The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1208 Chicken Flavor, Crisp and Crunchy

...

About half an hour later, Madam Zhuqu brought Ling Feng to a bamboo forest on the northern outskirts of Tianhuang City.

Deep inside the bamboo grove stood an old, neglected temple. The statues of the enshrined protectors had long since fallen apart.

Madam Zhuqu sat down on a meditation cushion in the center of the temple. She spoke with a calm tone. "Young Master Long, please wait a moment. The others should arrive soon."

Ling Feng nodded. He added, "I do not know how far the secret realm is from here. Four days from now, I must take part in the Tianlan Sea Token Tournament. Time is tight. If the journey is too long, I hope you can wait four more days before we depart."

"It is not far. With our cultivation, the trip will take at most three days!"

Madam Zhuqu answered without emotion.

"That will not be a problem."

Ling Feng leaned against a stone pillar and closed his eyes to rest.

The wait did not last long. Before much time passed, a bald man carrying a large sword arrived as promised. His name was Yang Xiong, known as the "Bald Blade Emperor".

His name sounded unpleasant, yet as a Human Emperor, his strength could not be underestimated.

Next came a barbarian woman dressed in an unusual style, covered in silver ornaments. Her eyes were green like a viper's.

A thin veil covered her face, concealing her age. She wore spider silk gloves said to control poisonous insects. She was also a Human Emperor and was known as the Blood-Hand Venom Emperor.

Last to appear was a swordsman in a blue robe. He flew in from the horizon. Ling Feng's pupils tightened.

"It's him!"

The man was the mysterious expert who had taken part in the Tianlan Sea Token Tournament, Shui Wuhen.

Although Shui Wuhen had hidden much of his strength, Ling Feng was still able to tell that this man was far from ordinary.

Since he had been invited by Madam Zhuqu, he must also possess Human Emperor level strength.

"Good. Everyone is finally here."

Madam Zhuqu opened her eyes. Shui Wuhen shifted positions several times and landed firmly inside the ruined temple.

"My apologies for keeping everyone waiting."

Shui Wuhen smiled and offered a fist and palm salute. He appeared modest, yet he was clearly a smiling tiger.

People like him required even more caution.

"Oh, Brother Long is here as well?"

Shui Wuhen noticed Ling Feng and greeted him with an overly friendly tone. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Brother Shui!"

Ling Feng returned a fist and palm salute. His expression remained indifferent. He did not treat the man with any closeness.

"So you already know each other? That will make things easier."

Madam Zhuqu briefly introduced everyone's identity and strength. She then smiled. "Now that we are all here, we can depart."

"Hehe!"

The Bald Blade Emperor, Yang Xiong, gave a cold snort. He spoke without any restraint. "Zhuqu old woman, you brought a boy who has not even reached king-tier. Are you joking?"

The barbarian woman, the Blood-Hand Venom Emperor, showed clear disgust. "Exactly. If you had brought a more handsome young man, I could at least accept that."

Madam Zhuqu replied calmly. "Young Master Long's cultivation is only at the Spiritual Element Realm, yet he has a demonic pet at the demon emperor level. He is also a high-tier alchemist!"

"An alchemist, is he?"

Yang Xiong rested his large sword on his shoulder. "That is barely acceptable!"

The Blood-Hand Venom Emperor was not satisfied. "He is an alchemist? I want to see how capable he truly is."

She took out a poisonous insect and grinned. "Fat boy, if you dare eat this insect and suppress the poison, I will reluctantly acknowledge you."

"Jade Moth Larva!"

Ling Feng looked at the insect in her hand. It appeared like a piece of warm jade. In truth, this kind of poisonous creature was extremely deadly and could turn anything it touched into jade.

If someone swallowed it, even a Human Emperor would likely become a jade statue.

"You have sharp eyes. Well then, do you dare or not?" The Blood-Hand Venom Emperor smiled again.

"If you were not wearing the Spider Emperor gloves, you would not dare hold a Jade Moth Larva so casually. A small thing like this cannot trouble me."

Ling Feng gave a carefree smile. He reached out, picked up the insect and tossed it into his mouth. He chewed a few times then smiled. "Chicken flavor, crisp and crunchy!"

"..."

The Blood-Hand Venom Emperor's smile slowly disappeared. Shock took its place.

"How is that possible?"

She knew the terror of the Jade Moth Larva well. Even she would not dare swallow it without an antidote.

This kid was undoubtedly a high-tier alchemist.

Moreover, he was very likely a poison master as well.
