Chapter 624: Appreciation

While Qin Yun was thinking of seeking Suirenshi’s advice, he watched the battle between Boxun and the Three Sovereigns.

Now, all of the Three Realms was paying attention to the matter.

“Hahaha.”

‘Meng Fu’ roared with laughter that resounded throughout the world. “As expected of the Three Sovereigns, to take every conceivable possibility into account. By leaving a backdoor in the Torch Flame Kindling making it one with the Fire Cloud Palace’s array, be it sneakily stealing it or openly snatching it… it cannot be taken away. Impressive!”

Suirenshi, Fuxishi, and Suirenshi exchanged looks as they felt tense.

The more confident Boxun was, the more they felt a sense of foreboding.

This was an existence that all of Buddhism feared…

Such confidence likely meant that he had other tricks up his sleeve.

“However, what I want naturally needs some thought placed into it.” Meng Fu smiled at the Three Sovereigns. “It just so happens that, apart from controlling this young guy named Meng Fu, I am in control of another mighty figure in Fire Cloud Palace.”

“Another one is under his control?” The Three Sovereigns immediately turned worried. They paid great notice to every human mighty figure. Many of those cultivating in Fire Cloud Palace were their disciples. They shared a deep relationship with them.

Meng Fu nodded slightly as he looked into the distance.

A figure flew over from afar and it was none other than a chuckling fatty. He smiled while stroking his beard. “Greetings, Three Sovereigns.”

“My disciple!” Shennongshi’s eyes flashed a look of worry.

Shennongshi was extremely skilled in the domain of medicine and poisons.

Li Yu was the disciple he was most proud of. He was the only pinnacle mighty figure in the domain of medicine and poisons.

“Li Yu.” Suirenshi and Fuxishi also turned worried.

“To control the both of them, I did not only pay the price of two Six Desires avatars,” said Meng Fu with a smile. Li Yu also nodded by the side as he added, “Although Li Yu has a penchant for alcohol, he is ultimately a pinnacle mighty figure. I expended a Seven Emotions Six Desires fruit before succeeding. These two mighty figures are elites of you humans. I have no intention of killing them either.

“Therefore, I want to make a trade with the three of you.

“Their lives in exchange for the Torch Flame Kindling.”

Meng Fu chuckled and said, “As you know, once my Six Desires avatars are in full control, no one in the Three Realms can save them unless I voluntarily let them go free.”

The Three Sovereigns had heavy expressions.

Without stealing or snatching, he forced the Three Sovereigns into making a decision. To hand it over or not?

“Two choices.

“The three of you can destroy my two avatars, but with a thought from me, Meng Fu and Li Yu—two human mighty figures—would be reduced to dust with a poof. The Three Realms would no longer have them in existence.

“The other choice allows the three of you to rescue these two mighty figures. I would not even take any of their treasures. All of this in exchange for a single Torch Flame Kindling. All Suirenshi needs to do is spend some time to condense a new one and you humans will have your strength unaffected. Isn’t that good?” Meng Fu laughed. “Both of them are rare breeds of men. One wears his heart on his sleeve despite being a little infatuated. The other is obsessed with herbs, but has a penchant for alcohol. It would truly be a pity if the both of them were to die.

“Sovereigns…

“Quickly make your choice.”

Meng Fu and Li Yu wore identical expressions as they smiled at the Three Sovereigns.

At that instant, there were sighs from every corner of the Three Realms.

“Fiend King Boxun sure has incredible means. Each of the Fire Cloud Palace mighty figures have extraordinary characters, but he managed to silently control two of them. One of them is even a pinnacle mighty figure.”

“Is this what Fiend King Boxun is capable of?”

“Before the Buddhist Ancestor reached the Heavenly Dao realm, Boxun was able to fight a prolonged battle with the Buddhists by himself. His abilities at being a puppeteer of emotions and desires are better than Patriarch Mental Demon’s. What has just happened is just a trivial showcase of his abilities.”

“How terrifying!”

“Those ancient existences can easily kill a pinnacle mighty figure, but to easily control a pinnacle mighty figure, only Boxun is capable of doing so. That is his most terrifying aspect. He is similarly very powerful when it comes to frontal attacks. Back then, he was the King of Myriad Fiends, the leader of the fiends. He enjoyed a status higher than the Fiend Ancestor.”

“The Three Sovereigns will likely agree to this trade. After all, Meng Fu and Li Yu are ordinary and pinnacle mighty figures respectively. The two of their lives and the treasures they possess definitely exceed a single Torch Flame Kindling.”

“In fact, simply using Meng Fu as the object of trade might be enough for the Three Sovereigns to agree. Humans place great emphasis on their ties.”

“Boxun was careful. An ordinary mighty figure is of lesser value. But if he adds a pinnacle mighty figure, that would definitely be enough to make the Three Sovereigns agree to the exchange.”

…

The situation developed as everyone imagined.

During humanity’s rise, compromise was unavoidable. If they did not know how to compromise, humanity would not have developed to its present stage.

“Alright, the Torch Flame Kindling is yours,” said Suirenshi. “However, you are not to harm Meng Fu or Li Yu in any way. Furthermore, you have to promise us that you have not done anything else to other human mighty figures.”

“Haha, I, Boxun, am not that petty. I only controlled the two of them and have not done anything to other human mighty figures. I can even promise… that in the next million years, as long as human mighty figures do not provoke me, I will not do anything to them,” said Meng Fu with a smile.

“A million years?”

The Three Sovereigns’ hearts stirred as they came to a realization.

The coming million years was probably the amount of time Boxun planned to lie in dormancy. He would then make a comeback when the Daoist Three Pure Ones, the Buddhist Ancestor, the Fiend Ancestor, and others departed.

Suirenshi nodded and said, “Our promise implies karma. We believe you will not violate the karma.”

“Haha, I believe the Three Sovereigns will not violate such huge karma as well,” said Meng Fu with a laugh.

All of them wanted to cultivate to the Heavenly Dao realm.

Therefore, none of them wished to violate such huge karma.

This was also why God King Zhurong was willing to use the lotus seed to exchange for the Torch Flame Kindling from the Fiend Ancestor despite knowing that it was a trade of unequal objects. It was to end the karma of having Patriarch Blood Sea rescue him.

“I’ll first release Meng Fu as a show of sincerity,” said Li Yu with a smile. An invisible energy flew out of Meng Fu’s body and bore into Li Yu’s body. Li Yu also reached out his hand to grab the Torch Flame Kindling.

Sou!

This time, Li Yu was able to tear through space and vanish from the Heavenly realm. The Torch Flame Kindling was brought away without any resistance.

Meng Fu also completely regained his consciousness.

“Master.” When Meng Fu saw Fuxishi, Suirenshi, and Shennongshi, he could not help but lower his head in shame. “I was useless. I…”

In just a few seconds, Li Yu returned as well. He too wore a look of shame.

“Master.” Li Yu looked at Shennongshi.

“From today forth, the both of you are to cultivate in Fire Cloud Palace silently for ten thousand years and are barred from leaving! Hone your minds properly,” Suirenshi bellowed coldly. “Li Yu, you are not to touch any alcohol in this ten thousand years.”

“Can’t touch alcohol?” Li Yu bit his lips. He loved alcohol, but he knew that he had messed up badly.

“Yes, I will bear with it for ten thousand years,” said Li Yu.

“If you can’t even bear with such a trivial thing, why even cultivate?” Shennongshi was most vexed, vexed that his disciple’s mind was so lacking that Boxun used it as a weakness.

That was bringing bad things upon oneself as a result of one’s bad character.

Boxun was a harbinger of bad things if he discovered any flaw in a cultivator’s character. It allowed him to seep in and gain control.

“Both of you are to return to Fire Cloud Palace first,” shouted Suirenshi.

“Yes.” Meng Fu and Li Yu bowed obediently and, without saying anything else, flew straight into Fire Cloud Palace.

Suirenshi, Fuxishi, and Shennongshi looked in another direction. Standing in midair was a youth and he was none other than Qin Yun.

Many mighty figures had spectated the battled remotely. After all, Boxun and the Three Sovereigns were extremely terrifying existences in the Three Realms. If the battle of these existences were to drag on, the remnant blasts of the battle could implicate others. It was best to stay as far as possible. The only person that came close was Qin Yun!

In fact, watching at such a close distance was quite impolite.

However, Qin Yun had been inspired. In order to seek a breakthrough, he had rushed here.

Suirenshi laughed. “The three of us have long heard of the rise of a impressive human junior, but we had never had the chance to meet you. Sword Immortal Qin, now that you are here, why don’t you join us in Fire Cloud Palace for a drink. Will you have a chat with us three fogies?”

“Seniors, I do wish to seek the advice of the three of you.” Qin Yun lowered his body greatly.

“Haha, come.”

Suirenshi showed the warmest reception while Fuxishi and Shennongshi looked smilingly at Qin Yun.

The three of them thought highly of him.

He was a rare human junior of excellent pedigree after all these years!
