Chapter 2986: Mermaid Five Sisters, Red Flame Fish Lineage Young Lord, Chi Tian

After listening, Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained utterly calm.

He had no interest whatsoever in some great war between the human race and the scaled sea tribes.

If it followed the usual pattern of a Child of Fortune.

Eighty percent of the time it would be helping the human race fight the sea tribes or something similar.

But Jun Xiaoyao simply didn't have that kind of leisure.

Besides, only the Sea God Hall was destroyed; a single Sea God Hall couldn't represent the human race.

"As expected, every sea has its own Sea God." Jun Xiaoyao shook his head.

Sensing that Jun Xiaoyao's demeanor hadn't changed much, the Black Flood Dragon King also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, Jun Xiaoyao was human; if he flew into a rage, killing and roasting it for barbecue wasn't out of the question.

"Then, my lord, what next...?" the Black Flood Dragon King probed.

"Go to that cave dwelling." Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Yes." The Black Flood Dragon King acknowledged, carrying Jun Xiaoyao and Sang Yu through the breaking waves.

This vast sea region stirred with waves because of the emergence of a sea-surface cave dwelling.

At the same time, in another adjacent sea region.

A similar situation of a Sea Region King imposing a blockade was also occurring.

"You're really too overbearing; a sea-surface cave dwelling isn't something your lord can monopolize."

Over a stretch of sea, the sound of conflict rose.

Those speaking were living cultivators from various powers.

Opposite them stood a group of beings with human bodies and crocodile heads.

Their bodies were covered in armor, their heads ferocious crocodile heads.

They likewise came from under the command of a certain Sea Region King.

"Those unafraid of death can make a move!" the human-bodied crocodile-headed being shouted coldly.

At this moment, not far away, the sound of waves being split apart — *hua lala* — suddenly rang out.

Some beings looked over.

Floating up from the sea was, shockingly, a crystalline, dazzling seashell.

That seashell was incomparably huge, like a palace.

Upon drawing near, that seashell opened.

Within, five graceful, slender figures emerged.

They were five women beautiful as flowers and jade, each possessing distinct charm, beautiful enough to refresh the heart and delight the spirit.

Only their lower halves were not a pair of beautiful legs, but fish tails of varying colors, flashing with gorgeous scales.

Shockingly, they were the Mermaid Clan's five sisters who had previously appeared in Broken Sky City.

They had also unexpectedly learned of the news that a sea-surface cave dwelling had emerged here, so they rushed over directly.

"It's the Mermaid lineage!"

"So those are the Mermaid Clan's five sisters; truly, each possesses a beauty that could topple cities."

Living cultivators from surrounding powers exclaimed in admiration.

"Since a cave dwelling has emerged, it should be fair competition for all; why are you blocking the way here?"

One of the younger sisters among the five spoke up.

Seeing the Mermaid lineage appear, the eyes of the crocodile-headed human-bodied beings also narrowed slightly.

If it were merely the Mermaid lineage, that might not amount to much.

But this lineage produced a Mermaid Empress, extremely strong, a titan among Emperors.

Even their own lord had a gap compared to the titan level.

"Hmph, this isn't your Mermaid lineage's sphere of influence, is it? What business is it of yours?" the crocodile-headed human-bodied being said coldly.

"Heaven and earth's opportunities go to the fated; even the Sea Crocodile King behind you cannot be this overbearing."

The eldest sister among the five Mermaid sisters said, her voice deep and calm.

"The blockade of the sea region was jointly decided by several Kings!" the crocodile-headed human-bodied being said coldly.

Even if it was the Mermaid lineage, they had no intention of letting them pass.

"You..."

The five Mermaid sisters were all quite angry.

Their lineage's Mermaid Empress, after listening to Jun Xiaoyao's sermon in Broken Sky City, had been frequently entering secluded cultivation.

So it was impossible for her to appear at any moment.

The five Mermaid sisters glanced at each other, their expressions also slightly ugly.

It seemed today, not to mention gaining any opportunities.

Even approaching that sea-surface cave dwelling was impossible.

Just at this moment.

From a distant sea region, the sound of splashing waves rang out.

A fiery red tide spread over, steaming up vast clouds of mist.

As if a sea of fire was shifting over, carrying scorching heat.

If one looked closely, within it were shockingly one big fish after another, whole bodies crimson red, as if burning with flames.

"The Red Flame Fish lineage!"

Seeing this, a being present spoke up.

The Chiyan Fish lineage is also a prominent clan in the nearby sea, with an astonishing number of members.

It is said that within the ancient volcanic crater at the bottom of the Taigu Star Sea, they naturally possess fire-path runes.

The most renowned figure in their clan is known as Dongxuan Laozu, whose methods are astonishing and whose strength is extraordinary.

Within the Chiyan Fish school, several humanoid figures appeared.

Leading them was a man clad in crimson-scaled armor, his entire body inscribed with flowing runes, radiating crimson divine radiance.

His crimson hair fluttered in the wind, giving him a remarkably heroic appearance.

He is none other than the young master of the Chiyan Fish lineage, named Chitian, whose cultivation is at the Quasi-Emperor realm.

His eyes also resemble glowing steel beads, with three feet of crimson radiance exhaling and bursting forth.

His gaze first swept over the five mermaid sisters, a flash of crimson light passing through his eyes.

Then he turned his gaze toward the group of crocodile-headed humanoid beings, slightly cupping his hands as he spoke.

"Gentlemen, I am Chitian, the young master of the Chiyan Fish lineage."

"Your Sea Crocodile King once discussed the Dao and exchanged insights with my clan's Dongxuan Laozu— they got along quite well."

"Might I trouble you to grant us passage today?"

Upon hearing Chitian's words, the crocodile-headed beings exchanged glances.

Chitian's words were indeed true.

Their king had indeed once interacted with Dongxuan Laozu of the Chiyan Fish lineage.

Not to speak of deep friendship, but at least there was some connection.

After a moment's thought, the leading crocodile-headed being spoke.

"Since you are the young master of the Chiyan Fish lineage, then please, proceed."

After considering the stakes involved, they decided to allow the Chiyan Fish lineage to pass.

Upon hearing this, Chitian's face broke into a smile.

Moreover, he felt a surge of pride.

Then, Chitian's gaze suddenly shifted toward the Mermaid lineage.

Gazing at the graceful and alluring five sisters, Chitian spoke with a tone laced with amusement.

"So you are the five fairies of the Mermaid lineage— it seems you also wish to visit that sea cave abode."

"Would you like this young master to put in a good word for you?"

Chitian's face bore a hint of a smile.

However, the five mermaid sisters each showed a flicker of disgust on their lovely faces.

The reason is simple: previously, this Chitian had pursued them.

After all, the Chiyan Fish lineage and the Mermaid lineage are also considered closely related ethnic groups.

And this Chitian, relying on his status as a descendant of Dongxuan Laozu and as the young master of the Chiyan Fish lineage, possesses an extraordinary standing.

He is extremely greedy, and in fact, he immediately wanted all five of them.

The five mermaid sisters naturally could not agree.

After being rejected, Chitian has held this grudge ever since.

And now, he has finally seized the opportunity.

As for this, the five mermaid sisters naturally paid no heed—they would never bow their heads to Chitian over this.

Seeing this, Chitian did not grow angry; instead, the amusement in his eyes intensified.

"What, haven't made up your minds yet?"

"This is a rare cave abode— are you really willing to miss it like this? As long as you plead with this young master, I will naturally help you five fairies without holding past grievances."

Chitian's face bore a faint air of self-satisfaction and teasing.

The five mermaid sisters' lovely faces showed no expression.

Even if they miss this opportunity, they will absolutely not bow their heads to Chitian.

Chitian did not mind— in fact, the more the five mermaid sisters acted this way, the more he enjoyed it.

Who told them to reject his pursuit back then? Now they finally realize what they have missed.

And just at this moment.

Boom— boom— boom!

In the distant sky where sea and heaven meet, suddenly vast layers of dark clouds rolled in, pressing down like a black cloud invasion.

A mighty and murderous Emperor-realm pressure swept forth, kicking up waves ten thousand zhang high!

Faintly visible, a colossal black flood dragon soared through clouds and mist as it came!
