916: 915: Chance Encounter 916: 915: Chance Encounter You are a Divine Emperor!
Li Ziyan hurriedly threw out a Defense Talisman to save his life.
Boom!
The Vajra Corpse Puppet’s punch landed on the Defense Talisman, and it was actually blocked.
He was slightly surprised.
Looks like you managed to acquire an Ancient Defense Talisman, but this won’t save your life.
The Vajra Corpse Puppet was about to strike again, but to his surprise, after that single block, Li Ziyan decisively retreated back into the City Lord Mansion.
He instantly made the decision to leave.
The foundation could be recaptured in the future, but a life could not be replaced.
He instructed his family to quickly evacuate through the Transmission Array.
The Vajra Corpse Puppet hadn’t expected such decisiveness from that young man.
As expected of a City Lord, his decisions bore no hesitation or delay.
After they left, the defense was broken by the Vajra Corpse Puppet.
From this mont on, the City Lord Mansion was his.
“You’re still part of the City Guard.
Go summon the Family Heads of all the families in the city.” He intended to make an example out of them and profit handsoly.
“Understood.” Guan Zhong imdiately knew what this old monster intended to do next—establish dominance and demand benefits.
Probably no one would dare to disobey, or their life would be forfeit.
In the eyes of this old monster, human lives were nothing but trifles.
This was the rule that the strong followed—if you were strong enough, you could do anything you wanted.
He wanted to beco stronger.
Perhaps this was an opportunity.
His encounters with powerhouses stirred a fire in his heart.
In the past, he had never taken advantage of his position to gain benefits, but he wouldn’t be so foolish anymore.
Not only would he take advantage, but he would reap as much as he could.
He inford the City Guard to summon all the Family Heads and then began recruiting people himself to get the City Lord Mansion operational again.
In front of the old monster, he needed to prove his indispensability.
Otherwise, if anyone else could do his job, his own life might be short-lived.
Heading to the Trading House to recruit workers, Guan Zhong spotted Tang Feng walking not far away.
Terrified, he imdiately turned around, his heart beating wildly, “Please, don’t notice .”
He silently prayed as his body hastily moved in the opposite direction.
Suddenly, soone tapped him on the shoulder.
“Upper God.” He turned around to see an astonished face.
“Brother Guan, what happened to you?”
“Oh, Yang Family Master, it’s nothing.” His expression eased, and his eyes scanned the surroundings.
Only when he confird that Tang Feng was nowhere to be seen did he finally relax.
“Brother Guan, your face doesn’t look good.
Are you feeling unwell?”
“Really, it’s nothing.
Let’s go.” He walked away imdiately, unwilling to linger there any longer.
Yang Tong quickly followed, “Brother Guan, could you give so insight as to why the City Lord has summoned ?”
“Brother Yang, you should prepare yourself ntally.
You might need to offer up so resources.
In short, take care of yourself.” Guan Zhong sighed heavily.
“Wait, Brother Guan, don’t scare .
Wasn’t everything fine before?
Why does a breakthrough suddenly require extra resources?” Yang Tong asked anxiously.
“Because the City Lord has changed.
City Lord Li has fled.
The new City Lord is a Divine Emperor Realm powerhouse.”
Ah!
Yang Tong was shocked.
A Divine Emperor Realm expert?
Was this Divine Realm about to enter a turbulent era?
First, there were reports of Ancient Fierce Beasts reappearing, and now Divine Emperor Realm experts were rising—would even stronger figures erge later?
“Should I flee as well?” Yang Tong muttered.
“Brother Yang, I advise you not to run.
A great era is upon us.
As long as you offer up so resources, your safety should be assured.
After all, the new City Lord doesn’t seem to be after lives.” Guan Zhong suggested.
Whether Yang Tong would listen was beyond his control.
Yang Tong pondered for a mont and decided to et the new City Lord first.
If things got too difficult, he could always run.
If he couldn’t survive here, there were always other cities.
In tis like these, as long as you had resources, you could thrive anywhere.
At the Trading House, Tang Feng was busy purchasing herbs.
He bought everything he needed in one go.
Upon leaving, he noticed the three won staring off in a particular direction, lost in thought.
He walked over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“We just saw the City Guard Captain.
It seed like he noticed us,” one of the won said, a bit worried.
“Don’t worry.
He wouldn’t dare act recklessly unless he has a death wish.
Let’s go to the next Trading House and continue shopping.”
The three won followed Tang Feng as he shopped tirelessly.
When they were tired, they found a restaurant to sit down and eat.
Ever since erging from the Secret Realm, they had finally started moving past their trauma.
When they returned to the Holy Divine Palace’s garrison, they passed along the news to their Sect.
However, for the ti being, they wanted to stay with Tang Feng.
They didn’t know how to face their Master and the senior mbers of their Sect yet.
They hoped to grow stronger so they could avenge their senior brothers and sisters.
Of course, this seed like a hopeless dream.
If even Tang Feng wasn’t a match for that old monster, even cultivating for tens of thousands of years might not make them a match for the Vajra Corpse Puppet.
However, Tang Feng wasn’t planning to take them along.
He still had things to do.
He instructed them to head to Divine Martial City and start a business there to gather information about Divine Martial’s current state for him.
Of course, he didn’t send them alone.
He gave them twelve Divine Puppets, all at the Peak of the God King Realm.
Their strength was far beyond normal standards because they were willing to sacrifice themselves at any mont, unleashing an explosion equivalent to a peak God Emperor strike.
This might sound exaggerated, but it was true.
Tang Feng had installed explosive formations within them.
He had tested the power himself—it was exceptionally potent.
With these Divine Puppets as their protectors, the three won’s safety should be assured.
Additionally, Tang Feng gave them other items, such as Defense Runes, Array Bases, and even Divine Beasts.
Three Purple Gold Dragon Eagles.
Seeing the majestic and imposing Dragon Eagles, the three won beca ecstatic.
They touched and examined them, utterly smitten.
After officially bonding with the beasts, they stored them away.
Each of the won now bore a divine and striking totem on her arm.
The totems looked indomitable.
Unable to contain themselves, the won rewarded Tang Feng with a kiss on the cheek.
Tang Feng graciously accepted.
Over ti, he had grown closer to them and was no longer reserved, instead becoming quite relaxed around them.
After touring the entire Golden City, Tang Feng let the three won leave.
eting was fate, and parting was natural.
Despite their reluctance, the three won departed.
They knew that staying would only hinder him instead of helping.
The trio made a pact to train diligently on their journey, hoping to achieve breakthroughs by the ti they reached Divine Martial City.
With the Divine Pills Tang Feng had provided, it was enough to advance them another level.
After sending off the three won, Tang Feng headed to the City Lord Mansion.
Before leaving, he intended to reap so rewards.
Unexpectedly, once inside, he detected the aura of the Vajra Corpse Puppet.
Curiosity prompted him to investigate, and to his surprise, he saw the old monster in the main hall eting with a group of individuals who, judging by their attire, seed either wealthy or noble.
Tang Feng stayed to eavesdrop.
As the conversation progressed, he couldn’t help but smirk.
This guy had scared the previous City Lord into fleeing, taken over as the new City Lord, and begun extracting resources—perfect, absolutely perfect.
This was going to benefit Tang Feng imnsely.
After leaving the City Lord Mansion, Tang Feng checked into a room at Pinxiang Pavilion.
The reason for choosing this location?
The Oiran.
It was said that top-level Oirans perford here from ti to ti.
If you were lucky, you might even catch their favor, share a drink, or possibly sothing more intimate.
Tang Feng took up residence on the third floor, reserved for top-tier guests, at the cost of three thousand Divine Crystals a night.
Truly a goldmine.
Seeing how quickly money ca in here, Tang Feng couldn’t help but consider the Divine Crystals, activating his Divine Sense to envelop the entire Pinxiang Pavilion.
About an hour later, a group arrived in the rear courtyard.
The manager of Pinxiang Pavilion handed them two Divine Rings, which, without a doubt, contained resources.
Tang Feng teleported after them.
Just as they were about to step into the bustling streets, Tang Feng made his move.
In an instant, like a gust of wind, he secured the two rings and returned to Pinxiang Pavilion in the blink of an eye.
Opening the rings, he was delighted to find over a million Divine Crystals along with countless treasures and resources.
It was clearly the accumulated wealth of the establishnt, handed over on this very day—only to fall into his hands.
Stashing the rings away, he sat back to enjoy the performance.
Just then, he noticed a familiar figure, who also seed to have gotten themselves into so trouble.
