Wei Chen was filled with helplessness regarding the arrangement with the Dark Mage. What on earth was going on?
Even if he wanted grandchildren and hoped for the Dark Magic Royal Family to flourish, it couldn't be done like this, could it?
Although the maidens were all stunningly beautiful and looked identical, making any man’s heart flutter—including Wei Chen's—he had no interest in a relationship that was purely for the sake of continuing a lineage without any emotional connection.
"What are your names?" Wei Chen asked calmly.
"I'm Wind."
"I'm Flower."
"I'm Snow."
"I'm Yueer."
Romance?
These peculiar names once again turned Wei Chen's worldview upside down.
It seemed these four maidens were specially cultivated by the Dark Mage to help the Dark Magic Royal Family expand, right?
Wei Chen couldn't distinguish the appearances of the four maidens, but he could sense their presence. The word "Romance" was not just their names; it was also their aura.
"Alright, it's windy outside. You should go back and rest," Wei Chen said.
The four maidens replied in unison, "The Demon Emperor ordered us to follow you."
"He also ordered you to obey my commands, didn't he?" Wei Chen responded lightly.
They exchanged a few glances and tactfully took their leave.
However, no matter what, these four maidens would accompany Wei Chen. Whether anything would blossom from this depended on their own abilities.
Wei Chen had little interest in them; no matter how beautiful they were, without any emotional connection, what could come of it?
"The old man is really going to great lengths to expand the Dark Magic Clan! Which Fellow came up with such a rotten idea? If I were in the Black Magic Palace, and they came in naked to seduce me, maybe that would work. But on the way to the Dragon Clan, with the constraints of Soul Beast Mountain and the Beast Tide attacking, how could I have such thoughts?"
Wei Chen felt speechless. It was clear that this was a rough person with weak Mental Strength, doing things without thinking, acting purely on impulse. How could that work?
The air was still, but the Warship flew swiftly, creating strong winds. At first, Wei Chen didn't understand why they had to take the Warship instead of flying directly; it would even be faster. But after hearing about the impressive aspects of Shenzhou, he understood.
Although traveling by Warship wasn't fast, it had Face! The most powerful Warship in the magic realm; if they didn't take this opportunity to show it off, would they just let it gather dust at the Black Magic Clan?
Face was very important.
The Dark Mage was diligently practicing the Soul Devouring Technique, but progress was slow. It turned out that people in the magic realm really weren't suited for Mental Strength cultivation. A Dark Mage with such strength was already top-tier in the magic realm, and if he was progressing so slowly, how slow would it be for someone else practicing the Soul Devouring Technique?
"Demon Lotus Emperor, we will soon arrive at the Dragon Clan. When I battle that Dragon Clan Young Master, Ginger Guest, if my Mental Strength isn't strong enough, you help me out by directly strangling his consciousness so he becomes a vegetable for life," Wei Chen transmitted to the Demon Lotus Emperor.
The Demon Lotus Emperor sneered, "Child, are you really so lacking in confidence in your own strength? Your Mental Strength is not much weaker than mine."
Wei Chen chuckled a few times and revealed his intentions. "But I can only simply condense and release my Mental Strength; its effectiveness in killing is limited. If I could use some Mental Strength techniques like you do to unleash true Mental Attack power against my enemies, it would be much easier."
Wei Chen's intention in bringing this up wasn't to ask for help from the Demon Lotus Emperor but rather to provoke him into sharing his Mental Strength techniques! He only had the Soul Devouring Technique for cultivating Mental Strength and it didn't help with releasing or controlling Mental Strength. However, the Demon Lotus Emperor had many Mental Strength techniques akin to martial skills; compared to simply condensing and releasing Mental Strength for killing, using techniques would greatly increase its lethality.
That was what Wei Chen wanted.
The so-called martial skills and techniques were essentially ways of releasing power. The more powerful the technique or skill, the more formidable its release method; with the same energy expenditure, the effectiveness could vary greatly.
Upon hearing Wei Chen's transmission, the Demon Lotus Emperor scoffed, "If you want the Mental Strength control techniques, just ask directly. Why beat around the bush?"
Wei Chen replied, "You could have given it to me long ago; why hide it now?"
"That's right, I don't want to give it to you," the Demon Lotus Emperor refused.
"Why not?" Wei Chen frowned and asked.
The Demon Lotus Emperor said, "I'm afraid you'll become obsessed with the Mental Strength techniques, losing sight of your true path. In the end, you won't advance in the Warrior Realm and will rely solely on Mental Strength techniques to fight. When you encounter an enemy whose combat power matches your Mental Strength, you'll be finished."
"Don't worry. Whether it's Mental Strength, magic power, or any other type of energy, I will cultivate them all. I won't fall behind," Wei Chen assured him.
After a moment of hesitation, several powerful Mental Attack techniques suddenly appeared in Wei Chen's Sea of Consciousness.
"Train well. I've given you these techniques; the people you need to kill, do it yourself. Don't expect me to intervene. That Red Boy won't help you either. I've made it clear to him that if we keep assisting you, your growth will be very slow. Only by personally experiencing life-and-death battles can you truly become stronger. The path of the strong is fraught with thorns and difficulties; it won't be smooth sailing. Even when faced with setbacks, you must catch up and not fear anything."
"I understand." Wei Chen returned to the Warship's inner chamber and began practicing those techniques. When he faced Ginger Guest, those techniques would be his true weapons!
Two hours later, the Warship flew into Dragon Clan territory, slowly heading towards the central giant city of Dragon City. In front of the Warship was a smaller Dragon Clan Warship responsible for receiving them. That Warship seemed like a toy compared to the Shenzhou, both in size and combat power.
The crew on the Dragon Clan Warship felt quite embarrassed; wherever the Shenzhou passed, the citizens of Dragon Clan gathered to watch in awe. No one even bothered to glance at their own Warship.
The Dragon Clan had long anticipated that the Black Magic Clan would come flaunting their power aboard the Shenzhou, so being a Guide Messenger was a thankless task that no one wanted. In the end, they drew lots and sent a hapless soul for the job.
Another hour later, they arrived at Dragon City.
Every time the Shenzhou "visited," the higher-ups of Dragon Clan felt a headache coming on. In the precious land of Dragon Clan, there was no place large enough to dock such a massive Warship. However, as guests from afar and considering the status of the Black Magic Clan, they couldn't let the Shenzhou stop outside Dragon City; that would be extremely rude.
So as per usual protocol, the Shenzhou hovered above Dragon City...
Hearing such a statement from Muen, Wei Chen couldn't help but chuckle. The Warship hovering above them, casting its shadow, felt like an act of bullying, as if it were relieving itself right over their heads.
Eventually, the Warship came to a slow stop within the confines of the Demon Dragon Palace, occupying a vast expanse of airspace. The Black Magic Clan was wise enough not to position the Warship directly above the Dragon Clan's main hall, as that would have been absolutely unacceptable to them. Just entering the vicinity of the Demon Dragon Palace and blocking out a significant portion of sunlight was already enough to assert dominance.
The significance of arriving on the Warship became apparent for the first time.
Upon seeing the most powerful Warship in the demon realm arrive, the members of the Dragon Clan immediately recognized that the Black Magic Clan had come. Countless people gathered around the Demon Dragon Palace, gazing up in awe at the imposing figure of Shenzhou, all with expressions of fascination.
"Indeed, this is the Black Magic Clan. We in the Dragon Clan could never build something like this, could we?"
"Isn't that obvious? If we could build it, the Demon Emperor would have ordered it to be made at any cost long ago. Why would he let the Black Magic Clan flaunt their power?"
"Is our craftsmanship really that poor?"
"You got it right. Our craftsmanship isn't just lacking; our formation skills are also far behind theirs. That's why we can't create a Warship like Shenzhou. The Demon Emperor once negotiated with the Black Magic Clan to help us manufacture one and offered three times the price, but they flatly refused."
"Yeah, that's true. If I were the leader of the Black Magic Clan, I wouldn't help either! Being unique is what makes it valuable. What do they need money for? Besides, is the Black Magic Clan really short on cash?"
"The Black Magic Clan was once the strongest force in the demon realm; they just had bad luck when they suffered an attack from Soul Beasts that nearly wiped them out. After all these years, they've managed to recover and are now growing stronger than the Dark Demon Clan, posing a direct threat to us in the Dragon Clan."
"What do we care about all that? There's no need for conflict between our Dragon Clan and the Black Magic Clan. Those matters are for higher-ups to worry about; they don't concern us. I just want to get a look at Shenzhou. Even if I can't ride it, just being allowed to visit would be great."
...
Voices of discussion rose and fell like waves; the might brought by Shenzhou was simply overwhelming. It felt less like a mere Warship and more like a moving fortress.
At that moment, Wei Chen stepped forward. Channeling his Mental Strength, he laughed heartily and said, "Friends from Dragon City, I am Black Demon Wei Chen, Young Master of the Dark Demon Clan. This time I've come to your Dragon Clan and am very pleased to witness your prosperity. I overheard your conversation; it seems you all wish to visit Shenzhou?"
With his words propelled by Mental Strength, they reached the ears of hundreds of thousands without fail. His voice wasn't particularly loud, but his Mental Strength was so potent that his words were almost directly transmitted into the ears of those surrounding the Demon Dragon Palace.
There is no one with that kind of ability in the entire Dragon Clan. When hearing the words of Wei Chen, few people think about why he can clearly spread his voice so far and wide. They only care about the identity of Wei Chen and Shenzhou. "Dark Demon Clan Young Master? Tsk tsk, it seems the rumors are true. Dark Demon Clan Young Master is back and wants to fight against our Dragon Clan Young Master Ginger Guest!" "Don't worry about all that. , what you heard from Dark Demon Clan Young Master is that you want us to go up and see Shenzhou?" Sure enough, under the gaze of Dark Mage and Muen Strange, Wei Chen flew out of the Warship , said loudly: "Dear friends, I am now leaving behind a thousand Black Demon Clan Copper Coin. Each copper coin has my MentalStrength imprint on it. It cannot be counterfeited. An hour later, I took the For a copper coin, you can visit Shenzhou for half an hour. What do you think?" "Okay!" "Thank you Wei Chen, Young Master!" There were sounds of surprise, and everyone was excited. . Inside Demon Dragon Palace, a group of high-level officials gathered together, their faces purple and extremely ugly. "That kid is simply weird!" Jiang Han said angrily.
