Chapter 1902 - 1907: Judge Courting Death
Lin Fei felt this was too ridiculous, right? To actually tell him to stop? What kind of joke is this?
"That’s right, I’m telling you to stop!" Lai Tianhu said coldly.
Unexpectedly, this unruly character was so arrogant and self-important. This is his kingdom, the Kingdom of Aolai; how can it tolerate your presumptuousness? To repeatedly defy his words? It’s as if you’ve eaten a bear’s heart and a leopard’s gall!
Lin Fei chuckled, his words full of disdain, "Dear King, it wasn’t me who struck first. It was the prince who attacked me even after you called to cease action. If I don’t retaliate, it’ll be me who dies, right? Is it only by my death that this matter will end in Perfection?"
Hearing these words, Lai Tianhu smiled slightly, "Smart choice, gentlemen, bestow the sword!" Lai Tianhu spoke up and then ordered someone to present a sword.
Lin Fei looked at the sword, paused, then smiled helplessly and shook his head. This is truly too much; to actually give him a sword? Isn’t this clearly setting him up to die?
"Thank you, King! I never thought the King could be so magnanimous as to forgive me and even grant me a sword. Just what I needed, since I’m short on handy weapons," Lin Fei bowed to Lai Tianhu before putting the sword away.
Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, the surrounding crowd froze. Their thoughts were the same as Lin Fei’s; the sword was actually given to let Lin Fei die, yet he had taken it as a reward? They truly wondered if something was wrong with his brain!
Many looked towards the king, curious to see how he would handle the situation. Although they felt Lin Fei was not wrong, he had nonetheless challenged the king’s authority, which he couldn’t possibly ignore. They watched, knowing that while Lin Fei was seemingly correct, they lacked the qualification to judge.
Everything awaited King Lai Tianhu’s resolution. Lin Fei had already put away the sword as Lai Tianhu surveyed Lin Fei and the two behind him. One was weak, Lin Fei himself was also weak, but the other possessed unfathomable strength, which led him to believe perhaps patience was best for now.
"Haha, no need to thank me. After all, this isn’t entirely your fault. My son also erred. Hence, let’s consider this a sword gifted to a hero and let bygones be bygones." The king spoke.
Lin Fei was surprised but responded calmly, "Thank you for your generosity, King. Truly, King, you are an enlightened Crown Prince!" Lin Fei laughed, though inwardly he felt even more cautious. This King’s ability to tolerate was indeed remarkable, and he needed to be even more careful.
"Alright, this contest is now over. You’re the first, your companion is second, and my second prince is third. That’s it, over." King Lai Tianhu said, then ascended into the sky and vanished from sight.
The crowd was astonished, what happened? The King wouldn’t pursue this? The prince was seriously injured, yet no vengeance? This is too... could they have misunderstood His Majesty’s intentions? Perhaps His Majesty is exceedingly tolerant indeed? Never planned on causing Lin Fei trouble in the first place?
Despite thinking this way, the public understood things weren’t truly like this, knowing well enough about His Majesty’s character, His Majesty’s broadness is not so mighty, thus they could hardly believe this to be true.
But even if disbelief persisted, what could they do? His Majesty genuinely didn’t mind, this was indeed the reality.
"Contest’s over, evacuate!"
The judge commanded, then glancing coldly at Lin Fei, descended from the platform.
Lin Fei laughed and spoke up, "Wait a minute, Judge." Lin Fei called out.
The judge furrowed his brow, turned his head in annoyance, yet saw a fist rapidly expanding towards him. He froze for a moment and in a short instant, the fist connected with his face, sending him flying. The crowd preparing to leave was stunned, what is this? A post-meal ’dessert?’
The crowd was baffled by what happened, while Lin Fei coldly stated, "Judge, your extra expressions and demeanor are unnecessary, let me help you rectify that."
Though the judge’s strength wasn’t bad, his role required determining winners and losers. Without strength, how would he stop opponents? Hence, this judge was True Body Realm, First Transition, certainly stronger than Lin Fei, but this time under such unexpected attack, he couldn’t bear it, quickly stood up, furiously glaring at Lin Fei.
Lin Fei scoffed at the judge in front, speaking up, "What’s wrong, Judge? Look at yourself now, just left with anger on your face, no longer provoking thought, no longer condescending, isn’t this much better? Don’t you agree?"
Hearing Lin Fei’s taunts, the judge grew even angrier, and the surrounding crowd watched Lin Fei in awe. Unbelievable that Lin Fei dared hit a judge, and if hitting wasn’t enough, he hurled provoking remarks at the judge, truly impressive, leaving the crowd wondering if Lin Fei didn’t care for life?
However, evidently, Lin Fei wasn’t afraid of death. Stood confidently upon the arena, smiling at the judge.
At this moment, the judge suddenly struck out, he could bear no more, he wanted to end Lin Fei to show him judges are not easy prey, also illustrating that Lin Fei’s significance to the kingdom was negligible!
At this point, the judge charged toward Lin Fei in anger, his speed rapid and methods fierce, with torrents of Primordial Power like a waterfall from the heavens, crashing down on Lin Fei.
The crowd was shocked, this judge truly aimed to kill, otherwise his attacks wouldn’t be this intense. It seemed he genuinely couldn’t tolerate Lin Fei, yet perhaps due to the King, the judge dared such boldness!
But it was clear that Lin Fei now genuinely wasn’t his match, and the opponent intended to ensure Lin Fei’s demise, leaving Lin Fei helpless, yet at the most crucial moment, unexpectedly turned away!?
"Seeking death!"
At that instant, the judge fully realized Lin Fei’s arrogance, his disregard, practically treating him as air, determined to tear him limb from limb to vent this hatred!
As he was about to strike Lin Fei, suddenly behind Lin Fei appeared a man. Covered entirely in fur, resembling a monkey, yet he wasn’t a monkey. Clothed in ordinary attire, boots, appearing identical to a human.
To outsiders, Hou Qitian was simply an extraordinarily hairy human, not a monkey.
