9 Heavenly Thunder Manual Chapter 254-255

Chapter 254 - The Large Roc's Territory

"Lord White?" Lei Yu was surprised, but then thought back when Big White previously said that the Dragon-Snake was merely one of its properties. And when it came to this monster, it looks like it's the ghostly thing that the Dragon-Snake had previously mentioned off to the east.

"Move aside, we have important matters to take care of so stop blocking our path!" Big White coldly said.

This unknown named demonic beast was scared out of its wits before running off and disappearing without a trace. Lei Yu blinked while looking at Big White, "I have never seen you like this before, I had always thought you were quite docile."

Big White grinned before replying: "Young master, it's up to who I'm dealing with. When dealing with this type of demonic beast, how can I lose the face of our Ceng Hong Villa."

"Uh…"

With Big White following along, the two didn't encounter any trouble. Even if those that didn't bother looking closed and decided to cause a problem, they would scurry away like a rat upon seeing Big White. Lei Yu was rather curious - was Ceng Hong Villa really that powerful? From beginning to end, Lei Yu had no clue what level of strength Big White had reached.

For three full days, a human and a beast flew through the depths of the Chaotic Star Sea. Lei Yu's heart was still very anxious, wanting to quickly reach his destination as soon as possible.

As for Big White, the most enjoyable thing about being together with Lei Yu was eating delicious food. But these foods for Lei Yu were considered nothing special. They mostly consisted of different kinds of bread or even a hot dog etc. Other things consisted of edibles that could last for a long time, such as cookies and others similar. All these food items weren't available in the Immortal World or the Chaotic Star Sea, so it's no wonder Big White was so excited to taste them.

"How much longer until we arrive?" Asked Lei Yu.

"Please don't be anxious young master; it's still quite far away." Replied Big White as he licked his lips from the delicious food he just ate.

"Could it be that all the dangers in the Chaotic Star Sea to you, I mean, to the Ceng Hong Villa are considered nothing?"

"It's not completely true since it's only for this certain region. When we get to the Large Roc Emperor's territory, we will have to be careful." Big White replied.

"Large Roc Emperor?" As if he remembered something, Lei Yu said: "Is it the Uncle Large Roc that Bao Er mentioned?"

"Right, that's him. Even though the Large Roc Emperor is friends with our Villa, it's just based out of mutual interest."

"Mutual interest?"

"Right, the medicinal pills that owner refines is bought by many people, and the Large Roc Emperor is just one of the many."

Lei Yu nodded to show he understood Big White's meaning. They got up and then continued on their journey. Unbeknownst to Lei Yu, there was a pair of sharp eyes staring at the two of them off in a distance.

"Whoosh~!"

There was a golden flash that stopped in front of Lei Yu and Big White. The speed was so fast that Lei Yu only saw a blur of light before an extra person appeared in front of them.

"You guys dare to invade the Large Roc Emperor's territory? Who are you people?" Asked the person who had suddenly appeared.

Lei Yu was a bit surprised because the person in front of them had a pair of golden wings on his back. His nose and mouth were merged together while curving downwards that was similar to an eagle's beak. Apart from the wings and the beak, he was no different than any other human.

"Friend, we came from Ceng Hong Villa and are passing through your territory to take care of some business in the Immortal World." Said Big White in a polite manner.

Lei Yu slightly raised his eyebrow. It looks like what Big White said was true; they were no longer in the region belonging to the Ceng Hong Villa. Even Big White was speaking so politely and didn't dare to be rash here.

"Ceng Hong Villa?"

"Right, I am Ceng Hong Villa's divine beast - Big White. And this is an important guest of our Ceng Hong Villa." Big White introduced themselves.

In fact, Lei Yu had already sent out a probe and found out this birdman had the strength of an early Nascent Soul stage. But since they were in another's territory, it was better to act respectfully.

"This friend, Big White and I have some important matters. We would appreciate it if you allow us to pass through your precious territory." Said Lei Yu with cupped fists.

"What proof do you guys have? You want to safely pass through after spouting a few words? You guys seem to not put our Large Roc Emperor's family in your eyes!"

Big White coldly humphed, "Don't push it too far! We have already given you a lot of face, so don't blame me if you piss us off!"

"Pissed off? So what if I piss you off? In order to pass through, you need to leave something of value or else… humph…!"

"Something of value?" Is this how your family's Large Roc Emperor teaches his subordinates? Could it be that you don't know that our Villa Master is good friends with your Large Roc Emperor?" Big White was starting to get angry. One could see the red ruby on his forehead was starting to shine while his eyes were narrowed to a glint.

"Enough of the bullshit! This is the rule; you have to leave a toll fee or else turn around and leave!" The birdman coldly replied while looking off to the side as if he didn't put Lei Yu and Big White in his eyes.

Big White was about to make a move before Lei Yu quickly blocked him. With a flip of his palm, a yellow crystal stone appeared. "This should be enough right?"

"Young master…"

Lei Yu made some furtive glances at Big White to stop him from saying anything else. The birdman's wings flapped and he flew towards Lei Yu and grabbed the crystal stone. After checking it out a bit, the birdman smiled, "Please proceed!"

"Thank you!"

Lei Yu cupped his hands in thanks while Big White fiercely glared at the birdman before the two started to leave.

"That bastard, he didn't even place Ceng Hong Villa in his eyes. Once we go back, I'm going to tell the Villa Master everything and make them give us an explanation!" Said Big White in a tone filled with hatred.

"It's best to have fewer issues than more. It's merely a crystal stone right? Didn't we pass through smoothly? Stop thinking so much about it." Lei Yu tried to comfort Big White.

That birdman was floating in midair while holding the crystal stone in joy. Suddenly, a few beams of golden light stopped around him. That birdman immediately became respectful, "Captain!"

Five people with a similar appearance as the birdman arrived. One of them nodded before asking: "Who were the people just then? Why did you let them leave?"

"Captain, this gift is to pay respects to you!" After that previous birdman passed over the yellow crystal stone, he then said: "They said they were from Ceng Hong Villa and was passing through to the Immortal World."

"Oh? They only gave a mere yellow crystal stone?" Asked the Captain.

"Ye… yes!"

"You idiotic thing! We have so many brothers, how is this enough for us to split?" The Captain then smiled, "It's not easy for us to meet people passing through so this daddy will lead you all today. How about we go grab ourselves a little something extra?"

"Good!"

"Sounds good! Captain, we're counting on you!"

The several birdmen revealed a strange smile. The Captain waved his hand and multiple gold lights burst forth chasing after Lei Yu and Big White.

"Young master, looks like something is off." Said Big White softly.

Lei Yu also felt several powerful energy fluctuations rapidly heading in their direction. As he glanced back to take a look, multiple golden lights had already arrived.

"Friends from Ceng Hong Villa, please stop!" The so-called Captain cried out.

Lei Yu light exhaled before putting on a smiling face, "I wonder what matters you have for us?"

Chapter 255 - Appearance Of The Large Roc Emperor

The Captain smiled, "Ah, it's like this… That subordinate of mine is a newcomer and doesn't the rules. If he has offended the friends of Ceng Hong Villa, I hope you can forgive him."

After hearing those word, Lei Yu glanced at Big White before smiling, "There's no need to be so polite, after all, Elder Ceng Hong and the Large Roc Emperor are good friends."

"Those from Ceng Hong Villa are truly magnanimous, except…" The Captain made a face filled with hesitation.

"Except for what? Friend, you can be straightforward and tell us what you have to say." Lei Yu knew things wouldn't be this simple.

"Except that there are strict rules in the Large Roc Territory and my newly arrived subordinate doesn't know them too well. A single yellow crystal stone as the toll fee is a bit…"

"What you mean to say is that we need to pay some more right?" Asked Lei Yu as he ignored that Big White was pulling him back with his paws.

"Haha, I have incurred ridicule from this friend. We are only doing things by the rules so I hope we haven't offended you. We hope that the friends from Ceng Hong Villa can be magnanimous and forgive us!" The Captain laughed while cupping his hands with a very embarrassed look.

"I have no problems with that but… we left too hastily and forgot to bring more crystal stones with us, or else I would definitely offer more with open hands." Lei Yu slightly bowed with an apologetic look.

"Oh?" The Captain turned around to look at his men before facing Lei Yu again. "Then I'm really sorry. According to the rules, a single yellow crystal stone is not enough for the toll fee. My two friends, please go back to where you came from."

Lei Yu knew how precious crystal stones were. Yanrong and Tian Ye and previously said that just ten ordinary crystal stones could maintain food and clothing for a small town for a full year. And on his person was only a single yellow, blue, and purple crystal stone. Now this person wanted a lion's share so how could Lei Yu agree to it? And just because of this problem would force him to turn back was something Lei Yu would definitely not agree with.

"This friend, we truly have some important matters to attend to. How about this: Once we return, we will definitely give you all the necessary crystal stones, okay?" Lei Yu was hoping to make a final compromise.

"Sigh~" The Captain's face showed that he was in a difficult position. "It's not that I don't want to help you friends, but we do have our own difficulties. We have our responsibilities and don't dare to make any changes to them. If our superiors found out, we would certainly be punished. I hope these friends will understand and not make things difficult for us."

"Humph! You guys have gone too far!" Big White finally couldn't tolerate this anymore and roared out.

"Don't get angry! Don't get angry!" The Captain smiled, "It looks like your family's pet is much poorer in holding their emotions in compared to the owner."

Lei Yu narrowed his eyes while Big White loudly roared. His voice shook the sky before he coldly said: "You, will die a miserable death!"

"What do you plan on doing?!" The Captain was shocked and started retreating backwards. Several of his subordinates flapped their wings and flew over while drawing weapons from their waist. The weapons they held looked very similar to an eagle's claw.

"What am I going to do?" Big White floated forward, "My owner and the Large Roc Emperor have many years of friendship, yet you, a mere Nascent Soul stage birdman dare to spout out arrogant insults! This is equivalent of not putting my owner in your eyes! Today, you must all die!"

Big White's body turned into a white light. Lei Yu couldn't even see what happened and the next moment, several miserable cries were heard. In an instant, several people were completely torn into pieces while the Captain was left floating there alone with eyes full of fear.

Big White coldly said: "What? You scared now? When you said those words, did you think about the consequences? Let me tell you - it's too late for regrets!" One could only see a red light flash on Big White's forehead before a beam of light shot out. The speed was too fast to dodge and the red light had already penetrated through the Captain's chest. The fear in his eyes had not subsided yet and he had already lost the ability to breathe.

Big White coldly humphed once more before turning around, "Young master, let's go."

Lei Yu swallowed hard. These were six people at the Nascent Soul stage who were easily killed by Big White. Lei Yu was getting more and more curious as to what level Big White was at.

Around this time, a golden light in the distance flew off rapidly and disappeared without a trace while Lei Yu and Big White continued on their journey.

On a certain planet and a place surrounded by cliffs, a lone castle sat at one of the highest points. The castle gave off a faint golden glow that was strangely bright. The entrance to the castle happens to be not on the ground but in the air, where one would traverse through a golden beam of light.

In the main hall of the castle sat a person. This person was wearing a golden satin gown and on the chest area was embroidered with a majestic eagle soaring into the sky that looked very domineering.

Long golden hair was hanging loosely behind him. He had a protruding forehead and a pair of sharp eyes that looked like it could kill with a glance. On his back was a pair of huge wings resting on both sides. On either side of the wings stood a girl that was gently wiping the golden feathers on the wings with a silk handkerchief.

"Emperor! Something bad has happened!" A beam of golden light entered the main hall.

"Why are you panicking and losing all decorum? What happened?" Asked the middle-aged man atop of the throne.

"Several of our patrolling guards have been killed by someone!"

"What?!" The middle-aged man's eyes went wide, "Who has the guts to act so wildly in my territory?!"

"Who… who…"

"Who are they? Quickly tell me!"

"This little one didn't hear them mention it so I don't know who they are. But it's a young person and a white beast, and on the forehead of the white beast is a red ruby-like stone.

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, "Ceng Hong Villa's Big White?" He suddenly stood up. "Humph! He's not putting me, the Large Roc Emperor in his eyes! Take me there!"

"Yes! Understood!"

Lei Yu and Big White were both fly forth rapidly but when comparing speeds, Lei Yu was much slower. Lei Yu originally thought that the biggest advantage he had over others was his speed, so he never expected the gap between him and Big White would be so big.

"Young master, we should increase our speeds further. Killing the Large Roc Emperor's people in his territory, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous if he finds out. That guy always protects his own no matter what, so something bad might happen when dealing with him." Said Big White.

Lei Yu nodded, "Right, after all, this is his territory so let's hurry and get out of here!" After saying that, the two increased their speeds a bit more.

From a distance, two golden lights were approaching. "Emperor, it's them!"

The speed of the middle-aged man suddenly increased exponentially and leaving the person who spoke in the dust. No matter how much he tried, he couldn't catch up with the Large Roc Emperor's speed.

The speed of the middle-aged man was comparable to the speed of light. Less than a blink of the eye, the Large Roc Emperor stopped in front of Lei Yu and Big White. He floated there with his huge golden wings unfurled which had the span of at least five meters.

Big White was shocked and quickly lowered his head by saying: "Greetings Large Roc Emperor!"

Lei Yu glanced at Big White before looking at the person that had suddenly appeared. Knowing things didn't look good, he still had to give the other face. Lei Yu then cupped his hands, "Greetings Lar… Large Roc Emperor."
