Chapter 109: The Divine Devil Dojo, Everything Has a Price!
The night passed without incident.
Jiang Taixuan rose from bed only after the sun was high in the sky. With Ximen the Fatty already at the dojo, he did not need to worry too much.
By the wooden table crafted by Ahuai, Li Yuanba, Li Guang, and Divine Marquis Zhuge were chatting idly.
Ximen the Fatty sat between the three with a miserable look, his face bruised and swollen.
“Has Li Yuanba left seclusion?” Jiang Taixuan walked over and took a seat on a chair.
“Field Master, I have successfully entered the Dao Fruit stage,” Li Yuanba said with a faint smile, his aura completely withdrawn, not leaking a hint.
“Brother Xuan,” Ximen the Fatty said, voice full of grievance.
Li Yuanba’s expression remained unchanged as he said calmly, “I did it on behalf of Wu Song.”
Jiang Taixuan decisively ignored Ximen the Fatty and said, “Since you have broken through to Dao Fruit, we should head to Cloud Water City to establish the Branch Arena.”
The three Gods and Demons nodded. Ximen the Fatty very much wanted to interject, but after glancing at the three, he shrank back and kept his mouth shut.
“Before that, let’s handle three little pests,” Li Yuanba suddenly sneered and leaped into the air. In the sky, three figures came rushing over.
“The Qingshan Sect,” Jiang Taixuan murmured.
Li Guang and Divine Marquis Zhuge watched indifferently, showing no intention of interfering.
Thud! Thud!
Footsteps sounded as Yun Feng approached with his hands clasped behind his back. “Everything within Great Cloud’s borders belongs to the Great Cloud Kingdom. The Divine Devil Dojo intends to reb—”
“Hold on,” Jiang Taixuan frowned, interrupting him. “Did you not receive an education?”
Yun Feng was stunned. What does this have to do with my education? I am a prince. How could I be uneducated?
“Come, let me teach you.” Jiang Taixuan toyed with his fingers and said calmly, “Under heaven, all lands belong to the king. Within the boundaries of the land, all are the king’s servants. That’s how it should be said.”
“You…” Yun Feng flushed red. Damn it, that stung.
“Field Master has such literary talent. Ziling admires you,” applause sounded as Yang Ziling strode over.
“Miss Yang, let me teach you something as well,” Jiang Taixuan said with a faint smile.
“Oh? What will the Field Master teach me?” Yang Ziling asked, puzzled.
“One phrase suits you well.” Jiang Taixuan slowly stood up, exuding a strange imposing aura. “Everything in this world belongs to your emperor!”
Yang Ziling was stunned for a moment, then forced out a slight smile. “Field Master jokes. Ziling is loyal and patriotic.”
“Forget it, I can’t be bothered with you,” Jiang Taixuan waved his hand. “My Divine Devil Dojo only does business. I have no intention of meddling in your affairs. I only guaranteed the Cloud Order for five days. Make the people from Qingshan Sect leave, and I will pretend this never happened.”
“Ridiculous. You ant, do you really think a mere early-stage Dao Fruit practitioner can stop us?”
A cold laugh rang out as Lin Shan released his aura powerfully. “This Tian belongs to the Great Cloud Kingdom!”
“So be it. Li Yuanba, please handle protecting the dojo and driving off these petty crooks,” Jiang Taixuan sighed lightly.
BOOM!
Golden light flashed, and thunder rumbled, weaving into a dreadful Celestial Network. The surroundings took on the appearance of a thunder domain, as if the heavens were enraged, bringing thunderous annihilation.
Purple-gold twin hammers shook the sky, thunder surged, enveloping the three.
“Kill!” The three Dao Fruit practitioners attacked simultaneously. Lin Shan was at mid-stage Dao Fruit, and the other two were at early-stage.
BOOM!
A resounding explosion erupted as the thunder swallowed the three. Li Yuanba’s twin hammers faded and vanished. He landed with his hands behind his back. “Done.”
Yun Feng and Yang Ziling stared in shock at the sky. Within that mass of lightning, three figures floated, charred black, devoid of life.
Three Dao Fruit practitioners, killed in one move!
“Elder Lin!” Yun Feng’s face changed dramatically, his eyes filled with unconcealed terror.
Wasn’t it said that the strong one of the Divine Devil Dojo, alone, could at most handle early-stage Dao Fruit practitioners?
With three Dao Fruit practitioners on his side, he should have been able to capture them easily. But now, three Dao Fruit practitioners were instantly killed by a single person.
The gap was so damn huge!
“Yun Feng, huh? I should call you Prince Yun,” Jiang Taixuan’s expression suddenly turned cold. “You trespassed into the Divine Devil Dojo with malicious intent. How do you wish to die?”
As he finished speaking, Li Yuanba, Li Guang, and Divine Marquis Zhuge looked at Yun Feng coldly. They would kill him on the spot at Jiang Taixuan’s command.
“Field Master,” before Yun Feng could speak, Yang Ziling stepped forward first. “Field Master, this was all a plot by the Qingshan Sect. The Qingshan Sect colluded with foreign enemies and misled Prince Yun Feng…”
“That’s right, the Qingshan Sect forced me to come. It has nothing to do with me. I had no choice,” Yun Feng quickly added.
He had hesitated before, giving up on moving against the Divine Devil Dojo. It was Lin Shan who persuaded him, reinforcing his resolve to act. Now, he was truly afraid.
“Miss Yang, I don’t want to hear that. I have no interest in your petty affairs,” Jiang Taixuan interrupted. “Who rules this Great Cloud Kingdom has nothing to do with me. I am merely a businessman.”
Yang Ziling nodded. “I understand the Field Master’s meaning. Everything in the Divine Devil Dojo has a price. Please name your price for Prince Yun Feng’s life.”
“Prince Yun Feng, you are a prince of the kingdom. Come, tell me, how much should you be worth?” Jiang Taixuan looked at Yun Feng.
Yun Feng’s scalp tightened in fear. He hurriedly took off his Spatial Ring and removed its binding. “Field Master, all my wealth is here.”
Jiang Taixuan waved his hand and stored it. There was quite a bit inside, actually over a thousand Yuan Crystals. He checked carefully, then fell silent. Should he fleece him for more?
“Field Master, Ziling also has two hundred Yuan Crystals here, and a few Gold Coins,” Yang Ziling quickly added.
“Fine, this will do,” Jiang Taixuan didn’t press further. These two seemed truly out of money now. He took the Yuan Crystals and let the matter drop.
“Field Master, the three Qingshan Sect members are dead. The Cloud Order no longer needs safeguarding. Please return it to Ziling,” Yang Ziling said.
“No refund,” Jiang Taixuan stated.
Yang Ziling was torn between laughter and tears. “Of course, the Field Master completed the task early.”
Jiang Taixuan directly tossed the Cloud Order to her. “Here, take it. I don’t understand you people. What’s the point of this worthless thing?”
Yang Ziling, Yun Feng: “…”
“Prince Yun Feng, the traitors have been dealt with. The Cloud Order is entrusted to Your Highness for safekeeping,” Yang Ziling suddenly threw the Cloud Order to Yun Feng and said respectfully.
Yun Feng sneered coldly. “What a fine Yang Ziling. But do you think you can fool me like this?”
With a cold snort, he took the Cloud Order and left directly, walking very fast. Yang Ziling bid her farewell and also turned to leave.
“Yun Feng is going to die,” Divine Marquis Zhuge shook his head.
“Yang Ziling is going to kill him?” Ximen the Fatty exclaimed.
“No. Before he returns to the Imperial Capital, Yang Ziling will still protect him with her life,” Divine Marquis Zhuge sneered. “It’s just that this Yun Feng will return to the Imperial Capital, but the Cloud Order won’t make it back. Losing the Cloud Order and causing the death of the Dao Fruit experts from Qingshan Sect… Would the Great Cloud Emperor let him live?”
Ximen the Fatty’s intelligence wasn’t sufficient to figure it out.
Jiang Taixuan also couldn’t be bothered with this matter. “This isn’t our business. Don’t worry about it unnecessarily. Ximen the Fatty, have you familiarized yourself with the dojo’s procedures yet?”
Ximen the Fatty quickly nodded. “I’m familiar now. Today I sold several portions of Innate Spiritual Energy.”
“Good. Then I’ll leave this place to you. Divine Marquis, take this and set up some things at the dojo. Li Yuanba, come with me.” Jiang Taixuan handed the main teleportation array to Divine Marquis Zhuge.
Divine Marquis Zhuge flipped his hand and stored it away. “Rest assured, Field Master.”
“Ximen the Fatty, if there’s anything at the dojo you’re unsure about, seek out Divine Marquis Zhuge. He will contact me.” Jiang Taixuan stood up. There was nothing left for him to do in Clear Moon City. It was time to go to Cloud Water City.
Li Yuanba directly carried Jiang Taixuan and flew through the air. With Dao Fruit flight, it was much faster than walking.
