Diao Rongqi glanced at the young True God and then entered the small building alone.
Inside, Diao Rongqi imdiately saw Luo Feng and Morosa sitting there, eating delicacies and drinking wine.
“Diao Rongqi pays respects to Your Excellency.” Diao Rongqi knelt respectfully, her head touching the ground.
“Speak,” Luo Feng leisurely poured himself so wine.
“My father was killed, and the entire cave mansion, including over ten thousand beings, even infants, were all massacred,” Diao Rongqi knelt, “I only hope to avenge my father, to avenge all those who died in the cave mansion.”
“I begged the City Lord’s Mansion to kill the murderer, but they were unmoved.”
“I increased the bounty in the Dark Hall of the Yan Feng Pavilion, hoping soone would take action. But I waited all night, and no strong warrior stepped forward.”
“I know Your Excellency does not fear the Blood Python Society, so I ca to beg Your Excellency, hoping you would accept the bounty task and kill the leader of the Blood Python Society,” Diao Rongqi’s voice was hoarse, pleading.
Luo Feng and Morosa both looked at her.
“What do you have to offer ?” Luo Feng asked, “This banquet you prepared?”
Diao Rongqi, still kneeling, whispered, “I have nothing to offer. Almost all my wealth has been invested in the bounty at the Yan Feng Pavilion’s Dark Hall. Now, I only have ten thousand Cosmos Sand left. I am willing to offer these ten thousand Cosmos Sand to Your Excellency.”
“I know this amount of Cosmos Sand is far too little to ask for Your Excellency’s help. But I have nothing left, only my life.”
“I am willing to sell myself into slavery to serve Your Excellency for life. I have no other request, just to avenge my father.” Tears filled Diao Rongqi’s eyes, and her fluffy tail drooped to the side.
Luo Feng looked at her, “Sell yourself into slavery? Your father clearly made arrangents for you. Today, you also arrived on a flying boat of the Magili Clan. You could have lived a carefree life. Are you willing to give up everything and sell yourself into slavery just for revenge?”
“Yes,” Diao Rongqi knelt there without the slightest hesitation.
“Even if I kill the leader of the Blood Python Society, your father cannot be revived. For the sake of a dead father, you are willing to give up a lifeti of carefree days?” Luo Feng looked at her. The last ti he had seen this eldest daughter of the Diao Rong family, he could sense her arrogance. But now, she was completely different.
Diao Rongqi knelt, “He was my father! The person who loved most in this world, who always protected and cared for . His last ssage before his death was all about planning for my future. But… the father who loved most is gone! Those clan mbers I grew up with are also gone!”
“For revenge, I can do anything! At all costs! Even if it ans death and the destruction of my soul, I will do it willingly!” Diao Rongqi looked at Luo Feng.
“Your father’s last ssage was all about planning for your future. He probably hoped you would live well,” Luo Feng said, “You do not need to sell yourself into slavery. Keep your remaining ten thousand Cosmos Sand and cultivate well. Live as your father wished. As for your request for to take action, I was already planning to accept a bounty task.”
“The leader of the Blood Python Society will be my first bounty target,” Luo Feng said.
Diao Rongqi stared blankly at Luo Feng.
No need for Cosmos Sand, no need to sell herself into slavery, and he would help her?
“I am willing to serve Your Excellency,” Diao Rongqi said gratefully.
“No need,” Luo Feng shook his head slightly, “Go back to the Magili Clan first, and rember to keep this matter secret.”
Diao Rongqi nodded repeatedly.
She understood the need for secrecy.
“Before dark, you will get the news,” Luo Feng waved his hand slightly, “You may leave.”
“Thank you, Your Excellency,” Diao Rongqi bowed deeply, then stood up and left.
As Diao Rongqi walked out of the small building, her emotions surged. She saw Moyu Qingyan standing guard at the door and felt a touch of envy. She wanted to serve as a slave, but even that was not accepted by Your Excellency.
“Miss,” Suo Yun quickly ca to greet her.
“Suo Yun, my father is dead, the Diao Rong family is finished,” Diao Rongqi said, “You don’t need to be my guard anymore.” She patted Suo Yun’s shoulder, and a jade bottle appeared in Suo Yun’s robe.
Suo Yun was stunned, almost unable to believe it.
Diao Rongqi quickly left on a flying boat of the Magili Clan.
“The Diao Rong family is finished?” Suo Yun, who had been guarding the small Fire Realm Restaurant, wasn’t well-inford and didn’t know what had happened last night. He sensed the small jade bottle with his divine power and couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy, “Five hundred chaos crystals! The young lady is truly generous.”
Even though he was quite talented, serving as a guard for the Diao Rong family for a whole epoch would only earn him 10 chaos crystals. This ti, the young lady had dismissed him and given him five hundred chaos crystals, which was indeed a fortune for a True God.
He also understood that he was given so many chaos crystals because he had done a ritorious service.
“With these, I can buy resources to refine my divine body and bloodline. Along with the previous inheritance techniques, I have a good chance of becoming a Void True God,” Suo Yun thought to himself, feeling a surge of excitent, and turned to leave.
…
At this mont, the owner of the Fire Realm Restaurant, the ‘Black Butcher,’ also saw Suo Yun leaving.
“This guard Suo Yun has been staying at my Fire Realm Restaurant for so ti. Now he finally leaves?” the Black Butcher thought, “The eldest daughter of the Diao Rong family also seed strange earlier. She usually brought her guard team, but this ti she arrived on a flying boat of the Magili Clan?”
The Black Butcher felt sothing was amiss. He had ventured through reincarnation to the Origin Continent and struggled in Huyang City, still stuck at the Void True God level. Naturally, he wasn’t well-inford and didn’t know about the destruction of the Diao Rong family.
“Black Butcher!” A commanding voice called out, and a red-haired man, Duan Moyun, arrived at the Fire Realm Restaurant with a few subordinates.
“Duan Hall Master.” The fat Black Butcher greeted enthusiastically. As a mber of the Law lineage, he had trained for many years on the Origin Continent and was undoubtedly among the top Void True Gods, fully capable of suppressing Duan Moyun. But he didn’t dare to be disrespectful, as the other was a hall master of the Blood Python Society.
“Duan Hall Master, it’s rare to see you at my little restaurant,” the Black Butcher said warmly.
“Black Butcher,” Duan Moyun said, “I am here to deliver an order.”
The Black Butcher asked curiously, “What order?”
“The president has ordered that all businesses within our Blood Python Society’s territory must pay a hundred epochs’ worth of tribute fees at once,” Duan Moyun said.
“A hundred epochs’ worth of tribute fees?” The Black Butcher was shocked and hurriedly said, “Didn’t we always pay the tribute fees every epoch? I’ve never shorted the Blood Python Society.”
“The rules have changed. Now, a hundred epochs’ worth of fees must be paid at once. After this paynt, the next one will be in a hundred epochs,” Duan Moyun smiled, “We at the Blood Python Society do not overcharge.”
The Black Butcher hurriedly said, “But where would I get that much?”
“All businesses within our Blood Python Society’s territory are subject to this rule,” Duan Moyun said, “You have three days to pay. If you don’t… you should know the consequences of defying the Blood Python Society.”
The Black Butcher’s face turned grim.
“The ssage has been delivered, start preparing,” Duan Moyun said, turning to leave with his subordinates.
“Master, a hundred epochs’ worth of tribute fees in three days?” a disciple asked worriedly.
The Black Butcher shook his head gently, “Businesses with backgrounds can ignore the Blood Python Society, but we do not have that privilege! If we dare not pay, we might lose our lives silently.”
Since the Blood Python Society had decided to collect a hundred epochs’ worth of tribute fees at once, they would certainly kill to make an example! Those who dared not pay would be killed!
Having survived in Huyang City till today, the Black Butcher knew well what to do and what not to do.
Even though he understood, he still felt stifled, “Sigh, it’s so hard to run a small restaurant in this Huyang City.”
“The Blood Python Society is collecting a hundred epochs’ worth of tribute fees?” a voice sounded.
The Black Butcher turned to see Luo Feng and Morosa approaching.
“Your Excellency heard?” The Black Butcher said helplessly, “The Blood Python Society’s order leaves no room for a small restaurant like mine to resist.”
“The Blood Python Society is indeed crazy,” Luo Feng nodded, “Fortunately, I’ve dealt with them before.”
The Black Butcher muttered to himself.
Dealt with them?
Who in Huyang City didn’t know that Luo He Divine Lord had suppressed the Blood Python Society, forcing them to obediently compensate with twenty thousand Cosmos Sand!
“I’ll speak for you when the ti cos, it should exempt you from this tribute fee,” Luo Feng said.
“This is really too much trouble for Your Excellency,” the Black Butcher quickly said. In Huyang City, so businesses with backgrounds wouldn’t pay the tribute fees. Only the weak businesses like his had no choice. If Luo He Divine Lord spoke for him, his restaurant’s future would be much better.
“My face should be worth sothing,” Luo Feng said, then left with Morosa and Moyu Qingyan.
The Black Butcher watched Luo Feng leave, full of joy, “The Blood Python Society wouldn’t fight Luo He Excellency over a small restaurant like mine. Ah, if His Excellency likes my restaurant, my future days will be much better.”
Having a backer could indeed exempt one from a lot of exploitation.
…
“Master, are we going to the Blood Python Society now?” In the sky above the bustling Huyang City, Morosa’s eyes were blazing with eagerness, while Moyu Qingyan beside him was sowhat bewildered.
Go to the Blood Python Society? Is it really necessary to rush for the sake of the Fire Realm Restaurant? At this mont, Moyu Qingyan still didn’t know that Luo Feng intended to deal with the Blood Python Society’s president.
“We’re going now,” Luo Feng nodded, “Let’s go.”
Whoosh!
Luo Feng took his two servants, transforming into a blurred stream of light and heading straight for the Blood Python Society’s headquarters.
Soon, the vast and magnificent headquarters of the Blood Python Society appeared in sight. Many mbers of the Blood Python Society could be seen scattered everywhere, with formations running, exuding an extrely terrifying aura.
“You two stay outside and guard,” Luo Feng said, glancing at Morosa.
“Yes, Master,” Morosa responded, grabbing Moyu Qingyan, who was a bit puzzled. Isn’t it customary for servants to follow their master when visiting?
Morosa also sent a ntal ssage, “Master, rest assured, even if the Blood Python Society’s president tries to escape, I can intercept him.”
“Just watch, I can handle him!” Luo Feng replied ntally, then flew towards the main gate of the Blood Python Society’s headquarters.
“Save the president’s body for ,” Morosa transmitted ntally, feeling greedy. The true body of the famous president of the Blood Python Society must be far superior to Black Domor’s.
At this mont, Luo Feng had already flown near the main gate of the Blood Python Society’s headquarters. Simultaneously, using the communication token of the Dark Hall of Yan Feng Pavilion, he instantly accepted the task of ‘assassinating the Blood Python Society’s president, Mu Yang.’
