Chapter 42
“You… you… This old man will not let any of you go!” Elder Xu said through gritted teeth with hatred in his heart. How dare a mere Great Spiritualist crack a joke at my expense.
“You are too presumptuous. How dare a Great Spiritualist be so rampant. Where is your respect for the dignity of the strong?” Zhang Jian rebuked them, seemingly with a sense of righteousness. In fact, he said this in hopes of borrowing Elder Xu’s hand to kill them so that he could vent his anger. Leng Ruoxue asked for it when she ignored him. Hmph, she’s just a married woman who isn’t worthy of me. However, his innate superiority made him unable to tolerate her ignoring him.
Now that the dignity of the strong was on the line, Elder Xu had no choice but to attack. How could a powerhouse allow himself to be humiliated by an ant? This concerned his dignity and face.
“Prepare to die!” Elder Xu said furiously.
“Wait, Elder Xu, are you sure you want to kill them?” Ju Ri asked. He had gained many benefits from Leng Ruoxue, so it was impossible for him not to intervene!
“Yes, Elder Xu, you should think about it carefully!” Cang Ran echoed.
“Are you two young masters standing up for them?” Elder Xu questioned, displeased. He didn’t want the two major mercenary groups, Hurricane and Universal, to intervene in the feud between them. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Elder Xu, we’re doing this for your own good. Their young lady might have left, but do you think she could have left feeling relieved if she didn’t leave something for her subordinates to fend for their lives?” Ju Ri reminded ‘kindly’.
“Erm…” Elder Xu hesitated after hearing what Ju Ri said. He wasn’t a fool and certainly didn’t want to provoke an enemy he didn’t know the details of.
Just as he was hesitating, a stream of heaven and earth laws descended.
“Is… is this a level nine holy beast breaking through ?” At that moment, Elder Xu’s mind was fully attracted by the holy beast’s breakthrough. How could he have the mood to avenge his brother? Wouldn’t a level nine holy beast break through to become a divine beast? There had yet to be anyone in the entire Ling Feng Continent who formed a contract with a divine beast. If he could obtain this divine beast, his status in the family would be second only to the patriarch. He had to obtain it.
Everyone present was stunned. But what surprised them even more was that a second stream of heaven and earth laws descended soon after.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Are… are there two holy beasts breaking through?
Seeing the descent of the second stream of heaven and earth laws, Feng Da and the others knew that Deputy Leader Feng had also advanced. Great, our mercenary group will have another Spiritual Sovereign now.
…
“Master,” the king kong great ape said happily as he transformed into a human.
“Thank you, King Kong!” Feng Moran looked at the two-meter tall, handsome, and strong man in front of him with gratitude. It would have been impossible for him to advance two stages so easily to become a Spiritual Sovereign if King Kong didn’t break through.
“Master, what about the people outside?” King Kong scratched his head shyly. Hehe, Master is being too polite.
“Chase them away,” Feng Moran said coldly. There was now a hint of powerhouse’s demeanor to him.
“Okay.”
“Leave my territory immediately! Or else, you will stay and be my dinner!” King Kong roared outward. His master was too kind. If it were up to him, he would have just killed them all.
By the time Feng Moran emerged, most of the people outside had already run away.
“You came back at the right time, Brother Feng. We were just about to say goodbye!” Ju Ri and Cang Ran said when they saw Feng Moran.
“Let’s go together!” Feng Moran said.
“Okay.”
“Why didn’t the Xu family leave?” Feng Moran asked curiously. Are they still thinking about killing us?
“The purple pearl fruit is gone, so they’re probably after the divine beast,” Ju Ri guessed. Divine beasts were extremely enticing, but people had to be alive to obtain them. How could they expect to obtain the king kong great ape after it had eaten the purple pearl fruit and advanced to divine beast? The king kong great ape must be in a good mood, so it let them leave instead of coming out to kill them all immediately.
Of course, Feng Moran knew how attractive divine beasts were to powerhouses. But a divine beast had strength equivalent to a human Spiritual Deity, so how could it be easy to capture one? Even if there was one captured through a scheme, would there be a beast trainer who had the confidence to tame it? Even Supreme Beast Trainers didn’t have full confidence to tame one, right? Moreover, there was no Supreme Beast Trainer on the Ling Feng Continent now.
“I guess Elder Xu isn’t in the mood to kill us anymore!” Feng Moran said jokingly.
“Of course, you aren’t as attractive as a divine beast,” Ju Ri mocked. A peak Spiritual Sovereign wants to capture a divine beast… He’s really overestimating his abilities.
“Brother Ju, Brother Cang, we’ll take our leave now. See you again,” Feng Moran said when they reached a fork in the road.
“See you again.”
“Deputy Leader Feng, are we going to Phoenix City?” Feng Da asked.
“Mu Li, what do you think?” Feng Moran looked at Mu Li.
“You’ve just advanced, so you should consolidate your strength first before going back,” Mu Li said after some thought.
“Alright.” Feng Moran knew that he wouldn’t be of much help even if he returned. Moreover, Xue’er had already gone back, so Leng Ruohan would definitely be fine.
…
“Xue’er, don’t worry. Nothing will happen.” Ye Chen comforted her.
“I don’t know how bad my big brother’s injury is, so I’m just a little worried,” Leng Ruoxue said. If it’s only a minor injury, Grandpa wouldn’t have issued a mercenary mission.
“Quill, let’s take a break!” Leng Ruoxue said after feeding him a pill.
“Master, I’m not tired,” Quill said. Even though he had been flying for so long, he didn’t feel tired since his master was constantly feeding him pills.
Quill flew at a rapid pace. After flying for an entire day and night, they finally arrived at Phoenix City.
“Master, Miss is back!” Cui Zhu said excitedly as she ran into the study.
“Really? Where?” Leng Qingtian was finally relieved when he heard that his precious granddaughter was back. Xue’er will definitely have a way.
“Outside,” Cui Zhu said excitedly.
Leng Qingtian hurried to the yard and happened to see Xue’er jump off the back of the giant eagle.
“Grandfather!”
“Xue’er.” Leng Qingtian held his precious granddaughter tightly in his arms. After not seeing her for half a year, he missed her so much.
