Chapter 98
Xiao Chen walked over and kept the Fire Lion Inner Core. Now was not the time to consume and refine the Fire Lion Inner Core. If Xiao Chen did not make any preparations and directly consumed the Sixth Grade Fire Lion Inner Core, Xiao Chen would be able to report to the King of Hell immediately.
The inner core of a Tier 6 Fire Lion could be taken casually, but Xiao Chen had never taken an inner core of a wild beast that was higher than Tier 5. He had once taken an inner core of a Tier 5 wild beast, and it was the inner core of a Wood Deer, which was a herbivore with a mild temperament. At the same time, he had drunk a cup of juice made from a variety of rare herbs that could neutralize the violent nature of the wild beast.
Not to mention the grade of the Fire Lion Inner Core, just the Fire Lion Inner Core’s Berserk Attribute was already very shocking. Furthermore, it was a high-grade Sixth Grade Inner Core. The danger of consuming a Sixth Grade Fire Lion Inner Core was not any lower than swallowing a desolate sword!
Therefore, Xiao Chen had to make sufficient preparations before he dared to use this Desolate Beast Inner Core.
Actually, there was another way to deal with a Sixth Grade Fire Lion Inner Core. That was to request and pay a huge sum of money for an Alchemy Master or Alchemy Grandmaster to refine it into a Sixth Grade Desolate Elixir. This way, it would be safer and the effects would be much better.
However, Xiao Chen did not know any Alchemy Master, much less an Alchemy Grandmaster of a higher grade. Even if he knew an Alchemy Grandmaster, he did not have the money to ask them for help. Moreover, Alchemy Masters and Alchemy Grandmasters were extremely rare. They had strange temperaments. Even if you had the money, they might not accept it.
After keeping the Fire Lion Inner Core, Xiao Chen picked up the Fifth Grade Desolate Sword and casually stuck it into the strap on his calf. If one did not look carefully, it would be hard to notice that there was a short sword hidden there.
“Du, du, du!”
Xiao Chen walked down the stairs with heavy footsteps. When he reached the first floor, he went out to the courtyard and started practicing his swordsmanship. The heavy wooden sword was swung around vigorously by him. The air whistled, accompanied by a series of explosive sounds. The imposing manner was extraordinary!
“Young Master Xiao Chen!
Young Master Xiao Chen! ”
Xiao Chen had only practiced his swordsmanship for less than 30 minutes when Military Kill and Destroy Kill came from outside the courtyard.
“Xiu!”
A hint of joy appeared on Xiao Chen’s cold face. He didn’t answer, but turned into a black shadow and rushed out of the courtyard. Sure enough, he saw an excited Army Breaker standing outside, but he didn’t see Dongfang Qingwu.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes. Then, he asked doubtfully, “Senior Sha, have you found Miss Dongfang?”
“Erm, there’s no news of Miss Dongfang yet. However, this subordinate has brought another piece of great news. The Sha Family has purchased a stalk of Dragon Heart Grass!” Army Breaker Kill was stunned for a moment before he excitedly told Xiao Chen the important news he had brought.
“What?
Dragonheart Grass!
Are you sure? ”
Xiao Chen was inattentively listening at first, but when he heard the words’ Dragonheart Grass’, his spirit was roused, and his face was filled with excitement. He rushed up to grab Military Kill Ripper’s arm and asked in ecstasy.
Army Kill Ripper felt the pain from his arm being grabbed by Xiao Chen, but he didn’t try to break free. He grinned and said, “It’s true!
It’s Third Elder who asked me to inform you … ”
“That’s great!
Where’s the Dragonheart Grass now?
Let’s go!
Bring me to the Clan Head of the Sha Family! ”
Xiao Chen interrupted Military Kill Ripper eagerly. He sheathed the wooden sword on his back, grabbed Military Kill Ripper’s arm, and ran towards the Sha Family’s backyard.
Military Kill Ripper was excited when he saw Xiao Chen’s excitement. However, he wouldn’t bring Xiao Chen to the Sha Family’s backyard because all the important figures of the Sha Family were currently in the front courtyard’s meeting hall. That included the newly purchased Dragonheart Grass.
Therefore, he grabbed Xiao Chen and ran towards the meeting hall. As he ran, he explained, “The Clan Head of the Sha Family and the Dragonheart Grass are currently in the meeting hall in the front courtyard. Follow me!”
Xiao Chen was slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted and followed Military Kill Ripper. He had been waiting for this day for almost three months and couldn’t wait any longer. Now that he finally heard that the Dragonheart Grass was located, how could he not be excited?
Not ecstatic?
Right now, he wished that he could grow two more legs so that he could run faster.
Even though the Sha Clan was huge, it only took a short while to run from the left courtyard to the front courtyard’s meeting hall. Right now, Xiao Chen had already rushed into the Sha Clan’s meeting hall with Military Kill Ripper following closely behind.
Something wrong with the atmosphere?
Once Xiao Chen entered the meeting hall, he felt that the atmosphere wasn’t good and was a little oppressive. He took a glance at everyone and noticed Heaven Kill Ripper sitting on the host’s seat with an expressionless face.
On the lower left were Dragon Kill, Tiger Kill, and Wolf Kill. The first two had gloomy expressions while Wolf Kill’s expression was indifferent and dignified.
On the lower right were Regretless Kill, Extraordinary Kill, Ruthless Kill, and Speechless Kill. These four had awakened the Berserk God Bestowment and were the most outstanding descendants of the Sha Clan. Naturally, they were highly valued and nurtured by the Sha Clan.
Right now, the three young masters were looking at Xiao Chen coldly while Speechless Kill looked at Xiao Chen with a strange and complicated expression.
Even though Xiao Chen felt that something wasn’t right, he couldn’t be bothered anymore. He had to obtain the Dragonheart Grass. Even if … he had to snatch it, he had to do it!
Hence, he walked over to Heaven Kill Ripper with a grim expression and stood ten feet in front of him. He cupped his fists and spoke in a serious tone, “Clan Head Sha, I heard from Senior Military Kill that the Sha Clan had purchased the Dragonheart Grass. Is that true?”
“Clan Head Sha?
You are still asking me to kill the Clan Head now?
Xiao Chen, you have been in the Sha Clan for almost a month, right?
Are you still not used to the identity of a Young Master of the Sha Clan?
You should address me as Grandpa. Haha! ”
When Heaven Kill heard how Xiao Chen addressed him, his grizzled brows knitted together. When he spoke towards the end, his wrinkled face revealed a slight smile as though he was displaying his benevolence as an elder.
“This … Clan Head Sha, if we are talking about age, I can address you as Grandpa. However, my surname is Xiao, and I am not a young master of the Sha Clan. I hope Clan Head Sha can understand.”
Xiao Chen didn’t expect that Heaven Kill Ripper would talk about this topic with him. For a moment, he was at a loss for words. He muttered to himself for a moment before continuing the topic.
He still didn’t admit that he had the bloodline of the Sha Clan. Unless his grandfather, Xiao Batian, personally told him that he was a member of the Sha Clan, he wouldn’t believe it.
When Heaven Kill Ripper heard how stubborn Xiao Chen was, the smile on his face vanished. His expression became extremely dignified as he spoke in a deep voice, “Xiao Chen, it doesn’t matter if you admit that you are a member of the Sha Clan or not. The fact that you know the Berserk Godhood Bestowment is an unchangeable fact. In the entire Slaughter God Tribe or even the entire Qilin Kingdom, only our Sha Clan knows the Berserk Godhood Bestowment. Therefore, you must have the bloodline of the Sha Clan!”
“Qilin Kingdom?
What about outside the Qilin Kingdom?
The Wilderness God Continent is boundless. It is hard to guarantee that other places wouldn’t have the Berserk Godhood Bestowment, right?
Let’s not talk about this first. Kill the Clan Head, can you give me the Dragonheart Grass?
Other than serving the Sha Clan for three years, you can change it. How about it? ”
Xiao Chen said patiently. In his heart, he was very conflicted with the identity of the Sha Clan’s young master. On the surface, the three young masters of the Sha Clan were living in harmony, but in their hearts, they were scheming against each other. Although he had a cold personality, his eyes were as bright as snow. He wouldn’t care about these matters. If it didn’t concern him, then it would be a different story.
“Impudent!
Xiao Chen, I’m giving you face, but you don’t want it. My father is so concerned about you, but you don’t care about it?
Do you really think you are a treasure?
The Sha Clan doesn’t have a descendant like you!
You also don’t deserve to be a member of the Sha Clan! ”
When Heaven Kill Ripper saw Xiao Chen’s “vile” attitude, he couldn’t stand it anymore. Before Heaven Kill Ripper could speak, he angrily rebuked Xiao Chen. After a pause, he sneered, “You want the Dragonheart Grass?
Do you think the Sha Clan will give it to an outsider?
Dream on!
Hehe! ”
As soon as Heaven Kill Ripper opened his mouth, the atmosphere instantly turned cold. Unexpectedly, Heaven Kill Ripper didn’t shout at Heaven Kill Ripper like he did the first time they met. He only stared expressionlessly at Xiao Chen, and no one could tell what he was thinking.
Tiger Kill Ripper and the three Sha Clan’s young masters sneered even more. If even Heaven Kill Ripper didn’t protect Xiao Chen, then Xiao Chen would be seeking his own death!
The four of them had been waiting for this moment for a long time. A mountain brat was delusional enough to ride on their heads and piss on them. He was simply courting death!
