Chapter 1538: Chapter 461 Battle Rose_2

"That’s you being turned into a puppet and scaring yourself first. Just look at yourself earlier."

"If you were turned into a puppet, wouldn’t you be afraid? As they say, serving a king is like serving Taige. That’s an ancient saying from our hometown!"

"You’ll find out one day whether I’m afraid or not," Liu Zhenshock said with a smirk.

"Bold! But you can rest assured, even the esteemed emperor wouldn’t have the guts to insult a Heavenly King. That would go against ancestral traditions," Stockton laughed heartily.

Liu Zhenshock also laughed, but his was a cold one.

Once all the palace concubines and the Six-winged Heavenly King left, the entire secluded courtyard suddenly became eerily quiet.

The main hall of the courtyard had side chambers on both ends separated by gauzy curtains—on the left was a fishing platform, on the right was the bedroom.

The design ingeniously allowed cool breezes to pass through the bedroom at all times, keeping it refreshing and pleasant.

Liu Zhenshock lay on the floor couch, pressed against a blanket made of plant fibers, with the lingering scent of a woman’s fragrance seeping up from the fabric. It was rather comfortable.

Today felt like escaping through a gate to hell. As for the next move, Liu Zhenshock thought he should start calculating and strategizing.

This time wasn’t like going solo into Kalimantan; there wasn’t a clear target. It was more like a behind-enemy-lines tactical team with the mindset of causing as much destruction as possible. After days of wandering around, he’d managed to identify several key points.

The "Noah-Kibone Linked Treasure Box," a gem of a thing, was already being applied to civilian use by the Demon Clan. On the Aegean Continent, this would be unthinkable! Since the price wasn’t high, it wouldn’t hurt to acquire a mass amount, even just two or three hundred sets, purely for military use.

The sharpness of the Osteo Staff was also incredible. Compared to a Magic Crystal, its drawback was not being able to seal a magic spell like an Ultra-Order Magic Crystal could, but its advantage was releasing ready-made magic from mutated Arcane Beasts. It was necessary to equip the Summer Palace’s Magic Protectors and future Summer Palace priests with plenty of them.

There were so many crystals in the Demon World, and some types Liu Zhenshock hadn’t even heard of, such as Puppet Crystals and Spiritual Thread Code Crystals. He wondered if there was a Kagaride Gem among them. If he could acquire one, wouldn’t that be hitting the jackpot?

These three items were what Liu Zhenshock could think of as immediate priorities. As for other goals, they’d be simply to kill more members of the Demon Clan. But achieving this goal, no matter how extensively, would be relatively insignificant. Even if all high-ranking members of the Demon Clan were eradicated, given their population size, new high-ranking members would inevitably emerge.

Invading the Aegean required an enormous number of troops rather than a handful of accomplished experts.

Master Puskas’s soul had been detained—something Liu Zhenshock hadn’t anticipated.

The Demon Clan’s necromancy was indeed strong; it could preserve the souls of corpses, a feat far beyond the Sirens, who could only transfer living souls. This was leagues ahead!

Since the Demon Clan had the means to transfer one of Master Puskas’s spells to him, Liu Zhenshock eagerly anticipated the moment when he could hurl that spell directly at the Demon Clan!

Thinking about Master Puskas made Liu Zhenshock’s chest ache intensely.

Without realizing it, he was tearing at the blanket beneath him, scattering a pile of fluff in front of him.

A pair of gentle, small hands suddenly covered Liu Zhenshock’s tear-brimmed eyes from behind.

"Avril, my little girl, you finally came back." Liu Zhenshock pulled down those soft, fair hands and scooped Avril into his arms.

As lovers with a miraculous ability for heartfelt induction through dual cultivation, Avril had awakened from her slumber at the very moment Liu Zhenshock felt a significant mental shock. It was precisely because of Liu Zhenshock’s severe emotional turmoil that Avril, through the unique resonance of dual cultivation, broke free from the perpetual soul slumber and rid herself of the chronic malaise of soul sleep!

How challenging it was to shock the Emerald Overlord in this day and age!

Even Liu Zhenshock hadn’t expected that the one to awaken Avril from her soul slumber would turn out to be the Witch King Jia Bao!

It was her transformation into Master Puskas that had deeply shocked Liu Zhenshock!

Without such a profound level of shock, Liu Zhenshock might never encounter a dangerous situation capable of stirring him to the point of awakening Avril’s dormant soul!

Once awakened, Avril needed only to activate her barrier to reach Liu Zhenshock’s side.

The "Starry Sky Gate" of the dual cultivation barrier—its function was, phrased nicely, to ensure two lovers never parted, or phrased bluntly, a typical interdimensional affair-tracker.

When immense joy and sorrow intertwined, one could only imagine Liu Zhenshock’s complex emotions.

"Richard, you’ve grown thinner," Avril tenderly caressed Liu Zhenshock’s face. She noticed a trace of melancholy in Richard’s gaze that had never been there before. This melancholy made Little Ai feel pained.

"That’s because my heart has been longing for you all this time." Liu Zhenshock intended to crack a playful comment but discovered he couldn’t muster a smile.

Avril hugged him tightly.

"Actually, it’s intentional weight loss. I feared entering the ’Starry Sky Gate’ might require chopping off an arm," Elise quipped from the side, breaking the sweet moment in an annoyingly humorous way. Today, the Aegean Flower was adorned in a tight cheongsam with a high slit, her pale, slender thighs exuding infinite temptation.

"Miss Elise, how did you get here?" Liu Zhenshock asked the Aegean Flower behind him with a hint of curiosity.

"When the ’Starry Sky Gate’ opened, I only needed a small trick to follow along! Don’t forget, I’m an Elemental Conductor! The Sif Elves, in their manipulation and application of elemental power, walk an entirely different path than you Mages!" Elise pouted again and said, "As long as the load doesn’t exceed 200 pounds, isn’t that enough?"

"Impressive!" Liu Zhenshock complimented weakly.

"Avril sensed you were in danger. We’d already assembled the Centaurs, ready to help you as soon as you unleashed the Formation. But later, Avril said you were fine—your mood had calmed! As for me, as a Divine Princess, I had to come take a look, didn’t I?" Elise chuckled. "How’s life in the Demon World? With your capabilities, you should be dazzling on every plane you visit!"

"Just got elected as the Left Bank Heavenly King!" Liu Zhenshock spread his hands wide. "Take a look around here; do you know where we are? This is the Witch King’s lair!"

"The Left Bank? I’ve never heard of this Heavenly King title before!" Elise laughed heartily. "I’ve never been to the Demon World before. I’ve always wanted to visit, and what do you know—my first stop is the royal palace."

"This is the royal palace? Ha, seems rather ordinary." Avril still maintained her sharp tongue.

"Right now, the Demon World has three Witch Kings. This is the palace of one of the female Witch Kings," Liu Zhenshock responded with a bitter smile.

Both Little Ai and Elise froze in disbelief.

Slowly, Liu Zhenshock organized his thoughts and recounted everything that had happened since arriving in the Demon World. The development of the Demon World was so astonishing that even Elise, who had once participated in the divine-demonic war, turned pale while listening.

"If that’s the case, then the Demon Clan’s strength is truly remarkable!" Avril said as she played with the Osteo Wand that housed a mutated Demon World leech.

She was a princess of the largest maritime nation, the Seia Empire, and in Liu Zhenshock’s memory, Little Ai had never spoken so favorably of anyone’s strength before.

"Remarkable doesn’t even begin to cover it," Elise sighed and shook her head.

"This is for you! A young lady like yourself shouldn’t involve yourself in close combat anymore." Liu Zhenshock pulled the Osteo Wand from Avril’s hands and tossed it to Elise. No matter how you looked at it, Liu Zhenshock felt a bit guilty over teasing the Aegean Flower twice before.

"I’m telling you, you better get me the best Osteo Wand next time!" Avril pouted jealously, grabbed Liu Zhenshock’s ear hard, and then burst into a laugh herself.

"I’ll get you a hundred Osteo Wands!" Liu Zhenshock laughed.

Seeing Avril’s charming little face, Liu Zhenshock suddenly felt an irresistible swell of emotion and immediately said to the Aegean Flower, "Respected Divine Princess, perhaps it’s time for you to retreat into my ring for now? My third evolution is just one step away!"

"Richard!" Avril buried her face in Liu Zhenshock’s arms, punching him feebly with her tiny pink fists.

"Shameless!" Elise blushed furiously and squeezed out two harsh words through gritted teeth.
