Chapter 232 Star Luo Ancestral Land, Divine Inheritance!
Chapter 232 Star Luo Ancestral Land, Divine Inheritance!
As the aftershocks of the explosion subsided, Davis lay unconscious on the platform like a dead dog. His left arm was gone, and his remaining three limbs were twisted at an incredibly unbelievable angle. There was no trace of soul power emanating from his body, and he lay in a pool of blood!
Everyone who saw this knew that Davis was finished!
But no one cared about Davis. In the Star Luo Empire, losers were not worthy of sympathy. All eyes were on the Star Luo Emperor, waiting for him to announce the birth of the new crown prince!
But despite everyone's waiting, the Star Luo Emperor remained silent.
"Do you think... your father will make you the crown prince?" Han Feng lightly touched Dai Mubai's shoulder and asked with a hint of mockery.
"Impossible!" Dai Mubai saw through it all. His father, the emperor, had even gone so far as to use his soul bone to enhance Davis's strength, which showed his obsession with the throne. How could he possibly back down so easily?
Dai Mubai was still standing there simply to see how his father, the emperor, planned to smooth things over!
As expected, under everyone's watchful eyes, the Star Luo Emperor slowly stood up and said in a very official tone: "Today, in the battle of the princes, the Second Prince was able to break through to the Soul King realm at such a young age, demonstrating extraordinary talent, which greatly pleases me! However, Mu Bai is still young, acts recklessly, and possesses extraordinary talent, so he should focus on cultivation! Therefore, I will not appoint him as Crown Prince, but to reward his bravery, I will allow him to enter the ancestral land to uphold the ancestral will!"
As Dai Mubai expected, the Star Luo Emperor did not appoint a crown prince!
Don't listen to how complicated or high-sounding the Star Luo Emperor's words are. In reality, he is saying that Dai Mubai is too young and his virtue is not worthy of the position. He is not qualified to be the crown prince and should cultivate first. However, in order to appease Dai Mubai, he can be allowed to go to the ancestral land for a visit!
Of course, there is also a more straightforward and common interpretation, which is—I will not die! You will all remain princes!
Dai Mubai showed no surprise whatsoever. He gave a silent, cold laugh and stepped forward to receive the imperial decree.
Taking advantage of this break, Han Feng asked Zhu Zhuqing, "Zhuqing, what kind of place is this Xingluo Ancestral Land? It's probably not a cemetery, is it?"
"What are you talking about!" Zhu Zhuqing wiped away her tears, rolled her eyes, and explained, "The Star Luo Ancestral Land is actually the origin of the Mu Bai family. As you know, the Star Luo royal family is said to be descendants of the God of War. That Star Luo Ancestral Land is actually the so-called land where the God of War inherits his legacy, and only each Star Luo emperor can enter it!"
"It is said that there is a War God's legacy in the ancestral land of Xingluo, but for thousands of years, no emperor has ever seen the so-called War God's legacy. It is probably just a means for the royal family to add mystery."
"Hmph! In the end, it's just to appease Mu Bai!" Zhu Zhuqing snorted at the end, quite dissatisfied.
That's right!
Instead of appointing Dai Mubai as crown prince, he allowed him to enter the ancestral land, which only the emperor could enter. This was merely a statement, telling Dai Mubai that although he would definitely become the Star Luo Emperor in the future, he was the emperor now. Only if I gave it to him could he take it; if I didn't give it to him, he couldn't take it!
But Han Feng's eyes lit up. Completely ignoring Zhu Zhuqing's implied meaning, he grinned and said mysteriously, "This ancestral land... is probably worth far more than that damned Crown Prince!"
"What?" Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong didn't understand what Han Feng was talking about. They both frowned and asked in confusion.
Han Feng, however, showed no interest in answering their questions. Instead, he focused his mind on the Divine Ancient Pearl within his sea of consciousness, urgently calling out, "Elder Yu! Elder Yu! Please respond! Please respond!"
To Han Feng's surprise, the God of Defense, who usually ignored him, gave him a rare response this time.
"What are you doing?! Instead of preparing for the divine exam, all you do is yell! Get to the point, I'm busy!" came the angry voice of the God of Defense from within the Divine Ancient Pearl.
"Hehe..." Han Feng chuckled awkwardly, but couldn't help rolling his eyes inwardly—Han Feng had tried to communicate with the God of Defense quite often, but the God of Defense had basically ignored him. Moreover, given the God of Defense's status in the God Realm, what could possibly be of his concern?
But of course, he couldn't say that aloud. Han Feng quickly said ingratiatingly, "Isn't this just to build a relationship with you, sir? Please don't be angry, I really do have something to ask you this time!"
"What is it!?" The God of Defense snorted impatiently and asked.
"It's like this!" Han Feng rubbed his hands together and laughed, "I wonder if Elder Yu still remembers my good brother who obtained the divine nature of the Fiend Qi!? He will be entering the inheritance ground of the God of War. Didn't you say last time that you could help cover for him? So I was thinking, could you help me out? If neither the Fiend Qi God nor the God of War has left behind their inheritance, then the God of Attack..."
"This matter..." The God of Defense pondered for a moment, then said confidently, "No problem! I understand!"
"Thank you very much, Elder Yu!" Han Feng was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly expressed his gratitude.
"Hmph! Thank me my ass! If you really want to thank me, you'd better hurry up and finish the divine test!" The God of Defense snorted coldly, then fell silent. The Divine Ancient Pearl also dimmed as the God of Defense remained silent.
Han Feng didn't care; instead, he grinned happily.
"Han Feng?" At the same time, Dai Mubai returned with the imperial decree, waved his hand in front of Han Feng's eyes, and called out again when Han Feng did not react.
Han Feng then came to his senses and looked around blankly. He found that the Star Luo Emperor had already returned, and most of the court officials and nobles had also dispersed. These people were not fools. Dai Mubai had won the battle of destiny but had not been made crown prince. The Star Luo Emperor's attitude was already very clear. If they contacted Dai Mubai now, wouldn't that be going against the Star Luo Emperor?
"What are you thinking about? Let's go back!" Dai Mubai gave Han Feng a strange look, then took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and walked into the palace.
Although Dai Mubai also had some dissatisfaction with the Star Luo Emperor, he was, after all, his father. Moreover, Dai Mubai had known about the Star Luo Emperor's greed for power for a long time and had been prepared for it, so he couldn't really say whether he had any complaints or not.
In any case, the Star Luo Emperor will abdicate sooner or later, and Dai Mubai will ascend the throne sooner or later. Moreover, Dai Mubai himself does not want to be bound by the identity of the emperor.
"Go back? Go back where?! Aren't you going to your ancestral home?!" Han Feng stood still, instead asking with a mocking expression.
"What's the point of going there? It's just a formality, it doesn't matter whether we go or not!" Dai Mubai rolled his eyes and replied dismissively.
"That's the inheritance of a god!" Han Feng coughed and said meaningfully.
"It's just a legend! A god..." Dai Mubai suddenly realized something, his steps faltered, and his expression shifted from disdain to astonishment, then to ecstatic joy. He grabbed Han Feng's shoulder and excitedly asked, "Are you sure!? What I possess isn't the divinity of the God of War!"
"Don't worry about that! All you need to do is unleash your divinity as much as possible!" Han Feng patted his chest and said confidently.
"Divinity? What kind of riddle are you talking about?" Han Feng and Dai Mubai naturally knew what they were talking about, but their conversation sounded completely incomprehensible to Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
Zhu Zhuqing frowned and asked softly.
Han Feng laughed and explained, "Zhu Qing! Your man is about to ascend to heaven! Actually, a year ago, Old Bai was already favored by the gods of the divine realm, leaving behind his divinity. After listening to what you just said, I'm certain that the Star Luo Ancestral Land will be able to communicate with the divine realm!"
"The Star Luo Ancestral Land combined with the divinity within Old Bai is definitely a divine inheritance!"
Han Feng did not mention his promise to the God of Defense—he did not want Dai Mubai to think that his divine position was given to him by someone else.
Of course, this is all on the premise that neither the God of War nor the deity who controls the evil energy has taken a liking to Dai Mubai!
"Haha! Fengzi, don't be modest! I'm just a wisp of divinity. You obtained the divine inheritance before the Soul Master Competition. If we're talking about ascending to heaven, you were there even earlier than me!" Dai Mubai said excitedly.
Han Feng didn't put on airs and readily agreed.
To Han Feng and Dai Mubai's surprise, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong showed no doubt or shock upon hearing their shocking remarks. Instead, they looked at them with strange and unsettling expressions.
"You attained divinity a year ago!?"
"You received divine inheritance a year ago!?"
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing looked at their beloved, their faces seemingly expressionless, but faint wisps of black energy could be seen swirling around them. Their eyes were filled with intense questioning as they asked in unison, "Why didn't you tell me?!"
Seeing this, Dai Mubai and Han Feng immediately realized that something terrible was about to happen!
"Fengzi told me not to say it!" Dai Mubai decisively shifted the blame to Han Feng!
Han Feng glared at Dai Mubai in shock and anger, but he was barely able to protect himself and couldn't care less about Dai Mubai. He quickly retorted, "When did I say that?! Besides, even if I did, I didn't tell you not to tell Zhu Qing!"
Then, Han Feng quickly said to Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, let me explain! It's not what you think. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just didn't want the other people in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to know. You know what those people in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are like. I didn't want them to use you as a tool to win me over! How can I let those old geezers interfere in our affairs?"
"Really?" Upon hearing Han Feng's words, Ning Rongrong's resentment dissipated, replaced by deep emotion. She stared at Han Feng with her big eyes and asked sweetly.
"Of course it's true!" Han Feng nodded repeatedly, making a move to pull Ning Rongrong into his arms.
To everyone's surprise, Ning Rongrong dodged away, looking at Han Feng with a shy and evasive gaze, and stammered, "Then... does Sister Qianqian know about this?"
"I don't know!" Han Feng blinked, answering with a puzzled look.
"That's more like it!" Ning Rongrong smiled sweetly upon hearing this, and took the initiative to hug Han Feng, burying her head in his arms so that he wouldn't see her blushing face.
On the other hand, things were much more difficult for Dai Mubai. Zhu Zhuqing slightly stretched out her cat paw, looking at Dai Mubai with an expressionless face, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you have anything else to say?"
"Gulp!" Dai Mubai swallowed hard, wanting to drag Han Feng into this mess, but Han Feng had already calmed Ning Rongrong down. Frustrated, Dai Mubai could only force himself to say, "Zhu Qing! I think the most urgent thing right now is to go check on the ancestral land!"
"Hmph!" Zhu Zhuqing didn't want to hear any of that. She snorted coldly, and in a flash, she was already in front of Dai Mubai. Instead of using her claws, she bit Dai Mubai's shoulder hard!
Dai Mubai grimaced, but dared not cry out. Instead, he endured the pain and gently hugged Zhu Zhuqing, repeatedly apologizing.
