Chapter 909
A Command
“You two go rest, let me think this through,” Luo Feng said.
Luo Ping and Luo Hai exchanged glances and obediently withdrew, leaving only their mother, Xu Xin, to accompany Luo Feng.
...
As soon as the two brothers left, Luo Ping couldn't help but say, “Second Brother, why did you tell Dad about this? Dad just safely returned after six thousand years of life-and-death trials. Telling him these things will only add to his worries, won't it? Don't you know how terrifying the backing of those immigrants is?”
“I, I… I was just so angry and upset,” Luo Hai said, his voice a little weak.
“Upset? How many times have you returned to Earth in all these years? You've been adventuring outside. You're a Realm Lord now, and Dad has prepared many secret techniques and treasures for you… naturally making you powerful. And Mom, for your safety, even had you bring an Immortal Plant Life as protection. Not to mention your own strength, when you were adventuring, with your status, which powerful beings dared to provoke you? You're used to living freely and easily, you haven't suffered any setbacks!”
“But Dad is different from you.”
“Dad is the pillar of our Luo Clan, the pillar of us Earthlings! He's at the forefront, envied by many. In the cosmos, powerful alien beings covet him, each wanting to assassinate him. Dad ventures out, risking his life on the edge of death! When he comes home, you still won't let him have peace? Isn't it just being bullied? We're being bullied on Earth, but we can endure it. As long as Dad's strength grows, those alien immigrants will naturally become timid. This time, Dad passed the Realm Lord-level Original Sky-Reaching Mountain trial, and those alien immigrants have clearly reined themselves in a lot. We just need to endure, endure until Dad becomes a super-existence in the cosmos… all these troubles will disappear.” Luo Ping looked at his younger brother. “As his family, we shouldn't cause him trouble. Dad is tired enough.”
“Mm.” Luo Hai also felt a hint of regret. “I, I just couldn't stand it…”
“Who can stand it?”
Luo Ping shook his head. “That's the nature of the world—whoever has the bigger fist is stronger! Many of those immigrants… have terrifyingly powerful backing. It's said they're even connected to the highest levels of Virtual Universe Company and Giant Axe Martial Arena! That's the highest level! How could those privileged scions look down on us? They only have reservations about Dad.”
“Mm.” Luo Hai nodded.
“Just wait, wait until Dad becomes a super-existence, and all those petty individuals will behave themselves,” Luo Ping sighed. He didn't expect his father to have any immediate solution.
As the saying goes, while the great powers might be reasonable, the petty officials are troublesome.
Those high and mighty great existences have lived for eternal ages, and their families have endured for billions of generations. How many of those family descendants have ever personally met their family's founder? That Universe Master existence? Although they haven't met them, the pride in their bones is natural. Just like the Luo Clan members, because they have Luo Feng, naturally carry a sense of arrogance outside. They are proud because of Luo Feng.
And for those whose family founders are Universe Masters, it's even easier to imagine their arrogance.
Moreover, on Earth, these privileged scions are a whole group!
...
In the massive Floating City in the central Pacific Ocean.
“What the hell is that Luo Feng!” The green-armored man with wings sat on his throne, gripping its armrest, his eyes flashing with fierce light.
“Master, don't be angry.” A purple-haired woman, her graceful body faintly visible through a thin veil, walked over with a smile. “That Luo Feng is a direct disciple of Chaos City Lord, so it's normal for him to be arrogant. But no matter how arrogant he is, he can't do anything to us. Our many Floating City immigrants come from the five major forces, and many are descendants from the families of various Universe Masters. Although they are only juniors in their families, they are still not someone Luo Feng can provoke.”
“Mm.”
The green-armored man finally showed a hint of a smile. With a wave of his hand, the purple-haired woman flew over and landed in his embrace. He was about to have a moment of intimacy right there in the grand hall.
Suddenly, a voice came: “Jieli King!”
“Hm?” The green-armored man frowned and looked outside, setting the beauty in his arms down, somewhat displeased. “Fengchen King, do you have business with me?”
The four-armed middle-aged man, Fengchen King, walked in from outside. Fengchen King stepped into the grand hall, his voice booming: “Jieli King, no matter what, that Luo Feng is a member of my Virtual Universe Company, and a direct disciple of Chaos City Lord. Don't go too far and cause trouble. Can you bear the consequences?”
“I don't believe he dares to provoke me!” Jieli King stood up abruptly.
“Hmph.”
Fengchen King looked at him coldly. “Jieli King, sober up. Although you and I are both descendants of Universe Masters, our families have multiplied for billions of years, and our clan members number in the hundreds of billions. Although you and I are both King-level Immortals, considered elites in our families, if we were true elites… we wouldn't be assigned to guard Earth, protecting a bunch of couples and infants!”
Jieli King choked.
“I ask you, have you ever met your family's progenitor, Void Gold Master?” Fengchen King asked.
Jieli King's face turned ugly.
“I haven't met my family's progenitor either,” Fengchen King sighed. “For eternal existences like Universe Masters, their descendants and clan members are countless. What do we count for? So sometimes, it's better to be low-key.”
“However, even when beating a dog, one must consider its owner. Our group of immigrants are also considered elites in our families, and we represent the face of various Universe Masters. No one dares to act recklessly,” Fengchen King said. “But you can't be too arrogant either. It's fine for other Earthlings, but for Luo Feng, we still need to show some respect. Provocations like before are not worth it… Who doesn't know Luo Feng's appearance? You even deliberately made him state his identity. That provocation was transparent.”
“Enough.”
Jieli King's face was grim. “Just a Luo Feng? He's only a Realm Lord now. I don't believe he can become that strong! Is the path of a powerful being so easy to walk? Every step is full of danger. The more formidable he appears, the more those alien races will want to kill him quickly! Not to mention the many dangers… simply comprehending laws to become a Universe Venerable is incredibly difficult! Even among Chaos City Lord's direct disciples, many haven't managed to become Universe Venerables!”
“Don't bother me anymore… Isn't it just because that Luo Feng and you are both from Virtual Universe Company that you're speaking up for him?”
“Hmph.” Fengchen King's expression changed upon hearing this, and he immediately turned and left the grand hall.
Jieli King watched this scene and merely snorted coldly.
“Arrogant Earthlings.” Jieli King looked through the grand hall at the endless void, and also at the Earthling residents on the distant land. “Even if you have that Luo Feng backing you, it won't change your lowly bloodline. When Luo Feng falls, I truly want to see your despair. At that time… there will be plenty of ways to make you get off Earth!”
“Luo Feng?”
“Let's see how long you can be so smug,” Jieli King thought resentfully. The lack of importance he felt within his family, that stifled anger… while Luo Feng shone brightly. The comparison naturally made him unable to wish Luo Feng well; he wanted to see Luo Feng's tragic future.
...
In the Virtual Universe, within the palace shrouded in flowing air above Thunder Island.
Luo Feng respectfully entered the grand hall.
“Teacher.” Luo Feng bowed respectfully.
“Something wrong?” Chaos City Lord's voice came.
“Disciple has a request for Teacher,” Luo Feng said respectfully.
A figure subtly emerged from the flowing air deep within the hall—it was Chaos City Lord in golden robes. “You've experienced many dangers and troubles in the Outer Territory Battlefield, yet you've never come to me for help. You inherently dislike asking others. Speak… what is it you've come to me for?” Chaos City Lord indeed valued Luo Feng greatly. Ever since Luo Feng's explosive display, easily killing King-level Immortals and even clashing with Black Ti King, it made Chaos City Lord realize…
His disciple was still hiding something! Otherwise, a Realm Lord, even with heaven-defying will and consciousness, even with battle armor, even with law comprehension reaching the 20th level, couldn't so easily kill a King-level Immortal expert! And it would be even harder to merely be at a disadvantage when fighting Black Ti King. Chaos City Lord wasn't annoyed by his disciple's concealment; everyone has selfish motives, secrets they don't want to share, and he understood.
He also realized that Luo Feng's future achievements might be astonishing, so he had also cleaned up Luo Feng's mess, giving Luo Feng the additional, real identity of Daohe King.
“The situation is this, Teacher. This time, when I returned to my home planet, Earth, some things happened that made me realize… the conflict between immigrants from other planets and Earth's original inhabitants is irreconcilable,” Luo Feng said respectfully. “Disciple has no other way, so I've come to ask for Teacher's help.”
To ask for help is to ask for help.
Stating it openly and honestly, someone of Chaos City Lord's status wouldn't get angry. If he had beaten around the bush, the effect would have been worse.
“Such a small matter… Yes, most of those immigrants come from various powerful families, and you can't easily provoke them. Very well, I will issue a command then,” Chaos City Lord nodded. “I know you value your family and home. I will help you resolve these worries, so you don't have to fret over other things… Becoming stronger is what you must do!”
“Yes, Teacher, disciple will certainly do my utmost.” Luo Feng was overjoyed; his Teacher had agreed too readily.
“Go,” Chaos City Lord nodded.
Luo Feng bowed respectfully and then withdrew.
Chaos City Lord watched his disciple leave, a smile on his face. This disciple, who never asked for help, finally came to him, and it was for such a small matter.
“Caring for his home and family, this kind of character… as long as our human race treats him well, he will naturally fight wholeheartedly for our human race,” Chaos City Lord nodded slightly. Among super-experts, there were also some ungrateful wretches who, once their wings had hardened, would only care for themselves and ignore the dangers facing the race.
For example, Yan Emperor of the Yan God Clan in history was originally a member of the human race, but eventually led the entire Yan God Clan to break away from the human race and become a hegemon. This greatly angered the peak existences of the human race, but on one hand, Yan Emperor's strength was indeed terrifying, and on the other, there was an even more terrifying alien grand being behind him, so the human race could only endure.
...
Half a day later, a command was issued to the Divine Temple guarding Earth, and also to the immigrant management and original Earth inhabitant management on Earth.
The command was simple—
From the moment this command is issued, immigrants are forbidden from entering land areas and their airspace. Earth's original inhabitants are forbidden from entering ocean areas and their airspace. Violators… will die!
“What?!” Jieli King, the green-armored man, who was just frolicking with the beauty, roared as he received this command.
