Boiling Beast Bloodline-Chapter 2234 - 683: Final Battle Countdown [9]_2

But things did not go as wished. The words spoken by the last Sea Clan emissary made Old Liu and all the Aegean experts visibly change color, murderous intent rising.

"Though rumors are not to be wholly believed, my visit here at Jieke Hill has at least confirmed one indisputable rumor..." The fourth Sea Clan emissary, Princess Melodhra of the Seia Sea Kingdom, took over the conversation from the Siren female envoy, and in front of countless people, pointed her jade finger at Guoguo standing on Old Liu’s shoulder, and softly said: "...Richard is indeed a ’Pikachu enthusiast’!"

A suffocating silence!

No one dared to laugh or could manage to laugh. Even the other three Demon Sea emissaries had forced, silent smiles on their faces.

The noble smile originally on Liu’s face vanished instantly, his eyes warm as a spring breeze turned into freshly forged branding irons, shooting out fierce molten heat. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Princess Melodhra regretted her words the moment they left her mouth.

Without turning her head, Princess Mingzhu could feel that the three comrades beside her were equally chilled and terrified, whether in soul or body...

Before coming to Heigar, none of the four Demon Sea emissaries thought they would lose their nerve on the spot.

The four of them were either of noble blood or ruthless warriors, without intense pride, supreme national honor, and a determination to face certain death, they wouldn’t dare come to Heigar for the meeting.

Princess Melodhra had heard many rumors about the Aegean Saint Xiao, generally saying that this Beamon was unparalleled and had an awe-inspiring presence; but after seeing him in person, Princess Mingzhu felt that this Beamon Shaman was just average.

As someone in the higher echelons, Princess Mingzhu understood that the so-called ’imposing presence’ is just a façade upheld by people, so even if Richard O. Liu’s side was flanked by an impressive array of experts, at most she and her companions felt a trace of unease and tension—this wasn’t cowardice or lack of bravery, but an instinctive awe of those standing at the world’s peak.

The Mermaid Princess hadn’t expected that someone who looked so polite moments ago could, with just a glance, plunge her—a Seia Sea Kingdom princess used to storms—into an inescapable abyss of fear!

Those eyes with their silver cross-shaped gleam were like the winter sun, offering warmth one moment, then blinding brilliance the next, too dazzling to meet!

The change was too great! So great that no one could adapt!

Mocking the Saint Xiao Great Magician as a ’Pikachu enthusiast’ wasn’t an impulsive move by Princess Melodhra, but a premeditated and prepared strategy to provoke him.

Before stepping on the Well Teleportation Array to head to Heigar, the chief staff officer of the Sea Clan Headquarters, the top royal advisor of the Seia Sea Kingdom, Master Juninio, had given specific instructions to the four emissaries: "As long as each of you says your designated line, that Saint Xiao Great Magician will have no choice but to accept your challenge at the Jieke Hill ceremony! Remember, your task is to strike at the right time, one word: delay! You must disrupt their rhythm, make them lose face, and strategically fail!"

"Your Highness Princess Mingzhu, your beauty is unmatched, so the most important line is entrusted to you." The cunning chief advisor had said at the time: "Only from your mouth will that line carry weight!"

As the sole plenipotentiary ambassador from the Seia Sea Kingdom to Mount Hyjal, Princess Melodhra had no reason not to follow the chief advisor’s orders. She knew the Sea Clan and Demon Clan must have other follow-up plans she wasn’t privy to, but as a pawn, she had the pawn’s awareness, unable to understand the high-level secrets with no way to try to comprehend them.

The Aegean Saint Xiao’s initial graceful and genteel demeanor undoubtedly enhanced the confidence of Princess Mingzhu and her partners singing in harmony; until now, Her Highness finally understood why so many feared this Aegean Saint Xiao.

The gap was indeed present, like carnivorous animals in the wild, a wolf roams the world eating meat, while a dog roams the world eating garbage. Without side-by-side comparison, it’s unclear who is the pearl and who is the fish-eye.

"Avril, where are you..." In panic, Princess Melodhra tried to find the figure of her cousin in the crowd, but unfortunately, Avril and Figo didn’t come today.

Liu Zhenhan stared at the group of fresh-faced Demon Sea emissaries for a long time without speaking.

The four Demon Sea emissaries, who had just been calm and composed, gradually averted their eyes from his gaze. Before long, all began to sweat profusely, Ashley Yang and the Siren Hongyin were slightly better, but Iswood and Melodhra couldn’t suppress their trembling, their fingers shaking as if struck by a stroke, the crisp sound of their clattering teeth made one suspect whether a diligent woodpecker was hidden in their throats.

"Four little reptiles, are you not planning to go back alive?" Regardless of any past grudges with Old Liu, openly provoking a Dragon City overlord in front of the lord is definitely something fiery Agassi would be the first to confront: "No need to provoke trouble, if you want to witness the power of Aegeans, I’ll pick four young dragons to duel you one-on-one!"
