Chapter 1559 - 571 - 579

Chapter 571: Priorities

West Sea City was the city of the Sea Race. The forest races and sea races were two different things and well water didn't mix with sea water. This was why even if West Sea City was very powerful, it was frequently forgotten by the forest giants because the sea races weren't suited to living in the forest.

But in terms of positioning, they were a part of the Forest of Chaos!

If West Sea City was involved, this situation was very dangerous.

West Sea City was not inferior to Dragon City or Titan City, but the most important thing was that there was the sea behind West Sea City, so they hid quite a bit of power inside the sea. This was something that no power had been able to investigate before.

Luckily Chu Tian had obtained this information, otherwise if West Sea City had gathered enough power, they could seep into the various areas of the forest through the rivers. When they suddenly launched an attack at that time, the Forest Alliance wouldn't be able to defend and they would suffer heavy losses!

Several general surrounded Chu Tian with the Blood Eagle King's angry roar. There was the sparkle of spirit energy around them, as they all tried to surround Chu Tian and take him down.

"No use, it's too late!" Chu Tian said with a faint smile, "I have a communication device on me invented by Miracle Commerce, so everything we have just said was sent to Miracle Commerce's headquarters and Miracle City tens of thousands of kilometers away. I believe Miracle City will begin deploying defenses against the Western Sea. Luckily you helped me with this large matter, otherwise it would be hard to imagine the consequences once it happened."

What?

Everyone was shocked!

From a normal perspective, even if one obtained information, it wasn't easy to send it somewhere. Even if they could send it, it might already be too late by the time it reached its destination.

Miracle Cite could obtain real time information tens of thousands of miles away, this was something that could go against the heavens. To Miracle City and the Forest Alliance, they wouldn't lack any information. For their future battles and wars, they would have full control of the situation!

The Blood Eagle King was filled with anger from shame, "Kill him! Kill him!"

The several dozen generals were all True Spirit Cultivators and they released their source spirits to attack. Although they were True Spirit Experts, their cultivations weren't high and with Chu Tian's 8th True Spirit Layer cultivation, these fellows weren't in his eyes at all.

They passed through his body and Chu Tian stood there without moving, not being hurt by their attacks at all.

Chu Tian grabbed two people like they were chickens and casually threw them out of the tent. He took several steps forward to look at the Blood Eagle King as he said, "Blood Eagle King, not to mention the fact you can't kill me, even if you could kill me today, you can't take anything back. The Eagle Ruler has feared you all these years, only he has never found a way to take care of you. However, how has the Eagle Ruler treated you these past few years?"

The Blood Eagle King's body was quickly surrounded by a wild and bloodthirsty energy.

"Just like I said, the Eagle Burial Kingdom does not have a chance to win. Instead of watching the Eagle Burial Kingdom slowly collapse, how about you turn that sword into jade with me? Everyone benefiting from working together, isn't that a good thing?"

Sou!

It was almost so fast that he couldn't see it clearly!

Chu Tian saw the Blood Eagle King turn into a blood coloured streak, instantly disappearing from in front of him. He appeared in front of him and an eagle claw moving more than ten times faster than the speed of light attacked Chu Tian.

There was no doubt.

The Blood Eagle King had reached the Heaven Domain Realm, a True Spirit Expert couldn't reach this speed and their attacks weren't this strong. Chu Tian's Void Escaping was shattered as those fierce glowing claws landed on his protective starlight. Five river like claw glows shattered the protective starlight while also sending Chu Tian flying.

Truly fast!

When Chu Tian had this thought, the Blood Eagle King had charged in front of him covered in blood red light, sending two claw glows at Chu Tian. Chu Tian couldn't keep up with the speed and his protective starlight was instantly shattered when it appeared, but Chu Tian had an incomparably strong body and he wasn't too heavily injured.

Of course, this was just temporary. If he was hit again, Chu Tian''s defenses wouldn't have any meaning.

Spatial Leap!

Chu Tian jumped into the air and disappeared into spatial waves, causing the Blood Eagle King's claws to fall into thin air. The Blood Eagle King's sharp eyes looked around and locked onto a position three hundred meters away. With a flap of his wings, he turned into several streaks before quickly chasing after Chu Tian.

Although the naked eye couldn't keep up to the Blood Eagle King's speed, but he could clearly feel it with his Divine Sense. When the Blood Eagle King caught up, Chu Tian condensed a black sword in his right hand and sent out several burning streaks of sword qi.

Peng!

The Blood Eagle King pulled out a blood red blade out of nowhere and cut through Chu Tian's sword qi. His speed was not affected at all as he continued to charge forward.

The Blood Eagle King was a Heaven Domain Expert, but his level wasn't high, having the same strength as Atu. The Heaven Domain Realm and the True Spirit Realm were an entire maor realm, it was simply a difference of heaven and earth, therefore there was no chance of winning. Not to mention the Blood Eagle King had his boost from the Eagle God's bloodline.

Dang!

Chu Tian clashed with the Blood Eagle King and powerful waves filled with air, instantly spreading in all directions. It pushed back all the soldiers that chased after them.

This was because they were just too fast.

A normal soldier couldn't keep up to their speed as they could only hear the explosions from the clashes above them. From the sounds of the battle, it seemed like neither side could get an edge over the other.

Not only were the Blood Eagle army generals shocked by this, even the Blood Eagle King found this unbelievable. Now to mention Chu Tian being in the 8th True Spirit Layer, even the gap between the peak 9th True Spirit Layer and the 1st Heaven Domain Layer was an insurmountable gap.

This human's cultivation was not high, but he had a shocking battle strength!

Of course, in terms of strength, the Blood Eagle King still had a major advantage, but Chu Tian had too many abilities. His Divine Sense, his cultivation technique, and his physique, with the three working together, he could fight several rounds with the Blood Eagle King without falling.

Of course, it was only making sure he didn't lose.

Chu Tian couldn't compare to the Blood Eagle King's speed or power, he was just using his Divine Sense to catch the movement of his attacks. He used the Starlight Immortal Body to block the attack and used his powerful restorative ability to keep fighting. He also could use his spatial movement technique to escape at any time. It was in this situation that Chu Tian could last several rounds without falling.

A True Spirit Cultivator could last this long against a Heaven Domain Cultivator!

This was something to be proud of!

Chu Tian retreated while shouting, "The Eagle Burial Kingdom won't succeed. If you are proud of the Eagle God Bloodline, you won't watch it being destroyed like this!"

The Blood Eagle King was completely enraged by Chu Tian's baseless words. There was a sudden faint layer of energy waves that filled the surrounding air and the aura around the Blood Eagle King became several times stronger.

This was the Domain Power of a Heaven Domain Expert!

At the same time, the Blood Eagle King activated his bloodline power!

The Blood Eagle King's power increased by several times. Whether it was his strength or speed, it was increased by a hard to believe extent. Chu Tian didn't dare be negligent faced with this empowered Blood Eagle King, so he jumped several hundred meters away.

Who would have thought that when Chu Tian had appeared, the Blood Eagle King disappeared a few times, charging forward at a speed the naked eye couldn't follow.

This is bad!

He most likely wasn't a match like this!

Chu Tian knew that he had increased his strength quite a bit and he couldn't find a match in the True Spirit Realm, but there wasn't much of a chance of winning against the Blood Eagle King head on. However, Chu Tian couldn't fight head on, couldn't he still play tricks?

His eyes turned gold!

Chu Tian used all his spiritual energy and Divine Sense in one attack, Endless Purgatory!

The Blood Eagle King couldn't react in time to block this terrifying attack. He was stunned for a second before spitting out a mouthful of blood and falling out of the air. It seemed like a short second for anyone else, but the Blood Eagle King was in the illusion world for a long time.

Chu Tian's mental attack was sharp, but a Heaven Domain Expert's spirit was very strong, therefore this terrifying move could only cause heavy injuries.

But these heavy injuries were enough!

Chu Tian didn't want to kill the other side, so he broke out in laughter, "Blood Eagle King, we'll have another chance to meet!" While saying this, Chu Tian activated a Transport Scroll. Before everyone could surround him, he had disappeared from their sights.

Chen Bingyu saw Chu Tian come back and immediately asked, "What is the situation?"

"There is some harvest, but it isn't easy to stir the Blood Eagle King to start a rebellion. The Blood Eagle King is injured and won't be able to organize an attack for three-five days, so we have enough time." Chu Tian came out of the Great Zhou transport location, "The Eagle Burial Kingdom can be dragged on, the most troublesome matter is the Western Sea. As long as we take care of the Western Sea problem, this plan against the Forest Alliance will not succeed."

"What should we do?"

"The news of the Dark Eagle army being defeated on the War Hound Plains will be spread soon to the Great Zhou Country and the Eagle Burial Kingdom, greatly reducing the morale of the Eagle Burial troops." Chu Tian said this before changing the topic, "We'll seize this chance to send rumours into the Eagle Burial Kingdom. We'll say that Blood Eagle King has colluded with the Forest Alliance, betraying the important information on the Western Sea to me. There was already a problem between the Blood Eagle King and the Eagle Ruler, so I believe the Eagle Ruler will be filled with fear from these rumours. The ruler and king will fight from this and I believe we'll buy even more time!"

There were priorities with all things!

The Eagle Burial Kingdom was threatening, but the worst case scenario is that they take over Great Zhou, Great Summer, and Northern Militant. This wouldn't be that detrimental to the Forest Alliance. Therefore the Western Sea was more frightening in comparison and Chu Tian decided to take a trip to West Sea City!

The forest and sea races didn't mix, so it was much easier to negotiate with them.

Chapter 572: Heading to the Western Sea

When Chu Tian came back to Miracle City, then young miss was very tired since she kept gathering information over the past few days. Even with the help of the Miracle City's powerful intelligence system, it was still a very tiring matter.

"The information you have obtained is very important, Miracle Commerce will use all their power to investigate this. Now we have confirmed that the Sea Race has entered this battle!" The young miss looked at Chu Tian as she gave a soft sigh, "Large amounts of Sea Race soldiers have secretly invaded the forest from the Western Sea and because they move through water, they move very secretly. So, the large forest forces still haven't noticed them yet.

The Sea Race was very troublesome.

No one knew just how strong the Sea Race really was.

But it was a very important step for them to find out the Sea Race's plans. It would be hard for this ambush to succeed if the various forest races were prepared and how could the sea races fight the forest races in the forest? However, there was no need to fight this battle. The sea race lived in different areas than the forest races, therefore there was no need for a direct conflict.

There was no other choice, he could only take a trip to the Western Sea.

Chu Tian didn't know what Alexis gave West Sea City to convince them, but whatever Alexis could give them, Miracle Commerce and the Forest Alliance could do the same. There was even a chance for them to cooperate!

"How long can the Great Zhou side last?"

"Because the Blood Eagle King was injured by you, he won't be able to immediately attack with his army. We have also begun to spread the rumours and the Eagle Ruler is feeling distrust towards the Blood Eagle King. This situation won't last long, at most we can stall the battle for ten days."

"Ten days? That's enough!"

Chu Tian left the City Lord's Fort to prepare to set off. He was about to leave after preparing his luggage, but he suddenly felt something and turned to say something out his room, "Stop sneaking around, can't you come in and talk if you need something?"

"Humph, what attitude is this!" Meng Yingying angrily jumped in. She was wearing a form fitting elven styled short skirt, revealing a pair of white and slender long legs. There was also a faint blush on her white and delicate cheeks. She was so cute that people wanted to take a bite out of her, "I've heard that you're going to West Sea City."

"Yingying is this worried about me, I am really too moved." Chu Tian went forward to pinch her cheeks as he said with a grin, "You can relax, I've gone to many places much more dangerous than West Sea City, I'll be fine!"

Meng Yingying rolled her eyes and suddenly said with wide sparkling eyes, "Who is worried about you? I've heard that West Sea City has the continent's most beautiful mermaid race, I'm worried about them. Don't you harm them in any way, otherwise there is no end between me and you!"

Chu Tian instantly revealed a sad look, "So it was me who was thinking too much. You think that I would actually hurt those girls, I never thought that I was like this in your eyes. We've known each for this long and you treat me like this, it really is too hurtful."

"No, no, I'm just randomly speaking!" Meng Yingying awkwardly scratched her head. She walked in front of Chu Tian and held his hand as he said, "I still believe in you!"

"I don't care, the injury is already there." Chu Tian said in an inflexible voice, "Shouldn't you help me cure it?"

Meng Yingying's face turned red before she stood on her tiptoes to place a soft as water peck on Chu Tian's lips, "Alright, you can be satisfied with this. Only knowing how to bully me, do you believe I won't tell elder sister!"

Chu Tian laughed as he held Meng Yingying in his embrace, "That move won't scare me. You're about to marry me, what can our elder sister do?"

"That isn't certain. Me and elder sister can't separate, at that time we….."

"What are you saying, I can't hear you."

Meng Yingying wanted to say that she would marry him together with her elder sister, but that would be too easy for this bastard. She only glared at him and spoke like a landlady collecting rent, "You said that you were prepared to marry me last time, tell me now, just how are the preparations going? This young miss' patience is very limited!"

Chu Tian gave a gentle smile, "As long as you're willing, I'll immediately shock the forest with a grand wedding ceremony!"

"That is more like it!" Meng Yingying revealed a smile like a little girl learning about love for the first time. She pursed her lips to think for a few seconds before saying, "It's said that West Sea City is the most beautiful city in the Forest of Chaos. How about after you take care of the matter with West Sea City, we….."

"No problem. As long as you want it, not to mention West Sea City, I can make it any place in this world."

Meng Yingying received Chu Tian's promise and the stone in her heart finally came down. She revealed a sweet and joy filled smile, "You have to keep your words!" After saying this, she immediately ran off.

Chu Tian watched Meng Yingying's beautiful figure leaving and his heart was filled with warmth.

Although he had lived two lives, he had never experienced romance before.

Meng Yingying was definitely not the most outstanding of all the women Chu Tian had seen, but she was the most comforting one for him. To have this person he could use everything to protect in the future, perhaps this was a great blessing!

Chu Tian always kept his words!

Since he promised to hold a wedding in West Sea City, Chu Tian had to win over West Sea City!

Miracle City had a square built in the center of a mountain and this square was completely paved with stone plates. It was very smooth and clean, not having any trash on it at all. There were several large factories around it and large amounts of Miracle City soldiers guarding them.

"Boss, over here!"

A beauty with a fiery body and head of red hair waved at Chu Tian, while there was a triangular metallic object behind her. It looked like it was made from light and firm materials and the surface was covered in ruins. The front ws as sharp as a needle and the end was rectangular. There was actually a large Source Energy Engine in it, so one could tell without even looking that this was a newly invented flying machine.

Nangong Yun casually introduced it to Chu Tian, "Our airship factory has had recent success. Although the frame isn't big, it has very high performance. It is made using Miracle Commerce's most advanced engine and source energy arrays, flying at a top speed of ten times the speed of sound. It already far surpasses the reaction speed of True Spirit Experts and even Heaven Domain Experts would find it hard to intercept in the air. How about it, not bad, right!"

Chu Tian nodded, "To develop this kind of flying machine this quickly, it really is not bad!"

"This is a test piece without any weapons, but the standard equipment will be one medium sized Source Energy Cannon, four destructive heavy firearms, and a set of all around protective shield. Whether it is the engine, the weapons, or the shield, they will all be made with the newest technology. It will become Miracle Commerce's main airborne fighting force in the future!"

"Not bad, not bad!" Chu Tian praised everyone's accomplishments, "Then let me personally test it out!"

Nangong Yun introduced the control system to Chu Tian, "This fighter plane has two major operating systems. The first is the manual operating system, which is the half hand operating system, but because the special control system for the fighter planes haven't been written yet since our Miracle Commerce is limited in people, we have outsourced the coding to the elves. The only system we can use now is the second method which is the spiritual energy control system. There is high requirement for a person's spiritual energy, but I'm confident in boss' ability. This minor problem will be a cinch for you."

Chu Tian sat in the cockpit and gave the ok symbol to Nangong Yun. He then placed the helmet with source energy arrays carved on it and released his spiritual energy. It instantly spread all over the entire plane and it was like the man and plane fused as one.

The source energy arrays were activated!

The engine released a light blue glow!

The triangular fighter plane broke the sound barrier as it slanted into the sky, disappearing from sight after a few seconds. Nangong Yun's eyes were filled with satisfaction, this was truly going to be a groundbreaking masterpiece for Miracle Commerce. Chu Tian used this chance to test it out and after a few more tests, Miracle Commerce could mass produce these.

If they could have ten thousand of these fighter planes.

It would be considered a powerful force even placed on the continent!

Chu Tian sat in the cockpit using his spiritual energy to control the fighter plane. The fighter plane kept increasing its speed and gradually surpassed speeds of ten times the speed of sound. The fighter plane was made of very special material, not shattering or creating sparks from colliding with air at such high speeds. The shock defense runes on the surface also canceled out most of the noise.

Miracle Commerce's development team was getting better and better!

Going from the small Yun Sect in the past Central State to a research development team that could grasp the most advanced technology on the continent. Perhaps there wouldn't be many people who could compare to them even on the entire continent!

Chu Tian performed various evasive maneuvers with his spiritual energy. Although he found some small problems, the overall system was quite responsive. If this weapon was placed in the battles of the continent, it would be able to gain control over the skies. As long as there were enough of them, they could deal with any airborne forces!

The boundless forest kept flashing under him and there were more and more lakes and rivers that appeared beneath Chu Tian. He knew that after a few hours, he was already approaching the Western Sea.

The west coast was the most western part of the entire continent.

After the west coast, there were quite a few continents and islands scattered across the sea, but most of it was still endless seas. People didn't really understand the areas covered by the seas, they only knew the life forms in the sea weren't less than the life forms on land, but they could be even more ancient and powerful in comparison.

The sea also created large civilizations and they were like the continent, interacting with each other, seizing resources, and even gathering together to create empires. In this era, because there were abundant resources, the sea and continent didn't have any conflicts. Naturally they also didn't have any contact, so both sides were very unfamiliar with each other.

In the next few thousand years, there would be major battles between the continent and the sea, forcing the land and sea races to have contact with each other and changing the situation with the continent.

Chapter 573: West Sea City

West Sea City, it bordered the Western Sea and was built above the Crystal Bay.

West Sea City was distributed like a crescent moon, while facing a giant bay. The water was clear without any impurities and the colourful coral shined in the sunlight, splendidly reflecting back the sun's rays. Each grain of sand was transparent, just like the world's purest crystals.

West Sea City was over five hundred meters tall with all kinds of buildings in it. There was the Crystal Palace, the Sea Conch House, and the Turtle Nest, all having strange shapes and having everything is should have, giving it a strong foreign taste to people. This was scenery that could not be seen among the land races of the continent.

Although West Sea City was a remote place, this place wasn't actually closed off because West Sea City had opened many routes, allowing several coastline merchants to directly enter West Sea City from the ocean. Therefore, West Sea City didn't just have the voices of the various sea races, there were also merchants from all over the continent doing business here.

Of course, these trade routes didn't provide direct access into the Crystal Bay. In an area around two hundred miles away from the Crystal Bay, there was a giant harbour specifically providing a place for foreign fleets to dock. Naturally there was a small town of several hundred thousand people that formed after a long time, they were all foreign merchants that had been here for a long time.

Outside the town, in the fishmen harbour, there were countless soldiers in dark gold armour, standing there like iron spikes in the ground. They didn't care about anything that happened in the outside world, they just kept looking into the distance.

With a splash of water, a giant iron ship suddenly appeared!

That giant metallic ship was filled with unspeakable might and pressure. Even if it was slowly moving over, it gave a strong oppressive feeling to people seeing it. This made all the surrounding people transporting their cargo reveal looks of shock.

The giant metallic ship used a flood dragon skeleton as a base and there was a flood dragon head hanging right on the bow. The round eyes were filled with killing intent and wildness, with the pressure it gave off causing the surrounding water to be void of any waves. Even looking at it from a distance, it gave people a deep oppressive feeling.

"The Big Dry Empire!"

"It's the ship of the Big Dry Empire!"

The giant metallic ship was still several thousand meters away, but twenty officers with long golden robes flew out. They passed over the thousands of meters as three hammers fell onto the bow. Each person didn't hide their aura at all, they were all experts in the 9th True Spirit Layer!

If this kind of person was placed in the Forest of Chaos, even if they weren't a City Lord, they would be second in command. However, on this giant metallic ship, they were just guards to open the path.

The Big Dry Empire was incomparably far.

From the terrible gashes on the giant metallic ship, they had experienced quite a few dangerous battles along the way. For an acknowledged human empire, they had at least several billion people in their country. They had to have at least two Heaven Domain Experts and True Spirit Experts like hairs on an oxen.

A truly powerful country!

Even if the entire Forest of Chaos was added together, it would be hard to match the Big Dry Empire. However, since the current Forest of Chaos was split apart, the Big Dry Empire didn't place them in their eyes at all!

The giant metallic ship slowly arrived in the harbour and two old men who looked like servants came out. Although they had simple clothes and looked humble, their eyes were incomparably cold and gave off an aura that shocked people to their hearts.

If the servants were like this.

What would the master be like?

The two servants and the twenty high level True Spirit guards opened the way, as large amounts of beasts appeared from the deck. There were four-five hundred cavalry in formation, with several dragons coming out pulling a carriage, heading towards West Sea City.

"The Big Dry Empire's Sage Yuwen Xi!"

Someone from the harbour recognized this person and they all kneeled down on the ground. They had humble expressions and didn't dare look forward, but there was one exception. That person was wearing a grey robe and was wrapped up in a straw cloak. Although he looked very normal, his aura was indeed quite outstanding. The skin that was revealed seemed like it was crafted from jade and there was a cute little white fox on his shoulder.

The young man looked at the dragon carriage heading off and said in a dissatisfied voice, "Damn, what fellow is here? Can't you be a bit more low key as a person!"

"Be quiet!" An old man quickly stood up to glare at him as he said, "Senior Yuwen Xi is the Big Dry Empire's conferred Sage. Daring to make impertinent remarks, are you not afraid of death?"

Sage?

Was a Sage that amazing?

Father was conferred as a Great Sage before!

Chu Tian revealed an uncaring look. The Sage in this era might not even be comparable to a Great Scholar from tens of thousands of years in the future, how could Chu Tian place him in his eyes?

Yuwen Xi gradually went further away and the harbour returned to normal.

The leader of this fleet Old Mo was very dissatisfied with Chu Tian's expression. Old Mo was a well known merchant in West Sea City, having a total of over a hundred ships, doing all kinds of business across the coastline. They had met this human who said that he had treasure to sell to them, that's why they brought him along.

Who would have thought that this person would be so arrogant, daring to offend someone like Yuwen Xi? To destroy their little, it would only take a simple breath!

Chu Tian could only admit his mistake and promise he wouldn't do it again.

Old Mo was a rather well known merchant and the West Sea City's City Lord's five hundredth birthday was tomorrow, so Old Mo had a chance to head into the palace to participate. Chu Tian was relying on this old man to have a chance to approach the West Sea City's City Lord.

Old Mo asked Chu Tian, "You said that you had a precious treasure, was it true?"

"Could it by I was lying to the elderly? Please take a look!" Chu Tian revealed a smile hiding nothing and reached out into his chest, taking out a jade box. He casually opened the jade box and a golden fruit appeared in front of their eyes. A faint immortal spiritual aura filled the surrounding area, "A third level Half Step Immortal Treasure, the Golden Dragon Immortal Fruit. Is this enough?"

Everyone's attentions were instantly grabbed.

When everyone saw this Immortal Herb, their eyes became passionate.

It was a Half Step Immortal Herb, it was actually a Half Step Immortal Herb that was at the third level! It really wasn't simple!

How many people among these merchants had seen an Immortal Herb? For this youth that didn't look that old was casually taking out something like this, how could people not be shocked?

Old Mo was the one that was most filled with joy. He had the qualification to join the West Sea City's City Lord's birthday banquet which was a glorious and precious matter, so how could he not prepare a rich gift when going? Old Mo couldn't find a good item for this event, but now that there was a Half Immortal Grade treasure that one couldn't ask for in front of him, how could he not be excited?

Old Mo didn't even have time to speak.

"Brat, sell your treasure to me!" A tall and powerfully built spirit beast man came over, "However much source stones this old human can give you, I can also give you!"

Old Mo was worried, "Kui Gang, you….."

"This belongs to me, one thousand source stones!" The spirit beast named Kui Gang who was very overbearing glared at Old Mo as he spoke, "Whoever dares compete with me, be careful on your trips from now on!"

Everyone revealed looks of fear. Old Mo was filled with rage, but he was helpless about this.

Kui Gang was also a merchant, but how could a spirit beast understand how to do business? He was the leader of a gang of pirates from the beginning and was infamous in this place. Anyone who dared annoyed him shouldn't think of having any peace from now on.

One thousand source stones?

He wants to buy a precious Half Step Immortal Herb for one thousand source stones? This was no different from a robbery!

Kui Gang didn't place Chu Tian in his eyes. When he saw this fruit, he already treated this fruit as his!

"Take it!"

Kui Gang's two subordinates fiercely walked in front of Chu Tian.

Chu Tian said with a faint smile, "It's not very smart to take things from my hands!"

"Humph, brat who doesn't accept an offered toast!"

One of them took out a dagger from his waist and wanted to cut off Chu Tian's hand holding the jade box. In the end, he used two fingers to grab the blade and the dagger was completely stuck, unable to move at all.

"You dare act up with this bit of strength?"

Chu Tian's strength and spirit energy was activated at once, as his fingers snapped the blade like glass. It scattered all over the spirit beast's body and it filled him with several holes.

The other spirit beast wanted to run after seeing the bad situation.

Chu Tian sent out the back of his palm and shattered all his bones. He was sent flying several dozen meters and landed into the water, spilling blood all over.

Kui Gang's face fell and he prepared to release his source spirit.

Chu Tian softly flicked a finger and Kui Gang's bones, flesh, and armour were all shattered by an unknown power. When he fell to the ground with a pitiful cry, he couldn't fight back at all.

The surrounding merchants all revealed looks of awe.

Kui Gang was still a True Spirit Cultivator, he couldn't even take a single hit?

Chu Tian took care of the trash as easily as pinching a few ants. He treated this as taking care of a small matter and he didn't even spare them a glance. He turned to Old Mo and said, "Now can we make a deal?"

Everyone finally understood.

There wasn't a problem with this human's brain, he dared show everyone his treasure meaning that he was confident in keeping it. However, based on the display he just gave, he indeed had the qualifications to be confident!

Old Mo swallowed a mouthful of saliva before saying, "This value is very high, we can only determine a price after appraising it."

Chu Tian shook his head and said, "I can sell it to you at half price, but I have a small request."

"Request? What request?"

"I admire the beauty of the mermaids of West Sea City and there is a rare chance right now. I hope that you can help me by bringing me into the West Sea City's City Lord Palace."

That simple?

Naturally it was this simple!

Old Mo wanted to go to West Sea City anyway, bringing an extra person will not draw that much attention.

Chapter 574: Bidding

West Sea City's guards were more strict than Chu Tian had imagined!

Therefore he had to find a suitable reason to approach the West Sea City's City Lord.

West Sea City was greatly different from the Blood Eagle King's camp. Chu Tian could walk into the Blood Eagle King's camp mainly because the Blood Eagle King himself wasn't that strong, so Chu Tian could run at any moment with the Transport Scroll. It was unclear how strong the West Sea City's City Lord was, but based on the information from the Elven King, they were not weaker than the four giants. Chu Tian had to be discrete when dealing with this kind of Heaven Domain Expert.

Not being careful might mean failing to teleport.

This West Sea City's City Lord was different from the Blood Eagle King!

The West Sea City's power not did just represent the sea domain, but also a part of the Forest of Chaos!

Once the West Sea City's relations were cut off, there would be many problems for the Forest Alliance. With all kinds of things to consider, Chu Tian had to be discrete, at least he couldn't anger the West Sea City's City Lord.

Chu Tian had sold the herb at a preferential price to Old Mo and Old Mo temporarily accepted Chu Tian into his company, bringing him to the West Sea City's celebration banquet. However, Old Mo kept telling him not to cause trouble in West Sea City, otherwise he wouldn't be able to protect him.

Of course Chu Tian agreed to him.

That night, their merchant group left for West Sea City.

West Sea City's defenses and customs were very strict, they had to pass through several barriers and restrictions. They passed through groups and groups of Sea Race soldiers before finally entering West Sea City.

West Sea City was a city in a bay, with many of the Sea Race buildings being built right on the seafront and some buildings even being placed underwater. There were all kinds of residents here, going from the slow and firm turtle soldiers, to the fierce and violent shark soldiers, to even the whale soldiers who were at least ten meters tall.

There were also many shrimp and crab soldiers as well. In short, there were all kinds of sea races in the streets of West Sea City.

Just like spirit beasts, the sea races did look like marine species, but their figures were more like that of humans. It was not a fish or a crab walking upright, but rather more like a mix of marine species and humans.

West Sea City was worthy of being called the most beautiful city of the Forest of Chaos.

There was not only beautiful scenery here, it had a unique grace to it. Compared to the extravagant look of Dragon City, this place seemed more natural and artistic. Compared to the primitive Eternal Forest, this place was more bursting with life.

"We'll stay the night here."

A beautiful conch house appeared in front of Chu Tian and each one was a room that was around three meters tall. They were arranged based on the style of the continent races, so there was no feeling of discomfort at all.

The West Sea City's City Lord's birthday banquet would start tomorrow.

Chu Tian prepared to stroll around the neighbourhood.

"Do you see that giant tortoise shell in front of us?" Old Wu pointed his finger at a giant tortoise shell that was several dozen meters tall and over a hundred meters wide as he said, "That is West Sea City's famous Giant Turtle Bazaar. The Giant Turtle Chamber of Commerce is West Sea City's largest company, we have traded with them before. You can go stroll over there if you're interested in trading, perhaps you'll be lucky enough to pick up a treasure."

Interesting.

Chu Tian directly went to the Giant Turtle Bazaar. The Giant Turtle Bazaar was bigger than he had imagined, but it was also a bit messy because it was separated into two parts. One part was for trading with the Giant Turtle Chamber of Commerce as an intermediary and the other part was for free trade. Trading with an intermediary was letting the company sell for them and free trade was open to all to trade in, letting them set up stalls to trade with.

The commodity inside the Giant Turtle Bazaar were all deep sea materials.

This was something that couldn't be found in the forest or on land, so bringing West Sea City into the alliance was very important to Miracle Commerce.

The little fox felt something and sniffed with its nose. It immediately pointed in a direction for Chu Tian, signalling that there was something good in that direction.

"You found something?"

The little fox ran in front of a stall and the owner looked like a simple, honest turtle man. The turtle clan were generally tall and strong, with four rather small limbs. They had faces that seemed like those of humans, but their bodies were wrapped inside a natural hard shell. This hard shell was a part of their body and it was as important as a skeleton to humans. It would become stronger as they kept growing, being able to defend against more and more attacks.

The turtle clan's stall had some things fished out of the deep sea. Other than some strange looking coral, there were also some old items. They looked like things that wouldn't attract people's attentions, but the little fox smelled an unusual scent coming from it, which came from a bead that looked very normal.

Chu Tian intentionally picked up the bead in a casual manner and used his Divine Sense to simply look over it a few times, discovering some things. This should be an inner core from a great ancient demonic beast. A demonic beast was completely different from a demon beast, with the demonic beast inner core being worth a very high price. Looking at the aura coming from inside the core, it shouldn't be weaker than the Void Beast Chu Tian killed inside the Purgatory World space.

Of course.

This was because there was a thick layer of stone that appeared on its surface from being left for a long time. If one's Divine Sense wasn't strong enough, naturally one couldn't find its true value.

Chu Tian gave a soft cough and spoke in the human language to ask, "How much is this stone?"

The turtle man was stunned, it was clear that he didn't understand the human language. Since he couldn't communicate, Chu Tian pulled out several pieces source stones. The turtle man shook his head seeing this and Chu Tian kept adding, but the turtle man kept shaking his head.

The two of them used this method to keep bargaining back and forth.

When Chu Tian added two hundred source stones, the turtle man finally showed a satisfied expression. When the two sides were about to trade, there was suddenly a very moving female voice that came from behind, "Stop, I want this demonic beast's inner core!"

Chu Tian was filled with anger.

Damn, who is ruining father's good thing!

A girl who was very tall walked over, being over one meter and seventy five centimeter. Her body was nice and full, with snow white skin and long golden hair that were like waves on her back. Whether it was her aura or her appearance, she was completely perfect.

The most enticing thing were those long legs.

This girl had artistic legs that seemed to be carved out of crystals, having a graceful shape, not being thin or fat, perfectly fitting her tall stature. She gave off an aloor feeling, so this girl must be an outstanding person.

"Who are you?" Chu Tian had seen many beauties, so he wasn't surprised at all, "First come first serve, don't you know that? I have already bought this stone!"

The golden haired beauty revealed a look of disdain and was too lazy to reply to Chu Tian, "This is the inner core of a ten thousand year deep sea Eight Claw Demon, it has a very high price. It is very important to me, so I will give fifty thousand source stones. Sell it to me."

What? Fifty thousand!

The turtle man almost thought he heard wrong!

The golden haired beauty continued to say, "Some sly fish thought they could get it cheap, don't be tricked by him."

Chu Tian's temper instantly flared. A girl like you dares look down on me? If we speak in terms of money, would father lose to you? He didn't even think as he said, "You're taking out fifty thousand? Good, I'll add another ten thousand! Sell to me!"

Chu Tian took out six heavy bags of source stones from his storage item.

The golden haired beauty was very stunned, "You….."

The turtle man looked like he had been slammed by a hammer!

This simple dressed human actually raised the price by ten thousand source stones. To a normal cultivator, ten thousand source stones was a number they could never finish using in their entire life!

Chu Tian blinked innocently, "Can we make the trade now?"

"Stop, isn't sixty thousand the starting price?" The golden haired beauty knit her brows before throwing seven bags onto the ground, "I'll take out seventy thousand source stones!"

Chu Tian didn't even think as he threw out another two bags, "Eighty thousand!"

The golden haired beauty was a bit angry as she glared at him, "Ninety thousand source stones!"

"A hundred thousand!"

"A hundred and ten thousand!"

"A hundred and twenty thousand!"

The two of them kept calling out prices, gradually surpassing the price of this inner core, but Chu Tian wasn't willing to retreat at all. I have nothing but money, want to bid with me! Simply seeking death!

The golden haired beauty's face became more and more white.

She was not stupid, she could see this damn human was very rich. These ten thousand source stone bids seemed like nothing to him at all!

The golden haired beauty resisted the urge to charge at him before throwing another bag of source stones down. Her body was trembling a bit, "One hundred and fifty thousand source stones!"

This was already three times the original price. Although the inner core was very valuable, one had to divide it into type. The Void Beast was a rare space attributed demonic beast, it wouldn't be strange for its inner core to be worth one-two hundred thousand. This inner core was just water attributed and its effects were quite weak, so the current price was a very high price.

"A trivial hundred and fifty thousand?"

Chu Tian disdainfully dug into his spatial bag, but he was suddenly stunned.

No more?

Chu Tian suddenly remembered that he had only brought one hundred and fifty thousand source stones. This to any other person or power was not a small amount, he never thought that he still wouldn't have enough.

He had to not have any more at this time!

The golden haired beauty saw that Chu Tian was out of money so she immediately said, "Don't be embarrassing if you don't have anymore! Quickly scram!"

"I can't take out anymore?" Chu Tian couldn't stand being looked down on by girls, "Just wait, give me a day. Wait for me to bring more source stones….."

"Who wants to waste time with you!" The golden haired beauty gave a snort, "One word, are you selling or not?"

The turtle man was already faint from seeing the source stones, a bit more or less didn't matter to him now. He just wanted to take the source stones away, so he quickly traded with the golden haired beauty.

The golden haired beauty looked at Chu Tian with disdain before turning with a snort.

He had lost to a girl!

This was simply the greatest shame for Chu Tian!

But what background did this girl have? She looked like a human based on her appearance, but Chu Tian could feel an abnormal aura coming from her, so she shouldn't be a normal human.

A person that could casually take out one hundred and fifty thousand source stones, they were definitely not a simple person!

Chu Tian had suffered this loss, so he wasn't in the mood to keep wandering. He went back to the coral house to sleep, waiting for tomorrow to see the West Sea City's City Lord.

Chapter 575: Deep Blue Empire

The West Sea City's City Lord's birthday banquet, it was the city's greatest celebration and the most important holiday!

Every West Sea City citizen and outsider were all wearing extravagant clothes with their own race's style to it. Large amounts of delicacies were being brought into the harbour by boats while colourful fireworks lit up the sky. The crystal lamps were like flowers blooming in the city, as the sounds of singing and the scent of fragrant meat drifted through the city.

The City Lord's five hundredth birthday was much more important than any previous year.

West Sea City was not as rich as Dragon City because West Sea City had only been built for a few hundred years. The Dragon Lord Death Wing Nidhogg was an ancient dragon who had lived over ten thousand years, this accumulated time was not easy to surpass. However, West Sea City's liveliness did not lose to any city of the Forest of Chaos. The giant harbour was a trade center of the Western Sea, allowing various countries to trade through it, so the turnover each day was a shocking number.

West Sea City progressed with each day and just based on the trade ships, they could become the most prosperous area in the region. In the future, it wasn't impossible to surpass the accumulated wealth of Dragon City. It was because of West Sea City's developed trade routes that when West Sea City's City Lord was holding a celebration banquet, various sides came to offer expensive gifts.

This annual banquet in West Sea City became an important moment in creating relations.

Old Mo brought Chu Tian into West Sea City's magnificent Merpeople Palace. Chu Tian already knew that the controlling power in West Sea City were the Merpeople, which was a rare Sea Race and a mysterious race. In the age Chu Tian lived in, the Merpeople had already gone extinct.

The banquet officially began.

The hall in the Merpeople Palace could hold several thousand people and the guests were separated based on their rank. Old Mo was just a well known merchant, so he was considered one of the lowest ranking people and was seated at the most remote area.

"The City Lord is here!"

The conch bugles sounded out loud and clear!

Several dozen beautiful mermaid servants came out in two rows. The audience heard the sound of a wave and it was like being on an island while being surrounded by giant waves that could submerge the island at any moment.

Everyone knew that these weren't real waves, but rather the aura released by an expert who was at least in the 6th Heaven Domain Layer. This expert would be considered an expert even placed on the continent and the entire West Sea City only had one of those, the City Lord.

But what surprised everyone was that behind the powerful aura, it was actually short and wrinkled old lady with greying hair.

"It can't be, this is West Sea City's City Lord?" Chu Tian saw the wrinkled old lady with greying hair and called out in a surprised voice, "Wasn't the legendary West Sea City's City Lord a beautiful mermaid? Why is it this old lady!"

"You, you, you….." Old Mo almost fainted in fear. He quickly looked around before saying to Chu Tian, "Do you not want to live?"

Chu Tian shrugged his shoulders and said, "What are you afraid of? She can't hear anyway!"

Old Mo suddenly regretted bringing this fellow in, "How high of a position does the West Sea City's City Lord have? Can you confirm that she can't hear us?"

"I'm afraid sir City Lord is on the verge of death."

"What nonsense are you saying?"

Chu Tian's eyes focused and didn't have any taunting look at all, "The Merpeople have long lives, with normal Merpeople living around four-five hundred years and Heaven Domain Expert's having double that time. Merpeople look young most of their lives and only when their lives reach the end will they quickly age. The City Lord is only five hundred years old and looks this old, it's most likely she was injured and is now spending most of her energy suppressing those injuries. How could she have the mind to listen to what we are speaking?"

"Nonsense, don't speak nonsense!" Old Mo's nose was almost crooked from his rage, "Don't care about this! If you keep acting like this, I'll drive you out!"

"Alright, alright, I understand!" Chu Tian rolled his eyes, knowing it was hard to convince him. Since father is here, you still want to chase me out? So he said in a discourteous voice, "An old man like you is really wordy!"

The old City Lord slowly sat down and the banquet officially began.

"The Dragon Hawk Chamber of Commerce sends five hundred Five Coloured Star Drills, wishing the West Sea City's City Lord well wishes!"

"The Great Origin Country Chamber of Commerce sends ten dragon pelts, wishing the West Sea City's City Lord well wishes!"

"..."

The various guests offered their expensive gifts and all manner of dazzling gifts piled in the main hall. There were several Immortal Grade items in there and even with Old Mo's hard to find item, it would only be considered a middle grade gift.

But even so, people were still amazed by Old Mo.

To be to give a level three Half Step Immortal Herb, this was not something any merchant could do. It depended on great strength and great chance.

Old Mo was filled with excitement. To attract the attention of these people was very important to him. This banquet was not just about showing off, it was also important to meet people that he normally couldn't meet. A merchant's business increased proportionally with their connections.

Chu Tian now knew that West Sea City was actually this powerful.

These people that came to give gifts, they were all top companies of the continent. There were also many kingdoms among them, going from small kingdoms to large kingdoms, even having one-two warring kingdoms. Chu Tian never would have thought that these kingdoms and companies would come this far to trade with West Sea City.

When the atmosphere became lively, a voice suddenly sounded out and the surrounding audience was pushed out.

"The Big Dry Empire's protecting Sage Yuwen Xi brings one hundred soul contracting weapons and twenty level three Immortal Herbs, wishing the West Sea City's City Lord best wishes!"

Everyone was shocked hearing this.

The Big Dry Empire's protecting Sage Yuwen Xi, he actually personally came to West Sea City to present a gift?

To be able to become an empire level power on the continent, how could they be normal people? The Big Dry Empire was one of the most powerful human kingdoms, this powerful existence could casually destroy five-eight warring kingdoms!

Yuwen Xi was the Big Dry Empire's protecting Sage, while also being the Imperial Tutor. He had a high and important position, perhaps even the kings of normal kingdoms would bow to him. Now he had personally come to congratulate the West Sea City's City Lord on their birthday? This is giving the West Sea City's City Lord quite a bit of face!

The old City Lord's half narrowed eyes suddenly opened, "Sir Sage's gift is too heavy. This old lady is just a trivial City Lord, how could I take the Big Dry Empire's gift?"

"Ha, ha, ha!" A mature and powerful laughter filled the hall, "Governor Bo Sha was one of the four governors of the Deep Blue Empire, how can you not take this old man's trivial gift?"

When these words were said.

There was a powerful aura released in the hall that was like a roaring flame spreading in all directions, instantly pushing away most of the old City Lord's aura. There was an old man covered in light that walked onto the stage and each step made the light brighter. It was like looking at an immortal descending upon the earth.

Chu Tian understood that this was the Domain Power of a Heaven Domain Expert, those not in the Heaven Domain Realm couldn't resist it at all.

This was the famous Yuwen Xu?

A Sage was a scholar's conferred title.

A scholar that could be conferred as a Sage was a peak talent in this era. Not to mention that Yuwen Xi was a Heaven Domain Expert, one that wasn't weaker than the West Sea City's City Lord, truly worthy of being the Big Dry Empire's Imperial Tutor!

What was even more shocking was what Yuwen Xi said, the West Sea City's City Lord could be from the Deep Blue Empire!

Chu Tian was a bit confused, "Is the Deep Blue Empire very famous?"

"You don't even know about the Deep Blue Empire?" Old Mo said with knit brows, "The Deep Blue Empire was the biggest and richest empire in the Western Sea, but it fell apart from a civil strife a hundred years ago. It has already turned into several powers and Deep Blue only exists in name. It's said that the Deep Blue Empire had four governors, who would have thought that the West Sea City's City Lord was one of them? This news is just too shocking!"

How strong was the Deep Blue Empire in the past?

No one thought it would fall from civil strife!

Because of the collapse of the Deep Blue Empire, the entire Western Sea's powers fell into chaos, with only the Western Sea's coast being relatively peaceful. Who would have thought that the West Sea City's City Lord was one of the powerful governors of the Deep Blue Empire? Perhaps people wouldn't believe it if it was said by someone else, but people didn't have a reason to not believe if it came from Yuwen Xi.

What kind of position did Yuwen Xi have? How could he speak nonsense!

A cold glow flashed in old City Lord Bo Sha's eyes as they went back to their half closed original state. After a few coughs, she said, "Imperial Tutor Yuwen has come to my West Sea City, I'm afraid it's not just to reveal this old lady's identity. Deep Blue no longer exists, is there anything else you're not satisfied with?"

"City Lord is mistaken!" Yuwen Xi gave a few quick laughs as he kept coming forward. Each step caused the pressure on Bo Sha to become a bit stronger. Before the guards could even come over, they were all pressed down. Yuwen Xi said in a forceful and gentle voice, "This old man has come on the Big Dry Emperor's order to ask for marriage from West Sea City!"

Marriage?

What marriage?

Chu Tian was completely stunned, it wouldn't be for this old lady, right? The Big Dry Emperor's tastes are a little too heavy.

Yuwen Xi continued to say, "It's said that Deep Blue had a pure blooded Princess Bo who Governor Bo Sha took away to raise and now she has become a nation collapsing beauty. The Big Dry Emperor is lacking a concubine and wishes to marry the Deep Blue princess. West Sea City will now have the Big Dry Empire's protection and we can even help West Sea City rebuild the Deep Blue Empire of the past!"

"Impossible!" Bo Sha didn't even think as she rejected it, "This old lady has to reject the Big Dry Emperor's good will, it is impossible for the Deep Blue Empire's princess to marry into the Big Dry Empire. You can give up on this!"

Chapter 576: A be

t

Yuwen Xi seemed like he didn't hear Bo Sha's words.

With a cold snort.

His aura suddenly became even more intense!

Bo Sha seemed to feel a strong pressure as her wrinkled face became more and more ugly, "Yuwen Xi, do you want to tear off face with West Sea City's domain?"

"I just want to remind your excellency Bo Sha that your body's situation is getting worse and worse." Yuwen Xi slowly said, "Have you ever thought about it? If you fall, will West Sea City be able to maintain its prosperity? You might as well find a large mountain to back you. The Big Dry Empire can protect West Sea City and the Merpeople living within. Other than this marriage, you have no other choice."

Bo Sha's expression was ice cold, "You want to take away the bloodline of the Deep Blue Empire and take West Sea City without any effort, does the Big Dry Empire not feel he is going overboard? Even if West Sea City can't resist the Big Dry Empire, with the Big Dry Empire's distance and my Sea Race's advantages, it will not be easy for the Big Dry Empire to occupy West Sea City!"

As these words fell.

Several dozen Merpeople guards came forward with weapons, these guards were already outside prepared to fight. Yuwen Xi was a Heaven Domain Expert, but he was in someone else's territory. Moreover, there was more than one Heaven Domain Expert in West Sea City and Bo Sha herself was not weak.

Yuwen Xi was not worried at all, rather he gave the same cold snort, "Even if this old man was lying down, do you dare lock me up?"

Too arrogant!

He actually said something like this!

But Yuwen Xi was the Big Dry Empire's Imperial Tutor with a high and powerful position. The top ten in the entire Big Dry Empire could be considered a person known all over the continent!

If they dared catch Yuwen Xi, it would be equal to slapping the Big Dry Empire's face. How many forces on the continent would dare do something like this? West Sea City didn't have this kind of courage!

The Sea Race guards all looked at each other, not daring to move.

Bo Sha's injury was quite serious and if she really fought, it wasn't certain she could beat Yuwen Xi. If Yuwen Xi were to make a move against her at that time, Bo Sha might not be able to retreat. The most important thing was that West Sea City was like Yuwen Xi had said, they might not have the courage to move against the Big Dry Empire's Imperial Tutor!

The guards kept looking at each other and kept silent.

This was a birthday banquet, but now it had completely changed because of Yuwen Xi. However, those merchants and people from the kingdoms, how could they dare interfere with the Big Dry Empire? They could only treat it as if they saw and heard nothing, just sitting there eating and drinking.

Yuwen Xi was very satisfied with the deterring effect he had, therefore his tone became even more forceful, "I might as well be honest with you, the Big Dry Emperor needs a descendant with the Deep Blue Empire's royal bloodline and he is very interested in West Sea City's territory. All of this plays an important role in the Big Dry Empire's plans. The Big Dry Emperor's decree is here, anyone who dares defy it stand out now!"

Yuwen Xi was not prepared to act politely at all.

Actually there was no need to act polite with the Big Dry Empire's strength.

Therefore Yuwen Xi directly displayed his intentions. As long as one's brain was normal, they wouldn't go up against an empire. This was a power that was at the peak of the continent!

"I have an opinion!"

When everyone was silent, there was a voice that suddenly came from the remote regions of the hall. The moment this voice appeared, everyone's eyes was attracted to it.

Spatial fluctuations appeared.

A youth in simple clothes suddenly appeared between Yuwen Xi and Bo Sha. Even with the pressure of two Heaven Domain Experts falling on him, his expression didn't change at all. It was like he wasn't facing two Heaven Domain Experts, but rather two statues.

Innate spatial energy?

Everyone's expression changed.

But compared to the innate powers of this youth, everyone was more shocked by his courage. Does he not know what appearing now meant? This human that looked ordinary actually dared to defy the Big Dry Empire's protecting Sage!

Yuwen Xi narrowed his brows as he released his strong aura, pressing it down on Chu Tian, but he was disappointed. Chu Tian could even face a Titan or a giant dragon without flinching, there was no need to mention this old man.

"Who are you?" Yuwen Xi looked over Chu Tian a few times. To be able to act this normally, this youth was probably not a normal person, "There are some things that a nameless brat like you can interfere in!"

"This one is Miracle City's City Lord, Chu Tian and a special envoy of the Forest Alliance. I specially came to West Sea City to discuss a matter of cooperation." Chu Tian gave a simple introduction which created a faint glow in Bo Sha's eyes. Chu Tian firmly took a two steps forward, "West Sea City is a part of the Forest of Chaos geographically, therefore it is already a part of the Forest of Chaos. I don't care about any Big Dry Empire or any Sages, anyone that dares order around West Sea City has to go through the Forest Alliance. Do you think this is related to me or not?"

"Wild brat, not knowing the depths of heaven and earth!" Yuwen Xi's face sunk, "I am only a few feet away from you, it's as easy as flipping my hand for this old man to kill you!"

"Is that so? Perhaps!" Chu Tian's tone changed, "But City Lord Bo Sha won't let you!"

Bo Sha was stunned.

Is this brat's brain not normal, why was he certain that West Sea City would protect him? Since he was someone from Miracle City, he must know that hundreds of thousands of Sea Race elites have already infiltrated the Forest of Chaos, otherwise why would he come here? Since he knew this, he should know that Miracle City couldn't co-exist with West Sea City!

"This is because I can save City Lord Bo Sha!" Chu Tian directly said, "The injury on City Lord Bo Sha isn't incurable!"

With these words said.

Everyone was stunned!

Especially Yuwen Xi and Bo Sha. Yuwen Xi dared to act this arrogant mainly because Bo Sha's lamp was about to extinguish. She could only live at most three-five more years and there was no one in West Sea City capable of taking over! This also made Bo Sha not dare take on a force like the Big Dry Empire!

If Bo Sha could heal her injury, would she need to fear Yuwen Xi?

West Sea City was far from being able to compare to the Big Dry Empire, but West Sea City was far from the Big Dry Empire. Even if the Big Dry Empire was strong, was it that easy to swallow West Sea City?

Yuwen Xi revealed a cold smile after his temporary shock, "Do you know what Bo Sha was injured by? Even this old man does not dare say I can cure it. What thing are you, could it be that this old man can't compare to you?"

This old man was very arrogant!

But he had the qualification to be arrogant.

Yuwen Xi was a Sage, with deep knowledge that normal people couldn't imagine. Something that an empire's Sage couldn't even do, could this bumpkin that crawled out of who knows where accomplish it? This was a giant joke!

"Since sir Sage is this certain, how about we make a bet?" Chu Tian smiled as he looked at Yuwen Xi, "If I can cure City Lord Bo Sha, please scram out of this city."

"Seeking death!"

Yuwen Xi didn't say anything when his followers wanted to attack Chu Tian. Even the Big Dry Emperor was courteous towards Yuwen Xi, what was this fellow acting so arrogantly based on!

Peng!

A gentle wave poured out.

The two followers were pushed to the side.

City Lord Bo Sha gave two coughs before saying, "Since City Lord Chu Tian is full of confidence, why don't we let him give it a try?"

Yuwen Xi didn't believe Chu Tian could heal Bo Sha at all, so he said with a cold laugh, "What if you can't do it?"

"As you wish."

"Good, this old man will let you open my eyes then."

"Old man, open your eyes!" Chu Tian's eyes fell onto West Sea City's City Lord Bo Sha again, "This City Lord rushed over and didn't have time to prepare a gift, so I'll just give a gift to sir City Lord Bo Sha now! If I'm not wrong, City Lord Bo Sha should be affected by a Death Fire Curse and this kind of curse will gradually drain one's life force. This process will keep generating toxins, therefore sir City Lord's body has aged early. You can only keep absorbing demonic beast's inner core's essence to maintain your life force, am I right?"

Yuwen Xi's brows tightly knit.

CIty Lord Bo Sha revealed a look of shock.

Not to mention Yuwen Xi, even City Lord Bo Sha never had any hope at all. They never would have thought that this human could see through everything with just one look.

What Yuwen Xi found strange was that how could Bo Sha's injuries be seen just based on appearances? This didn't fit common sense because there were many reasons why people could age early, so how could he tell that she was cursed?

Actually Chu Tian wasn't a prophet. Chu Tian could make this decision mainly because he met that golden haired beauty yesterday.

Chu Tian had a feeling at that time.

The golden haired beauty was not a human and if his guess wasn't wrong, she was a Mermaid. Based on the aura she had, her bloodline and strength wasn't like that of normal Merpeople, it was likely she was an important person of West Sea City. It could be possible she was the Deep Blue princess that Yuwen Xi wanted to bring back as a concubine for the Big Dry Emperor.

The main effect of the inner core the two of them fought over was recovery.

Like this, it was very likely the girl was buying the inner core for the City Lord, so she didn't hesitate to give that wild price. Seeing Bo Sha's current condition, Chu Tian dared to make this kind of bold guess. Even if it wasn't completely correct, it was still mostly correct!

Chu Tian suddenly revealed a bad smile before clearing his throat to say, "Actually City Lord Bo Sha's injuries are not hard to cure. I found a ten thousand year old Eight Claw Demon's inner core in the market yesterday which would have helped the City Lord greatly, but when I was about to buy it, a hideous and venomous girl used her wealth to steal it from me. Otherwise, I would have had the inner core today and it would have increased the odds of me succeeding in curing you."

Chapter 577: Betting again

West Sea City, the Merpeople Palace.

A slender figure was moving through a giant pool. This figure was full and graceful, as it slowly moved to the edge of the pool and came ashore. The golden hair scattered down, but it couldn't block that mature and attractive body.

This was a beauty that could cause the downfall of a nation, but it was not a human. The top half was no different from that of a human, but the bottom half was that of a fish.

The scales of the Merpeople race was different. Most of them had green, black, or red scales, with a few of them having rare silver scales. This Mermaid beauty had golden scales and each one of them gave off an immortal like glow!

Only those with the bloodline of the Deep Blue Empire could have this colour. Each scale was a dazzling gold colour, showing a powerful bloodline. This Mermaid beauty was clearly a direct descendant of the royal family.

That's right.

She was the Deep Blue Empire's princess.

Although she knew about her background, she didn't know much about the Deep Blue Empire because when she could understand things, the Deep Blue Empire had already collapsed. Although she was a pure blooded royal Mermaid, she did not live the royal life and had been adopted by Bo Sha into West Sea City since she was young.

The Deep Blue Empire was just a legend and the feeling between people was easier to explain.

Towards her birth, her bloodline, and her family's glory, they were already nothing more than momentos of the past. Just living in happiness in West Sea City was already enough.

The only thing weighing on her heart is that when Grandma Bo Sha brought her out of the Deep Blue Empire, she had been heavily injured from the rough experience and she was already a lamp about to extinguish. Now that she was on the verge of death, how could she save Grandma Bo Sha?

The demonic beast's inner core essence could slow this down, but it could not change the current situation!

"Your highness, princess Jin Luo!" A mermaid maid came in, "The City Lord wants you to quickly head over!"

Grandma Bo Sha was actually calling her over? This was not normal!

Jin Luo's status was special. Countless people wanted the bloodline of the Deep Blue Empire, therefore Bo Sha never allowed Jin Luo to appear in any formal events to avoid any troubles or conflicts, especially at an even like today. It's said that an important person from a human empire was here and they were most likely here for her, therefore she couldn't show herself.

Now Grandma Bo Sha was taking the initiative to call her over?

Something must have happened!

"I'll head over now!"

A golden glow surrounded Jin Luo as a layer of energy surrounded her, causing golden hair to fly up. Jin Luo's lower half slowly disappeared as the scales gradually faded, being replaced by two slender, white legs falling to the ground. They were like perfect pieces of art and people couldn't help wanting to protect them when they saw them.

The Merpeople's appearance weren't fixed.

Why were they Merpeople? They were human and also fish!

A true high grade Merperson could freely change between human and fish form. Jin Luo's current appearance was not from a secret technique, but actually changing to a human form, it was a normal body.

Jin Luo finished dressing and came to the main hall with several bodyguards.

Countless people's eyes were attracted over. There were people from West Sea City who did know of this Deep Blue princess' identity, but they rarely saw her. Seeing her now gave them a deeply shocked feeling.

Jin Luo was not used to everyone's attention, especially that one person among the human's giving off a strong pressure and threat.

One could tell without even speaking.

It had to be the Big Dry Empire's Yuwen Xi's group.

Jin Luo was prepared to speak to Bo Sha with slightly knit brows when her eyes suddenly popped open. This was because standing beside Bo Sha was no one else by that despicable human she had met yesterday!

"Why are you here!" Jin Luo felt her teeth ache. It was because of this bastard that she had spent all those source stones yesterday, "I haven't even found you to settle accounts and you appeared here!"

"Jin Luo, don't be rude." Bo Shao softly coughed a few time, "This is Miracle City's City Lord, Chu Tian!"

Jin Luo's face instantly turned white.

Chu Tian?

This was Chu Tian?

Miracle City was famous in the Forest of Chaos, there weren't many people who didn't know of Miracle City's existence. This city was as miraculous as its name, rising in just a short year and becoming important enough to influence the entire forest.

Chu Tian revealed a faint smile seeing Jin Luo because as he had expected, it was this girl. Chu Tian's smile faded and he gave a few soft coughs, "Your majesty, princess Jin Luo, I never thought that I would meet you again in this situation. I won't say anything unnecessary, take out that Eight Claw Demon's inner core now!"

"You, you….."

Jin Luo almost exploded with anger at this bastard.

"Jin Luo, give it to him!" City Lord Bo Sha said with a few soft coughs, "City Lord Chu Tian says that he can cure my injuries. A trivial Eight Claw Demon's inner core is not worth mentioning for my West Sea City!"

The anger on Jin Luo's face faded a bit, but now there was a deeply suspicious expression, "Just based on you? I think you are speaking nonsense!"

"Your highness, your words aren't correct. We are standing on a tightrope right now." Chu Tian said these words before revealing a smile that didn't look anxious at all, "Do you see that sir Sage over there? He was sent by the Big Dry Empire to steal you back as his emperor's little concubine!"

Jin Luo's expression fell, "What?"

"City Lord Bo Sha is heavily injured, she might not have the strength to protect you. But you don't need to worry since I have a bet with this Sage. As long as I cure Bo Sha's injuries, that Sage will immediately scram. I believe in this Sage's identity, he shouldn't go back on his words!" Chu Tian looked at Jin Luo before continuing, "I am even putting my life up as a mortgage, shouldn't you be thanking me?"

Jin Luo was stunned for a while, looking at Yuwen Xi before looking at Bo Sha. Judging on their expressions and reactions, was this really what was happening?

Chu Tian was not related to her, why would he come here to take this risk?

Jin Luo had no choice but to give the Eight Claw Demon inner core to Chu Tian.

"That's a good girl."

Chu Tian inspected the inner core in his palm and gave a satisfied nod before giving it to the little fox on his shoulder. The little fox sucked took a bit of the inner core and bit off a large part of it. Everyone was stunned by this, this fellow was truly crazy. He spent quite a bit of bit of effort and finally got this inner core, but he casually fed it to his pet.

Jin Luo felt like she had been tricked, "Bastard! You are a liar!"

Everyone had a feeling of being played. Yuwen Xi had a cold smile as he began to expect what kind of ending this fellow would have.

"I'm sorry, yesterday's matter was still in my chest and I was feeling very dissatisfied. Now that it has disappeared, I can work much more effectively, so I didn't trick you." Chu Tian waved his hand and said, "Let's start!"

Chu Tian reported a long list of materials.

These materials were precious, but not very rare, so West Sea City could bring out most of them and this was already enough. Chu Tian casually pulled out a pill furnace and threw the materials inside, immediately beginning to refine the pills.

Yuwen Xi couldn't help taunting him as he saw this, "If City Lord Bo Sha's injuries could be this easily healed, perhaps it wouldn't be the turn of a nameless person like you to make a move."

"Don't say things too early." Chu Tian refined the pill while saying, "The main road is simple. There are times when complicated problems can easily be solved with the most simple method."

Qi!

Chu Tian suddenly opened the pill furnace and threw in another two things. One was a little branch and the other was a crystal bone. After the two things entered the furnace, he started refining again.

A powerful life energy bursted out of the cauldron.

Yuwen Xi's eyes became serious. He didn't know what Chu Tian had just put in, but he could tell without thinking that those two materials were not normal.

After another quarter of an hour.

Chu Tian's pill refining was finally over. A golden pill covered in green stripes finally appeared in front of their eyes. This pill did not just contain a powerful life energy, it was also holding a very strange energy.

"City Lord, please take the pill!"

Everyone was stunned.

Was this fellow joking!

City Lord Bo Sha's injuries did not just last a day or two, they had been there for a hundred years. Over these hundred years, her life had been speeding by at three-four times the normal speed. It was because of this that she who could live to a thousand was already this old when only turning five hundred.

This loss of vitality was permanent and anything below the Immortal Grade couldn't reverse that.

Not to mention that Bo Sha had a curse corroding her body, so even the most powerful Immortal Herb would have no use. Chu Tian's materials were precious, but most of them were rather easily obtained Sacred Herbs, so it couldn't change Bo Sha's situation no matter what!

Yuwen suddenly found it very funny seeing this.

He had actually made a bet with an idiot!

This was simply the biggest stain on his life as a Sage!

Jin Luo also stared at him. Although she didn't believe in the beginning, after hearing that Chu Tian was the Miracle City City Lord, she still had a trace of hope. This person could create a miracle like Miracle City in the Forest of Chaos, perhaps he would be able to create a miracle here.

Who would have thought that Chu Tian would create joke like this.

Using ordinary material, he made a pill in a short period of time. How could this cure Grandma Bo Sha's hundred year injury?

"Is City Lord Chu Tian playing a joke on this old lady?" Bo Sha's eyes became a bit cold, "It's only possible if everyone here is a fool!"

Chu Tian was filled with confidence as he crossed his arms across his chest, "If City Lord Bo Sha does not believe Chu Tian, how about we make a bet?"

"What bet?"

"If this pill is of no use, I'll give Miracle City to you." Chu Tian said this and Bo Sha's brows slightly jumped. Although she was not an inner part of the Forest of Chaos, she knew what value Miracle City had. Chu Tian then said, "If the pill is effective, I don't want your West Sea City. I just want you to immediately pull out the troops in the Forest of Chaos and have West Sea City join the Forest Alliance. What do you think?"

Chapter 578: Lobbying

In the Forest of Chaos, there were at least several hundred thousand Sea Race elites, this was definitely a power that could not be ignored. The Forest Alliance was busy fighting the spirit insects in the Subterranean World, so this army that could attack at any moment was large threat to them. It could create quite a bit of loss for the Forest Alliance.

Chu Tian's main purpose in coming to West Sea City was to convince the West Sea City's City Lord to call back their troops.

Bo Sha of course knew Chu Tian's goal and was very shocked by Chu Tian's boldness. This youth dared to come to West Sea City alone and even dared to gamble with Bo Sha using Miracle City. This was not just a strong confidence in oneself, this was simply being assured in one's victory.

"City Lord Chu Tian has this kind of courage, this old lady will bet with you."

"I ask City Lord Bo Sha to take the pill!"

Bo Sha didn't waste words as she looked over the pill, taking several glances. Although she didn't know what effect this pill had, the process of refining the pill was impeccable. Just based on this, it could be said that Chu Tian was a master alchemist!

Chu Tian saw Bo Sha looking over the pill and said with a smile, "City Lord does not need to worry, I wouldn't dare poison you!"

Chu Tian was not a fool.

If Bo Sha was killed.

Wouldn't West Sea City and the millions of Sea Race soldiers charge into the Forest of Chaos?

Bo Sha immediately felt a strange energy fill every corner of her body after taking the pill and suddenly there was a feeling like spring sunshine falling on the snow. That curse energy that were like maggots eating her bones was actually dissipating at an incredible speed with the help of this energy.

When this curse energy dissipated, a powerful vital energy filled her body and the vitality that was quickly drained actually began to slowly come back. All of this occurred naturally without any twists and turns, it was simply immediate effects.

Everyone was stunned to see that Bo Sha's old face began to regain its vitality. The old withered face which was like dried land was currently regaining its vitality and elasticity!

A miracle!

This was simply a miracle!

"This...This is impossible!"

Yuwen Xi did not dare believe his eyes!

Chu Tian had casually refined a pill and it was actually effective. Not only was it effective, it was actually showing instant effects. Other than the legendary Divine Pills, how could this be possible?

"There is nothing impossible in this world, sir Sage needs to learn a bit more." Chu Tian said in a taunting voice. Others needed to give Yuwen Xi face, but he didn't care about this old man, "Since I have given this effective gift to City Lord Bo Sha, then that means I win this bet. Sir Sage should keep his promise."

Yuwen Xi was filled with rage, "Nameless brat, daring to be this….."

"You have to accept your lose if you make a bet!" Jin Luo excitedly shouted out, "All of us are witnesses!"

Bo Sha suppressed the wild joy in her heart. She already had enough confidence now, "If Imperial Tutor Yuwen breaks a promise, perhaps it will bring shame to your name as a Sage!"

What could Yuwen Xi do now?

Once Bo Sha's injuries were healed, the threat he had would be greatly diminished. West Sea City could still be led by Bo Sha for another few decades and was a West Sea City led by Bo Sha easy to invade?

The threat and pressure the Big Dry Empire had on West Sea City would be greatly weakened.

They never thought that this brat would be able to do all this. If they knew earlier, they would have directly made a move and wouldn't have let all this trouble appear!

"Good, good, good, truly a heroic youth." Yuwen Xi knew that he couldn't take advantage of West Sea City, so he gave a cold snort and left with a flip of his sleeve, "This old man congratulates City Lord Bo Sha on healing your body. We still have other matters, so we'll be leaving first!"

"Go slow and I won't send you off!"

Yuwen Xi knew that staying here would be bringing shame on himself, therefore he brought his followers away and left the city. This respected empire's Sage was actually embarrassed by Chu Tian?!

Everyone revealed a look of disbelief!

Everyone looked at Chu Tian with eyes that seemed frantic.

Something that a Sage couldn't do was actually easily solved by him. Could it be that this youth was even more powerful than a Sage? Of course, in terms of knowledge, even ten Yuwen Xi added together couldn't compare to Chu Tian. Chu Tian actually had several ways to cure Bo Sha, but he still used the most convenient method.

When refining the pill, he added two things. One was a branch from the Tree of Life and the other was the essence of a Divine Bone. The Divine Bone essence could break the curse power and the Tree of Life Branch could supplement the overdrawn vital energy.

It was because of this that these immediate effects had appeared.

This was a very shocking pleasant surprise for Bo Sha!

She could only on for another two-three years. Bo Sha wanted to use this time to gather large amounts of material, not hesitating at any cost to train Jin Luo, so that she would have enough strength to sit in the City Lord position after she had died.

This was the main reason West Sea City had attacked the Forest of Chaos.

This was because the Subterranean World had promised Bo Sha that the Subterranean World would distract the Forest Alliance's main forces, allowing the Sea Race to attack and all the loot would belong to West Sea City, with the Subterranean World not taking a bit of it. West Sea City of course had no reason to not accept such a beneficial matter for them.

Chu Tian had appeared.

And everything had completely changed.

City Lord Bo Sha ended the banquet ahead of time and she brought Chu Tian to a meeting hall. From now on, the two of them would discuss with their statuses as City Lords.

"I'll keep this short."

Chu Tian sat in a comfortable position and while holding a cup of tea, he spoke in a very casual voice.

"I hope West Sea City can join the Forest Alliance. I believe that as long as West Sea City joins the alliance, every small and large city on the Western Sea coast will also join the alliance. At that time, the Forest Alliance will include the five large powers of the Eternal Forest, the Savage Highlands, the Giant Mountain Range, the Dragon's Ridge, and West Sea City. Adding in the riches of the surrounding kingdoms and the Purgatory World, even the Big Dry Empire will be apprehensive!"

City Lord Bo Sha was not in a rush to make a decision, "West Sea City has always been freely managed and never restrained. Adding in the fact that we are sea races, entering an alliance filled with forest races, it wouldn't be too proper!"

Chu Tian said, "The Forest Alliance may give you some restraints, but it will also bring many benefits. This kind of restrictions are not worth mention and City Lord Bo Sha's worries are even less worth mentioning. The Forest Alliance is not afraid of making things complicated, rather we're afraid it won't be complicated enough. West Sea City will be the first Sea Race power joining us, so I believe you'll have quite the favourable position."

City Lord Bo Sha softly said, "Words aren't binding."

Chu Tian knew that it wasn't easy to convince this fellow. Unless he really took out some benefits to move her, West Sea City didn't have a reason to join the Forest Alliance. West Sea City wasn't weak to begin with, being the remnant of the Deep Blue Empire. They had a strong enough sea race army that could cause quite a bit of trouble for the Forest Alliance.

"City Lord Bo Sha still has doubts?" Chu Tian suddenly changed the topic, "Do you know why I dared to come to West Sea City and even dared to not avoid Yuwen Xi?"

Bo Sha said, "I wish to know the reason."

"Because of this!" Chu Tian placed a scroll on the table, "This is Miracle Commerce's unique invention, the Transport Scroll. If I met any trouble that I couldn't solve, I could be teleported back as long as I broke the scroll. No matter how many soldiers West Sea City has, no matter how strong Yuwen Xi was, I wasn't worried at least in terms of being able to escape."

There was actually something like this?

Bo Sha revealed a shocked expression.

Chu Tian's next words made Bo Sha even more shocked, "I won't hide it from you, not only in Miracle City, there are several dozen Transport Towers in the forest, at least covering the areas governed by the four powers. This also means that using these Transport Towers, we can freely move between each other."

Bo Sha fell into deep thought.

"The Transport Tower is just the tip of the iceberg for the Forest Alliance. With the technology we provide, the four powers will wildly expand in a short period of time. Even outside the forest, even in the underground Purgatory World, we have territory there! This is also the reason why the Subterranean World is so hostile towards us."

Chu Tian said this and he suddenly changed the topic.

"The four giants are suddenly progressing and only West Sea City is still the same. What will City Lord Bo Sha take out to compete with the Elven King, the Dragon Lord, and the rest of them? Perhaps the forest will be united in a year and West Sea City will get no part of the benefits. Will City Lord Bo Sha really be willing to see this happen?"

Bo Sha fell into deep thought again.

Chu Tian felt that he had already said enough, so he stood up and pulled out several things, "This is the development progress of the four powers and the situation of the Forest Alliance, I hope City Lord Bo Sha can give me a quick response. That is all I have to say, I'll be leaving first!"

Chu Tian said this before he really turned to leave.

These things recorded Miracle City's potential and the changes with the four giants. The building of factories, the opening of banks, it was all very dazzling and shocking.

The Eternal Forest who had cooperated longest with Miracle City was a model for all.

The Eternal Forest had already created many new occupations like matrix coding programmers and etc. This will definitely give the elves a place in the next era.

Bo Sha only needed to use a bit of her brain to understand the benefits gained from this. As long as Bo Sha was a normal person, she wouldn't be able to resist this kind of temptation!

Chapter 579: Forced marriage

This was a large stack of information.

This was all compiled by the young miss because the information contained within were very important. Bo Sha picked out a few things from the information on the Forest Alliance to personally look over, such as Miracle Commerce's history, their growth, and etc. She gave all of these to Jin Luo to look over.

Jin Luo had obtained some Miracle City products from some of the forest merchants, she also had a radio and video disk player inside her room which were the things she loved the most. Therefore Jin Luo was very interested in Miracle City. Only Miracle City had risen too quickly and the forest races didn't know how Miracle City developed so fast, so this has always been an unsolved mystery in the Forest of Chaos.

This information was all top secret information!

Jin Luo had a wonderful chance to learn about Miracle City.

It had to be known, Meng Qingwu was very careful and dedicated in doing things, so this information was naturally very compact, not missing a thing or having any lies. Miracle Commerce's development and the creation of the Forest Alliance, Jin Luo could find it all inside these papers and spent an entire night looking over them.

Every technological breakthrough, every invention, and every ground breaking step Miracle City took was all clearly written inside this information.

Jin Luo read over Miracle Commerce's development and it was like reading Chu Tian's biography. This was because every breakthrough Miracle Commerce had was all related to Chu Tian or directly provided by Chu Tian.

Was the wisdom in this human's brain inexhaustible? Otherwise, how could all these things be explained?

After Jin Luo finished reading this information with a chest filled with excitement, the sky was already lit up. Bo Sha came into Jin Luo's room, "What do you think?"

"I think Miracle Commerce isn't aiming to create a business empire, rather they are planning to completely change the world. As for how much potential they have, it surpasses the expectation." Jin Luo said with an expectant look, "It is still blank on the side of the Sea Race. If we can take this step before the other Sea Races, we'll have bright prospects for the future. I think we should take this cooperation!"

Bo Sha nodded.

Jin Luo's words weren't wrong.

She had seen the Forest Alliance's current situation and structure. The although the alliance was a whole, they left space for each other. Each member was bound by the highest laws of the alliance, but they also followed the local customs, which was quite open minded.

If West Sea City joined the Forest Alliance, would they still fear the Big Dry Empire?

Bo Sha thought about it for a few minutes before saying, "Princess, this old lady has an idea. I wonder, what do you feel about it?"

Jin Luo was a bit stunned, "What idea does Grandma Bo Sha have?"

Bo Sha said a few words to Jin Luo and Jin Luo's face instantly turned red. She never thought Bo Sha would come up with this kind of idea and found herself at a loss.

"First ask City Lord Chu Tian into the palace."

Several guards left to follow this order.

...

After an hour, when Chu Tian arrived at the Merpeople Palace, Bo Sha place five trays in front of him. There was a spirit insect head in each of the tray, with each one still being fresh, having been just killed.

Chu Tian was a bit surprised, "This is?"

"These are the liaisons and secret agents the Subterranean World had placed in West Sea City."

Bo Sha had killed all the people from the Subterranean World, showing her position. Whether they joined the Forest Alliance or not, West Sea City had already cut off their relation with the Subterranean World. This was what Chu Tian wanted to see, so Chu Tian's main goal had been accomplished.

Chu Tian let out a sigh of relief, "City Lord Bo Sha has made the right decision."

The treatment of Bo Sha showed its greatest effect now. Over 80% of the wrinkles on Bo Sha's face had disappeared and her skin was elastic once again. Her old body was once again filled with vitality and her greying hair was now dark black.

Of course, because she had been too seriously injured, City Lord Bo Sha couldn't return to her youthful appearance. However compared to her old appearance that was on the verge of death, Bo Sha could now be considered a middle aged person and there was no comparison between the two.

Jin Luo didn't appear beside Bo Sha and was listening in a side hall.

After Jin Luo learned of Chu Tian's identity and his accomplishments, she was already filled with admiration for this human. Only, the idea Grandma Bo Sha had, it was too hard for her to accept and she could only hide in the side hall to watch.

How many more miracles could Miracle City create? How much potential did Miracle City have?

If West Sea City joined the Forest Alliance, they would definitely gain many benefits.

"These heads are repayment for you curing my injuries and West Sea City will pledge not to attack the Forest Alliance." City Lord Bo Sha slowly said, "As for the matter of West Sea City joining the Forest Alliance, we have already considered it. West Sea City can join the Forest Alliance, but City Lord needs to fulfil one of our conditions!"

A condition for joining?

It was most likely no problem.

He came to West Sea City this time to have West Sea City recall their troops, but now he had even convinced West Sea City to join the Forest Alliance, so it could be considered accidental harvest!

What condition did City Lord Bo Sha have? West Sea City was just trying to gain more benefits for themselves, so Chu Tian was confident he could negotiate over this. West Sea City joining the alliance was important and with West Sea City joining the alliance, the Forest Alliance would become even more stable!

Chu Tian didn't even think as he directly said, "Please speak your mind, City Lord Bo Sha."

"City Lord Chu Tian is young and promising, having knowledge that can match a Great Sage, so you will certainly have boundless prospects in the future." City Lord Bo Sha first flattered Chu Tian before revealing her true intentions, "Jin Luo is the pure blooded princess of the Deep Blue Empire and is already an adult. The Merpeople Race is waning and no one can compare to her, so why not match her with City Lord Chu Tian? On one hand it would be a good match and on the other hand, it would strengthen the relationship between West Sea City and the alliance!"

"What?!"

Chu Tian thought that Bo Sha would fight for benefits for West Sea City, but he never would have dreamed that she would come up with this kind of condition. If Chu Tian married the Mermaid Princess of West Sea City, he would be chopped into eighteen pieces by Meng Yingying and Meng Qingwu when he went back to Miracle City!

"No, no!" Chu Tian quickly shook his head and rejected this, "Forgive my rudeness, but I am a traditional human and don't like being together with other races, especially sea races. So, I cannot accept this request."

City Lord Bo Sha's face turned serious, "Jin Luo is the Deep Blue Empire's princess, how is she not worthy of you?"

Chu Tian stayed firm, "To be honest, I already have a fiancee, so I'm afraid I can't comply!"

"Sir City Lord is an outstanding individual, as long as you take Princess Jin Luo as the main wife, it's acceptable to take a few concubines." Bo Sha coldly said, "West Sea City's good intentions and the honour and pride of the Deep Blue princess cannot be rejected or shamed. If City Lord does not accept, this old lady cannot agree to joining the alliance."

Damn, you're actually forcing me?

What father hates most is being forced by others.

Chu Tian's temper suddenly came out, "This City Lord will marry who I want to marry, my wife and concubines aren't arranged by others! If City Lord Bo Sha insists on forcing me, we have nothing else to discuss! Goodbye!"

He had already accomplished his goal.

Bo Sha killed the Subterranean people which basically announced the Subterranean World they had cut off relations. As for joining the alliance, that was not an urgent matter.

Chu Tian took out a Transfer Scroll and prepared to leave.

At this time, Bo Sha's long staff coldly hit the ground and vast waves came out around her. Chu Tian had just taken out the scroll when he felt a giant wave sweep towards him. The scroll was instantly taken away and it fell into City Lord Bo Sha's hands.

Chu Tian was already a bit annoyed, "Does City Lord Bo Sha have to do this?"

"If City Lord Chu Tian cannot agree to West Sea City's conditions, we can only ask City Lord Chu Tian to remain in West Sea City for a few days to think it over." Bo Sha didn't say anything else, "Someone, bring City Lord Chu Tian away and let him calm down."

Chu Tian's cultivation had already been suppressed by Bo Sha. After all, Bo Sha was a 6th Heaven Domain Layer Expert and with such a large gap in strength, Chu Tian couldn't resist at all. Therefore, his scroll had been taken away and under the supervision of several top sea race experts, he was locked up in a room.

City Lord Bo Sha's meaning was clear.

Want to leave? Then get married! Otherwise stay in West Sea City for the rest of your life!

Chu Tian had thought of many scenarios when coming to West Sea City, but he never would have thought of this situation. He couldn't help thinking, could it be that he was just too handsome?

The Mermaid Princess was indeed a beauty that could collapse a nation.

This forced marriage was a method Chu Tian couldn't accept. Moreover, Bo Sha was in a rush to marry Jin Luo to him because one, she liked Chu Tian and Miracle City's potential and two, she wanted to protect against the Big Dry Empire. This kind of wedding was not pure, not to mention Meng Yingying was waiting to marry him, so Chu Tian wouldn't have accepted this even without Meng Yingying.

There was no one that could force Chu Tian into doing something he didn't want to do.

Chu Tian had been placed under house arrest for two days when he made his plan to escape. Although his cultivation had been sealed by energy inside his body, if he really wanted to make a move, he could fight against any expert under the Heaven Domain Realm. He could send out the little fox to first steal the Transport Scroll and then return to Miracle City.

When Chu Tian was about to start his plan.

A golden haired slender finger opened the door and walked in. She had a beautiful appearance that could even induce the collapse of a nation, it was Jin Luo. She looked at Chu Tian with eyes filled with a trace of anger before saying, "Here is the scroll, I secretly took it from Grandma Bo Sha!"

Jin Luo took out a scroll.

Chu Tian was a bit stunned, "This is?"

"You think I want to marry you?" Jin Luo glared at Chu Tian, "But I have taken away Grandma Bo Sha's scroll, so I need to hide in Miracle City for a bit. You won't reject me, right?"

"Ha, ha, no problem, no problem. I have several scrolls anyway!"

"Then we're leaving!"

There was a flash of light before they were sent off. Several guards noticed the two of them disappear and immediately went off to report to City Lord Bo Sha. Bo Sha just softly said "understood" and didn't care about this matter.
