Dream Butterfly gulped down her saliva. Her nerves were wracked with fear, but she did not say anything more and simply closed her eyes, bracing for the pain that might co and end her life. But...
"Never thought that the shaless little smug child of Murong Zhengde would inherit his shalessness." A charismatic and disdainful voice drew Murong Wen’s attention away from the courtesan in front of him.
He looked toward the source of the voice and saw a charismatic man with a goatee who looked like an old dandy. It was none other than Hua Zuixian, the Drunken Immortal.
"Who are you?" Murong Wen asked, his tone cold and threatening.
Hua Zuixian ignored the threatening tone of the junior in front of him. His eyes rested on the two Dao Protectors beside Murong Wen. Both of them were weaker than him by one realm, though not by much.
The two Dao Protectors beside Murong Wen were at the half step Void Refining Realm, while he himself was at the early stage of the Void Refining Realm. If artifacts were taken into account, the two together might possess combat power equal to his.
Unlike them, he did not have the backing of a large clan, so he lacked powerful artifacts, while the two might each have one or two that could give him an unpleasant surprise.
"I am Hua Zuixian. People call the Drunken Immortal. I am the current protector of the Immortal Dream Garden," Hua Zuixian said with a mocking smile.
"The current protector?" Murong Wen turned toward Dream Butterfly as if he wanted to confirm whether it was true. "You already have as your protector. Is that not enough? Do you think the young master of the Murong Clan cannot protect your tower?" Murong Wen asked in agitation.
"Isn’t that obvious? It is because they think you cannot protect them that they needed to change the protector," another voice said.
Murong Wen quickly turned toward the new voice. It was Wei Chen, who chid in as he slowly floated toward the group.
"You, lowly vagabond!" Murong Wen said with hatred. He rembered this vagabond. The last ti, this vagabond had ruined his plan to kidnap this woman. If not for this nosy vagabond, he might have already claid her.
"Yeah, I’m a vagabond. So what? Don’t like it? Co bite then," Wei Chen said casually. He did not give a damn about Murong Wen’s status.
To him, a young master who could not wise up was not worth the effort to educate. At most, he would beat the shit out of them and leave them unable to get out of bed for a year or two.
Hearing the undisguised provocation from Wei Chen, Murong Wen sneered. He had not bought a U-Phone, and none of his subordinates had bought one either. After the commotion at the Immortal Dream Garden, he had been trying to avoid City Lord Li and escape to the Vermilion Bird Province, which at that ti was still not included in the broadcasting range.
In his mory, Wei Chen was still at the Soul Transformation Realm and only fortunate enough to possess combat techniques from the golden era. He believed that his two Dao protectors, equipped with their artifacts and trump cards, could easily handle him.
All of these factors led Murong Wen to choose his actions very..... poorly.
"Kill him!" The command filled with hatred burst from Murong Wen’s mouth.
The two Dao protectors moved at once. One rushed toward Wei Chen from the front to draw his attention, while the other flanked from the left side.
Wei Chen tried to slap the first one, but the Dao protector was on guard and raised his arm to block.
Slap!
The blow crushed his arm, and the slap landed resoundingly on the Dao protector’s face, slamming his head into the ground and half burying it.
This left the second Dao protector, who had already flanked him. Instead of dodging or guarding against the attack, Wei Chen did not react at all, as if he could not sense the threat.
The second Dao protector smiled in glee, thinking that this vagabond could not react to his speed. However, a sudden sense of crisis surged in his heart. A sharp pain pierced his lung, and a hot, searing fla burned through his body.
It was at this mont that he realized his body had been bitten by the powerful jaws of the Heavenly Fire Wolf.
The sudden attack left him no chance to scream. The massive fangs punctured his lung, collapsing it, while searing flas burned him from the inside out.
He wanted to scream, but the fire and the collapsed lung left him completely incapable of making a sound.
Snap!
His body snapped in half, both halves burned to a crisp and left unrecognizable by the heavenly fire.
Max sent the body flying toward Murong Wen. This damn human had dared to command his lackeys to attack his personal cook. Only death was the fate deserved for such sacrilege.
Dream Butterfly was startled by the grueso scene in front of her. The vicious and violent nature of the beast was fully on display.
However, she was only startled because of her sheltered life and did not scream. She held it in, afraid that screaming would make her look like a flower in a greenhouse, soone who could not survive in the world, and that her Lord Wei would look down on her.
Murong Wen looked at his two Dao protectors. One had half his head buried in the floor, looking ridiculous and humiliating. The other was dead, his body incomplete and burned to a crisp.
Especially the second one. The burned corpse, snapped in half by a powerful bite, made his heart quiver with trepidation. He looked at Max, who was sitting beside Wei Chen and towering above him.
True to its na, the Heavenly Fire Wolf was as vicious and powerful as the rumors said.
But Murong Wen, who had been protected all his life and had never faced a setback until eting Wei Chen, still felt that this vagabond would never dare touch him. The power and influence of the Murong Clan were second only to the Vermilion Bird Dynasty, the ruler of the strongest province on the continent.
All of this still wrapped him in a facade of safety.
"Do you know what you have done? You killed one of my Dao protectors!" Murong Wen snapped his fan shut in irritation and pointed it at Wei Chen.
"Ah? Am I supposed to act like an idiot and beco your Dao protector’s punching bag? You wanted to kill . Am I not allowed to defend myself?" Wei Chen retorted as if he had just heard sothing utterly ridiculous.
"What kind of f*cking logic is that? Did your mother drop you on your head and turn you stupid? Or is stupidity in your bloodline? Like so kind of special physique?" Wei Chen’s mouth spewed fire, making Murong Wen’s face turn red and green with anger.
"Hahahahaha! Yeah, I do think his stupidity is in his bloodline! What was he thinking, letting his two Dao protectors who are in the Peak Soul Transformation Realm attack a cultivator who could defeat soone in the Void Refining Realm within their own domain? Even I cannot do that!" Hua Zuixian let out an undisguised mocking laugh.
Hearing Hua Zuixian’s words, Murong Wen’s face turned pale. He did not know that. If he had known, he would have retreated first and then slowly planned his revenge later.
What did defeating a Void Refining Realm cultivator in their own domain represent? It represented combat prowess beyond one realm. Either the opponent cultivated a heaven defying cultivation thod, was stronger than their opponent by two minor realms, or had great discernnt to see through realm weaknesses.
None of these possibilities were good news for Murong Wen.
.... Within the Chat Room ....
Handso Tall and Rich: [It’s good that I have a U-Phone, otherwise I would not have known about the imnsity of the world. Unfortunately, this U-Phone does not have the function to record this scene and play it back. Murong Wen’s face turned pale, then red and green. If I could watch this every ti before going to bed, I would have very good dreams.]
Little Wealthy Demon: [Hmm, playback? That is an interesting proposal. Better yet, if U-Phone could record and display content like Wei Chen does, it would be even better. We would have more entertainnt to enjoy, and it would be good for business too.]
Little Wealthy Demon: [After I fend off those invaders, I will have a talk with Wei Chen about this. I think the U-Phone could use a new version.]
Handso Tall and Rich: [Huh? Why is Brother Wei involved? Wait, do not tell .]
Little Wealthy Demon: [Yeah, this guy brought the U-Phone blueprint to us. From what I have discussed with Sect Leader Jian Ganglie, I do not think the current version of the U-Phone offers all of its potential functions.]
Handso Tall and Rich: [What? Brother Wei! I will buy a new version of the U-Phone blueprint for ten million spirit stones.]
Little Wealthy Demon: [HAHAHAHA! He is my man. Do you think he will sell it to you? Keep dreaming.]
The Pillar of Wealth: [I never regretted having only sons until today.]
Handso Tall and Rich: [What do you an, Father?]
