Chapter 856: Chapter 856: Brothers Become Uncles

Upon hearing this, the West Sea Demon Emperor showed a bitter smile:

“Old Dream Demon Emperor, where did you hear such rumors?”

“The Deceiving God Pearl has been completely extinct ever since one was discovered three hundred years ago.”

“If there were any, those Divine Sects from Taicang State would have already trampled down the threshold of our West Sea.”

“Such words are best left unspoken.”

“They would unnecessarily bring trouble to our West Sea.”

Jiang Fan heard these words.

He immediately understood the meaning behind Old Dream Demon Emperor’s words.

Having experienced the rain herself, she knew how unpleasant it was to get wet.

So she wanted to tear away the West Sea’s umbrella, making everyone feel the same discomfort.

“Sister Old Dream, what is the Deceiving God Pearl?” Jiang Fan asked softly.

The Old Dream Demon Emperor replied, “Three hundred years ago, the then Crown Prince of the West Sea was making a hasty breakthrough and was about to fail.”

“You know what the consequences are if one fails to break through to the Demon Emperor Realm, right?”

Jiang Fan nodded.

Entangled by Evil Qi, it would be difficult to ever step into the Demon Emperor Realm again in one’s lifetime.

Concubine Yunxia was a living example of this.

If not for the Green Crane Master’s Heart Calming Lotus Silk Duster, she would have had no hope of reaching the Demon Emperor in this life.

“The Crown Prince was on the verge of failing his breakthrough to become a Demon Emperor.”

“So he took out a Magical Treasure called the Deceiving God Pearl.”

“Then, the breakthrough paused!”

“After three months of preparation, he resumed the breakthrough and finally entered the Demon Emperor Realm.”

What?

Jiang Fan widened his eyes.

“Are you saying that breaking through to the Demon Emperor Realm can be paused?”

“Is undergoing a Heavenly Tribulation such child’s play?”

If it weren’t for the serious tone of the Old Dream Demon Emperor, he wouldn’t have dared to believe it could be true.

Could such a serious and dangerous event like Heavenly Tribulation actually be forcibly paused?

The Old Dream Demon Emperor nodded lightly and said earnestly:

“I know you don’t believe it, at first, I didn’t either.”

“But it’s recorded in the Sea Calendars of the Four Seas.”

“The Deceiving God Pearl never appeared before, nor has it been born again after.”

“In the thousands of years of history of the Four Seas, this was the only one.”

“Its name was given by the Demon Emperor of that time.”

“Deceiving Heaven, deceiving heaven, deceiving the gods.”

“This pearl actually accomplished it!”

The tone of the Old Dream Demon Emperor carried a trace of disbelief.

“This pearl not only caused the Heavenly Tribulation to temporarily dissipate but also preserved the breakthrough opportunity within the body of the challenger at all times.”

“Do you understand its value now?”

Jiang Fan’s heart pounded wildly.

It’s even more precious than six Protective Night Pearls!

The opportunity to break through to Nascent Soul, how difficult is it, need I say more?

Jiang Fan was still troubled by the blood debt of the Life Changing Jade Disc.

That Tiger Demon Emperor, close to the Divinity Transformation Realm, dominated a Continent era.

Among what was left, there were only three opportunities to break through to the Demon Emperor in total.

Finally, there’s the bounty from the Qintian Bureau, an ancient giant in exchange for a chance to break through to Nascent Soul.

Besides, he hadn’t heard a word about a breakthrough opportunity to Nascent Soul.

Yet, this Deceiving God Pearl.

It can actually temporarily retain the opportunity when a breakthrough is about to fail?

This is too heaven-defying!

It’s equivalent to having two chances for one opportunity!

If one attempt fails, pause immediately.

Wait until you are fully prepared and then attempt the breakthrough again.

Jiang Fan’s heart was moved.

He looked at the West Sea Demon Emperor and said, “West Sea Demon Emperor, junior is willing to exchange for a pill recipe…”

He glanced at the West Sea Crown Prince.

Originally, he intended to exchange it to spare him a beating.

But now… who is the West Sea Crown Prince anyway?

“Exchange for the Deceiving God Pearl.”

The West Sea Demon Emperor smiled bitterly, “Young Master Jiang, why are you also listening to Old Dream Demon Emperor’s rumors?”

“Where would our West Sea get such a thing?”

The Old Dream Demon Emperor giggled, “West Sea Demon Emperor.”

“This pill recipe, it’s the recipe for the Cold Cicada Silence Pill.”

“Are you sure you don’t want it?”

What?

The bitter smile on the face of the West Sea Demon Emperor instantly vanished, replaced by shock.

He scanned his surroundings.

He decisively closed the doors of the great hall and set up a segregating water curtain.

“Cold Cicada Silence Pill recipe?”

“Old Dream Demon Emperor, such words shouldn’t be spoken lightly.”

“If it falls into the ears of Sanqing Mountain, who knows what great trouble it might stir up.”

“The matter concerning the East Sea Third Princess is not a distant warning.”

The Old Dream Demon Emperor said, “This pill recipe has been personally verified by the East Sea Demon Emperor.”

“It’s absolutely genuine.”

Hiss!

The West Sea Demon Emperor took a sharp breath.

He immediately understood what that meant.

The Deceiving God Pearl at most allows the Sea Demon Clan to successfully produce one Emperor Realm.

But one more Emperor Realm cannot change the century-long fate of the West Sea being throttled by Sanqing Mountain.

So.

Does the higher value need to be explained?

He gazed at Jiang Fan with fiery eyes and said, “Young Master Jiang, do you confirm this pill recipe is genuine?”

Jiang Fan nodded, “If it is false, the southeast, west three seas, may come to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to find me.”

The West Sea Demon Emperor had no more doubts.

With the East Sea Demon Emperor’s verification in the past.

And the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion as a backer in the present.

Moreover, someone as clever as Jiang Fan, daring enough to make a fuss over such a big matter concerning the Four Seas clans?

The consequences of lying are something he understands more than anyone.

He immediately said, “Very well.”

“Thanks to Little Friend Jiang’s blessing, you brought such an astonishing gift to our West Sea.”

“The Deceiving God Pearl is yours.”

He decisively took out a crystal box that he carried with him.

Inside was a reddish round pearl that looked like jade.

It contained strange vortices flowing within it.

It resembled some kind of text, yet also looked like inscriptions, and upon close inspection, seemed like a type of trajectory.

In short, it was very mysterious.

Jiang Fan was excited.

He decisively wrote down the pill recipe and handed it to the West Sea Demon Emperor.

The latter held the recipe and also compared it with the one handwritten by Yizhu Demon Emperor in Old Dream Demon Emperor’s possession.

After confirming that it was identical, he burst into loud laughter.

“Those bastards from Sanqing Mountain.”

“Our West Sea finally doesn’t have to look at your faces anymore!”

Then.

He called the West Sea Crown Prince to his front and struck his chest:

“You brat!”

“Befriending Young Master Jiang is the greatest contribution you’ve made to the West Sea in this lifetime!”

“I’ll spare you regarding the Divinity Transformation Relics matter.”

“In the future, maintain good relations with Young Master Jiang, and focus less on women!”

The West Sea Crown Prince felt as if he had been granted amnesty and quickly clasped his fists towards Jiang Fan:

“Brother Jiang, your life-saving grace is beyond repayment!”

“Let’s keep in touch often in the future.”

The Old Dream Demon Emperor glared at him.

Upon hearing he wanted to keep in touch with Jiang Fan, she was even more reluctant.

With a turn of her beautiful eyes, she said, “I say, West Sea Crown Prince, don’t you think you should change your form of address?”

“Jiang Fan is the sworn brother of both me and Yizhu Demon Emperor, if you also call him brother, wouldn’t that put you on equal footing with us?”

“Then wouldn’t your father, we have to address him as an elder?”

Upon hearing this, the West Sea Demon Emperor.

Immediately kicked the West Sea Crown Prince, “Unobservant fool.”

Then, he also clasped his hands toward Jiang Fan and said, “Little Friend Jiang, if you don’t mind.”

“Let’s also become sworn brothers.”

Although he didn’t know why both Old Dream and Yizhu Demon Emperors accepted Jiang Fan as a sworn brother.

But these two are shrewd characters.

They wouldn’t do anything without benefits.

It would be a mistake not to form a brotherhood.

Jiang Fan naturally had no objections.

He immediately raised his cup and said, “I toast…”

Speaking of which, he still didn’t know the title of the West Sea Demon Emperor.

Even the Old Dream Demon Emperor always called him “West Sea Demon Emperor, West Sea Demon Emperor,”

As if avoiding mentioning his title.
