Chapter 1134: Luo Feng’s Command

Boom! Boom! Boom! ~~~~

The vast divine country was filled with volcanoes, spewing out scorching magma. This was a realm of molten lava! Almost every moment, volcanoes erupted. At the very center of the entire divine country, surrounded by endless flames, stood a majestic temple. In front of the temple was a statue—that was the statue of Moluo.

Whoosh! A figure suddenly appeared midair in front of the temple—it was indeed Moluo.

Moluo was one of the geniuses of the Virtual Universe Company. Thirty thousand years ago, he had already broken through to become an Immortal. Though merely a Marquis-level one, he had reached the peak of Marquis power. His title was “Ferocious Beast Marquis.”

After being defeated by Luo Feng back then, he had gritted his teeth, determined to surpass Luo Feng. But he never expected that not only did he fail to catch up with Luo Feng, but Bolan and Ronjun also surpassed him one after another. Now, both Bolan and Ronjun were King-level Immortals, while Moluo remained a Marquis-level one. Although he lagged behind Bolan and Ronjun, his talent could not be denied, which earned him the honor of being accepted as a disciple by “South Fox Sovereign.”

“There’s someone here!” Moluo stood midair, his expression changing.

This was his divine country.

How could anyone else enter his divine country?

Boom! ~~~~

Three towering figures appeared in a corner of this endless volcanic divine country. Then, in an instant, they teleported and arrived right in front of Moluo.

When Moluo saw the three before him, he immediately relaxed, his face lighting up with joy, and he respectfully stepped forward: “Disciple greets my master.”

South Fox Sovereign looked at Moluo with a gaze filled with pity.

“Qianwu, Beiming,” South Fox Sovereign glanced at the two Cosmic Sovereigns beside him and nodded slightly.

Qianwu Sovereign, however, looked at Moluo coldly and barked: “Moluo, do you know your crime?”

“Crime?”

Moluo was startled and his heart trembled. Instinctively, he looked toward his master, South Fox Sovereign. Seeing the pity and sorrow in his master’s eyes, Moluo immediately sensed something was wrong. He quickly said, “I, Moluo, have always followed the rules and have never committed any misconduct. I truly don’t understand what crime I have committed.”

The other figure, dressed in snow-white robes exuding a chilling aura, a Cosmic Sovereign whose gender was indistinguishable, sneered: “South Fox, your disciple dares to argue even at a time like this.”

“This is not arguing,” Moluo hastily replied. “If I have committed a crime, please present evidence so that I may accept it willingly. Master—” He anxiously turned to his master as well.

“Do you still refuse to admit guilt?” South Fox Sovereign shook his head. “The Milky Way Lord has decreed… if you admit your crime immediately, you will be sent to the First Star Region Prison for ten thousand epochs! If you refuse to admit it, you will be sentenced to death.”

Moluo’s body trembled.

His face changed drastically…

Death penalty?

“I am guilty! I am guilty!” Moluo quickly cried out. “Master, disciple is guilty. Two Cosmic Sovereigns, Moluo is guilty.”

“What crime?” Sovereign Beiming said coldly, while Sovereign Qianwu also stared at Moluo with cold eyes.

“As to what crime exactly, I don’t even know…” Moluo wore a face of panic, while his mind raced at the fastest speed ever.

Born an orphan, having experienced countless deadly perils, he had long developed his own means of survival! Any threat to his growth… he would eliminate it! And when eliminating, he would leave no trace whatsoever. Now, with high-level officials from the Virtual Universe Company coming to charge him, his mind instantly flashed through a series of events…

He had done many ruthless things. In theory, each of them was water-tight. Although there were a few people who knew about them, none had any evidence.

“The Milky Way Lord issued the order. Who is the Milky Way Lord? The Milky Way… the Milky Way Galaxy?” Instantly, a name surfaced in Moluo’s mind. “Luo Feng! Luo Feng’s home is Earth in the Milky Way Galaxy. Could it be that the Milky Way Lord is him?”

Even as an Immortal, Moluo now sweated profusely from his forehead.

In fact, he had always been following Luo Feng’s growth. Especially when he heard that Luo Feng had become a disciple of ‘Chaos City Lord,’ he was deeply frightened, believing that if Luo Feng reported him to Chaos City Lord… then Moluo would be finished. However, Moluo had also carefully investigated and knew that Chaos City Lord was famous for fairness.

“If there’s no evidence, they shouldn’t act against me,” Moluo thought. At first, he was afraid, but as the long years passed and Luo Feng never came after him, he gradually calmed down.

As for Luo Feng’s exploits on the Origin Star…

It should be known that ordinary Immortals generally had no access to information about the Origin Star! Luo Feng’s fame spread throughout the universe, known only to the Cosmic Lords, Cosmic Sovereigns, and a few extremely powerful ‘King-level Invincible’ individuals who were highly valued by their races. Moluo, indeed, knew absolutely nothing about it.

He didn’t know about Luo Feng’s hunts on the Origin Star, nor did he know about Luo Feng’s feat of killing more than 6,000 Cosmic Sovereigns with a single move.

“Is it Luo Feng who wants to kill me?” Moluo looked up at the three Cosmic Sovereigns. Sovereign Beiming and Sovereign Qianwu both remained cold. South Fox Sovereign merely shook his head.

“It really is him.”

Moluo anxiously looked at South Fox Sovereign: “Master, could you really not believe me? I truly have no guilt. Back then, when Luo Feng and I explored the ‘Demon Mountain’—the Demon Sound Mountain—we had a conflict over treasures, and thus incurred enmity between us! I never imagined that after so many years, he would still hold a grudge. Master, you must stand up for me, or else I will never accept this injustice.”

“Still arguing,” Sovereign Beiming sneered.

“Interesting,” Sovereign Qianwu also shook his head.

“It doesn’t matter whether you admit it or not,” South Fox Sovereign sighed. “Moluo, I know you are decisive, but I never expected you to be this ruthless.”

“Master, I am innocent,” Moluo pleaded urgently.

He dared not admit guilt.

Admit it, and he would die! He had to fight for even a sliver of survival.

“Master,” Moluo gritted his teeth, tears streaming down his face. “I am truly innocent. Even if Luo Feng has now broken through to become a Cosmic Sovereign, human nature is unpredictable. How can my guilt be determined based solely on his word? I now have no other choice but to prove my innocence through death.”

Buzz! ~~~~

Powerful divine energy suppressed and bound every bit of Moluo’s strength. Under Sovereign Qianwu’s forceful oppression, Moluo couldn’t even self-destruct. Shocked and furious, Moluo looked at Sovereign Qianwu: “Senior Sovereign Qianwu, you…” Moluo knew there was a method of resurrection through time reversal. As long as he showed intense indignation and then proved his innocence through death, and since Luo Feng had no evidence, he would surely be revived in the future. But he never expected Sovereign Qianwu to deny him even the chance to self-destruct.

“Don’t bother trying to self-destruct.”

Sovereign Qianwu said coldly, “We are here by the Milky Way Lord’s order to deal with you. Since you did not immediately admit guilt, your sentence is death.”

Moluo’s eyes burned with an extremely complex emotion—resentment, madness.

“By the Milky Way Lord’s order? Who exactly is the Milky Way Lord?” Moluo rasped.

“Exactly the Luo Feng you mentioned,” Sovereign Beiming replied.

“Luo Feng? Impossible! At most, he must have just become a Cosmic Sovereign. How long has he been cultivating? Only a little over ten thousand years. Even if he’s extraordinary, he can only become a Cosmic Sovereign. How can he command you?” Moluo shook his head, unwilling to believe. “I know I’m going to die, but I must know… who exactly made me die!”

Sovereign Qianwu looked at Moluo coldly: “It’s exactly Luo Feng. Luo Feng has already become a Cosmic Sovereign! He is the peak existence of our human race.”

“A Cosmic Sovereign?” Moluo’s eyes widened. “Luo Feng? A Cosmic Sovereign?”

The Luo Feng he had once kicked into the abyss years ago had become a Cosmic Sovereign?

“The Milky Way Lord, as a Cosmic Sovereign, holds such a status. How could he possibly wrong you? His word alone is more effective than any evidence,” Sovereign Qianwu said. “You were bold enough to openly defy the orders of our Virtual Universe Company.”

“I… I can’t accept this… I can’t accept it!!!” Moluo roared. “I don’t believe it! I don’t believe Luo Feng has become a Cosmic Sovereign. It’s impossible!”

“Boom!”

It was as if the earth had collapsed. Moluo’s divine body began to crumble inch by inch, then turned into dust and vanished into the heavens and earth.

At that moment…

The endless divine country, once vibrant with life, with volcanoes erupting one after another, suddenly seemed to lose its vitality. The erupting volcanoes dimmed. Following the eruption of the last two volcanoes, all the volcanoes in the entire divine country fell silent, and the temperature of the divine country began to gradually drop…

This divine country would continue to wither away with the passage of time.

If Moluo could be revived through time reversal and had divine energy to sustain it, the divine country might revive again. Unfortunately… Moluo would never be revived again…

“Let’s go!”

Sovereign Qianwu, Sovereign Beiming, and South Fox Sovereign, the three Cosmic Sovereigns, immediately teleported away from this gradually withering divine country.

…

At the same time Moluo was executed, far away in the Milky Way, on Earth.

“Ask us all to relocate?”

“Who issued this order? I sold my entire star system territory to obtain a thousand-year residency right on Earth. Now you’re telling me to leave? Who will compensate me for my losses?”

“Impossible!”

“Dare you drive us away? I will report this to my family. I will make you all regret it.”

Facing the cold enforcement squad, the alien immigrants on the floating cities above Earth’s oceans roared in anger. After Earth’s power was discovered, the right to live on Earth had become extremely valuable. Only the powerful and influential within the five major factions could enter. And they came in solely to allow the younger generation to give birth. Once their children were born, they would immediately leave Earth, not wasting a single moment.

These young people from powerful families across the entire human territory had paid a huge price to come to Earth. Now they were being driven away?

“The Virtual Universe Company, the Axe Battleground, the Cosmic Mercenaries Alliance, the Cosmic First Bank, and the Cosmic Galaxy Bank have jointly issued this order.”

“All must leave Earth within three days. Those who defy the order will be executed.”

…

What were all these powerful young people compared to a single Cosmic Sovereign? One by one, they left in resentment. When the enforcement squad had driven away every last alien immigrant, the temple that had long been stationed in the Solar System’s starry sky finally quietly disappeared and left.

From now on, this place would be the permanent residence of the Milky Way Lord.

And the entire Milky Way System… had now begun a frenzy of construction.

“Earth!”

A young man with black hair stood in the starry sky of the Solar System, gazing at the blue planet in the distance. Then he smiled, took a step forward, and instantly arrived at Earth’s atmosphere, quietly flying downward.
