novelTalk Between Father and Daughter
| ← Ch.1861 | Ch.1863 → |
The Moon Saintess then stood up and left the Palace after she spoke.
The Spider Princess' eyes grew cold when she saw the Moon Saintess leave, as she said, "Father, can we trust that woman? She is too prideful, she doesn't even care about Father."
The Spider Dynasty Emperor shook his head and said, "My dear daughter, don't talk badly of this woman behind her back. Even the Crimson Fire Emperor himself dares not to offend this Moon Saintess, not to mention our Spider Dynasty. The forces behind her are saints."
The Spider Princess' face changed when she heard the words "saints". Even though she was the Princess of a higher-tier dynasty with great power and status, she was like an ant in front of saints.
If a saint wanted to, they could destroy the entire continent with one palm strike, as their powers were beyond a spirit monarch realm master's imagination.
The Spider Dynasty Emperor lightly smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Moon Saintess has never taken sides. They won't help a force over another; they only sell information and gain profit from it. What she has told us holds no threat, as long as you don't offend her."
The Spider Princess nodded when she heard the Spider Dynasty Emperor. She just felt upset with this Moon Saintess, but with the saints behind the Saintess, she had to suppress her anger, because no one would dare to offend saints.
At this moment, the Spider Princess thought of what the Emperor had told her. There were great complexities to the Crimson Fire Continent, it wasn't what it seemed on the surface, and there were rare powers in every hidden corner, each with great power and background.
For example, Qingfeng met a disgruntled elder in the run-down spiritual treasure shop in the Mystic Sun Realm. Even though the elder released no vital essence energy, he shocked Qingfeng because he was a rare hidden master.
He gave the Sky-Breaking Halberd to Qingfeng for him to train. Now, Qingfeng's Sky-Breaking Halberd had become four million kilos in weight and could shatter space.
The Spider Dynasty Emperor suddenly turned around, as he asked the Spider Princess, "The Moon Saintess said you bothered someone who could help us, who is he?"
The Spider Princess thought for a moment and said, "I've investigated. The youth is called Qingfeng, ranked in the top twenty of the devil rankings. However, he had killed the tenth ranked devil with one punch and has also claimed to have killed the emperors of the Water Yin, Meteorite, and several other middle-tier dynasties."
The Spider Dynasty Emperor frowned as he felt the difficulty. Others might not know of the powers of the Water Yin dynasty, but he knew clearly. They might be a middle-tier dynasty, but the Purple Scorpion Dynasty backed them.
The Purple Scorpion Dynasty was a higher-tier dynasty with great power, no less than the Spider Dynasty, and was also within the Five-Poison City.
The Five-Poison City was three times larger than Lingyun and was separated into the east and west. The Spider Dynasty held the east side, while the Purple Scorpion Dynasty held the west.
If the Purple Scorpion Emperor knew that Qingfeng had killed his cousin, then he would never let go. All of Five-Poison City was under their protection, as one hundred thousand demonic beasts surrounded it from the outside.
Some of those demonic beasts were monarch grade beasts, at the sixth level of the spirit monarch realm, which was not weaker than the Spider Dynasty Emperor.
Even though the Spider Dynasty Emperor was enemies with the Purple Scorpion Emperor, they had entered the Mystic Sun Realm together in search of monarch grade techniques and treasures.
The demonic beasts were their common enemy, but the Spider Dynasty Emperor wondered whether it was worth it to worsen their relationship again for Qingfeng.
The Spider Dynasty Emperor pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you think we should hire Qingfeng? Or give him up to build relations with the Purple Scorpion dynasty?"
The Spider Princess thought for a moment and flashed back to the first time she met Qingfeng. She felt that Qingfeng was incredibly arrogant, with no consideration for higher-tier dynasties.
However, Spider Princess had an odd feeling, that even higher-tier Dynasties might not be Qingfeng's opponents. It was only her gut feeling, but those who haven't met Qingfeng wouldn't know of his power and arrogance.
The Spider Princess sighed and said, "Father, if you let me choose, then I'll hire Qingfeng, and give up the Purple Scorpion dynasty, even if it means becoming the Purple Scorpion dynasty's enemy."
The Spider Dynasty Emperor's eyes filled with oddness. He was surprised to see that his daughter would hold such high expectations for Qingfeng, much higher than the Purple Scorpion dynasty, even though the two were on completely different levels.
The Spider Dynasty Emperor knew his daughter could clearly see through others, as she was able uncover their deepest secrets each time.
The Spider Dynasty Emperor gasped and said, "Then we'll do what you like. Hurry and call upon Qingfeng at any cost. We can't let the Purple Scorpion dynasty get to Qingfeng."
The Spider Princess nodded as she turned to leave the Palace and headed out. Now that she had her father's orders, she felt relieved.
Of course, she failed to tell her father that she only agreed to entrust Qingfeng, and risk relations with the Purple Scorpion dynasty because of what the Moon Saintess said.
The Moon Saintess just said that only Qingfeng could solve the crisis the Five-Poison City was facing.
Even though the Spider Princess despised the Moon Saintess because she was too prideful, after the Spider Princess learned that saints were backing the Saintess, she immediately understood why the Moon Saintess was acting so pridefully.
Even the Moon Saintess valued Qingfeng, so how could the Spider Princess believe otherwise. Of course, she had to follow the Moon Saintess's advice and build good relations with Qingfeng to establish her place.
Qingfeng and the others were now on the fifth floor of the Moon Inn. They were near the window, drinking alcohol, and eating food, as they looked outside at the scenery and the wide crowded streets.
Qingfeng saw several devilish self-cultivators that shocked him. Who knew that there would be so many devilish powers in Five-Poison City.
Qingfeng then turned away as he said to the waiter in black, "Has your Saintess returned?"
Just as the waiter in black prepared to speak, a woman in white entered the room.
This woman in white had an attractive face, with graceful purity, and smooth black hair, shrouding her figure with hints of mysteriousness. As soon as she appeared, she drew in everyone's attention.
The waiter in black's face changed as he hurried over to the woman in white and said, "Saintess you're back."
The Moon Saintess nodded and said, "You can head downstairs, I know there's someone who wants to see me. I'll head over now."
The Moon Saintess headed towards Qingfeng's group as she spoke; with great speed she arrived over to Qingfeng with merely two steps.
