Lie Customs
Above the sea, the waves shimmered.
Everyone seemed to be under a Body Immobilization Spell, their eyes fixed on the demon kneeling on the deck, begging for mercy.
Boundless waves surged in each of their hearts.
How powerful were Three Yang Realm experts?
Looking at the entire Northern Region, they were considered top-tier figures.
Yet, such an existence was now kneeling and begging for mercy under a single finger from Zhong Qing.
This truly overturned their worldview and shattered their understanding.
"Senior, Senior, I was wrong, please spare my wretched life."
The demon kowtowed like pounding garlic.
He trembled all over, his Soul quivering.
At that moment, he clearly perceived that if he didn't beg for mercy, he would be shattered to pieces.
Not an exaggerated shattering, but a true, literal shattering, even turning into nothingness.
But at the same time.
With each word the demon spoke, the shock in everyone's hearts grew deeper.
Everyone's gaze towards Zhong Qing changed completely.
This person, from the very first meeting, seemed to constantly shock them.
But all the previous shocks combined were not as intense as this one.
An existence that could make a Three Yang First Realm demon kneel and beg for mercy was certainly not a weakling.
This meant that the other party was at least a Three Yang First Realm expert.
Perhaps even a top-tier existence within the Three Yang First Realm.
Tiger Mountain's face turned pale.
Thinking back to his earlier casual probing of Zhong Qing, his heart trembled.
Fortunately, the other party didn't hold it against him.
Otherwise, he might already be lying dead.
Ou Zishu's brain buzzed incessantly.
He also hadn't expected that the passerby he kindly invited was actually a peak Three Yang Realm expert.
The key was that he was still so young.
This, perhaps, was another peerless Prodigy like Bai Ling.
Nian Nian covered her mouth with her small hands.
Her gem-like eyes were filled with shock.
She never imagined that this kind and amiable Big Brother was actually a great expert of the Three Yang Realm.
But soon, she became excited again.
Didn't this mean she also knew a great Three Yang Realm expert?
The other party was even more powerful than her master.
If she returned with this experience, she could boast to her little friends for a year, no, ten years.
While everyone was utterly shocked.
Zhong Qing looked at the demon before him.
He said indifferently, "Give me a reason not to kill you."
The demon, who was begging for mercy, first froze.
Then, he was overjoyed.
Since the other party asked this, as long as he could demonstrate his value, he would naturally live.
"Senior, I am willing to submit, I can take you across the sea!"
"Keeping me is useful, very useful!"
These words made Zhong Qing's thoughts stir.
"In that case, then take me across the sea!"
"Yes, Master!"
The demon breathed a sigh of relief, his life was finally saved.
He moved his body and plunged directly into the sea.
Then he transformed into his Dragon King Dharma Body.
His massive body was like a mountain.
Indeed, such a physique was extremely intimidating.
The demon, having entered the sea, dared not entertain thoughts of escaping.
After all, during their brief exchange earlier, others might not have known.
But he had truly felt Zhong Qing's terror.
This was simply an existence he could not contend with.
Thinking of Zhong Qing's methods, his inner fear grew threefold, and he said with a trembling voice, "Senior, please board!"
Clearly, this was a demon who knew how to adapt.
Zhong Qing boarded the demon's back, then looked at the Qingfeng Temple group.
"Earlier, I was sincerely invited, allowing me to board the ship and travel together."
"As a return favor, I now invite you all to travel with me. What do you all think?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was clearly moved.
The ship was slow, and the route was long.
The sea also held various dangers.
But if they traveled with Zhong Qing.
It would undoubtedly be much safer.
And the speed of travel would increase significantly.
Tiger Mountain, the burly man, rubbed his hands, his face full of embarrassment, "Senior, how can we be so presumptuous?"
In the cultivation world, the strong are respected, even if Zhong Qing was younger than him, just by being able to subdue the demon, he was worthy of being called Senior.
Zhong Qing smiled and said, "Meeting is fate!"
"The Tiger Mountain I know is a straightforward man, why has he become so hesitant now?"
"This is not your usual personality!"
Hearing Zhong Qing's teasing, a flicker of awkwardness crossed Tiger Mountain's old face.
He didn't want to be like this either.
Who knew Zhong Qing's strength would be so great?
Being in the presence of such a strong person, it was inevitable to feel a bit uncomfortable.
However, he also realized.
Zhong Qing was an easygoing person.
There was no need for him to put psychological pressure on himself.
Thinking of this, he cupped his hands and said.
"Since Senior has so graciously invited us, if we refuse, that would be too ungrateful!"
As he spoke, he stepped forward directly, taking the lead to board the Dragon King's back.
Ou Zishu, holding Nian Nian, followed closely with Fo Shan and Liu Shan.
The demon's fawning voice sounded at the opportune moment.
"Master, hold on tight, I'm about to set off!"
As he spoke, his body moved, like an arrow shot from a bowstring, instantly shooting out.
His massive body stirred up a thousand-foot wave.
It was many times faster than the ship!
"Wow!"
"So fast!"
Nian Nian exclaimed, her tender childish voice echoing over the sea.
It injected a different kind of vitality into the dry and monotonous journey.
It must be said, the demon was indeed a creature capable of running rampant in the Chaotic Demon Sea.
His appearance saved Zhong Qing a lot of travel time.
In just half a day, he had crossed tens of thousands of miles of sea, arriving at Liehai Pass!
Liehai Pass was an island!
It connected to all directions of the sea.
It was also an important supply station and trading point for tens of thousands of miles of sea area.
Before even landing, one could see dense clusters of ships converging from all directions.
While still at sea, one could hear the bustling, noisy Mortal World Qi from the island wafting over.
And this was the destination of Ou Zishu and the others!
Of course, it was also a necessary stop for Zhong Qing on his way to Central State.
Everyone successfully landed on the island!
It's worth mentioning that the demon's appearance caused a stir.
However, no one dared to be so tactless as to come and cause trouble!
It could be imagined with one's toes that someone who could ride such a terrifying Yao Beast was no ordinary person.
And as Zhong Qing and the others went ashore.
The demon transformed into human form and cautiously followed behind.
He looked like a small servant.
This scene made Ou Zishu and the others marvel repeatedly.
How did they not know that a Three Yang Realm Yao Beast could be so easily tamed?
Of course, they just didn't know how much the tremor Zhong Qing's finger had brought to his Soul.
Upon reaching the port!
One could see a very prosperous city ahead.
People came and went on the roads, and inns and shops lined the streets.
There were also some Loose Cultivators setting up stalls to trade spiritual materials and precious medicines.
Compared to the vast continent, the resources within the sea area were somewhat richer.
The deep sea nurtured various Heaven And Earth Treasures and contained various Secret Realms and Grotto-Heavens.
Although the Chaotic Demon Sea was full of dangers, it also attracted a continuous stream of treasure hunters to scour for treasures.
And this place was a trading hub.
It was simply bustling and prosperous beyond words.
At this moment, Ou Zishu, holding Nian Nian, came before Zhong Qing: "Senior, thank you for your care along the way. We have no way to repay you. Would Senior be willing to honor us by letting us host a small drink at the Tianxiang Tower ahead?"
"Alright!"
Whenever he arrived at a new place, Zhong Qing wanted to try the local wine.
It was rare for them to have traveled together from the Northern Region, and having a drinking companion, Zhong Qing naturally wouldn't refuse.
