Commanding Wind and Cloud - Chapter 573
Chapter 573: Little Cech (Concubine)
“Comrade, why are you looking at me like that?” Duren Burg smiled at Qian Jin and said, “Could it be that you want to give me more cigarettes?”
Qian Jin gifted Duren Burg a kick on the butt as he replied, “Anything happened these days?”
Duren Burg dodged Qian Jin’s kick and replied in a lazy tone, “What do you think? Just those families that want to flatter you. Oh right! Elemental King Bloodline and the Unkillable King Bloodline also sent demons here.”
Qian Jin stretched his back and yawned. The only reason he sneaked into the Demon Territory was that he needed to steal something from the Unkillable King Bloodline Family. However, his high-profile appearance in the Demon Territory and the promotion the Snake Emperor Pam Honzi and Zence Matten did for Qian Jin gifted him so many unexpected benefits.
“Oh, right!” Duren Burg suddenly said, “You have to pay more attention to your demon girl. If she got mad, she might kill Mensao Six in secret.”
Qian Jin who was walking out of the room froze a little. “Although Lucifer Lucy and Zence Matten are in opposite stance, they shouldn’t be killing each other…” he thought.
“You probably don’t know… Mensao* Six…” Duren Burg laughed, “Using the identity as your close friend, he had been networking with a lot of high-level demon officials…”
“Huh?”
Qian Jin instantly realized what was going on. Zence Matten was a demon in the eyes of others; in fact, he was a low-level demon. Therefore, the act of trying to get information on what was happening in the upper circle by a low-level demon was normal in the eyes of others.
In order to get to the good side of this low-level demon, these high-level demons were willing to tell Zence Matten a lot of information; after all, telling another demon who was the retinue of Lucifer Lucy sensitive information won’t do any harm to the Lucifer Empire.
However, this low-level demon was a fake! When Zence Matten was eating and drinking with those high-level demons, he got information that even the Black Dragon Guards couldn’t get.
Although the information these high-level demons and their retinues told Zence Matten wasn’t that useful in other’s eyes, the Sixth Prince of Zence was great at putting puzzles together; he was able to piece this information together and get a better understanding of the situation.
Lucifer Lucy knew about Zence Matten’s ability; she knew that this human prince who wasn’t great at individual combat was very intelligent and posed a great threat to the demons.
“Kill Zence Matten?” Qian Jin believed that Lucifer Lucy could do something like that; after all, the potential conflict between them was too massive.
“Huh…” Qian Jin sighed, “Let me think of a way to try to get him to quiet down. After all, Lucy is the one who took us in.”
Cech Flet walked out of the yard quietly and Qian Jin knew what he was up to by just looking at him.
In less than an hour, Zence Matten appeared in the yard. He looked messy; his clothes were almost shredded.
“Damn! Cech went crazy?” he breathed heavily, but he was still able to keep up the so-called presence. “He called me over to an alleyway and began attacking me. Fortunately, I ran fast enough,” he said.
“Haha!” Duren Burg was laughing so hard that he hammered the ground. “That is Handsome Cech’s way of warning you. If you keep that up anymore, he will really kill you. You know that except for me and my comrade right here, Cech can defeat others with… Hey! What are you doing? Little Cech! You almost cut me.”
Duren Burg started to run in the yard and shout, “Are you crazy?”
“Who is little Cech**?”
(Please refer to the footnote before continuing)
Cech Felt stared at Duren Burg angrily; it felt like he was going to activate his Fallen Angel Bloodline Battle Form and kill this Hydra if Duren Burg didn’t correct his use of words!
“Comrade, sometimes my pronunciation is a bit off…” Duren Burg replied. He felt like he had been wronged; he only wanted to tease this Fallen Angel a little, but he almost got cut.
“Qian Jin has a little pronunciation problem, but you did it on purpose!” Cech Flet said loudly.
“Damn! WTF?” Duren Burg complained, “We are all men! You are willing to be Qian Jin’s concubine? I just said…”
“Hey, you guys…” Zence Matten looked at those two helplessly and said, “I’m the one who is injured, alright? Can someone bandage me up? Look at my injuries, I almost died.”
Qian Jin took out a jar of ointment and threw it at Zence Matten. “Don’t be too extreme. Otherwise, it is hard for me to talk to Lucy about this.”
“You are right.” As Zence Matten rubbed the ointment over the wounds and watched the fight between Duren Burg and Cech Flet. He replied, “I was thinking that Lucifer Lucy is close to her limit. If I tried to get more information, she might contact the Dark Group and take me out.”
“Look over these two, I have some business I need to take care.” Qian Jin walked out of the yard and reminded Zence Matten, “As long as they won’t kill each other, their identity won’t be exposed, and their limbs don’t get cut off, let them do whatever.”
Zence Matten nodded.
Although everyone appeared calm on the surface, they were all experiencing a ton of pressure. Demons were all around them! If they misspoke or acted incorrectly, none of them would survive! Gathering information and deep thinking was Zence Matten’s way of alleviating that insane pressure.
What Duren Burg and Cech Flet were doing now was also a way of alleviating the pressure.
Among them, Cech Flet was feeling the most pressure. In the last few days since they arrived at the Fallen City, Cech Flet had to force himself to not go and see Princess Eunala; that was enough to make a demon go crazy.
…
Many demons who tried to meet Master Feijing didn’t get to see the famous mixed-blood for several days and the president of the Central Mage Union decided to get thicken his face up and asked for a room in Qian Jin’s place.
The day of the Royal Competition was approaching; if this long night passed, the competition would begin. All the casino and gambling houses opened early and were already taking in bets on which prince and princess would win the whole thing.
Qian Jin blew away the last bit of dust on the model he just built. After days of forging and engraving, he finally built the Magic Conductor he needed. It was fortunate that he wandered in the Demon Territory for a while; otherwise, he wouldn’t have enough material to build it.
Creak…
He opened up the wooden door and the moonlight instantly poured into the room and occupied the darkness.
Qian Jin looked at the elderly demon who was standing outside his door. The large golden robe showed his prestigious status, and the wand in his hand that had a ton of Full-Moon Magic Gems inlaid on it enforced his majestic appearance.
Full-Moon Magic Gems were precious enough, but there were even rarer materials used. Skyline Gold was made into the body of the wand, the runes engraved on it were all done by Rune Masters, and there were also 46 extremely valuable Star Gems inlaid in it.
“You are…?”
“I’m the president of the Central Mage Union, Sutel,” this elderly demon bowed and smiled, “You must be Master Feijing, right?”
“Nice to meet you, President Sutel,” Qian Jin replied and also bowed.
Sutel was a little touched.
Although they were both presidents and Qian Jin should be bowing back to return the respect, Qian Jin had control over five Central Unions and Sutel only had control over one; the difference between them was drastic. In addition, Sutel knew that Jiliu Feijing had the Lucifer Bloodline in him, and arrogance was in his blood.
“Let’s be direct, I can be the president of the Central Mage Union as well, what do you think? President Sutel?”
Sutel who was still in a bowing position was stunned; his body froze completely.
“This opening is too surprising!” he thought.
“This opening is so arrogant! Even if he has a ton of spiritual energy and is able to use Magic Power, it is too arrogant, let alone the fact that he doesn’t have any spiritual energy,” he couldn’t believe his ears.
“President Sutel, do you know of a mage named Gabriella?”
“Of course!” Sutel replied as he confused, “She is the super genius mage in the young generation of mages on the side of Zence. Too bad that we Lucifer Empire doesn’t have one… why did you bring her up?”
Qian Jin was still very direct. “I’m sure you know about Gabriella’s background, right?”
“Nature Elf Bloodline! Too bad she didn’t activate her bloodline…” Sutel praised and sighed at the same time. Then, an envious expression appeared on his face as he continued, “However, this mage who didn’t activate her bloodline is much more powerful than the ones who did.”
“Of course! She is my Senior Sister!” Qian Jin said proudly, “Although she didn’t activate her bloodline, my master used a special technique and ignited the Bloodline Power in her body, resulting in her getting the possible effect of awakening the bloodline.”
“Senior Sister?” the wrinkles on Sutel’s face intensified as he got shocked. He asked in a hurry, “Master Feijing, you said that Gabriella is your Senior Sister?”
“That is right!” Qian Jin recited the paragraph he and Lucifer Lucy prepared without missing a word, “My master has two male disciples and two female disciples. Qian Jin and I are the two male disciples, and Gabriella and my Senior Sister – Hanyue Mubing are the two female disciples!”
“Zence has another genius mage?” Sutel was so shocked that his precious wand almost dropped to the ground.
- Mensao is a Chinese adjective describing someone who is cold on the outside but wild on the inside.
** Little Cech is pronounced very similar to concubine in Chinese, that is why Cech got mad.
