many among them are interested in your Dragon Palace’s treasures. Perhaps I could cooperate with them? With their support, how long can your Dragon Palace last?".
"You...". Ao Lie’s expression shifted unpredictably.
He said, "Lin Feng, in the past you almost lost your life fighting Heavenly Demons during Space-time Reverse Flow, and now you want to cooperate with those Heavenly Demons, Extraterrestrial Life, and even Jiuzhou cultivators against the Dragon Palace. Your behavior of colluding with outsiders to suppress native forces of Heavenly Martial Continent, what’s the difference from traitors?".
Lin Feng calmly said, "Not all Extraterrestrial Life and Jiuzhou cultivators are here to invade Heavenly Martial Continent. Some want to help, and there are many neutral ones, and those are the people I seek to cooperate with. Since my partners aren’t here to invade Heavenly Martial Continent, how could I be betraying it?".
Ao Lie’s expression fluctuated, he said, "Lin Feng, between us isn’t an undying hatred. All grudges are due to the struggle for interests. There are no eternal enemies nor eternal friends in this world. How about we each take a step back, sit down, and negotiate quietly? You wouldn’t want to see the East Sea World, just regaining peace, turn into a river of blood once more because of our forces’ desperate battle, would you?".
This Dragon Palace of the East Sea possesses Emperor Weapons, making it hard to attack.
If a war truly breaks out, as Ao Lie said, it will inevitably be rivers of blood, countless dead and wounded.
This is indeed something Lin Feng doesn’t wish to see.
Lin Feng’s original intention was to extort the Dragon Palace of the East Sea and plunder its resources.
Now that Ao Lie has brought it up, Lin Feng follows the trend and says, "Negotiation isn’t impossible, it depends on whether your Dragon Palace of the East Sea is sincere!".
Hearing negotiation was possible, Ao Lie also breathed a sigh of relief.
He smiled slightly and said, "Our Dragon Palace of the East Sea is naturally full of sincerity, why not move to the Dragon Palace and sit down for detailed discussions?".
Lin Feng said, "Then open the prohibition and let my ancient starship sail inside".
Ao Lie said with a forced smile, "No need for so many people for negotiation, right?".
Lin Feng chuckled, "Seems the Dragon King lacks sincerity!".
The Dragon King’s expression shifted unpredictably, eventually gritting his teeth and said, "I naturally have sincerity, and this king also believes in Young Master Lin’s credibility".
He waved his hand.
Immediately dozens of Dragon Palace Spirit Array Masters opened the Great Array.
The Xuanyuan Ancient Starship sailed inside the Great Array and finally docked on the square.
Lin Feng had the Star Giant Beast guard the Xuanyuan Ancient Starship.
And he, along with Poison Ancestor, entered the palace.
Inside this palace, Sea Clan beauties moved around.
Each dressed provocatively, full of allure.
Ao Lie smiled and said, "Young Master Lin hasn’t enjoyed the finest beauties of the Sea Clan yet, right? I shall gift you a hundred Sea Clan beauties as maids, how does that sound?".
In the Cultivator World, gifting women to each other is very common.
But Lin Feng wasn’t interested in this.
He said indifferently, "No need for that, let’s directly start the negotiation. I don’t have many demands, just that my Desire Country takes one-third of the Dragon Palace Treasure Vault treasures".
"You’re dreaming!". Third Prince Ao Bing immediately shouted.
"Who do you think you are to yell in front of me? Dragon King, is this how you educate your son? No manners, no understanding of rules". Lin Feng’s expression suddenly darkened.
Ao Bing was furious.
Back then he sent people to encircle Lin Feng, now just a few years later, Lin Feng has become the high-ranking East Sea Cultivator Army Leader, filling Ao Bing with jealousy and hatred.
Ao Lie glared at Ao Bing and said, "Why don’t you quickly apologize to Young Master Lin?".
"Father King!". Ao Bing gritted his teeth, unable to apologize to Lin Feng.
"Hit him!".
Ao Lie’s face suddenly darkened, and a cold shout escaped.
Immediately a Dragon Palace guard approached Ao Bing, slapping his face fiercely.
Ao Bing was stunned by the hit.
"Father King, you let someone hit me?". Ao Bing looked at the Dragon King in disbelief, the father king who favored him the most sent someone to hit him.
This was hard for Ao Bing to accept.
"Take him away...". Ao Lie waved his hand, and immediately several guards took Ao Bing away.
