Chapter 158: The Arrival of Deshun County King, Selection of Judges
Translator: 549690339
In this month, the most dangerous thing was the attack of the Blood Wolf Frost Python.
Other than that, there was no danger. There were attacks from demon beasts, and the strongest was only a demon general. They did not pose any threat to Chen Cheng.
Yang Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
Of course, they still had to guard the city walls every day. After all, it concerned Chen Cheng’s comfort. Even if the situation was slightly better, he could not let his guard down.
On the first day of the next month, Yang Chen was on the city wall. When he was scanning the flood situation, he suddenly saw a black shadow rushing toward Chen Cheng.
Yang Chen narrowed his eyes and secretly mobilized the spiritual energy in his dantian, gathering it in his hands.
When he got closer, Yang Chen finally saw what the black shadow was.
An eagle-type demon beast that was dozens of meters long was emitting a powerful aura of a demon king. On the head of this powerful demon beast stood a tall and straight figure.
“Master!”
When the black shadow approached, Chen Yang saw the person standing on it. This person was none other than Deshun Prince.
“Disciple, how is Chen Cheng’s situation?”Jumping onto the city wall, the Deshun Commandery Prince put his natal subdued beast into his subdued beast bag and looked at Chen Yang with a smile.
“Replying to Master, Chen City is still relatively safe. Although there were demon beasts attacking the city, with the joint efforts of the people of Chen City, they successfully defended Chen City.”Yang Chen said.
When Deshun Commandery Prince heard this, he nodded.” That’s right. It’s good that Chen City is safe.”
“Disciple, 1 came here to discuss something with you.”
“You want to discuss it with me?” Chen Yang looked at Deshun Commandery Prince in confusion.” Master, what can I do for you?””
“It’s like this. The royal family’s ancestor thinks that it’s not a good idea to let the demon emperors continue to cause trouble, so he plans to send people to stop them.”
Chen Yang looked at Deshun Commandery Prince in shock.” Master, you mean that you want me to stop the Demon Emperor?”
“How is that possible?” The Deshun Commandery Prince glanced at Chen Yang.” Only the Patriarch can persuade the Demon Emperor personally. No one else can.””
“Moreover, the Patriarch has already looked for these demon emperors, and they have agreed to resolve this peacefully. After all, it is not a good idea to continue fighting like this.”
Hearing this, Yang Chen heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that he was not asked to persuade the Demon Emperors. If he was asked to persuade them, Yang Chen was really afraid that these Demon Emperors would swallow him alive.
“Then, what else does Master need my help with?”Yang Chen asked.
“Don’t be anxious. Let me finish first.”
“Although those demon emperors settled peacefully, no one could convince the other party to listen to their own choice.”
“In the end, the ancestor proposed a plan. They would send out their bloodline descendants to fight in the arena. The final winner would be able to take the treasure they were fighting for.”
“These demon emperors naturally wouldn’t think that their bloodlines were weaker than the other party’s, so they didn’t refuse.”
“However, the judge will be us humans.”
Chen Yang had already guessed the purpose of Deshun Commandery Prince’s visit. He immediately looked into Deshun Commandery Prince’s eyes.” Master, do you mean to let me be the referee?”
“That’s right.” The Deshun Commandery Prince nodded.” Of course, we can’t judge them for free. After all, we’ve given up the fight for the treasure. These demon emperors naturally have to compensate us.”
“And these demon emperors value their reputation very much. If they reward us directly, wouldn’t it show that they’re afraid of our royal family’s ancestor?” “Therefore, using the opportunity of this referee, these demon emperors will give some treasures to compensate the royal family.”
“Of course, the royal family will also leave some benefits for the judges. The royal family may not care about these benefits, but to your Chen family, they are already very precious.”
“That’s why I recommended you to participate in the referee selection.”Deshun Commandery Prince said.
“Selection?” Chen Yang looked at Deshun Commandery Prince.” Master, you mean that we still have to go through a selection before we can be the judge.”
“That’s right.” Deshun Commandery Prince nodded.
“What is the content of the selection?” Yang Chen asked.”
“Count the pearls.”
“Counting pearls?” Chen Yang was a little confused by the situation. He immediately looked at Deshun Commandery Prince.” What does this mean?”
“I mean it literally, but don’t think it’s simple. This pearl is produced by the Clam Emperor, one of the nine great demon emperors.”
“Moreover, the spiritual energy contained in it is restrained, making it extremely difficult to detect the fluctuation of spiritual energy. In addition, other pearls also carry spiritual energy, which will disturb your judgment.”
“In addition, the time given to you is very short. It won’t be easy to count how many pearls there are.”Deshun Commandery Prince said.
After listening to Deshun Commandery Prince’s explanation, Chen Yang knew that counting pearls was not as simple as it seemed.
It had extremely high requirements for reaction and judgment, which was in line with the referee’s requirements.
After making up his mind, Yang Chen asked,”Master, how many judges are left behind? When is the selection?”
“The selection will be held in three days. As for how many judges will be left behind, according to our discussion, we have decided to leave five judges behind.”
“There are a total of 30 candidates for the judges this time. They were all recommended by the various major factions.”Deshun Commandery Prince said.
“Don’t worry, Master. This is related to whether the Chen family can obtain any benefits. I naturally have to treat it with caution.”Yang Chen smiled.
Hearing Chen Yang’s words, the Deshun Commandery Prince nodded.” It’s good that you know. Also, since I’m here, I’ll help you clean up the nearby demonic beasts.””
When Chen Yang heard this, his eyes flashed with joy and he quickly said,”Thank you, Master!””
“What are you thanking me for? It’s what I should do.”
Immediately, under the lead of Deshun Commandery Prince, the two of them completely cleared out the demonic beasts within a hundred miles of Chen City.
He wouldn’t have known if he hadn’t cleaned it up, but once he did, Yang Chen was shocked.
There was actually a late-stage Demon Venerable demonic beast within a hundred miles of Chen City. If it were not for the arrival of Deshun Commandery Prince, Chen City might really have been lost.
Immediately, Chen Yang thanked him profusely, while the Deshun Commandery Prince looked as if he didn’t care.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for the selection of judges.
Early in the morning, Chen Yang followed Prince Deshun to the location of the selection. The location was none other than the river that corresponded to Song City.
Song City.
The once largest city in Nanyang was now destroyed by the flood. Broken buildings and trees floated on the water, telling the world that there was once a city here.
“De Shun, you’re late.” Just as Chen Yang was feeling sad, a voice suddenly entered Chen Yang and De Shun Commandery Prince’s ears.
“Who is it?”
Yang Chen looked over and saw an old man with a young man looking at him with a smile.
“Prince De, you came too late.’The Deshun Commandery Prince laughed.
King De, so this old man was the only one word king in Da Qian.
Yang Chen nodded, his eyes shining..
