174: Chapter 174 A Feast for Three Families: A Hongmen Banquet? A Test of Lin Feng
The night was still deep.
The Zhao Family underground palace was a river of blood.
Lin Feng stood atop the collapsed blood altar, slowly retracting his Domain.
Around him, the tens of thousands of "blood offerings" that should have been sacrificed were now kneeling on the ground, looking at him with a fanatical gaze as if he were a deity.
"Thank you... Thank you, Immortal, for saving our lives!"
"Mercy, Immortal!"
Lin Feng ignored them.
He simply kicked open the treasury of the underground palace.
Boom!
Immortal crystals, Magic Treasures, and Medicinal Pills were piled up like a mountain!
"Myriad Dao Furnace Sutra!"
Lin Feng was not polite; with a wave of his large hand, he absorbed it like a whale drinking water!
The foundation that the Zhao Family had accumulated over ten thousand years was swallowed clean by him in less than ten breaths!
"Better than nothing."
Lin Feng pouted, feeling the less than one percent increase in his Immortal Qi within his body.
critical hit points were more practical.
He took a step, and his figure vanished from the underground palace.
Only the three hundred newly reborn Loose Cultivators and the mess on the ground remained.
...
Half an hour later.
Liu Family Martial Arts Hall.
"Bang!"
Lin Feng threw a head with eyes wide open in disbelief in front of Liu Ming.
"My Lord, you... you have returned?"
Liu Ming was jolted awake. When he saw the Face on the head on the ground, this Earth Immortal First Layer old man jumped up on the spot!
"Zhao... Zhao... Commander Zhao Wuji?!"
"The Third Elder of the Zhao Family! Earth Immortal Third Layer!"
"My Lord! You... you you you..."
Liu Ming was already incoherent.
"This seat went on a night patrol, and he did not cooperate."
Lin Feng said indifferently, as if he had just gone out and stepped on a cockroach.
"By the way, I wiped out their devilish nest."
"..."
Liu Ming knelt again.
He no longer wanted to know the process.
He only knew that this Inspector had been in the Immortal Realm for less than a day.
His cultivation had soared from Human Immortal Peak to Earth Immortal Fifth Layer.
His battle record had changed from killing the Wang Family captain in the street to...
Sneaking into the Zhao Family at night and killing an Earth Immortal Elder!
"My Lord! You... you are my rebirth parents!"
Liu Ming hugged Lin Feng's thigh and cried his heart out.
"This old dog Commander Zhao Wuji! Back then, he killed thirty-six of my brothers in the Demon Suppression Division! This subordinate... this subordinate dreamed of killing him!"
"Today, you have finally avenged my brothers!"
"Enough."
Lin Feng kicked him away. "What are you crying for? This seat killed him simply because... he was blocking the way."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Liu Ming scrambled up. Now, he was both respectful and afraid of Lin Feng.
"My Lord, that... the Zhao Family, I fear..."
"The sky is about to collapse."
...
Just as Liu Ming expected.
The sky brightened.
But the sky of Baiyu City had collapsed.
When the Zhao Family head, that Old Ancestor of the Heavenly Immortal First Layer, saw the shattered soul tablet belonging to the Third Elder Commander Zhao Wuji in his secret room,
he went mad on the spot!
"Who?! Who exactly is it?!"
"Who exactly is it?!"
A roar filled with endless fury erupted from the Zhao Family mansion, shaking the entire Baiyu City!
An Earth Immortal Elder!
That was not Chinese cabbage!
That was the Zhao Family's strongest combat power besides him!
Just like that, overnight, he died in his own underground palace?!
Along with that "Blood Food Farm" related to the Family's ten-thousand-year grand plan, and that incredibly noble "Heavenly Demon Messenger"...
All of them had vanished into thin air!
"Investigate! Investigate for this old man!"
"Even if you have to turn Baiyu City upside down, you must... drag that murderer out for me!"
The Zhao Family had gone mad.
However, what made them even more furious was yet to come.
"Report! Family Head! It is bad!"
"The Wang Family... and the Li Family people, under the banner of offering condolences, have surrounded our Zhao Family!"
"What?!"
The Zhao Family Old Ancestor almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!
...
Baiyu City, City Lord's Mansion.
At this moment, this place was no longer the territory of the Wang Family.
Instead, it was a joint meeting hall for the three major Families.
Inside the hall, the atmosphere was oppressive to the extreme.
Wang Family Old Ancestor, Wang Teng, Heavenly Immortal Third Layer.
Li Family Old Ancestor, Li Daoxuan, Heavenly Immortal Second Layer.
Zhao Family Old Ancestor, Zhao Wujiang, Heavenly Immortal First Layer.
These three, the local emperors who had ruled the White Jade Immortal State for ten thousand years, sat together so harmoniously for the first time.
Zhao Wujiang's Face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his eyes were so red they were about to drip blood.
"Wang Teng! Li Daoxuan!"
"You two, stop pretending here!"
"My Zhao Family underground palace was destroyed, and my Elder was killed! You two, dare you say it has nothing to do with you?!"
"Brother Zhao, that is incorrect."
Li Daoxuan, that Li Family member who looked like an immortal, drank tea slowly.
"Our three families are connected. Your Zhao Family is in trouble, and my Li Family is also very heartbroken."
"However..."
His tone turned, "I heard that last night, in your underground palace, it seemed... there was Devilish Qi soaring to the sky?"
"You!"
Zhao Wujiang slammed the table!
"Li Daoxuan! How dare you make false accusations!"
"Whether I am making false accusations, you and I both know clearly."
Li Daoxuan sneered.
"Enough, both of you stop talking!"
Wang Teng, the strongest of the Heavenly Immortal Third Layer, finally spoke.
His cloudy old eyes swept over the two.
"Now is not the time for infighting."
"Brother Zhao, regarding the death of your Elder, this old man, probably... knows who did it."
"Who?!" Zhao Wujiang looked up abruptly.
Wang Teng spat out a name word by word.
"That... the one who claims to be the Inspector of the Demon Suppression Division... Lin Feng!"
"What?!"
Zhao Wujiang and Li Daoxuan were both shocked!
"It is him?!"
"Impossible!"
Zhao Wujiang refuted on the spot, "That kid is only at the Human Immortal Peak! He just arrived yesterday! How could he silently kill my Earth Immortal Third Layer Elder and destroy my Heavenly Immortal formation?!"
"Then if..."
A trace of extreme fear flashed in Wang Teng's eyes.
"What if he is not at the Human Immortal Peak?"
"What if he was... hiding his strength yesterday?"
"What if he was working with that dog Liu Ming?"
"..."
Zhao and Li were silent.
"Brother Wang, you mean..."
"That is right."
Wang Teng nodded, his eyes full of murderous intent.
"This child has bad intentions!"
"On his first day, he killed Captain Wang Wu and slapped our three families in the Face in public!"
"On the second day, he went to the Zhao Family at night and ruined our 'Grand Plan'!"
"His goal is very clear!"
"He is a... blade sent by the Immortal Emperor to liquidate our three families!"
"Then what should we do?!" Li Daoxuan was also panicked.
"This child has the Immortal Emperor's supreme treasure to protect him, and even dares to resist my Heavenly Immortal pressure. A head-on confrontation... I fear it will not work."
Wang Teng narrowed his eyes.
"Therefore, this old man has a proposal."
"What proposal?"
"A Hongmen Banquet."
Wang Teng sneered: "Does this child not claim to be an Inspector? Then we will give him that Face!"
"The three families will issue a joint invitation, and tonight, right here in the City Lord's Mansion, we will set up a welcome banquet!"
"We will meet him in person!"
"First, probe his bottom to see if he really is the Immortal Emperor's man."
"Second, if... he really is the Immortal Emperor's man, then we will... accept it!"
"Third, if..."
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Wang Teng's eyes.
"He is just a... liar holding a chicken feather as an arrow..."
"Then tonight, this City Lord's Mansion will be his... burial ground!!"
