Chapter 1065 - 1018: Killing the Lord of Liuguang City (Part 1)
Chu Linfeng cast a sideways glance at the Flame Immortal Monarch and said, "Don’t underestimate him. Even if he wants to kill you, it would only take an instant. However, he’s my little brother, so naturally, he won’t harm you."
The Flame Immortal Monarch was deeply shocked, truly unable to comprehend where Chu Linfeng got this terrifying bird, especially with its unbelievably fast speed.
At this moment, the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion and the two Immortal Monarchs, including that woman, were all slain by the Golden Demon Vulture, lying on the ground with blood flowing everywhere, stunning everyone in Liuguang City with such earth-shattering occurrences.
Curiosity about this mysterious youth’s identity grew ever stronger, with discussions erupting everywhere. Meanwhile, a few people in the crowd sent out transmissions, emitting flashes of light. Yet Chu Linfeng was indifferent to those sending messages; rather, he hoped the City Lord of Liuguang City would come so he could test his present strength.
Chu Linfeng’s actions might be a bit excessive, but his true target was Shangguan Ruhuo. Still, in this world where the strong prey on the weak, strength equates to true power, and no one dares even to utter half a word of defiance against you.
Chu Linfeng then said to the Flame Immortal Monarch, "Flame, soon the City Lord of Liuguang City will arrive. You should leave for a while; he’s a powerhouse of the Immortal Emperor Realm. I wouldn’t want him to kill you—don’t blame me for not warning you."
"Do you really intend to face Zhang Liuguang? He’s at the Mid-stage Immortal Emperor level. If you aren’t confident, you’d better escape quickly!" the Flame Immortal Monarch said in terror.
"Escape? Right now, I have no plans to run. I fled last time in New Capital City; it made me feel quite embarrassed. So this time, I won’t flee. I just want to see what realm my current strength has reached; otherwise, I’ll lack confidence fighting Shangguan Ruhuo," Chu Linfeng replied.
The Flame Immortal Monarch couldn’t remain calm. Shangguan Ruhuo possesses Late Stage Immortal Emperor power, a rarity in the Immortal Realm. Even the Domain Lord of Emperor Wu Spirit Realm, Nangong Ming, couldn’t confidently defeat him. Yet, Chu Linfeng wanted to kill him—it sounded like madness, causing wonder if his mind was failing, but none dared to voice it.
Chu Linfeng then inquired, "Why haven’t I seen your Domain Lord or anyone from the Dream-Spirit Sacred Domain? Also, I haven’t noticed anyone from the Profound Celestial Pavilion or Xuanyuan Emperor Palace here—what’s going on?"
Just as the Flame Immortal Monarch was about to speak, several shadows appeared in the sky. Among them was a middle-aged man brimming with killing intent, who harshly shouted, "You dare kill people from my City Lord’s Mansion? You’re not taking me seriously at all. Who are you? If you tell the truth, I may let you die whole."
Chu Linfeng told the Flame Immortal Monarch, "Make sure to protect yourself; I’ll go meet this so-called Immortal Emperor." Saying this, he swiftly flew into the air.
After all, fighting in Liuguang City could likely destroy the entire city with numerous casualties. Committing too much slaughter now would negatively impact one’s disposition and future ascension to the Divine Realm, especially since these people were innocent, and he saw no need to kill them.
"You aren’t worthy of knowing who I am. However, your people in Liuguang City blindly attempted to kill me, so they deserved to die. You are the City Lord of Liuguang? Your power isn’t bad at all, reaching Mid-stage Immortal Emperor level. Young Master here can have a good time with you," Chu Linfeng laughed.
His words shook everyone, wondering if this youth was ill—for spouting such things, he’s either foolish or insane, daring to challenge a super powerhouse at the Mid-stage Immortal Emperor Realm. Not even twenty lives would suffice against such a foe.
Lord of Liuguang City, Zhang Liuguang, was infuriated after hearing Chu Linfeng’s words; flashing his silhouette, he directly attacked Chu Linfeng bare-handed.
Yet Chu Linfeng was not to be outdone; the opponent’s strike was hastily executed, with at most eight parts of strength. Therefore, he responded with eight parts of strength, quickly executing a Demon-Breaking Fist without infusing any Elemental Power—pure Chaotic Immortal Power.
If he integrated his current Fire Element Molecules at most, would it burn the opponent’s fists clean? His aim was merely to gauge the gap between them.
Seeing Chu Linfeng dare contend with bare fists, Zhang Liuguang felt frustration—this youth utterly disrespects him. Such a clueless and reckless youth who needs killing to relieve one’s heart’s hatred.
Soon, their fists collided producing a loud bang resounding through the sky, enveloping Zhang Liuguang’s men in a mighty Energy Storm. These men are robust Late Stage Immortal Monarch Realm powerhouses, among them, one being at the Early-stage Immortal Emperor Realm.
Though the Energy Storm couldn’t harm them, it left them slightly disheveled, prompting them to rush an escape, while Chu Linfeng and Zhang Liuguang swiftly retreated.
Chu Linfeng noticed he flew about ten meters farther than the opponent, realizing internally his current Chaotic Immortal Power was roughly at Mid-stage Immortal Emperor level, still maintaining a gap from the Late Stage Immortal Emperor.
Yet Zhang Liuguang stared at Chu Linfeng like a monster; unexpectedly this youth’s attack power was formidable enough to fight him to a draw—it was simply incredible. "Who exactly are you? I, Zhang Liuguang, have no issues with you. Why trouble me?"
"Because I enjoy it! I like it! I just wanted to spar with you. One fight alone isn’t enough; better unleash your strongest attack. If you’re afraid of wrecking Liuguang City, we can change the location. I wonder if you have the guts, as someone at Mid-stage Immortal Emperor shouldn’t fear." Chu Linfeng grinned.
"You’re incredibly audacious, punk, with some brute force aiming to overturn the world. I’ll accompany you till the end!" Zhang Liuguang exclaimed. Though this punk’s attack wasn’t weak, he believes he’s still the superior; moreover, he possesses a powerful Magical Treasure.
Chu Linfeng’s silhouette flashed above a valley thousands of miles away, with Zhang Liuguang following close behind, along with some death-defying spectators enjoying the scene.
"It is best to give everything in your attack; otherwise, you’ll regret it. You should use the Magical Treasure, or else you’ll lose the chance," Chu Linfeng said.
What’s intolerable becomes intolerable. Chu Linfeng’s utter disregard drove Zhang Liuguang to frenzy, "You’re arrogant, punk. I’ll show you the cost of arrogance." Immediately a red long sword appeared in his hand...
