In the following few days, the merfolk who still remained in the Nether Sea Ancient City gradually left. Clearly, these merfolk might have learned of the Jiuzhou Alliance fleet’s arrival in the Nether Sea Region.

Lin Feng was invited by Bei Xianyuan to go to her place to listen to a musical performance.

Bei Xianyuan is not only beautiful but also skilled in everything from music to chess, calligraphy, and painting, making her undeniably a talented woman.

Bei Xianyuan played a piece titled Ten Sides Ambush. This composition, with its sense of military might and murderous intent, seemed to perfectly match the current situation in the Nether Sea World.

The looming battle between the Jiuzhou Alliance fleet and the Merfolk Clan was on the brink, with many people even heading to the confrontation zone to watch the spectacle.

After Bei Xianyuan finished playing the Ten Sides Ambush, Lin Feng clapped his hands and said, "It’s truly a wonderful piece. But I wonder if this song, Ten Sides Ambush, carries any deeper meaning?"

Bei Xianyuan replied, "The Merfolk Clan has been trapped for over eight million years, greatly depleted in Essence Qi. Now having escaped from the Forbidden God Realm, they also need to restore their clan’s prestige. Defeating the Jiuzhou Alliance warship is a great opportunity to proclaim to the world that the Merfolk Clan has returned!"

Lin Feng said, "Isn’t the cost a bit too high?"

"You might consider that for over eight million years, the Merfolk Clan couldn’t escape from the Forbidden God Realm. Why were they able to escape now? They likely had an extraordinary encounter in the Forbidden God Realm, which gives them confidence now," Bei Xianyuan explained.

Bei Xianyuan is quite a mysterious woman who knows many things unknown to others.

Lin Feng is well aware of this, and now that Bei Xianyuan has said these words, it’s clear they aren’t spoken without reason.

Lin Feng said, "When two tigers fight, one is sure to be wounded! This battle is also something that all the Great Forces in the Nether Sea Region wish to see."

Bei Xianyuan nodded and said, "These forces wish for nothing more than mutual destruction between the Merfolk Clan and Jiuzhou Alliance."

...

The next day, Lin Feng went to the sea region where the battle was occurring. By the time he arrived, the two sides were already in fierce combat.

The Merfolk Clan could command the power of the sea. In the central area of the battle, dense white mist covered the sky, obscuring the view within.

"It’s them..."

Lin Feng saw five cultivators shrouded in black robes.

Although they had transformed into human form,

Lin Feng could still feel a familiar aura.

These five were exactly the five Holy Beast Vengeance that had escaped from the Ninth Level of the Forbidden God Realm.

"If these guys appear here, who knows what terrifying events might occur. It’s best for me to make a quick exit."

Lin Feng quickly left.

Those five Vengeance are terrifying.

Moreover, they are extremely wicked; Lin Feng had seen them devour the life of an entire island, making him dare not linger.

After leaving more than thirty miles away, Lin Feng was attacked. A woman in a black long skirt surged out from the void, dealing a palm strike toward Lin Feng.

Bang!

Lin Feng countered the palm strike, but was directly thrown back.

Wow!

He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face as pale as paper.

The difference in strength was simply too great.

"Damn, who are you? Why attack me?"

Lin Feng glared angrily at the woman before him.

This woman wore a black long skirt and was tall and slender.

Moreover, she was incredibly enchanting.

Lin Feng had never seen such a seductive woman.

Just one glance seemed enough to make one fall into infatuation.

"You released the five Vengeance, causing them to chase me down. Now my power has been knocked from the Heavenly God Realm to the True God Realm, and I wish I could tear you into pieces,"

the woman said through gritted teeth.

"Snake Queen..."

Lin Feng’s scalp tingled, realizing this woman was the Snake Queen transformed.

Now that he carefully sensed her body’s condition.

This woman’s physical state wasn’t very good.

Her aura was chaotic.

Evidently, she had suffered severe injuries.

"Capturing you will let you taste the world’s most painful tortures before I kill you!"

The Snake Queen’s eyes were filled with icy killing intent as she swiftly charged at Lin Feng.

"I have no time to play with you,"

Lin Feng threw out a dozen Divine Artifacts.

Boom...

A dozen incredibly precious items exploded.

The destructive force swept through Heaven and Earth, enshrouding the Snake Queen.

If she were still in the Heavenly God Realm, she would naturally be fearless.

But now, having been severely injured by the five Vengeance, her cultivation level had fallen.

So she dared not withstand the self-destructive power of a dozen Divine Artifacts.

Upon seeing a dozen Supreme Treasures.

The Snake Queen swiftly retreated.

After the explosive energy dissipated.

Lin Feng had long disappeared.

...

A hundred miles away, Lin Feng emerged from the void, activating his Undying Divine Body to heal his injuries.

He then cursed a bit, "That Snake Queen actually survived the pursuit of the five Vengeance. Truly, the heavens have no eyes; this woman is too terrifying. Fortunately, this time I managed to escape her pursuit, but next time may not be so easy. I should return to the Nether Sea Ancient City and see if I can find a way to deal with this woman."

Lin Feng didn’t stop, quickly returning to the depths of the Nether Sea Ancient City.

He went to the auction house to gather information, hoping to find a way to handle the Snake Queen.

Lin Feng met an elder at the auction house named Ma Mingbo. This person was among the cultivators who had once hosted Lin Feng.

Upon hearing that Lin Feng wanted to deal with the Snake Queen, Ma Mingbo smiled and said, "Over the years, countless men have coveted the Snake Queen, wanting to subdue her. Does Brother Lin also have this intention? However, the current Snake Queen is not like she was in the past. Back then, her cultivation wasn’t as strong as now, and there was a possibility of subduing her, though many still failed and met gruesome ends."

"Now the Snake Queen is one of the most powerful loose cultivators in the Nether Sea Region, elevated and untouchable. Who would dare to provoke her?"

"Listen to your old brother’s advice, don’t go seeking trouble with the Snake Queen unless you’re prepared for utter ruin."

Lin Feng couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

What was Ma Mingbo thinking?

Lin Feng lamented inwardly, I’m targeted by the Snake Queen. If I don’t find a way to deal with her, I’m likely to be killed.

Lin Feng said, "I had a conflict with the Snake Queen; she’s fixated on me. I need to find some things for self-defense."

Ma Mingbo said, "Is that so? Being targeted by the Snake Queen is troublesome indeed, but Brother Lin has come to the right place. Recently, someone consigned a treasure at the auction house that might be useful against the Snake Queen."

"Oh? What treasure is so impressive?" Lin Feng was greatly astonished.
