Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 571: Chapter 7: Establishment of the Dragon Tooth Guards Air Force! (Part 1)

On the dark green waves, the giant ship sailed with its sails unfurled.

This sea area was murkier than the ones they’d passed before. It seemed as if another world was hidden beneath the sea, sustaining life.

On the deck, Kun and Mu Qingge stood facing each other.

Hmm...

To be precise, Mu Qingge was leisurely lying on a rocking chair, enjoying the view of the Bitter Sea. Kun, however, stood before her, muscles tense, with a guarded expression, refusing Mu Qingge’s invitation to sit down.

He was the one chosen by Mu Qingge to come aboard.

The promised ambush, the promised annihilation, was casually thwarted by Mu Qingge.

This time, the Sea Demon Clan lost, and lost miserably.

”Even if you pass through the sea zone controlled by the Sea Demon Clan, there are still other dangers, and you still won’t reach the Middle Ancient Realm,” Kun couldn’t help but say, looking at Mu Qingge’s casual demeanor.

Mu Qingge, however, smiled nonchalantly, ”I will reach the Middle Ancient Realm; no one can stop me. The dangers you’re referring to, are they the spirit beasts beneath the sea, and the remnants?”

Kun’s eyes narrowed slightly.

He looked at Mu Qingge for a long time before he finally said, ”It seems you’ve done your homework well.”

”Just so-so.” Mu Qingge barely nodded.

Ever knowing or not, she could only move forward. Knowing some insider information just made her actions more assured.

Mu Qingge lowered her eyes, her gaze falling on the Palace Bell tied to her waist. She held it in her palm, her fingertips lightly brushing its surface. This action seemed to have become an unconscious habit since she acquired the Palace Bell.

However, she did not know if her gentle touch would be sensed by someone far away.

A white shadow approached from a distance, descended from the sky, and transformed into Bai Xi.

Bai Xi walked up to Mu Qingge, glanced at Kun, and then said in a low voice, ”The people of the Sea Demon Clan have all retreated.”

This sentence made Kun lift his head and look at Bai Xi.

”You’re not human,” he said.

Bai Xi looked at him and gave him a charming yet disdainful smile without responding.

”Only spirit beasts of Divine Beast level or higher can transform into human form,” Kun said, looking at Mu Qingge in shock, asking, ”Who exactly are you? What kind of background do you have to be accompanied by a transformed Divine Beast?”

His eyes drifted away from Mu Qingge, sweeping over Mo Yang, over the Dragon Tooth Guards, and even over Yin Chen, who was guarding the lookout tower.

The more he looked, the more shocked he was.

Because he discovered that on this ship, not only was Mu Qingge formidable, but everyone was formidable!

Especially the white-dressed woman in front of him, whose human form was even more unfathomable. Her cold yet enchanting face gave an impression that was immeasurably deep.

”Who I am is not important.” Mu Qingge slowly raised her eyes to look at him. Suddenly, she smiled, ”You can go back now.”

Kun paused, frowning slightly.

He stared at Mu Qingge, as if pondering the truth of her words.

Seeing his expression, Mu Qingge deepened her smile and repeated word by word, ”I said, you can go back now.”

At this moment, Kun seemed to finally believe that Mu Qingge had no intention of being hostile to the Sea Demons.

What she wanted had always been clear.

She was merely passing through!

”Give me the antidote, and I’ll leave immediately; I assure you, no Sea Demon Clan member will come after you,” Kun said, extending his hand to Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge looked at him, confused, and asked, ”What antidote?”

Her reaction filled Kun’s eyes with a layer of anger.

Just as he was about to lose his temper, Mu Qingge smiled, ”I said I poisoned you, and you just believed it? Go ask Talisa, and you’ll understand.”

”What do you mean?” Kun’s eyes narrowed as he looked at her seriously.

Mu Qingge lazily twisted her neck, causing the rocking chair beneath her to sway gently. ”Bai Xi, throw him out.”

”Hey! What do you mean by that?” Kun said urgently.

However, Mu Qingge closed her eyes, unwilling to say more.

Bai Xi appeared before Kun in an instant, her speed causing Kun’s eyes to narrow into pinpoints.

Before he could react, Bai Xi flashed a coquettish smile, her voice disdainful, ”Boy, I’ll give you a send-off, ready?”

With that, the phantom of her serpent tail appeared before Kun’s eyes, and with a powerful swipe, it sent his body flying in an arc off the giant ship, becoming a black dot in the sky before finally disappearing.

With everything done, Bai Xi clapped her hands and returned to Mu Qingge’s side.

”Mo Yang.” Suddenly, Mu Qingge spoke with her eyes closed.

Hearing his name, Mo Yang straightened up, facing Mu Qingge.

”Go see if there’s an uninhabited island ahead where we can rest temporarily,” Mu Qingge instructed Mo Yang with her eyes closed.

Resting suddenly?

Mo Yang didn’t quite understand Mu Qingge’s intention but had no trouble following her orders.

After Mo Yang left, Bai Xi squatted beside Mu Qingge, watching You He and Hua Yue serve her, and said, ”You’re really enjoying this.”

But Mu Qingge seemed very tired and merely uttered a sound of agreement before falling into a deep sleep.

Seeing Mu Qingge like this, Bai Xi found it somewhat strange.

She looked at You He and Hua Yue, frowned, and asked, ”What’s wrong with her?”

You He and Hua Yue simply smiled and shook their heads, continuing to massage her shoulders and legs.

Bai Xi felt perplexed, slowly stood up, and glanced around.

With those siren women gone, the giant ship returned to its former tranquility.

All of a sudden, she felt a little at a loose end.

Raising her head to look at the lookout on the mast, Bai Xi’s figure flashed and disappeared from the deck, then reappeared at the lookout.

Seeing Bai Xi appear, Yin Chen’s blood-red eyes narrowed.

”What are you looking at, stinky fox?” Bai Xi glared at Yin Chen, and just as Yin Chen’s eyes narrowed to slits, she squeezed in front of Yin Chen and coldly said, ”It’s my turn now. You can go rest.”

Her words made a hint of surprise flash in Yin Chen’s blood-red eyes. ”When did the gluttonous snake start to think of others?”

The moment the words ’gluttonous snake’ were spoken, Bai Xi immediately glared angrily. ”Stinky fox, do you believe that when Qingge isn’t paying attention, I’ll gouge out your eyes?”

A trace of a cold smile appeared at the corner of Yin Chen’s lips, completely unafraid. ”Do you believe that before you gouge out my eyes, I’ll let you taste the pain of losing your tail?”

Bai Xi’s eyes suddenly turned purple-gold, human pupils transforming into snake vertical slits.

Yin Chen’s blood-red eyes became even more demonic and intense.

The two stared at each other, a silent battle unfolding in their gaze.

After a while, Yin Chen grunted and took a step back, bumping into the lookout’s rail. He looked at the smug Bai Xi, eyes full of cold sternness.

Bai Xi raised her lips in a teasing smile at him, her gaze full of provocation.

”Yin Chen, come down and rest.” Suddenly, Mu Qingge’s voice came from the deck.

The calm and easy voice startled the snake and the fox at the same time, like children caught misbehaving by an adult.

Yin Chen restrained the chill in his blood-red eyes, and Bai Xi also withdrew her provocation.

Silently glancing at Bai Xi, Yin Chen turned and jumped down from the lookout, landing lightly as a feather on the deck. Suddenly, a silver light flashed on him, transforming into a snow fox.

With a light sweep of his fluffy tail and a spring of his four limbs, he leaped into Mu Qingge’s arms and curled up on her legs, comfortably closing his eyes.

Mu Qingge did not show any dissatisfaction or resistance to this, seemingly accepting Yin Chen’s actions without question.

You He and Hua Yue curiously stared at Yin Chen, seemingly very interested in his trick of transforming into a human.

Watching this scene from the lookout, Bai Xi ground her teeth in anger. She spat hatefully, ”Damn stinky fox! How dare you use such a trick, thinking this would beat me?”

Taking a few deep breaths, Bai Xi suppressed her inner anger.

If she didn’t have to be on watch here, she would also transform into a little white snake and burrow into Mu Qingge’s collar. Humph!

...

Away from the giant ship, a small black dot suddenly appeared on the horizon.

The black dot quickly fell, gradually enlarging.

All of a sudden, it transformed into a humanoid shape, plunging into the Bitter Sea.

At the moment it sank, a sea spirit beast swiftly swam towards him through the deep sea, carrying him up to the surface.

”Pfft.” Kun spat out water and wiped the moisture from his face.

First, he gazed at the distant seawater, then looked down at the spirit beast beneath him, patting its head and softly saying, ”Thank you, You Tong.”

As if hearing his gratitude, the spirit beast beneath him let out a few calls in response.

”Kun——!”

At this moment, a voice full of surprise came from behind Kun.

Following the voice, Kun turned to see the Great Clan Chief and Talisa leading thousands of the sea demon army towards him.

Seeing familiar kin, Kun stood up on the back of the spirit beast.

As they approached, he first knelt on one knee before the Great Clan Chief and said, ”Foster father.”

The Great Clan Chief said with relief, ”It’s good you’re alright.”

”Kun, did he leave?” Talisa asked nervously.

The voice contained a hint of reluctance, which made Kun look up in confusion at her.

Being stared at by Kun made her a bit uncomfortable, and Talisa lowered her head, softly saying, ”He let you go and must have left far away.”

Kun looked deeply at Talisa and then turned his gaze to the Great Clan Chief, asking, ”Foster father, I was useless and didn’t get the antidote. I’ll go back and find him to get it back at once.”

”Wait, Kun.” The Great Clan Chief stopped him.

Kun looked at the Great Clan Chief in confusion.

The Great Clan Chief said, ”We’re just here to take you home.”

Kun was even more puzzled.

Suddenly, Talisa spoke up, ”He didn’t poison us at all, but rather saved us.”

What!

Kun’s eyes widened in disbelief.

All the problems plaguing the Sea Demon Clan for years were solved just like that?

Of course, it wasn’t entirely resolved, but it was enough to rekindle hope for the clan’s revival!

The Great Clan Chief nodded, ”After those women were taken back, they were examined carefully by the tribe’s doctors, and there was indeed no sign of poisoning. However, whether it will solve our clan’s reproduction issues as the human claimed, remains unknown.”

”He wouldn’t lie, and there’s no reason for him to lie!” Talisa wouldn’t allow anyone to question Mu Qingge.

This made the Great Clan Chief look at her worriedly, ”Daughter, you must understand one thing. Even if everything he did for the Sea Demon Clan is true, it doesn’t change the fact that he is human. You and he can never be together.”

”I know,” Talisa said weakly.

When she disembarked the ship, she already knew that Mu Qingge had no interest in her. With this parting, neither of them knew when they would meet again, let alone what might happen in the future.

She was the daughter of the Sea Demon Clan’s Great Clan Chief, burdened with the heavy duty of carrying on the lineage. Many things were not up to her whims.

She could indulge in some fantasies, but she couldn’t actually do anything about them.

Kun also gave Talisa a glance, then said to the Great Clan Chief, ”If all this is true, then he is a benefactor to our Sea Demon Clan.”

The Great Clan Chief nodded in agreement with his statement, ”If all is as he said, then he is indeed a benefactor to our clan, even though he is a human benefactor.”

Suddenly, Kun thought of something. ”Now that we know it wasn’t poison, the other clans certainly know as well. Won’t they be unwilling to be fooled and send pursuers after him?”

”That’s precisely why I’m here,” the Great Clan Chief said frankly. ”Our Sea Demon Clan has always been clear about enmity and gratitude. Since he hasn’t harmed our women and even healed them, he is a benefactor to us. I won’t allow others to repay kindness with enmity.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a wave surged up from the sea behind them.

Before long, several other clan leaders appeared before them with their troops.

”Big Brother!”

The appearance of the Great Clan Chief surprised them all.

The Fifth Clan Leader, speaking bluntly, said, ”Big Brother, we were played by that human! They weren’t poisoned at all! Quick, let’s catch up together, it’s still not too late. We must twist that despicable human’s neck!”

”Nobody is allowed to go!” the Great Clan Chief suddenly shouted in anger.

The four clan leaders froze, looking at him in confusion.

The Great Clan Chief said to Talisa, ”Talisa, tell your uncles the truth.”

Talisa immediately stepped forward and recounted what she had previously told Kun.

The four clan leaders looked at each other in disbelief.

The Fourth Clan Leader pondered for a moment and said to the Great Clan Chief, ”Big Brother, this matter is too mystifying. We don’t know if it’s his mere fabrication or if it’s true. How about we first catch up and capture him? Then we can detain him. If what he said proves true in the future, we can release him?”

The Great Clan Chief frowned at the Fourth Clan Leader, ”Old Fourth, I know you have always been cautious and smart. But do you really handle things this way? When will this matter be resolved? Do you plan to detain him for ten or eight years? Also, since our people are unharmed, why create unnecessary complications?”

”Big Brother...”

”Don’t talk nonsense with me,” the Great Clan Chief interrupted him with a raised hand. ”If he had harmed our women or killed our people, I wouldn’t need you to urge me; I would have sent out troops. But now, nothing of the sort has happened, and he might have truly brought hope to our Sea Demon Clan. We cannot repay kindness with enmity. Moreover, ahead lies the territory of the Lost Clan, and recklessly entering with troops would only lead to greater misunderstandings. Now, all of you, return with your men, and no one is allowed to pursue that ship!”

The Great Clan Chief’s firm words left no room for rebuttal.

Furthermore, this delay due to his obstruction made catching up even more unlikely.

”Big Brother, do you truly believe in those tall tales?” the Second Clan Leader couldn’t help but ask.

The Great Clan Chief glared at him, angrily saying, ”Whether they are true or not, when you return, you better try to see if you can get your wife pregnant and add another little one to your family.”

...

Mu Qingge’s giant ship moved steadily forward.

Not far in front of the ship, a small island shrouded in mist appeared.

As the giant ship approached the island, Bai Xi suddenly narrowed his eyes and said to Mu Qingge, ”Qingge, a spirit beast is approaching from the sea.”

A spirit beast?

Mu Qingge slowly opened her eyes, clarity shining in her pupils.

She rose from the rocking chair and walked towards the prow of the ship.

Reaching the front, she placed one hand on the railing and gazed downward.

Indeed, in the green seawater, a large shadow was approaching them. The distance appeared to be only a few hundred yards away.

”Alert all Dragon Tooth Guards to be prepared,” Mu Qingge ordered calmly.

Yin Chen transformed into human form and approached Mu Qingge, saying, ”If we start a massacre here, the scent of blood might attract even more sea spirit beasts. Why don’t I first use an illusion realm to confuse them? We can land on the island first.”

Mu Qingge considered it and barely noticeably nodded in agreement with Yin Chen’s proposal.

Seeing her approval, Yin Chen immediately exerted his power. His blood-red eyes continuously transformed, as if two blood-colored vortices were forming, and then the vortices gradually merged into one. A force shot out from his forehead, striking the sea surface.

The giant ship continued towards the small island.

The sea spirit beasts that had been approaching the giant ship halted, seemingly trapped in Yin Chen’s illusion realm.

Mo Yang sped up the ship’s course, and the island hidden in mist gradually became clear.

As the ship neared the shore, Mu Qingge noticed the fine sweat covering Yin Chen’s forehead, and his face had grown pale. Still, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Confronting so many spirit beasts with illusions was a substantial drain on spiritual power. Even though Yin Chen was now a true divine beast, he still felt the strain.

”Yin Chen, that’s enough,” Mu Qingge said to him.

Raising his eyes to look at her, Yin Chen finally nodded slowly.

He withdrew the illusion realm, and the sea spirit beasts, freed from it, became instantly agitated and charged wildly towards the giant ship.

”To the island!” Mu Qingge commanded. With her order, five hundred Dragon Tooth Guards, along with You He and Hua Yue, leaped from the ship towards the island.

”Bai Xi, go protect them,” Mu Qingge said, looking up at Bai Xi.

If there was any danger on that small island, having Bai Xi there would be ideal.

Bai Xi transformed into a white light and went ahead to the island, searching every path.

Meanwhile, Mu Qingge and Yin Chen also departed. As she leaped into the air, she waved her hand, storing the entire giant ship into a space, vanishing from the surface of the Bitter Sea.

The sea spirit beasts, suddenly deprived of their target, grew more frenzied. But Mu Qingge had already brought Yin Chen onto the island, landing on the island’s sandy beach.

”Young Lord.”

”Young Lord.”

As soon as Mu Qingge landed, the Dragon Tooth Guards surrounded her.

You He and Hua Yue squeezed in unceremoniously on either side of her.

At this moment, Bai Xi returned and said to Mu Qingge, ”I’ve checked it out. This is a barren island, apart from us, there’s nothing alive here.”

Mu Qingge nodded lightly and said to everyone, ”Those Sea Spirit Beasts will soon follow the scent to find us. Then, it will be time to test you all.”

After drifting so long at sea, it’s not bad to have the Sea Spirit Beasts come as practice.

Her words made Bai Xi’s mouth twitch.

But they made all the Dragon Tooth Guards eager to flex their muscles and prepare.

”Other humans avoid such swarms of Spirit Beasts at all costs. Yet you see them as a chance to hone your skills. You really are different from most people,” Bai Xi teased. His gaze swept over the excited faces of the Dragon Tooth Guards and said to Mu Qingge, ”Even they are different because of you.”

Mu Qingge heard the admiration in Bai Xi’s words and said proudly, ”My Dragon Tooth Guards truly are unique!”

A simple sentence, yet it made all five hundred Dragon Tooth Guards stand tall with pride and lift their chins.

Mu Qingge turned and looked toward the sea. The originally calm sea was now stirred up into turmoil.

”Prepare for battle.” As the first Sea Spirit Beast discovered the island and headed toward it, Mu Qingge instructed.

Swish, swish, swish—!

The Dragon Tooth Guards swiftly drew their weapons.

Some even took out grenade guns!

Their weapons were personally crafted by Mu Qingge, initially all Spiritual Artifacts. Upon entering the Bitter Sea, Mu Qingge selected some Middle Rank and High Rank Treasure Artifacts and reforged them, upgrading everyone’s weapons, even improving the precision and explosive power of the grenade guns.

This work also served as refining her skills as an Artifact Refiner.

Otherwise, she might only be a Spirit Level Artifact Refiner by now. With entry into the Middle Ancient Realm ahead, she needs to seize every moment to enhance herself.

Not just in cultivation but also in Artifact Refining Technique and Alchemy!

Boom—!

A thunderous sound rang out as seawater surged toward the island.

The island’s occupants retreated a few steps to avoid the sea’s assault.

As the water receded, numerous fierce and massive heads appeared from the ocean. Eyes as big as copper bells glared at the people on the island with chilling murderous intent.

It was as if, in their eyes, these people were a delicious feast!

Bai Xi glanced around, the light in his eyes flickering, he smirked: ”Most are High Rank Spirit Beasts. Seems the spirit beast levels in this Bitter Sea are robust.”

Then, with schadenfreude, he looked at Mu Qingge and said, ”But for you, it might not have much practice value.”

He seemed hopeful to see Mu Qingge’s face show annoyance, but alas, Mu Qingge remained calm.

”High Rank, so either Blue Realm or Purple Realm...” Mu Qingge mused slowly. Suddenly, she frowned slightly and shook her head saying, ”These aren’t the strongest yet.”

With that, she turned and walked deeper into the island.

Bai Xi was taken aback and chased after her, asking, ”Why did you leave?”

Mu Qingge continued walking without stopping and said, ”As you said, they’re useless for me. I’m going to cultivate first. Yin Chen’s with me, you stay behind to support them.”

After speaking, she disappeared with Yin Chen from Bai Xi’s sight.

Bai Xi stomped angrily, grumbling, ”Why is it always me!”

”That’s because Lord trusts you to leave the lives of so many in your hands,” You He said from behind Bai Xi suddenly.

Bai Xi spun around to look at her.

In her graceful expression, Bai Xi seemed to search for something.

In the end, he saw nothing and could only mutter, ”Is it trust?”

No matter how much Bai Xi believed You He’s words, he had no time to think because the battle had already started.

Bai Xi casually leaned against a tree with arms crossed.

He silently observed the Dragon Tooth Guards battle, it was his first time witnessing a combat operation up close.

Gradually, Bai Xi’s casual demeanor turned into serious observation.

Having existed since ancient times, having seen countless people and experienced countless battles, he’d never seen anyone possess the seamless coordination of these Dragon Tooth Guards.

If they could defeat the enemy alone, they quickly finished the battle.

If faced with tricky opponents, they would swiftly form small groups, coordinate as one, and efficiently kill the spirit beasts.

During each skirmish, they carefully excavated the beasts’ cores.

Even You He and Hua Yue, who appeared delicate and weak, were equally formidable in battle, precise in striking vital areas with sharp and decisive moves.

Neither the terrifying ferocity of the beasts frightened them into retreat.

These were individuals personally trained by Mu Qingge!

Bai Xi’s heart was quietly shaken; he realized his presence was redundant and unnecessary for intervention. He was only left behind because Mu Qingge gave them an added layer of assurance.

There were many Sea Spirit Beasts, with over a thousand rushing toward the island.

Yet the Dragon Tooth Guards fought more bravely, killing with ease and satisfaction!

Soon, the blood of spirit beast bodies flowed, staining the dark green seawater, mixing two colors that made the water around the island quite dirty.

The stench of blood further fueled the beasts’ assault.

They attacked more fiercely.

The bloody scent spread with the seawater, and no one knew what might happen next. Whether it would attract stronger spirit beasts or something else...

The beasts’ bodies were devoured by their kin, and a bloody scene played out along the island’s shore.
