Zhu Fengâs liver was close to exploding, as a merely common Guo Familyâs disciple had dared to treat him in such an insulting manner. His fists clenched tightly, and he was excluding a strong urge to kill this Guo Familyâs disciple! Kill this dog of a disciple! Kill this lowly scum!
Zhu Feng almost gave into his impulse to kill the Guo Familyâs disciple, but Zhu Yi blocked him from making a rash move.
âFather!â Zhu Feng cried out, as his father had stopped him, and his anger was boiling in his heart.
Zhu Yiâs expression was sullen as he reminded, âWeâre in Sea God City.â
Zhu Feng was furious, and so was he. As the Vientiane Worldâs Fortune Gateâs Chief, this was the first time he was humiliated like this since he had risen to the Fortune Gate Chief position for almost thirty thousand years.
It was obvious that this Guo Familyâs disciple had received instructions from Guo Familyâs higher echelon, otherwise, this disciple wouldnât have dared to act this way.
Guo Family! Huang Xiaolong, Golden Brow Ancestor, Blood Knife Ancestor, Wang Wei, and the rest stood with sullen expressions.
In the end, Golden Brow Ancestor, Blood Knife Ancestor, and Zhu Yi sat down. However, Guo Family had only arranged three seats for the Fortune Gate, therefore, Huang Xiaolong, Zhu Feng, and Wang Wei could only stand.
This further infuriated Zhu Feng! He, as the Vientiane Worldâs Fortune Gateâs Young Lord, who was a peak late-Third Order Ancestor God Realm master, actually had to stand!
Furthermore, other forcesâ experts as well as even the Ancient God Realm disciples were offered seats!
Zhu Feng glared angrily at Huang Xiaolong. In his opinion, the Guo Family was targeting them because Huang Xiaolong had heavily injured Guo Gang in Sea God City.
He was being targeted simply because he was in the same group as Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong looked to the front where the Wangu Clanâs group was seated, and completely ignored Zhu Fengâs fierce glare. Wangu Ziyi was looking at the Fortune Gate smugly, and obviously gloating at their situation. Clearly, he was over the moon at the sea tribeâs treatment towards the Fortune Gate.
Huang Xiaolong saw the Dark Elf Tribeâs group seated beside the Wangu Clanâs group, amongst them was You Wuxin. The Dark Elf Tribe was also arranged in the first row seats. Among the Vientiane Worldâs human forces, only the Fortune Gateâs group was arranged in a far away corner.
Subsequently, Huang Xiaolong saw the Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs group, and the Black Region Worldâs Fortune Gateâs group. Both forcesâ seats were also arranged in the first row. Li Zhi sat not far from Wangu Ziyi, however, the Black Region Worldâs Fortune Gateâs Wang Yu was nowhere to be seen.
Wang Yu did not appear because he was probably still lying in bed in a residence somewhere in the Sea God City. Huang Xiaolong hadnât shown any restraints when he punched Wang Yu. Therefore, there was a high possibility that Wang Yu would stay in bed for a few years.
While Huang Xiaolong surveyed the crowd as he stood behind Golden Brow Ancestor and Blood Knife Ancestor, various forcesâ experts were also observing Huang Xiaolong. Many of them were snickering and laughing with their companions.
âThatâs Huang Xiaolong of Vientiane Worldâs Fortune Gate? Is he really that strong?â A disciple questioned doubtfully.
âAbsolutely true! There were a lot of experts present, when Huang Xiaolong sent an early Tenth Order Ancient God Realm sea tribeâs patrol guard flying with just one punch. A peak late-Seventh Order Ancient God Realm sent an early Tenth Order Ancient God Realm disciple flying with a punch... Thatâs too monstrous!â
âMonstrous? Whatâs the use of being a monstrous genius? The sea tribe absolutely wonât let him off today, the Guo Family is probably planning to chop his flesh and bones into a minced meat. Mark my words, when the God of the Sea Grand Ceremony begins, the Guo Familyâs number one genius Guo Jun would surely challenge Huang Xiaolong. Heâs dead for sure!â
âThatâs a pity. Itâs a total waste of such a monstrous battle power. If he were to live to breakthrough to Ancestor God Realm, he surely would deter the neighboring world surfacesâ forces!â
Huang Xiaolong remained unaffected as he listened to these peopleâs whispers.
As time passed, experts from neighboring forces arrived consecutively. Gradually, all the empty seats were filled.
Zhu Fengâs expression grew uglier by the second because he could notice that the various forcesâ experts had seats, including their disciples. Only he, Huang Xiaolong, and Wang Wei were standing.
Even though they were standing at the edge of the square, it still felt like they were standing at its center.
Every group that was arriving couldnât help but looked in their direction. There were even female disciples that pointed at them, then covered their mouths and giggled.
Zhu Feng was on the verge of going berserk.
Li Zhi looked at Huang Xiaolong from where he sat, not bothering to disguise his hatred towards him. Although his injuries were not as severe as Wang Yuâs, Huang Xiaolong had almost crippled him.
"Huang Xiaolong wonât be proud for too long. I met with Guo Jun yesterday, and Guo Jun said that Huang Xiaolongâs blood would be used as an offering on the Sea Godâs Sacrificial Altar to the ancient Sea Godâs souls.â A Golden Phoenix Pavilionâs disciple seated next to Li Zhi assured him.
Li Zhi nodded. He looked at Huang Xiaolong and said through gritted teeth, âPity that I wonât be able to kill him myself.â
...
One hour passed as the seats on the square were filled.
Once everyone was seated,the sea tribeâs disciples surrounding the arena blew into a long conch like shell. A deep sound resembling rolling waves, or a flute reverberated in the air.
The undulating melody quieted the noisy crowd at the square.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Subsequently, the sea tribeâs twelve prominent familiesâ experts stepped out from a large black hole in the void above the square. The first in line was the Feng Family.
The Feng Familyâs Ancestor was acknowledged as the sea tribeâs strongest person. Not to mention Feng Yingyingâs appearance was considered with high regards amongst Sea tribe, therefore, the Feng Family had gradually became the leader of the twelve prominent families.
Feng Familyâs Ancestor was the first person to step out from the void, followed by Feng Familyâs Patriarch. But the third person to step out was not a Feng Familyâs Grand Elder, instead, it was a tall, slender, peerless beautiful young woman clad in a blue battle armor who was exuding a cold, noble air.
It looked like this woman was born with an innate charm, as she was mesmerizing everyone. This charm was originating from her blood, and from her soul.
Even more startling thing was that the blue battle armor was full of holes; tiny holes that led straight to the jade-smooth skin beneath. They could even see the pinkish tenderness of her skin.
The upper part of the battle armor was barely covering up her voluptuous bosom. This sight jarred the minds of the forcesâ experts and disciples on the square.
She is Feng Yingying!
The sea tribeâs number one genius!
Peerless as the rumors!
Huang Xiaolong noticed that Wang Wei and Zhu Fengâs breathing had become a little chaotic. Naturally, other sectsâ disciples were even more obvious.
âThis female has cultivated the Enchantress Tribeâs technique.â The little cow said suddenly.
âEnchantress Tribe?â There was confusion in Huang Xiaolongâs eyes.
The little cow explained, âThe Enchantress is one of the ancient tribes, and one of the more powerful ones too. Males as well as females of this tribe were perceived to be extremely enchanting and charming because they cultivated an enchanting technique. The Enchantress Tribeâs enchanting technique was famous even in the ancient times, but this female is just a beginner.â
Huang Xiaolong was astonished. âThe effect is already shocking, even though Feng Yingying is a beginner. If she were to fully grasped the essence of this technique, would that mean she could make anyone succumb to her charm and beauty with a snap of her finger?
âThat female is looking at you.â The little cowâs voice broke Huang Xiaolongâs thoughts.
