Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 348 Meeting Angela Again

"Cough… Hahaha… Cough… Hahaha." Pang Zhen laughed and coughed simultaneously as Shen Xueyi and Zhang Fei [1] landed in front of him, and his condition worsened as blood continued to flow out of his body. "Cough… I didn't expect that you two already knew so much about our actions, and I foolishly fell into your trap. Did Pang Hong and Pang Gui tell you all about our plans?"

"That's right, those two are my slaves now, so they told me everything." Even so, Zhang Fei [1] looked regretful when he saw Pang Zhen's condition, especially since he wanted to enslave him like his two comrades. Regrettably, he used poison and demon miasma, compelling him to use his light abilities against him.

"This way, your Pang clan will become increasingly weaker, and you guys will no longer be able to act rampant like in the past."

"Cough... Is that so?" Pang Zhen asked with an evil smile on his face. "Our Pang Clan will never perish, as long as Pang De and the others are still alive. Moreover, you are not aware of our ancestors' terrifying strength and abilities, and they will come out of their seclusion soon. At that time, they will immediately attack and destroy you all, and our clan will become the sole ruler of this realm."

"Hehe." Zhang Fei [1] chuckled at Pang Zhen's words, but he then used some abilities from the shadow abyss scripture and the netherworld demon scripture, shocking not only him but also the people from the two clans after learning that he had the darkness element."

Shen Xueyi immediately looked at them and asked them not to say anything about Zhang Fei [1]'s darkness element. She also told them that she and the Liu Sisters had long known that he had the darkness element.

However, Shen Xueyi's explanation still left many questions in their minds, especially since he previously used such a powerful light ability, so he shouldn't possibly have the darkness element, but the facts say otherwise because he has both.

Zhang Fei [1] then spoke to Pang Zhen, who was staring at him in shock. "Are you curious as to how I got them? I don't know about the strength of your ancestors, let alone the strength of the Mo and Xie Clans' ancestors. However, I have prepared some things to stop them, and they will never expect that their own people will help me to destroy them."

Pang Zhen sighed in his heart after he realized that they had underestimated Zhang Fei [1] too much, and he was much more cunning than they had previously thought. He immediately committed suicide, using his last strength, because he did not want to become his slave, and he quickly breathed his last.

"What are you going to do with his corpse?" Shen Xueyi questioned Zhang Fei [1] as soon as he squatted beside Pang Zhen's corpse.

"I still need a lot of information from this guy, so I have to do something about him." Zhang Fei [1] then touched Pang Zhen's corpse and dripped some of his blood onto it. He also channeled his darkness element before using his nercromancy to summon his soul.

A black aura quickly surrounded Pang Zhen's corpse, but as soon as Zhang Fei [1] extracted his soul from his corpse, Shen Xueyi's and those people's expressions turned to shock.

Pang Zhen's expression changed to one of horror as soon as he saw Zhang Fei. "Do you think I'll let you just like this? Since I used one of my abilities to summon your soul, you are no different from Pang Hong, Pang Gui, and Pang Liyuan. Now tell us everything you know about the location of the fourth blood demon tree, the situation in the Mo and Xie Clans, and the plans all of your ancestors had."

Even though he didn't want that, Pang Zhen's soul started talking about some things, but Zhang Fei [1] was disappointed because he also didn't have any information about the location of the fourth blood demon tree, so only Pang De knew about it.

Pang Zhen's soul then told Zhang Fei [1] and the others about the two clans, which was really shocking to them, especially since their overall strength already exceeded all the clans in other regions—apart from the clans in the central region—without including their ancestors.

However, Zhang Fei [1] and the others let out a sigh of disappointment because Pang Zhen's soul did not know the exact details of those ancestors' plans because they had only conveyed everything to Pang De, and he had only told them the outline.

"Who are the people from those two clans that you know?" Zhang Fei asked Pang Zhen's soul again.

"I am quite familiar with Mo Changqiong, the patriarch of the Mo Clan, and Gu Sanxi is his wife. Besides them, I also have a good relationship with some of their elders, such as Mo Jingyun, Mo Zifeng, Mo Dabao, and Mo Chenxi. From the Xie Clan, I only know Xie Fanjing and Lai Rouyu, the current clan leaders, who are also Pang De's in-laws."

Zhang Fei [1] raised his eyebrows for a moment. "Is the Lai Clan as strong as the three clans?"

"No." Pang Zhen's soul answered by shaking his head. "The Lai Clan is just our puppet like the other minor clans, and Xie Fanjing took Lai Rouyu as his wife because he was fascinated by her beauty, so he brainwashed her to be completely loyal to him."

"What about the Gu Clan?" Zhang Fei [1] raised this question because Pang Liyuan had not previously mentioned the Gu Clan to Zhang Xiaolong.

"The Gu Clan is the fourth major clan, and they live in the dark forest located in the northernmost part of our region.

However, their strength is not as high as the other three clans, and they only have two cultivators with cultivation at the 10-Star Heaven Realm, both of whom are their current leaders, Gu Changsheng and Gu Jinglin." Zhang Fei [1] nodded repeatedly as he listened to Pang Zhen's soul.

"However, they have a special ability to control gu bugs, which have various types with different abilities, and one of them can control other people."

"Oh?" Zhang Fei [1] then remembered about the bugs that Pang Zhen had previously given to Cai Shangjun. "So you got those bugs from them, huh? What are their types and abilities? Why do you want to use them on me?"

Pang Zhen's soul shook its head at Zhang Fei [1] before answering him. "I don't know the exact type of those bugs, but after they enter your body, they will take over control of your mind and soul, and you will be completely under my control."

"I see." Zhang Fei [1] then turned to Shen Xueyi. "Do you still have questions for him?"

"I think we already have enough information about them." Shen Xueyi then thought for a while before continuing. "Unfortunately, we can't possibly fight them by ourselves with their overall strength being that high, so I thought of gathering the higher-ups of all the clans and sects to discuss this matter, including the clans from the central region, especially since their threat is real.

However, all of them are still in the demon cave to stabilize the seal on the demon portal, so there's no way we can do it now."

After hearing that, Zhang Fei [1] let out a heavy sigh and turned his gaze back to Pang Zhen's soul. Since there was no way he could help him fight them, he decided to use the demon absorbing to absorb his soul, which made Shen Xueyi and the others feel terrified of him. "Everything is finished now, and you can take care of the remaining members of the Cai and You Clan.

This way, the situation in all regions will be under control and calm for the time being."

They nodded in agreement with Zhang Fei [1], especially since the Pang Clan's strength had weakened with the loss of three of their main members, and their vassals in the southern region had all disappeared. Even so, they knew they couldn't lower their guard, especially since the clan still had many other members, and Pang De would probably assign his other clan members to look for new vassals.

Shen Xueyi then pulled back her artifact, causing the transparent dome to disappear, and Shen Yang landed in front of them before handing over the frightened Cai Qiu to her. After that, he led the members of the Shen Clan to clean up the Cai Clan, while the members of the Liu Clan went to clean up the You Clan.

After they returned to the Yin-Yang Pavilion, Shen Xueyi immediately handed Cai Qiu over to Lin Hao, instructing him to imprison her in the punishment hall for the time being. She then posed a question to Zhang Fei [1]. "What are your plans next?"

"I still haven't gotten any information about the fourth blood demon tree, so I can't do anything about it. However, I've ordered Pang Liyuan to dig up the information from his father, and I've also ordered him to do something about Xie Jingxian, so I can use her to monitor the Xie Clan.

As for the Mo Clan, I will use Pan Gui to lure out one of their members, and I will enslave that person." Shen Xueyi nodded in understanding at his explanation, but Zhang Fei [1] then looked away before continuing.

"At least the situation in all regions is now under control, and I'm sure Pang De won't be in a hurry to send his other clan members to look for new vassals, so I plan to go into seclusion for a long time, and you should also come with us."

"Eh?" Shen Xueyi was taken aback by that, but she herself was one of his partners, and she wanted to break through to the sovereign realm as quickly as possible, so she immediately agreed with Zhang Fei [1]. "Anyway, will your clone also enter seclusion with your partners, including Luan'er? If you do that, I will ask Shen Yang and the others to keep an eye on this sect."

"Yes." Zhang Fei [1] nodded to Shen Xueyi. "This clone will also enter seclusion, and I will take them all elsewhere so you can ask them to protect this sect."

"All right."

After that, they immediately parted ways, and Shen Xueyi returned to her private room while waiting for Shen Yang and the others to return. Meanwhile, Zhang Fei [1] went to see Yan Luan'er and Xi Zihua, which made the two women pleased after he told them about his plans. They quickly started dual-cultivating, especially since he had previously only dual-cultivated with Luo Yu and the others.

[Ding.]

[Reward: 62 green jewels.]

While Zhang Fei and Zhang Fei [1] were having fun with their women, the sun was almost setting in the Diyu Realm. Zhang Xiaolong, who had been waiting for Angela in his demon fox form for a long time, was able to smile after she appeared in front of him.

"Oh?" Angela was surprised when she saw Zhang Xiaolong, but she immediately ran over to him before hugging and caressing his smooth black fur. "Did I keep you waiting long? I had some important business in my previous sub-realm, so I could only come here now."

[Ding]

[You succeeded in mimicking the Alternate Respiration Ability of a Rainbow Demon Fish named Angela.]

Zhang Xiaolong looked at Angela and then licked her face, causing her to giggle at his actions. He felt that she was more childish than the other demon rulers. 'Do you think she will kill me if I use my half-fox form, Mei?'

[I don't know, master. However, Angela seems to be a good demon, and Janette has also said that she is a kind-hearted demon. Furthermore, she should already be aware that you are a male, so it's likely that she won't kill you.]

After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaolong decided to use his half-fox form, which caused Angela to be stunned for a moment before releasing him from her embrace. "Since when were you able to transform into this form?"

"Since we first met, Lord Angela." Zhang Xiaolong replied by smiling at her. "Actually, I accidentally walked past this area and heard you singing, which piqued my interest, so I decided to approach you. However, I was afraid that you would kill me if I used this form, so I didn't use it before."

"You're really a stupid fox, you know that?" Angela asked as she shook her head. "Even though I don't like other demon beasts besides aquatic ones, I wouldn't kill them for that kind of reason, but I might just throw you out of this place."

"Haha." That made Zhang Xiaolong laugh. "Are you going to chase me away now?"

"No." Angela answered by shaking her head. "Do you really like my singing?"

"Yes." Zhang Xiaolong nodded to Angela. "Even though I don't know about your song, I like your voice when you sing it, and I want to listen to it again."

Angela smiled when she heard that, and she immediately jumped into the sea while returning to her demon form. After that, she started swimming while singing the song, and the aquatic demon beasts immediately surrounded her while expressing their joy.

Zhang Xiaolong himself moved to the seaside and listened to Angela's singing. 'Her voice was really melodious, making me feel like I was hypnotized, and I really don't want to stop listening to him.'

Mei suddenly teased Zhang Xiaolong. [Master, if you want to continue listening to her sing, then you should think of a way to get her as soon as possible. Moreover, she also has cultivation veins, so you can teach her to become a demon cultivator, and you can listen to her singing forever.]

Zhang Xiaolong laughed at her teasing. 'Haha! Let's see what happens in the future, especially since Angela is unlikely to fall for me just like that, and she will probably kill me if I use my lust demon abilities on her.'
