241: Chapter 239: Kicking the Lord of Dongheng City, I'm giving you face, right?
Feng Yuan was ambitious, and after learning of Jehovah's fall, his confidence soared, and he was full of vigor.
However, Gu Shengge, who had seen his lifeline, did not look so calm, because according to the lifeline he saw, this guy still had an old man above him, and it was still too early for him to ascend to the throne!
Before long, Gu Shengge and the others saw that old man. He was a scrawny old man with wrinkled skin like old tree bark.
Seeing the boisterous Feng Yuan, he frowned and said, “As the Young City Lord of Dongheng City, you have no demeanor!”
Feng Yuan excitedly said, “Father Emperor, Jehovah is really dead, he is really dead!”
Upon hearing this, the old man’s expression changed drastically, and he said in panic, “Watch your words! Watch your words! And you don’t have a Father Emperor. I am your father, just the City Lord of Dongheng City!”
Feng Yuan said impatiently, “Father Emperor, Jehovah is really dead. These people are Cultivators from the Qiongsang Domain. They came from outside.”
He excitedly introduced Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing to his Father Emperor.
But the old man only glanced at them indifferently, then withdrew his gaze.
“Hmph, Jehovah is already a Peak Hedao Realm powerhouse, how could he fall so easily!”
Upon hearing this, Jun Mengqing said impatiently, “But that guy has indeed fallen, and it was our Dao Child who personally killed him!”
Upon hearing this, the old man looked at Gu Shengge in astonishment.
Gu Shengge also didn’t want to argue with him, so he released his pressure. Although there was no Qi of the Hedao Realm, the profound pressure on him made people feel startled and fearful.
After looking at the old man’s lifeline, Gu Shengge already understood his situation.
When this old man was young, as the leader of the East, he had been fighting with Jehovah. In this process, he initially had the upper hand by virtue of being older than Jehovah.
But later, when Jehovah rose, he became the one who was constantly suppressed.
He fought repeatedly, failed repeatedly, and in the end, he was still no match and was severely suppressed by Jehovah.
Yet, the other party didn't kill him, but instead made him continue to lead the Eastern Cultivators to submit to Jehovah.
During this period, he also secretly tried to resist, but repeated failures completely broke him down, and since then, he completely dared not resist Jehovah.
Now, rumors are spreading outside that the Realm Lord Jehovah has fallen, but he doesn't believe it. Jehovah is cunning and treacherous, and it might just be Jehovah testing him, or a new Move concocted to humiliate him.
In any case, he absolutely doesn't believe it. Jehovah is highly unlikely to die.
Gu Shengge only felt helpless. Although he had long known this would be the outcome, facing this old geezer still made him furious.
In Feng Yuan's original destiny, this old man delayed for a full ten years. It was only when Feng Yuan, in a fit of rage, staged a coup and directly confined the old man in the deep palace that the Eastern territory had a chance to rise.
After Gu Shengge arrived here, he naturally had to change things. He walked up to the old man and said coldly:
“Whether you believe it or not, immediately prepare to hand over the power of the Eastern territory of the Yuan Heaven Realm to your son, Feng Yuan.”
Upon hearing this, the old man’s face was filled with cold killing intent, and a chilling light flickered in his eyes: “Young Man, you may have some strength, but if you want to bring eternal damnation to the Eastern Human Race of the Yuan Heaven Realm, this old man will never agree!”
Gu Shengge’s face was extremely grim. He kicked the old man to the ground: “Old bastard, do you think I’m discussing with you? You’re asking for trouble, aren’t you!”
“Ouch!” The old man was kicked to the ground, letting out a wail.
Gu Shengge, however, showed no intention of stopping. He stepped forward and placed his foot on the old man’s chest.
Seeing this, Feng Yuan was astonished. This handsome Young Master had been polite earlier, but how did he suddenly become so brutal?
The crucial thing was, this was his own old father. What if he really beat him to death?
However, his old father was a Void Refining Realm expert, yet he didn’t gain any advantage against this Young Man. At the moment, he didn’t dare to make a Move and could only hastily say to Gu Shengge: “This Young Master, my father is just muddle-headed. Please don’t bother with him.”
Gu Shengge heard this, his gaze chilling: “Of course, I won’t bother with him, but as you said, he is old after all, which is very detrimental to the development of your Eastern world. In that case, such an old man should be eliminated, shouldn’t he? The only question is who will devour him, you or I?”
Facing Gu Shengge’s cold words, Feng Yuan quickly looked at his father.
“Father Emperor, can you pass the throne of the Dongheng Empire to your son?”
Upon hearing this, the old man’s wails immediately stopped. He looked at his son, Feng Yuan, in astonishment, his eyes filled with a complex expression.
His lips trembled, and his old face was full of heartache.
Under his old father’s pained gaze, Feng Yuan suddenly looked at Gu Shengge.
“Dao Child Gu, is there no other way?”
Gu Shengge looked at them indifferently: “There is! As long as your father agrees to send troops and let the Eastern Cultivators rise.”
Feng Yuan looked at his father again: “Father, Jehovah is truly dead. If not for that…”
“Shut up! You unfilial son! If you insist on sending troops, then don’t acknowledge me as your father!”
Feng Yuan’s face was full of unwillingness, but for the sake of his father, he still chose to endure. In his opinion, since he had already waited for so many years, what difference would a few more years make?
Gu Shengge had already heard his true thoughts through his mind-reading ability.
Gu Shengge sighed: “When this Dao Child came to this world, all your destinies had already changed. Feng Yuan, I will ask you one last time, do you really want to give up attacking the Western world?”
Feng Yuan closed his eyes in pain and said in a deep voice, “I give up.”
Gu Shengge said no more. Law energy surged around him. The next moment, space shattered, and he, Jun Mengqing, and Pei Yuhan all fell into a spatial vortex. With a flash of light, the three left the imperial palace.
Feng Yuan stared blankly at the empty ground before him. The three seemed as if they had never appeared, but he vaguely felt that something had quietly changed, and some things seemed to have silently slipped away from his grasp.
But strangely, he didn’t know what it was, only vaguely able to feel it.
The old man, seeing that Gu Shengge and the others had left, finally showed a relieved expression.
“Good son, Jehovah is insidious and cunning. Those guys might have been deliberately sent by Jehovah to test you. You must not fall for it! Otherwise, you might not even be able to inherit Dongheng City in the future!”
