Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 583: Chapter 580: Red Dragon Horse (16th Update!)

The Primordial Spirit trembled all over, its face full of horror. When it looked at Shangguan Mingxin, it seemed as if it wanted to speak, but out of fear, it dared not utter a single word.

Shangguan Mingxin stepped back and handed the Primordial Spirit over to Su Han.

”Enter the city.”

Su Han spoke indifferently. This time, no guard dared to block their way.

However, the looks they gave Su Han and the others were filled with resentment.

The East Gate here was specifically manned by people dispatched from Jade Void Palace. It used to be guarded by the ordinary guards of Dragon Martial City, but things were different now with the Sect Competition being of great importance.

In the eyes of these Jade Void Palace disciples, daring to kill a disciple of Jade Void Palace right before Dragon Martial City, especially when one of the victims was a direct disciple of Elder Chen Yu from the Jade Void Palace, was akin to seeking death!

Although they dared not say anything at the moment, once Jade Void Palace found out about this incident, they would certainly not let them off.

Under countless scrutinizing gazes, the people from the Phoenix Sect, led by Su Han, grandly entered Dragon Martial City.

Wherever they went, there were many onlookers. Clearly, the incident that unfolded outside the city was already known to these people.

”They really have some nerve, this is the Central Domain, it’s like killing people from Jade Void Palace right on their doorstep!”

”They’re probably in for bad luck now. Given Jade Void Palace’s penchant for defending its own, they won’t let this go once they learn of it.”

”Indeed, it takes some soul power, but a Sixth-Rate Sect... tsk tsk, there’s trouble brewing for their future!”

”There’s no need to wait for the future. I heard that the news has already reached the ears of Jade Void Palace, and Elder Chen Yu is furious, currently rushing over here.”

”Elder Chen Yu? Are you talking about the one who has been in the Pseudo-Emperor Realm for five hundred years? That’s a true elder of Jade Void Palace!”

”That’s why I think these people won’t live long.”

Murmurs of discussion, though hushed and quiet, did not escape the incredibly sharp senses of Su Han and the others.

They paid no heed and continued walking calmly toward the central plaza of Dragon Martial City.

Flying was forbidden within Dragon Martial City, but the city was so large that it took at least several million miles from any city gate to the central plaza, and walking on foot would take a long time.

Thus, there was the business of ”carriage services.”

The so-called carriage services were actually a small-scale commercial operation set up by the Top Ten Super Sects within Dragon Martial City which featured many demonic beasts that could pull carriages at very high speeds.

Of course, hiring such carriages required spirit stones, and the price was by no means low.

Not to mention that it was the day of the Sect Competition – even on normal days, the business of the carriage services was excellent. At the end of the year, the spirit stones distributed among the Top Ten Super Sects were substantial.

It wasn’t just the carriage services; Dragon Martial City itself was jointly established by the Top Ten Super Sects. Aside from some very large powers like Myriad Treasures Pavilion and Dragon Martial Trading House, almost all other industries belonged to the Top Ten Super Sects.

This was also one of the main sources of spirit stones for the Top Ten Super Sects.

There were many carriage services, and about half an hour after Su Han and his group entered the city, they saw one.

The area it covered was not too large. The carriage services had special methods of controlling demonic beasts; despite the large size of these beasts, they could be shrunk down and stored in items like space rings.

Su Han looked up and indeed saw that no one was flying in the sky.

Along the way, they saw numerous people from high-order sects, such as the first-class Chang’an Mountain Gate, and second-rate sects like Jinling City, and so on; they even encountered disciples from the Demon Domain. Regardless of their level, all abided by the rules, walking within Dragon Martial City without flying.

Seeing as others were following this rule, Su Han, of course, did not want to stand out. After a moment of contemplation, he entered a carriage rental shop.

”I need a carriage, large enough to carry a thousand people. It would be best if it could reach the central plaza within five days,” Su Han said to an old man inside the carriage rental shop.

The old man’s pupils constricted when he saw Su Han and his group, before shaking his head and said, ”Gentlemen, it’s not that I am unwilling to do business with you, but... In Dragon Martial City, all carriage rental services are industries of the super sects, and Jade Void Palace has a share in it. You have offended Jade Void Palace, I dare not rent you the carriage!”

”Hmm?”

Su Han frowned slightly and said indifferently, ”While the carriage rental shops have shares from Jade Void Palace, they also have shares from other super sects. Just for the sake of Jade Void Palace, you’re not going to do business? If ten thousand people offended Jade Void Palace, would you decline them all?”

”Alas, where would you find ten thousand people who have offended Jade Void Palace? This is the Central Domain, right at Jade Void Palace’s own doorstep. I’m afraid you’re the only ones who dare to offend Jade Void Palace.”

The old man shook his head. Although he sighed, his expression was very determined, evidently he would not rent to Su Han and his group.

”Jade Void Palace really throws its weight around!”

Nangong Yu snorted coldly, walking out from the crowd. With a flick of his palm, he produced a token and threw it directly to the old man.

”Take a look, what is this?”

The old man caught the token, his eyes instantly narrowing as he stuttered, ”One- One Slash Palace... Young Palace?!”

”Now, will you rent us the carriage or not?” Nangong Yu said indifferently.

”Rent, of course, we will rent it!”

The old man quickly showed respect and bowed, ”I failed to recognize the Young Palace, I was blind. This carriage rental shop indeed has shares from One Slash Palace, and as the Young Palace, not only can you rent for free, but you should rent for free!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man immediately took out a round pearl from his space ring. The pearl looked crystal clear, resembling a jade bead.

”Young Palace, this is the highest level demonic beast of our shop, a high fifth order demonic beast, the Red Dragon Horse. With its speed, carrying a thousand people from here to the central plaza should only take a day,” the old man said.

”That fast?”

Many Phoenix Sect disciples showed surprise. The distance from here to the central plaza was millions of kilometers, and even if a Dragon God Realm fully exerted themselves, it would likely take at least two months to reach.

”The Red Dragon Horse is a high fifth order demonic beast. Although its attack power is not very strong, its speed is definitely first-class, comparable to a sixth order.”

The old man explained, ”Moreover, this is under the condition of Dragon Martial City’s aerial seal technique. If there was no ban on flying, the Red Dragon Horse could fly, and by flying, it would only take half a day to reach.”

”I see...”

The crowd showed realization.

Su Han’s eyes flashed, thinking that taming more such demonic beasts for traveling would indeed save a lot of time.

”Thank you.”

Nangong Yu was holding the round pearl, about to summon the Red Dragon Horse, but at that moment, a loud shout suddenly echoed over their heads.

”How dare you kill a disciple of Jade Void Palace before Dragon Martial City, you are truly brazen!”
