Chapter 501: Chapter 498: Gathering of the Strong on Bala Island!

"Master, this is Bala Island. It is said that the Heavenly Spirit Grass is located about fifty nautical miles southwest of this place, on an island called White Python Island!"

Just as they entered the territory of the Philippines, Mei Ruohua reported to Li Chen.

Li Chen asked, "White Python Island?"

Mei Ruohua nodded and said, "Yes, it is said that the island is named after a huge white python!"

Li Chen slightly nodded, "Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are always guarded by ferocious beasts. It seems that this white python is the guardian beast of the Heavenly Spirit Grass!"

Hearing about the guardian beast, Mei Ruohua immediately thought of the Jiao Long in the Divine Dragon Pond and cautiously asked, "Is this white python as formidable as the dragon?"

"You know, that dragon is just a gluttonous fool, and it nearly drove me to bankruptcy!"

Mentioning the Jiao Long, Li Chen couldn’t help feeling the rage inside him.

That creature was recently going through a transformation, which increased its appetite significantly, and most of the jade he had collected from the Southern Border ended up in its stomach.

"Uh?"

Mei Ruohua was stunned, really not understanding which of her words had made her young master so angry.

Seeing Mei Ruohua looking genuinely apprehensive, Li Chen waved his hand and said, "It’s not your fault, it’s getting late now, let’s find a hotel to stay in for the night and talk more tomorrow!"

Mei Ruohua felt relieved and nodded repeatedly.

"Master, I have already reserved a room at the local five-star Hilton Hotel. Let me take you there now!"

As they arrived at the entrance of the Hilton Hotel, Li Chen slightly frowned.

He had just extended his senses and was surprised to find that in this small five-star hotel, there were several Masters of the Light Transformation Realm, including two from the Demigod Realm.

With so many Grandmaster Level experts gathered here, it seemed they were all eying the Heavenly Spirit Grass.

"Master, what’s wrong?"

Seeing Li Chen suddenly stop, Mei Ruohua asked in a low voice.

Li Chen waved his hand and said, "It’s nothing, go check in!"

Mei Ruohua responded and walked toward the front desk.

Just then, a burly black man who spotted the young and beautiful Mei Ruohua drooled openly and approached her to flirt.

"Beauty, are you interested in having a drink with me tonight? I have a 30-year-old fine French red wine here, and with a top beauty like you, it’s a perfect match!"

Mei Ruohua looked at him with disgust and said coldly, "Not interested, please keep your distance and don’t block the way!"

After saying that, she pushed past the black man and walked over to Li Chen.

"Master, I’ve checked in, it’s room 666 on the sixth floor!"

Li Chen nodded and prepared to go upstairs.

However, the black man still had his eyes on Mei Ruohua and stepped forward again to block their way.

"Brother, your girl looks fine and has quite a character. The boss has taken a fancy to her and wants to borrow her for fun tonight, you don’t mind, right?"

Upon hearing the black man’s words, everyone in the hotel turned to look in their direction.

Li Chen smiled coldly and pointed at Mei Ruohua, saying, "As long as you can defeat her, I have no objections!"

Hearing Li Chen’s words, the onlookers couldn’t help but look down on him.

Even a noblewoman snorted angrily, "Humph, letting a woman fight for him, what kind of man is he?"

The black man wiped his drool and leered at Mei Ruohua, saying, "Kid, are you sure you want me to fight her? Such a hot chick, what if it gets broken during the fight? How am I supposed to have fun tonight?"

Li Chen’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he said coolly, "You talk too much!"

"Ruohua, cut off one of his ears to teach him a lesson!"

Hearing Li Chen’s words, the black man burst into laughter.

"With this little lady, you think she can cut off your master’s ear? You..."

"Whoosh!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Mei Ruohua had already lightning-fast drawn her sword from its sheath.

"Crack!"

By the time she resheathed her sword, a blood-drenched ear had already fallen to the ground.

The black ghost stared at his own ear, his eyeballs almost popping out in shock.

"Ah, my ear, my ear!"

Seeing this scene, everyone present was stunned beyond belief.

Mei Ruohua’s sword move was extremely fast, and most of the people present didn’t even see clearly how she managed it.

At the second-floor stairway, a young woman, face full of shock, said, "Master, that woman’s sword drawing was so fast, her inner strength must have reached the Inner Strength Peak, right?"

Next to her stood a middle-aged woman with only one arm, but her eyes were remarkably fierce.

This person was none other than the sister of the current Thai King, the One-Armed Divine Monk Zheng An!

"A mere Inner Strength Peak, no cause for concern. I heard that Titan the Boxing Emperor, Malaysia’s Voodoo Master Du Sen, Myanmar Black Fog King, and Great Han Saber King Song Jiba are also here; they are the ones we should be focusing on!"

After entering the room, Mei Ruohua finally whispered, "Young Master, I sensed several extremely powerful auras just now; they must also be here for the Heavenly Spirit Grass."

Li Chen chuckled dismissively, "Just a few ants, no need to worry. Anyone who dares block the way, just cut them down with one sword strike!"

Seeing Li Chen so confident, Mei Ruohua didn’t say anything more, just nodded slightly in agreement.

Li Chen waved his hand, saying, "Alright, we have to go to White Python Island tomorrow, you should wash up and sleep."

Hearing Li Chen telling her to "wash up and sleep," Mei Ruohua’s cheeks blushed, and she asked softly, "Young Master, do you need me to serve you in bed tonight? I have always preserved my sanctity, waiting for your favor!"

After speaking, she looked at Li Chen with expectant eyes, waiting for his response. This anxious feeling was like that of the concubines waiting for the emperor to flip a card to select them.

"No need, go to sleep, I need to meditate tonight!"

After saying this, Li Chen paid no more attention to Mei Ruohua, turned around, and walked towards the window, looking out at the distant seascape.

In Mei Ruohua’s beautiful eyes, a hint of disappointment emerged. After softly responding, she turned and entered the bathroom.

Suddenly!

A gust of sea wind came blowing in, causing the windows to rattle noisily.

Li Chen’s pupils slightly contracted, murmuring softly, "There seems to be a smell of blood in this sea breeze!"

Twenty nautical miles from the Hilton Hotel, there was a cruise ship.

In the main hall of the cruise ship, there was a divine position set up.

In front of the divine position, black fog swirled, and a faint human figure could be seen appearing and disappearing.

Below, everyone knelt; all trembled in fear.

This was because in front of them, three blood-drenched corpses had already been laid out.

"A bunch of useless trash, what are you even good for? If you can’t even handle this little thing, what do I keep you for?"

"Divine Master, now the powerhouses from various countries in Southeast Asia have all gathered in the Philippines, aiming for the Heavenly Spirit Grass on White Python Island. With just these people we have..."

Before they could finish speaking, the black fog surged towards them like a swarm of bloodsucking bats.

In the blink of an eye, it had sucked all the blood of those speaking individuals completely dry.

The others were terrified to the core, all of them clammed up, not daring to say another word.

"If I don’t get the Heavenly Spirit Grass this time, I’ll suck all your blood dry!"

The owner of the divine position, previously a Divine Realm Peak powerhouse, encountered Heavenly Tribulation three hundred years ago while attempting to form his Golden Core. His physical body was destroyed on the spot, but his Divine Soul luckily escaped and took refuge in the Spiritual Position, venerated by the local natives, allowing him to barely survive till now.

As time passed, he felt his Divine Soul growing weaker. Initially, consuming human blood every ten days or half a month was enough, but now he needs to consume almost daily.

Therefore, he urgently needs the Spiritual Power of the Heavenly Spirit Grass to strengthen his Divine Soul, preparing for rebirth through possession...
