408. Chapter 408: You monster, what exactly are you trying to do?

"How is it now? Where has the Nine Nether Profound Snake reached?"

Su Chen said as he walked.

After exiting the tent, Luo Shen, Yi Zhuyue, and the others were already waiting there.

Before Meng Huo could even open his mouth to speak, he heard a heaven-piercing roar from afar.

Su Chen hurriedly ran toward the sound, and the others followed his footsteps to the source of the noise.

They saw a man dressed in black robes standing there; his gaze was cold and grim, possessing the aura unique to cold-blooded beasts, and his pupils were vertical and golden-yellow.

Behind him followed a group of strange-looking monsters, including snakes, octopuses, crabs, and others.

As soon as the octopus monster saw Su Chen and the others arrive, it immediately danced with excitement and complained to the Nine Nether Profound Snake: "My Lord, it is this brat who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth; the people beside him are the ones who bullied me today."

These words were spoken with a sense of grievance, and its face was so twisted in anger that its original appearance could no longer be seen.

The moment Su Chen saw the Nine Nether Profound Snake, he couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.

For no other reason than that the cultivation of the Nine Nether Profound Snake before him was at most at the Quasi-Emperor Initial Stage; just looking at its cultivation, it was definitely not an envoy of the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor.

Thinking of how expectant he had been just a moment ago, Su Chen felt that his expectations had been in vain.

There was no need for him to even make a move against this kind of person.

Su Chen was sizing up the Nine Nether Profound Snake, and the Nine Nether Profound Snake was likewise sizing up Su Chen; its golden-yellow eyes swept over everyone present.

After its gaze landed on Yi Zhuyue, it couldn't help but curl the corners of its mouth—what a stunning beauty.

"You are the fellow who came to Nanman?"

The Nine Nether Profound Snake couldn't help but laugh eerily.

It could also tell that Su Chen's cultivation was only at the Great Saint Realm.

Thinking of the importance Youji Nuhuang placed on this, the Nine Nether Profound Snake even felt that the women beside him were more likely to be the people Youji Nuhuang was looking for.

Therefore, it did not take Su Chen seriously.

Su Chen saw the contempt in the eyes of the Nine Nether Profound Snake and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"It's me, so what?"

He asked nonchalantly, as if the person before him was someone of no importance.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake was enraged by this attitude; having commanded the Sea Clan in Nanman for so many years, it had never seen anyone so bold and ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

Thinking of this, it gave a cold laugh and clapped its hands twice, and a crab brought forward a woman who was tied up tightly.

"You ugly thing, let me go!"

The woman immediately struggled violently, looking at the Nine Nether Profound Snake with an indignant expression.

When Meng Huo saw the woman's face, his hands subconsciously clenched into fists, and he almost rushed over, but fortunately, he was held back by Su Chen.

This woman was none other than Hua Gudu.

Hua Gudu's wheat-colored face carried a stubbornness, and her body was wrapped in ropes, unable to move.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake found her too noisy, so it simply waved its hand and threw her onto the ground.

"You monster, what exactly are you trying to do? For so many years, we have lived in peace, even retreating again and again, yet you actually openly..."

Meng Huo could not continue, his face turning livid.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake seemed to have heard a massive joke and laughed gloomily.

"This world has always been the law of the jungle; since you cannot defeat me, how can you say you have been retreating again and again?"

The Nine Nether Profound Snake looked at Meng Huo quietly, its eyes filled with mockery. Meng Huo's throat choked, and for a moment, he actually did not know how to refute.

"The law of the jungle?" Su Chen asked with a smile.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake did not understand; things had reached this point, shouldn't a normal person be begging for mercy in a panic?

Why was this brat still so calm and composed?

Was he a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger, with a heart higher than the sky, or did he truly possess some strength? Thinking of this, the Nine Nether Profound Snake's eyes carried a hint of probing.

"Who exactly are you? Do you have the Divine Dragon Martial Soul?"

When it asked this question, Su Chen understood that even if this person was not an envoy of the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor, they were inextricably linked to the envoys of the Heavenly Dao Great Emperor.

Thinking of this, Su Chen tilted his head casually, and the Divine Dragon Martial Soul instantly emerged from behind him.

The majestic five-clawed golden dragon continuously rose and tumbled, radiating dominance, and a heaven-piercing roar instantly shook everyone's hearts.

Meng Huo and the others who were close by even felt this powerful pressure and were unable to move.

The contempt on the Nine Nether Profound Snake's face vanished, replaced by a look of terror.

As a Profound Snake, although it had lived for thousands upon thousands of years, it had not even transformed into a flood dragon, let alone become a Dragon.

Now that a True Dragon had suddenly appeared before it, the immense pressure swept over it, and the innate bloodline suppression left it unable to even move.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake subconsciously wanted to prostrate itself on the ground, but it remained frozen in place, lacking even the strength to kneel.

"What's wrong? Didn't you want to find me? Now that I have appeared before you, why are you not moving at all?"

Su Chen smiled as he retracted the Divine Dragon Martial Soul, looking at the Nine Nether Profound Snake nonchalantly.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake gritted its teeth hard, beginning to regret that it had brought so few people; now, it was likely a problem just to defeat one Su Chen.

But fortunately, they still had a hostage.

Thinking of this, the Nine Nether Profound Snake hurriedly signaled to the people beside it.

Hua Gudu struggled desperately, but she could not break free from the restraints; instead, they only tightened further.

"I warn you, Hua Gudu is still in my hands. If you want me to let her go, then obediently come over and don't play any tricks."

The Nine Nether Profound Snake gritted its teeth and said indignantly.

It looked at Su Chen as if it were looking at its ticket to the Immortal World, its gaze filled with a hint of covetousness.

Su Chen was so disgusted by this look that he couldn't speak; things had reached this point, yet he couldn't believe the Nine Nether Profound Snake was still so delusional.

Thinking of this, Su Chen walked nonchalantly in front of the Nine Nether Profound Snake and tilted his head.

"Are you saying it's like this? I'm in front of you now, what can you do?" Su Chen asked with a chuckle.

Seeing Su Chen go over, Meng Huo instinctively wanted to pull Su Chen back.

Although he had just witnessed the power of Su Chen's Divine Dragon Martial Soul, in his eyes, both the Nine Nether Profound Snake and Su Chen were very formidable, and he could not discern the depth of their strength.

Lv Luo kindly held Meng Huo back and whispered, "Don't worry, it's just a sea snake; Master can handle it."

The renowned Nine Nether Profound Snake was actually being called a sea snake; if the Nine Nether Profound Snake's attention were on Lv Luo, it would surely be so angry that smoke would pour from its seven orifices.

Seeing that the others were so confident, Meng Huo instinctively felt at ease as well and did not continue to stop him.

The Nine Nether Profound Snake's covetous gaze lingered on Su Chen; it rubbed its hands together, as if it had already seen the Immortal Gate opening to it.

Just as Su Chen slowly raised his hand, the Nine Nether Profound Snake was still somewhat confused, only to see deep blue flames ignite on Su Chen's hand.

The temperature of those flames was so high that it seemed capable of melting a person instantly. (End of chapter)
