Chapter 280
Chapter 280 – Demon Lord, a Golden Lion
Hearing this, Jiang Chen and Han Yan exchanged glances.
“No wonder that the master of the Blissful Manor can occupy such a prominent island in the ocean; he’s actually a demon lord of the ocean!”
Han Yan finally understood.
“The Blissful Manor holds a major trade fair each year, it’s a massive event. Many great warriors from different powers in the continent will participate. Also, many rogue cultivators and demon lords of the ocean will come to the event as well, mainly because a trade fair like this is really rare. A lot of rare and unique treasures can be found. A lot of those treasures found in the trade fair were originally found in the ocean, and similar items can rarely be found in the continent.”
“That’s right. Everyone is taking what they need, and trading for treasures that they need. Who wouldn’t want to participate in a trade fair like this and try their luck? Also, there will be many Combat Soul warriors in the event as well.”
“Of course, even big powers like the Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect will send someone over, and there might even be someone from the Martial Palace and Martial Saint Dynasty. I heard that everyone who wants to enter the Blissful Island and participate in the trade fair will have to pay a certain fee. Putting aside everything, just the fee alone is a huge amount of wealth for the owner.”
“Sigh… this really makes me envious!”
Han Yan pulled away his palm. In an instant, the warrior felt like he was going to collapse. Cold sweat covered his forehead. Although only a few seconds had passed, it felt like it was a few years for the man. The aura leaking from the young man’s body caused his soul to tremble.
“I suppose you two young masters are here for the first time? If that is the case, it makes perfect sense that you don’t know about the Blissful Island’s rules. The island will only open for the public when the trade fair starts, and before that, no one is allowed to step onto the island. The trade fair starts in three days, and those who arrived early will have to wait.”
Someone explained the rules of the Blissful Island to Jiang Chen and Han Yan with a smile on his face. He didn’t dare leave anything out.
“I see.”
Jiang Chen nodded his head. If that was the case, he would just wait here like the others. He was here to participate in the trade fair, so he didn’t want to get too much attention.
Swoosh… swoosh… swoosh…
During the next days, more and more people arrived. Regardless of where they came from, none of them dared break the rules set down for the Blissful Island. Before the trade fair started, no on would step onto the island.
Bang!
All of a sudden, a loud explosive sound could be heard from behind. A figure appeared in the sky above like a sudden clap of thunder. When everyone threw their gaze at source of the lightning like sound, they could see that it was actually a quite majestic figure.
This man looked to be in his forties, and he had a majestic 2.5 meter tall body, and his golden hair made him look somewhat ferocious. A golden armor covered his majestic body, and it glowed brightly under the sunlight.
What was even more shocking was the man’s cultivation, he was a Combat Soul warrior!”
“That’s Golden Lion, a demon lord! I never expected to see him here.”
“This Golden Lion is the overlord of the Golden Lion Mountain in the Liang Province, he isn’t a human, but a rare lion demon. He has a mighty cultivation base, and no one dares challenge him. Even those powerful sects in the Liang Province have to show him some respect.”
“The Blissful Island’s trade fair is too attractive, even a Combat Soul warrior was attracted. I’m sure the Golden Lion isn’t the only Combat Soul warrior here, those big sects in the Eastern Continent will definitely send their Combat Soul warriors here as well. Some powerful rogue cultivators might emerged as well.”
…………
Everyone were discussing amongst themselves. They were actually whispering to each other, because they were scared that if they spoke too loud, they might offend the Combat Soul demon lord in some way. A Combat Soul demon lord was not someone they could afford to offend.
The Golden Lion’s appearance was imposing, he didn’t even look at the crowd; he just walked toward the Blissful Island.
“This Golden Lion is so arrogant! How dare he ignore the Blissful Island’s rules? The trade fair starts in only two days, but now he’s actually entering the island.”
A man from the crowd said.
“Hmph!”
Right after the man finished speaking, the Golden Lion coldly harrumphed. Without even turning his head, the Golden Lion casually stretched out its hands and grabbed the warrior like it was grabbing a chicken. No matter how much the warrior struggled, he just couldn’t escape the Golden Lion’s grasp.
“No rules applies to me, the Golden Lion!
The Golden Lion was extremely ruthless. Without any hesitation, he killed the warrior and dumped the body into the ocean. After that, he continued walking toward the island.
“What an unfortunate man. If he didn’t know the rules of the Blissful Island, why didn’t he just keep his mouth shut? A Combat Soul demon lord is extremely brutal, his life was wasted by offending him.”
“Right! The waiting rule does not apply to Combat Soul warriors, they can enter the Blissful Manor whenever they want. Not only that, the master of the manor will personally greet them. We just can’t compare ourselves to them.”
Many people shook their heads and let out sighs. The death of the warrior was not considered a fair one. A Combat Soul demon lord’s approach was extremely ruthless, and none should challenge their dignity.
