Chapter 454 Ch 454: Shadow Fiend Race
?In a certain Land, Queen could be seen killing a few Chaos Beasts that were not any less powerful than a Level 5 and Level 6 Masters of Chaos. She killed them in order to save someone.
The person she saved was the prince of a race called the Shadow Fiend Race.
"Thank you, thank you for saving me. I have nothing to repay you, I can only invite you to come with me to my home. I will certainly give you rewards worth your efforts this time!"
The prince of the Shadow Fiend Race, a Ninth Stage Celestial Sovereign Realm warrior, expressed his gratitude and invited Queen to the Shadow Fiend Race.
Queen did not show any emotion on the surface, but deep down in her heart, she muttered, "I can finally make him take me to the Shadow Fiend Race. The Emperor of Shadow Fiend Race is too powerful, I'm not his match. I can follow this prince there and then look try my best to obtain that item."
Although Queen was very powerful, the Emperor of the Shadow Fiend Race was a Level 34 Master of Chaos. She was not his match yet.
Other than the Shadow Fiend Emperor, there are also several powerful Masters of Chaos in the Shadow Fiend Race. So, if she wanted to enter the land controlled by this race, following the prince was the safest option.
After hearing the prince's words, Queen nodded slightly, agreeing with the prince.
The name of the Prince was Xi Zhan.
As Xi Zhan led the way for Queen, the two of them started to increase their speed.
As they hurried along, very soon, Queen started seeing the members of Shadow Fiend Race.
Very soon, they reached the top of a mountain. In the valley below, the water was completely black, making people who looked at it feel as if it was emitting a very strange and terrifying aura.
There was a castle. This castle had giant walls, which were made of huge rocks and had a certain level of defense. Normal Celestial Sovereigns and even Masters of Chaos would not be able to break through it.
An enormous barrier of light was covering the castle, emitting a faint, inky light.
This way, they would be able to prevent the invaders, mainly their arch enemies, Chaos Beasts who always like to devour the members of the Shadow Fiend Race, from charging into the castle from the air.
After Queen understood all of this, she quickly followed Xi Zhan to the entrance of the huge barrier.
Of course, there were more ways to this Shadow Fiend Race than just one entrance. When the two Shadow Fiends saw that Prince Xi Zhan had returned, they were filled with joy. However, when they saw Queen, they couldn't help but feel that she looked just like a human being.
Their expression instantly turned anxious.
"My prince, she is a human being. Why did you bring her here?"
"Shut up, she is my savior. I was almost killed by Chaos Beasts earlier. She saved me from those Chaos Beasts."
Hearing this news, the two Shadow Fiends were surprised.
"Alright, you guys don't have to be so surprised. She isn't a human, she came from a different race. She is actually a plant monster that miraculously cultivated to a high realm and transformed into a human form. She is here to protect us."
It was, of course, Queen who told Xi Zhan that she was a plant monster. It is because she is well aware that humans are not welcomed by the Shadow Fiend Race because of their greedy nature.
On their way here, Queen also expressed the intention of becoming Xi Zhan's protector while she stays with them as their guest. She will protect him from all dangers, including the danger of Chaos Beasts.
She expressed this because Xi Zhan told her that he wished to do something that might endanger his life.
Queen's intention of coming to the Shadow Fiend Race was to obtain a certain item. If she could get closer to Xi Zhan, she could obtain that item more easily.
Listening to Xi Zhan's words, the two Shadow Fiends guarding the entrance no longer looked at her the way they did earlier.
Queen could not be bothered with them, she looked forward with a cold expression and entered the castle with Xi Zhan.
After knowing that the prince had returned, he had garnered even more attention from the rest of the Shadow Fiends. These Shadow Fiends also became extremely curious about Queen, a stranger from a foreign race.
Surprisingly, inside of the barrier, there was not a single castle but many.
These huge castles were all made up of giant rocks. Moreover, they were stacked on top of each other, making them look like caves. They were extremely ancient, and it was likely that they had existed for a very long time.
Queen looked at the Shadow Fiends, they were all more than three meters tall.
As they went deeper, more and more Shadow Fiends started to boil up. They all thought that Queen was a human being, but there was no aura of a human on her body.
Queen could feel that the barrier above the castle had such a huge gravitational pressure after she entered. As a result, basically, no one could reach a height less than a thousand meters above the ground.
Very soon, they entered the main castle which could be seen from outside the barrier. This castle was extremely huge. After all, it was a place where hundreds of thousands of Shadow Fiends could live.
At this time, someone had already gone to inform the four Shadow Fiend Sovereigns about the arrival of Prince Xi Zhan.
The four Shadow Fiend Sovereigns were the strongest Masters of Chaos under the emperor of Shadow Fiend Race. Among them was the father of Prince Xi Zhan.
Talking about Prince Xi Zhan, he was the son of the Emperor's brother. The Emperor himself doesn't have any children. He made Xi Zhan the prince.
As they went deeper into the castle, many Shadow Fiends surrounded Queen for a moment, looking at her curiously.
If it wasn't for Prince Xi Zhan, these Fiends would have already attacked Queen at the first possible moment.
Queen did not show any change in expression. Facing these Shadow Fiends, she was not afraid at all.
Prince Xi Zhan seemed to be very respectful to this woman. Thus, the others didn't make a move. They were just on guard against Queen. Everyone was vigilant.
"Don't bother with them. Everyone doesn't know you well. On top of that, your human appearance is like a thorn in their eyes. I believe my father and the others should be coming soon. After they come, I will explain everything to them."
Queen nodded slightly. "It's fine, I can understand."
Very soon, four Shadow Fiends came with striking auras. Their auras told Queen that her decision to not invade the Shadow Fiend Race was correct. Three of them were Level 31 Master of Chaos while the last one of them was a Level 32 Master of Chaos.
"Father!"
"Uncles!"
As these four individuals approached, Prince Xi Zhan immediately greeted them.
Before they could ask, Prince Xi Zhan already started to explain how he encountered Queen and how Queen saved him from the mouth of several Chaos Beasts. He also described how easily she killed those beasts. The more he explained, the more excited he became.
When everyone heard this, they slightly relaxed their vigilance.
Queen was secretly glad that she had met Prince Xi Zhan. If he was a normal Shadow Fiend, she would not be in this situation. His identity as a prince was extremely high in the eyes of the Shadow Fiends, and he would be the future inheritor of the emperor.
That is why, all Shadow Fiends believed in Prince Xi Zhan.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard that Queen had killed several powerful Chaos Beasts equivalent to Masters of Chaos. It was as if they had seen light after extreme darkness, everyone appeared happy.
Why?
It is because their race was the favorite food for Chaos Beasts. It might be because of Shadow Fiend Blood that is very beneficial for Chaos Beast's growth.
The stronger Shadow Fiend a Chaos Beast devours, the more benefit it could obtain.
Every time they, the Shadow Fiends, were attacked by Chaos Beast, they would be either torn apart or devoured even under the protection of several Masters of Chaos.
No matter how many Masters of Chaos there are in the Shadow Fiend Race, these Masters of Chaos are always busy protecting the border from the invasion of Chaos Beasts.
This is why, Shadow Fiends were all terrified of Chaos Beasts.
Now that they heard Queen had killed several powerful Chaos Beasts equivalent to Masters of Chaos, they could not be more happy.
This reason made them accept Queen more easily.
Under the agreements of the four Shadow Fiend Sovereigns, Queen was brought to a small house built of giant rocks. She could rest here for the time being.
"Now that I'm inside the Shadow Fiend Race, I can easily look for Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal. With the help of Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal, Ling Xiaolong could quickly level up to the final level of Master of Chaos!"
As she muttered, her eyes gleamed with green light. Several extremely thin, almost invisible to the naked eye, roots grew out of her feet and sank deeper into the ground, spreading everywhere like a huge net slowly unfolding.
Each strand of her roots was like an extra pair of eyes. Everywhere the roots expanded to fall under the surveillance of Queen.
She was determined to find the Shadow Fiend Origin Crystal and take it away under the nose of all the Shadow Fiends.
