Swallowing the Stars: Equipment Slots, Starting with a Genius Battle

Chapter 89 The Great Alliance, the King of Luzon's Wrath?

Ye Feng stood up and bowed deeply to the seemingly unchanging figure at the entrance of the meditation room, saying from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you, Lord Kandri, for your kindness."

This silent transfer, compared to a forced interruption of the awakening process, greatly helped him to continue and consolidate his understanding of the laws of the Chaos Monument.

Kander turned around, his face still beaming with a smile: "Ye Feng, there's no need to be so polite. As I've already said, your teacher, Nine Swords Venerable, and I have a life-or-death bond. As his most prized disciple, it's only a small favor for you, so naturally I, as his senior uncle, must take care of it."

Uncle-Master?

Ye Feng's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

In the universe, the strong are respected. While the master-disciple relationship is sacred and solid, it rarely develops the complex seniority system of "elder brother" and "uncle" that exists in mortal sects.

The reason is simple—the strong live for billions of years and have intricate networks of relationships.

For example, his other teacher, the Lord of Chaos City, was a fellow disciple of the Lord of Darkness and the Lord of Ice Peak, and also treated other universe lords as equals.

If we're being serious, wouldn't Ye Feng have to address all the human universe masters as "Master Uncle/Master Master"?

This is obviously unrealistic, and everyone tacitly ignores this kind of relationship.

However, since Venerable Kandri had taken the initiative to show goodwill and extend his kindness, Ye Feng naturally wouldn't refuse him.

Ye Feng respectfully replied, "Thank you for your care, Martial Uncle. I would like to continue studying the Heavenly Fire Chaos Stele later, but I wonder—"

"Haha, no problem." Kandri was in high spirits and laughed heartily. "With my martial uncle here, you can rest assured."

While chatting with Kandri and listening to its understanding of the fundamental laws of space, Ye Feng spared a sliver of his attention to log into the virtual universe. "Go to Hongmeng," Ye Feng thought to himself.

As the Lord of Chaos City elevated his "Sword-Burning Marquis" authority to the rank of King, the "Hongmeng" option was automatically added to the teleportation options of the virtual universe system.

call out-

Ye Feng, disguised as "Sword King," instantly blurred and was teleported to a completely new dimensional space.

Hongmeng Space can be considered the most advanced and densest plane of power in the virtual universe, apart from the God Mountain where the highest meeting is held.

Before them stretched an endless, vast starry sky, with billions of stars surrounding and protecting a majestic city suspended in the void, exuding an ancient and desolate aura—Hongmeng City.

"Buzz~"

The moment Ye Feng descended, among the countless stars surrounding Hongmeng City, one of them shone faintly.

"This is Hongmeng City?" Ye Feng appeared in a living room of less than a thousand square meters. He looked around, his brows furrowing slightly.

The living room is spacious enough for normal humans, but it's too cramped for those special life forms that are often over ten meters tall.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that his physical abilities had been forcibly suppressed to the apprentice level.

That long-lost feeling of weakness made the world lord, who was used to power, feel very uncomfortable.

"As expected, fighting is prohibited here; everything is based on equality and communication." Ye Feng understood.

This is completely different from Yu Xiang Mountain, which cultivates and encourages geniuses to fight and kill each other. Yu Xiang Mountain will perfectly display the current strength level.

He pushed open the door and stepped out, where a quiet and spacious residential area came into view. Each house occupied a standard 3200 square meters, was two stories high, and had a variety of architectural styles, some quite unique.

Walking along the clean streets, past the uniquely designed houses, and in the distance, amidst strange life forms of all shapes and sizes, some even composed of rocks or pure energy, he truly felt that this was a super-powerful community where countless races of the Hongmeng gathered.

Looking up, one sees an endless starry sky, densely packed with stars.

"It is said that each star here represents a powerful figure within Hongmeng City—" Ye Feng said softly, "I wonder which one belongs to me?"

After a brief stroll, Ye Feng made a clear decision and headed straight for Yu Baotang, the core area of ​​Hongmeng City.

"The golden armor there" is Ye Feng's target this time.

"Sword-Burning Marquis? Oh no—now he should be called Sword-Burning King." A clear, melodious female voice, tinged with surprise, suddenly came from behind.

In a flash, a beautiful figure appeared before Ye Feng's eyes—it was none other than the super-rich woman, Illusion Star King.

She smiled sweetly, her beauty captivating.

"Phantom Star King? What a coincidence." Ye Feng greeted him with a smile.

He had a good impression of this generous and kind-hearted wealthy woman who had been granted the title of "King of Wealth," and they had developed some acquaintance from their previous collaboration.

However, the next move of the Illusion Star King instantly petrified Ye Feng.

A glint of light flashed between the crystalline ridges of her brows, and a slender hand naturally and intimately took Ye Feng's right arm. She pressed half her body against him, and in a sickeningly sweet voice, she said, "What a coincidence~ Sword King, didn't we agree to go to Yu Bao Tang together to attend the Hongmeng Auction?"

Ye Feng: "???"

Has he lost his memory? Or is there a temporal distortion?

He and Huanxing Wang were at best ordinary friends.

This girl wasn't exactly aloof before, but she was definitely not this "petite and dependent."

What's with this sudden change in art style?

Ye Feng was about to righteously withdraw his arm.

Even though you're a rich woman, I, Ye Feng, still have principles.

Even a super-powerful figure like Luo Feng wouldn't dare to curry favor with you, let alone a mere disciple of the Lord of the Universe.

Just then, a furious shout exploded like thunder: "Don't touch Xingyu! Get out of my way!" A brute force came and forcibly pulled Ye Feng's arm out of Huanxing King's arms.

Ye Feng frowned and looked at the person who had just arrived.

He was a handsome man dressed in a magnificent white robe with gold thread outlining his hair, and his head was covered in golden scales. At this moment, his face was flushed, his eyes were blazing with fire, and he was staring intently at Ye Feng as if the other party were an enemy who had stolen his wife.

Before Ye Feng could even speak, the once delicate and charming Illusion Star King's pretty face instantly turned icy, and she said in a cold voice, "King of Luzon. What happens between me and Sword Blaze King is none of your business!"

Her voice was as cold as a knife: "Who are you to me? What right do you have to interfere in my affairs? And—call me the Illusionary Star King. 'Star Feather' is not someone you can call."

The man named King of Luzon was so embarrassed by the retort that his face turned pale and then red, and he stood frozen in place. "Hoshino—I—"

""

Ye Feng looked at this scene and instantly understood—

The King of Luzon is clearly pursuing the King of Illusion, but the King of Illusion is not interested and is using himself as a shield, which led to the scene just now.

It's really bizarre. They've already been crowned kings, transformed into divine bodies, and are no longer flesh and blood beings, yet such a ridiculous thing still happens.

But thinking about that "mad dog-like" Candle King, all of this seems perfectly normal.

"Ahem." Ye Feng cleared his throat, looking completely innocent. "You two, please make yourselves at home. Don't take me with you. I'm in a hurry."

He tried to slip away after saying that.

He came to Hongmeng to buy the King Armor and treasures to enhance his spatial talent; he wasn't just fooling around.

The Phantom Star King is not quite normal; the King of Luzon is far too abnormal!

They've already been crowned kings, yet they're still playing house like kids. Are they kidding me?

His words successfully drew the attention of the attackers.

"King Swordfire, let's go together," said King Illusion Star. "King Swordfire, stop right there!" roared King Luzon.

Ye Feng: "————"

Their teamwork is truly remarkable.

Illusion Star King hugged Ye Feng's arm tightly again, while a rapid telepathic message entered Ye Feng's mind: "Sword Blaze King. Help me get rid of this annoying guy. Reward—1 million Chaos Yuan."

1 billion mixed yuan?

Ye Feng's struggling arms froze instantly.

He knew that meeting this rich woman meant "good things." 1 million yuan for being a shield? This deal—was it negotiable?

Ye Feng's mind raced, and he tentatively tried to negotiate, "10 million? That's too little. Look at the way he looks at me, he practically wants to devour me alive. The risk is too high, at least 1 billion Hunyuan."

Ye Feng felt his face burning as he shouted out that number.

"Deal." The Illusion Star King agreed readily, a sly smile playing on his lips.

Damn, I've been tricked.

Ye Feng cursed inwardly. This King of Luzon was definitely not simple; he agreed so readily.

Sure enough, Illusion Star King seemed to have a conscience and quickly added via telepathy: "Sword Blaze King, you just need to stand there and cooperate with me obediently. Don't really offend him. Although he is just an ordinary King, my teacher—is also a Lord of the Universe."

Disciple of the Lord of the Universe?

Ye Feng suddenly realized, then inwardly he was furious: "Damn. Are disciples of the Lord of the Universe as common as cabbages now? You can just bump into two on the street?"

"But—coincidentally, me too—"

Moreover, his teacher was the Lord of Chaos City.

The absolute leader under the "giant axe" of the human race.

The head of the Virtual Universe Company, whose three clones each possess fifth-tier combat power, and whose combined power in the Primal Universe is comparable to the strongest being in the universe.

In terms of background, Ye Feng believed he was far superior to these two "foolish children from wealthy families".

As the King of Luzon approached step by step like an angry bull, Ye Feng suddenly broke into an incredibly "sincere" smile.

He took two steps forward and grabbed the King of Luzon's arm, while his will as a high-level cosmic sovereign surged slightly.

The King of Luzon felt a sudden "buzz" in his head, and was momentarily dazed before Ye Feng took him aside.

At Hongmeng, everyone's physical abilities are only at the apprentice level, making the importance of willpower even more prominent.

"King of Luzon," Ye Feng transmitted his voice, his tone earnest, "First of all, let me state that King Huanxing and I are really just ordinary friends, as ordinary as can be."

"Secondly," Ye Feng said with the air of someone who'd been there before, "that's not how you pursue a woman. Being persistent and clingy will only backfire and make her more annoyed with you."

You need to showcase your masculine charm, your strength, your wealth, your status—in short, you need to attract her attention and pique her curiosity to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Do you understand?

The King of Luzon was somewhat bewildered by Ye Feng's strong will and "sincere" advice. He transmitted his thoughts with a mixture of belief and skepticism, "Really—"

real?"

Seeing the other party's expression, Ye Feng felt reassured; the 10 billion Hunyuan was secured.

He had seen through it all: no matter how strong one's abilities or how powerful one's background, once one gets caught up in matters of the heart, one becomes extremely foolish.

Indeed, humans possess rich emotions, a distinctive feature that sets them apart from other races such as the insectoid race, the demon race, and the machine race, and is one of the important qualities that allows them to surpass them.

Ye Feng said with certainty, "It must be true!"

What you need to do now is not to be like the Kunfly Beast, constantly buzzing around the Illusion Star King, but to find opportunities to show your strength and let your power speak for you.

Let strength speak for me?

The King of Luzon realized that he had understood, and that what the King of Swordsman said made a lot of sense.

He patted Ye Feng heavily on the shoulder. "Sword King, thank you. I will reward you handsomely after this is done!"
