Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Fiend King’s Gift

“We’ve imbued this dragon scale with our qi so that you can use it as a formation trigger,” stated Fiend King Qinglong, summoning a green dragon scale for Mu Yu.

Mu Yu put the scale away and then inquired, “Why haven’t you used the scale to locate the other fiend kings if it can be used to search for immortals? All of you are immortals, aren’t you?”

“Sword Shadow Dust Gale expected us to search for the other fiend kings, which is why he cast formations that blocked out Dragon Searching Formation when he sealed the fiend kings away. We can only find the others if the seal on them weakens enough. That was how we located Baiyuan and Luanfeng’s whereabouts.”

“I’m not going to forgive your shifu and Illusionary Clear Rain for boring me for five thousand years,” grumbled Fiend King Baiyuan.

“Didn’t know you preferred to be dead,” ribbed Mu Yu.

“Saving us is one thing. Locking me up is another issue. I can’t take it out on them, so I can make do with blowing off steam on you. There is a saying that disciples should repay their mentor’s debts, and sons should repay their father’s debts in the name of filial piety, isn’t there?”

“And natural selection should take your life.”

“If you don’t call me ‘father-in-law’, I’ll make every day miserable for you.”

Fiend King Qinglong stroked his beard. “In light of you taking on this mission and the possibility of Third Heaven Palace trying to tail your movements, we have prepared four gifts for you to use in desperate situations. Consider it a reward for protecting Xiao Qinglong all these years.”

“I’m fine without any rewards.”

“Ungrateful brat, do you realise how coveted our domain abilities are? Show some appreciation,” chided Fiend King Baiyuan.

“Domain ability?” repeated Mu Yu, unable to rise above the allure of domain abilities. “Pretend I never said what I said before. I’ll gladly accept the gifts.”

“As expected of a philanderer,” commented Fiend King Baiyuan.

Fiend King Luanfeng flicked a red and gold feather from her tail over to Mu Yu, searing the air for the fleeting moment it flitted through the air. She boasted, “My domain is Ashes Nirvana: you can’t be killed as long as you’re in my domain. In saying that, who your opponent is does matter. If your opponent is Bai Jie, it’ll only protect you for a dozen or so seconds. If you’re up against ordinary Apotheosis Realm opponents, you’ll be immortal for an hour.”

“Thank you, Fiend King Phoenix.”

Ocean Fiend King conjured a blue bubble that housed a world akin to the ocean. “You’ve witnessed my domain ability already. By undulating the waves, those within the domain struggle to control their body for two hours. As a product of that, their offensive abilities are hampered. However, if you encounter someone as proficient as Reverend Xuan Jizi, they can dismantle the domain.”

Fiend King Qinglong spawned a golden scale glimmering so bright that the entire palace radiated. “My domain is called ‘I Reign Supreme’. In my domain, everyone else is at my mercy. Besides me, everyone else will be unable to exhibit their full potential.”

Mu Yu accepted the scale and responded with a propitious salute. “Thank you.”

“Hehe, ‘Father-in-law’, let’s hear it, or I won’t give you my sealed domain ability,” provoked Fiend King Baiyuan.

“Thank you again, three Fiend Kings.”

“There are four fiend kings here, you runt!” fumed Fiend King Baiyuan.

“Yes, I see three fiend kings.”

Fiend King Baiyuan plucked a fur from the back of his head and hurled it at Mu Yu. “My domain is Milky Way Masher! Within my domain, your strength will be magnified thousands of folds! You can crush any mountain to dust in one blow!”

“Old Furry, since we’ve known each other for so long and you have so much fur, how about you give me a couple dozen more strands?”

“I’ll pluck your nose off your face! Do you know how exhausting it is seal my domain ability? The hell do I look like, a chicken?! If it wasn’t for Qiao Xue’s sake, I’d give your face a makeover! Even I’m admiring my tolerance for you!”

“Ol’ Bai, you better not be alluding to me when you talk about chickens,” warned Fiend King Luanfeng.

“N-no, I’m just giving an example.”

“The next time I hear you use chickens in your examples, I’ll slap your neck around the other side.”

“Oh, come on. Do you need to be so pedantic?”

“Why don’t you give Qiao Xue a few strands, then?” asked Mu Yu.

“I’d love to, but she can’t use it because you need to, at least, be an Ascension Realm cultivator to deploy someone else’s domain. I’ll give her a bunch of fur once she’s ready. I don’t need your reminder, runt!”

No wonder why Gui Ximing only threatened his patriarch with the banner when we went to the past, realised Mu Yu.

“The domain abilities we’ve given you can only be used once, so think twice before you deploy one. My domain should last roughly two hours for you. Be grateful,” emphasised Fiend King Baiyuan.

“Thanks, Old Furry.”

“No manners whatsoever,” admonished Fiend King Baiyuan, albeit not caring.

Fiend King Qinglong stressed, “Mu Yu, we’re hoping our support will expedite your search. Don’t let us down.”

“I won’t.”

“Also…”
