"My little brother, you and I were so naive when we wanted to be someone's mount! In fact, it would be free and easy to dominate a region by yourself. Unfortunately, you didn't understand this truth, and as a result, you died. There's nothing I can do for you. I can only give you a funeral so that your soul can rest in peace..."
The river beast was muttering to himself, when suddenly a demon beast walked in, poking its head out, with a few people following behind it.
"Everyone, what are you doing?" Chen Yang asked curiously.
This sound attracted the attention of all the monsters, and they opened their bloody mouths wide.
Xiao Ling rushed to the river beast's side and said, "Brother, I have good news for you. My master has successfully devoured the strange fire!"
"What, what?" The river monster was confused by this scene and even more at a loss for what to do by these words.
He looked up blankly at the master named Chen Yang, who was also his younger brother, with shock in his eyes. This person, this person seemed really different from before!
"Brother, what are you doing? A funeral?" Xiao Ling was full of confusion. She walked to the wooden shelf and saw a portrait of a huge rolling object.
With fangs and a bloody mouth.
"What's this?"
River Beast: "Ahem, it's nothing, little brother, your master is indeed not simple, let's go, let's talk inside!"
Then he looked up at Chen Yang and said, "Everyone, come on, let's talk inside!"
As he said this, he gave a look to one of his subordinates.
The subordinate was also confused: "What's going on? They're not dead, they're actually alive?"
Another monster leader said, "Not only is he alive, he's alive and well, without a single injury!"
"The strange fire didn't hurt them?"
"Did they actually enter the iron structure?"
The monsters raised questions one after another.
"Why are you saying this? The king wants us to close the shop!"
"Close the stall!"
He's not even dead, why hold a funeral?
The river beast led Chen Yang and the others into a large hall. There were five stone bases in the hall, and the bases were covered with the fur of monsters, which was very soft and smooth.
"Please take a seat, everyone!" said the river beast.
Chen Yang, Xue Qing, and Han Xiaotian sat down without any hesitation.
Soon, two female monsters came in. They looked at Xiao Ling with their watery eyes and put down the glass cups filled with nectar in their hands.
Chen Yang immediately smelled a faint floral scent.
"Everyone left in a hurry last time, and I didn't have time to give you this flower wine. I apologize for my rudeness." The river beast said politely, his eyes never leaving Chen Yang.
He still couldn't understand how this person could swallow the strange fire?
No wonder the iron structure collapsed, it turned out that the strange fire had been swallowed up!
He didn't feel comfortable asking Chen Yang, so he asked Xiao Ling.
"Brother, how could your master devour the strange fire? That strange fire is extremely powerful! Many powerful monks have been turned into ashes by it!"
Xiao Ling was also naive and never thought about why he didn't say this before.
Anyway, he hadn't witnessed the scene where Chen Yang narrowly escaped death by swallowing the strange fire, so he thought it was a simple matter and said to the river beast, "I told you that my master is a rare cultivation prodigy, a genius, who only appears once in a thousand years. What difficulty can it have for him to swallow a mere strange fire!"
The river beast laughed awkwardly and continued to ask, "Is it really not difficult at all?"
"Of course it's true!"
Xiao Ling shook her head and said, "When the strange fire saw my master, it didn't resist at all and entered my master's body obediently! But there was a demon cultivator who was really annoying and kept trying to snatch the strange fire from my master!"
To be honest, he had no idea what happened to the demon cultivator?
Maybe he's dead, he thought.
Seeing that what he said did not seem to be a lie, the river beast looked at Chen Yang again with amazement in his eyes.
His previous conversations with Xiao Ling were all spiritual communication, so Chen Yang and others naturally didn't know anything about it, but they knew that they were communicating.
Monsters naturally don't need to communicate in human language, so it doesn't seem strange. I just don't know what they would think if they knew what they were talking about.
"Haha, little brother, your master is really not simple. I admire you!" The river beast waved his hand, and a female monster beast came over immediately.
He whispered something in the female demon beast's ear.
The female demon beast nodded and left the hall.
"Young Master Chen has subdued the strange fire! From now on, this southern territory will no longer be a forbidden area for our River Beast Clan. This is a blessing. In addition, Young Master Chen's realm has been elevated, which is also a happy event. To celebrate this blessing and this joy, our River Beast Clan will host a grand banquet tonight. Young Master Chen, please come and enjoy it!"
"Ah, those monster meats again?" Xue Qing couldn't help but frown, feeling a blockage in her chest.
The river beast laughed awkwardly: "No, no, I guarantee you'll be satisfied with the food this time!"
Last time, in his eyes, these people were just dead bodies, side dishes for his group of death warriors to eat with wine, so naturally he would not treat them seriously, but this time it was different.
This person is really not simple!
Perhaps we can use this person to dampen the arrogance of the tiger demon clan.
There are many monsters circling near this ancient relic, and it is common for them to fight for territory and resources.
When passing through the territory of the river beast clan, very few cultivators were able to enter the inner area, and most of them died outside.
So the closer you get inside, the fewer bones you see.
Chen Yang picked up the glass cup and took a sip of the flower wine. He couldn't help but marvel at the taste! The monster clan actually had such a good thing.
The river beast was slightly delighted upon seeing this, and proudly said, "This flower wine is brewed with thousand-year-old spring water, hundred-year-old flower petals, and simmered with true qi. It is only for guests of honor!"
Chen Yang sneered, knowing in his heart that the monster leader did not expect that he could devour the strange fire and thought that he would definitely die there, so he was too lazy to waste time entertaining him.
It’s naturally different now.
However, they came back this time mainly to explore for the location of some more treasures.
"No matter what, it was the leader who provided me with the information about swallowing the strange fire this time. Thank you very much." Chen Yang said.
"You're welcome. You are my brother's master and the one he has his eyes on, so naturally I will tell you everything I know." The river beast laughed.
Han Xiaotian smiled slightly and remained silent.
Thinking of the scenes in the iron tower, he secretly said: "This is also called telling everything you know, and saying everything you know. This monster leader is not honest."
Chen Yang also heard what he said, but he didn't care much.
It is normal for these monsters to have selfish motives.
"I want to get more treasures, so please tell me everything you know." Chen Yang said slowly.
"Sure, sure."
The feast of the monster clan was ready. When Chen Yang took a look, he found that it was not just the skin and flesh of monsters stewed together, but some food with surging clear air and floating spiritual energy.
After eating the fasting pills for a long time, my mouth lost its taste, so this thing naturally became a delicacy, and I ate a big meal of it right away.
