Chapter 514: One Mustn’t be Too Chu Feng

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

On the Fangzhang Islands, the people’s bodies were rigid as though they had been petrified. They’d suffered a serious blow!

The Deity Clan nobleman that they had made a supreme effort to befriend, the genius of the top “Ten Greats”, was unexpectedly a henchman’s son. They simply hadn’t thought of this.

They’d lowered themselves with a smile and married off their daughter; their attitude was placed very low and was even as though they were bending and scraping to curry favor. This had all been done in order to create a good relationship with the Ten Greats and establish favorable karma with this genius.

Yet what had they obtained in the end!?

The genius’s true identity was, to their surprise, the descendant of a henchman and a so-called servant’s child both in name and in reality.

“This… Young Noble Yu, how can he be…” The color on the maid Ruo Lan’s pretty face faded. She was on the verge of collapsing and could hardly bear this result.

She had always longed to follow Princess Qing Qi as she entered the Ten Greats. She had been incomparably proactive, and her heart was even more set on this than Qing Qi’s. In the end, though, the one she had been waiting for was a servant’s son?

On the Fangzhang Islands, a shade of green appeared between the foreheads of Li Kai, one of the deputy island masters and that of the several old, grey-haired monsters. Their faces were twitching slightly and they were in an awful mood.

If one were to trace them back to their roots, they were the same as the remnant races of Penglai—servants of Earth’s orthodox bloodlines. They too were counted as servants, and although they now considered themselves to be an orthodox lineage, in the end, they still had a thorn in their hearts.

Thus they wanted to turn a new page and were unwilling to touch this status again. The reason they didn’t hesitate to modestly marry off their daughter was because they wanted approval by connecting themselves with the strongest race in space.

How could they have foreseen such an unexpected result!

The so-called nobleman was only the son of a servant on the Deity Planet. This was a serious blow to them. Their princess was to be married to a servant!?

To them, this was yet another stab of pain that made them think back to their own past.

Back then, their ancestors were only servants. They had been taught top-notch martial arts and were granted everything as they followed that group of masters. The planet was ranked eleventh in the entire cosmos, and for this, they felt supreme glory.

However, after so many years they were no longer recognized. Their ambitions had long since grown after possessing everything, and that group of masters from the olden days had already perished. They had already moved on and wanted to replace them.

Everything that group of masters who had died in battle left behind was entrusted to them in hopes that they would give it to the appropriate descendants. But now, the people of the Fangzhang Islands did not want to hand them over.

There was no doubt that if the so-called orthodox descendants came searching, they would mercilessly kill them and cover their traces. They would absolutely betray them.

Today, they had suffered multiple blows. They were searching for a supporter, and had eliminated the remnant orphans to prevent the emergence of an “old master”. But the end result was like this.

Chu Feng’s hearty laughter was exceptionally ear-piercing to them. It made their faces go dark and change to an ashen color. They did not hesitate to marry off the island’s princess, and in the end, they had found themselves a servant.

How would others see this? Perhaps it was a bit ironic.

After Princess Qing Qi learned of Yu Jiubian’s true identity, her slender body burst into a fit of tremor. She had suffered a hard blow. Her heart’s longing and her various fantasies had all been crushed.

Once Chu Feng finished laughing, he couldn’t be bothered to pay any attention to the people of the Fangzhang Islands. He only shot them a glance and proceeded to ignore them.

There wasn’t anything more to say about this kind of matter. Everyone felt that the Fangzhang Islands had lost a ton of face this time. They put their heart and soul into climbing to the highest branches, yet in the end, they became a joke.

Of course, strictly speaking, it was not considered excessive to marry a Deity Clan servant. After all, many people were willing to do this in order to find support.

However, they had prematurely brought the matter out into the open, saying that they were going to marry a nobleman of the Deity Clan and claiming he was a young and an important figure. To initially make such a statement and then be exposed was fairly awkward.

“Keep a low profile. When conducting yourself, you have to keep a low profile. You can’t be so brash, otherwise, it will be disastrous!” Chu Feng was lecturing Yuan Mo, Zi Luan, and the others.

The four demonic son, saintess, and divine son-level characters all wanted to huff at him as they listened. You have the nerve to speak of keeping a low profile after all you’ve done!?

“One cannot be too Chu Feng!” said Yuan Mo angrily.

“Stay off to the side and chop meat for me!” Chu Feng glared and instantly dumbfounded them.

“Low-key, reserved Demon King Chu, when will you send out the goods? Don’t delay again.” A group of people on the Origin Beast Platform were mocking and urging him.

“Immediately!” replied Chu Feng, after which he berated Zi Luan saying, “Don’t be like a pampered girl from an affluent family. You have to move swiftly when you chop meat and scrape bones!”

Zi Luan twisted her small waist and closed her eyes as she brandished the knife. How was this like cutting meat? She was clearly enduring torture, just like a punching bag.

“What interest does that young god behind you have? In the past I never wronged him, and in recent days there is no hatred, so why has that foolish bird fixed his eyes on me?” Chu Feng asked Yu Jiubian.

The people were petrified when they heard what was said. Who would dare to refer to a descendant of the Deity Clan bloodline as a stupid bird? It was simply… soaring to new heights of conceitedness.

Was this contempt for the descendants of the Deity clan?

This wasn’t the first time Chu Feng had heard the words “young god”. Fu Huang had previously said that a young god in the cosmos had already ordered Chu Feng’s death.

That kind of tone and that kind of posture were seriously aloof and remote. It was like a monarch among evolvers had given a decree ordering Chu Feng to commit suicide!

Now, Yu Jiubian had even come in person to carry out those orders and kill Chu Feng.

“Because you were born on this planet, your birth is in itself a kind of crime. The young god is not fond of you so he will eliminate you!” Yu Jiubian spoke in a cold and detached voice.

This really was a tyrannical reason. He wasn’t fond of you, so you had to die. It was extremely bossy and domineering. However, upon careful consideration, there was another reason. Because earth was conquered back in the day and reportedly people from the Ten Greats had led the campaign in secret.

Back then it could be said that the Deity Clan’s hands were dripping with blood. Their highest ranks manifested themselves and fought the heaven-illuminating masters of Earth at close quarters.

“This bullshit young god, I’m not too fond of him either. If you have the guts to come over, I’ll pluck your head from your neck!”

Chu Feng pointed towards the firmament and faced the starry skies with a cold expression. He’d sent out a challenge. It doesn’t matter if you’re a young god of the Deity Clan or a dao child, if you really dare to come, I’ll chop you up all the same!

Next, Yu Jiubian’s lips opened and closed as he transmitted with his weak spirit, saying, “Chu Feng, you won’t survive. This time you have the cheek to mess with Lan Shi, the woman the young god cares about. Originally you could have struggled on death’s door for a time, but now you’ve hastened your death!”

He hadn’t said it in the open but rather informed Chu Feng in silence. This wasn’t done out of good intentions; rather, he wanted to provoke Chu Feng and make him further attack Lan Shi. This would make the young god furious and attack him thunderously, killing him a bit earlier in bloody revenge.

Chu Feng stared blankly upon hearing this. The rising star from the Heavenly Music holy land was indeed exceptionally good-looking, and she had the potential to become the universe’s most popular star. Now, that young god had become fond of her?

His expression was strange. He’d accidentally had grievances with this new star, but now it was proving to be a disaster.

However, he then smiled. He was just about to contact Lan Shi to talk about all sorts of matters. As soon as the negotiations failed, he would auction off the celebrity Lan Shi’s “inner armor” in space. This would certainly create a huge stir and probably drive that young god crazy.

“Hehe…” Chu Feng started laughing to himself, causing everyone to be confused.

Lan Shi, who was the only one paying attention to this matter, had goosebumps appear all over her body. Her spiritual power was rarely matched among her generation, and her perception was extremely keen. She felt pure malice.

Chu Feng couldn’t ask anything more of Yu Jiubian and he didn’t want to humiliate him. He slapped him dead with one palm and then made the four process the “merchandise”.

The lamentable Yu Jiubian had attracted everyone’s attention when he came. His whole body was resplendent and his golden hair danced in the wind like a young deity. Now he was still attracting attention, but he had been reduced to meat products. The contrast was too large.

Many people were sighing in myriad sorrows. Earth was truly a place of high mountains and distant emperors. It was too dangerous for each family’s descendants to go. How many things had happened there?

There was nothing more to be said about being killed. They might also be kidnapped and have no choice but to be blackmailed. Now, even people from the Ten Greats were unable to escape. He had been struck down and was being sold as meat!

Up in space, people everywhere were in a complicated state of mind. Some people clapped their hands in joy while others gnashed their teeth in anger.

It was clear that Chu Feng was a wanton and unrestrained rebel in the eyes of some evolutionary sects. In the eyes of others, though, he was an infamous human trafficker, a butcher, and a person who dared challenge the rules.

“He will die miserably. As soon as he steps foot into space, he will certainly be killed in an instant. Those old monsters are all ruthless and heartless. They could eliminate an entire planet without batting an eye!”

“Yes, he doesn’t necessarily need to leave that planet. I suspect that the Deity Planet won’t stand for this, and the Xilin Race will also be furious. Saints from all over have been repeatedly offended and will certainly attack!”

Many people in the starry skies were discussing this matter. They felt that Earth would soon experience a difficult and dangerous situation. Some proud sons of heaven of the highly-ranked, peerless races would most likely descend and kill Chu Feng.

This was because he had created too large of a disturbance!

Quickly, Chu Feng found a folded space near the Fangzhang Islands. He had Wormhole Express come pick up the goods and ship 15000 kilograms of Deity clan meat.

不得不说,通天快递太逆天了,就在当日,附近星空中的生命星球上就有人接到货物.

One had to admit that the Heaven-Piercing Express was too heaven-defying. Someone from a nearby vital star had received the goods that very same day.

“Oh heavens! This is truly delicious. What a delicacy! The Deity Race’s meat is too tasty!”

Someone sighed in admiration and offered endless praises.

The starry sky was no longer calm. There was a huge commotion.

Afterwards, those from the nearby star systems received their packages in succession and the process was exceptionally smooth. They immediately began complimenting the meat and gave it the highest evaluation.

“Not bad. It’s even tastier than the golden arhat level bird king I had eaten back then. It’s indeed a rare delicacy. This old man is satisfied. Little friend Chu Feng, do you have any more Deity Race meat? I want 1000 kilograms of it. This time I plan to invite guests over and this meat will be the main course.”

Apparently, this was an old monster with terrifying strength.

There was no shortage of such characters. In truth, all those who bought the Deity Race meat weren’t simple. Otherwise, who would spend pay such an exorbitant price just to fill their stomachs.

“Oh, how wondrous! It can be considered the best delicacy in the universe. This old man is finding it very enjoyable. As expected, the Deity Race meat is truly a treasured meat!”

A group of old monsters and a group of madmen made such comments and induced a round of heated discussions. This kicked up great tidal waves which shook every corner of the universe. The price of the Deity race meat soared to outrageous heights as everyone sought to buy some.

Chu Feng fanned the flames by saying, “Treating important guests to Deity Race meat is a show of great sincerity!”

“A friend who invites you to eat Deity Race meat. What kind of friendship is this? It’s worth cherishing for a lifetime!”

“A lover who invites you to eat Deity Race meat. What else is there to worry about? If he dares betray you, you need only to tell the Deity Race. Now a true-love touchstone has appeared! Have him or her invite you to eat Deity meat!”

Chu Feng’s advertisement caused everyone to be flabbergasted. Many people began cursing him in succession.

It’s all fine if you have extra meat. We can all place orders. But it’s quite despicable to be advertising like so when you’re sold out.

This was especially true for some young men and women. Some of them really hoped to try out this touchstone of love while others really wanted to slaughter Chu Feng.

Regardless, the Deity Race meat was now explosively popular.

At this moment, the entities on the Deity planet had caught wind of this matter. They were originally quite detached from the sea of stars and stayed rather aloof. They found it beneath them to pay attention to these matters. But now they had no choice because it involved them.

“Courting death!” That young god shattered his entire cave residence with a palm strike after hearing about this matter. He exited his isolated cultivation in fury.

Today, Chu Feng had less than 5000 kilograms of Deity Race meat left. He had sold over four billion cosmic dollars worth of merchandise.

He was once again regretful and felt that he had sold too early and earned too little.

“I have so many cosmic dollars and now I can buy some rare treasures. Like that Deity Elixir from the black market and certain secret volumes.” Chu Feng’s face was full of smiles. He was extremely delighted.

“I say, Deity Race young god, you should come over quickly. I need to sell more meat and I’m guessing yours should sell for an even greater price!” He announced thus that day.

At the same time, he shouted, “Wei Heng, you Jun Tuo egg. Have you thought clearly? Will you or will you not accept my challenge?!”

Jun Tuo had distanced himself from these matters and thought he had finally escaped this vortex. But now his face grew dark and he wanted to curse out loud. “Haven’t you set your sights on the Deity Race? Why can’t you forget me? You keep mentioning me all the time. Goddammit! You’re courting death!”

In truth, the ruckus on the starry sky was too big and all parties had been alarmed. A true tide was imminent and certain terrifying heroes were about to set out.

Some heavenly genius level characters were coming to earth!

Meanwhile, the so-called number nine in the starry skies finally replied.

The era of surging wind and waves was nigh!

Chu Feng ignored all of that and was prepared to head to Mount Eternal to visit Yellow Ox and the others. How were they doing now? And he was also planning to use the Deity Elixir there and evolve once again. He had to progress his dao and grow stronger!
