Chapter 2394 - 2397: The Dragon Emperor’s Frustration at Failing to Obtain the Three Divine Artifacts

And almost at the instant when the countless Sea Demons around Shen Qiang flashed their weapons, the beautiful and articulate Yu Wenzi, who was skilled at playing all musical instruments and following behind Shen Qiang, had eyes full of horror.

Because almost simultaneously, at least a thousand fierce and terrifying Great Sea Demons appeared around the sunken ship. As if that wasn't scary enough, several gigantic and ferocious sea monsters charged forward.

"Watch out!"

Yu Wenzi cried out in alarm, her beautiful eyes wide with shock.

Her previously crisp voice, like an oriole singing among green willows, seemed utterly silent amidst the bubbles and seawater.

Boom!

The gigantic sea monster charged forward ferociously, its sharp teeth as large as elevator doors.

"Oh no!" Seeing Shen Qiang standing in the water with no reaction, Yu Wenzi raised her delicate eyebrows. With a pull of her hand, a strange long flute appeared in her grasp.

"Shen Qiang's clearly scared stiff, but he can't die now. If he dies, I'll be doomed to perish here as well."

Thinking this in her heart, Yu Wenzi, with her brows furrowed, felt the mysterious energy emanating from the long flute in her hand.

But at that moment, the gigantic sea monster, as tall as a three-story building, suddenly braked hard. Strangely, it began making playful noises, and brought its enormous head close to Jinli Qianning.

Qian Ning smiled, eyes squinting in delight, pressing her hand upon its head. "Little Fish, I remember you! Wow, you've grown so big."

With such a scene, the surrounding Great Sea Demons and Shen Qiang, standing with arms crossed, did not react.

After all, they all knew that Jinli Qianning's ability was to control all sea monsters in the area, so from the moment the sea monsters appeared, nobody had been worried.

However, Yu Wenzi and Ye Guyun were instantly petrified.

The two of them stood dumbfounded, watching the enormous sea monster playing in Qian Ning's hands, their eyes filled with shock.

Meanwhile, the voice of the Sea Demon King Yu Jiang was exceptionally cold and solemn. "Ying Xiu, you'd better take this seriously. The Dragon Emperor's might is not something you can offend lightly. Don't destroy your own future path."

Upon hearing this, Ying Xiu let out a sinister laugh.

"Is it that guy beside you who looks like he could only serve as a toothpick? Rely on him to%..."

Boom!

The Fury suddenly activated, and the fierce Dragon Breath descended dramatically, causing all the Great Sea Demons to tremble, and leaving the sea monsters in fright, forcibly stuffing Ying Xiu's pretentious words back down his throat.

The bizarre moment of silence and tongue-tied pause caused Uncle Gui and numerous elite sea demons to burst out laughing.

Ying Xiu, whose expression was exceedingly dark, glared coldly at Shen Qiang.

"Indeed, there is the aura of the Dragon Emperor, but only those who wield the Three Divine Artifacts are the true Dragon Emperor. So whatever you plan to do here, you're destined not to succeed, unless you reveal the Three Divine Artifacts now."

Upon hearing Ying Xiu's words, Yu Wenzi's beautiful eyes were filled with shock, then astonishment.

Because whether it was Tianzhao earlier or Ying Xiu now, they both coincidentally mentioned the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifact, piquing Yu Wenzi's curiosity about these mysterious items.

But at this moment, Shen Qiang felt inexplicably annoyed.

Seeming to notice that something was off about Shen Qiang's mood, Uncle Gui quickly spoke up.

"Boss, the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifact were the weapons and armor used by the Dragon Emperor when he conquered the world back in the day. They not only symbolize glory but posses unmatched power. When the Three Artifacts appear, the Four Seas bow; it's not a joke. As the Dragon Emperor said himself back then, only those who possess the Three Artifacts are the true Dragon Emperor, so please don't lose your temper, please restrain yourself!"

Upon hearing Uncle Gui's words, Shen Qiang took a deep breath.

In truth, although Shen Qiang had never known how remarkable the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifact truly were.

However, the recent series of events had indeed left him feeling utterly exhausted.

Without the Dragon Bone, he couldn't control the Four Seas Dragon Palace; without the Dragon Bone, he couldn't do anything about the treasure within the Four Seas Dragon Palace; without the Dragon Bone, he knew the location of the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifact but simply couldn't obtain them.

"You want to see me wield the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifact? Fine, I'll agree to that now. Next time you appear before me, I hope you'll be speaking on your knees." Shen Qiang arrogantly replied with a cold tone.

Those frigid words left the numerous Sea Demons present stunned.

"Next time we meet, he'll reveal the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifact?"

"This Shen Qiang is indeed formidable, not someone to provoke. He not only talks about revealing the Three Artifacts but even demands Ying Xiu to kneel. What arrogance! Does he really think he's the Dragon Emperor?"

"Ugh, this bizarre arrogance is truly terrifying. Our Demon King Ying Xiu is a figure even the Sea Emperor must show respect to! Yet Shen Qiang dares to speak to him like this?"

Amidst the numerous shocked gazes of the Great Sea Demons, Ying Xiu suddenly burst out into sinister laughter, not only laughing but the laughter grew louder and more unrestrained. As his eyes gradually turned sinister, they were filled with a terrifying grimace.

"Interesting. Next time we meet, you'll reveal the Three Divine Artifact to me and make me speak on my knees, huh?"

Upon hearing these words, Shen Qiang's eyes turned cold as he replied, "That's the price you should pay."

"Then why don't you reveal them now? Take them out! I'll welcome the Dragon Emperor with open arms. You can do whatever you like here!" Ying Xiu's expression grew fiercely menacing.

Shen Qiang took a deep breath, feeling helpless as well. If he could reveal the Dragon Emperor's Three Divine Artifacts, wouldn't he have already done so without needing to say a word?

Had it not been for knowing the exact location of the Dragon Bone, Shen Qiang might have given up on being the so-called Dragon Emperor, for it was truly frustrating having treasures he couldn't bring forth, while those who should have been his subordinates remained brazenly pretentious right before him.

"Just wait. Once I get the Dragon Bone, I want to see if you bunch of bastards dare act so audaciously again."

Thinking this but forcing himself to calm down, Shen Qiang took a deep breath and then spoke calmly, "I'll let you see the Three Divine Artifacts, but not now. I came here for something else."

At the moment Shen Qiang said this, Ying Xiu smiled. Then suddenly he stomped his foot, and the box placed beneath his feet rose up.

"It's for this, right?"

Shen Qiang glanced at it only once and his eyes instantly lit up, because before coming here, Shen Qiang had seen the photograph, and this was definitely the box containing the Particle Cannon Core parts and data.

"Indeed."

As Shen Qiang admitted it, Ying Xiu laughed, "Then you can get lost because no one can take away what I like from me!"
