241: Prison Emperor

Chu Feng lowered his gaze, watching the beautiful woman's eyelashes tremble continuously, her round, tender chin slightly raised, her eyes meeting his, filled with anxiety.

Suddenly, his heart stirred, and he immediately understood.

"Hell Emperor, Scarlet Sand?"

He remembered Yin Empress saying that Hong was part of the Hell lineage.

Huang Ji and Yin Empress, as the leaders of the Human Emperor lineage, having their daughter in the Hell lineage was inherently unreasonable.

Even if Scarlet Sand was saved by the Hell lineage, it wouldn't necessarily mean she would switch allegiance.

The only possibility was that Scarlet Sand inherited the Hell Legacy and became the Hell Emperor, which would explain why she and Huang Ji were in separate factions.

There was also a most important point.

As the leader of the Hell lineage, the Hell Emperor had yet to appear, even though he had already broken through the Grandmist God Realm.

Yet, when these members of the Grandmist Divine Alliance mentioned the Hell Emperor, their words and expressions showed no resentment, proving that they all clearly knew that the Hell Emperor's absence wasn't due to unwillingness, but genuine inability.

Looking at Yin Empress's anxious expression, it would be strange if he still couldn't guess the Hell Emperor's identity.

Tian Feng glanced at the voice coming from the black mist, his heart trembled, vaguely guessing something, but his expression remained calm as he explained to Chu Feng: "Lord of the Heavenly Court is wise, to have guessed that Scarlet Sand is the Hell Emperor."

"That Prodigy in our alliance, named Scarlet Sand, broke the Hongmeng Divine Tower record and obtained a Legacy, which was the Hell Emperor Legacy. She later died in the Divine Tower, and the Hell lineage intervened to save her, preserving a sliver of her life. Unexpectedly, by a twist of Opportunity, she completely inherited the Hell Emperor's position."

"It's just a pity that the Hell Emperor's current state is unknown, hovering between life and death, unable to leave an imprint."

He sighed. Scarlet Sand was an extremely outstanding Prodigy of the Grandmist Divine Alliance. She inherited the Hell Emperor's position but was in an unknown state of life or death, which often caused many strong individuals in the alliance who favored her to feel regret.

"So that's how it is."

Chu Feng held the Human Emperor Seal in his left hand and the Supreme Emperor Seal in his right.

With a thought, two golden Divine Stones, imprinted with the word 'Grandmist', appeared in his palm.

Everyone who witnessed this scene twitched their mouths.

Opening a Grandmist imprint for himself, and two at that, was quite something, wasn't it?

Chu Feng didn't care about others' opinions; he was very clear about Scarlet Sand's situation.

It was precisely because a wisp of Scarlet Sand's split soul wanted to become his Dao Companion that he, by a twist of Opportunity, joined the Grandmist Divine Alliance, this warm and protagonist-filled family.

Yin Empress was right; knowing that Scarlet Sand was the Hell Emperor, he naturally couldn't kill her.

Hong was his future Dao Companion.

Scarlet Sand and Hong were one, so Scarlet Sand was also his Dao Companion.

They were all family; there should be no fighting and killing.

Because of this, Chu Feng frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "The Human Emperor seat is vacant; I can directly ascend. As for Scarlet Sand, who has become a living dead, it should not be difficult to revive her."

Win Mountain, hearing his arrogant words at this moment, spoke coldly, "Give up. I admit you are a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist and possess great Karma, which is very shocking, but the Hell Emperor and the Tower Spirit both died; they weren't just injured. You can't just save them because you say so."

"There's no way you can become the Alliance Leader of our Grandmist Divine Alliance."

Before Scarlet Sand obtained the Hell Emperor Legacy, he, as the leader of the Hell lineage in the Grandmist Divine Alliance, was widely recognized as the most promising candidate to obtain the Hell Emperor Legacy. Being surpassed by a junior who snatched his position, he had always held a grudge.

Fortunately, Scarlet Sand died in the Hongmeng Divine Tower; otherwise, his authority in Hell would have been challenged.

Therefore, he was very clear about Scarlet Sand's current state, hovering between life and death; it was very difficult to save her or for her to die!

Hearing Win Mountain's words, the other discontented members of the Grandmist Divine Alliance also watched Chu Feng with sneers.

With Huang Ji incapacitated, they still harbored strong animosity towards Chu Feng in their hearts.

Since they couldn't defeat him, it was still good to see him lose composure and be frustrated.

"Don't mind them."

Just as Chu Feng was pondering a countermeasure, Yin Empress's voice suddenly came to his ear.

Five words, simple and direct.

"Hong can give the imprint."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng looked at Yin Empress's charming and affectionate face and smiled.

Indeed, only protagonists face numerous difficulties.

Villains' affairs always go smoothly.

This woman had merit and should be rewarded.

Chu Feng looked at Win Mountain and the other Heavenly Mandate Protagonists, who were sneering and watching the show.

His main goal in coming to the Grandmist Divine Alliance was the hongmeng mirror, not to play with these insignificant people.

After settling the Grandmist imprints of the Heaven, Earth, and Human lineages, he needed to research how to create a new Tower Spirit.

"Tian Feng."

"Lord of the Heavenly Court, I am here."

Tian Feng scurried forward, watching the black mist dissipate. Yin Empress's eyes were red and swollen, her expression blank, occasionally sobbing, as if she had suffered immense humiliation. For a moment, he became uncertain about his own guesses.

Chu Feng said indifferently, "I still have some matters to attend to. Find a few trustworthy people to help me take good care of them."

His gaze swept over the row of dog cages, emphasizing the words "take good care."

Tian Feng blinked, also looking at those familiar faces. He clearly understood that this was a test of his loyalty.

He immediately patted his chest and guaranteed, "Lord of the Heavenly Court, rest assured, I will not fail your trust."

Before, if he had thought Chu Feng was a villain, he would have had some misgivings. Now, discovering that he was one of their own, he felt even more at ease.

He knew very well that from today onwards, everything would change.

The Grandmist Divine Alliance, from today onwards, would be renamed the Heavenly Court!

Under the leadership of the Lord of the Heavenly Court, it would flourish and grow stronger!

The Lord of the Heavenly Court told him to "take care" of them, and he had to complete this task well. If anyone escaped, he was very sure that the Lord of the Heavenly Court would come looking for trouble.

【Ding!】

【Tian Feng has been promoted to your Advanced lackey. Loyalty has been permanently increased to 100%.】

【Your Luck has increased.】

Eh?

Chu Feng looked at the handsome young man in front of him in surprise.

I didn't do anything; how did you become my lackey?

This was the first time he had encountered someone who voluntarily became a lackey.

This kind of situation could only be achieved through self-cultivation and self-improvement to full loyalty.

You are a Nine Stars Giant, and you are so sensible. I'm a little embarrassed.

"Work hard. Don't call me Lord of the Heavenly Court anymore; call me Chu Heavenly Emperor."

Chu Feng patted Tian Feng's shoulder. The moment he patted him, all of Tian Feng's injuries recovered, and he became energetic.

Feeling his body recover, he said with tears in his eyes and a trembling voice, "Thank you, Dad."

"Poof!"

Huang Ji's eyes rolled back. Under the shocked gazes of everyone, he spat out a mouthful of old blood and collapsed.

【Heavenly Mandate Protagonist Huang Ji's Supreme Affection Dao Gu has flared up, causing severe injuries. Under the blessing of his fate, 8 million Destiny Value has been deducted. You used a Heavenly Mandate Critical Strike Talisman, and this reduction in Destiny Value will have an additional critical deduction of 3.25 million. You have obtained 3 upper-grade heavenly mandate treasure chests.】

After bidding farewell to Huang Ji, Chu Feng appeared with Yin Empress in a magnificent hall.

Hongmeng Hall!

The hall was spacious, with countless supreme treasures arranged on both sides, and various Divine Lamps formed by Laws floated in the Void Realm.

It was infinitely more grand than Yin Empress's small, dilapidated hall.

This was the core of the Grandmist Divine Alliance. On ordinary days, if there was anything important, numerous Heavenly Mandate Protagonists would hold meetings here!

Inside the Hongmeng Hall, the seating arrangements were meticulous, forming a circle, symbolizing equality.

But at the very top, cloud mist formed a staircase, leading to a special position that overlooked the Hongmeng Hall.

Chu Feng swaggered to the top seat, like the monarch of this place.
