Cloud-Out Empire's Dou King Experts

Jia Ma Empire.

During this period, the most talked-about event throughout the Imperial Capital was the Alchemist Grand Meeting. Many alchemists had traveled from all over just to participate in it.

As for Shen Shihuang, he had spent these past few days simply wandering around the Imperial Capital. After all, since this was his first time transmigrating, it was only reasonable to take in the local customs and culture—who knew, he might even trigger another check-in location.

Although he currently possessed the strength of a Dou Zong, he lacked any real foundation. Compared to the Dou Zong powerhouses of established factions, he was still quite lacking, especially in terms of Dou Techniques. During this time, he had also attended several auctions held by the Mittel Clan.

Hmm.

They were quite spectacular, but there was nothing suitable for him.

I don't need to worry about Heavenly Flames for now, nor do I need to fret over cultivation methods. Although I only have one Dou Technique, it's enough for now.

Shen Shihuang took stock of what he currently possessed.

Hmm.

Just three things.

Not a single item more. Compared to other transmigrators, his inventory was truly pathetic.

"However."

Shen Shihuang looked toward the high mountain in the distance: Misty Cloud Mountain.

"Yun Shan has already advanced to the Dou Zong level by now, and the Hall of Souls protectors are likely within the Misty Cloud Sect as well. It's a pity that those Hall of Souls protectors don't have anything suitable for me; otherwise, I might have been able to loot them."

Shen Shihuang's long-term goal for now was to nurture the Taisui Flame and, in the meantime, raise the grade of the 'Ten Thousand Year Technique'. As for soul bodies? He already had a plan.

That was the people from the Hall of Souls.

Although he had no grievances with the Hall of Souls for the time being, he intended to use Xiao Yan to obtain the origin of other Heavenly Flames. Sooner or later, he would clash with the Hall of Souls, and to maintain a good relationship with Xiao Yan, he would inevitably have to become an enemy of the Hall of Souls.

"The Misty Cloud Sect will be the first time."

"If I make another move on the road to his destination, that should be about enough."

"Then, I'll just wait another three years and make one more move when the time comes."

Shen Shihuang looked over his plan and praised it as perfect.

"For now, let's call it the First Three-Year Plan."

"And within these three years, I should be able to obtain two Heavenly Flame origin energies, or perhaps even more."

A plan was just a plan, but implementing it was not easy; after all, human nature was involved.

"There really is no shortcut to becoming stronger; it is truly difficult," Shen Shihuang sighed as he looked at his First Three-Year Plan.

Outside the Imperial Capital.

There was a lovely peach blossom forest. Shen Shihuang had spent most of his time here lately, occasionally reminiscing about his lost youth. Who would have thought that after transmigrating into this world, he would wake up as a twenty-year-old young man?

Hmm.

He didn't actually know his exact age.

But everyone else took him for a young man.

He also took the opportunity to fondly recall the warmth of Queen Medusa's body...

"Hmm?"

Just as Shen Shihuang was enjoying the local wine, his eyelids twitched slightly, and he looked toward a certain spot.

"Who are those people?"

Beside Shen Shihuang.

Followed a maid with superior features.

She had been sent to him by the Mittel Clan. As a young man whose aura made even Hai Bodong feel terrified, the Mittel Clan knew how to conduct themselves well: You're new here? No problem, let me send you a tour guide.

"My Lord."

"Judging by the clothes those people are wearing, they should be from the Cloud-Out Empire," the maid said, her face showing a hint of apprehension.

Cloud-Out Empire?

Shen Shihuang had some impression of them: "The ones who like to play with poison?"

The maid nodded.

"I guessed that My Lord would be here."

At this moment.

Ya Fei swayed her alluring figure, bringing a maid with her as she walked toward Shen Shihuang.

"Miss Ya Fei." Upon seeing Ya Fei, the maid quickly bowed respectfully.

Ya Fei walked to Shen Shihuang's side, bringing a wave of fragrance with her.

Shen Shihuang's nose twitched slightly, and he said, "At this hour, shouldn't you be busy at the auction house? Why have you come here?"

Ya Fei smiled as she poured wine into Shen Shihuang's cup, then reclined lazily on the chair beside him. Her mountain-like peaks were eye-catching, and her slender waist, which could be encircled by a single hand, invited wild fantasies.

Her red lips, slightly parted, carried an air of infinite charm.

"Given your status, My Lord, the Mittel Clan naturally holds you in the highest regard."

"Should you have any needs, My Lord, the Mittel Clan will do its utmost to satisfy them."

Following Shen Shihuang's gaze.

Ya Fei saw those people from the Cloud-Out Empire, and the smile on her face faded: "My Lord, that man is the Poison Rakshasa of the Cloud-Out Empire. It is rumored that he is already a six-star Dou Wang. I did not expect him to be the one leading their delegation this time."

"A six-star Dou Wang?"

Shen Shihuang had no concept of how strong a Dou Wang was. After all, he had awakened at the peak of the Dou Huang realm, and after his intimate encounter with Queen Medusa, he had successfully advanced to a one-star Dou Zong. Therefore, he was unclear about the power of a Dou Wang.

His only feeling was.

That he could kill the man at any moment.

"Haha!"

Just as Shen Shihuang withdrew his gaze, that Dou Wang powerhouse from the Cloud-Out Empire actually walked toward them.

"Isn't this Miss Ya Fei of the Mittel Clan?"

"I never expected Miss Ya Fei to be here meeting a lover in private! Looking at his appearance, he seems a bit frail; I wonder if he can satisfy Miss Ya Fei's needs?"

A foul stench rushed into Shen Shihuang's nose.

Shen Shihuang raised his eyes and glanced at him indifferently.

"Whose dog wasn't leashed properly? Barking wildly here?"

Upon hearing Shen Shihuang's words, Poison Rakshasa's expression changed.

"Brat, do you know who you are talking to?"

Poison Rakshasa looked at Ya Fei: "Miss Ya Fei, it seems the fellow you chose isn't very capable!"

Ya Fei ignored him.

She said to Shen Shihuang: "Shall we head back first?"

"Leaving?"

Poison Rakshasa blocked Shen Shihuang's path, his eyes shamelessly scanning Ya Fei's body with greed, even unable to resist licking his lips. Shen Shihuang could understand this; if he hadn't tasted Queen Medusa, he feared he might not have been able to restrain himself when faced with a stunner like Ya Fei.

Seeing Poison Rakshasa's gaze, disgust filled Ya Fei's eyes.

"Poison Rakshasa, you had best be careful with your words. My Mittel Clan is not afraid of you," Ya Fei said. "This gentleman is a distinguished guest of my Mittel Clan. Don't make us have our Great Elder come to have a 'talk' with you later."

Poison Rakshasa laughed.

"Teng Shan?"

"Heh, once this Alchemist Grand Meeting concludes, it's uncertain if your Jia Ma Empire will even have any face left. By then, what could Teng Shan possibly dare to do to me?" Poison Rakshasa licked his lips with a scarlet tongue, staring at Ya Fei.

"Instead, I want to experience Miss Ya Fei's... right now."

As he spoke, Poison Rakshasa reached out toward Ya Fei.

However.

BANG!!

Before Poison Rakshasa could even get close to Ya Fei, his entire body flew backward, landing in the distance like a dead dog.

"You make me very uncomfortable."

Shen Shihuang slowly stood up.

Seeing this.

Ya Fei grabbed Shen Shihuang's arm: "My Lord, I have heard that Poison Rakshasa has some connections with the royal family of the Cloud-Out Empire."

Shen Shihuang smiled slightly.

He looked at Ya Fei: "Do you think I would fear the Cloud-Out Empire?"

Ya Fei suddenly realized.

The man before her was a powerhouse who even Elder Hai feared greatly. One could only imagine the strength of someone who could make the former Ice Emperor wary—he must be at least a seven-star Dou Huang, right?

Fear the Cloud-Out Empire?

No.

It should be the Cloud-Out Empire that fears him.

"This guy is simply courting death!" Ya Fei looked coldly at Poison Rakshasa.
