487: One strike breaks the deadlock!
Lin Chen's brows furrowed slightly.
Three figures were seen floating in the distant sky.
In the blink of an eye, the three figures arrived at the square in front of the Heavenly Palace Trading House.
But that wasn't all.
Before long, over a hundred Half-step God Venerables wearing Law Enforcement Team uniforms appeared one after another.
They actually surrounded Lin Chen and Karl.
This scene immediately caused the many foreign races who had come to the Heavenly Palace Trading House to turn pale with fright.
"Something big has happened!"
"That's... the Law Enforcement Team and the Blue Feather Clan!"
"The Pig-man Clan is here too!"
"What happened? Karl is someone from above, how do they have the guts?"
"I heard some rumors that the human kid in front of Karl killed several Law Enforcement Team Members on a First-Level Life Planet below."
"The key point is, one of the members was from the Pig-man Clan..."
"I thought it was something major... just a few in the Ancestor Realm. That Pig-man was probably just from a side branch of the Pig-man Clan, otherwise, why would he go to such a remote place to be a minor Law Enforcement Team Member?"
"It's likely the Blue Feather Clan wants to use this incident as an excuse to make a move..."
"Shh! Keep your voice down, do you want to die? This is Blue Feather Clan territory; be careful they don't wipe you out as an accomplice in a moment."
"..."
Suddenly, the entire square became lively.
In a short time, hundreds of thousands of foreign race members gathered.
Most of these foreign races had expressions of gloating, as if watching a play.
People love to watch a commotion, no matter where they are... Lin Chen carefully scrutinized the three figures.
The Pig-man's aura was the weakest, similar to the Corpse Clan Divine Venerable on Blood Moon Star.
As for the other two figures.
One was an upright bird-man, covered in blue feathers, whose aura was a notch stronger than the Nightmare Clan Divine Venerable.
Lin Chen guessed he was at most at the Fourth Level of the God Venerable Realm.
The last figure had the strongest aura; he had two horns on his head and was covered in black scales.
Lin Chen guessed his race should be a branch of the Dragon Clan.
In the Heavenly Palace Realm, the branch races of the True Dragon Clan and True Phoenix Clan were the most numerous.
For example, the Azure Dragon Clan and Black Dragon Clan in the Lower Realm were all branches of the True Spirit Races.
The Blood Phoenix, Fire Phoenix, and so on were branches of the True Phoenix Clan... As for this Dragon Clan man's strength, Lin Chen couldn't easily judge it right now.
While Lin Chen was deep in thought, Karl walked toward the three Divine Venerables with a grim expression.
"Gentlemen, coming here like this for no reason, are you trying to provoke my Heavenly Palace Trading House?"
As soon as Karl finished speaking, over a thousand Half-step God Venerable Realm experts quickly rushed out of the Heavenly Palace Trading House.
At the same time, a short, stout man appeared.
This stout man carried a pair of massive golden war hammers, and his aura was incredibly powerful.
Lin Chen discovered that this man was from a branch of the Human Race—the Dwarf Clan.
The Dwarf Clan was extremely skilled at forging weapons and secret treasures, and their status in the Heavenly Palace Realm was very high.
"Sir, this is Deputy Shopkeeper Ross, with a cultivation at the Third Level of the God Venerable Realm."
Aili whispered from the side.
Deputy Shopkeeper?
Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly; he hadn't expected the Heavenly Palace Trading House to have the position of Deputy Shopkeeper.
"What's all this noise about?"
"Old Man Lan, what are you trying to do?"
"Do you think my Heavenly Palace Trading House is easy to bully?"
With a flash, the dwarf Ross arrived at Karl's side.
Ross's appearance immediately caused the three figures who had come here to look troubled.
It was well known that in the Heavenly Palace Realm.
One could offend anyone except the Dwarf Clan, let alone this Ross, who was a forging Grandmaster capable of forging legendary grade Divine Artifacts!
"Lord Ross, we have no ill intentions. It's just that Karl, as the General Shopkeeper, has condoned that human kid's violence."
"He publicly killed Law Enforcement Team Members, so we've come today to seek justice."
"Brother Long Cang, what do you say?"
The bird-man covered in blue feathers spoke in a calm tone.
He was the actual controller of this Blue Feather Star and a direct member of the Blue Feather Clan.
The one called Long Cang was the Dragon Clan member with the strongest aura that Lin Chen had sensed earlier.
He was the General Captain of the Law Enforcement Team on this Fourth-Level Life Planet, holding the same rank as Karl!
Long Cang sighed slightly and said:
"Karl, the fault in this matter lies with that human youth. Hand him over."
"Don't make things difficult for me."
Hearing this, Karl's Face showed a hint of anger as he said:
"The fault is not his; those pieces of trash from the Law Enforcement Team provoked him first."
After Karl finished speaking, he waved his hand.
Suddenly, the scene that had occurred on Yan Yu Star was replayed.
The Pig-man was seen leading several Law Enforcement Team Members to stop Lin Chen, speaking with extreme arrogance, wanting to take him away for a search... Anyone with eyes could see that these Law Enforcement Team Members wanted to embezzle Lin Chen's treasures.
"Young Friend Ye is a Five-star VIP user of my Heavenly Palace Trading House. They, mere Law Enforcement Team Members in the Ancestor Realm, dared to provoke him—killing them is just killing them!"
Karl said in a low voice.
"What? A Five-star VIP user?"
Hiss—
As soon as Karl said this, even the dwarf Ross beside him showed a look of surprise.
Not to mention the many foreign races watching.
They all gasped, their Faces filled with expressions of disbelief.
"I really couldn't tell; this human kid is only a Half-step God Venerable, yet he could obtain five-star VIP status."
"You should know that many in the Middle Stage of the God Venerable Realm might not necessarily meet the requirements for this status."
"..."
"Humph... so what!"
"Even if the Law Enforcement Team was in the wrong, their crime didn't warrant death, and besides, that human kid has no authority to enforce the law."
"Did my clansmen die for nothing?"
At this moment, the Pig-human Clan Ancestor spoke up.
As soon as he opened his mouth, a foul and pungent stench of urine spread out.
Karl and the others standing close by immediately and skillfully blocked their sense of smell.
Lin Chen's reaction was half a beat slower, and he was almost overcome by the stench.
"What the hell!"
"Were you Pig-men all raised in a urine pit?"
Lin Chen raised his hand and swung it fiercely.
Slap!
A crisp sound rang out.
The Pig-human Clan Ancestor was sent flying by Lin Chen's slap across the air.
"Get lost, don't disgust me here."
Lin Chen grumbled as he walked to the side of Karl and Ross.
At this moment, the expressions of these two were stiff, filled with disbelief.
What had they just seen?
You, a Half-step God Venerable, slapped a First Level God Venerable and sent him flying?
And now you're acting completely fearless?
Ross gave Lin Chen an annoyed glare and growled:
"Kid, do you think this isn't a big enough mess already?"
Karl also reacted quickly, immediately moving to protect Lin Chen.
Sure enough, the Pig-human Clan Ancestor who had been slapped away was completely enraged.
Boom—
He directly erupted with his aura and rushed over.
"Kid, I'm going to tear you to pieces!"
Seeing this, Karl snorted coldly and struck out with a palm.
The Pig-human Clan Ancestor was slammed directly into the ground, unable to crawl up for a long time.
"Karl, it seems you're beyond saving."
"As the General Captain of the Law Enforcement Team, I have the right to temporarily suspend you from your duties!"
"Seize that human kid for me!"
Long Cang roared with a grim expression.
For Lin Chen to take action in front of him was to not give him Face.
Immediately, over a hundred Law Enforcement Team Members rushed toward Lin Chen.
"Karl, if you dare to lift a finger, even your Revered Master won't be able to protect you!"
Long Cang said with a cold gaze.
Karl had originally intended to act, but now his body went stiff.
However, after only a moment's hesitation, he made up his mind.
He had to protect Young Friend Ye; he would take a gamble!
Boom—
He struck out with another palm, and the numerous Law Enforcement Team Members closing in were sent flying by the shockwave.
"You're looking for death!"
Long Cang roared.
The Blue Feather bird-man beside him was overjoyed; this was the moment he had been waiting for.
"Brother Long Cang, I'll help you take down Karl!"
The Pig-human Clan Ancestor also quickly scrambled up, his aura erupting as he charged at Lin Chen once more.
The corners of Lin Chen's mouth curled up slightly.
He slowly raised his hand, joined his fingers into a palm, and made a light, airy stroke.
Buzz—
A terrifying blade light slashed out!
The hair of everyone on both sides stood on end as they looked at Lin Chen in horror.
Squelch!
It was like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
The Pig-human Clan Ancestor had just flown into mid-air when he was shattered by the terrifying blade light.
Immediately, a rain of blood sprayed out, drenching Long Cang and the Blue Feather Clan bird-man.
