Chapter 731 - The Great Deceiver
Chapter 731: The Great Deceiver
Han Fei realized a problem. He suspected that the Demon Purification Pot would not give information of high-intelligent or humanoid creatures unless in certain special situations.
For example, Han Fei didn't see any information from the two Half-Mermen at all.
However, he had seen Yang Ruoyun and Mo Qianshang's info earlier. Was it because they were about to transform?
Hiding in the crab shell created by the Metamorphosis Water, Xia Xiaochan stared at the two sea demons coldly. "I asked you a question! Do you know how a sea demon can turn into a human being?"
Both of the Half-Mermen shook their heads. "No."
Between them, the Half-Merman named Little Six sneered. "Even if I did, I wouldn't tell it to a human being."
Han Fei looked at Xia Xiaochan and said telepathically, It's fine even if you show up. They'll be killed sooner or later. Let's see if I can use your identity to help.
Xia Xiaochan nodded. The crab shell suddenly vanished, and Xia Xiaochan floated above the spring of demonic Qi in her original form.
The two Half-Mermen were dumbfounded by what they saw.
"Hiss! Is she… A sea demon?"
"She's a… Lady from the royal family?"
The two Half-Mermen looked at each other in shock.
They had never seen a sea demon as classy as Xia Xiaochan before!
She was… Stunningly beautiful!
Her scales were emitting a fascinating brilliance, and her fin clothes were fluttering like colorful ribbons. Was she really a sea demon?
Pa… Pa…
Han Fei slapped both of the Half-Mermen. "How disrespectful of you to not kneel before the Holy Lady! Do you want more slapping?"
"The Holy Lady?"
The two Half-Mermen were dumbfounded at this moment.
Xia Xiaochan looked much more dignified than Lady Yu Ji. At the very least, Lady Yu Ji wasn't so majestic, nor did she have such beautiful scales.
Han Fei turned their heads around. "The Holy Lady has been hiding among the human beings with unbelievable techniques since childhood. Do you know the turmoil in the sea a couple of days ago? The Holy Lady disrupted human beings' scheme on her own, but she was also reduced to her original form. You two morons, on your knees."
The two Half-Mermen knelt before Xia Xiaochan, although still confused.
At this moment, only the Hexagon Starfish was rolling its eyes.
It was truly unfortunate of the two Half-Mermen to run into Han Fei. Almost as unfortunate as the starfish itself!
One of the Half-Mermen looked at Han Fei and asked, "Who are you?"
Han Fei replied coldly, "Me? I'm the Holy Lady's guardian. I may be a human being, but it was me who protected the Holy Lady on the way here. Do you see that the Holy Lady is treating her wounds with demonic Qi? Have you seen anyone else who can cultivate in this place?"
The two Half-Mermen were stupefied. A human as the guardian of a sea demon? Why did it sound so preposterous?
Little Six asked, "We know that this lady must be from the royal family of the sea demons. Doesn't the royal family have any technique for human transformation?"
Han Fei looked at him as if he were an idiot. "What royal family? The Holy Lady is the Sea King's descendant. There's a Holy City in the boundless sea, and the Holy Lady came from there. Also, the Holy Lady has been living with human beings, so she doesn't know any secret techniques of demons. Where are your brains?"
The other Half-Merman gasped. "The Holy City? Isn't the capital the biggest city?"
Pa!
Han Fei slapped him again. "The Holy City has 13,500 districts the size of the capital. You think your capital can compare to the Holy City?"
"Hiss!"
The two Half-Mermen were completely overwhelmed. 13,500 districts? Wasn't that too many?
Xia Xiaochan glimpsed at Han Fei. This man was quite a bragger and liar. She had become a Holy Lady and the Sea King's descendant in the blink of an eye. Did the man even know who the Sea King was?
The two Half-Mermen wavered. On one hand, they were vigilant of Han Fei, who was a human being.
But on the other hand, Xia Xiaochan was truly an awe-inspiring figure who could directly make use of the demonic Qi barrier.
Lady Yu Ji once tried to do the same, but the demonic Qi in her body was disrupted after she persisted for only a hundred seconds. She had to quit.
Little Six asked one last question, "If she is the Holy Lady, why didn't she just talk to our boss?"
Han Fei rolled his eyes and looked at him in disdain. "The Holy Lady has a powerful bloodline. One drop of her blood can awaken creatures, and two drops can turn creatures into demons. However, she's greatly wounded at this moment. What if your boss becomes malicious after seeing her? All you need to know is that if you confess the method of human transformation, the Holy Lady will be able to return to the human beings. Any rewards that she gives you afterward will be extremely helpful to you."
Han Fei instantly said to Xia Xiaochan telepathically, Let them take a look at the True Spirit Demonic Scripture. We'll get it back later.
Standing proudly in the middle of the chaotic demonic Qi, Xia Xiaochan threw out a jade slip.
Xia Xiaochan said proudly, "It couldn't have been easy for you to cultivate. I'll bestow a technique upon you. It was created by the Sea King himself. In three years, you will likely become Sea Spirits."
"Huh! Sea Spirits?"
Little Six and the other Half-Merman quickly accepted the jade slip and browsed through it, only to be shocked.
The first Sea King manipulated the natural rules, wrote a secret book, and hosted it in the sky and on earth?
So that all creatures could participate in demonic cultivation?
It contained the methods of cultivation for sea demons?
Also, it was unmistakably a heaven-level technique. Neither of them had ever seen or heard about this True Spirit Demonic Scripture before.
They were no idiots. This technique was simply too powerful, so powerful that their body was still shivering.
Immediately, both of them bowed to Xia Xiaochan and had no more intention of resistance.
"Thank you for your gift, Holy Lady. We swear to follow you with our lives."
Pa!
Han Fei slapped them again. "Do you not know how lowly you are? You think you deserve to follow the Holy Lady? The True Spirit Demonic Scripture is already her grace to you. Why don't you confess the technique of human transformation right now?"
Neither of the sea demons liked Han Fei, who, just like every other human being, was mean to sea demons. How many times had he slapped them?
They would've already tried to kill him, if it weren't for the Holy Lady's sake or the Spirit Forbidden Net…
Little Six said, "Thank you for your grace, Holy Lady. Unfortunately, neither of us have learned the method of human transformation yet!"
Holy Lady's eyes widened. "You haven't? But that's the only technique that the Holy Lady needs."
Little Six said, "But we don't have any human transformation technique!"
Han Fei couldn't have felt more terrible. However, he didn't expect that he could get it so easily either. It would be fine if he learned the name of whoever had such a technique from them. He could try to capture them later.
Nevertheless, if the two Half-Mermen really didn't have any insight, he might as well kill them first.
But exactly at this moment, a Half-Merman said, "We only have a human simulation technique."
Han Fei's eyes glittered, and he roared furiously, "Then why don't you take it out already? The Holy Lady can easily get the technique of human transformation by deducing that technique!"
The Half-Merman's mouth widened. "Is that possible?"
Han Fei sneered. "The Sea King manipulated the natural rules to enlighten all lives. Do you think his descendants are good for nothing? Take it out."
"Wait a moment. Let me copy it."
A moment later, the Half-Merman took out a jade slip, still confused.
He wondered how talented the Sea King must've been. Was the Sea King's Secret Technique that he practiced created by him? So, it couldn't be hard for the Sea King's descendant to deduce a technique.
Xia Xiaochan's eyes bulged and winked. She couldn't believe that Han Fei really elicited them out of the technique.
Han Fei accepted the jade slip and scanned it. A series of information popped up.
Low-Level Human Simulation Technique (Spirit-Level, Mid-Quality)
Introduction: This is a technique for a sea demon to copy human beings' behavior and impersonate them. Practicing this technique can increase the power of their battle techniques.
Superseding Art: Advanced Human Simulation Technique
Deduction Cost: 0/500,000
Han Fei couldn't have felt worse after seeing this technique!
Han Fei had always thought that the mutual transformation between a human and a fish would be possible if the Fish Transformation Technique was inferred to the highest level.
But he realized that he might have been mistaken. The highest level of the Fish Transformation Technique was to turn into a demon. So, if a sea demon wanted to turn into a human being, shouldn't there be a Human Transformation Technique?
Therefore, there should be two sets of techniques, and he thought that one set of techniques could solve the problem…
Han Fei felt like vomiting blood, as this technique required only 500,000 points of spiritual energy to deduce, and it was merely spirit-level, mid-quality.
"Son of a b*tch. My experience turns out to be wrong."
Little Six glimpsed at Han Fei. "Human being, why are you still not submitting the human simulation technique to the honorable Holy Lady?"
Han Fei nodded. "Not bad. You two are not bad at all. The Holy Lady will remember you."
"Puchi!"
The Blood-Drinking Knife was drawn out, and Han Fei cut the two Half-Mermen quickly. He changed his attitude faster than a shooting star!
The Hexagon Starfish shivered hard as it watched the whole scene.
It knew that they were probably doomed the moment they presented the human simulation technique!
However, it didn't expect Han Fei to be so quick and brutal as to eliminate them in the blink of an eye.
Han Fei took out their Sea Swallowing Seashells, found the True Spirit Demonic Scripture, and threw it back to Xia Xiaochan.
Xia Xiaochan quickly ran to him. "What about it? Does it work?"
Han Fei grinned. "Yes, there shouldn't be a problem, but I have to do some deduction first."
