Chapter 939: A Drop Of Divine Blood!
Chapter 939: A Drop Of Divine Blood!
Zhong Guan and the others crowded the brothers, truly not letting up at all.
They didn't take it easy and beat them violently.
Even Feng Ji and the newly added Jin Yun started to attack as if their lives depended on it. They got into the space and kicked the Bull Brothers desperately with their feet, for fear that if they beat him for a second less, they would suffer a loss due to the amount of pain they had gone through. The second brother was beaten and he cried, but the boss of the Bull Brothers yelled, especially towards Feng Ji and Jin Yun, who were weaker than them, "Remember this, you two! When I'm free from here, I will skin you till your bones protrude; if I don't, I'm not part of the Bull Brothers! Good hit, you scumbags, if you have the power to spare, why not hit me harder? Hit harder, have you not had your meal? You useless and weak pathetic excuses of men!"
Feng Ji and Jin Yun became angry and burst out with all their strength.
They attacked him with all their force.
The old man of the Fox Clan, Leader Jin and the others who were watching were really afraid that they would kill the Bull Brothers.
Hu Lei and other Heaven Rankers peeked at student Yue Yang. They were secretly shocked and baffled when they found that the Young Master had a calm face with no trace of mercy. He really deserved the title of the King of the famous family who perceived lives of the Lower Realm as such.
The Captain of the guard behind the Country Lord of Zhi Feng frowned slightly, but he winked instead. If he could befriend this Young Master Titan, what was giving an insignificant pair of brothers to him? On the contrary, if it pleased him, then it would be a real investment. When he just presented two sacred relics, the other party didn't even bother giving it a glance. With that, he knew just how rare items would have to be to catch the Young Master's eye... The Country Lord guessed that there were many sights that the Young Master hadn't seen before, so the image of the Bull Brothers' reluctance to back down might come across as amusing to him. After all, the Young Master was in no way short of guards himself.
The Captain of the guard nodded, but his expression was still a little inquisitive— could the Young Master Titan's interference have anything to do with the Liberty Queen?
Chief Steward Ye saw his expression and waved his hand quickly.
He came out early, which was why he understood the process.
This Young Master Titan didn't know about the Liberty Queen at all as he had a conflict with Hu Lei due to his impromptu intentions. If this Young Master Titan really knew the Liberty Queen, would she have let a bunch of Heaven Rankers catch her? Sky Execution alone was more than enough to kill all the abductors in seconds, let alone the fact that there were still many great men who were secretly protecting this Young Master Titan.
The Country Lord of Zhi Feng didn't take it seriously either. To hell with the so-called 'Liberty Queen'— if it wasn't for the Domain Emperor's order to arrest her and have her beheaded, he wouldn't care about her at all!
They were just a bunch of people without actual strength that posed no threat!
It was just a group of pauper-believers as her followers, so what's the use of it? On the contrary, those poor people were all burdens. If it weren't for some of them being greedy and selling the information to him for some influx of cash, he wouldn't have been able to catch the Liberty Queen that easily either.
Even if the Young Master was tired of playing with ordinary women and wanted the Liberty Queen, he would offer her to him with both hands, let alone giving away the Bull Brothers.
It would just be a waste of rice and grains to want a pair of idiots like them!
Zhong Guan and the others dragged the Bull Brothers aside as the sounds of the crackles continued. Probably within an hour or two, this stubborn pair of Bull Brothers wouldn't succumb to addressing Yue Yang as a Young Master. With brute strength as their forte, it would be troubling for them to be smart about things and lower their pride. Standing out here with them seemed a bit unnecessary, but they were slightly hesitant about requesting the Young Master Titan into the Country Lord's premises.
The Country Lord of Zhi Feng gave his subordinate, the Chief Steward Ye, a look.
He in turn, signalled for Leader Jin.
The performance of meritorious service depends on you!
Leader Jin got the signal and his whole body trembled with excitement. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely kowtow to the Country Lord of Zhi Feng, but now, he had to get the job done quickly. By doing a good job, he didn't mind getting skinned a little later!
"Master Titan, ahem, this is the Country Lord of Zhifeng, but you already knew about it just now. Ahem, it's like this— Master Titan came to our Green Willow City with great enthusiasm from thousands of miles just to participate in the birthday banquet for fun. Besides, you even purposely sought out for this humble one as well..." Leader Jin became nervous and didn't know where to start, but he was a slick character after all. He found the momentum of his words and eloquently advertised both Yue Yang and the Country Lord, as if the two weren't standing a couple of metres around him.
"So that's the way it is. Young Master Titan came from afar to the Green Willow City, but instead, we greeted you rudely," What the Country Lord of Zhi Feng wanted was an excuse.
As soon as he heard this Young Master wanted to join in on the fun and participate in the birthday banquet, he was immediately overjoyed.
It turned out that this Young Master was this up-to-date; why didn't he say it earlier!
The Chief Steward Ye also secretly scolded himself for being an idiot. Just now, Leader Jin mentioned this when he was refuting the guards.
Student Yue Yang patted his head, "Oh, although I got an invitation card from Leader Jin, but I forgot to give a gift— this Young Master is the one who is rude!" He flipped through his storage ring and found a bunch of items, but even as he searched, he didn't seem satisfied by that pile of treasure. But the onlookers were all surprised as they have never seen this many treasures in their lives. Compared with his collection, any treasure that they have seen before was simply trash in front of Yue Yang!
The Country Lord of Zhi Feng, who was so used to seeing treasures like these on a daily basis, was also shocked by the sheer amount.
He knew that it was rude, but he couldn't help but ask, "Just now, was that the Martial Spirit Pill?"
"It seems a little disrespectful to give you a mere Martial Spirit Pill for a birthday banquet, so I'm taking another look!" As soon as Yue Yang said, the heart of Zhi Feng's Country Lord twitched. The Martial Spirit Pill was a top grade item, something that couldn't be bought no matter how much wealth one owned. With it, he could probably ascend to another level in terms of cultivation, so there was nothing else as suitable as that! He wanted to ask for it, but he felt that he wasn't in a place to do so as his heart beated rapidly!
"Gulp!" Chief Steward Ye, Leader Jin, Hu Lei and the others were not blind; they all swallowed their saliva desperately. If it were someone else, they would have already made their moves to rob them; but this was the Young Master Titan— any move against him would equal their deaths!
"This is not very good... this is too rudimentary... Let me take a look at this? It seems..."
"Any one of them is fine, I like them all!" The Country Lord of Zhi Feng didn't dare to say these words and only uttered them in his heart; it was so uncomfortable to hold back.
"Where the heck is this Young Master from; there's too many treasures here, aren't there? The amount there is here is enough to drown someone," The Heaven Raker Hu Lei has seen his fair share of Young Masters before, but he has never seen one at such a calibre. Even Domain Emperors would have the urge to rob him if they saw this scene, let alone normal civilians.
But they could only think about it—if they really wanted to do it, even if Yue Yang allowed them and gave them some leeway, they wouldn't dare to do so either. These treasures were not something they could risk owning at all; just having a chance to glance at them was already a blessing!
Yue Yang turned around for a long time and saw that the corners of the eyes of the Country Lord of Zhi Feng and the others were starting to cramp up.
There are too many babies and they are all top-quality ones; how terrible of me, haha!
Finally, after much difficulty, Yue Yang finally chose something.
The Country Lord of Zhi Feng turned pale when he saw it. With a bit of unbelievable ecstasy and a hint of panic, he shouted, "Divine Blood? No, this- that- too! That's too precious, really! That- that is- It is unbearable to bear such a generous gift! It is too precious! Ah no, this is too!"
Seeing the small jade bottle with a drop of Divine Blood in Yue Yang's hand, the Country Lord of Zhi Feng couldn't wait to swallow the bottle into his stomach.
But on the surface, he had to restrain his eagerness.
My heart is tingling. Damn, the Divine Blood is right in front of me, but I have to keep it professional and reject it to be polite— this is crazy!
Of course, he couldn't agree to give it back, but he didn't dare to reach out and immediately take it from Yue Yang's hands either. In addition to his ecstasy, he was also a little scared. This hot-headed Young Master Titan himself sent him Divine Blood. If someone in his family were to fight for it, even if he got Divine Blood, it would still be a dead end for him. This gift was too precious and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to bear the risks of owning it, but this was the Divine Blood. The blood of his dreams was in front of him, but he couldn't even ask for it... This wasn't a robbery; this was something granted to him by the other party, so how could he not want it?
The Country Lord of Zhi Feng was about to cry in his heart.
On the surface, he had to pretend to be prudent and pretend that 'this thing is precious and not what I like', and repeatedly refuse it, but his eyes were fixed on the jade bottle. He couldn't wait to stare at it for the rest of his life and never let it go.
Chief Steward Ye, Leader Jin and the others almost fainted and fell to the ground. Was there truly someone who would give the Divine Blood as a birthday gift?
Who were these people?
If they intended to scare the people, this wasn't supposed to be how they should be doing it!
This almost scared him to death. Couldn't this Master Titan send some normal gifts? His heart can't take it anymore!
"Too, it's too precious, Master Titan; this is really, really unacceptable! Really, Zhi Feng absolutely cannot accept this, but I can accept it in my heart," Lord Zhifeng wanted to slap himself, but he couldn't. He still had to say some polite words to make him appear as a nicer person. He just hoped that this Young Master Titan, who was not deeply involved in the world and had a naive face, wouldn't believe in his polite words.
"It's nothing; it's just a drop of Divine Blood, so it's really nothing, I still have a big bottle!" Yue Yang's nonchalant attitude made everyone eager to vomit blood and his face was full of indifference. He really didn't know that there was poverty and suffering in the world.
"Since this is the intention of the Young Master..." The Chief Steward Ye wiped away his tears;to be able to have a glance at the Divine Blood, it was his biggest pride as a Chief Steward.
"Yes, good, good! Since it is Master Titan's intention, then Zhi Feng will feel ashamed if I don't accept it. This drop of Divine Blood is the supreme gift of the birthday banquet. The kindness and righteousness of the Young Master is well-received! Come here, with the ceremony of welcoming the Domain Emperor of the Heavenly Splendour Territory, with the highest style, we welcome the Young Master Titan and the Divine Blood into the palace!" If it wasn't for everyone watching, the Country Lord of Zhi Feng would definitely swallow the Divine Blood in one gulp.
Of course, he knew that this must not be rushed.
The reputation must be given to this Young Master Titan. If he was impatient and gave the other party a bad impression, maybe this Young Master Titan will walk away boringly.
Since the Divine Blood had been obtained, the most important thing now was figuring out how to serve this Young Master with countless treasures.
Otherwise, the gift of the Divine Blood would backfire.
If he couldn't get it right, he would have a certain Heaven Ranker ambush him at any time... "My gift is the supreme gift? Haha, that's great, I want to be the first!" Yue Yang seemed to be very proud, looking like some rich second-generation child in the Heaven Realm who was showing off his wealth like nobody's business. If they hadn't known that he was acting, Feng Ji and the newly joined Flame-Eyed Jin Yun might have sneaked in a few words to persuade him. After all, it would be too much of a loss to give them Divine Blood as a gift!
However, they had already learned of the plan.
They knew that this drop of Divine Blood was merely the root cause of the disaster that plagued the entire country of Zhi Feng.
The invincible and undefeatable Young Master Titan, who smiled brightly but killed people ruthlessly, used Divine Blood to make a big bait. Who knows how many big fish would be baited by the bait, lured into their deaths by their own accords.
