The middle-aged man smiled wryly and spread his hands. "To be honest, I don't know. I was just instructed to relay your message back to the Sea Emperor. The Sea Emperor personally ordered me to inform you about the four major Sea Emperors."
"Honestly, I find it puzzling as well. I don't understand what the Sea Emperor is trying to achieve."
His attitude was sincere, not like he was lying.
Wei Chen pondered for a moment and began to piece together some clues.
"Alright, you may leave."
Wei Chen commanded the Warship to set off, heading southward.
There were still five hundred thousand miles to go. If the Warship flew the entire way, it would take two days. During full flight, the winds were fierce, and no one could stand on the deck; everyone had to retreat to the inner cabin of the Warship. The Warship would rise and deploy a shield, enveloping the entire vessel to withstand the wind and minimize its impact. As long as someone remained on deck, it wouldn't work.
Initially, Wei Chen intended to fly at full speed, but after Lynn Luyao's suggestion, he changed his mind.
If they traveled too quickly and encountered threats, there wouldn't be enough time to react adequately. The supplies on the Warship were sufficient, but if the Warship were destroyed and surrounded, merely returning would be an extremely difficult journey.
To be safe, the Warship's speed was not fast; it needed six days to reach their destination.
The Demon Lotus Emperor, Wei Chen, Yan Qiqi, and Lynn Luyao gathered together and chatted leisurely.
They had grown numb to the scenery of the Endless Sea; everywhere was just vast expanses of water with little of interest.
The Demon Lotus Emperor looked at Wei Chen and asked, "What does it mean that the Sea Emperor deliberately informed you about the four major Sea Emperors?"
Wei Chen replied calmly, "It must be a form of threat or warning. He wants to tell us not to play any tricks or think about annihilating the upper echelons of the Sea Tribe. Even if our Warship conceals countless powerful beings capable of destroying this Sea Emperor, there are still three other Sea Emperors who will undoubtedly retaliate against us with bloodshed."
"And he probably wants to tell me that the Sea Tribe is very powerful, and my status is not enough to act recklessly in front of them."
Wei Chen's face showed a hint of anticipation. He was eager to see what kind of strength the Sea Emperor possessed. If it was indeed comparable to that of the Dark Mage, then the Sea Tribe's power would surpass that of the Three Great Clans.
However, since a confrontation was unlikely, the Sea Tribe's strength would be significantly weakened upon reaching the sixth level, just as the human race struggled to contend with the Sea Tribe when entering their domain.
Lynn Luyao began to secretly admire Wei Chen. On one hand, it was his imposing demeanor, the kind that bravely faces danger despite knowing the risks. On the other hand, it was his sharp calculations. From just a few pieces of information, Wei Chen could analyze so much and articulate it so well.
This was Wei Chen's remarkable ability, and Lynn Luyao couldn't help but feel impressed.
At this point, Lynn Luyao realized that her role as a guide was somewhat redundant, and the situation was developing in a direction she had never anticipated. She could hardly believe that Wei Chen's goal was to meet the Sea Emperor. What could Wei Chen's purpose in meeting the Sea Emperor be?
Lynn Luyao wanted to ask but felt it inappropriate to speak up, so she remained silent.
The Demon Lotus Emperor smiled slightly after hearing Wei Chen's explanation and said, "You and I are on the same wavelength; I was thinking the same thing."
Wei Chen pouted and replied, "Don't joke around; you can't compare your intelligence to mine. Stop flattering yourself."
The Demon Lotus Emperor scoffed, "In terms of cultivation talent, I admit I'm not as good as you right now, but when it comes to wisdom and strategy, you're still far behind. After all, I once commanded millions of demon creatures."
"That was only in the past; those days are long gone. Don't bring them up to boast again. The fact that you can condense your Time Martial Soul sooner is already quite impressive."
Lynn Luyao couldn't understand the conversation between Wei Chen and the Demon Lotus Emperor. Demon creatures? What were demon creatures?
But she quickly thought that since Wei Chen had fallen into another world and had only recently returned to the Demon Realm, perhaps it was related to their past experiences in another world?
Yan Qiqi showed no interest in the conversation between Wei Chen and the Demon Lotus Emperor. She nestled against Wei Chen, quietly watching him, as she always did.
As time passed, the Warship encountered no disturbances from the Sea Tribe along the way. Occasionally sensing their presence in the waters, Wei Chen remained indifferent. It seemed that the Sea Tribe had received orders from the Sea Emperor to observe rather than provoke. If it weren't for the Sea Demon Emperor's command, those Sea Tribe members would have rushed forward long ago. As they ventured deeper into the Endless Sea, the strength of the Sea Tribe only grew.
Finally, a massive island came into view.
Looking out, Wei Chen saw pavilions scattered across the island, resembling human architecture in many ways.
This island was a vast City-State, surrounded by tall city walls. However, without any formation to support them, these walls were merely for show; they could fly through the air at will. What use were walls like that? In fact, most City-States within the demon realm had walls that served little purpose beyond aesthetics. Only a few City-States were protected by powerful Formation Arrays that provided actual defense, such as the City-State closest to the Endless Sea belonging to the Black Magic Clan.
Walls without formations were merely decorative...
The City-State on this island was enormous, even larger than the capitals of the Three Great Clans.
One could only imagine how vast this City-State was, constructed over an area of tens of thousands of miles.
Upon seeing this City-State, Lynn Luyao exclaimed in surprise, "The architectural style here is quite similar to that of our Red Demon Tribe!"
"Yes, I've noticed that too," Wei Chen replied lightly. "Perhaps the Sea Tribe has grown accustomed to raiding your Red Demon Tribe and has developed a liking for your architectural style? Or maybe they lack their own style and can only mimic what they are most familiar with—the architecture of the Red Demon Tribe."
As they spoke, several hundred members of the Sea Tribe dressed in white robes flew over.
The one at the front had a sinister appearance; though young, he exuded an air of authority.
The person sent by the Sea Emperor to greet Wei Chen likely held a status comparable to his own.
Thus, the identity of that person, Wei Chen, was deduced. Most likely, that individual was the heir of the Sea Emperor, the future Sea Emperor of the South Sea Region.
"The Black Magic Clan really has some nerve to come to our South Sea Region and stir up trouble," the young man said, standing in mid-air and looking down at Wei Chen on the deck of the warship.
Wei Chen sneered, "What a grand entrance. Who are you? I want to see the Sea Emperor, not some insignificant fool."
Since others were being rude, Wei Chen felt no need to hold back.
If others showed a bit of courtesy, Wei Chen would reciprocate even more.
That was his principle in dealing with matters.
Regardless, guests should be treated with respect, but the condescending attitude of this young man left Wei Chen feeling quite displeased.
Upon hearing Wei Chen's words, the young man coldly replied, "What a bold statement. The Dark Demon Clan Young Master truly lives up to his reputation. But I wonder how much skill you really possess?"
"If you want to test your skills, I can play along," Wei Chen said as he flew into the air, stopping a hundred meters away from the young man, his eyes filled with provocation.
At this point, he was even more certain that this young man was indeed the future Sea Emperor; otherwise, he wouldn't be acting this way. It seemed that his actions were also directed by the Sea Emperor behind the scenes.
Wei Chen turned his head to glance at a grand hall in the distance, a slight smile curling at the corners of his mouth.
In the grand hall, a middle-aged man dressed in golden robes furrowed his brow slightly and asked the person beside him, "Can he sense that I am here?"
The person he spoke to was none other than the Sea Emperor of the South Sea Region, Nan Feng.
In the four major sea regions—East, West, South, and North—the surnames of the Sea Tribe were quite similar to those of the human race. However, the four Sea Emperors had unique surnames derived from their respective directions. Sea Emperor Nan Feng had a son named Nanhua, whom he valued greatly. Nanhua was exceptionally talented; at just twenty-eight years old, he had already reached the eighteenth level of cultivation and was deeply favored by Nan Feng. The position of future Sea Emperor would undoubtedly belong to Nanhua.
The people surrounding Nan Feng were all high-ranking officials from the South Sea Region, and they dared not answer his question. The Young Mistress of the Black Magic Clan was somewhat mysterious; could her mental strength be so formidable that she could sense him from such a distance and in hiding?
In the air above, Nanhua sneered as he looked at Wei Chen and said, "You've got guts. If you want to enter South Sea Island, you must first defeat me. Our statuses are comparable; if you can't even beat me, then please go back from where you came and don't embarrass our Sea Tribe."
Wei Chen nodded and replied with a smile, "That sounds good. I like people like you."
Wei Chen meant what he said; he had a favorable impression of Nanhua. This young man was proud but possessed decent strength and wasn't deliberately making things difficult. Their statuses were equal; it was only natural to have a fight. If he won, he could meet the Sea Emperor; if he lost, he would naturally have to go home.
"You've made your intentions clear; I'm going to make my move now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nanhua's body suddenly vanished from his spot, and a powerful iron fist struck towards Wei Chen's heart.
The force of that punch created a strong whirlwind that blew away the strands of hair covering Wei Chen's forehead, revealing his eyes filled with mockery.
In the next moment, Wei Chen unleashed three-tenths of his strength and slammed his fist into Nanhua's chest.
With a loud crack, Nanhua's body flew backward like a cannonball, blood spewing from his mouth.
Meanwhile, Nanhua's fist also struck Wei Chen's heart but did not inflict any damage on him at all.
It was neither painful nor bothersome, completely without pressure.
With a single strike, Nanhua was forced to retreat, looking disheveled, with several ribs broken.
Wei Chen said calmly, "I only used thirty percent of my strength, not even that much. What about you?"
Nanhua's face turned ashen, and with the support of several elders, he flew away to heal his injuries.
Within the Sea Tribe, there were plenty of healing elixirs. As long as one wasn't killed outright, they could recover in a very short time. This was indeed an advantage of the Sea Tribe; if one wasn't dead, they could quickly regain their combat ability and continue fighting.
In terms of ferocity, the Sea Tribe was actually more formidable than the human race on the sixth level of the Demon Realm.
Wei Chen's punch had sent Nanhua flying, leaving the people on the island dumbfounded. Among young people, Nanhua was actually older than Wei Chen; how could he be so easily defeated?
Wei Chen's strength was showcased for the first time before the people of the Sea Tribe. He had effortlessly subdued Nanhua, who held a comparable status.
Lightly clapping his hands, Wei Chen looked again at Sea Emperor Nanfeng in the Pavilion and called out loudly, "Sea Emperor, do you wish to come out and exchange a few moves with me?"
His words carried powerful Mental Strength that resonated throughout the entire island.
The billions of Sea Tribe members on the island were filled with rage simultaneously.
