Chapter 130: The Martial Emperor of the Sky (Seventh Update)

  The situation has become very clear.

  If Li Xie wasn't a guest of Hai Huang, these mercenaries on the same boat would have robbed him!

  It seems that Li Xie is just a noble without magical powers, who has never left home and doesn't know the dangers of the world. If he lets Li Xie leave alone, he will surely die. If he doesn't let him leave, there might be a fierce battle soon.

  So, LaLa tightly grasped Li Xie's arm and shielded him by her side.

  The other three members of the Divine Might Mercenary Group did not abandon Li Xie either. From their vigilant eyes, it could be seen that these three were prepared to fight for this chance encounter with Li Xie.

  Li Xie saw them like this, and his heart was deeply moved! He placed his hand on LaLa's, who was holding the back of his hand, it was time to tell them, Li Xie was no longer a weak and feeble noble!

  The green-eyed vampire's first battle will be fought with the blood of these ill-intentioned mercenaries!

  "Evil Duke!"

  A loud, sonorous voice came from the surface of the sea, and looking around, several hundred meters away, a very large green turtle head about two meters above the water's surface could be seen, along with more than ten square-shaped turtle shells.

  The turtle was approaching the dock at lightning speed and in the blink of an eye it had already arrived at the edge of the dock.

  "Evil Duke, Hai Huang has invited you, please come up."

  Li Xie got off the boat and was still thinking about how to get to Hai Huang Palace. Unexpectedly, Hai Huang had sent a sea turtle to pick him up. Moreover, the timing was just right for when he got off the boat. It seemed that Li Xie's whereabouts were already known by Hai Huang.

  Lala loosened her grip on Li Xie's arm, covering her mouth with her hand. Her beautiful eyes widened in shock, staring at Li Xie: "War God above! You're really the Sea Emperor's guest!"

  Auster and the other two were equally shocked, they couldn't believe that Li Xie didn't boast! Moreover, they couldn't believe that Hai Huang, one of the three emperors, would invite a useless person with no magical aura as a guest!

  The mercenaries around him, with sinister intentions in their eyes, no longer had greed, but only fear, especially Skora, who even pulled two companions to leave quickly!

  Their fear was not just about confirming that Li Xie was a guest of Hai Huang, but their fear had a substantial basis - the green turtle on the dock!

  It's not an ordinary turtle, it's a sacred green turtle famous in the Bering Sea, an eleventh-tier holy beast!

  Once Li Xie has a mind for revenge and opens his mouth, with just one sentence, these mercenaries will have no chance of survival.

  "I've said it, I'm a guest of the Sea Emperor." Li Xie chuckled and smiled: "Thanks to everyone for taking care of me these past few days, and especially thanks to Sister LaLa for her care. When you're free, remember to come to Chrysanthemum City, okay? All expenses on me! Now, I'll take my leave first."

  "Goodbye!" Ostre said with a bow.

  Li Xie nodded and jumped onto the turtle's back.

  Lala watched as Li Xie left, opening her mouth to say something but not saying it. Oster saw off Li Xie, shaking his head and lightly sighing: "It seems that this Evil Duke who has been with us for these days isn't a simple person!"

  Being invited by Hai Huang means that even a useless person without any magical aura fluctuations is absolutely extraordinary!

  "Come on," said Kidd with a grin, "we've still got our adventure."

  The green turtle's speed was incredibly fast, yet it didn't seem to break through the waves, and the seawater splashed onto its back. Li Xie stood steadily on the turtle's back, facing the sea breeze, gazing out at the endless ocean, as if he were a tiny grain in the vast sea, but with an ambitious heart that could fill the heavens and earth, suddenly feeling carefree and open-minded.

  "Turtle brother, how did you come at just the right time?" Li Xie sat on the turtle's back.

  "I have been waiting for you."

  "Haha, Brother Turtle, won't you drink? Li Xie took out two bottles of wine. Racing across the vast ocean surface, there's a heroic spirit that needs to be expressed with wine."

  The green turtle chuckled: "Have you ever seen a drunk sea turtle? If I get drunk, I don't want to be the first sea turtle to drown."

  Li Xie was taken aback, not expecting the sea turtle to be so talkative. He suddenly felt a great affection for his mount and laughed: "If you get drunk, I'll carry you on my back instead, I can swim too."

  "No way, I've been carrying people all my life and got used to it, but I'm not used to being carried by others."

  "It's always good to try something new." Li Xie took a sip of wine and said, "We're going to the Hai Huang Palace, how long will it take?"

  "About half a day."

  "Half a day? It's almost time." Li Xie looked towards the direction of Divine Turtle Island, checking which direction the Sea Emperor Palace was in, and then said: "Brother Turtle, do you know why the Sea Emperor is looking for me, this useless person with no magic or fighting energy?"

  "I'm just responsible for sending the guests to the Sea Emperor's Palace, I don't know anything else." The green turtle turned its head towards Li Xie, seemingly with a smile, and said: "You don't have to worry either, the Sea Emperor won't invite people to the Sea Emperor's Palace without reason, but he has never made things difficult for any guest."

  It's true that Li Xie was a bit worried, after all, he had come to the territory of one of the three emperors, and didn't know the other party's intentions. It would be unreasonable not to worry. However, with what Green Turtle said, Li Xie put his mind at ease. Looking at Green Turtle's affable appearance, Li Xie also stood up casually and joked: "Does Turtle brother know whether Sea Emperor will give gifts to guests? Won't he make the guest bring gifts over?"

  "Haha, your question is really strange." Green Turtle carried many guests and heard for the first time someone mention gifts: "I'm not sure if I've sent a gift or not, but Hai Huang probably wouldn't easily give it away."

  "Oh." Li Xie was somewhat disappointed, he was still thinking if he could gain some benefits from the Hai Huang Palace, but Green Turtle's words seemed to have dashed his hopes.

  At this moment, a golden light flashed across the sky from the east, consistent with Li Xie's direction of advancement. Li Xie happened to see it and felt surprised.

  Because he saw that golden light was not a glow, but a person emitting golden aura!

  Who dares to fly over the Bering Sea?

  Although the Sea King's order was not to allow anyone to fly near the White Sea Palace, it is worth considering what "near" means. As a result, no one dares to fly over the entire Bering Sea.

  So what's the origin of this flying person? And looking at the direction he's flying in, it seems like he's still heading towards the Sea Emperor Palace.

  The green turtle also saw the man and shook his head: "It seems that we will have to stay at sea for a while longer."

  "Why? Because of him?" Li Xie furrowed his brow.

  The green turtle slowed down and said, "Yes, this sudden arrival at the Sea Emperor's Palace, it's better for us small shrimp to stay far away, lest we get implicated."

  The green turtle said this, Li Xie didn't quite understand, and asked: "Who is that person? Daring to fly over the Bering Sea, he must be a big shot!"

  "How can it be described as insignificant!" The green turtle looked towards the faintly visible golden light and said in a deep voice: "That is Wu Huang! The master of Wan Zhen Cliff's Xuan Xing Pavilion!"

  Martial Emperor?

  The Star-Picking Pavilion!

  That's crazy!

  This is all Li Xie can think of to describe it!

  Having been on the Continent of Gods for a long time, Li Xie couldn't be considered too inexperienced. At least he knew that the stars in the Continent of Gods were different from those on Earth.

  The stars in the sky of the mainland of gods are all condensed from divine light, each representing a god.

  The Star Plucking Pavilion, this is going to bring down the gods!

  "What is the Martial Emperor doing here to find the Sea Emperor? Could it be that they're going to fight?" Just now, Green Turtle's words were a bit too much and decided to slow down, fearing that they really came to fight.

  The green turtle shook its head: "Emperor Wu's actions are often unpredictable, and it's not impossible for him to suddenly come to the Sea Emperor Palace to fight with the Sea Emperor. If Duke Ye doesn't have anything important, we'll slow down a bit and see how things develop."

  Ha! Wu Huang and Hai Huang are fighting!

  Li Xie smiled wryly and thought to himself, "Even if it's an urgent matter, I have to make it seem like it's not. He didn't want to go to the Hai Huang Palace and end up being implicated like Green Turtle."

  So, the green turtle took Li Xie to stroll slowly towards the Sea Emperor's Palace. According to the green turtle, Wu Huang would not stay at the Sea Emperor's Palace for too long. The man and the turtle strolled from noon till dusk, and finally saw a golden light flashing across the sky. Needless to say, it was definitely Wu Huang flying away.

  Li Xie looked at the golden light in the sky and chuckled: "I'm really curious, did Wu Huang and Hai Huang have a fight? Was it Wu Huang who beat up Hai Huang and left feeling refreshed, or was it Hai Huang who beat up Wu Huang and made him slink away with his tail between his legs?"

  The green turtle turned its head and looked at Li Xie in surprise, then smiled bitterly: "You are indeed a formidable younger generation, you actually dare to tease Wu Huang and Hai Huang."

  "What's there to fear, they can't hear anyway. Besides, those high-and-mighty figures won't bother with someone like me. Speaking of which, I often wonder why the Three Emperors are called emperors while other demigods on the mainland are just that - demigods. Take Martin Wiegand, the Mercenary King, for example. He's also a demigod, but his title sounds much weaker than the Three Emperors."

  "It's not just a name!" The green turtle seemed to be somewhat disdainful of the King of Mercenaries, saying: "Other demigods, can they be compared with the Three Emperors? Although they are all demigods, their strength is also vastly different. The King of Mercenaries is only a newly promoted strongman in the demigod realm, while the Three Emperors' strength has almost reached the level of divine spirits, lacking only a divine aura. Moreover, they are called emperors not just because of their own power, but also because each of the Three Emperors possesses the power to control the fate of the entire Divine Continent!"

  "What did he say?" Li Xie came over with interest.

  "The Dragon Emperor is the leader of all dragons, commanding the strongest magical beast tribe. When the dragon clan emerges, who dares to contend with them? The Sea Emperor, although master of the White Commanding Sea, possesses boundless wealth and can change the balance of power among the four major tribes with just a thought! As for the Martial Emperor, he was once known as the Sword Saint, his status no more than that of the King of Mercenaries. However, it is he who has brought about the current state of affairs: humans occupying the south, beast tribes migrating north, and demon tribes being forced into hiding. After the Great War of the End, no one dares not to address him as Emperor."

  Long Huang and Wu Huang didn't get much attention from Li Xie, but when he heard that Hai Huang possessed endless wealth, it made him think twice. He recalled the time he met Hai Huang, and how Sandol Kochi, the branch president, showed him a servile attitude, as if Hai Huang was the mastermind behind the Continental Chamber of Commerce?

  That's super expensive!

  No way! We have to think of a way to get him! Scrape him like scraping pig hair!

  Li Xie thought of something mischievous, and the corner of his mouth on the right side rose high, revealing a small white canine tooth.

  "We've arrived at Haiyuan Palace."
