Chapter 194: A Deal
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Under the pressure, Duan Yue’s expression changed drastically, and beads of sweat oozed out on his forehead. Even he would tremble in the face of a Martial Emperor.
Although Yunxiao’s face was livid as well, he clenched his teeth and gazed coldly at the clan chief, showing no sign of fear. What flickered in his eyes was a proud and unyielding look.
Once a peak Martial Sovereign, how could he bow to a mere Martial Emperor? Wasn’t that a big joke?
The clan chief’s face showed an astounded look, and then he slowly retracted the pressure and said in an old voice, “Do these two humans have anything to do with the previous one?”
Tie Fei thought for a moment and answered, “These two humans said they have a blood feud with the previous one.”
“Oh?”
The clan chief stared at Yunxiao for a while as he snorted coldly and said, “An excuse! No human being is good. Drag them out, kill them, and feed them to the fishes!”
That gave Tie Fei a pause, but he stood up obediently and gave Yunxiao a pitying look.
“Feed my ass!” Yunxiao did not expect that this old fish head would order them to be killed as soon as they met. He flew into a rage and scolded, “Stop pretending in front of me! Do you believe I will destroy your Firefish clan?!”
He stretched his hands, and with a ‘twang’, the sea beast tendon enough to bind a Martial Grandmaster broke.
“You!” Startled, Tie Fei roared furiously, “How dare you speak rudely to the Clan Chief and even utter such a wild statement! Die now!”
“You’ll be the one who dies!”
As soon as Tie Fei threw out a punch, the seawater in the whole great hall surged, but it was immediately pressed down by a stronger force.
Duan Yue stared at him with a cold face as he lightly destroyed the punch force and smashed out an attack backhandedly, which frantically compressed the water within several meters around into a ball, trapping Tie Fan inside.
Although the sea beast tendon was tough, Yunxiao managed to break it by burning it with the illusory phoenix flame. Duan Yue’s attack by itself was a kind of extremely cold white flame, so he had also easily burnt the tendon.
“How dare you!” The clan chief bellowed. He unleashed his aura once again, which formed into an extremely strong pressure and spread out across the great hall. “Are you two not afraid that I will cut you into a thousand pieces?!”
Yunxiao sneered, “I’ve asked you to stop pretending! Yes, you are a Martial Emperor, and you do indeed have the ability to kill us with one strike.” His eyes gradually narrowed, and he said coldly, “But, you can only attack once. Your condition cannot escape from my eyes. You are hanging on your last breath, and if you attack even once, you will die immediately!”
“What!” Tie Fei, who was trapped inside the water ball, was shocked, and he looked at his clan chief in horror.
There was a flash of shock in the clan chief’s eyes. Suddenly, he seemed to have turned so old that he was about to die, and he panted slightly while saying, “Human, you are right, I can no longer last for too long. I’m trying to use as little energy as possible now. But, if you threaten the Firefish clan, I’ll not hesitate to kill you.”
Yunxiao snorted coldly. “We bore you no malice, but as soon as we met, you ordered us to be killed and fed to the fishes. F*ck! I hate when people threaten me! If you don’t apologize, we will kill this Tie Fei first before you can kill us. Let’s see what other experts your Firefish clan have that can support your facade!”
“You! How dare you!” Tie Fei flew into a rage in the water ball. After suddenly learning that the clan chief’s condition was so serious, he felt the sky was falling and the earth was sinking as the world turned dark around him. He immediately mustered all his Primordial Qi and broke out of the water ball.
Although he was a five-stars Martial Grandmaster, he could outdo himself underwater while Duan Yue was restricted. Because of that, the difference between them was not large. As soon as Tie Fei flew out of the water ball, he threw himself fiercely at Yunxiao.
“Tie Fei, stop!”
The clan chief’s voice was not loud, but it was very powerful. Tie Fei’s body instantly halted in mid-air, and he forcibly pulled back his fist as je shot a fierce look at Yunxiao while fuming.
“Human, since you bear us no malice, you may leave now. Don’t ever come to Firefish’s territory again.” The clan chief seemed very tired. Had it not been for his imminent death, he would not have let the two of them go.
Yunxiao and Duan Yue exchanged a glance, and they just stood there, unmoving.
Tie Fei bellowed, “The Clan Chief is kind enough to let you go, so why are you still here? Get lost now!”
Yunxiao glanced at him and said, “After following you here, I feel that you are a nice sea man who is quite honest and loyal. But, there are two things I wish to say. First, your clan chief letting us go is the result of his deliberation, not an act of kindness. Secondly, I don’t want to leave yet. I want to make a deal with you.”
“We’re not interested in making a deal with you. Go now! Apart from me, the Firefish clan has many people who can take you down. Be careful that I may go back on my word.” The clan chief waved impatiently with a look of disgust.
Yunxiao sneered, “Sea people have always been so arrogant, and I’ve already learned that. What if my offer is to let you have another hundred years of life and make that badly wounded Tie Fan directly become a Martial Emperor?”
“What!”
The clan chief jumped from his throne as if he got an electric shock, and he shouted with a look of disbelief, “What did you just say? Repeat that again!”
Even Tie Fei was so startled that his pair of fish eyes grew wide.
Duan Yue frowned slightly. He would have believed it if Yunxiao said that he could let this old fish live for a few more decades, but another hundred years? And he did not believe Yunxiao could help a Martial Grandmaster, who had just stepped into the nine-stars realm, become a Martial Emperor, not to mention that the nine-stars Martial Grandmaster was badly wounded at the moment.
Yunxiao repeated with a sneer. The whole great hall fell silent in an instant, with only some tiny fishes swimming back and forth while spitting bubbles.
Gulp!
The clan chief swallowed hard and said with great difficulty, “Human, if you lie, I swear I will kill you! Tell me how you want to make the deal, and how can I trust you?”
No matter if it were giving him another hundred years to live or helping Tie Fan become a Martial Emperor, they were enough to solve the Firefish clan’s present crisis. How could he resist them?
“Hehe! It’s an easy deal. In fact, this is a win-win situation for both you and us.” Yunxiao smiled faintly, and his eyes flickered as he said, “My lord should know about the Kunwu Divine Tree?”
The clan chief gasped and blurted out in horror, “You…I can’t believe you’re eyeing it!”
Tie Fei’s expression also changed drastically, showing a look of shock.
“What? Is there a problem?” Yunxiao frowned and asked, puzzled. “With it, I can not only help my lord live for a hundred years more, but I can also help Tie Fan become a Martial Emperor.”
The clan chief was silent for a moment before he sighed and said, “So, you came here for it. Tie Fei, tell the two humans what happened.” As if all the air had leaked out of him suddenly, he turned old once again.
Tie Fei’s expression was unsightly and his eyes were full of hate. “The Kunwu Divine Tree was originally a sacred relic guarded by our clan, but it has now fallen into the hands of those razor clams!”
Yunxiao asked in surprise, “This Kunwu Divine Tree should be in the nearby sea, right? I thought you said the Firefish clan is the overlord within a radius of ten thousand miles?”
Tie Fei’s face flashed with shame and he said angrily, “Yes, we are a D-grade sea clan, and those razor clams are just an E-grade clan. But, they have three nine-stars Martial Grandmasters. Unless Lord Clan Chief strikes himself, we are no match for them in terms of overall strength. The Kunwu Divine Tree had been the treasure of our clan for ten thousand years. Swallowing its leaves can not only nourish vitality, but also improve cultivation base. Because of that, the Razor Clam clan turned hostile against us. Maybe they learned about Lord Clan Chief’s condition. Otherwise, they would not have dared to attack us.”
“Swallowing the leaves of Kunwu…”
Yunxiao almost fainted. These ignorant idiot fish heads!
He snorted and said, “Since you lost it, why don’t you fight to get it back? Now that they have offended you openly, there is no more room for negotiations. They have three nine-stars Martial Grandmasters, and when Lord Clan Chief passes away, hehe, your entire clan will be in danger!”
The clan chief also looked deeply worried, and he said in a deep voice, “Do you think I never thought of what you’ve just said? But, unless I personally kill their three nine-stars Martial Grandmasters, we are no match for them even with the entire strength of my clan.”
Yunxiao pondered for a moment before he said, “Since the Kunwu Divine Tree was under your care for ten thousand years, do you know of any way to enter the inner part of the divine tree?”
The size of a Kunwu Divine Tree was not like that of a common tree, and with all its branches and leaves spread out, it was even larger than a city at times.
While frowning, the clan chief thought for a moment and said, “There’s no way to sneak in, but if we break through their lockdown by force, it will be very difficult for them to find us once we are inside.”
Yunxiao smiled and said, “That will make things easy. Please lead the way, my lord! As long as we rush in and hide there for ten days to half a month, I guarantee you will gain an extra hundred years of longevity when we come out.”
Tie Fei said in shock, “No! Lord Clan Chief can only make one attack now. What if he’s in danger? Let me take you there!”

The clan chief shook his head and said, “The Razor Clam clan attaches great importance to the Kunwu Divine Tree, so their three nine-stars Martial Grandmasters are taking turns to guard it. You can’t break through their lockdown with your strength. Let me take you there. But human, don’t forget your promise to us. You must help Tie Fan step into the realm of Martial Emperors.”
Yunxiao began to admire this old man. In general, the older one got, the more afraid one was of death. But, judging from what he said, he was prepared to sacrifice himself.
“Haha! If that’s the case, bring Tie Fan together. As long as we can enter the inner part of the divine tree and stay there for ten days to half a month, I’ll have ways to help him to break through and become a Martial Emperor!”
The reason he was so confident was because of his understanding of the precious plant. These underwater races occupied a tremendous amount of resources, but they did not know how to fully utilize them. It was also a kind of fairness of creation. Human beings were given great wisdom, but they were crowded on a continent where resources were scarce. If a sea territory like this were in the Heavenly Martial Continent, all the top powers would have fought each other to death for it.
