Luo Feng was waiting for news from the King of Purple Bell, while Zhenyan Wang sent him an email saying that he had already arrived at Yuxiang Mountain and asked Luo Feng to meet him.
…
Inside the mansion of Yuxiang Mountain’s primitive area, within a quiet hall, servants had already served hot tea. Zhenyan Wang was holding the tea, deeply inhaling its aroma before taking a sip.
“Master,” Luo Feng walked in from outside the hall, “you summoned me?”
“Hmm.”
Zhenyan Wang finally put down his teacup, smiling as he praised, “Disciple, this drink called ‘tea’ from your home planet Earth is truly excellent. It’s not inferior to any other beverages from other places. The more I taste it, the more I like it. Now, I always keep this beverage at my residence, and it’s also cheaper than many other fruit wines.”
“If you like it, Master, I’ll have my family prepare some newly developed tea leaves to be sent to you in Chaos City,” Luo Feng said.
Tea leaves were managed by Pinghai Company.
Based on the original tea varieties from Earth, Pinghai Company naturally cultivated tea under various planetary environments across the universe, developed new tea varieties, and created many different types. When it came to the quantity and diversity of tea, Luo Feng’s family was undoubtedly the best.
“Haha, good,” Zhenyan Wang happily agreed. “I came today because I heard that you, under the identity of ‘Yang,’ have sold many valuable treasures? And after a little investigation, I learned that the news about you obtaining the treasure from the Sacrificial Tower (Jita) in the Seventh Battlefield of the Outer Battlefield’s Yanji Continent has already spread. Is that true?”
“Yes, it’s true,” Luo Feng nodded.
Zhenyan Wang, who already knew about Luo Feng’s other identity as ‘Yang,’ was surprised. His eyes flashed with golden light: “Any trouble?”
“Some minor troubles,” Luo Feng smiled. “But I can handle it. Master can rest assured.”
“If you can handle it, that’s good. I know your personality. Since you dare to say that, I won’t worry at all,” Wang Zhenyan nodded and curiously asked, “How valuable is this Jita treasure? It’s causing such a stir.”
“Several thousand billion Mixed Yuan units,” Luo Feng didn’t hide anything.
Zhenyan Wang’s eyes widened in shock: “Several thousand billion? You’re not joking, right? In places like Yanji Continent in the Outer Battlefield, a treasure worth several hundred billion Mixed Yuan units would already be considered quite good. How come there’s so much?”
Luo Feng grinned.
“Haha, you lucky fellow, I, Zhenyan, have indeed taken in a good disciple,” Zhenyan Wang laughed heartily, his eyes filled with pride. “Disciple, I’m very satisfied with your performance on Yanji Continent. But don’t become arrogant. I may be satisfied, but your other master, the Chaos City Lord, might not necessarily be. His standards are much higher than mine.”
“I understand, Master,” Luo Feng nodded.
As for his master, the Chaos City Lord, he had already reached the pinnacle among the countless races in the universe. It was no easy task to satisfy him. To the Chaos City Lord, this wealth of several trillion was merely a drop in the bucket, utterly insignificant. As one of the supreme authorities of the Virtual Universe Company, with his level of access, he could naturally observe every action Luo Feng took on the Outer Battlefield if he so desired. Yet, the Chaos City Lord had never once praised him for acquiring the treasures of the Jita Tower—perhaps because, in his eyes, such an achievement wasn’t even worthy of acknowledgment.
The only time the Chaos City Lord had truly praised Luo Feng was when Luo Feng created his ultimate technique, “The Bright Moon Strategy.”
“Work hard!”
“Since the Chaos City Lord has accepted you as a disciple, you must not slack off at all. The honor of being the Chaos City Lord’s direct disciple is immense, but it also comes with great responsibility. All the powerful beings will naturally expect you to perform far better than other powerful beings by thousands or even millions of times to live up to that status. It’s normal for you to perform well because you’re the Chaos City Lord’s direct disciple. If you don’t perform well enough, you’ll be secretly ridiculed,” Zhenyan Wang encouraged.
“Yes, Master,” Luo Feng replied solemnly.
…
Just like this time, the King of Purple Bell was shocked by Luo Feng’s previous performance at the Jita. But if he had known that his opponent was the terrifying identity of “the direct disciple of the Chaos City Lord,” then no matter how many hidden cards Luo Feng revealed, he wouldn’t have been surprised. He would only consider it completely natural and perfectly normal.
After all… what kind of existence was the Chaos City Lord?
…
Luo Feng and his master Zhenyan Wang chatted for a long time. Zhenyan Wang was proud of Luo Feng and firmly believed that Luo Feng would be his most outstanding disciple… but deep down, he had no confidence, worrying that his beloved disciple might not receive the Chaos City Lord’s attention, so he always cared about Luo Feng’s growth process and often came to guide him.
“Hearing what you said, this King of Purple Bell is indeed an extremely cunning and ruthless person, and also quite scheming,” Zhenyan Wang nodded slightly. “With such a personality, since he has already sent out a message, he must have a backup plan and will definitely not be scared into hiding.”
“Disciple thinks the same,” Luo Feng nodded. “But he just won’t show himself.”
“Then wait patiently,” Zhenyan Wang said. “You need a bit of patience. Although your opponent has some ability, I still believe you can handle it.”
In the vast universe, among countless races, there are numerous immortals who have reached the pinnacle of the King-level. Yet, among these countless races, those who can truly be called “invincible at the King-level and nearly attain the realm of a Cosmic Monarch” are far fewer in number.
One must possess ultimate techniques, law insights, amplification-type secret techniques, heavy treasures, and cunning strategies—all are essential.
Zhenyan Wang had seen too many powerful beings and had too much experience. After hearing Luo Feng’s account, he immediately saw through the King of Purple Bell’s personality. Perhaps that Purple Bell King was cunning, ruthless, and not easy to deal with, but he clearly knew his disciple ‘Luo Feng.’ His disciple might seem ordinary, but in reality, he had a clear insight into his own heart, seeing through all his weaknesses and strengths, and could calmly make the most accurate plans.
When he needs to be low-key, he is absolutely low-key; when he needs to be dominant, he is absolutely dominant.
Even when facing death, he will make calm decisions.
That was Luo Feng!
Compared to the King of Purple Bell… Luo Feng’s kind was the real cleverness hidden behind simplicity. The seemingly ordinary and low-key one was the truly terrifying opponent.
“Your weakness is your own strength,” Zhenyan Wang said. “Don’t be careless.”
“Disciple has already made many preparations,” Luo Feng nodded. “Of course, there are many mysterious techniques in the universe. I dare not say I have absolute certainty, but I do have a ninety percent confidence.”
“Beep! Beep!”
“Luo Feng, there is a call invitation and also an email arriving at the same time. The call and the email have the same number, sent by the same sender,” Ba Ba Ta, on his shoulder, reminded him.
Luo Feng lightly tapped the air, and a screen materialized before him. He first accepted the incoming call while simultaneously opening the email. On the display appeared a towering, horned giant clad in black battle armor, his voice resonating deeply: “I have located the formidable warrior of the Machine Race faction—the Qi Xian Clan’s Purple Bell King. The coordinates are…”
The content of the email was the same.
“Found him!” Luo Feng stood up abruptly.
“Good. Once confirmed, I will give you the reward money,” Luo Feng said.
“Please hurry, my lord. If it takes too long, the Purple Bell King might escape,” the horned giant said.
Click.
The communication was cut off. Zhenyan Wang, sitting beside, smiled and asked, “The Purple Bell King has appeared?”
“He has appeared,” Luo Feng nodded.
“This is a life-and-death battle, where life and death hang by a thread. Even if you have the upper hand, you must not be careless,” Zhenyan Wang reminded him. “Go. I will stay in your mansion and wait for your good news.”
“Yes.”
Luo Feng smiled slightly, then his consciousness disappeared, directly leaving the Virtual Universe Network.
…
Inside an ice cave on Yanji Continent,
The Purple Bell King was sitting cross-legged alone on a cold rock. His large and small detectors were only set to ‘detect’ mode but had the ‘signal shielding’ turned off, so a lucky immortal Marquis from the human faction was able to detect the Purple Bell King using his detector.
“Found me?”
“A mere immortal Marquis,” murmured the Purple Bell King. “You’ll be the one to lure the human Yang into the trap. Consider yourself lucky.”
“Buzz~~”
The Purple Bell King carefully sensed the spatial fluctuations.
He was a cultivator of the Space Laws, already capable of teleportation, and his sensitivity to spatial fluctuations was extremely acute.
“There’s a special spatial fluctuation—it’s teleportation!” the Purple Bell King’s eyes lit up. “That human has taken the bait!”
…
Just thousands of kilometers away from the Purple Bell King, a silver-armored, silver-winged human and a phantom wrapped in black mist appeared simultaneously.
“Cha Wu Wang, thanks,” Luo Feng said.
“If you have such transactions again in the future, feel free to find me,” a laugh came from the phantom, and then the black mist phantom vanished into thin air.
“Unable to teleport… each time I can only seek assistance from other peak King-level powerhouses. How much better it would be if I could teleport myself. Sadly, my comprehension of the laws still has a long way to go,” Luo Feng shook his head while silently commanding, “Babata, have you located the Purple Bell King?”
“The Purple Bell King is in a cave within the icy mountains 3201 kilometers away, sitting cross-legged on a rock. His detectors are on, but he hasn’t shielded the signals, obviously waiting here on purpose,” Ba Ba Ta communicated through mental connection.
“I know he’s set a trap.”
“He also knows that I’m prepared,” Luo Feng smiled lightly. “He’s not stupid, and neither am I. We both know that we’re prepared, and as long as neither of us backs down, this battle is unavoidable. He’s clearly confident… and so am I… He’ll only regret it when he falls!”
“Ba Ba Ta, verify the accuracy of the intelligence and grant the reward to that fortunate immortal Marquis,” Luo Feng instructed.
“Yes.”
With different statuses come different scales of action.
“Ba Ba Ta, we should give that Purple Bell King… a welcome gift,” Luo Feng smiled lightly. “Irina, execute the double strike as I previously instructed.”
“Yes, Master.”
The Zerg Cerebrate appeared beside him.
…
Meanwhile, in a cave within the icy mountains thousands of kilometers away, the Purple Bell King frowned as he sat there: “Just now there were two consecutive special spatial fluctuations, obviously teleportation, one coming and one going… It should be that a human expert skilled in teleportation brought the human Yang here and then left alone. Now that the human Yang has arrived… why is there no movement at all? Does he dare not to attack me here?”
