Supreme Devouring God

Chapter 384: Chapter 384: A Painful Price!

Clearly, Ding Hao’s words were a threat.

The Blood Continent Sect might be strong, but even ants can kill an elephant if there are enough of them!

Moreover,

the Blood Continent Islands were not solely dominated by the Blood Continent Sect, as there was also the covetous Dismantling Demon Sect.

However,

compared to the threat in Ding Hao’s words, what Fu Feng wanted to know more was why Ding Hao was going out of his way to protect the Blood Emperor today?

What was the connection to the Blood Emperor’s unexplained assassination attempt on Qin Chen?

It probably wasn’t simple...

Fu Feng pondered deeply.

”In my view, why not settle it this way?”

”After all, this disruption was due to the Blood Emperor’s wrongdoing.”

”A compensation of four million stone coins, and we put this matter to rest, how about that?”

Ding Hao wasn’t keen on stirring up conflict with Fu Feng either.

After all, Fu Feng had the Blood Continent Sect backing him.

”Four million stone coins compensation?” Hearing Ding Hao’s words, Fu Feng sneered.

”If you want to drop the matter, it’s not impossible.”

”But first,”

”the stone coin compensation needs to be doubled.”

”Additionally, because the Blood Emperor trespassed in the Sea Sky Divine Palace, the Blood Emperor Sect must be stripped of its lifetime qualification to enter the Sea Sky Divine Palace!”

”These two conditions are non-negotiable! Missing even one is unacceptable!”

Fu Feng knew that if he still wanted to kill the Blood Emperor now, it would likely cause a multitude of problems.

It wasn’t that Fu Feng was afraid of trouble.

But he wasn’t just representing himself, he was representing the Blood Continent Sect.

He had to consider the Blood Continent Sect.

Most importantly, Qin Chen was, after all, still alive.

Therefore, Fu Feng put forward these two conditions.

Actions have been taken, and even if the crime was not punishable by death, a price must be paid.

These were Fu Feng’s final terms.

If not, he wouldn’t mind causing a huge commotion!

Eight million stone coins!

This was certainly an astonishing amount.

The wealth of an ordinary Heavenly Origin Realm expert was also around one million.

Eight million stone coins; this was almost comparable to the entire fortune of a Heavenly Origin Realm expert.

For anyone, this was a huge sum of money.

So at this moment,

upon hearing this astonishing compensation along with the lifetime banishment of the Blood Emperor Sect from the Sea Sky Divine Palace, everyone present was slightly shocked.

These two conditions were indeed rather harsh.

Eight million stone coins could deplete the entire Blood Emperor Sect.

Everyone knew that after today, the Blood Emperor Sect would likely plummet greatly.

Such was the price!

An incredibly painful price.

Seeing Fu Feng’s undoubtedly determined gaze, the Blood Emperor knew he had no room to bargain; he had to agree.

If not, Fu Feng might truly kill him.

Compared to his own life, the aforementioned conditions naturally didn’t amount to much.

With that thought,

the Blood Emperor could only nod reluctantly, thus accepting Fu Feng’s two conditions.

At that moment, the Blood Emperor was undoubtedly the most miserable.

The Blood Emperor Sect he had established with his own hands was nearly destroyed by his own actions.

He had even nearly lost his life at the hands of another.

His heart was filled with immense regret!

He regretted why he had agreed to Zhao Tengqi’s request to assassinate Qin Chen.

This filled his heart with hatred for Ding Hao in an instant.

After all,

if it weren’t for Ding Hao, none of this would have happened.

If it weren’t for Ding Hao taking a stand at the critical moment, the Blood Emperor really had the idea of exposing the truth.

Seeing the Blood Emperor nod, Fu Feng’s gaze also turned to Ding Hao.

”You’d better hope I don’t find out that the assassination attempt on Qin Chen has anything to do with you,”

Fu Feng narrowed his eyes, muttering under his breath.

Others couldn’t hear, but Ding Hao did.

However,

upon hearing Fu Feng’s words, Ding Hao’s eyes only flashed slightly, and he said nothing.

The affair concluded, and the leaders of the various major powers left the Sea Sky Divine Palace.

With three days remaining until the Sea Sky Divine Palace closed, people like Ye Zichen and the others, as well as Zhao Tengqi and Lin Songyun, were still inside the Divine Palace, exploring their fortunes.

However,

the news of Qin Chen’s encounter and counter-assassination of the five Blood Kings and the Blood Emperor from the Blood Emperor Sect spread rapidly across the Blood Continent Islands in an instant.

Once the news spread,

the entire Blood Continent Islands shook.

This incident would probably make everyone on the Blood Continent Islands remember the name Chen Qin.

Although every opening of the Sea Sky Divine Palace would result in many junior disciples gaining fame,

the commotion stirred by Qin Chen was unprecedented and could be said to be the first of its kind in history.

All over the Blood Continent Islands, people were discussing this event.

Those who had fought alongside Qin Chen, like the Bu Zheng couple, and the Blood Continent Sect disciples who had carried out assessment missions with Qin Chen, were deeply moved.

As of today, Chen Qin had grown to heights that they could no longer touch,

to a level that made the entire Blood Continent Islands tremble.

...

While the Blood Continent Islands were shaken by the affair involving Qin Chen,

inside the Sea Sky Treasure Vault,

Qin Chen had narrowly escaped from the hands of the Blood Emperor and entered the Sea Sky Treasure Vault. Without even having the time to look around and ensure there was no danger, Qin Chen hurriedly began to heal and regulate his body.

This time, his injuries were severe.

This inflamed Qin Chen’s intent to kill towards the Blood Emperor and Ding Hao, who was behind him.

Given time, neither the Blood Emperor nor the powerful Ding Hao would be spared by Qin Chen.

Even after he had thoroughly investigated his father’s information,

Qin Chen would not let the entire Dismantling Demon Sect go.

After all,

this attack nearly cost Qin Chen his life within the Sea Sky Divine Palace.

The danger was even greater than the assassination attempt on White Shadow Island.

His grudge against the Dismantling Demon Sect was deepening.

This time, Qin Chen spent more than a full day recovering. The Divine Power within the God Devouring Crystal was nearly exhausted before Qin Chen finally opened his eyes.

”Sigh.”

Qin Chen exhaled softly.

If it hadn’t been for Divine Power, his severe injuries would have likely taken a full month to heal, even with constant medication.

”It seems that using the Divine Demon Blood Burning Technique should be minimized in the future, especially burning three parts of Divine Demon Blood. While the increase in Cultivation is strong, the Weakness Period that follows is extremely deadly,”

Qin Chen muttered to himself.

The Divine Demon Blood Burning Technique indeed has both benefits and drawbacks.

Letting go of such thoughts, Qin Chen no longer dwelled on other matters.

He opened his eyes to take a proper look at his current surroundings.

Before, Qin Chen had been too injured to do more than confirm there were no immediate dangers.

Now, after a careful look, Qin Chen was immediately startled.

Because at this moment,

the place where Qin Chen was... was an expanse of... starry sky!

”Is the Sea Sky Treasure Vault actually an entire expanse of... starry sky?”

Seeing this scene, Qin Chen was profoundly shaken.
