Chapter 426: Chapter 410 Sea-Sky Feast (3/3)

"Thief!"

A shout of scolding fell from the sky, and several figures descended, each of them incredibly tall and of strange, ancient shapes.

The tallest and most robust among them had a carapace like a lobster, six limbs that were over thirty feet long, but his upper body was human-shaped. However, his arms had turned into massive pincers, and his hair, each strand as thick as a finger, was golden-colored and added up to just over a hundred strands in total.

And then there was a Snake Person!

Zhou Heng had seen a Snake Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Clan before, but this Snake Man was male, and the transformation into a snake was even more pronounced, with everything but his head resembling that of a snake, and he even had gills on both cheeks, making him look even more bizarre.

He had no feet but was born with two pairs of arms. His mouth flicked its tongue, making constant hissing noises.

There was also a Fishman, a black fish with legs and arms, but the rest of him looked nothing like a human.

Apart from these three monsters, the fourth "person" finally looked quite human. He was a seven or eight-year-old boy, about the same height and build as Wang Ke, with a dense head of black hair and a proud expression on his little face. If not for the pair of antlers on his head, he would have looked no different from any ordinary human child.

This little boy must have been the one who had fought with Wang Ke. Zhou Heng could see torn spots on his clothes, obviously, the fight had been quite fierce.

"Despicable humans, insulting our Imperial Clan’s Little Crown Prince, deliberately leading us away, and then stealing—shameless!" the Snake Man said angrily, his Nascent Soul Realm aura billowing.

"What, I bullied him?" Wang Ke felt aggrieved, leaping out and saying, "I was just by the river fetching water when he started peeing at me—"

"Don’t you dare say more!" The little boy with antlers flushed crimson and immediately shouted fiercely.

"Hmph, you drenched me, why shouldn’t I talk about it?" Wang Ke was fearless, for he was considered the second-best expert in the world!

"This..." The Snake Man was stunned for a moment, but the Fishman immediately took over and said, "It is an honor for the Little Crown Prince to pee at you. You should kneel down and be grateful for his great kindness!"

"You nonsensical stinky fish, I will eat you!" Wang Ke ground his teeth, as he would eat anything alive other than humans. Children simply couldn’t stand being wronged, and they had angered him quite a bit. He pointed around at the three different creatures and said, "And you, and you too, I will eat you all!"

"How dare you!" The three exotic experts scolded at the same time. Among them, the Lobster Person was an Old Ancestor of the Divine Infant Realm, while the Fishman and the Snake Man were of the Nascent Soul Realm. Despite there being only three of them, they could match thousands of troops!

Zhou Heng understood. Because Wang Ke had fought with the other side’s Little Crown Prince, he had drawn the attention of the three guards. When they ran out, Wang Ke took the opportunity to lead sheep away and moved the pot they were cooking over.

If it weren’t for the fact that the child was of high status, it would be impossible for all three of them to come out; it was indeed quite a coincidence.

However, if that child was of Imperial Clan blood, it was evident he could not belong to the Heavenly Demon Clan or the Night Demon Clan, but rather... the Sea Clan! Right, whether it was the Lobster People, the Fishman, or the Snake Man, they all made it very clear.

Zhou Heng raised his hand slightly, and power surged forth, instantly dissolving the imposing aura of the three Sea Clan experts. He smiled faintly and said, "Let the little children resolve things between themselves. Why should adults interfere!"

"Humph, how noble is my prince of blood! How can he be compared to this Little Child?" the Snake Man angrily said, his cheeks puffing like a toad.

"My disciple doesn’t need to feel inferior to anyone!" Zhou Heng’s face darkened, and a terrifying aura erupted, instantly surpassing that of the three great Sea Clan experts, causing them to break into a cold sweat. Even the Lobster Person of the Divine Infant Realm couldn’t help but tremble his great pincers.

At first, his aura had wiped out millions of troops in front of Heavenly Gate Mountain, establishing an authority that even those of the Divinity Transformation Realm could not hope to follow!

The three from the Sea Clan looked at Zhou Heng, feeling that though the body of this human male was tiny, he seemed to contain a godlike force within him that was earth-shattering. They dared not meet his gaze directly and wished to prostrate themselves, lest they attract the scrutiny of a king, which could cause their spirit and heart to tremble in fear and unease.

They were both shocked and angry. How could a mere human make them feel such an overwhelming pressure as their king did?

How could this youngster compare to their great king?

"Little Butt, let’s have another round, do you dare?" Wang Ke shouted across at the little boy.

"Fight then, fight. Why would I, the Little Crown Prince, be afraid of you?" The antlered little boy said.

"Your Highness, you must not!"

"Your status is too noble, how could you stoop to physically engaging with this filthy human?"

"Your Highness, please reconsider!"

The three Sea Clan experts all advised, although their Realms were much higher than that of the little boy, they kept their posture extremely low, like that of household slaves.

"I, the Little Crown Prince, am not afraid!" the little boy said with great dominance, but suddenly two streams of clear snot rolled out, which he quickly sucked back in, utterly shattering his imposing image.

Black Donkey became excited immediately, pushing Wang Ke forward.

"Bring it on!" the Little Foodie shouted.

"Who’s afraid of whom!" Snot Worm shouted back loudly.

Thump, thump, thump, thump, the two little boys both charged forward, and after colliding, they immediately began to scuffle. There was nothing graceful about children fighting—you punch, I kick, they grabbed ears and pinched wee-wees, each employing every trick in the book.

The three experts from the Sea Clan watched with trepidation; that was their revered little ancestor, after all. Even the smallest injury would be a grave sin for which they could never forgive themselves.

The spiritual power levels of these two children were quite astonishing. They were only seven or eight years old but had already reached the Initial Separation Realm, only a step away from the Land Cleaving Realm. But after all, children are children; their bodies hadn’t fully grown, and their stamina was limited. After fighting for half an hour, both of them were out of energy.

"Admit defeat, you’re no match for this prince!" said the Sea Clan Little Crown Prince as he grabbed a chunk of Wang Ke’s cheek and pulled.

Wang Ke, grimacing in pain, said, "It’s you who should admit defeat, surrender now!" He was also grabbing the cheek of the Sea Clan Little Crown Prince.

Both kids were exhausted; they just held onto each other’s cheeks, seeing who would give in first.

"Your Highness, it’s a draw, let’s just leave it at that!" urged the three experts from the Sea Clan.

"It won’t do. I will win!" the Little Crown Prince refused to concede.

"I’m the one who’ll win!" Wang Ke was equally stubborn.

At this rate, it looked like the two little brats were going to be at it for a while longer.

"Time to eat!" Black Donkey said, salivating as he walked toward the large pot that was full of nutritious ingredients.

"Stop right there!" The three experts from the Sea Clan shouted in unison. The food in that pot wasn’t just picked up for free; it was actually a medicinal feast called "Sea-Sky Feast," with several ingredients being the Sea Clan’s accumulation of tens of thousands of years. They had been missing a few minor ingredients produced on land, which is why they had been holding off on making it.

The Sea Clan was now prospering and beginning to attack the land, providing the perfect opportunity to finally collect all the ingredients not long ago, and so they began cooking here. However, to their negligence, the pot was stolen along with all the ingredients!

This "Sea-Sky Feast" was the essence of tens of thousands of years of the Sea Clan’s accumulation, a jewel among treasures, especially made for Bone Refinement and strengthening the Divine Infant. How could they let outsiders eat it?

"Don’t be so stingy, it’s just a pot of meat with some herbs!" Black Donkey said nonchalantly.

"Step back!" The three experts from the Sea Clan shouted at the same time.

"Hmph!" Zhou Heng snorted heavily; his breath surged. The three experts felt weak in their limbs, their Spiritual Power running wild within their bodies as if gone mad, and they collapsed to the ground.

"Meat! Eat meat!" Black Donkey charged out.

Zhou Heng and Black Donkey each served themselves a bowl of soup and began to eat with relish as the aroma wafted out. The three Sea Clan experts felt a mix of anger and envy; the "Sea-Sky Feast" was, after all, the quintessence of the Sea Clan’s centuries of accumulation, enough to make even them jealous.

"Don’t be shy, let’s eat together!" Black Donkey offered, feigning generosity.

The feast was originally theirs; although most of it was meant to nourish the Little Crown Prince, they too could have had a share. But Zhou Heng and Black Donkey acted as if the whole pot was theirs, which naturally turned the experts’ faces an angry shade of green.

"It smells so good!" Wang Ke, attracted by the tantalizing scent, couldn’t help but twitch his nose. As a true foodie, he felt tremendous pressure.

"Hmph, just beg for mercy and admit defeat, and I’ll let you go and treat you to some meat!" The Sea Clan Little Crown Prince was quite generous in his offer.

"Pfft, aren’t you drooling just as much? Surrender, and there will be meat for you!" Wang Ke tried to tempt him in return.

After a stalemate, the two little fellows let go of each other at the same time, dusted off their bottoms, got up from the ground, and scampered over for some meat.

—Filling their stomachs was the priority; they could always resume fighting after eating.

Seeing the Little Crown Prince eating heartily next to Wang Ke, with no cares in the world, the Sea Clan’s three experts felt like crying but had no tears. After all that, it turned out they were the villains!

They grudgingly came over, served themselves a bowl of soup, and started eating. They figured it was better in their stomachs than being completely devoured by Zhou Heng and his company!

The "Sea-Sky Feast" was quickly finished off by the group, particularly with Wang Ke, the Little Foodie, in their midst. After picking all the meat from the pot, he lifted the whole thing and gulped down the remaining soup, leaving nothing behind.

The three Sea Clan experts watched with heartache. These ingredients had been collated by the Sea Clan over tens of thousands of years, meant to strengthen the roots of the Little Crown Prince. Now, most of it had been eaten by outsiders, leaving their faces dark with displeasure.

Unfortunately for them, they were no match for Zhou Heng, so they could only complain inwardly, not daring to openly criticize since their king was not present.

"My name is Wang Ke, what’s yours?" The Little Foodie wiped his mouth. They had agreed to fight after eating, but after sharing a meal, their friendship had been established, and it felt awkward to fight again.

"This prince hails from Ao Kongshan!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend, vote, and support it on Qidian.com. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
