Chapter 499: Chapter 253: Dramatic Outcome

In this eerie sea area, running into acquaintance could also be considered a kind of fate, especially for Caesar, who was trapped here by the Naga Queen and plunged into endless slaughter, unable to even find a way back.

"I had thought that I would be trapped here for life until a sudden turmoil erupted in this sea area, prompting me to come and explore. I thought the Naga Queen might have entered to hunt me down, but to my surprise, it was you, kid." Caesar clapped Lu Hong on the shoulder, his long absence turning into an exceptional fondness toward Lu Hong.

"If I hadn’t seen you today, I would have thought you were killed by the Naga Queen a long time ago." Although he had not advanced to the Third Transition, meeting Caesar made all the difficulties he faced seem solvable, and his mood greatly improved.

"By the way, how did you end up here?" Caesar asked somberly, "Don’t tell me you were also exiled here by the Naga Queen?"

"No, I entered this place through a merging plane below the Red Marsh Sea Area, planning to advance to the Third Transition through trials."

"The Third Transition is not as simple as you think. You may have enough combat experience, but you have never taken the time to consolidate your profession. Having enough Magic Power and combat experience is not enough, understanding your profession is equally important." Caesar began his earnest teaching.

"Yes, yes, I know," Lu Hong cut him off, saying, "You should hurry back with me, I suspect Nathias has entered this plane and is searching for me."

"No rush, there are many mysterious areas in this sea region to explore, perhaps we might uncover more secrets." Exploration had always been something Caesar enjoyed long ago, and this mysterious sea area clearly evoked his desire to explore.

"Stop, you can explore slowly some other time, the Human Race can’t wait." Lu Hong detailed the origin of the Human Race and the events he had experienced in this plane one by one.

After listening, Caesar nodded, "Since the passage into this place is stable, let’s first solve the plight of the Human Race. Once we’ve completely defeated the Sea Tribe, I’ll come back to explore."

With that, he followed Lu Hong back the way they came, crawling out of the underwater cave.

Leaving the seabed, Caesar greedily breathed in the fresh air. A trace of black Demonic Qi flashed through his eyes. Even as cautious as Caesar was, he couldn’t escape the pervasive evil essence after a long stay in the eerie sea.

Lu Hong did not notice anything unusual about Caesar and sped toward the Human Race.

After a two-day journey, they bumped right into Nathias, who was in pursuit.

"Finally caught——" Nathias couldn’t finish his sentence when he saw Caesar standing behind Lu Hong, his hairs instantly standing on end.

With Caesar’s protection, Lu Hong wasn’t worried at all and teased, "What did you say?"

"How are you here?!" Nathias was startled. The Queen had told him that the Human Race’s Caesar had been imprisoned in another world, so why was he here with Lu Hong?

"If you don’t want to die, scram!" Caesar coldly said, not intending to answer at all.

Seeing that Caesar had no intention of killing, Nathias breathed a sigh of relief, and without another word, chose to escape immediately.

"Wait!" Lu Hong called out to him, "Let my friend go."

Black Teeth hastily dropped Tong Ling and chased after Nathias.

Goldfish examined the two men with interest for a while before leisurely walking away.

"They killed so many people!" Tong Ling threw himself at Lu Hong’s side like a child, sobbing heavily, "They took my children hostage, I had no choice but to bring them to you."

"It’s okay, it’s okay." Lu Hong patted Tong Ling on the shoulder to comfort him, "It’s my fault for coming back late, blame me."

Caesar remained silent, standing beside Lu Hong, contemplating the departing Goldfish.

With his unique perspective from years of life, Caesar could tell that Goldfish wasn’t panicking in front of him, seemingly not frightened at all. When he fought with the Naga Queen, almost all of the Sea Tribe held absolute fear towards him, making Goldfish’s reaction very strange.

A young calf not fearing a tiger?

Caesar didn’t believe it. A Goldfish capable of being a Third Transition Peak powerhouse couldn’t just be a naive youngster.

Moreover, Caesar sensed a mysterious power on Goldfish, ethereal yet immensely real.

"Could it be... a Sea God incarnation?!" Caesar thought of an extreme possibility, but he wasn’t sure, or perhaps, taking a step back, was Goldfish a successor of the Sea God? This explanation seemed more convincing.

After comforting Tong Ling from his crying, Lu Hong felt for the first time that men were also difficult to serve.

"Who is by your side?"

"He is Caesar, known as the emperor for all ages. Nathias left because he was afraid of him."

"It’s an honor to meet you, Lord Caesar!" Tong Ling stood up straight and respectfully bowed to Caesar.

Caesar returned the courtesy and said with a smile, "Young child, do you ever wonder why I didn’t kill them?"

"I wouldn’t dare!" Although he said this, Tong Ling indeed thought so in his heart.

"Hehe." Caesar noticed his thoughts instantly and spoke, "I also wanted to kill Nathias directly, to solve a major hidden threat for the empire. Unfortunately, this plane is unstable. If I exerted my full power against Nathias, I’m afraid that the plane would begin to collapse before I could kill him. By then, not only might Nathias not be killed, but your entire tribe could be buried here."

After hearing Caesar’s explanation, Tong Ling relaxed and bowed again, "Thank you for your guidance, sir. I understand now."

"Very good," Caesar nodded. "This young man has already told me about your tribe. Let’s go, I’ll take you out."

With the protection of Caesar, a great deity, the tribe’s evacuation went very smoothly. The sea tribe’s army, which had been guarding the only entrance to the plane, had already received Nathias’s orders to abandon this plane.

As for the task that Lu Hong needed to complete, he resolved it easily with Caesar’s help and did not even need to use the Crystal Stone beads given to him by the sea overlord.

Moreover, Caesar also met his beloved daughter in this plane. Seeing her pale face and weak breath, Caesar became so angered that he chased Lock Fan and gave him a severe beating.

Leaving the merged plane, everyone appeared in the far west of the ocean. This place was originally the main base of the Western Sea Tribe. Upon hearing that Caesar would emerge from this plane, they immediately chose to Escape, leaving the area completely clean, not even a spy left behind.

"I’ll head to the Red Marsh Sea Area first. You take Lai Li and Lock Fan back. After I return to the empire, we can gather and catch up properly."

Caesar nodded and then expressed his concern, "Be careful. This is sea tribe territory. If Nathias finds out I’m not by your side, he may come after you."

"I’ll be careful." In the vast ocean, as long as I don’t exert too much power, even the tidal orb won’t be able to detect my movements, let alone Nathias.

"Alright." Without further ado, since treating Lai Li would require many precious Magic Potions, Caesar didn’t want any delays.

The tribe followed Caesar to the empire. Recently, many territories lacking in dimensions around the Dragon Pond incident were just right for them to settle down. Additionally, being under the baronial title, they need not fear local troublemakers.

After bidding everyone farewell, Lu Hong advanced towards the Red Marsh Sea Area, but before he had gone far, he saw a luminous fish blocking his path.

"Is it you?" Lu Hong recognized this abnormally behaving sea tribe powerhouse and immediately scanned the surroundings.

"Stop looking, it’s just me." The luminous fish chuckled, "Let me introduce myself. I’m the luminous fish. You are a Baron of the empire, right?"

"Indeed, Baron Tu Kulhu." Lu Hong was unclear about the other’s intentions, so he went along with what the other said, "Since it’s just you, you didn’t come to kill me, did you?"

"Yes, fighting and killing is not good, and I don’t agree with it," the luminous fish spoke. "I have not participated in any previous wars the sea tribe waged against the empire. Following Nathias to the merged plane was solely to see you, the hero of the Human Race."

"Oh?" Lu Hong was somewhat surprised. This luminous fish seemed different from other sea tribe powerhouses.

"Then, are you here to chat with me today?"

"Not exactly," the luminous fish shook its head. "I hope to spar with you. Of course, you don’t have to worry about the tidal orb tracking, I’ll take care of all that."

"What exactly do you want?" Lu Hong’s face filled with suspicion. Was it really just a spar?

"Let’s fight first!" As soon as the luminous fish finished speaking, a bolt of golden lightning streaked across the sky.

Out of thin air, the luminous fish grasped, and a pure golden Sea God Trident dramatically appeared in its hand.

The trident brought a strong pressure to Lu Hong, and compared to the trident held by the Naga Queen, this one resembled a beating heart—it was alive!
