Chapter 459: Chapter 234: I Only Want the Dragon Bone Bow
"Elder, could you tell me about the grievances between your Cyan Snake Tribe and the Divine Sect?"
Jiang Feng and the Cyan Snake King sat down inside the tunnel.
"Our Cyan Snake Tribe was originally the guardian spirit beast of the Divine Sect. Later, as the Divine Sect declined, the Joyful Union Sect usurped its position, renaming the Divine Sect Mansion and had countless conflicts with our tribe over it."
"Our tribe lost the protection of the Divine Sect, and our heritage faced challenges, so we had to leave the Divine Sect Mansion and survive underneath the Dragon Capital."
The Cyan Snake King explained.
Jiang Feng was utterly shocked.
Unexpectedly, there was such a significant enmity between the Cyan Snake Tribe and the Divine Sect. However, the greater the conflict between them, the more beneficial it was for him. So Jiang Feng sincerely asked, "Now my enmity with the Divine Sect has reached an irreconcilable point. As you are quite familiar with the counterfeit Divine Sect, please guide me on what I should do?"
"You possess two Innate Magical Treasures, plus your strength at the Eighth-Layer Qi Condensation. Even if the Divine Sect Leader takes action personally, they might not be able to deal with you."
The Cyan Snake King poured a cup of Spiritual Liquid for Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng was taken aback.
The Cyan Snake King implied that the Qinglong Cauldron was also an Innate Magical Treasure.
After pondering, Jiang Feng summoned the Qinglong Cauldron, allowing it to hover above his palm. Golden dragon-shaped phantom figures encircled around the small cauldron. Upon seeing this, the Cyan Snake King’s brows furrowed, and he leaned back slightly.
"I am ignorant, please, elder, tell me truthfully, what kind of Innate Magical Treasure is this Qinglong Cauldron?"
Jiang Feng proactively maintained a distance between the Qinglong Cauldron and the Cyan Snake King.
"This... you’ve clearly already refined it, could it be..."
The Cyan Snake King found it baffling.
"Please, elder, advise."
Jiang Feng looked eagerly at the Cyan Snake King.
The Cyan Snake King asked in return, "The Qinglong Cauldron is an object from the Underground Palace. How did it come into your possession?"
"By coincidence, at that time, the Six-armed Divine Emperor led Royal Family experts in invading the Underground Palace..."
Jiang Feng truthfully recounted to the Cyan Snake King how he had picked up the Qinglong Cauldron from the one-eyed elder and the Second Prince and made a getaway under the eyes of the Six-armed Divine Emperor.
"Young friend, such fortune you have, acquiring such an opportunity is truly enviable."
The Cyan Snake King marveled sincerely.
"That day, the Blood Wolf King stormed the city, and the Dragon Capital was ablaze. Countless people rushed into the Zhenbei Prison, all to obtain treasure from the Underground Palace. Elder, why didn’t we see you take action, being in seclusion here?"
Jiang Feng found this puzzling.
For the Cyan Snake Tribe hiding in the underground passages for so long, they should have had clear knowledge of the major and minor events occurring in the Dragon Capital over the years.
Especially concerning two successive invasions of the Zhenbei Prison Underground Palace, why had the Cyan Snake Tribe never appeared?
"That day, with the Six-armed Divine Emperor present, I couldn’t reveal myself and had to let my grandson, under the guise of a Spirit Pet of the Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall, keep a close watch in the dark."
"By the time the Six-armed Divine Emperor and the Two-tailed Wolf King left the Underground Palace, any prohibitions on the arrays had returned to normal, and nothing was left on the periphery."
The Cyan Snake King explained.
Jiang Feng frowned, sensing something was amiss.
After thinking, he said, "With your power, no movements underground in the Zhenbei Prison could be concealed from you, even if they could from the Emperor. You must know about the Demon Child hiding underground for decades, refining the Ten Directions Ghost Realm, right?"
"The Demon Sect was created by me."
The Cyan Snake King stated directly.
"What?"
Jiang Feng’s eyes widened.
"The remnants of the Joyful Union Sect are everywhere opposing my Cyan Snake Tribe, trying to annihilate us. Although I can’t confront them head-on, I must find ways to trouble them."
The Cyan Snake King sneered coldly.
"Does...the Emperor know about it?"
Jiang Feng found it unbelievable.
"Initially, he didn’t know. Later, when the Old Demon Child came out of your Zhenbei Prison and led followers to invade Nanfu City, he became aware."
The Cyan Snake King said indifferently.
"Elder, you are formidable."
Jiang Feng gave a thumbs up.
The Cyan Snake King had stirred things up right under the Emperor’s nose. Even after being exposed, the Emperor could do nothing to him, not even daring to use the Divine Sect to eliminate him, demonstrating the immense skill of the Cyan Snake King.
From this, it also showed that both sides had secrets they couldn’t reveal.
"The Demon Sect is no longer a threat, unable to shake the foundation of the Great Tang. Contrarily, the agreement between my Cyan Snake Tribe and the Li Family concerns whether the Underground Palace can fall into Li Family hands. Now that the Joyful Union Sect can’t control the Divine Sect Mansion, they have turned their attention to the Dragon Capital Underground Palace. Li Yang requires our Cyan Snake Tribe’s assistance."
The Cyan Snake King boasted proudly.
"He killed his own son by his own hand, framing me for it. I haven’t settled that score with him yet."
Jiang Feng gritted his teeth.
Upon hearing this, a cold gleam flashed through the Cyan Snake King’s eyes, and Jiang Feng sensed a crisis, causing the Qinglong Cauldron in his hand to enlarge uncontrollably.
"Li Yunhong’s death was your doing, having nothing to do with Li Yang."
The Cyan Snake King glanced at the Qinglong Cauldron, retracting the hostility in his eyes, and said to Jiang Feng.
He obviously hadn’t realized that Jiang Feng actually knew Li Yunhong had died at the hands of Li Yang.
Even though he wasn’t present at that time.
But when Li Yang sent the Little Cyan Snake to intercept Jiang Feng, it fell into Jiang Feng’s hands. The Cyan Snake King asked the Little Cyan Snake afterward and learned many details.
Especially about the Soul-Stabilizing Jade.
Jiang Feng knew nothing about that Soul-Stabilizing Jade.
Since he didn’t know Li Yunhong had a Soul-Stabilizing Jade on his neck, he couldn’t have used the Qinglong Cauldron to smash it, eliminating Li Yunhong’s soul in the process.
In the end, that Soul-Stabilizing Jade was crushed by Li Yang, under the guise of being useless, right in front of Liu Chen and the Six-armed Divine Emperor.
Having lived for two or three hundred years.
He quickly realized there was something fishy about Li Yunhong’s death.
