When I woke up, I wanted to go home.
Chapter 34 Peace Trading Company and Divine Void
When Xiao Hei heard Zhu Chongjiu's telepathic message mentioning that there were people there, he was also very surprised! Xiao Hei's innate supernatural ability is related to mental power, so after carefully sensing, he also discovered this group of people.
Because Zhu Chongjiu and Xiao Hei always concealed their presence before each revenge, their group failed to detect them, but Zhu Chongjiu's keen divine sense did.
Zhu Chongjiu transmitted his voice to Xiao Heidao: "Let's go, be careful and observe them closely. But we also need to be careful, since this group of people can walk openly in Shenxu, they must be prepared or have the ability!"
As they spoke, Zhu Chongjiu and Xiao Hei slowly approached the group.
When Zhu Chongjiu and Xiao Hei were about two kilometers away from the group, Zhu Chongjiu could already vaguely see them with his naked eye!
When Zhu Chongjiu saw them, he felt a chill. There were six people, not five. Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "With my perception, how could I have missed one? Could it be that they have a treasure that can shield their aura, like the King of Ruixue?"
There were six people in the group, six men and one woman, each with a different appearance. The ones that could be identified were four elderly men, one young man and one young woman. The only one that Zhu Chongjiu could not sense was the young man.
Apart from the young man whose strength was not perceived, the remaining five were all at the high-level Emperor level.
Zhu Chongjiu used his naked eye and divine sense to discover that the young man was dressed in fine silk and satin, was slightly taller than Zhu Chongjiu, had long hair, and was dressed like an ancient nobleman.
The other five people were people who looked like humans from the icy continent, tall and muscular, and wearing animal skins.
Some were as short as dwarfs, but as strong as bison, wearing armor and wielding a pair of giant axes as tall as themselves.
He was muscular, bare-chested, wearing only leather shorts, and his entire body was fiery red, even his hair was fiery red, as if a ball of flame was growing on his head.
He was completely encased in metal armor, with only a slit in his helmet revealing his eyes, and he held a giant sword.
The remaining one was the only woman in the group. She was petite with fair and radiant skin, wearing a light green gauze dress. She had pointed ears on either side of her head, and her hair was also light green and flowing down her shoulders. She held a bow that emitted a faint light green glow. Zhu Chongjiu did not notice the sword sheath.
Upon seeing that she was a beautiful woman, Zhu Chongjiu observed her more closely. This woman was floating forward barefoot, unlike others who walked on land!
Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "Damn it, aren't these the five types of humans from the God-Forsaken Continent? Judging from their formation, it seems that all five of them are led by that young man."
Who is this person? So powerful, gathering five Emperor-level powerhouses from various continents as attendants, what are they doing here in the Divine Void?
Xiao Hei transmitted his voice: "Ninth Brother, it seems he's also heading to the lair of the Dragon Patterned Heavenly Python!"
Zhu Chongjiu said, "Let's go, let's follow them and see!"
Half an hour later, the group in front landed from the sky, seemingly having reached their destination. Zhu Chongjiu and Xiao Hei stopped behind them.
The young man took something out of his pocket and chanted some incantations over it. After the incantations were finished, the group waited in place. About fifteen minutes later, Zhu Chongjiu saw tall trees in the distant jungle collapsing in their direction, accompanied by loud crashes and the sound of trees breaking.
A giant snake's head emerged from the jungle, while its body remained hidden. Zhu Chongjiu estimated that the head was about a hundred meters in diameter, and its length, measured by his divine sense, exceeded a thousand feet!
Just as Zhu Chongjiu was about to withdraw his divine sense, the young man turned around and said, "Brother, you've been following us all the way. I've arrived at our destination. You should show yourself now!"
Zhu Chongjiu?
Damn it, we've been found out, and we were found out right from the start! And we're still here foolishly trying to be clever, how embarrassing!
The little black dog that was originally being held by Zhu Chongjiu was thrown to the ground by Zhu Chongjiu, who then transmitted his voice: "Little black dog, turn back to your original form!"
Since he's so high-class, I can't be sloppy!
Xiao Hei transformed into its thousand-foot-tall form, and Zhu Chongjiu flew onto Xiao Hei's back, patting it and saying, "You've grown quite a bit. Let's go. Now that they've discovered us, let's stop pretending and go out to meet them and see who they really are!"
Once Zhu Chongjiu and Xiao Hei came into view of the group opposite, Zhu Chongjiu telepathically said to Xiao Hei, "Xiao Hei, slow down, I have two questions for you!"
Ninth Brother, what's the problem?
Have you ever seen these people?
No, I'm wondering the same thing. Over the years, the furthest I know of humans entering the Divine Void is the border of the Divine Void Plain. They retreated before even reaching the Divine Void Bath. This is the first time I've seen someone like you, Ninth Brother!
Have you ever seen people dressed like that before?
I have seen people dressed like that before, but people dressed differently have come in from different directions. This is the first time I've seen them all gathered together like this!
Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, it seems that his guess was correct, because he had only seen people from the Ice and Snow Continent, and could only know the general idea of people from other continents from books!
While Zhu Chongjiu and Xiao Hei were exchanging questions, the man and the beast walked up to the group of people opposite them.
Zhu Chongjiu flipped over and landed on the ground. Xiao Hei then turned back to the size of a kitten and jumped onto Zhu Chongjiu's shoulder.
At this moment, it was the Dragon Patterned Heavenly Python that spoke first. The Dragon Patterned Heavenly Python looked at the little cat on Zhu Chongjiu's shoulder and said, "Isn't this the little black cat? When did you find a human companion?"
Upon hearing the words of the Dragon-Patterned Heavenly Python, Little Black instantly bristled and bared its teeth, replying: "I am the Celestial Steed, you are the Little Black Cat, you are the Big Mudfish!"
Zhu Chongjiu observed that when Xiao Hei said the words "Zhouju," the young man's figure visibly shifted slightly. His gaze, which had been on him, suddenly moved to Xiao Hei, and then back again. Although it all happened in an instant, Zhu Chongjiu still caught it.
At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu patted Xiao Hei on the shoulder to calm Xiao Hei down and said, "Xiao Hei, don't worry, I'll beat him up for you in a bit and take those two fangs off for you to use as a pendant!"
Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, the Dragon-Patterned Heavenly Python suddenly raised its head and roared angrily: "You insignificant human, how dare you disrespect me? Do you know the consequences?"
Zhu Chongjiu replied dangerously, "I don't know the consequences of offending you, but I know what the consequences of offending Xiao Hei are." As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Xiao Hei on his shoulder.
While Zhu Chongjiu was talking to the Dragon Patterned Heavenly Python, he was also observing the behavior of the group of six. Just now, when the Dragon Patterned Heavenly Python mentioned the insignificant humans, apart from the young man, the other five people all looked somewhat unnatural. In particular, the one with fiery red skin looked like he had already taken a step forward, but was stopped by the young man's subtle gesture.
Zhu Chongjiu looked at the group of six and said, "We're all human, so you all step back and let me ravage this... what is it?" Zhu Chongjiu glanced back at Little Black, "Big Mudskipper!" Oh, right, Big Mudskipper!
Let me wreak havoc on this giant mudfish before we catch up!
After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu walked forward, and Xiao Hei, as usual, jumped off Zhu Chongjiu's shoulder and waited in place.
Just as Zhu Chongjiu took two steps, the young man stepped out and stood between President Zhu and the Dragon Patterned Python. He cupped his hands to Zhu Chongjiu and said, "May I ask your name, sir? I have some things to discuss with this Dragon Patterned Python. Could you please wait until I've finished talking before you discuss your grudges?"
Upon hearing the young man's words, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "It seems these people have something to do with the Dragon-Patterned Heavenly Python. It looks like this isn't their first meeting. If this goes through, it might not be the right thing to do; but if I interfere, it's definitely a good thing." Thinking this, Zhu Chongjiu smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "It seems you also have a grudge against this Dragon-Patterned Heavenly Python, brother. You've probably brought a group to seek revenge. But there's one thing: since I initiated the challenge, I have to beat it first. You'll all have to wait your turn. Don't worry, I definitely won't kill it and leave you with no way to vent your anger!" Zhu Chongjiu said with an upright expression.
Then, Zhu Chongjiu asked, seemingly casually, "Are you in a team? The Five Kingdoms have a rule that each team can only have two Emperor-level experts on each hunting expedition, right? How come there are six of you?"
When the young man heard Zhu Chongjiu's dismissive reply, his expression turned slightly grim. Just as he was about to ask Zhu Chongjiu another question, the Dragon-Patterned Heavenly Python, upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, raised part of its body and roared at Zhu Chongjiu, "How dare you insult the noble Dragon-Patterned Heavenly Python time and time again! I will kill you and leave you with nothing but bones!"
The young man's expression turned cold instantly after being interrupted by the dragon-patterned celestial python behind him. He turned around and said in a cold voice, "Beast, shut up!"
Then, suppressing a laugh, he asked Zhu Chongjiu again, "May I ask your name, sir? And where do you live now?"
May I be your friend?
Zhu Chongjiu was a bit dumbfounded this time. What was going on? This was no ordinary background. They were calling it a beast, and it had to take it. I had to take this seriously this time!
Zhu Chongjiu re-examined the young man in front of him, who looked a few years younger than himself, and then said, "Since you're also fifty-eight and I'm forty, let's treat each other with sincerity and not do any of those pretentious things, so as not to hurt our harmony by going around in circles, how about it?"
The young man looked at Zhu Chongjiu and asked with a smile, "How do you treat people with sincerity? Let me hear it."
Zhu Chongjiu said: It's very simple. You ask me a question, I ask you a question, and neither of us is allowed to lie. It's that simple!
The young man, always a gentleman with a smile on his lips, immediately introduced himself after hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words: "My name is Xiao Tian. Let's begin with Xiao Tian."
Your exact origins and real name are unknown. You are used to being called Ninth Brother. Your apparent strength is at the Emperor level, but your true combat power is unknown. It's as if you suddenly appeared in this icy world.
Zhu Chongjiu was quite surprised when he first heard Xiao Tian introduce himself, but the more he listened, the less surprised he became. He felt uneasy and got goosebumps!
As Xiao Tian finished speaking the last word, Zhu Chongjiu's killing intent surged instantly. Xiao Tian was about to retreat, but Zhu Chongjiu's sword was already pressed against Xiao Tian's throat.
The moment the great sword was pressed against Xiao Tian's throat, Xiao Tian felt as if he had already stepped into the gates of the underworld!
Xiao Tian had no choice but to raise both hands, one hand reaching towards Zhu Chongjiu and the other behind him. The hand reaching behind him was gently waving, telling the five people who were flying over at top speed not to make any rash moves. The hand reaching towards Zhu Chongjiu was waving rapidly, and he hurriedly said, "Ninth Brother, I have no hostility towards you, please don't be impulsive!"
Seeing this, Xiao Hei quickly transformed into its true form and stood between the five people and Zhu Chongjiu. At the same time, the Dragon Pattern Python also stretched its snake body forward, assuming an attack posture!
Zhu Chongjiu said to Xiao Tian in a deep voice, "How did you know? What is your identity?"
Xiao Tian quickly said, "I am from the God-Abandoned Continent, the son of the president of the Peace Merchant Guild. You are also a Black Iron member of our Peace Merchant Guild. As the president's son, it's not unreasonable for me to know a member's information!"
After hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu sheathed his sword again and said, "Tell your five bodyguards to save their breath. If I wanted to kill you, they wouldn't have time to save you. But you should stand here and not move for now. After we finish our peaceful and amicable conversation, we can part ways peacefully. Wouldn't that be just in line with the mission of your Peace Chamber of Commerce?"
