Divine King of Honour-Chapter 646: The Arrogant Eight-Clawed King
Luo Bing also looked at the surging swords in the sky, her phoenix eyes revealing surprise.
Originally, she had an intuition and felt that Xu Nian could succeed.
In fact, she herself was somewhat incredulous.
After all, controlling the Evil Extermination Sword Array was extremely difficult.
Yet, unexpectedly, Xu Nian had really succeeded.
At this moment, Luo Bing's feelings were somewhat complex.
She was both happy for Xu Nian's control over the Evil Extermination Sword Array, and her emotions were also a mix of tense and complicated.
After all, she had once made a vow.
As long as someone mastered the Evil Extermination Sword Array and killed the Sea Demon King for her,
she would marry him.
Now, Xu Nian had taken control of the Evil Extermination Sword Array.
This equated to fulfilling half of her pledge.
"Buzz!"
Just then, Xu Nian directly controlled the Evil Extermination Sword Array, gathering the more than a thousand sharp swords into the storage ring.
And that golden colossal sword transformed into a streak of light, zipping into the palm of Xu Nian's hand.
From the mark left by this golden sword and the information it held,
it was clear that this golden sword was the Evil Extermination Sword.
This sword contained terrifying power, power that was sufficient to slay individuals at the Supreme Battle Emperor Level.
"Swish!"
After putting away the Evil Extermination Sword Array, Xu Nian dashed towards Luo Bing's direction.
Upon seeing Xu Nian flying toward her, Luo Bing's pretty face immediately tensed.
"Don't worry, the words I said earlier still hold; I will not ask you to do anything. I will do my utmost to fulfill your desire for revenge," said Xu Nian to Luo Bing.

Luo Bing was taken aback.
She hadn't expected Xu Nian to say such a thing.
In fact, even if Xu Nian had really made some requests, she would have agreed.
But as Xu Nian had made no demands at all, it left her feeling somewhat disappointed inside.
Could it be that she wasn't pretty enough, and that's why Xu Nian didn't take an interest in her?
Xu Nian was unaware of Luo Bing's thoughts at the moment.
If he knew, he might feel both amused and frustrated.
"Congratulations to Brother Xu Nian, I didn't expect you to really master the Evil Extermination Sword Array. You are the first person in Penglai to control it, aside from our ancestor. Brother Xu Nian, you truly deserve the title of number one genius," said Ji Tianlong with a smile as he flew in from the distance.
"Brother Season is too kind. It's just that my fortune has been good," Xu Nian replied with a smile.
"Good fortune is also a form of strength. Without a certain level of strength, even if one's fortune is great, they might not gain the recognition of the Evil Extermination Sword Array," Ji Tianlong said.
Xu Nian just smiled without further argument.
"By the way, Brother Season, did you come here to see me because something has happened?" Xu Nian looked at Ji Tianlong and asked.
Sure enough, upon hearing Xu Nian's words, Ji Tianlong's expression became serious.
"That's right, something has happened. People from the Sea Demon Palace have come. The Sect Leader instructed me to inform you," Ji Tianlong said.
"People have come? Could it be the Sea Demon King?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.
Luo Bing's gaze also became sharp.
However, Ji Tianlong shook his head.
"No, that Sea Demon King is cunning to the extreme. He has only sent his top general, the Eight-clawed King, who says he wants to meet you," said Ji Tianlong.
On hearing this, Xu Nian's brow furrowed.
He had previously sent a message to the Green-Scaled Storm Fish King, explicitly asking for the Sea Demon King to come in person.
He did not expect the Sea Demon King to still not show himself, merely sending his subordinate instead.
What does this mean?
Could it be that he wants this Eight-clawed King to kill him?
"Brother Xu Nian, be careful when you meet him. This Eight-clawed King is infamously fierce, and judging by their stance, it seems they have harmful intentions towards you," Ji Tianlong warned.
Xu Nian nodded in acknowledgment.
Yet there was not a hint of fear in his eyes.
Before obtaining the Evil Extermination Sword Array, he might have felt some trepidation.
But now, with the Evil Extermination Sword Array in his possession, he would not fear even if the Sea Demon King himself appeared.
"Let's go. Let's take a look," Xu Nian said to Ji Tianlong.
Although he had promised Luo Bing to kill the Sea Demon King,
for the sake of the Spirit Pill, he would still choose to first transact with the Sea Demon King.
If he could get the Spirit Pill, that would be best.
If he couldn't, Xu Nian would only have to resort to taking it by force.
Ji Tianlong nodded, then led the way ahead, flying toward one direction of the island.
Xu Nian followed close behind, moving lightly, not falling behind Ji Tianlong in the slightest.
After hesitating for a moment,
Luo Bing promptly followed suit.
The disciples also ran off out of curiosity, toward the direction Xu Nian and the others had left for.
Soon, Xu Nian and the others had reached the edge of the island.
There was a huge platform there.
A section of the Formation on the platform had been temporarily opened up.
Standing on the platform were the Penglai Sect Leader and several Elders of Penglai.
Opposite them stood a middle-aged man dressed in a red robe.
However, his appearance was somewhat odd
because he actually had eight arms.
Four on each side, it gave off an eerie feeling.
At the moment, all eight arms were behind his back, his neck slightly raised as he paced on the platform.
He exuded an air of extreme arrogance and impoliteness.
It seemed as though he didn't put the Penglai Sect Leader in his eyes at all.
Behind him stood a row of Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals.
Indeed, actual Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals.
Each of these Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals held a long spear, had the body of a human, but the head of a Demon Beast.
They looked extremely odd and bizarre.
"Whoosh!"
As Xu Nian and the others landed on the platform,
both the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals and the eight-armed man turned their gazes toward Xu Nian.
"Are you Xu Nian?" the eight-armed man asked unceremoniously.
Xu Nian glanced at the middle-aged man.
He discovered that this man was actually of the Peak of Nine-star Demon Emperor level of strength.
His aura was only slightly weaker than that of the Penglai Sect Leader.
"That's right, I am Xu Nian. You must be the Eight-clawed King!" Xu Nian replied with neither servility nor overbearing pride.
The Eight-clawed King frowned slightly when he heard Xu Nian's tone.
"Since you are Xu Nian, then come with us. The Sea Demon King wants to meet you," the Eight-clawed King said arrogantly.
Having said this, he turned to leave.
"Meet me? Why should I go with you? The message I previously sent was for the Sea Demon King to come to me," Xu Nian said.
He did not move a step.
Not showing any sign of wanting to go with the Eight-clawed King.
"Hmph, kid, the Sea Demon King sent me to bring you back; it's not up to you whether you go or not. If you don't come with me willingly, then I will have to kidnap you by force," the Eight-clawed King said arrogantly.
"I think you're mistaken. This is Penglai. Do you think you can take me away and the Sect Leader would agree?" Xu Nian retorted with a sneer.
Upon hearing Xu Nian's words, the Penglai Sect Leader initially froze.
Then he began to smile wryly, his gaze towards Xu Nian turning helpless.
He had intended to stay out of the matter but hadn't expected Xu Nian to be so cunning,
directly dragging him into the situation.
