Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 342: 342

The caw of a seagull could be heard across the sky as the small ship with an even smaller crew sailed towards the continent that was strewn out in front of them .

While the experts on board the small ship were all of the Heavenly Knight and Ordinary Saint ranks, their auras were fiercer than normal cultivators of the same level .

The pirates in the shallow water were looking at the group with wary eyes . Although they had the benefit of numbers, none of them took action .

The many merchant ships that were also sailing towards the continent saw this phenomenon . Their eyes filled with shock and disbelief . Who were these experts on board the small ship? Even the pirates of the Sea of the Enchanted dared not touch them!

These merchants knew the deadliness of the pirates, many of them had already paid a hefty fee to be safe from their attacks .

Some thought that the small ship had done the same, but many of the real experts present had seen wariness and hesitation in the face of the pirates as they looked at the crew onboard the small ship .

This was not an expression that would be shown unless they had some sort of power backing them .

The small ship arrogantly maneuvered through the larger vessels; it quickly advanced towards the inland zone .

The sea was split into different parts, where the majority was the high sea . This was the deepest part of the sea, then came the shallow sea, and finally was the inland zone .

While the shallow sea was still considered a part of the Sea of the Enchanted, the inland zone was different . When one entered the inland zone, they had entered the territory of the continent . Here the pirates would never enter as it was the same as asking for death .

Onboard the small ship, in the cabin of the captain, was a young youth . He did not seem much older than eighteen or nineteen . His black hair was fluttering in the wind, which came through a window, resembling ink that was artistically being spread over a piece of paper .

His skin resembled white jade; it was so delicate and smooth that even women would be jealous of him .

His eyes were black like the darkest night but still glistened as if they contained the entire starry sky . From time to time, an azure gleam would flash past, but one would only notice it if they really focused on observing him .

This young youth who was not even twenty years of age was Xue Wei . His strength had increased tremendously while he had spent a year onboard the ship cultivating .

His Qi levels were now at the seventh layer of the Heavenly Knight rank, while his Spiritual Energy had risen to the ninth layer .

It was not only him who had benefitted from the year of cultivating, but Lin Xiao, Hei Gou, Bai Tianyi, and Luoluo had also all benefitted greatly, the one with the least advances was Xue Fu .

It was not that she had not been given the same amount of resources as Xue Wei and the others; it was due to her being a Scarlet Blood Bat . Although they were immensely strong, they had an ancient bloodline; the truth was that their talent in cultivation was terrible . It had already taken them thousands of years to reach the Ordinary Saint rank .

Xue Fu, who had the least progress, was still ecstatic . During the time she had been aboard the ship, she had gained more than one Rainbow Pill; one was a two-colored pill, the others were one-colored Rainbow Pills .

She had never expected that she, a Fierce Beast who had mutated and improved her bloodline and become a Primordial Beast, would be able to consume a Rainbow Pill .

Their advance made a lot of people pay attention to them . Their arrogant attitude that showed no fear of anyone, and sailed through the much larger ships caused many to have a bad impression of them .

Xue Wei was the one who had decided that they should move towards the harbor, completely ignoring the other ships .

Xue Fu could not help but feel some sweat appear on her face, and her hands were clenched tightly .

She had just emerged from the Thunder Twilight Zone and was unaware of how things worked in this world .

She was not willing to offend that many forces in a place she did not know, but Xue Wei seemed utterly unmoved .

It was not only the ships present that had noticed the arrogant and confident behavior of the small ship, but the harbor control and customs at the Demon Phoenix Continent had also long since realized that something was amiss .

"Someone, go out to the inland zone and greet them . If they are just plainly arrogant, teach them a lesson . If, by some extreme luck, they have a reason for being this arrogant, then politely help them into the harbor . "

The one who spoke was the foreman of the harbor workers, and his words were law .

He had seen many things throughout his time as a foreman, and he knew that either this ship’s captain was stupid or had something to rely on .

Looking at the small ship, the foreman dared not guess whether or not it was stupidity or confidence .

"I’ll go . " A young girl appeared next to the foreman . She seemed to be around twenty years old, but while her body was attractive and mature, her face was youthful and seemed much younger than her actual age .

"You?" The foreman was surprised . This young woman was not a regular worker in the harbor, she was sent over by the royal family, and her bloodline was immensely pure even for a Primordial Beast .

"I am curious about what might have made them so confident," the girl answered with a slight smile on her face .

"You go then," the foreman knew that he could not stop her, and he also felt that it was benefitting him to send someone of a higher rank, in case they really had something backing them .

Hearing the foreman approve, big white wings appeared on the back of the woman; she looked like an angel as she flew towards the small ship, not at all hiding her aura of an Earth Saint .

"Someone is coming," Xue Wei suddenly muttered and opened his closed eyes .

This was what he had wanted . He wanted them to notice him, and hopefully, he could use his bloodline to be received as an extinguished guest in the Demon Phoenix Continent . He was tired of always being on the run or just barely scraping by .

He had understood much about the Demon Phoenix Continent while traveling with the delegation, and one of the things he realized was that bloodline was something that was paid close attention to .

The purer one’s bloodline, the more likely one was to become something on this continent .

Humans existed here too, but it was very rare for them to make a name for themselves, the majority were the beasts .

This Primordial Beast with the white wings flew towards the small ship, a gentle smile hung on her lips, but although she looked ethereal, her eyes shone with disdain .

"Halt!" her voice spread out over the entire ocean as she reached within hearing range of the small ship, but it was not only the small ship that heard her, everyone that was trying to sail inland heard her and while the majority of the ships stopped, her target, the little ship, continued forward undisturbed .

Seeing this, the woman’s face turned slightly cold . Her angered expression was very unsuitable for her child-like features .

She flapped her wings a few times, and after what seemed like only a second, she appeared on board the ship .

Everyone who saw this scene was gloating secretly . They wanted to see these unknown people being taught a lesson .

"I told you to halt," her rather forceful voice sounded on the deck, but Xue Wei just glanced at her and said nothing .

His completely disdainful attitude shocked everyone present, friends and observers alike .

The woman had to control herself, or she would have jumped over and killed him right away, but she knew she still had to check whether or not he had some sort of background .

Xue Wei snickered coldly inside when he saw her eyes filled with anger and her fists clenched . He had a somewhat unfavorable impression of this person .

"I am talking to you!" the woman said, and the heaven and earth essence started to move, it was clear that her anger could not be contained any longer and that she was about to make a move .

Looking at her again, Xue Wei unleashed his bloodline pressure . Although he was a lower rank than this woman, in a completely different realm from her, his bloodline pressure made the woman tremble and feel like she had to kneel . This was the pressure of a monarch .

Her eyes instantly widened when she felt the pressure, and cold sweat appeared on her body .

She had been sent to the harbor by the royal family, so she had seen the royals before . The pressure she felt from this youth was similar to the pressure she felt from the royals, and this could only mean one thing - this was a Sovereign Beast of unknown origin!

The woman suddenly understood why this youth was so disdainful towards her . He had every right to be so . He could be as arrogant as he wished; he was a creature that stood above all others .

"This one had eyes but failed to notice mount Tai," the woman said while bowing deeply . Her sudden change in behavior shocked all that wereas observing the situation .

Many of the beasts who had been observing had felt a wisp of threat from the aura, but they were too far away to really sense the ripple of bloodline pressure, so they were puzzled as to why the woman would change from burning with anger to becoming immensely respectful and even a bit frightened .

"Let this one lead Sir towards the harbor," the woman said respectfully, her attitude had taken a complete turn, and she politely let the ship enter the inland zone and even reach the harbor in front of all the other vessels .

The others were all requested to wait and let this small ship enter first, the others became annoyed, but no one dared to go against the young woman with the white wings .

As they reached the harbor, the woman excused herself . She made sure to give the foreman the task of looking after them himself and even told him that they should not charge this small ship any fee . They should receive the best treatment .

The foreman was surprised, but he did nothing to go against the order . Instead, he looked solemn as he went forward to help to look after them and assist inhelp them docking their ship .

While the foreman was helping the crew onboard the small ship, the woman with the white wings flew directly towards the palace .

Xue Wei was lucky and had arrived straight at the capital, which was also why he had been the object of so many ships’ attention .

As such, the woman did not have far to fly to reach the palace, and when she arrived, she instantly announced her purpose .

"Please tell His Majesty, the Emperor, that an unknown Sovereign Beast has appeared at the harbor!" She told a eunuch who instantly rushed towards the palace’s inner halls to inform the Emperor of the news .

Within a moment, the entire palace was taking action, and the Emperor himself came out from the palace .

He was wearing a vermilion robe, the color only the royals of the Demon Phoenix Continent were allowed to wear, and his expression was solemn .

"Take me to meet the Sovereign Beast," he ordered the white-winged young woman .
