Dragon Raja: The Divine Man Lu Mingfei

Chapter 106 The Heavenly Emperor's Bet

Caesar looked at the furious Frost, but he did not feel the same sense of satisfaction as he had in the past when he had successfully taken revenge. This time, Frost was truly innocent, and he had not deliberately caused trouble.

When Lu Mingfei first approached him, asking for his help to carry a sedan chair, he was already planning to agree. After all, in Caesar's eyes, the strong were worthy of respect, and Lu Mingfei had already proven his strength with his power. Carrying a sedan chair was nothing to Caesar, who didn't see it as anything that would lower his status.

But then Lu Mingfei added that he wanted to give him a set of non-mainstream "emo" style that was currently popular in China. Caesar immediately took out his phone and searched for the keywords. The moment the search results popped up, Caesar felt as if he had opened the door to a new world. Of course, this new world referred to the underworld.

Caesar refused without hesitation, not because he considered himself superior and looked down on such commoner attire, but because his aesthetic sense simply couldn't accept such a flashy style.

In addition, Chu Zihang, Qi Lan and Lancelot share the same tragic experience. These four usually prominent figures in the academy have now become brothers in misfortune, even sharing the same desire to find a place to hide.

"Lu Mingfei! Are you openly provoking our Gattuso family?!" Seeing that Caesar was standing still with no intention of explaining, Frost immediately turned his anger towards Lu Mingfei in front of the dragon carriage.

"Shut up, old man!" Lu Mingfei blurted out without thinking, then seemed to suddenly realize something, "Wait, didn't I just say Gattuso's name?!"

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to meet Frost's fully illuminated golden eyes. The moment their gazes collided, Frost's blood almost froze. An overwhelming and terrifying pressure descended upon him. He stared at Lu Mingfei's seemingly ordinary black eyes, but a chill ran through him. The suffocating feeling these human eyes gave him far surpassed that of any pure-blooded dragon he had ever seen!

"It just so happens that I came here specifically to see your Gattuso family. Since you've already walked right into the line of fire, then I'll gladly accept your offer." With that, Lu Mingfei's expression turned serious, his tone hardening, carrying an undeniable authority: "Gattuso family! You have been colluding with the Dragon King Odin; the evidence is irrefutable! Do you know your crime?"

Hearing this completely baseless accusation, Frost calmed down. Having sat in the position of head of the Gattuso family for so many years, a sense of vigilance arose in his heart. He subconsciously suspected that Lu Mingfei's words and actions were deliberately meant to provoke him. Having become a cunning old fox, he refused to play along with the other party's tricks, forcefully suppressing the anger that was about to burst out. He narrowed his eyes to hide the murderous intent surging in them, and his tone was as cold as ice: "Colluding with the Dragon King? Lu Mingfei, you keep saying that the evidence is conclusive. Where is the evidence? If you can't produce the evidence, then..." Frost didn't continue, but the threat in his words was enough to say everything.

"Evidence? This is the evidence!" Lu Mingfei raised his hand and slapped Caesar's shoulder hard, pushing him forward. The two fill lights that had been turned off behind him suddenly turned on again, and two bright spotlights shone directly on Caesar, instantly making him the only focus of everyone's attention.

After the initial shock of social unrest subsided, Caesar became numb. As the old saying goes, life is like a resurrection; if you resist...

No, then go and enjoy it.

Caesar was in this mindset. Although this social failure wasn't what he had hoped for, from another perspective, it was a novel experience he had never had in his twenty-odd years of life. Proud as Caesar was, he decided to accept this unbearable state of being with equanimity, etching this shameful image into his mind as a warning to spur himself on in the future.

The moment Lu Mingfei pushed him into the spotlight, Caesar no longer had the urge to dig a hole and crawl into it. Even though his ears were still burning with embarrassment, he still subconsciously raised his chest, trying to show his proudest side.

However, against the backdrop of his brightly colored afro, his deliberately upright posture not only failed to project any aura, but instead made him look more and more like a street urchin carrying a bag of lime powder, who had just finished street dancing, a far cry from the effect he had envisioned.

Moreover, Caesar also had a lot of unresolved questions in his mind. He was very curious about the being named Odin that Lu Mingfei mentioned. The first thing that came to mind when he heard this name was the king of the gods in Norse mythology, but Lu Mingfei said that he was a dragon king. Later, he searched through the dragon records in the academy, but he couldn't find any clues about this name in the list of the four monarchs.

He truly hated the Gattuso family from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't understand how this family, which had dominated the human world for thousands of years, could be associated with the legendary Dragon King.

In addition, what troubled him the most was Lu Mingfei's casual remark that "you are an artificial human." He had tried to ask Lu Mingfei about it many times afterward, but apart from knowing that he had a great connection with Odin, he knew nothing else.

"This must be Caesar Gattuso, right? I heard he's the future heir of the Gattuso family. How could he be the one you're talking about?"

"Evidence?" Charlotte asked, puzzled, as she looked at Caesar being pushed forward.

This question perfectly captured the thoughts of all the school board members present except for Angers. Everyone stared at Lu Mingfei, waiting for him to give a plausible explanation.

"Caesar Gattuso's true identity is a special vessel created by Odin, the Dragon King, to seize power from Nidhogg, the Black King." Lu Mingfei's words were astonishing. All the school board members present immediately looked at Caesar, their eyes filled with disbelief and deep doubt about the truthfulness of Lu Mingfei's words. Even Caesar himself couldn't help but widen his eyes, finding it difficult to understand Lu Mingfei's statement.

Frost laughed coldly, his knuckles tapping the table with a harsh, metallic sound. "Lu Mingfei, if you barged into the board meeting just to make this absurd joke, then you've certainly achieved your goal. But I must now formally inform you that I strongly suspect the concentration of dragon blood in your body has already exceeded the safety threshold, and your mind has been completely corrupted and confused by the dragon blood. We must immediately conduct the highest-level bloodline assessment on you. Once it's confirmed that your bloodline has crossed the dangerous red line, then what awaits you is either forced elimination or imprisonment and isolation. Now, are you sure you still want to continue insisting on your accusations?"

"Old Deng, you dare threaten me? You've got some nerve, haven't you? Believe me or not, I'll make you fly! Aminos!" Lu Mingfei pointed directly at Frost's nose and cursed loudly.

But the next moment, his expression suddenly changed, and a smile of interest appeared on his lips. "You don't believe me? If you don't believe me, I happen to have a way to test whether it's true or not."

As he spoke, Lu Mingfei placed his hand on Caesar's shoulder and said in a low voice, "How about we make a bet? I'll bet that I kill Caesar right now and see if Odin comes to the rescue. What do you say?"
