The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 3229: Chapter 3224: Desolate Snake Desert_1

Dao Guangwang said coldly, "Junior Sister Yue Fu and the other five are now missing. Willow Feng, you claim you know nothing, do you not take this matter seriously? Do you think we granted you the position of Blackstone Ancient Castle Master just to enjoy a leisurely life?"

Willow Feng felt wronged after being scolded by Dao Guangwang and Broken River in a row.

However, he dared not show any anger, and could only grit his teeth and say, "Sir Dao Guang, I have done my best in this matter. When Fairy Moon Fu and her party arrived, they headed straight for the Desolate Snake Desert. In order to help Fairy Moon Fu and the others, my Blackstone Ancient Castle has sent out all three Sky Separation Realm experts available, apart from me. Now, only I am left in the Blackstone Ancient Castle, and I am truly helpless about this."

That was also the source of his bitterness.

His sect had dispatched three Sky Separation Realm experts, and now there is no news. He had hoped that his son could establish some connection with Heavenly Melody Mountain as compensation, but he had no idea that they didn’t care about the loss of their Blackstone Ancient Castle.

Dao Guangwang snorted indignantly and said coldly, "Now that things have turned out like this, do you still feel wronged?"

Broken River waved his hand, and although his expression was not friendly, it was somewhat better than Dao Guangwang’s.

"Enough, scolding is meaningless now. Let’s find out what happened first. Willow Feng, remember that without Heavenly Melody Mountain, there would be no you and no Blackstone Ancient Castle. It’s your duty to contribute to Heavenly Melody Mountain." Broken River glanced at Willow Feng, his face expressionless.

All Willow Feng could do was lower his head and obediently agree.

"Now, tell us why Junior Sister Yue Fu and her party headed specifically toward the Desolate Snake Desert? It should have nothing to do with the Snake people and the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag, right?" Broken River said.

Willow Feng sighed, "I also find it strange. Some time after the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag went missing, news suddenly came from the Snake people, claiming that the flag had been stolen and placed in the top floor of the Snake people’s Heavenly Crystal Snake Spirit Tower. Although the authenticity of the news is unknown, it seems that the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag has some connection with the Snake people. To investigate, Fairy Moon Fu and her party headed to the Snake people’s territory."

Broken River frowned, "The Sky Separation Realm experts of the Snake people are limited in number. Even if there are a few, they shouldn’t pose a threat to Junior Sister Yue Fu and the others. So why can’t we contact them?"

Maybe Fairy Yue Fu is busy dealing with the matter and doesn’t have time to send a message," Willow Feng wiped the sweat from his brow and hurriedly offered reassurance.

Broken River did not respond. It was possible, but now the Snake people were no longer unrelated to the matter.

Yang Chen asked in surprise, "What kind of group are the Snake people?"

"They are just one of the many subgroups of our human race, half-snake and half-human in appearance. There are many such hybrids like half-fish, half-human, and half-horse, half-human. These beings can only be considered half-human, unable to enter mainstream society, but they have a trace of human blood, which is why they coexist with us in the same universe." Broken River explained.

Yang Chen nodded. There were indeed many branches of the human race. For example, in the Southern Realm, there was the Divine Maiden Clan, and with such a vast Universe Starry Sky, it was quite normal for there to be many subgroups of the human race.

"By the way, I heard that some people from the Grand Abyss Palace have also appeared in this Nine Dragons World. Is that true?" asked Madame Autumn Plum.

"It’s true. The Grand Abyss Palace arranged two groups of people to come to my Blackstone Ancient Castle to inquire about the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag matter..." Willow Feng said timidly.

"What did you say?" Dao Guangwang asked.

"I didn’t dare to hide anything, so I told the truth. Now, those two groups of Grand Abyss Palace people have headed for the Desolate Snake Desert!" Willow Feng said.

"You traitor! We, Heavenly Melody Mountain, have nurtured your Blackstone Ancient Castle so assiduously, and now you are helping the people of the Grand Abyss Palace to find the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag?" Dao Guangwang cursed.

Broken River waved his hand and said, "Brother Daoguang, calm down. It’s not his fault that the Grand Abyss Palace wanted to intervene in this matter. Willow Feng had no choice but to tell them."

Willow Feng breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that Broken River was at least somewhat reasonable.

Only then did Dao Guangwang grunt and say, "Alright, who exactly are the people from the Grand Abyss Palace? Tell us."

Willow Feng dared not withhold any information and reported in detail, "Grand Abyss Palace is led by King Ming Cheng himself, with a total of twelve Sky Separation Realm experts!"

"What?!" Dao Guangwang’s face changed in shock. "King Ming Cheng is personally leading?"

"It’s Ming Cheng King!" Madame Autumn Plum’s face turned pale, her expression moved upon hearing the name King Ming Cheng.

Broken River shook his head as well, "King Ming Cheng is one thing, but in total, there are twelve Sky Separation Realm experts. If we don’t meet up with Junior Sister Yue Fu, we will be at a disadvantage when competing for the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag."

"Who is King Ming Cheng?" Yang Chen asked puzzledly.

Broken River secretly smiled bitterly, Yang Chen really didn’t know anything.

If it weren’t for the fact that Yang Chen came from the Divine Night Sect, he would have been too lazy to explain. Now, he had no choice but to say, "King Ming Cheng is a famous Sky Separation Realm expert from the Grand Abyss Palace. His cultivation has reached the later stage of the Sky Separation Realm. He is also the core disciple of Daoist Ancestor Expert, Fu Tiandi. In terms of Sky Separation Realm cultivation, he is among the top-ranked experts in the field, even I am somewhat inferior to him."

Broken River shook his head with a bitter smile as he finished speaking.

Yang Chen understood now. As for Dao Guangwang and Madame Autumn Plum, they sighed heavily, as if they had encountered some trouble.

After a while, Broken River said, "Alright, let’s rest here for now. In a few days, we will go to the Desolate Snake Desert."

Upon hearing that the group wanted to rest here for a few days, Willow Feng immediately got up and took care of the arrangements, ordering his subordinates to attend to the four guests as if they were their own ancestors.

Thus, Yang Chen and the others settled down here for the time being.

After settling down, the four of them discussed the matter of going to the Desolate Snake Desert.

However, before going, they naturally had to go and take a look at the core of the Lingtian Array.

Yang Chen did not accompany them. He didn’t know much about the Lingtian Array, and even if he went, he wouldn’t be able to make out its secrets. He left it to Broken River and the others.

As for him, he stayed at the Blackstone Ancient Castle with other plans in mind.

Yang Chen cultivated for several days.

Over these days, Yang Chen became increasingly sure about something.

And it was today that he suddenly opened his eyes.

"There’s no doubt..."

Yang Chen seemed to have confirmed something, his expression becoming increasingly solemn.
