Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou-Chapter 500 - 497 Daddy Says Everything Can Be Roasted
Chapter 500: Chapter 497 Daddy Says Everything Can Be Roasted Chapter 500: Chapter 497 Daddy Says Everything Can Be Roasted In the eastern part of the Ancient Mysterious Realm, there was a vast and boundless desert, and right in its center, a colossal forest.
Every tree in the forest was dozens of feet tall and incredibly sturdy.
At this moment, above the forest, a dense crowd of cultivators was suspended in the air, and occasionally, a group of people would launch an attack on the forest, only to be blocked by a layer of green barrier. Even more, branches shot through the sky, instantly piercing through the bodies of some cultivators.
Streams of green energy surged out of these cultivators’ bodies, sliding along the branches into the great trees.
The cultivators visibly aged at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually perishing, leaving neither flesh nor bone behind.
Chu Xin and others tore through the sky and arrived, standing among the crowd.
Xiao Ling’er spoke up, “This is the Wood Dragon Forest, and so many people have still not broken through its barrier. It seems that most of them must be from the Lower Realm.”
“People from other Lower Realms?”
Wang Lanxi, after hearing this, swept her gaze over the surrounding cultivators, her eyes filled with curiosity.
The Martial Emperor Realm, in any Lower Realm, should be considered the pinnacle of combat power. Those who managed to cultivate to the Martial Emperor Realm were considered as the Heavenly Prides of their eras in all Lower Realms.
She wanted to see if there was any difference between the Heavenly Prides from other Lower Realms and those from Jiuzhou.
However, most of the people were not truly making a move, and only a few were continuously attacking the green barrier, eventually being devoured by the Wood Dragon’s branches and turned to ash.
These people must be just at the early stage to late stage of the Martial Emperor Realm, and not considered very strong within the realm.
But judging from the energy shocks they emitted when attacking the green barrier, the combat power of the Heavenly Prides of the same realm from Jiuzhou should not differ greatly.
Of course, this was compared to the ordinary Heavenly Prides.
These fellows, when compared to Long Shaotian, were far from close, let alone comparing them with the two exceptional grandchildren, Chu Xin and Chu Chen.
At the moment, Chu Xin and Chu Chen were also observing the huge forest below their feet, looking down from their lofty position, they saw that the forest was perfectly square. The closer to the center, the taller and bigger the trees were. The one right in the middle was hundreds of feet tall.
The crowns on their heads had already been put away, after all, that thing was too conspicuous.
Old Zhu Nine, who was by their side, introduced, “Every tree here represents a Wood Dragon, and the largest tree in the center is the Wood Dragon Emperor.”
On the other side, Old Jin Three said, “According to ancient texts, this place was not originally a desert but full of vitality like other areas, flourishing with life. However, with the constant devouring by the Wood Dragons, the life in this area has been wiped out, and even plants other than Wood Dragons are unable to survive. The vitality hidden beneath the earth has been devoured by the Wood Dragons, thus evolving into a desert.”
“Devouring vitality?”
Wang Lanxi’s eyes narrowed; these Wood Dragons sounded even more formidable and dangerous than the Earth Dragon, Fire Dragon, and Water Dragon.
“These are Wood Dragons? Why are they all trees?”
Chu Xin, staring at the large trees, knit her brows and asked, “Would they taste good if roasted?”
“Daddy says that everything can be roasted.”
Chu Chen spoke earnestly, “As for whether it tastes good or not, I don’t know.”
Chu Xin turned her head and glanced at him, rolling her eyes exaggeratively, “When it comes to roasting things, you remember quite clearly, but the phrases ‘a promise is as weighty as nine tripods’ and ‘words said are like arrows shot, impossible to take back’, you could never remember.”
“Heh heh!” Chu Chen chuckled sheepishly, blinking his round, wide eyes, and fell silent.
Roasted and eaten?
The people from other forces nearby, upon hearing this, turned their heads one after another, looking over with speechless expressions.
They were thinking about how to break the barrier of the Wood Dragon Forest and seize the crown of the Wood Dragon Emperor, whereas this brat was wondering whether Wood Dragons tasted good.
But when they saw Chu Xin and Chu Chen, their eyes suddenly widened in shock.
These two brats, who looked no more than four or five years old, could actually enter the Ancient Mysterious Realm?
Even though this Ancient Mysterious Realm was only Low Grade, one needed to have reached the Martial Emperor Realm to enter. Which means that both these youngsters had reached the Martial Emperor level?
Martial Emperors at the age of four or five, this was simply astonishing.
Could these be the true Divine Realm Geniuses?
Little did they know, that even the Geniuses of the Divine Realm would not dare to compare with these two little ones.
“Everyone!”
At that moment, a man dressed in golden armor stepped forward and proclaimed loudly, “All of us here are from various Lower Realms and the Divine Realm’s Heavenly Prides, all aiming to head to the Ancient God Mountain to absorb Divinity and break through to become God Disciples or Martial Gods. Why not join forces to shatter this barrier first, slay the Wood Dragon Emperor, and then compete for the crown of the Wood Dragon Emperor using our means? How about it?”
There were too many people that came for the Wood Dragon Forest, and amongst them were the major forces of the Divine Realm, the Martial Emperors and Half-step Martial Gods from various Lower Realms. They were cautious of one another, and none were willing to make a real move, lest other forces capitalize on it.
“These Wood Dragons have devoured so much vitality that, although they have not broken through to the real Half-step God Disciple realm, their strength has likely surpassed that of ordinary Half-step God Disciples. Moreover, those Wood Dragons near the Wood Dragon Emperor, which are one to two hundred feet in size, are probably already at the Half-step God Disciple realm. The collective strength of these Wood Dragons is very fearsome, and I believe that no single force could defeat them on their own. Let’s work together, kill the Wood Dragon Emperor, and then discuss how to compete for the crown,” another person stepped forward and said, obviously also from the Divine Realm, given the way he referred to Martial Gods.
“Makes sense.”
The disciples from numerous forces nodded in agreement.
“However!”
At this moment, another person stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over everyone as he said in a somber tone, “Within the Ancient Mysterious Realm, there is a Blood Demon hiding in the shadows, devouring the Essence Blood of living beings to enhance his Cultivation. Everyone must be vigilant.”
“A Blood Demon?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s faces changed.
It was not only the Divine Realm that had Blood Demons; they also existed in all the Lower Realms. Everyone was extremely wary of Blood Demons.
“Therefore, before we join forces to attack the wooden dragon forest barrier, I need to first confirm whether that Blood Demon is hiding among us.”
The man produced a mirror in his hand and announced loudly, “This is the Blood Demon Mirror. It has no effect on normal cultivators but can reveal a Blood Demon hiding within a cultivator’s body, or one disguised as a human cultivator.”
“This!”
Upon hearing this, everyone hesitated.
Despite the man’s clear explanation that the Blood Demon Mirror would not cause them any harm, nobody could guarantee whether what he said was true or false.
What if the Blood Demon Mirror concealed a powerful deadly move, and if they refrained from resisting, would they not be courting their own destruction?
Seeing this, the man’s body erupted in blazing flames as he declared loudly, “I am a disciple of the Red Flame Divine Hall of the Divine Realm. I swear upon the honor of the Red Flame Divine Hall that my words are true and without a hint of falsehood. If not, may my soul dissipate and the honor of the Red Flame Divine Hall be tarnished.”
“The Red Flame Divine Hall? Is it that impressive?”
Someone from the Lower Realm questioned doubtfully.
Not every Lower Realm had a Divine Gifted Stele, nor did they all have connections with the Divine Realm. Most people from the Lower Realms were unaware of information from the Divine Realm.
“Of course, it’s impressive. That is one of the three top powers in the Divine Realm, overseeing one of the three Divine Sovereigns, the Red Flame Divine Sovereign, and its strength is very formidable,” someone from the Lower Realm who was knowledgeable about the Divine Realm whispered in explanation.
“Hiss! One of the three top powers in the Divine Realm?”
Upon hearing this, all those from the Lower Realms inhaled sharply in astonishment.
Those who were originally from the Divine Realm fell silent upon hearing this, pondering over the truth of the Red Flame Divine Hall disciple’s words.
At that time, the Red Flame Divine Hall disciple spoke again, “The Blood Demon cultivates by devouring the Essence Blood of all living things. Frankly, all the Demon Beasts in the Ancient Mysterious Realm, as well as all the cultivators who enter it, are targets for the Blood Demon to devour. If you do not wish to be devoured by the Blood Demon, you must remain vigilant at all times. Surely, none of us want to become food for the Blood Demon, right?”
“Indeed, the Blood Demon is a common enemy of the entire Divine Realm and all Lower Realms. The terror of the Blood Demon is well known in our hearts. If the Blood Demon is truly hiding among us, the consequences would be unimaginable. I agree with the suggestion of the Red Flame Divine Hall brother,” a Half-step God Disciple from the Divine Realm stepped forward to say.
“I also agree.”

“I consent!”
One after another, more people stood up in agreement.
Chu Chen tugged at Chu Xin’s sleeve and asked, “Sister, do we agree?”
“I don’t know.”
Chu Xin shook her head, took Wang Lanxi’s big hand, and asked, “Grandma, do we agree?”
“Agree.”
Wang Lanxi nodded her head. Once the vast majority had agreed, those who did not would certainly be suspected of being Blood Demon infiltrators and would inevitably be besieged by everyone.
At such a time, people would undoubtedly prefer to err on the side of killing than to let a suspect go free.
“That Red Flame Divine Hall disciple did not lie, the Blood Demon Mirror can indeed only reveal Blood Demons and will not harm cultivators. The Aotian Empire and the Ice and Snow Temple both possess it, it’s just that they didn’t bring it with them,” Xiao Ling’er explained.
“A mere scan, no harm done,” Zhu Laojiu and the others also nodded and said.
Chu Xin turned to look at Chu Chen and solemnly stated, “We are not Blood Demons, so of course, we must agree.”
“Oh!”
Chu Chen nodded his little head and then flew higher into the sky, waving his chubby little hands and shouting in a childlike voice, “We agree too!”
Everyone looked at him in bewilderment. If you agree, just agree; why fly so high and shout so loudly?
“Silly brother, come down now,” Chu Xin lightly slapped her own forehead with her snowy white hand, her delicate little face full of speechlessness as she murmured softly, “Being seen with this show-off is so embarrassing.”
Those nearby, including Xiao Ling’er, could not help but laugh.
“Oh!”
Chu Chen flew back down.
After everyone had agreed, the Red Flame Divine Hall disciple waved his hand, releasing a blast of scorching flame that struck the Blood Demon Mirror.
Hum!
Instantly, the Blood Demon Mirror vibrated, emitting a crimson beam of light that rotated in the air, scanning each person in turn.
After scanning once, the Red Flame Divine Hall disciple, still not reassured, swept over everyone a second time. Still finding no abnormalities, he then retracted the Blood Demon Mirror and bowed to the crowd, saying, “The Blood Demon is not among us. It was necessary to do this; please forgive the intrusion.”
