Meeting Mingyu

"This is bad." Luo Feng's expression changed. In the distance, Nuolanshan, who was originally part of the order management, saw Luo Feng, and his eyes immediately lit up. He then swooped down and flew over quickly. "What luck! To think I'd run into this brat here, haha... If I encounter him in reality, I'll just execute him on the grounds of offending me. With my status, who would dare say anything?" Nuolanshan was very confident, and indeed, in the vast universe, a Cosmic Tier's status was tens of millions of times higher than a Stellar Tier's! Stepping into the Cosmic Tier was like ascending to heaven in a single step. A Cosmic Tier killing a Stellar Tier was indeed like crushing an ant. Now, Nuolanshan intended to crush Luo Feng, this ant! On the open plain beside Canglan Star's ancient city, the Three Axe Mountain army was flying down, preparing to assemble. Meanwhile, Nuolanshan in the distance flew towards the interior of the Three Axe Mountain army. "This is my Three Axe Mountain army, Nuolanshan! You, a member of the Hundred Tiger Tower, are trespassing into my Three Axe Mountain army, what do you want?!" A furious roar, accompanied by spiritual force, instantly spread throughout the entire Three Axe Mountain army of over seventy thousand people, causing almost all the adventurers in the mighty Three Axe Mountain army to turn their heads and look. Immediately, they saw the figure swooping down from a distance—Nuolanshan! "Is that Nuolanshan?" "A member of the Hundred Tiger Tower?" "Why is someone from the Hundred Tiger Tower flying towards our army?" Discussions immediately broke out among the adventurer army. Stared at by over seventy thousand people simultaneously, Nuolanshan, who had been swooping down from a distance, immediately stopped, his face turning grim. He cursed inwardly, "That Luo Feng actually dares to be so audacious! He's just Stellar Tier cannon fodder, yet he dares to openly transmit spiritual force in such a setting. He's far too arrogant!" In an army, would a mere soldier dare to shout loudly enough for the entire army to hear? It was the same principle; ordinarily, a common soldier wouldn't dare to shout like that. But Nuolanshan had no idea... Luo Feng wasn't a soldier of the Three Axe Mountain organization at all. "Nuolanshan, stop." "You, stop." "What are you doing coming over here?" Immediately, five figures, also maintaining order, flew over. These five were all Cosmic Tier powerhouses belonging to the Three Axe Mountain organization. All five had displeased expressions. "Many in this adventurer army are carrying treasures from the World-in-a-World, and the various Realm Lords and Domain Lords haven't even come to claim their treasures yet. Nuolanshan, a member of the Hundred Tiger Tower organization, dares to trespass into our Three Axe Mountain army? Does he intend to steal treasures? He's just a Cosmic Tier; he wouldn't have such audacity!" The five Cosmic Tier powerhouses were furious. "Five sirs." Nuolanshan forced a smile. "Nuolanshan, are you trying to break into our adventurer army?" The five Cosmic Tier powerhouses stared at Nuolanshan. "No, not at all." Nuolanshan transmitted his voice, "I'm just a Cosmic Tier. There are thousands, tens of thousands of people stronger than me on Canglan Star. With so many Domain Lords and Realm Lords present, I wouldn't dare to harbor such thoughts. I merely spotted an enemy whom I didn't expect to see today, so I wished to deal with him now." "Oh." The five Cosmic Tier powerhouses nodded. "Who is your enemy?" asked a burly man with hair like steel needles among the five. "His name is Luo Feng, a small soldier in the army," Nuolanshan replied. "A small soldier?" The five Cosmic Tier powerhouses exchanged glances. "Sirs, handing over a small soldier to me shouldn't be a problem, right?" Nuolanshan didn't dare to act recklessly. After all, there were many Cosmic Tiers and Domain Lords maintaining order nearby. If he dared to cause trouble, even if other organizations didn't act, his own Hundred Tiger Tower would likely personally execute him. "The treasures obtained by the adventurer army haven't been claimed by the various Realm Lords and Domain Lords yet! At this moment, not a single soldier can be handed over to you." The five Cosmic Tier powerhouses were very clear on this. Nuolanshan's face grew even uglier. "Nuolanshan, all the other Cosmic Tiers and Domain Lords are watching this way. I think you should leave," the five Cosmic Tier powerhouses told him. Nuolanshan gritted his teeth, turned, and left without another word. Within the army. Luo Feng watched from afar as Nuolanshan was intercepted by five Cosmic Tiers from the Three Axe Mountain side, and then Nuolanshan could only depart resentfully. "Nuolanshan? I need to find an opportunity to deal with him!" Luo Feng thought to himself. "This Nuolanshan must be killed," Hong said with a solemn expression, transmitting his voice. "Otherwise, with his Nuolanshan family coveting Earth's treasures, our Earth will never know peace." "Why don't we ask Lord Mingyu to act?" Lei Shen looked at Luo Feng and Hong. Luo Feng's eyes immediately lit up. That's right! They were about to meet Mingyu. Mingyu was a 'Two-Star Cosmic Mercenary,' considered a master even among Domain Lords! If Domain Lord Mingyu was willing to act, it would be a trivial matter! After all, the higher one ascended in cultivation, the harder breakthroughs became. Similarly, the disparity in strength would become even more exaggerated. "We'll be giving Lord Mingyu a treasure later. If we ask for his help then, our chances of success are very high," Luo Feng nodded. "Luo Feng, how much treasure are you planning to give Mingyu?" Lei Shen asked via voice transmission. "Yes, Luo Feng, what are your thoughts on this?" Hong looked at Luo Feng. Since Luo Feng had contributed the vast majority of points for this treasure exchange, they both let him decide. "A decent Fifth-tier spiritual force weapon," Luo Feng said. "One?" Hong and Lei Shen looked at Luo Feng. "Yes, one is enough. This one... if you consider its value, Lord Mingyu would probably struggle to buy it even with all his assets combined." Luo Feng, guided by Babata, knew exactly how expensive the weapon he intended to offer was. Although the amount of Leiting Shi exchanged for it wasn't much more than for the lowest-ranked 'Skyfire Wheel'. Its price, however, was dozens of times higher. Mingyu, a Domain Lord, even a master among Domain Lords, would likely be unable to afford it even if he spent everything he had. Time flowed by. On the barren plain beside the ancient city, the surviving Three Axe Mountain adventurer army was stationed. Some powerhouses began to fly over, taking away their respective forces. As time passed, the number of troops on the plain steadily decreased: seventy thousand, sixty thousand, fifty thousand, forty thousand... "Luo Feng!" "Haha, seeing you four truly makes me happy, haha." A hearty laugh rang out as the burly and robust Mingyu hovered in the air. Luo Feng and the other three, along with over 200 others, all flew towards Mingyu. "Lord." The over 200 adventurers bowed respectfully. Luo Feng and the other three stood side by side, also bowing respectfully: "Lord Mingyu." "Very good, let's go. Come to my estate to rest." Mingyu quickly departed, taking Luo Feng and the other three, along with the over 200 adventurers. In an ancient city about 20 kilometers from the barren plain. On the top floor of an old shopping mall, Nuolanshan was looking out the window towards the barren plain. When he saw Luo Feng and the other three departing with Mingyu, Nuolanshan's expression suddenly changed drastically: "This is bad! I didn't expect Luo Feng to have latched onto Lord Mingyu's leg, and it even looks like Lord Mingyu is quite polite to him." "Killing him... will be difficult now!" Nuolanshan fiercely gripped the nearby railing, and with a hiss, the railing instantly turned to dust. A beautifully designed estate built on a grassland, the over 200 adventurers had long since been sent away. Luo Feng and the other three were sitting at the same table as Mingyu. Being brought by Mingyu, Luo Feng still felt a bit regretful... because after waiting so long there, he hadn't seen a single Realm Lord! The Realm Lords had all sent people to take away the adventurer army, rather than coming themselves. "Speaking of which, this time was truly regrettable. One of the soldiers I dispatched, named Bendi, managed to break through to the Cosmic Tier, and he also acquired a treasure for me. Although it was only a bottom-ranked one, it was still a very valuable treasure." Mingyu shook his head and sighed, "But who would have thought that on his way back, he would be attacked by the Ninth Prince's forces, and the treasure would be stolen along with him." Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen exchanged glances. This Lord Mingyu was truly unlucky. "How were your gains in the World-in-a-World this time?" Mingyu looked at Luo Feng and the other three. "We exchanged for a treasure," Luo Feng said, smiling at Mingyu. Mingyu's tiger-like eyes immediately gleamed with two sharp rays of light. "What treasure?" Mingyu asked, filled with anticipation. With a thought, Luo Feng made a broad-handled battle saber, three meters long, float in the air. The blade of the broad-handled battle saber was covered with incredibly complex secret patterns. These strange patterns caused a heart-palpitating aura to emanate from the entire blade, and faintly, the space around the blade seemed to tremble. The sharp and immense aura made Luo Feng and the other three's faces turn pale. "Lord Mingyu, this is a Fifth-tier spiritual force weapon, the 'Sky-Slicing Saber'," Luo Feng said. "Good, good, good." Mingyu's eyes burned with fervor, staring intently at the Sky-Slicing Saber. A treasure! Even more valuable than the treasure Bendi, his subordinate, had obtained! This Sky-Slicing Saber was a weapon ranked 29th. After all, among 'Third-tier weapons,' the highest could cost hundreds of billions of Heilong coins, while the lowest were only a few billion, a hundredfold difference! Similarly, the disparity between high-end and low-end Fifth-tier spiritual force weapons was even more exaggerated. The Skyfire Wheel was among the lowest-ranked, while this Sky-Slicing Saber was one of the higher-ranked ones. One could be worth dozens of Skyfire Wheels. "Luo Feng, your gift is quite substantial," Mingyu said with a complex expression, looking at Luo Feng and the other three. "Do you know how much this gift is worth?" "A sky-high price!" Luo Feng chuckled, "It's a sky-high price beyond our imagination; that's all I know." "Indeed, a sky-high price! All my assets combined wouldn't even come close," Mingyu said, looking at Luo Feng. "I said I wouldn't treat you unfairly! Tell me, what are your requests!" "I want to kill someone," Luo Feng said. "Kill someone? What's their strength? What tier of Domain Lord?" Mingyu frowned. "Cosmic Tier Nine," Luo Feng replied. "Haha..." Mingyu laughed. Cosmic Tier Nine? That was far too easy for him. "Killing ten of them wouldn't even come close to the value of this Sky-Slicing Saber you've given me." "How about this," Mingyu pondered, "I'll give you one-third of my territory! No... that might make you a target for ambitious individuals. How about this: of my nearly one hundred thousand life planet territories, starting today, half the ownership will be yours, and half mine. However, you'll manage everything normally; I don't care about planet revenue, planet soldiers, and so on." "And cash..." Mingyu began to ponder.
