Divine King of Honour-Chapter 652: Play Along with Your Acting
"Palace Master, you flatter me too much, my abilities are actually quite ordinary, and still far inferior compared to yours,"
the Demon Snake Elder said.
"Demon Snake Elder, you're being too modest. Everyone in the Eastern Sea knows of your abilities, which include the power to see through the destiny of others," the Sea Demon King spoke up.
The Demon Snake Elder chuckled, feigning humility, "Saying I can see through destiny is an exaggeration, I can only predict a person's potential. As for the true trajectory of their fate, it remains unpredictable."
"That's enough, Demon Snake Elder. What do you think of young brother Xu Nian's potential? I tell you, although he is a human, he is not yet twenty years old and has already reached the Battle Emperor Level. His potential is certainly not small," said the Sea Demon King with a smile.
"Oh? Brother Xu Nian is so young? Then I must take a good look," the Demon Snake Elder said, adopting an astonished expression.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian chuckled to himself.
The Sea Demon King and the Demon Snake Elder were alternating in their act.
They indeed performed with extraordinary focus.
Had he not known their trickery in advance, he might have actually believed them to be genuine.
"Eh, strange, very strange."
Just then, the Demon Snake Elder let out a light gasp.
"What's the matter, Senior Demon Snake?" Xu Nian asked, feigning surprise.
"Brother Xu Nian, your life pattern seems a bit complex. Could you come closer so I can have a better look?" the Demon Snake Elder asked, a look of astonishment on his face.
"Of course!" Xu Nian smiled.
After saying this, he walked toward the Demon Snake Elder.
Finally, he stood still in front of the Demon Snake Elder.
The Demon Snake Elder had also stood up by this time and walked around Xu Nian, appraising him with his eyes, making sounds of admiration.
"Demon Snake Elder, have you discovered something?" the Sea Demon King asked with a smile.
"Reporting to the Palace Master, brother Xu Nian's life pattern is indeed peculiar. I must say it's the toughest I've ever seen. I must say, brother Xu Nian definitely has the potential to become an Immortal and ascend to the Immortal Realm," the Demon Snake Elder said.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian's face also showed a smile.
The Demon Snake Elder really was seriously spouting nonsense.
The expressions on the faces of the several Demon Emperors below also revealed surprise, but in the depths of their surprised eyes was a thick sense of mockery.
It was clear that they knew of the Sea Demon King's plans.
This moment was nothing more than them playing along with the Sea Demon King's act.
"Oh, brother Xu Nian's life pattern is that strong? It seems I, Hei Ming, also have a friend who is an Immortal. Brother Xu Nian, if you become an Immortal, don't forget me!" Hei Ming said with a laugh.
"Haha, Palace Master, what are you saying? If I become an Immortal, I would naturally not forget the great kindness of the Palace Master," Xu Nian laughed, pretending to be prideful.
Standing behind Xu Nian, the Demon Snake Elder's eyes suddenly flashed with a green light, then he lunged forward and bit towards Xu Nian's neck.
Xu Nian felt the movement behind him, but did not dodge.
Instead, he allowed the Demon Snake Elder to bite him.
"Demon Snake Elder, what is this..." Xu Nian asked, feigning great surprise.
However, the Demon Snake Elder just gave a cold smile.
The Sea Demon King, sitting above in the great hall, had also stood up by now, with a cold smile on his face.
"Xu Nian, did you really think the Demon Snake Elder possessed the ability to see through life patterns? I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, he has the ability to swallow memories. Rest assured, very soon I will know all the secrets you hold, and that Token on you will become mine," said the Sea Demon King, looking at Xu Nian with a cold smile.
The Eight-clawed King and the White Flood Dragon King, as well as others, also revealed sneers on their faces.
The woman of the Eight-star Demon Emperor Level, however, wore a cold expression, tinged with disappointment.
"Sea Demon King, are you deceiving me?" Xu Nian widened his eyes in a feigned shock as he spoke.

Since the Sea Demon King was acting with him, he would continue to play along.
Let's see who would have the last laugh.
"Haha, that's right, Xu Nian, you are truly too naive. Did you really think the Spirit Pill I gave you earlier was real? That was nothing but a half-finished product, and yet you naïvely believed it. Did you honestly think I would entrust my fate in you?" The Sea Demon King said with a mocking face.
"Sea Demon King, you are despicable!" Xu Nian said, his face full of anger.
"Haha, despicable? This is called war without hatred of deceit. Xu Nian, soon all your memories will be devoured by the Demon Snake Elder, and then I will surely unearth the secrets hidden within you, and you will become a complete idiot," the Sea Demon King laughed heartily.
The Demon Emperors nearby also showed mocking looks in their eyes.
Especially the Eight-clawed King, who said with extreme scorn, "Hmph, a lowly human who dares to make me kneel, after you become an idiot, I will torture you bit by bit and feed your body to my offspring."
The Eight-clawed King held a strong hatred toward Xu Nian.
This Xu Nian had actually made him kneel in front of so many people.
Seeing that Xu Nian was about to become an idiot, how could he not feel delighted?
Upon hearing the words of the Eight-clawed King and the Sea Demon King, Xu Nian's face showed a strange cold smile.
"Look carefully, is it really my memories that are being devoured?" Xu Nian said with a faint smile.
All the people around were stunned for a moment, then looked towards the Demon Snake Elder at Xu Nian's neck.
They saw Xu Nian swiftly grab the Demon Snake Elder's hair, plucking him right off his neck.
At this moment, the Demon Snake Elder did not resist at all, simply being held firmly in Xu Nian's hand.
"You... How could you... absorb memories?" The Demon Snake Elder, though held in Xu Nian's grasp, was still somewhat lucid.
However, he spoke with difficulty.
He could feel his memories rapidly fading away.
And the one causing all of this was none other than Xu Nian.
The instant he had attacked Xu Nian, he felt as if his Spiritual Sense Power had struck against a golden bell.
But in the next moment, his Spiritual Sense was bound by a terrifying force.
Leaving him completely immobilized.
And as a sucking force came, the memories within his soul were being wildly extracted.
He understood the consequences of having his memories extracted better than anyone else.
So as he felt his memories rapidly slipping away, his eyes became filled with extreme terror.
The Sea Demon King and the Eight-clawed King and the others were also stunned.
What was happening?
Wasn't Xu Nian supposed to be the one whose memories were being absorbed by the Demon Snake Elder?
Why was it that the Demon Snake Elder's memories were being absorbed by Xu Nian instead?
Xu Nian looked at the shocked faces of the Sea Demon King and the Eight-clawed King, his lips curling into a smirk.
"Sea Demon King, did you really think I was unaware of your plans? Did you actually believe I didn't know the Spirit Pill you gave me was unfinished? All that just now was me simply playing along with your act," Xu Nian said with a sneer.
Upon hearing this, the Sea Demon King's face instantly turned sour, and a surge of anger welled up in the depths of his eyes.
