Chapter 679: Chapter 679: Golden Crow Emperor

“Peacock Saint Master,” the Vajra Ape Clan Leader, seeing that a tough approach was useless, immediately softened his stance to the Peacock Saint Master, “Please forgive our petty mistakes and let us off this one time. Our clans will all be grateful and indebted to you!”

“Grateful and indebted, huh,” the Peacock Saint Master said with a cold laugh, “I don’t want to be too ruthless, so here’s what we’ll do, each of your clans can give me a hundred drops of Holy Blood and you’ll be allowed to leave safely.”

A hundred drops of Holy Blood!

The expressions on the faces of the clan leaders instantly froze.

For any of their clans, this was a fortune!

This Peacock Saint Master, is she trying to bleed them dry!

“What, you don’t agree?”

The Peacock Saint Master’s eyes narrowed, “If I were to kill all of you, I would get more than just that amount of Holy Blood, wouldn’t I?”

“To kill one of you and extract a hundred thousand drops of Holy Blood should be more than enough.”

Hearing this, the clan leaders immediately felt a chill in their hearts, they knew the Peacock Saint Master was not wrong, with her current strength, she could certainly do it!

So, what would it be, lose a hundred drops of Holy Blood or face the Peacock Saint Master in a tough battle?

The former option, though damaging, could at least save their lives, but if they chose the latter, there was an eighty percent chance it would end in death.

“A hundred drops of Holy Blood, my Qingluan Clan will give it!”

The Qingluan Saint Master was the first to yield, surrendering a hundred drops of Holy Blood. His eyes, as he looked at the Peacock Saint Master, were filled with dread. The Peacock Saint Master’s recent attack had been chilling to the core, and he understood all too well that she was not the pushover she once was, and she indeed had the power to strike him down!

After the Peacock Saint Master checked the amount of Holy Blood in the Jade Bottle and confirmed it was correct, she nodded and glanced at the Qingluan Saint Master, “You may go.”

The Qingluan Saint Master, as if granted a great reprieve, transformed into his true Qingluan form and quickly fled for his life.

“A hundred drops of Holy Blood, I will give it!”

“I am willing to pay it too!”

“…”

Seeing that the Qingluan Saint Master had opened the floodgates, the others didn’t hesitate for too long before showing their stance.

Nobody chose to stand firmly against the Peacock Saint Master anymore; all opted for compromise.

After all these individuals had handed over enough Holy Blood, the Peacock Saint Master did not give them any more trouble and allowed them to leave.

Although killing these individuals would not have been difficult for her, all of them had the power of a Royal Family behind them, and they could not be dealt with unless the Peacock Sacred Land had the capability to annihilate all the Royal Families.

After the clan leaders of the various Demon Beast Royal Families had retreated, the Peacock Saint Master’s gaze fell upon the two old Demon Saints, the Golden Crow and the Suan Ni.

“They have all paid up, what about you?” The Peacock Saint Master’s eyes shimmered with a hint of mockery.

“We, two great Imperial Families, how could we possibly be threatened by you?”

Although the two venerable Demon Saints were both badly injured, they still hadn’t yielded. They were the pinnacle of the Demon Beast World’s pyramid, so how could they bow to the Peacock Saint Master?

“Two old coots, still so defiant. It seems the wounds on your bodies are not grievous enough!” the Peacock Saint Master sneered. These two old things were the instigators, and she had not planned on letting them off easily.

However, just as she was about to continue attacking, the space above the Peacock Sacred Land suddenly distorted, and an astonishing vortex appeared!

Within the vortex, divine light dazzled, and the image of a Golden Crow materialized, exuding an overwhelming aura of might.

“Peacock Saint Master! Grant me this favor and stay your hand!” a voice, commanding and leaving no room for doubt, came from the Golden Crow apparition.

Lin Yi’s pupils shrank. The owner of this Golden Crow apparition possessed an extremely terrifying level of cultivation, and even now, as the Peacock Saint Master had merged with the Phoenix Treasure Bone, she likely still fell short.

“Your Majesty, the Golden Crow Emperor!”

At the moment when the Golden Crow apparition appeared, the two old Demon Saints also revealed ecstatic expressions. The Emperor of the Golden Crow Clan had taken action!

The Golden Crow Emperor, that was a Supreme being of the Demon Beast World! With him speaking out, they didn’t believe the Peacock Saint Master would dare to disobey.

However, the Peacock Saint Master did not bow, “Golden Crow Emperor, if one day your Golden Crow Clan is invaded and your people are slaughtered, could it all be so casually glossed over with just a word from you?”

Had it been in the past, the Peacock Saint Master certainly wouldn’t dare contradict the Golden Crow Emperor, but now, she had the courage, her confidence stemming from her strength. Now that the Peacock Saint Master had merged with the Phoenix Treasure Bone, even though she might not be as powerful as the Golden Crow Emperor, she was confident she could fight!

After a brief silence, the Golden Crow Emperor’s voice sounded again, “Two hundred drops of Holy Blood, to let these two leave. How about it?”

“Your Majesty, the Golden Crow Emperor!”

Hearing this, the two old Demon Saints immediately became anxious. Wouldn’t this signify that their two great Imperial Families were compromising to the Peacock Sacred Land?

What an enormous blow to the face of their two great Imperial Families!

Yet, against expectations, the Peacock Saint Master shook her head and said, “These two plotted the invasion of my Peacock Sacred Land, and as the masterminds, how could the price they pay be the same as the other offenders?”
