King of Creation-Chapter 741 - 731: Restrictions

"Really?" Ye Zhen was overjoyed upon hearing this.

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King rolled his eyes at Ye Zhen, "When I speak, it’s as significant as nine cauldrons!"

"Alright then, can you return the Cloud Winged Tiger King to me first?" Ye Zhen asked the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King.

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King scratched his head and chuckled, "I almost forgot." He flicked his finger lightly, and the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

In a panicked roar from the tiger, the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten transformed into a flowing light and dashed into Ye Zhen’s arms. Ye Zhen, however, was staring at the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s miraculous technique with a look of surprise in his eyes.

This was almost like the skill of reviving someone!

"A Spirit Beast Ring crafted by the Beast Taming Sect, I still have one here!" the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King explained.

"Wow, this is the first time I’ve heard of this treasure. Big brother Monkey King, could you give me one?" Ye Zhen blatantly asked with a greedy face, clearly making an outright request.

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King rolled his eyes again, "In your dreams! Brothers share wealth, not treasures! Do you still want those inheritances from the Beast Taming Sect, or not? If you don’t take them now, I’m taking them back!"

"Yes yes yes, how could I not want them?" Ye Zhen hurriedly lunged toward each of the Sealing Formations.

The Inherited Treasures stored here by the Beast Taming Sect— even if Ye Zhen couldn’t use them, they could be sold at a good price; these were nearly out-of-print treasures.

While speaking, Ye Zhen struck the first Sealing Formation with a palm. Almost simultaneously, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King applied a Black Jade Divine Talisman that he had taken from the Formation Control Central Hall to his forehead. The Black Jade Divine Talisman dissolved in a flash, and a phantom that somewhat resembled the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King merged into his body.

Only then did the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King let out a sigh of relief, while a fierce Spirit Blaze surged around him, tinged with a mix of crimson and purple, blazing towards the iron chain locked on his spine.

Suddenly, countless mysterious Talisman Patterns emerged from the surface of the chain to resist the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s Spirit Blaze. Each pattern was immensely powerful, but one by one, they faded away under the continuous blaze.

Having lost the support of the formation, they were like water without a source—disappearing was only a matter of time!

"Beast Taming General Technique!"

"Beast-Control Secret Record!"

"Spirit Communication Beast Control Skill!"

After breaking through three Sealing Formations, the items inside were Jade Scrolls recording inherited secret techniques of the Beast Taming Sect, which left Ye Zhen somewhat disappointed— these items held little value for him.

"Puppet Spirit Record?"

When Ye Zhen opened the fourth Sealing Formation and saw it was a Jade Scroll, he was a bit let down; however, as soon as he saw what was marked on the scroll, he was overjoyed.

The Puppet Spirit Record, spoken of by the Hundred Poisons Master Lan Shuiqiao as a powerful Mysterious Technique of the era, not only recorded methods to control various puppets but also contained the secret techniques for making various puppets.

Moreover, since Lan Shuiqiao had not hesitated to snatch the other Long-Armed Fire Monkey King puppets’ Spirit-Sealing Puppet Orbs from Ye Zhen, Ye Zhen vaguely felt that Lan Shuiqiao might have other plans—perhaps he could find them in this Puppet Spirit Record.

"Hold on! Ye Zhen, you cannot take this Puppet Spirit Record!"

Just as Ye Zhen was about to take the Puppet Spirit Record, the Hundred Poisons Master Lan Shuiqiao suddenly stepped forward, slightly raised the Snake Staff in his hand, and subtly pointed it at a vital spot at the back of Ye Zhen’s head, clearly ready to act if Ye Zhen dared take the record.

Across him, seeing Lan Shuiqiao’s action, Hu Qingtong slightly furrowed his brows, clearly uneasy.

Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly turned cold, "Master Lan, what do you mean by this?"

In the meantime, the glow of Ye Zhen’s Purple Jade Battle Armor intensified as he began to fully prepare for defense while also looking towards the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, "I say, big brother, your word doesn’t seem to hold much weight, does it?"

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s expression suddenly darkened, and he shouted sternly, "Step back!"

Upon hearing this, Lan Shuiqiao immediately panicked, "Monkey King, this is..."

"Step back! I know what you’re thinking, and I know what that thing is! But my promise is worth its weight in gold. Compared to my freedom, what is this Puppet Spirit Record!" With a fierce shout, a surge of Evil Qi burst from the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King!

The color drained from the face of the Hundred Poisons Master Lan Shuiqiao under the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s fierce gaze, leaving him no choice but to reluctantly back down!

Ye Zhen gave a slight smile to the Hundred Poisons Master and then grandly tucked the Puppet Secret Record into his storage ring. Before Ye Zhen could finish his smile, Hu Qingtong suddenly spoke up, causing Ye Zhen’s expression to abruptly stiffen.

"The Monkey King is as good as his word, making him do something dishonest and disloyal is absolutely impossible! Therefore, Ye Zhen can take this Puppet Spirit Record.

However, for the future consideration of the Demon Race, it’s still good to impose some restrictions on Ye Zhen!" Hu Qingtong suddenly said.

To Ye Zhen’s surprise, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King did not object this time and looked towards Hu Qingtong, "Little fox, let’s hear it, what kind of restrictions?"

As he spoke, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King suddenly gasped in surprise, "You’ve taken the vow of celibacy? You are so young, and already taken the vow of celibacy? When the Green Fox take this vow, it’s forever..."

"Monkey King, don’t ask, and it’s none of your business!"

Suddenly, Hu Qingtong harshly interrupted the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s question, leaving the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King somewhat dumbfounded.

At that moment, the Hundred Poisons Master Lan Shuiqiao, reminded by the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, was also stunned, staring incredulously at Hu Qingtong’s tied-up hair bun.

The previous battle had been extremely fierce, hovering between life and death, and Lan Shuiqiao hadn’t noticed this detail; now realizing it, he immediately displayed a horrified expression.

"Grand Hall Master, how could you......"

Hu Qingtong silenced the Hundred Poisons Master Lan Shuiqiao with her gaze, "This is my personal matter, don’t interfere. Now, let’s plan for the future of the Demon Race!"

"Interesting, the younger generation is becoming more intriguing, increasingly inscrutable! First, a youngster proficient in Earth Escape, and now a bound-hair Green Fox, strange, indeed very strange!" the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King exclaimed.

Lan Shuiqiao looked as if he’d seen a ghost, barely believing what was before his eyes.

However, Ye Zhen was somewhat perplexed. Listening to them, it seemed that the Green Fox’s tied hair was a severe matter, but he couldn’t fathom how severe it could be.

After all, which woman doesn’t groom her own hair?

If they don’t change their hairstyle several times a day, isn’t it just tying up their hair? What’s there to make a fuss about?

However, Ye Zhen vaguely felt that this Green Fox’s hair tying might have something to do with him!

Previously, when he was with Hu Qingtong in that hall, he hadn’t smelled the fragrance of her long hair, as it seemed to be let down at that time.

Could it be that it was tied up after that?

"Monkey King, the impact of the Puppet Spirit Record on the Demon Race is too significant. Even with your heroic excellence, you could not avoid being trapped for seven to eight hundred years, enduring hardships before you could escape!

If it spreads, it could have a disastrous effect on our Demon Race, so some restrictions are necessary!" Hu Qingtong said.

Hearing this, the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King nodded, "That makes sense, let’s hear it, how do we impose restrictions? Of course, the premise is that I should not go back on my word!"

Hu Qingtong glanced meaningfully at Ye Zhen, "Monkey King, let Ye Zhen invoke the Innate Divine Soul to swear a poisoned oath! Apart from his own practice, he must not impart this Puppetry Technique to anyone in any way, whether Human Clan or Demon Race!

Moreover, he absolutely cannot apply the Puppetry Technique to any Demon Beasts that have a Cultivation reaching Spirit Beast level!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen immediately became angry. Hu Qingtong was really cutting off all ties after getting out of bed—such restrictions made owning the Puppet Spirit Record no different from not having it at all.

Saying this, Ye Zhen directly handed the Puppet Secret Record back to the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King, "With such restrictions, this thing is just as good as trash; I’d rather not have it. Big brother, you should take it back!"

"Er....."

The expression on the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King’s face immediately stiffened.

Seeing this, Hu Qingtong couldn’t help but laugh, "Young Hero Ye, the Puppet Spirit Record isn’t only capable of controlling the Demon Race, its uses are many!

It’s said that not only Demon Beasts but also the Human Clan, and even some mechanical beasts, as long as they have a Divine Soul, can be enslaved.

We’ve only restricted its use on the Demon Race, not on other human clans or mechanical beasts!"

Hearing Hu Qingtong’s words, Ye Zhen’s anger couldn’t be held back, "You forbid me from using it on the Demon Race, yet you want me to enslave the Human Clan, what kind of reasoning is that?"

"Big brother, if you want to back out, just say it straight, no need to go roundabout restricting me, seriously!" An enlightened Ye Zhen directly ignored Hu Qingtong and instead engaged the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King.

The key to this issue still lay with the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King; as long as he spoke up, any barriers posed by others would be of no concern.

"This, brother...."

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King was somewhat troubled, his gaze turning back to Hu Qingtong, "Little Fox, how about we only enforce the first restriction? By himself, how much turmoil can he stir up?"

Hu Qingtong remained firm, "Monkey King, as you’ve also mentioned, this Young Hero Ye is not simple! There’s something you still don’t know—this Young Hero Ye, despite being pursued and blocked by over a thousand Heaven Rank Demon Beasts, killed seven Heavenly Level High Grade Demon Beasts!

Including one that was only half a step away from becoming a Departure Spirit Beast—the Goldback Stone Beast King!

Moreover, this Young Hero Ye possesses a Divine Soul Secret Technique not much different from the young lady’s Enchantment Divine Skill. Once his Cultivation improves, ordinary Spirit Beasts won’t be able to resist!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhen was utterly disappointed; Hu Qingtong was ruthlessly heartless, wholeheartedly considering the Demon Race, not caring about his feelings in the least. He immediately felt a chilling sensation in his heart.

"Young Hero Ye, why don’t you first take a look at the Puppet Secret Record? We’ve only restricted a part of it! After you read it, you might find a pleasant surprise!" Hu Qingtong said, looking intently at Ye Zhen.

The Long-Armed Fire Monkey King also chimed in repeatedly, "Right, right, right, brother, take a look first. Moreover, since we’ve imposed restrictions on you, we can also offer you some compensation. Whatever compensation you want, just say it, as your brother, I won’t hesitate for a moment!"

"Compensation?"

Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly shifted, his eyes turning towards a corner where Yangh Yiguan lay at the brink of death. A bold idea suddenly emerged in his mind! (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote and support at qidian.com. Mobile users can read at m.qidian.com.)
