Chapter 1696: Interruption
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Let me say something fair! I know that a lot of people have said that the reason I’d organize this martial arts contest is to gather more wealth for myself! To put it in a harsher way, people basically say that I’m selling my daughter for money!” said Luo Qiongcang.
Upon hearing that, everyone was emotionless and they kept silent about it. Clearly, the rumor of Luo Qiongcang selling his daughter had spread throughout the nine zones. To make matters worse, a lot of people were willing to believe in it.
“The rumor that all of you heard is not entirely wrong! Everyone knows that Saint Duke is in a huge crisis now! I have to gather as many resources as possible to prepare for the final war! But! I, Luo Qiongcang am not the kind of person who will sell my daughter for money! I do wish that the man who will marry my daughter will treat her well until the end of her life! Sincerity means a lot to me!”
“Emperor Brother… You are trying to say…?” asked Luo Shanhe, frowning.
“This point of this martial arts competition is ranking! The thing that Childe Zhufeng had just presented us is the best amongst all the other people! In other words, he should be prioritized above all the other people!”
“Letting him be first place?! How about me then?!” asked Helian Tulong with a hint of desperation and displeasure.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Childe Tulong, you are in the second place now!” said Luo Qiongcang.
“Are you trying to ask me to give him the seat?!”
“Uncle Luo! I’m calling you uncle right now! Can you at least keep my seat?”
“Childe Tulong, don’t you worry! There are three rounds of competition! Nobody knows who is going to walk out from this place with a smile!”
“You are right about that… I’m pretty sure that I will be the final winner of this competition! By that time, I will be able to get my hands on the Two-star Earth-God material and the princess as well! This is no loss to me!”
After that, Helian Tulong moved to another seat and let Chen Xiaobei took his seat.
“Childe Zhufeng, the seat is yours!”
Luo Qiongcang swung his hand and pointed at the main seat in the middle of the grand hall.
“Alright!”
Without wasting any time, Chen Xiaobei sat on it right away. On the other hand, Luo Shanhe took the wooden box away from Chen Xiaobei.
“Alright! I have said what I want to say! I will hand over this competition to my eighth brother again!” said Luo Qiongcang before leaving the grand hall after that.
Looking at Luo Qiongcang’s back, Chen Xiaobei could not figure out what was he thinking. The only reason Chen Xiaobei could think of was that Luo Qiongcang had simply deliberately come into the hall to take away Chen Xiaobei’s Two-star Earth-God material.
“Alright! The conflict is now over! Next, I will announce the second task! This task is going to test your combat power! All of you have one month to complete the task! The location will be the deepest part of Apocalyptic Starfield! Hunt the Giant Barbaric Tiger! Use any means necessary! All you need to do is to kill one of it and get its Beast Core! Do that, and you will be able to complete this task!”
Immediately, everyone drew in a deep breath when they heard the second task.
“Emperor Brother, are you serious about this? The Giant Barbaric Tiger is a primordial ancient beast! Though it has not reached Primordial Spirit cultivation, a One-star Earth God might not be even powerful enough to kill it!” said Yuwen Yuanqin.
“Childe Yuanqin, don’t you worry! I told you that you can kill with any means necessary! You might not be able to defeat it but your faction is powerful enough to defeat it! They are the most powerful faction on Saint Duke Starfield! Look for them to help you!” said Luo Shanhe.
“I see now, we can call for others to help us! That would mean it’s no longer a difficult task! Now, the difficult part is to look for it!” said Feng Chongwu.
“A Giant Barbaric Tiger lives in Mount Shiwan and its extremely difficult to look for! Let’s not waste any more time! We will take our leave first! It’s better for us to complete this task as soon as possible!” said Yun Changxiao.
“Childe Changxiao! Hold on! There’s something I would like to warn everyone about! Since all of you are venturing deep inside Mount Shiwan, you should know that there are no people living there! That would mean that the rescue team will take a long time to get to you if you cross paths with your enemies! Just be careful!”
“Enemies? Are you talking about the people from Amaterasu Starfield and Divine Dome Starfield that might mess with us?” asked Yun Changxiao.
“There is a possibility that it might happen! It would be best that they don’t go there! Just get ready to fight if they ambush all of you!” said Luo Shanhe.
“I will kill all of them if they dare attack me!” said Helian Tulong as he left his seat at the same time.
“We will take our leave as well!”
After standing there for a while, Chen Xiaobei had no intention to talk to Luo Shanhe. So, he decided to immediately leave the grand hall. Immediately, Ao Liancheng and Lin Qingfeng followed right behind Chen Xiaobei.
…….
After exiting the palace.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Zhufeng! You just suffered a great loss! You can actually use the worst Earth-God material to complete the task! Why did you bring out your Two-star Earth-God material?!” asked Ao Liancheng.
“I know! Zhufeng wanted to surprise everyone! Unfortunately, all he got was a seat and he’s managed to make Helian Tulong his enemy!” said Lin Qingfeng.
“That’s right! That’s why I said, Zhufeng has just suffered a great loss! Zhufeng? Said something. Are you feeling frustrated right now?”
“Hehe… You guys should see the bigger picture!” said Chen Xiaobei.
“What do you mean by that?”
“I’m wasn’t trying to impress anyone earlier! I was simply trying to destroy the relationship between Helian Tulong and Luo Qiongcang! Everyone knows that Helian Tulong is the best candidate for prince consort! It seems like this is not the case anymore after today! At the same time, my Two-star Earth-God material allowed me to show that I’m a man with rare resources! That would mean the royals of Saint Duke Starfield will look at me differently now! From the surface, it may have looked like I didn’t gain anything in the end but I have actually managed to get myself into the hotlist for prince consort!”
Ao Liancheng and Lin Qingfeng finally understood Chen Xiaobei’s intention.
“Considering what you’ve just said, your chances of becoming prince consort have just increased tremendously!” said Ao Liancheng.
“The most important thing is that Helian Tulong will definitely hold a grudge against Saint Duke. If he lets his emotions take over him, that would be perfect!” said Lin Qingfeng.
“If I’m not mistaken, the core royal members of Saint Duke are talking about Helian Tulong now!” said Chen Xiaobei with a smile.
“Interesting! I’m really curious on how would Princess Puti would react when she knows of your existence!” said Ao Liancheng.
