Chapter 238: The Four Great Sea Kings

Ye Xuan once again asked, “Who are the four great sea kings of the East Sea?”

“You don’t know this? Did you sneak over from another sea? The four great sea dragon kings, the first one in rank is our Black Dragon King. This time, the flooding of the Magic City in the East Sea was initiated by the Black Dragon King. The second in rank is the Magic Whale King. Its kind has been continuously hunted by the island nation people, holding a deep grudge against them. It has been striving to overthrow the island nation and is making good progress. If it successfully destroys the island nation, it might surpass the Black Dragon King and become the leader of the four great sea kings.

Ranked third among the four great sea kings is the Mermaid King. The Mermaid King is half human, half fish, leading a powerful group of mermaids. However, they prefer not to conflict with humans and live in seclusion.

Ranked fourth is the Kunpeng, this guy preys on our dragon and serpent kind, being a major enemy of the Black Dragon King. The Black Dragon King has led several attacks against this guy, but at crucial moments, this guy grows wings and escapes, which is very despicable. Sooner or later, I will devour it!”

Upon hearing what the sea serpent said, Ye Xuan’s turtle face also showed a hint of seriousness. He hadn’t expected these mutated beasts to be so intelligent, not only able to communicate with each other but also to have divided their territories.

The future achievements of these four great sea kings seem quite impressive. Among them, the Magic Whale King is the future world-destroying Dragon Whale. It has lived up to expectations by successfully destroying the island nation and should be quite famous among the mutated beasts.

As for the Kunpeng, it is undoubtedly the shocking Kunpeng that caused the death of Mengli in the past! However, Ye Xuan had never heard of the Black Dragon King’s name in his later life.

It is likely that the Black Dragon King was devoured by the Kunpeng in a counterattack, right? Otherwise, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have completely missed hearing about it.

Ye Xuan’s guess was correct. Although the Black Dragon King is currently the strongest among the four great sea kings, as the saying goes, the taller the tree, the stronger the wind. The Black Dragon King has already aroused fear in the other sea kings.

Among them, the Mermaid King is relatively low-key, not participating in the conflicts of the other sea kings or launching attacks on humans, instead choosing to remain secluded. In the previous life, Ye Xuan had never heard of them until twenty years later.

As for the Magic Whale King and the Kunpeng, they view the Black Dragon King as a major enemy. In the previous life, a few years later, the Magic Whale King and the Kunpeng joined forces, ambushed the Black Dragon King, and then devoured it.

After devouring the Black Dragon King, the Kunpeng’s strength greatly increased. As for the Magic Whale King, it gained some of the Black Dragon King’s powers, acquiring some characteristics of the dragon race, which is why the Magic Whale King later came to be known as the world-destroying Dragon Whale.

Having been reborn, Ye Xuan had always wanted to know about the shocking Kunpeng’s news. Unexpectedly, things didn’t go as planned, and opportunities arose unexpectedly.

At this moment, Ye Xuan had learned almost everything he wanted to know. He immediately rushed forward, grabbed a few sea serpents with his claws, and tore them apart in no time.

He then said, “Mengli, by transforming into Xuanwu, I can communicate with the oceanic mutated beasts and even disguise myself as one of them. I plan to use this to gather intelligence on the East Sea mutated beasts so that I can deal with them more effectively in the future.”

In fact, gathering intelligence was only one aspect. The main goal was for Ye Xuan to eliminate the Kunpeng, the future shocking Kunpeng, and eliminate the threat to Mengli!

Upon hearing this, Su Mengli asked, “Is it necessary to transform into Xuanwu?”

Ye Xuan nodded and replied, “For now, yes. I will disguise myself as an mutated beast to investigate. Mengli, you should leave here first.”

Su Mengli looked worried and asked, “But, won’t it be too dangerous?”

Ye Xuan smiled and reassured her, “Don’t forget our Dragon and Phoenix Pendant. If there’s danger, I’ll teleport over.”

Su Mengli could only say, “Alright, then be careful!”

After Su Mengli left Ye Xuan’s back and flew out of the water, she saw the still surging sea water.

After Su Mengli emerged from the water, Long Hanjie and others also arrived. Long Hanjie transformed into his true dragon form, letting out a deafening dragon roar, attempting to stop the sea water.

Unfortunately, Long Hanjie’s dragon form had a low class of development. Although he could influence the weather when he appeared, bringing strong winds and dark clouds, he currently lacked the ability to control the sea, far inferior to the Black Dragon King, and thus couldn’t stop the rushing sea water.

After Long Hanjie’s failure, Zhou Yun also took action. She transformed into the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, surrounded by golden light, attempting to resist the surging sea water. However, she failed in less than two seconds.

Feeling a bit disheartened, they saw Su Mengli come out and immediately asked, “Mengli, where is Ye Xuan? Does he have a way to stop this sea water?”

Su Mengli shook her head and replied, “I’m not sure either. Ye Xuan transformed into Xuanwu and seems to have been recognized as one of the East Sea mutated beasts. He’s planning to go undercover and investigate.”

Long Hanjie furrowed his brow and said, “The sea water is still advancing. If we don’t stop it, the entire Magic City will be lost!”

Su Mengli shook her head and said, “I have no means to stop this sea water. We can only retreat for now.”

In the sea, Ye Xuan in his Xuanwu form continued to move forward. Suddenly, he felt an itch in his ear. After a moment, the Golden Cudgel flew out of his ear with a swish.

Looking at the Golden Cudgel, Ye Xuan suddenly remembered something. How could he have forgotten about the Golden Cudgel?

The As-You-Will Golden Cudgel has the ability to calm the sea. With the cudgel in hand, how could the sea water continue to flood?

In fact, as soon as Ye Xuan entered the sea, the Golden Cudgel wanted to come out. The sea was its territory, and it was eager to fly out.

However, when the Golden Cudgel entered Ye Xuan’s ear in his human form, it was just a small dwelling of about ten square meters. After a simple cleaning, it settled in.

But when Ye Xuan entered the sea and transformed into his Xuanwu form, the ten square meters of the small dwelling turned into a villa of several thousand square meters. This villa was like a maze.

The Golden Cudgel couldn’t harm its master and had to cautiously explore its way out in Ye Xuan’s Xuanwu ear, taking a full twenty minutes to finally fly out…
