Chapter 18: Chapter 17: Get Started
Luo Feng sat there drinking, not paying any attention to the Vice President of the Blood Python Association.
Having enclosed himself in the Land of Origin for over an era, he had fully developed his Perfect Divine Body to its pinnacle on one hand, and on the other hand, he had preliminarily mastered many secret techniques, turning his potential into strength to some extent.
He was no longer limited to the lone move "Blade of Life and Death" that he had used when he confronted Hei Duomo. Now, Luo Feng was itching for a challenge, eager to encounter more formidable opponents.
"Within Huyang City, the truly powerful experts could be rated as the top few of the Five Great Families, the leaders of the nineteen Dark Forces, as well as some leaders of superpowers in the local divisions of Huyang City, or some reclusive old oddities..." Luo Feng preliminarily identified his sufficiently strong opponents based on the information given by his friend Shang Tianyan.
Those opponents, they were the ones who ignited Luo Feng's fighting spirit.
The Vice President "Lai Mo" of the Blood Python Association, merely a Vice President within a faction of the Dark Forces, how strong could he be?
"Supreme Lord Luo He, does the Vice President come here personally to visit you?" The member of the Blood Python Association trembled with fear, worried about being scolded by the Vice President during the report.
Luo Feng's gaze pierced through the temple doors to the far distance, "Your Vice President has heard everything loud and clear!"
If the Formation of the Orchid Star Hall had blocked sound, naturally the outside world could not pry. But Luo Feng did not conceal anything, with the Formation of the Orchid Star Hall wide open, everything he said... could be seen and heard by any eternal true god who had an interest in observing this place!
"Yes, this subordinate will take his leave." The member of the Blood Python Association, overwhelmed with fear, quickly left.
The green-robed attendant and Araya inside the hall were also extremely nervous.
"Supreme." The green-robed attendant transmitted his voice, "Vice President Lai Mo is fierce and tyrannical, the Supreme humiliating him like this, he will definitely not tolerate it."
"This is called humiliation?" Luo Feng smiled as he lifted his cup, "You still don't quite understand."
...
At the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
The President "Mu Yang" and Vice President "Lai Mo" of the Blood Python Association were seated next to each other. They initially hadn't paid much attention to outside affairs. But numerous messages transmitted by Duan Moyun annoyed them both.
An incident like this happening at the Dream Flower Tower would definitely spread within Huyang City. With the President and Vice President present at Dream Flower Tower, if they acted as if they saw nothing, it would only lead to rumors that the Blood Python Association was fearful.
The Blood Python Association was one of the nineteen Dark Forces in Huyang City.
The Dark Forces were overbearing and wild, relying on strength! Without strength, there was no right to control those territories.
"After all, he is an eternal true god. Have a talk with him, settle this minor issue," President Mu Yang said.
"Alright, I will handle it." Only then did the Vice President Lai Mo order his subordinates to deliver the message.
During the message transmission, they both naturally watched from a distance.
The Dream Flower Tower Master, Shang Tianyan, and several other interested eternal true gods also spared some thought to pay attention. Since there was no formation to block sound on Luo Feng's side at Orchid Star Hall, they could see and hear everything clearly.
"If you want to see me, come to me in person! There's no reason for me to visit him!" The eternal true gods who were paying attention all heard Luo Feng's words.
"Exciting!"
"Interesting!"
"Not giving any face to the Blood Python Association at all." These eternal true gods reacted with both shock and delight, preferring not to engage in deadly combat themselves, but witnessing other eternal true gods do so was even more exciting than the Hundred Flowers Banquet!
"This unfamiliar eternal true god sure is bold! With both the President and Vice President of the Blood Python Association here, and he still does not show any respect."
"The Blood Python Association has been rooted in Huyang City for long years. If they tolerate this, it would become the joke of the entire Huyang City. Therefore, the Blood Python Association cannot tolerate it! They must act!" Several aware eternal true gods all watched the two from the Blood Python Association.
President Mu Yang and Vice President Lai Mo both looked displeased.
"President," Vice President Lai Mo said with murderous eyes, "this cannot be tolerated! If we do, we will become the laughingstock of the entire Huyang City!"
"Unlike the Five Great Families, we don't have a powerful backing." President Mu Yang whispered, "The territories of the Blood Python Association were fought for. The reputation of the Dark Forces was also fought for. Since he shows no respect, let's see what he's truly capable of."
"I'll check out his background." Lai Mo stood up, "A fool who can't even withstand an Illusion Technique, I want to see where his confidence comes from."
"Be cautious with every eternal true god," President Mu Yang advised.
"Don't worry."
Lai Mo walked straight outside.
"Vice President Lai Mo, everyone is here at my invite for the Hundred Flowers Banquet..." the Dream Flower Tower Master said.
"Don't worry about this, Tower Master." Vice President Lai Mo, with every fiber of his being shimmering with a terrifying luster, his presence spreading, walked directly towards Orchid Star Hall. In just a few steps, he crossed the vast distance and arrived in front of the hall.
Seeing this, the Dream Flower Tower Master could only follow. With two eternal true gods about to clash, it was happening at her Dream Flower Tower; how could she just watch idly?
"My newly befriended Brother Luo He is extraordinarily fierce. I wouldn't dare provoke the Blood Python Association, yet he dare to disregard them so blatantly!" Shang Tianyan was greatly surprised.
"The nineteen Dark Forces were all established through bloodshed, causing even the city owner's mansion to be quite wary of them." Lord Bai Wu, who was also a member of the Dark Forces, knew very well how formidable the Blood Python Association was, "The Blood Python Association is not easy to mess with."
"Thrilling! This is even more interesting than the Hundred Flowers Banquet!" the two eternal true gods from the Qumeng Royal Family were truly excited.
"These Dark Forces, each one is troublesome. Now I want to see what happens to this eternal true god who provoked the Blood Python Association." Their status was high, but they were equally wary of the Blood Python Association.
The Dark Forces generally don't have much background, but their strength is formidable!
...
At that moment, over ten eternal true gods all looked towards Orchid Star Hall, and the Dream Flower Tower Master hurried over as well.
Inside the Orchid Star Hall, the green-robed attendant and Araya both stood in the corner, extremely nervous.
"Big trouble's coming," said the green-robed attendant Yulu, visibly panicked, based on her experience living in Huyang City so far. Daring to blatantly slap the face of the Blood Python Association like this, they would certainly retaliate.
"Is it because of me?" Araya worried and blamed herself; she also understood that at this point, she was no longer important.
"Here they come." In the corner, Morosa's eyes shone as he watched the entrance of the hall.
Luo Feng, however, continued to sit leisurely, drinking his wine.
The Vice President of the Guild, Lai Mo, appeared at the entrance of the hall, a menacing aura spreading across him as his blood-red eyes fixed on Luo Feng, grinning. "Didn't Lord Luo He ask me to come visit personally? I'm here now!"
"If you have something to say, say it quickly," Luo Feng continued to pour himself a drink, too lazy to even glance at him.
Seeing this, the Vice President Lai Mo laughed in a mixture of anger and amusement.
The Dream Flower Tower Master rushed over at the same time, realizing there was no stopping it now.
"I heard you're quite arrogant, considering the Moli Clan, Dream Flower Tower, and my Blood Python Association beneath you. I wanted to resolve this matter, but who knew you'd be even more mad than I expected!" Vice President Lai Mo shook his head. "You should know, things have escalated to a point where they're not easily settled. I'm giving you one last chance to apologize!
Pay up ten thousand cosmic sand as an apology, and the Blood Python Association will overlook this. Otherwise… heh heh…"
The murderous intent in Vice President Lai Mo's eyes intensified.
Hei Duomo, whom Luo Feng had killed earlier, had only a bit more than ten thousand cosmic sand in treasures.
Poorer, newly ascended eternal true gods couldn't even produce that much!
Ten thousand cosmic sand was quite a hefty amount! Forcing Luo Feng to pay up so much would definitely save face for the Blood Python Association.
"Enough with the nonsense," Luo Feng, holding his cup of wine, said softly, "either start fighting, or get lost!"
Vice President Lai Mo was stunned.
All the eternal true gods watching from a distance were somewhat bewildered; this newly emerged eternal true god "Luo He" was incredibly fierce! Such a fierce and domineering eternal true god was a rare sight in Huyang City.
Normally, eternal true gods are quite cautious and do not start fights lightly.
"Very well!" Vice President Lai Mo extended his right hand, and a black staff appeared.
Instantly, Vice President Lai Mo's aura exploded, his Divine Power already igniting, for Luo Feng's disdain had made him incredibly wary; he showed his most proud technique right from the start.
Except for not revealing his True Body, Vice President Lai Mo had fully unleashed his power!
"Shatter!" Vice President Lai Mo swung the black staff, which, like cleaving through chaos, carried an aura of shattering everything and instantly reached in front of Luo Feng.
In terms of strength and skills, Vice President Lai Mo was far superior to "Hei Duomo."
But Luo Feng was no longer the Luo Feng who had just arrived at the Land of Origin.
"Hmph."
Luo Feng gently waved his left hand, his palm like a blade, executing that one move: the Blade of Life and Death.
His hand touched the black staff that meant to shatter everything, and Luo Feng, having undergone one round of Body Refinement and grown to the pinnacle of the Perfect Divine Body, unleashed its full might through his palm.
"Hmm?" Vice President Lai Mo's blood-colored eyes suddenly bulged round; he felt an unmatched power crushing towards him, the black staff rebounded and struck his body, and a streak of the blade light grazed Vice President Lai Mo's body.
Vice President Lai Mo's body couldn't resist at all. In the cycle of creation and destruction, the blade light pierced through his body.
"Stop!" Far away, the Blood Python Association President Mu Yang was shocked but couldn't come to the rescue in time. After all, encounters between eternal true gods happened too quickly.
Luo Feng still sat in his original spot, his left hand holding a glowing 'True God's Heart'.
A single exchange.
The 'True God's Heart' of Vice President Lai Mo was now in Luo Feng's palm.
"Mercy, mercy," the face of Vice President Lai Mo appeared on the surface of the True God's Heart, terrified, begging repeatedly.
The black staff and some personal treasures flew towards Luo Feng. He fiddled with them a bit with his right hand and then lightly shook his head: "You're rather poor."
The shocked Dream Flower Tower Master hurriedly spoke up, "Lord Luo He, please show some mercy; you both are esteemed guests of my Dream Flower Tower…"
"I'll give the Tower Master face," Luo Feng said while collecting the spoils of war, looking at the True God's Heart in his left hand. "Vice President Lai Mo, I'm giving you one last chance as well. Pay twenty thousand cosmic sand as an apology, and I'll spare your life."
"I'm being merciful. Your weapons and treasures are included in the count; you just need to pay an additional twelve thousand cosmic sand."
"Pay, and you live. Don't pay, and you can't blame me," Luo Feng said, looking at the True God's Heart in his palm.
At this moment, the other eternal true gods attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet felt an intangible pressure; even some felt their own True God's Hearts trembling.
At that moment, they realized… a terrifying figure had arrived in Huyang City!
