Chapter 456 - 446 Third Prince
Next, Huang Yi and Bai Fan followed the captain to the Dragon Fang Battleship’s cockpit. Under Bai Fan’s direction, the sailors turned the Dragon Fang Battleship in a new direction and set off at high speed.
To save time, the sailors employed the maximum power, tossing heaps of Magic Stones into the Magic Furnace as if money were no object. The tremendous power propelled the Dragon Fang Battleship through the waves, with the spray at the bow torn apart by brute force as if it took flight.
The Dragon Fang Battleship was much faster than the Deep Sea Battleship. Glazed Glass Island, which would take Bai Fan’s small fishing boat a full five to six days to reach, was reached by the Dragon Fang Battleship in just three hours.
By this time, Bai Fan and Huang Yi had already left the cockpit and were standing on the outer deck, where the fierce seewind blew about, causing Huang Yi’s hair to dance wildly.
"Look! There lies Glazed Glass Island. Ten years ago, when I first went to sea to fish, I stumbled upon this sea area and caught a glimpse of it from afar. Since then, I have never been able to forget that beautiful place," Bai Fan suddenly stretched out his hand, pointing towards the distant ocean.
Following the direction of Bai Fan’s pointing, Huang Yi saw that at the far end of the boundless ocean, under the moonlight’s illumination on the waves, an island emerged, flickering with a dream-like glow. It shimmered in multi-colors, dazzlingly beautiful, like a bright pearl under the night sky.
As the Dragon Fang Battleship raced forward, the area became clearer and started to reveal its full grandeur.
It was a massive island, covered in forests, and at its center was a stunningly beautiful Lustrous Glass Palace. The colorful glass constructions rose up one after another, arranged systematically and emitting a crystal-clear radiance under the moonlight, reflecting into the night sky and filled with a childlike charm.
The island was aptly named Glazed Glass Island; it appeared to be straight out of a fairy tale world.
"Big brother, the sailors say there are hidden reefs ahead, and the Dragon Fang Battleship is too big to navigate through," the captain reported to Huang Yi just then.
"I understand, I’ll go over myself!" Huang Yi nodded, spread the wings of his transformation, and soared from the deck, flying alone towards Glazed Glass Island.
Huang Yi flew swiftly and soon arrived above Glazed Glass Island.
As he was about to head towards the central Lustrous Glass Palace on the island, a figure suddenly appeared ahead, standing still in the void, hands clasped behind their back, staring firmly at him while exuding a powerful aura.
This person’s back was topped with a peculiar and sturdy shell, their body covered in scales, with gills on both sides of the jaw, a typical sea Race.
Huang Yi immediately stopped. The fact that this person could stand in the void indicated that their strength was at least above the Holy Domain Rank, a Holy Domain Warrior, more than capable of killing him effortlessly.
"Please leave. This isn’t a place you can come," the Holy Domain Warrior said to Huang Yi, with an aloof tone filled with undeniable authority.
"I apologize, I do not mean to disturb you, but this time, I have a very important matter that I need to communicate to the Third Imperial Prince," Huang Yi said as he slightly bowed, flicking his finger and producing an item.
The item was a shining golden Token, inscribed with the shape of a continent – it was undoubtedly his Continent Guardian’s Order.
"Continent Guardian’s Order! You are the God of Slaughter?" The Holy Domain Warrior recognized the Token in Huang Yi’s hand at a glance and guessed Huang Yi’s identity.
Huang Yi nodded, "Yes, I am the Guardian of the Hero’s Continent, one might say your neighbor. I have some very crucial matters to report to the Third Imperial Prince. Please take me to him."
The Holy Domain Warrior looked at Huang Yi, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "All right, given your status and position as the God of Slaughter, you indeed have the qualifications to meet our Third Imperial Prince. Follow me!"
With that, the Holy Domain Warrior walked through the void towards the Lustrous Glass Palace on the island, and Huang Yi, flapping his wings, closely followed behind.
With the guidance, Huang Yi faced no further obstacles and easily entered the Lustrous Glass Palace. The exquisite glass construction under his feet appeared even more beautiful up close. Finely crafted tiles of glass, like dragon scales, lay below, twinkling in multi-colors, turning the entire palace into a work of art.
Seeing Huang Yi’s expression, the Holy Domain Warrior said with a touch of pride, "Our Lustrous Glass Palace is a jewel of the Ocean, personally commissioned by the Sea Dragon Emperor for the construction by a Divine Craftsman for the Third Prince. The Third Prince, being the Sea Dragon Emperor’s youngest son, is deeply favored by His Majesty, who visits the Lustrous Glass Palace every year. After the Dark King Uk’ar’s demons took the lives of the Eldest Imperial Prince and the Second Imperial Prince thirty years ago, the Sea Dragon Emperor has been in mourning, only showing a smile once again twenty-three years ago upon the birth of the Third Imperial Prince."
Hearing this, Huang Yi gained more confidence in his mission for the day. With the Sea Dragon Emperor’s Eldest and Second Imperial Princes killed by the forces of The Seven Archdemons, the animosity was evident. This expedition to stop the Giant General should be of significant interest to the Sea Dragon Emperor.
Before long, the Holy Domain Warrior had brought Huang Yi to the central area of the Lustrous Glass Palace and immediately descended. Huang Yi followed, landing on the ground as well.
"The area near the Third Imperial Prince is off-limits to flying, so please walk with me," the Holy Domain Warrior explained as he started heading forward on foot.
The two walked for a considerable distance and eventually stopped in front of the most beautiful palace at the very heart of the Lustrous Glass Palace. The place was heavily guarded, with sentries everywhere. Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals wielding long spears stood guard here, each of them at the Holy Domain Rank, and at the moment, they were all watching Huang Yi alertly, their majestic gazes almost tangible.
"Please inform the Third Imperial Prince that the Continent Guardian, God of Slaughter, seeks an audience," said the guide, the Holy Domain Warrior, stopping and respectfully conveying the message to the leader of the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals.
"God of Slaughter?" The leader, a Holy Domain Warrior in the guise of a crab, couldn’t help but take a second look at Huang Yi upon hearing his identity. Then he nodded and immediately went into the palace to make the announcement.
Huang Yi stood outside, waiting patiently. The remaining Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals watched him, their imposing gazes also filled with a hint of curiosity. Huang Yi frequently caused World-level system announcements, and everyone around the world knew some of his deeds to a greater or lesser extent, NPCs included.
"Alright, the Third Imperial Prince is very interested in you, God of Slaughter. Please, come in," soon enough, the commanding officer reappeared and nodded to Huang Yi, his tone friendly.
Huang Yi nodded back at him and strode inside.
The inside of the palace was even more magnificent. The lustrous tiles on the floor changed colors with his gentle steps, and the surroundings were filled with playful decorations, including huge corals winding along the walls and luminous seaweeds hanging like curtains.
"Your Highness, the Prince, stop running!" Just then, a woman’s voice came from one of the rooms.
When Huang Yi walked over, he immediately saw behind the seaweed curtain was a bedroom. At that moment, three beautiful maids were chasing after a child who appeared to be around thirteen or fourteen, innocent and charming. With delicate and tender skin, his big watery eyes were extremely adorable, and with two dragon horns on his head, he made funny faces at the maids with a naughty expression.
This child should be Jin Jiao, the Third Prince of the Sea Dragon Emperor. Dragon Clan lives were long, and although Jin Jiao looked very young, he was actually in his twenties. Although Jin Jiao was of the Dragon Clan, his physical features were a bit like those of an Eastern Dragon, unlike the Western Dragon of the White Dragon Clan that had wings.
"Ahem, I have seen the Third Imperial Prince," Huang Yi coughed lightly outside the door.
"Hmm?" Jin Jiao’s eyes lit up, and he sprang to Huang Yi’s presence, tilting his head up curiously.
"Are you the God of Slaughter?" Jin Jiao asked Huang Yi with wide and curious eyes.
"Yes! I have an urgent matter to discuss with you," Huang Yi nodded, looking down at Jin Jiao, and suddenly thought of Xiao Chunzi. The two children did look a bit alike, with big eyes and very cute.
"Wow, I’ve finally seen you! I’ve heard about your legendary stories!" Jin Jiao became immediately excited, grasped Huang Yi’s hand, and circled around him, carefully examining him with joy painted all over his face.
"How about we become brothers, I acknowledge you as my older brother? I am a prince, after all! After my father passes away, I’ll be the Sea Dragon Emperor, donned in Sea Dragon Emperor Armor, holding the Sea-Calming Divine Staff! Pretty impressive, right?" Jin Jiao patted his chest, speaking to Huang Yi.
Just as Huang Yi was about to reply, he suddenly received a system prompt—
"[System Prompt]: The Third Prince of the Sea Dragon Emperor, Jin Jiao, has long admired you and initiates a brotherhood contract with you. Do you agree?"
Huang Yi was slightly startled and chose to agree.
"Your Highness, it’s time for your bath!" At that moment, the three maids finally caught up, arriving behind Jin Jiao, drenched in perspiration and gasping for breath.
"Oh? Perfect timing!" Jin Jiao looked at Huang Yi, then back at the maids, his alert eyes spinning before he said, "Big Brother God of Slaughter, you’ve come such a long way to find me, you must be tired! How about I let the three sisters bathe you? It would be fun," he said innocently with a laugh, thinking it a great idea.
Upon hearing this, the three beautiful maids couldn’t help but turn to look at Huang Yi, their cheeks blushing with shyness.
"But, I have an even more important matter!" Huang Yi looked at Jin Jiao gravely and said, "Please take me to your father, the Sea Dragon Emperor. I have a matter of life and death to discuss with your father!"(To be continued.
