Chapter 39: Chapter 37: How Dare You Block Me?
"What does the master plan to do?" Moyu Qingyan's heart was tense. He hadn't been following his master for long, but the experiences during this time had been overwhelmingly thrilling! He quickly followed Morosa out.
...
The guests inside Dream Flower Tower were originally watching the excitement. When Gaowu Shui rode away on the 'Three-Sword Sky-Splitting Beast', they started to head back to their respective halls, believing the 'excitement' had ended.
Meiwu Qi was also relaxed, laughing, "Such stupidity from Gaowu Shui makes him unworthy to be the Leader of Huyang Guard! The Leaders of the Huyang Guard appointed by our Five Great Families are naturally meant to protect us, yet he turned against me! When I return, I will push this issue forward, planning by all means to strip him of his leadership position."
"Such a fool, indeed unfit to be Leader of the Huyang Guard," the armored figure nodded.
"Brother Qianyu, thank you for this," Meiwu Qi said smilingly. Qianyu Chong was an eternal true god affiliated with their Meiwu Family, and he took care of many matters for him.
Just then—
Luo Feng came walking leisurely from a distance, reaching nearby in just a few steps.
"Hmm?" Meiwu Qi, Commander Qianyu, and the blue-haired man 'Jiang Chengyou,' all noticed the black-haired, sharp-horned man approaching, as by now, Luo He's fame within Huyang City was immense!
"Lord Luo He," Jiang Chengyou called out with a smile.
As Luo Feng approached, his gaze swept over Meiwu Qi. "I just heard that you, Meiwu Qi, have tortured and killed countless citizens of Yu Kingdom, capturing several billion alone from Fang Jiu City. Such heinous crimes, according to the laws of Yu Kingdom, warrant death!"
Upon hearing this, Meiwu Qi immediately knew that the visitor had ill intentions!
"Lord Luo He, you must not spout nonsense," Meiwu Qi said coldly. "As Commander Qianyu clearly stated, these are all slanderous fibs!"
"Slanderous fibs?" Luo Feng chuckled lightly. "There's no need for such ludicrous talk in my presence. Many eternal true gods in Huyang City know of your deeds! How many eternal true gods have you personally taken to see your Sinful City?"
Meiwu Qi was shocked.
He had indeed taken many eternal true gods to tour the Sinful City and had boasted about it! He believed... even if everyone in Huyang City knew, what could they do to him?
"Moreover, evidence of your numerous crimes can be easily purchased from the Flame Wind Pavilion. What? Do you think the Flame Wind Pavilion would fabricate evidence to slander you?" Luo Feng scoffed. "If you could make the Flame Wind Pavilion disregard its reputation specifically to defame you, I actually might respect you."
Meiwu Qi's complexion grew dark.
The Flame Wind Pavilion's business spread across a large part of the Land of Origin, and it valued its reputation highly! They wouldn't bother fabricating evidence, even of a Godly King, let alone some of Meiwu Qi's.
"Luo He! What does my matter have to do with you?" Meiwu Qi no longer tried to justify himself. "Even if I did it, it's none of your business."
"I'll interfere in affairs if I want to, and won't if I don't feel like it," Luo Feng said casually. "It just so happens today I heard about these affairs. I think I should stay true to the laws of Yu Kingdom and send you on your way!"
"Roar~~~"
The ever-vigilant Commander Qianyu was greatly alarmed as the legion-class Mechanical Treasure 'Purple Jade Gen' instantly shielded both Commander Qianyu and Meiwu Qi. Its coiling body's deep purple scales sparkled.
"Luo He, what are you trying to do! Are you planning to kill an eternal true god of the Five Great Families within Huyang City, without trial by the city owner's mansion?" Commander Qianyu bellowed in anger.
Meiwu Qi was shocked and angry; he had only thought the other was here to provoke, but Luo He had outright stated his intention.
Did he not care about the city owner's mansion's dignity at all?
"When Marquis of Jiu Jiang and Great Saint Beiyu fought, Beiyu fled, even swallowing all the creatures of the large city 'Yue Rong City' to absorb energy for regaining his strength," Meiwu Qi angrily shouted. "The beings that Beiyu swallowed in one gulp are many times more than those in my Sinful City. Why don't you meddle in Beiyu's affairs?"
Soon, more and more guests at Dream Flower Tower started paying attention to this scene.
Zhu You, Dream Flower Tower Master, and Morosa were all watching from not too far away.
"Divine Monarch Zhu You, what is Lord Luo He trying to do?" Dream Flower Tower Master was somewhat panicked.
"I don't know," Zhu You shook his head. "I can't control Lord Luo He, but I think with the Leader of Huyang Guard, Qianyu Chong, here, the situation shouldn't escalate too much!"
Dream Flower Tower Master nodded; Commander Qianyu, controlling a legion-class Mechanical Treasure, was indeed very powerful.
...
"Great Saint Beiyu is still at large, yet you come to deal with this minor issue of mine," Meiwu Qi said indignantly.
"Great Saint Beiyu is a Primal Chaos Overlord Level existence; I, an eternal true god, dare not meddle," Luo Feng said placidly. "But you, Meiwu Qi, I can still manage."
"I am an eternal true god. What's it to me if I kill some weaklings?" Meiwu Qi said desperately. "Isn't survival of the fittest seen everywhere in the world?"
"Everyone has their moments of weakness," Luo Feng shook his head. "You, Meiwu Qi, were very weak when you were born! If everyone practiced survival of the fittest, you wouldn't have grown up at all!"
Meiwu Qi was taken aback.
"Even low-intelligence exotic beast species know to protect their young, yet you loudly proclaim the law of the jungle, wantonly slaughtering the weak. You are even worse than exotic beasts." Luo Feng shook his head. "The Five Great Families will surely thank me when they learn of my actions."
As soon as he finished speaking—
"Not good." Commander Qianyu, who had been on guard, changed color. He instantly reacted, and the huge Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure 'Purple Jade Gen' expanded and rolled forward, blocking Luo Feng's strike.
Bang!!!
Luo Feng's extended palm struck the massive body of Purple Jade Gen.
Purple Jade Gen, commandeered by the top eternal true god 'Qianyu Chong' and a legion of a thousand true gods of void space, was a corps-class mechanical treasure! Though individually, Qianyu Chong was naturally inferior to Association Leader Mu Yang of the Blood Python,
aided by a thousand true gods of void space and a corps-class treasure, the power unleashed by Purple Jade Gen was by no means inferior to Mu Yang driving the 'Life Blood River.'
"Boom~~~"
The vibration caused by the collision between the palm and the scale-armored body of Purple Jade Gen made the entire Dream Flower Tower tremble slightly, but fortunately, the tower was enveloped in formations, maintaining stability and safety everywhere.
"They started!" Zhu You and the Dream Flower Tower Master were both shocked.
"My brother Luo He, even if you have to kill, can't you do it covertly? How can you strike openly under everyone's gaze?" Zhu You fretted. Their neutral faction sometimes also made dark moves, but they always did so stealthily, leaving no trace.
"The leader of Huyang Guard is right beside, and now Lord Luo He attacks the eternal true god of the Five Great Families?" The Dream Flower Tower Master felt her heart tremble and even feared a little. This was beyond her imagination.
"Luo He, you have lost your mind!" Commander Qianyu grabbed Meiwu Qi and instantly merged into the interior of Purple Jade Gen.
"Brother Meiwu, hide inside the Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure, he cannot hurt you," Commander Qianyu advised.
"Mad, mad, he actually attacked me openly within Huyang City." Meiwu Qi was both shocked and angry—he could not believe that there truly was an eternal true god in Huyang City bold enough to attack him openly.
The palm strike from Luo Feng was blocked by the Mechanical Stream Treasure 'Purple Jade Gen' of the Huyang Guard, and the reverberations triggered heavy force dissipation through the formation of Dream Flower Tower, causing many onlookers to retreat further away.
"Hmm?" Luo Feng looked at his own palm, then at the massive Purple Jade Gen in front of him, "Qianyu Chong, you dare block me?"
"Luo He!"
The massive Purple Jade Gen's surface revealed Commander Qianyu's face, who sternly rebuked, "I am the leader of the Huyang Guard, and I was right here watching. You dare to disregard the laws and openly attack the eternal true god of the Five Great Families. Are you intending to go against the entire city owner's mansion?"
Seeing this, the blue-haired man Jiang Chengyou spoke up, "Divine Monarchs of Luo He and Commander Qianyu, please, let's calm down and talk this through."
"Divine Monarchs of Luo He and Commander Qianyu, please, take a step back," the Dream Flower Tower Master also hastened to speak.
If this situation escalated,
a total war could break out between Divine Monarch Luo He and Huyang's 'Purple Jade Gen', which would create a tremendous disturbance, likely reducing the entire Dream Flower Tower to dust!
"Luo He, you have disregarded the laws and struck out willfully; the city owner's mansion will surely punish you!" the face of Qianyu Chong on the surface of Purple Jade Gen scoffed coldly, "Just wait for the city owner's mansion's punishment!"
"Punish me?"
Luo Feng laughed loudly as his right arm suddenly swelled, divine power ignited, and his aura surged formidably! This made Jiang Chengyou, Zhu You, the Dream Flower Tower Master, and many guests feel an oppressive fear.
"How audacious!" Commanding the entire Purple Jade Gen, Qianyu Chong, with a thousand true gods of void space, prepared to withstand this fearsome strike.
"Puff!"
Luo Feng's arm swelled to thousands of feet, and his hand grew massive like a palm-blade, embodying the essence of the 'Blade of Life and Death,' and as the tips of his fingers touched Purple Jade Gen's purple scales, they pierced through like through mud, and instantly penetrated.
Prior to this, Luo Feng's palm had been blocked by Purple Jade Gen, causing him to recognize the might of this beast, judging it equivalent to the power of the Blood Python Association Leader.
His second body refinement of the Perfect Divine Body, wielding the Godly King Level legacy "Duan Mie" and burning divine power, was sufficient to tear apart the Purple Jade Gen barehanded.
"Whoosh."
As his palm penetrated into the body of Purple Jade Gen and retracted, Luo Feng's hand now held Qianyu Chong.
With the capture of 'Qianyu Chong,' the entire Mechanical Stream Secret Treasure 'Purple Jade Gen,' having lost its controller, naturally collapsed, scattering noisily, with Meiwu Qi and the thousand true gods of void space tumbling out.
