Chapter 324: More or Less a Retard

Chen Ming took his time in opening each sturdy door, “Line up and go right in. Don’t push, don’t cut in line! What did I tell you? Here everyone will get their just deserts!”

Heavenly Court: I’ll push your sister!

Jade Lake: Just deserts my ass!

Chen Ming roamed his eyes over the thousand cell jail, “A cell, uh, a room will be for ten people. Be mindful!”

Chen Ming saw how the meek Jade Lake and Heavenly Court members went in and spoke with a straight face, “You will find an array disk inside. Pour your spiritual power and if you provide enough, the tavern will keep you in total safety. You won’t get out but neither will others get in. Please have faith in my craftmanship! It’s foolproof!”

Heavenly Court and Jade Lake wanted to cry but their eyes have long ran out of tears, Can’t you poke the wound a little less? You want us to imprison ourselves with our own power?

Chen Ming continued, “If I find any still having spiritual power to spare, then you’ll have to forgive me for providing you with unsavory consequences.”

Heavenly Court and Jade Lake were filled with anguish as they powered up the tavern. They found no spiritual power returning, not when the cells were isolated from outside.

Chen Ming saw how all poured in their energy and spoke, “Now remove your imprint from your storage rings and immortal items then throw them outside.”

One Heavenly Court’s member was discontent as he shouted in outrage, “This is extortion!”

Chen Ming waved him off, while also turning him into bits and pieces, “Wealth is to be treasured, but life holds an even greater value. Don’t you think being alive will present you with more hope? Look, everyone, he didn’t value his life. I can only show regret to such people. I do believe you are all people who value life above all else, no?”

“Geniuses such as you will walk the path of greatness once you’re out. Is there are need to kill yourselves?”

Storage rings rained down accompanied by immortal equipment. He made stock of them in his own storage ring, Too many and can’t check them all. I’ll do it once I have everything tucked away!

He saw how inside there were all kinds of treasures, scriptures, and King ranked pills from within the inheritance’s place. His own stuff wasn’t in great number, just a few pills and spirit stones.

As for immortal equipment, almost one from each man.

Now he would have enough to encourage those disciples of his to work even harder. As for the aspect of getting caught, He-he, Immortal Master Chen is a tool refiner. The least he could do was to change their shape, being an immortal tool refiner and all.

He took writing material, along with brushes, and gave each cell a pile, “Write down your cultivation method, scriptures, immortal arts, your everything on these. As long as you cooperate, no harm will come to any living being!”

This torturing for scriptures was the last straw for Yan Shengxiao, “Thank you for before!”

Chen Ming nodded.

“Why are you acting in such a reckless manner? The five factions won’t swallow this!”

“Then let them choke!”

Yan Shengxiao: …

Yan Shengxiao persuaded, “You’re a Star Dragon. If you join the fiends, many fiend Immortal Kings will take you under their wing. You don’t need to go as far as to cut all ties with us like this!”

If Chen Ming was indeed a Star Dragon, he’d agree. I mean look at Yan Shengxiao. She has to have a bigshot safeguarding her. But I’m no Star Dragon!

If this leaked, the situation will turn dire!

Chen Ming felt something was off. Yan Shengxiao never saw me eye to eye, so why the sudden change?

It can’t be that my majestic display caught her heart, right?

Yan Shengxiao’s face flushed, stuttering sweet words, “You’re a Star Dragon, and so am I. If we have an heir, passing down the Star Dragon bloodline, the dawn to the fiend age will arrive. You will become the Fiend Emperor, ruler of the entire fiend race!”

Chen Ming rolled his eyes, already aware of what she had in her sleeve, Poisonous as a snake. Just how did this Holy Enchantress manage to get the holy word assigned to her?

Yan Shengxiao shut her eyes as Chen Ming approached. The fiends held their breaths, “Fairy Star Dragon and Crown Prince Star Dragon are a match made in heaven!”

When Chen Ming got near enough, a dagger slipped in her hand and aimed his neck!

Chen Ming has seen through her evil heart a long time ago. He grabbed her hand and opened the gate with a gesture. Walking behind her, he gave her cute derriere a nice kick to vent her inside the cell!

Chen Ming wasn’t one to ask the I saved you so why are you going after my life? foolish question.

There was no point. He didn’t want to know such a meaningless thing, more like curious to see how long would she cry from this kick.

But Yan Shengxiao never shed a tear, only threw a hateful glance, “You can’t kill me or a day will come when he will kill you!”

Chen Ming ignored her, “You should soon realize just who is in control of your life. Give me the Star Dragon cultivation method and immortal arts and I will spare you!”

Yan Shengxiao laughed enraged, “You think I’ll tell you? What’s the use! Star Dragon cultivated a Martyr method and a Martyr battle art, all laying on the Southern Heavenly Palace’s Alldragon Stele. No one can remember it and no one can write it!”

Chen Ming rubbed his chin, These factions seem to have a way to safeguard their scriptures. No one but the core members are worthy of touching them.

And they won’t come out under torture!

The good news is Tian Bushou might have left such a stele behind. If so, Yan Mountain will at least have one Immortal King cultivation method.

The fiends kept shifting glances between Chen Ming and Yan Shengxiao, incredulous at how things degenerated to this state.

Chen Ming returned a smile, “I am a man, uh… fiend that likes collecting every scripture. I wonder if everyone is willing to share some with me.”

The fiends turned their eyes to Yan Shengxiao. Their meaning, You are the hope of us fiend yet now became enemies. Just what in the hell is going on?

Chen Ming laughed, “Just a minor disagreement, no need to mind her. I have the last say now, are there any complains?”

They all shook their heads, Who’d dare say yes anyway?

“Crown Prince Star Dragon, we will write them for you!”

“Your Highness, you are the hope of us fiends. With you here, the inheritance will belong to us!”

“I only beg that you are kind to Fairy Star Dragon, she doesn’t understand these sensible matters… ”

Chen Ming nodded. If not for needing her alive to control them, he would have struck her down by now!

But I just can’t, for the life of me, fathom why is she so set on killing me!

Is it that she stood for so long on her high horse and now can’t accept any setback?

On the other hand, I can’t remove the possibility that this girl is downright retarded.
