Chapter 32: Sea Shark Empress Comes for Revenge, Master Li Is a Spirit Master!

~7 min read 1,316 words

The wine is good wine.

Three rounds in, the wine jar gradually emptied.

The three Huo family members all couldn't hold their liquor; Huo Peiting was the worst, her face flushed, only feeling her little head dizzy.

Only Li Qingran still had clear eyes, no different from normal.

Huo Zhongjue admired even more: "Master Li, it seems besides Spirit Fishing, in drinking too, I, I still need to ask you for more guidance!"

"Come, let me toast you another cup!"

One cup drained.

Huo Zhongjue took out a check, placed it on the table, and said solemnly:

"Master Li, this is a check for one hundred million, cashable at any bank in Huaguo, please accept it, it's a little token from this old man."

Huo Peiting and Huo Yichen on the side both silently watched Li Qingran, wanting to see through Li Qingran's inner thoughts.

One hundred million, which young person could not be moved.

Huo Yichen always believed money could solve ninety percent of troubles; if the remaining troubles couldn't be solved, it meant the money wasn't enough.

Unfortunately, both of them misjudged the person.

Li Qingran shook his head, didn't glance at it; from start to finish, his expression didn't change much, as if what was before him wasn't a hundred million check, but just an ordinary scrap of paper.

Huo Zhongjue frowned: "It was I who was presumptuous, Master Li, please forgive the offense, we are merely mundane people."

Huo Yichen felt displeased; he thought Li Qingran felt a hundred million was too little, wanted more.

Huo Peiting was dizzy and muddled, not knowing Li Qingran didn't want money, could it be he wanted her to offer herself?

Li Qingran smiled: "Old Huo, I don't lack money; the Huo Family deals in medicinal herbs, if you really feel bad, just convert this hundred million into spirit herbs for me."

Huo Zhongjue was overjoyed: "No problem! Whatever spirit herbs Master Li wants, make a list, I'll have someone gather them all for you."

He was just worried Li Qingran wouldn't accept.

Take someone's hand, your hand shortens; eat someone's mouth, your mouth softens.

Li Qingran didn't waste words, directly listed several spirit herbs needed for refining the Aptitude Immortal Pill and Soul-Returning Pill to Huo Zhongjue.

Huo Zhongjue agreed in one breath; those only the Huo Family had, he'd deliver tomorrow.

And just as they drank and ate, tonight's Black Sea seemed somewhat unusual.

Suddenly, a gale rose on the sea surface, whipping up huge waves.

Black waves shining snow-bright under moonlight surged toward shore one after another; faintly visible in the waves were what seemed like scales.

Immediately, a barefoot black-robed woman appeared on the reef by the shore.

Eyes flashing with autumn waves, supple chest jade rabbits bouncing.

The sea with huge waves and gale, instantly became calm.

In the private room, Li Qingran drinking wine, suddenly seemed to sense something, looked toward the door.

Just then, a clamor came from outside.

"Miss, who are you looking for, you can't go in!"

Bang!

The heavy wooden door suddenly opened, a black-robed woman showing only half her face appeared before them, her wet blue-black long hair still dripping water.

"Sir, sorry, this lady insisted on coming in, couldn't stop her." The waiter said embarrassedly.

The woman looked at Huo Zhongjue word by word, then at Huo Peiting, grinned, smiling sinisterly and terrifyingly: "Finally found you."

Huo Peiting frowned tightly: "Auntie, did you go to the wrong room?"

Huo Zhongjue seeing the woman, his face changed drastically, the wine mostly sobered up.

This aura, a nightmare branded in the heart.

Sea Shark People!

Huo Zhongjue's gaze didn't move, replied to the waiter: "She's our guest, help close the door, thanks!"

He lowered his voice, told Huo Peiting: "If anything happens later, run immediately, understand?"

This woman was precisely the Sea Shark Empress Jiao Qiu Shui, also the mother of the Sea Shark Person killed by Li Qingran that day.

Jiao Qiu Shui's gaze cold and stern, like a blade sweeping over Huo Zhongjue and Huo Peiting: "Old geezer, my son was killed by you, right?"

Huo Yichen couldn't see through Jiao Qiu Shui's depth at all, slightly arrogant tone: "Who are you, my dad killed your son? Big sis, you're really funny! You trying to scam our Huo Family?"

Li Qingran was speechless in his heart.

Truly, beat the small one, the old one comes.

He naturally saw this woman was a Sea Shark Person, and her strength reached Ninth Grade Spirit Master Peak.

If Huo Yichen knew Jiao Qiu Shui's identity and strength, how would he dare speak to her like that.

"Shut up!" Huo Zhongjue stood up, warily staring at Jiao Qiu Shui, said to Huo Yichen: "What person? This is a Sea Shark Person!"

Huo Yichen managed most of Huo Family's business, had seen many big scenes, heart firm as rock, wouldn't easily panic.

But now hearing Huo Zhongjue's words, his face instantly turned pale, he exclaimed: "What, Sea Shark Person!"

Huo Zhongjue worthy of one who's seen the world, already forced himself calm: "She's here for revenge."

Hearing Huo Zhongjue's tacit admission of being the killer, Jiao Qiu Shui could no longer suppress her grief and anger, rage surging to the crown, merely taking a step forward, a powerful aura burst forth.

Boom!

A shockwave centered on Jiao Qiu Shui swept out.

All tables and chairs in the room, bowls, cups, wine plates, all shattered!

Following that, the three Huo Family members suddenly discovered their bodies actually couldn't move.

This surrounding space seemed to have been sealed.

Jiao Qiu Shui looked at everyone in the private room, smile ferocious: "Don't worry, I won't let you die easily; this Empress will take you back to the Shark People Clan, for my clansmen to toy with!"

Huo Zhongjue's face changed drastically, he cried out in shock inwardly: "Space Lock, Imperial Spirit Master? Sea Shark People Royal Family?"

The Imperial Spirit Realm, one to nine stars, can remain in the void without external aid, and possesses the ability to create Space Locks.

The cultivation base this woman before him displayed was already that of an Imperial Spirit Master.

A Sea Shark Person of this level was necessarily of the royal family among them, equivalent to an emperor among Sea Shark People.

At this moment, she actually appeared here, giving Huo Zhongjue a feeling of collapse.

There was only one possibility: that day, the Sea Shark Person they encountered held a special status and position in the Sea Shark People clan.

This was troublesome.

Jiao Qiushui's aura erupted, her black hat flipped open without wind, revealing an exquisite face.

This time coming ashore, the Dragon King made a demand of her: not to indiscriminately kill innocents, not to involve others.

Jiao Qiushui looked at Li Qingran once more, licked her red lips, and laughed strangely:

"I can tell, you're not of their clan bloodline, you're an ordinary person.

Originally, this Emperor could let you go.

But unfortunately, you're too handsome.

Little handsome guy, this Emperor doesn't want to let you leave.

Come back to the Shark People Palace with this Emperor, from now on you'll be specially responsible for warming this Emperor's bed, hahaha..."

Huo Zhongjue felt guilt in his heart.

The Sea Shark People Empress's strength probably infinitely approached the Imperial Spirit Venerable.

Even if Li Qingran was a Youth Master, he still couldn't reverse the situation, could only let himself be manipulated, confined by the Space Lock.

If, tonight he hadn't invited Li Qingran to eat, he wouldn't have implicated Li Qingran.

If, that day he hadn't gone out to fish for spirits, Huo Peiting hadn't bought blood bait, it wouldn't have attracted the Sea Shark People.

Everything, all of it, originated because of him.

Just then, a faint, light laugh rang out.

"Warm your bed? Did you ask for my opinion?"
