179: Do you know what the destined protagonist is?

Chu Feng looked at the woman indifferently, his tone casual: “Then please tell me, Fellow Daoist.”

After learning of her intention, Chu Feng chose to refuse without a second thought.

No other reason.

He had no interest in joining other forces and being someone's dog.

As a villain, if he were to be anything, he would be a wolf king.

He probably also knew what this heavenly destiny female lead was going to do.

This woman came from the Supreme Realm and invited him to join the Hongmeng Divine Alliance; it was clear that he was too outstanding and had attracted attention.

Although he had no interest in the Hongmeng Divine Alliance, he didn't mind learning about the Supreme Realm.

But… the question was, why would a heavenly destiny female lead come to invite a villain like him?

When did villains get this kind of treatment?

He was puzzled, but his expression was calm, as cold as a rock.

The Scarlet-Clad Girl’s laughter was still pleasant: “Fellow Daoist Chu, don’t be so distant, just call me Hong’er, okay?”

Chu Feng smiled faintly, saying nothing.

Seeing his wary look, the Scarlet-Clad Girl could only continue: “Before introducing the Hongmeng Divine Alliance, I must introduce you to a concept.”

Her flame-like eyes stared intently at Chu Feng, and she asked, word by word: “Do you know what a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is?”

Chu Feng’s obsidian-like eyes met hers, without a ripple, and he said indifferently: “Oh? What’s that? Never heard of it.”

Hong’er’s smile deepened as she explained: “A Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is a person in this world who embodies great Luck.”

“They are often the Sons of Heavenly Destiny in their respective worlds, favored by the Heavenly Dao, beloved by the world, and no matter their background, they can ultimately reach the pinnacle of their world, shine brightly, and become the focus of all.”

Chu Feng seemed to be deep in thought.

Su Ji in his arms was also surprised.

Clearly, it was also her first time hearing the term Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.

After three seconds of contemplation, Chu Feng slowly said: “It’s just a change of name for a person with great Luck. Just playing mysterious.”

Hong’er shook her head and said: “Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken.”

“If it were just that, then it could indeed only be called a person with great Luck.”

“The biggest difference between a person with great Luck and a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is that a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist… often possesses extremely special abilities or Spirit Treasures.”

Chu Feng narrowed his eyes, appearing somewhat interested, and nodded: “For example?”

“For example, him.”

“You know his origin, right?”

“The legend of the Immortal Realm and the Sword Domain, his talent was mediocre back then; if he Cultivated normally, he would at most reach True Immortal, which would already be remarkable.”

Hong’er pointed to Floating Slaughter Sword Master not far away, using him as an example, and slowly explained.

Floating Slaughter Sword Master: “…”

He was silent for a moment, then said angrily: “Fellow Daoist Hong, I respect you, but that doesn’t mean you can insult me.”

Hong’er frowned and scolded coldly: “Shut up, you listen carefully too, this is also an Opportunity for you.”

Floating Slaughter Sword Master: ???

You expose my shortcomings in front of me, and you even call it an Opportunity?

Bullying people isn't done like this, is it?

He retorted stubbornly: “There’s no such thing, my talent has never been bad, it was just obscured when I was young.”

At this moment, Su Ji in Chu Feng’s arms softly interjected: “It’s strange, though.”

“Given his background back then, his talent was indeed very ordinary, only the lowest tier in the Sky Sword Clan. He and Su Cheng even competed for the qualification to be sent to the Lower Realm, but unfortunately, he failed.”

“To say he could reach True Immortal is already an exaggeration.”

Su Ji had no feelings for Floating Slaughter Sword Master now and directly exposed Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s past.

Floating Slaughter Sword Master gritted his teeth, his cold gaze falling on her, intending to curse.

As if remembering the past, the words on his lips ultimately stopped.

Chu Feng also spoke up at this moment, seemingly interested: “If that’s the case, then what does a waste like him have to do with the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist you mentioned?”

Hong’er smiled and said: “Just as he said, he’s not actually a waste, he was just a pearl obscured by dust.”

“Those with great Luck are born with Luck shrouding them, sailing smoothly through life, pushing through everything unrivaled.”

“But often, when they reach a certain Realm, their Luck runs out, and that’s where it ends; it’s difficult for them to have another Breakthrough in their lifetime.”

“But a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is different.”

“A Heavenly Mandate Protagonist doesn't necessarily have a smooth journey like those with great Luck; there are also people like him who fail repeatedly, rise continuously, and ultimately achieve great things.”

“Besides truly having talent, there’s one biggest difference that allows them to rise.”

Chu Feng smiled without speaking, nodding to signal her to continue.

Hong’er’s finger landed on Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s waist: “See? This treasure on his waist is a congenital dao artifact.”

“You might not know what a congenital dao artifact is, but it doesn’t matter, I’ll tell you.”

“Above immortal king spiritual treasure is supreme emperor artifact.”

“Above supreme emperor artifact is Dao Artifact, and above Dao Artifact is congenital dao artifact.”

“Like immortal king spiritual treasure, supreme emperor artifact and Dao Artifact all have clear grade divisions: Low Grade, Medium Grade, High Grade, and Supreme.”

“And this little gourd on his waist is a congenital dao artifact.”

“Not only can it gather Luck and convert it for his own use, but the Spirit Treasure on the congenital dao artifact is also knowledgeable and knows many legendary secrets.”

“It is extremely useful for his Cultivation.”

“And when did he obtain this congenital dao artifact?”

“Before he even became an Immortal.”

“This is very illogical. A small Cultivator who hasn’t even become an Immortal can actually possess a supreme congenital dao artifact.”

“Moreover, this congenital dao artifact has a Spirit and is willing to recognize him as its master.”

“Now you know how terrifying a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is, right?”

“The biggest difference between a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist and someone with great Luck is the presence of illogical characteristics on their person.”

“Our Hongmeng Divine Alliance often divides situations with such illogical characteristics into one to nine stages.”

“From stage one to seven, if they possess this abnormal characteristic, we attribute it to great Luck.”

“But stages eight and nine have the chance to become seeds.”

“As long as they can Breakthrough the ninth-stage characteristic, then they are definitely a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.”

“Don’t look at Floating Slaughter Sword Master as so special; in reality, he can only be considered a ninth-stage characteristic, just a seed.”

“Without breaking through the ninth stage, it’s impossible to truly transform into a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.”

Hong’er sighed, eloquently explaining the Hongmeng Divine Alliance’s definition of a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.

As her words fell, Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s face was as ugly as a dead horse.

You clearly explained it.

But my past was also completely exposed.

The little gourd was his biggest secret!

After all these years, it was the first time it had been publicly revealed.

He roared angrily: “Hong’er, you’ve committed a great taboo!”

Hong’er glanced at him and comforted him: “No, it won’t happen.”

“Don’t worry, I have a sense of proportion; they can’t hear.”

Her slender jade finger pointed at Su Cheng, Fei Yang, and the others, finding them utterly bewildered.

All of her previous words, these people couldn’t hear.

Floating Slaughter Sword Master exploded!

The people who least should have heard, had already heard!

She explained again: “Only Chu Feng and Su Ji can know; they are both our own people.”

“Su Ji watched you grow up from a young age.”

“As for Chu Feng, he is already a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist, and his future achievements will far surpass yours, so you don’t need to worry about your secret being known by him.”

“The gap between you is too great; there’s no need to compare; you’re not qualified.”

Floating Slaughter Sword Master: “…”

Veins popped on his forehead; he really wanted to make a move.

This woman, relying on her noble birth, spoke without restraint and was too venomous.

“So that’s how it is. I’ve certainly learned a lot.”

“According to what you said, am I actually a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist?”

“Then can you tell me what characteristics I have?”

Chu Feng’s voice, full of sudden understanding, rang out.

With a casual lift of his hand, terrifying Law power descended, and he effortlessly snatched the little gourd from Floating Slaughter Sword Master’s waist, which belonged to him.
