Dragon Tamer - C.408 - 410 Voodoo Tide

Chapter 408: Chapter 410 Voodoo Tide

“Yes… it was Yan Zhen who, for a slight gain, slaughtered the Witch People on an island. Those Witch People carried some sort of curse that could summon the extremely rare Voodoo Tide of the sea. The Voodoo Tide damaged all the coral wood buildings in Neon Sea and also caused many diseases. The Great Instructor has come to know of Yan Zhen’s slaughter of the Witch People and plans to take control of the Voodoo Tide after obtaining the Sea-calming Bell, thereby exposing Yan Zhen’s crimes,” Lü Yuanxun said.

“The Sea-calming Bell can control the Voodoo Tide?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“The Voodoo Tide is actually caused by the cursed blood of those Witch People. Yan Zhen killed them all, the entire island was covered in blood, which flowed into the streams and into the ocean, creating the Voodoo Tide… This is what I heard the Great Instructor tell me. I was out seeking pleasure while drinking, but I didn’t know that the brothel belonged to the Yan Clan; the words I said to those wine-serving girls all fell into Yan Zhen’s ears,” Lü Yuanxun said, truly looking grief-stricken, and one could also see a hint of regret on his face.

Speaking carelessly after drinking, he divulged such crucial information, which brought the catastrophe upon the Great Instructor.

The Great Instructor was ready; once he got the Sea-calming Bell, he would be able to extract the cursed blood from the Voodoo Tide and bring to light the chief culprit behind Man City’s suffering from the toxic tide, and punish one of the Nine Tribes’ clan leaders.

To protect their Yan Clan’s reputation in Neon Sea, Yan Zhen naturally resorted to murder!

“I had no intention of harming the Great Instructor; I merely provided Yan Zhen with a route, and that poisoned food, it wasn’t prepared by me. It was Yan Zhen who poisoned it; I really didn’t mean to kill the Great Instructor, and I didn’t expect Yan Zhen to be so malicious. At first, when he spoke to me, he only mentioned stealing the Sea-calming Bell and nothing more!” Lü Yuanxun continued, trying to absolve himself of his wicked actions.

“What about Han Wen, is she still alive?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“She escaped, hiding on the island just like you. She carries a Life-preserving Charm; once it shines, Han Wen can teleport far away. I couldn’t catch up with her, but she entered the territory of the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor with injuries on her body. The Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor is very familiar with her blood. I guess she won’t live long,” Lü Yuanxun said.

“Indeed, but she should outlive you,” Zhu Minglang said.

“No!!!!”

The tail of the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon had already wrapped around Lü Yuanxun’s neck.

With a casual tug, Lü Yuanxun’s short neck was twisted and broken!

Zhu Minglang didn’t need to determine the truth of Lü Yuanxun’s words; this person, whether by accident or malice, had sought to endanger him—that was a fact.

Such a person didn’t deserve to live, wasting the fresh air of Man City. He was more suited to this Magic Island, where the leaves and air both reeked of decay—after all, it matched the corruption in his heart.

He searched the body.

Zhu Minglang discovered that Lü Yuanxun actually carried quite a few Beads!

This guy clearly had enough Beads but had always kept them hidden on himself.

This put Zhu Minglang in a somewhat better mood; these Beads would be enough to rid the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon of the negative effects brought by the strange aroma!

…

…

White clouds floated above the Blue Sea Demon Island, and from a high vantage point, the island didn’t look much different from a normal primal island; even initially smelling the strange fragrance wouldn’t necessarily alert one to being in a poisoned state.

In the dense clouds, a man dressed in black robes and wearing a black mask stood suspended in the air. A Tyrant Blood Evil Dragon was by his side, its fearsome claws capable of ripping bodies apart. Even when not attacking, the clash of metal upon its contact echoed an eerie sound that would surely send chills down one’s spine in the dead of night.

He looked down at the island from a distance, one hand holding the Three-color Sea Control Bell.

“Father, who is that person that appeared beside Great Tutor Lin Zhao? Is he also a student of the Great Tutor?” A young man also stood atop the cloud mass, inquiring.

“How could a person who can contend with the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor be just a student? This damn Lü fatso, he failed to inform us that such a person existed,” Yan Zhen said.

“It seems Lin Zhao didn’t tell him, and Lü the Fatty only found out just before we set out; otherwise, with his current predicament, how would he dare deceive us?” Yan Xu said.

“He’s hiding on the island now, and it’s not easy for us to deal with him,” Yan Zhen said coldly.

Yan Zhen didn’t want to take any chances.

Once on Magic Island, without the prepared grass beads, he would not last long. If he were entangled by the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor or that mysterious man, unable to get away, then as time slipped away, he would be the one in greater danger.

Great Tutor Lin Zhao was already dead.

The Sea-calming Bell was in his own hands.

Even if one or two survivors remained, it was irrelevant; they had no evidence whatsoever that he was behind all this.

Of course, to be safe, it would be better not to leave any survivors.

“Let’s just keep watch outside for a few days. We won’t need to lift a finger; the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor will kill them all,” Yan Zhen said with a cruel smile.

“Father, do you really think the Sea-calming Bell can control the Voodoo Tide? The Voodoo Tide is so powerful—if we could control it at will, wouldn’t all the nations of the Neon Sea have to obey us?” Yan Xu asked.

“Wasn’t our original trip to that island to find this tidal secret art? No wonder no matter how we killed them, they wouldn’t say anything. As it turns out, the Voodoo Tide is formed by the sea sacrifice of their blood. With this thing, our Yan Clan can soon dominate all the tribes of the Neon Sea. Those kings, monarchs, and queens will all have to kneel at our feet!” A gleam shone in Yan Zhen’s eyes.

“Heh heh, that little queen of Xia Yu… She actually dared to slap me. All I did was ask her to come drink with me, and she had the nerve to slap me several times. I’ll make sure to slap her back—hard—elsewhere on her body!” Yan Xu revealed a lecherous smile.

“Ever since their Xia Yu royal family dared to show us disdain, they were destined to become our slaves,” said Yan Zhen.

…

…

In the swampy area, the stench of decay was growing thicker.

Just as Great Tutor Lin Zhao had feared, the longer time went on, the stronger the strange fragrance and stench from the island would become, making it impossible for normal creatures to survive here!

Zhu Minglang made his way through the swamp, collecting as many wild grass beads as possible, not knowing how long the enemy would be waiting outside.

As he walked, suddenly there was a muffled boom in the sky. Before Zhu Minglang could react, a piercingly shrill cry exploded over the treetops, like thunder striking, almost causing Zhu Minglang to faint.

Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor!

This sinister and cunning ancient monster had waited till his luck had run out to make its move.

Zhu Minglang looked up to see the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor’s glittering golden body, its majestic and dominant feathers, and those ferocious and terrifying claws, which seemed to be grasping a person…

Han Wen!

The person in the claws of the Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor was none other than Han Wen.

Han Wen was alive or dead, Zhu Minglang didn’t know. The Absolute Sea Hawk Emperor must have recovered and specifically waited until the fragrance thickened to start its revenge hunt!
