I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes Novel - Chapter 177

177 Feng Xia: “I Have Never Heard Such a Strange Request!”

At this moment, a huge corpse slowly floated to the surface of the river.

Feng Xia fixed his gaze on it. It was a bright red carp with a pair of wings on its back. Under the sunlight, its scales reflected silver light. The aura emitted from its body made Feng Xia feel a certain amount of pressure.

Obviously, this was also a powerful demon beast lord!

Yet, he was dead.

!!
Its death was quite thorough and tragic. There was almost no part of its body that was intact. Even though the river water provided cover and protection, the demon king Ying Chengpeng easily killed this demon beast lord in a fit of anger.

The difference in their strengths was so obvious.

“What a pity. This guy’s body is even bigger than Ying Huayu’s body. If I can carry it back to the Thousand Autumn Valley, it would be enough for the disciples to eat for months…”

Feng Xia shook his head regretfully, “Furthermore, the body of a Primal Core Realm demon beast like this contains a considerable amount of spiritual energy. Even without using special methods, it can be stored for a long time without going bad.”

Of course, he only thought about this.

In front of the Golden Roc demon king Ying Chengpeng and another demon king, no matter how bold Feng Xia was, he could not remove the body brazenly.

“What a pity. If I can bring it back, Youniang will definitely be very happy…”

In a daze, Feng Xia recollected some memories.

He remembered that after killing Ying Huayu, Zhu Youniang had excitedly pulled Yinghua Yu along to taste the roasted meat of the demon king’s son… no, the meat of the roasted demon king’s son?

“Did Brother Star say something just now?”

Ying Chengpeng turned his head around in confusion in the midst of action. With a few moves, he dismembered the huge demon fish and turned it into neat pieces of flesh.

Feng Xia immediately shook his head and waved his hand. “It’s nothing important. However, you said that you need my help… What’s going on?”

Ying Chengpeng’s strength was definitely not weak. In fact, judging from the attack just now, he might be even stronger than what everyone expected.

The reason why Feng Xia could successfully plot against Ying Chengpeng so many times was purely because he had the first mover advantage. He also used the fact that Ying Chengpeng knew nothing about him, to the extent of not even recognizing his enemy even when the enemy was standing in front of him.

If they really fought head-on, Feng Xia estimated that even if he tied 10 clones of himself together, they would not be enough to defeat Ying Chengpeng.

“I wonder if there’s any way to beat up this demon king a few times…” Feng Xia thought indignantly.

Look, such a close distance, such a big bird!

Not being able to take out the Jinghua hammer… no, the Jinghua sword to hit him really let down the name Feng Xia.

Just as Feng Xia’s primordial power was stirring, the Golden Roc demon king, who had been silent for a long while, finally continued, “It’s like this. Since Brother Star’s background is extremely ancient, and even the First Emperor comprehended the Dao at the place where you fell, I believe Brother Star should have some understanding of the heavenly divination techniques.”

No, no, no. I have never heard that term until you opened your mouth 10 seconds ago!

Feng Xia felt a headache coming on.

So he wanted him to tell his fortune?

However, he had already puffed up his own image as a mysterious expert. If he admitted that he really did not know anything at this moment, would it not be like slapping his own face?

Thinking of this, Feng Xia coughed and pretended to speak profoundly, “So it’s about this. Then I already know your goal.”

Upon hearing Feng Xia’s answer, the Golden Roc demon king was overjoyed. “Brother Star is indeed extraordinary. You’ve guessed my goal. That’s right. I made an enemy a few days ago. He killed my only son and destroyed my incarnation. This is a blood feud that must be avenged.”

Feng Xia could not stop his face from twitching.

Why did the description of this scoundrel sound so familiar?

At this moment, Ying Chengpeng’s face gradually sank as he said slowly, “It’s just that this scoundrel’s origin is a mysterious one. No matter how many times I’ve searched around, I can’t find any traces of that scoundrel. Although I suspected that it was Sky Snake’s doing at the beginning, after the battle with Sky Snake, I can basically confirm that even if that bastard is somehow involved, the mastermind must be someone else!”

Feng Xia’s heart pounded wildly.

That is right. Me, it is me!

As for the Sky Snake demon king, it was indeed innocent…

“Since you know that Sky Snake isn’t the mastermind, why did you…”

“It’s not a big deal.” Facing Feng Xia’s confusion, Ying Chengpeng replied indifferently, “After I fought with Sky Snake, I already realized that fellow was innocent.”

“So… so?” Feng Xia asked cautiously.

“So, but I have already attacked him. Based on the principle that a dead Sky Snake is the best Sky Snake, I find it best to just kill that fellow. Thus, I’m continuing with the pursuit.”

“…”

Hearing this, Feng Xia could not help but rejoice.

Unknowingly, a layer of goosebumps had appeared on the back of his neck and a drop of cold sweat had dripped down. He immediately used his magical power to evaporate it.

It was fortunate that he had bumped into the Golden Roc demon king.

Otherwise, after a while, Ying Chengpeng would become suspicious of Xuanwu Kingdom again!

If Ying Chengpeng continued this line of thinking and felt that since he was already feeling suspicious, he might as well destroy Xuanwu Kingdom… That would really be a big joke!

“Fortunately, fortunately… As expected, even a demon king can’t be underestimated.” Feng Xia exhaled.

“If Brother Star knows the heavenly divination techniques, I would like to ask you to work out where that despicable scoundrel is!”

At the end, Ying Chengpeng yelled out angrily.

The loss of two incarnations in a row was a huge and painful loss for him!

How could he let this matter rest and not take revenge?

“I understand what happened to you.”

Feng Xia immediately said solemnly, “Coincidentally, I do have some understanding of the heavenly divination techniques. Brother, please wait a moment. Let me read your fortune carefully…”

The moment he finished speaking, Feng Xia closed his eyes slowly.

His fingers looked like they were plucking the strings of a zither as they nimbly brushed through the void, dancing up and down, creating rings of starlight ripples.

“This technique is called the Star Divination Technique. It’s one of the highest levels within the heavenly divination techniques.” Feng Xia spoke nonsense with an indifferent expression, causing the two demon kings to feel a deep sense of veneration amidst an inexplicable pressure.

At this moment, they actually felt a mysterious and distant aura emanating from Feng Xia.

It did not belong to the mortal world, nor the present world!

“Brother Star, you really have remarkable abilities!” the two demon kings muttered.

After a few moments, Feng Xia opened his eyes again and said with a faint smile, “Brother, I’ve already come to a conclusion about what you want me to work out.”

The Golden Roc demon king exclaimed in a low voice, “There’s a result so soon?”

“It’s just a small thing. It doesn’t take long,” Feng Xia replied calmly. “The real heavenly divination techniques predict the heavenly intent, calculate the heavenly fate and develop the heavenly secrets. Now, it’s just to find a person’s whereabouts. Why would it need so much effort?”

The two demon kings were filled with respect again.

“No matter what, I want to thank Brother Star for taking the trouble to do this!”
